COM MEMORATION
Two hundred years ago in the 'lO1d
Dominionv of Virginia, George Washington
Was born. In honor of that event our nation
in this year of 1932 is observing special
commemoration in which are reviewed the
qualities, thoughts, hopes, ambitions and
achievements of that magnificent personal-
ity. From his deeds the students and faculty
of this high school, as do all good American
citizens, experience a thrill of pride in our
history, inspiration to better the tasks at our
hand, and strengthen hope in the increasing
glory of our United States. 1 1 1 1

SAN FRANCISCO BAY region has been
chosen by the staff of the 1932 ACORN as
the motif around which to build this
yearbook. The selection Was due to its
intimate relationship to the island and
city of Alameda.
The staff has tried to summarize the
events of the school year 1931-1932 in
graphic history. If, in addition to pres-
ent acceptance this Volume is used for
future reference to refresh pleasant
memories of student life, the staff will
feel greatly rewarded.

THE MEETINGS of the fall term of 1931
were highly diversified in their endeavor.
They ranged from the purely intellectual,
i. e., the Wliite Brothers' presentation on
Chinese Art, to the purely physical, repre-
sented by an exotic little scrap by a
Japanese Judo Team.
Several orchestras contortionized for us,
but the one that remains in our mind was
Jack Souder's Grand Lake Band. Thus, even
the most unimaginative crud can at least, in
a measure, visualize the gigantic scope of
our Assembly programs-from the spec-
tacular to the soul stirringg from the bizarre
to the joyously super-animated.
HORACE MILLER,
Recording Secretary.

THE INSTALLATION of the Spring, 1932,
administration brought many Varied student
meetings, the majority of which had a lean-
ing toward adventure.
"Bolos and Bullets", an exciting Philip-
pine subject Which had as its teller, Colonel
White, who has appeared here on previous
occasions. 0ther meetings of this nature
included: Sir Hubert Williens' story of his
polar submarine expedition, and Father
Bernard Hubbard, the Glacier Priest, and
his Alaska Volcano thriller.
The Julean Arnold Forum Debate, School
Talent Day, and the political convention,
were the other important meetings of the
Spring term.

ON JUNE 2, 1932, we will cease to be students of Alameda High
School, but the memories of pleasant days Will never be forgotten.
The graduates will leave, some to attend institutions of higher learn-
ing, and others to start in business. But always they will look back and
remember that their fundamental training was acquired at Alameda
High School.
We were led in our Freshman year by Bob Castro and Eddie Eckhardt,
and Walter Grazzini and Dale Peak took the reins in the second year.
Eddie Eckhardt and Irving Leheney took the wheel when We "grad-
uated" to the coveted "upperclass" position.
In our Senior year Wendell Littleton and Bob Gardiner were chosen
to run our school year. This they did Well. Kenneth Richardson and
Eric Roby managed the Senior Play and Seniorpheum, respectively.

THE TIME DRAWS NEAR for us to leave you. One short term remains
for us to grace these "halls of learningf' Surely no other class has made
such record-breaking history as has the class of December, 1932.
As High Freshmen, we inaugurated a new idea with our 1-B party
which turned out quite profitably. A skating party was given in our
Sophomore year which again was a great success. The Prom which we
gave in our High Junior year was known as the "Circus Promf, This
Prom was unique and set a new high standard for the ones to follow.
The idea of entertainment at a Prom was introduced by us, and met
with success.
Our Senior play, "Nathan Hale," proved conclusively that the Class
of December, 1932, is capable of success artistically, as well as financially.
Throughout our career We have various entertainments to our credit
which certainly spell success to the class.

Alameda Hymn
Men who Wear che Gold and White,
Men who hear the call to Hght,
Battle now for School and right.
On to victory!
Myriad fields of conflict Won
Stand behind, and like the sun,
Brighten future paths to run.
On to victory!
Let this legend ever stand,
While in conflicts, which command
Strength and courage, sturdy band.
On to victory!
Gold and White the standard raise
Let its motto brighter blaze
Ever to the end of days.
On to Victory!

