In 1894, seven wards left San Quentin to spend the rest of their sentences at the new State reform school in Ione. It didn't take much for the courts to commit a boy to the Preston School of Industry. Career criminals accounted for a major portion of the population, but orphans, vagrants, and children whose parents could no longer care for them also called the facility on the hill their home. Some wards made headline news, like Joseph Cretzer in his escape attempt from Alcatraz; others became celebrities, like movie idol Rory Calhoun, he was known as Francis McCown while he was at Preston; some even became popular authors and screenwriters like Ernest G. Booth. Enjoy these stories about some of the wards who walked the halls of the Preston School of Industry. History of Preston School of Industry -- Stories of the wards Volume 1.