THE SUCCESS of our class, the Class of June '33, has been and will
continue to be based on full co-operation of every member of the class.
Two dansants were given in the past year by our class. Both dan-
sants Were managed by Homer Helmstein. Large prohts were received.
In athletics, our boys have been most outstanding. They, have par-
ticipated in football, basketball, swimming and track. T
The most important event for all past and future Junior classes is
the Junior Prom. Our class gave one of the most unique proms in
the history of Alameda High School. This prom was under the able
management of Lyle Guslander. We must also pay a Word of thanks to
Mr. Goldman and the High Junior advisers, who helped to make our
prom a success. a
In all, the Class of June ,35 has proven itself Worthy to take its stand
t t L 'ors. .

How SHORT the past two years have seemed! At last we are Juniors.
No longer lower classmen, but still able to call Alameda High School
our own for several terms to come.
We have been piloted through the first years of our high school career
by very able leaders, and many of our class have taken an active part in
athletics, clubs, and other activities.
Our most recent dansant was a novel and successful affair, and our
coming Junior Prom, already being planned, promises to be unusual.
With so much to look back on and so much to look forward to, we
have decided that the position of being Juniors is one that gives us plea-
sure, pride and profit.

THE CLASS OF JUNE, 1934, has so far been guided successfully
through three terms by three of the ablest leaders. Dick Reilly led our
class last term in a splendid Way, with the help of his officers and the co-
operation of the class. This term there is a decided change in the class,
for a girl, Jean Thomas, was chosen to fill the office of president.
Last term We held a dansant under the able management of Carl
Teideman. This dansant was a success and We netted quite a profit.
So far in sports our class has been outstanding. We are Well repre-
sented in baseball and football, and for interclass activities We are always
on top as far as turnouts are concerned.
Our class meetings have been both entertaining and business-like.
We have had talented pupils who were so appreciated by the class that
they were secured for other meetings.
And now that We are in "Sophdom," our next step is to look forward
to our Junior year and We hope to surpass all of the past Junior classes.

HAVING finally attained their long sought position of Sophomores,
the present class of "Wise fools," as they are often termed, realize that
they have reached another step in the ladder of life, providing the rung
does not break.
During the past and present terms our class has shown an excellent
spirit of Willingness and co-operation. We have had a large membership
in the numerous clubs, and some of our members have shown marked
ability in the Seniorpheums and operettas.
As a result of two very successful dansants a substantial sum was
added to our treasury.
Interesting and amusing class meetings have been held under the
direction of our capable ofhcers.
The class is especially noted for its honor students and during the
remaining years We will strive with the greatest of determination to
uphold the high standards of the school. HOPE ASTEN, Editor-

THE HIGH FRESHMAN CLASS has enjoyed two very successful terms
in Alameda High School. During this time we have done things which
any class would be proud to list among its accomplishments.
To start off, we won the trophy for the largest percentage of stu-
dents holding student body cards. Then came the "Nathan Hale" con-
test Which Was won by two High Freshman students. This was followed
by two successful dansants. Members of the class have turned out for
athletics in a big way. The sports include football, basketball, baseball,
golf, tennis, swimming, and track.
We have made a good start, but wait until you see how we finish!

THIS YEAR the Block "A" Society had one of the biggest years since
it was started. Last Thanksgiving they fed more families than ever be-
fore. Fifty-four families were taken care of at that time by the boys
of the high school.
With the passing of the new constitution, football players received
Block "A's." This year fifteen men received that award. Six blocks
were awarded to the basketball team.
On Circus Day the society had one of the best initiations in history.
Stunts, which were enjoyed by all, were put on by the new members.
The Block "A" Society, which this term made history, is planning
bigger and better times for the future.

THE STAR AND KEY SOCIETY has had a social, as Well as a financial
success during this past year. L
Due to our extensive selling of book covers, which not only provided
the students With very satisfactory covers, but gave the society a reason-
able amount of income, it Was not necessary to charge dues.
Our main social event of the season was the Star and Key Shenanigan.
Guests as Well as members enjoyed the games, dancing and refreshments.
Finishing the school year With success urges us to a still better organi-
zation to represent the honor student of Alameda High School When the
fall term starts next August.

THE PAST YEAR has been a successful one for the Circulus Latinus.
The Circulus is probably one of the oldest and largest clubs in school.
We can boast: that we are the only club to serve refreshments at every
meeting. A skating party and a hike were the principal social activi-
ties of the club this year.
Any student of Latin is welcome to come to these meetings. Our
own paper, the Tempom is another feature of our enterprising club.
Now, although we have told you only a small part of the club,s ac-
tivities, do you not think we are an organization of which Caesar,
Cicero, and several other Roman gentlemen, who help to make us miser-
able, might be Proud? MARGARET SHIELS, Editor.

THE SPANISH CLUB has completed a successful year under the leader-
ship of its iirst and second term presidents, Frank De Luchi and Jack
Desch. These oflicers have held to the custom of having each meeting
of a distinctive type.
An especially interesting meeting was one at which the program con-
sisted entirely of Spanish music. Several well known selections, including
the ever popular "La Palomaf, were played by Richard Downer. Mar-
garet Thomas and Louise McClure, accompanied at the piano by June
Maze, sang "El Capitann and "Rosita." The club members sang one of
their favorite songs, "Carmela."
At other meetings Spanish games have been played, much to the en-
joyment of those present. The club is looking forward to the coming
term, when it plans to continue its activities to a much greater extent.

THE FRENCH CLUB has come to be one of the most outstanding clubs
in Alameda High School. Our membership is large and is growing all
the time. Usually there are about fifty boys and girls at the meetings.
We always have entertainment, refreshments, and a club paper, L'Ecb0.
During the last term, we have had about two hundred foreign corre-
spondents. Thirty members of the club subscribe to French newspapers.
The entertainment at club meetings has consisted of motion pictures of
France, lectures, singing and dancing. Sometimes we play interesting
games. And so if vous parlez francais, you are cordially invited to attend
our meetings.

AT THE BEGINNING of this term, the Sword and Shield Society was
reorganized under the leadership of Sidney Jenkins who, however, refused
to hold an oiiice in the club. At the second meeting of this term, Presi-
dent Bruzzone appointed Elden Rice, Sidney Jenkins and J. Evan Skelly,
a committee of three, to revise and rewrite the constitution of the society.
At the present time this constitution is looked upon by many to be the
most modern and legally correct constitution in the school.
This society is for the commissioned oflicers of the R. O. T. C. unit
and has Major Brown for its adviser. Throughout this term the Sword
and Shield has given several parties all of which were huge successes.
Our motto is "One for all and all for one."

LAST SEMESTER, the Non-Com's Club appeared defunct, all interest
lost and the club,s financial standing at a low ebb. Several of the non-
commissioned oiiicers of the unit assembled and decided that the club
was worth saving. A meeting was held and a tentative reorganization was
proposed and adopted. A constitution was drafted, voted upon, approved,
and finally adopted. Chief among the changes, was a change in the
names of the oflicers, to-Wit: President to Sergeant Major, Secretary-
Treasurer to Chief Clerk, and Sergeant-at-Arms to Provost Sergeant.
The adviser of the club is Sergeant Boyer, R. O. T. C. instructor.
His attendance is most helpful. The reorganized Non-Com's Club is a
success and ought to become a factor in the life of the R. O. T. C. unit.

THE ROUND TABLE CLUB of the Alameda High School was formed
at the close of the last fall term. Its purpose is merely to bring the mem-
bers of the R. O. T. C. closer together and to promote friendship among
the oflicers, the non-com's, and the privates of the unit. Any member
of the R. O. T. C. unit is eligible for membership.
During this fall semester, the members have enjoyed many inter-
esting meetings. One meeting featured motion pictures, showing the
course of instruction at West Point. At another meeting held in the
cafeteria, the main attraction was a boxing match, which Was parti-
cipated in by several members of the unit. The meeting was concluded
with entertainment and refreshments. A skating party Was also held
at Rollerland.

IN THE LAST Oakland Tribune Airplane Contest, the Aviation Club
made a very good showing. Two first places, one second place, and one
third place were taken by members of the club. This year we hope to
bring more honors to Alameda High School through the Aviation Club.
During the last year we have had two successful dansants which have put
our finances above the board. This alone should be an inducement for
new members whom we are always glad to receive. All students in the
high school are invited to join the club. Mr. T. D. Hall is its adviser.

Mr. C. T. LeHeW,g,adViser of the organization, had planned several

so that the student body may realiie the importance of the American

DURING the Christmas recess our club sent nine delegates to the
Junior International Institue in Berkeley. The members have had inter-
esting discussions with Dr. Thompson and a round table discussion con-
cerning the institute. This discussion was held for all students who
wished to attend. V
The club has had two Very interesting talks by the faculty in the last
year. One was on Spain by Miss Isabel Venard and the other was on
Pompeii, the buried city, by Miss Campbell. We have also had much
foreign correspondence, and at a future date, all the members who have
received letters are going to read them for the other members of the club.

THE DEBATING SOCIETY in the past year has participated in very
few activities which demand a great deal of attention, but instead it has
been undergoing a complete reformation by a few interested students.
There has been a complete change of the constitution and of the policies
of the society.
Next 'year an active program is being planned, including interclass
and interschool debates, an initiation party, and several other interesting
events. Any student Who is at all interested in debating or Wishes to
gain experience for the Forum will profit greatly by joining the De-
bating Society.

ALTHOUGH it was only started last term, the Uneeda-Eta Club has
forged ahead, both in membership and the scope of its usefulness. Last
term Lewis Hobe drew up a ine constitution. We also had a Hallowe'en
spread for the students. We then gave a Cafeteria anniversary party
March 4. The club, with its fifty-four members, plan bigger and better
surprises for the coming year, so just watch our smoke from now on.
We Wish to thank Miss Conley for all she has done to make this club
possible, and for its success. We sincerely appreciate her enthusiasm
and help' FRED BoDINsoN, Editor.

THE GIRL RESERVES CLUB, which is the junior organization of the
Y. W. C. A., has had another active year. In the fall term we held an-
other sale of footballs from which the treasury was replenished. We
decided to use some of the money and add personal donations to help a
family recommended by the health center. Persons who would enjoy
helping in this project were asked to participate with us. In response
to this notice the R. O. T. C. gave a most generous donation of food and
clothing. Individual students also helped with this and we were able to
care for two families instead of one as was first planned.
In the spring we held a most enjoyable Valentine party at the home
of Gertrude Landstra. The last meeting was an installation of new of-
ficers which was followed by a party.

To FURTHER art interests in the Alameda High School, a club was
organized this term under the supervision of the art department and
was appropriately called Les Beaux Arts. Under Zelda Long's leader-
ship, honor elections Were originated to which the more gifted members
were invited to join. These sections are to contribute to a bazaar to
be held next Christmas. An excursion to the De Young Museum in
San Francisco was enjoyed by all While many successful meetings, both
social and business, are attracting an ever-increasing membership.

THE GIRLS, ASSOCIATION of Alameda High School passed an eventful
term during the fall of 1931 under Doris Halvorsen. The honor of
introducing noon dansants fell on this administration and also donating
to charity on Thanksgiving.
The Girls' Association of the spring term survived the "depression',
without even noticing the wolf that seemed to be at the door of so many
of our neighbors. Our dansant brought us a surprising amount and at
the same time We contributed to the aid of the unemployed. Some novel
ideas were originated at our meetings-at one, in having a special meeting
to Welcome the Freshmen, While at another the men students of the
school had the honorable distinction of being our guests to listen to the
crooning of the popular Fox singer, Joaquin Garay.
Pins were given the new administration and corsages the old, in
appreciation of their leadership.

THE G. A. A.'s first big event of the fall term of '31 was the annual
jinx. This HalloWe'en costume party was under the managership of
Marion Gilman who arranged that prizes should be offered for the pret-
tiest, the funniest and the most original costumes. The affair was voted
a huge success.
The next item of importance was a High School Sports Day which
Was held at Castlemont High and in which more than one hundred and
fifty girls participated. This present term a similar play-day was held at
San Leandro, and it met with as much success as did the preceding one.
In the spring term the University of California entertained the girls
from the various high schools of the bay region, and our girls had the
opportunity of having a swim in California's famous Hearst Pool.

ANOTHER YEAR has ended and as usual another ACORN is presented
to the students. As far back as 1899, the student body of Alameda High
School has regarded the ACORN as part of the school, and undoubtedly
whenever the alumni wish to remember faces they get out their old
ACORNS. It is impossible to tell at this time if this volume will serve that
same purpose, but here are the names of the associates, both editorial and
business, who contributed much of their time in the forming of the
1932 ACORN!

THE PIEDMONT GAME ALBEE STADIUM. EUREKA
FOOTBALL last season Was not quite what it should have been. The
team just Was not getting the breaks, so to speak, except in one game.
That Was with Mission, in which the Hornets took the San Francisco
boys With a 6-0 score. Lack of experience Was possibly the main ob-
stacle that the coaches had to contend with, but the team as a Whole
showed a Wonderful spirit and iight was not lacking at any time.

This was the opening A.C.A.L. game and Alameda fought valiantly,
but not quite hard enough to cope with Dick Moyer, the Highlandefs
triple-threat man. As an all-around team Alameda was outstanding in

BERKELEY AGAIN THE MISSION GAME
this game. The stars were Captain Hornung, who pulled down two
touchdowns, Schmalenberger, who was responsible for many of the
passes which netted the touchdownsg Blum, Herbert, Helmstein and
Harris also contributed greatly to one of the best games of the season.
ALAMEDA 0-BERKELEY 13
For the eleventh time Alameda met Berkeley on the gridiron, only to
meet defeat at the hands of a slightly more experienced team. A11 the
men on the team fought their hardest under the leadership of the captain,
Jack Hornung. Hornung played line offensive and defensive football
at all times throughout the game.
Herman Pete, Tom McLaverty, "Red" Schmalenberger, and Bob
Colburn creditably handled the backfield, while Jack Westfall, Del
Harris and Bill Tulloh took care of the defense. Bill Herbert, Bob Dahl-
lof, Homer Helmstein, Vernon Lowry, Bud Blum, Jack Skinner, Sid
Truesdell, and Jerry Fraser also fought a hard game. The whole team de-
serves a great amount of credit for their gameness and spirit. The coaches,
Chris Freeman and Carl Young also deserve credit for trying to build
a winning team out of fellows who had very little former experience.

"SIGNALS" , THE OAKLAND GAME
One of the practice games which deserve mention was the Eureka
game. For this game the team journeyed some three hundred miles to
Eureka to tangle for the second time with the northern school. The
sensational part of this game was a ninety-five yard run in the lirst
quarter. The fast work on the part of Hornung almost chalked a second
touchdown, but Kencard of Eureka was able to stop the Alameda player.
Other players deserving mention were Herbert, McLaverty, Condare,
and Helmstein.
Another game was the only one that Alameda won during the season.
This was against Mission High School of San Francisco, and was played
at Neptune Beach. In this game the whole team clicked and Hornung
again showed the boys what could be done with a football when he tore
through the Mission line, outrunning three of the San Francisco men for
fifty-ive yards for a touchdown.
When Vallejo journeyed to Alameda to play the Hornets, some mis-
understanding arose, and the entire Vallejo team walked off the Held, but
after smoothing matters over, they returned, only to put over their
second touchdown to take Alameda by a 12-0 score. Both the Alameda
line and backfield played a good game.

THE CLASS "B" TEAM, or the 13O,s, completed their season with four
victories and three defeats, with practically each game an improvement
over the preceding one. For the first time the team was coached by a
member of the faculty. Coach Lewis Jolley took the time to develop
quite a scrappy little team this year. In former years the coaching Was
handled by a post-graduate who was ineligible to play on the varsity.
Class "B" stars included: Joe Beach, Bob Stubbs, Frank and Morris Hun-
ter, Eddie Eckhardt, George Gundlach and Rolland Dickey.
Jolley appointed a captain for each game, except in the Berkeley
game. The team in this game elected Frank Hunter to lead them.
In most cases the 130's tangled with second-string teams of the other
schools, so the fellows deserve a lot of credit.

LEAGUE GAMES
ALAMEDA 22-RICHMOND 32
This was the first game of the season. Play was slow at first, and did
not quicken enough to overcome the lead. Schmalenberger starred.
ALAMEDA 16-PIEDMONT 28
Alameda played hard, but the Piedmont boys were a little too much
for the Hornets. Herman Pete and Bill Reid played an excellent game.
ALAMEDA 22-BERKELEY 27
This game was one of the best in the season as the whole team was
playing on about a par. Bill Brock was high-point man.
ALAMEDA 23-RICHMOND 26
One of the hardest fought games of the season, with Richmond able
to nose out a victory in the last few seconds of play.
ALAMEDA 26-PIEDMONT 50
The second game with Piedmont. At the half Alameda was far
behind when Bill Kint Went into the game. The team rallied, and came
close to a victory, being again nosed out in the last few minutes of play.
ALAMEDA 28-BERKELEY 39
Although this was the closing game in the A. C. A. L., and Alameda
had not a chance in the world to place in the league, the fellows battled
hard and showed the spectators that fight was there at all times. Even
though with poor scores of previous games, this did not dishearten them
in the least.
Six men received Block "A's" this season. They were: Capt. Fred
Schmalenberger, Bill Kint, Bill Brock, Herman Pete, Bill Reid, and
Franklin Schurr, who earned his as an efficient manager.
Coach Carl Young worked long and hard with the team, but things
just did not seem to break as they should have done. Even though the
team lost many games, they did not lose heart and fought to the very last
of every game with a great deal of enthusiasm.

Winning the A. C. A. L. Class "B" championship in the last few
minutes of play in the Berkeley game, was the work of Alameda 150's
headed by Captain Shigeshi Madakoro, otherwise known as "Shug."
Bob Gardiner was high point man of the season with well over one
hundred points to his credit. Gther men who truly represented the
school were Dave Warwick, Norman Johnson, Camisa. Bill Clune, Dick
Brace, and Leland Barbour. Bob Stubbs was manager.
Ordinarily the varsity games are the games that attract and bring in
the crowds, but more interest was focused on the Class "B" season this
year. They offered real basketball and were fast.
Coach Lewis Jolley coached them to A. C. A. L. victory. The team
was by no means a one-man outfit, but every man played his part and
played it well. Many of these fellows will possibly go into varsity next
season, so chances for next yearis varsity at this time look quite promising.

In the first league game of the season, with Richmond, Amaral and
Hooper shared the honors on the mound for the Hornets. These two
allowed the Oilers only 8 hits. Six errors almost cost Alameda the game,
but Sandahl saved the day by a run in the last inning.

Another close game. Helmstein occupying the box, but not quite
able to hold the Yellowjackets. Alameda almost staged a comeback by
getting four runs in the last two innings, but could not quite make the
grade.
ALAMEDA 3-RICHMOND 4
A run in the last inning spelled victory for Richmond. Helmstein
allowed the opponents only four hits, while Alameda reached Hrst seven
times.
ALAMEDA 2-BERKELEY 3
Another one-run victory game for the opposition. Hooper pitched a
six-hit game, but the last run in the last inning was the deciding score.
Alameda had seven hits and three errors to Berkeley's six hits and two
errors.
The regulars on this year's baseball team who are to receive Block
"A,s" are: Joe Church, Tom Parodi, Kiyomisu Nogami, Fred Filipelli,
Elmer Sandahl, Edward McMullen, Ralph Warwick, Douglas Hooper,
Beverley Randall, and Homer Helmstein.
Dr. Paul Vigness, history teacher, took over the Class "BD team this
year and developed quite a team, so material for next year's varsity turn-
out looks promising at this stage of the game.

THE A. C. A. L. MEET
In an exciting and spectacular meet held at the old California oval,
Alameda's track team came through to win the .. C. A. L. The final
scores Were: Alameda, 65 Mtg Piedmont, 4125 erkeley, 33mg Rich-
mond, 14. -
Brace Won the 880, but had to run a hard race. Hornung took a first
place in the 100 finals, and took a second in the 220, 7being just nosed out
of a first by Helmer of Piedmont. Rice Won the mile in 4 minutes, 37M
seconds. Les and Curtis Marcum tied for first in the pole vault, and then
Les set a new record of 12 feet for the A. C. A. L.
Haller, a new man in track circles, tied for Hrst in the high jump
With Raymond of Berkeley at 5 feet, nine inches. Jack Westfall took first
place in the discus and a third place in the shot. Iwahashi won the broad
jump with a jump of 20 feet, nine and one-half inches. Barton took a
second in this event. Tulloh took a second in the javelin with Cross of
Berkeley taking a first.
As the ACORN goes to press one meet yet remains. That is the State
meet in Modesto on May 21.
Kenneth Richardson was track manager this year. It was his duty
to arrange meets and see that the business end functioned properly.
Last minute flash: As the ACORN was running on the press, the track
team won the North Coast meet with 26M points.

Alameda did not fare so well in Class "B" track. Piedmont took the

with 40M points, and Alameda brought up the rear with 17 points.
Dick Brace turned Class "B" for the day, and although he set a slow
pace in the sso-yard run, he still went fast enough to set a new Class "B"
record. Iwahashi took the broad jump without much trouble. His jump
of 20 feet, three inches, marked ive points for Alameda. Sundby's
second place in the quarter-mile helped out the score, as did a few scat-
tered third and fourth places. Promising material is seen in future years
in Class "B" track with many freshmen entering school.
Frank Ucovich was manager. Ucovich, although a fast man himself,
was forced to stay out of competition through an illness.

- As THIS book goes to press the A. C. A. L. meet remains to be swum,
so one cannot judge the swimming team fairly. Although the above
scores do not look too encouraging, Alameda this year had some fine
swimmers. Many of these fellows took consistent first places. They
Were: Ralph Gilman, who usually swam the distances, Russ Agnew, med-
ley man, Hodgkins, divesg Lyle Guslander, Sam Hall, Bob Stubbs, Bill
Sherrard, Walt Grazzini, and Roy Siem, also took many firsts. If it was
not a first, one could always count on a second.
Chris Freeman was coach and Bud Blum did a fine job as manager.

The fellows who constitute the first team are as follows: Al Foerster, Capt.
Fred Blanchard, Bill McCall, John Durney, A1 Lukes, Ed Minium, Bill
Hunter, Golson Young, Nick Shevanko, and Bob Norton. Substitutes

THIS YEAR the tennis team was co-coached by Clovey La Croix and
Lewis Jolley. The practice games were fairly successful, but the team
did not fare so well in the A. C. A. L. This was possibly due to lack of
experience.
The members that composed Alameda,s A.C.A.L. team consisted of
the following men: Bill Hill, George Tanaka, Bill Spees, Curt Haxthausen,
and Stanley Noyes. The final score of the A. C. A. L. was: Richmond, 5 3
Berkeley, 25 Alameda, Og Piedmont, 0.
With more boys signifying their intention of turning out, the chances
for a better team next year are better.

GIRLS' ATHLETICS
THE I'-732 ACORN
Basketball
THE BASKETBALL season of Fall, 1931, was exciting to say the least.
With Miss Danielson as coach and Catherine Ratto as manager, there was
an unusually large turnout, the result of which was, of course, keen com-
petition. For the third consecutive time the present 4-A class won the
championship, and it was a victory that was well earned. The members
of the winning team were: Dorothy Fleming, Jeanette Fitzsimmons,
Mary Shurtleff, Lorraine Spencer, Frances Glover, Grace Kneedler,
Thelma lmbrulia, Daisy I-ling, and Dorothy Dean.
Tennis
IN BOTH the Fall and Spring terms tennis was managed by Alberta
Machen and was coached by Miss Eggert. In the Fall term the round
robin system was used, while in the present term a ladder system was
devised. It is believed that the ladder form will be more successful than
any of the previous systems, as it gives the girls the opportunity to
challenge anyone they wish. The six highest winners for the Fall term
were: Louise Shanahan, Gladys Ross, Alberta Machen, Frances Glover,
Katherine Currie, and Ruth Borsuk.
Hockey
OF ALL THE sports in Alameda High, hockey is usually considered to
be the most dangerous of them all. After many a Herce battle, the 3AB
team proved themselves to be the victors. The management of this pop-
ular sport was under the direction of Bertis Talbot, and Miss Eggert acted
as coach. The victors were: Vera DeBernardi, Mary Rainey, Thelma
Imbrulia, Ellen Allstead, Grace Kneedler, Marjorie Zimmerman, Lor-
raine Spencer, Olive Lunderman, Evelyn Dodge, Daisy Hing, Frances
Glover, Virginia Brown, and Dorothy Sutherland.
Speedball
THE G. A. A. sports' season for Spring, 1932, was opened by a most
interesting season of speedball. For the first time in the history of G. A. A.
sports the freshmen had a really good team. However, the 4AB's proved
to be too much for them. Speedball was ably managed by Dorothy
Thompson and was coached by Miss Eggert. The winners were: Pearl
Lee, Charlotte Christenson, Muriel Sharpsteen, Anita Vallerga, Eloise
Shubert, Lorraine Spencer, Mary Shurtleff, Betty Crawford, Frances
Glover, Kathryn Lewis, Bernice Frick, and Glory Wfyckoff.

THE I932 ACORN
Golf
GOLF HAS WON over many admirers as shown by the exceptionally
large turnout. Mr. Earl Fry has been the instructor for the girls, and his
teachings have proved to be very successful, as shown by the scores. For
the Spring term Frances Glover acted as manager. The girls who earned
their points in this particular sport are: Dorothy Cooper, Frances Thomp-
son, Wilhelmena Webster, Frances Glover, Georgina Winn, Winifred
Dole, Jane Thomas, Jane Borton, Alexa Coney, Virginia Stahl, Gladys
Klapp, Marjory Welch, and Betty McClintock.
Swimming
- THE SWIMMING turnout for Fall, 1931, was small because of the con-
flicts with other sports. Janet Ferren was manager and Miss Elliott was
coach, and both have held their positions through the Spring term. In
the Spring term there was a larger turnout, and a swimming meet was
held later in the term. It is still a deep secret as to who will emerge
victors of the forthcoming meet, but it has been rumored that the Seniors
have a strong team. More power to you, Seniors!
Baseball
As IN THE case of swimming and crew, this ACORN will go to press
before the victors of baseball will be named. This year baseball is under
the student direction of Glory Wyckoff, and it is being coached by Miss
Stockwell. At the present time the 3A's, 4AB's and 2B's are all tied for
Iirst place. The winners, whoever they may be, will receive their num-
erals and one hundred points. The tie will probably be played off by the
last of May. Congratulations to the victors of the baseball diamond.
Crew I 'X
THE TURNOUT for crew in the Spring term, 1932, has been exceed-
ingly large. On some days there have been as many as eighty girls at the
boat house on Lake Merritt. Miss Danielson is a very efficient coach,
and it would be hard to get along without her. Betty Crawford is the
student manager for the present term. At this moment the victory of
the crew regatta is a toss-up between the 3B's and the combined 4AB's.
After the race a weinie roast was held for the winners. At this picnic the
crew manager for next year was elected.

Circus Day
ONE OF THE BEST Circus Days Alameda High School, or the entire
city of Alameda, for that matter, has witnessed was the event which
took place on May 20.
In the first place, Dr. Thompson, principal, gave orders that the
periods should be shortened in the morning and that study periods would
be eliminated entirely, the students going to the auditorium where they
witnessed a movie instead. At noon school was dismissed and the stu-
dents and faculty alike swarmed to the concessions which were operated
by classes and organizations. Here they were able to buy anything from
soda pop to peanuts.
Promptly at 1 o,clock, Major Jose Perez-Brown, instructor in Mili-
tary Science and Tactics, gave the order for the bugle call which started
the parade. The floats and cars assembled at Walnut and Alameda Ave-
nues. The line of march was as follows: Down Walnut to Lincoln, Lin-
coln to Park Street, to Santa Clara, to Broadway where the parade went
before the reviewing stand to be judged. The parade then continued on
to Central, thence to Park Street again where it swung to the left to
Alameda Avenue. The queen of the day was made officially the queen
at the halt of the parade at Walnut and Alameda. During the parade
different circus acts were taking place. Among these were clowns, bare-
back riding, stunts, cowboy antics, and many other circus familiarities.
During the day the initiation of the new Block "Av Society members
took place. This gave the students a good opportunity to see a lot of
fun and suffering on the part of the victims who took it all with a grin.
This initiation was the biggest in the history of athletics in the school.
It was also the first time that golf was regarded as a major sport and
players were eligible to receive the coveted award.
That evening a dance which featured homecoming for the alumni was
held in the gym. Both of the gyms were opened and decorated so as to
appear like a circus tent. Lyle Guslander was responsible for the success
of this dance and he has had experience, of course, as was remembered
by the most excellent Junior Prom which he handled. Miss Crever and
Mr. Goldman assisted Guslander as faculty aids in the evening dance.
Jean Nason was elected by popular vote of the school to reign as
Queen of the 1932 Circus Day.
