JOSEPH REDIGER DEDICATION This yearbook is dedicated to a man who renders great service to the school and to his department. It is dedicated not only because of this service, but also because of his kindness, help, sincerity, and general encouragement of students to excell. Therefore, we proudly dedicate the Acorn of nineteen-hundred and sixty-one to Dr. Joseph Rediger. Ann Human Ann Human, from Rotterdam, Holland, has at- tended A.H.S. this past year. Ann is 18 years old. Back home in Holland she lives with her mother, father, and brother, with whom she gets along very well. She said, “I like my brother, isn’t that strange?’ In Alameda, Ann has been staying with Mrs. V. Anderson and her family. Ann has found that in America the teenagers start doing things much too young. A good exam- ple of this is, of course, dating. In Ann’s country the children stay longer and they do things in groups until they are about 16 years old. Also if there is a dance, one goes stag and dances with many differ- ent people. In this country one goes to a dance with a date and dances with the same person all night even if one does not like the person. There is just no way out except to say “no” to the date. The American Field Service program promotes greater understanding between countries. Ann thinks that the program helps promote world peace. “Dat ben erg mooi!’ says Anne and A.H.S. (his is because if you take part in the program you get accurate impressions about a country and bring these impressions back to your own people. This in turn can promote a stronger relationship with other countries. When Ann goes back to Holland she will study for two years and then will become an elementary school teacher. The reason that her course will be so short compared with the course in the U.S. is because Ann has finished five years of secondary school which is equivalent to our high school except more difficult. In A.H.S. we have courses that are unavailable in the Dutch schools. Ann had never taken Sr. problems, cooking, typing or driver's ed- ucation. Also unavailable are manual arts courses such as woodshop. Ann feels that her life and many of her ideas have changed because of the experiences that she gained in America. We at A.H.S. loved having Ann here and we hope she will always remember us as a wonderful experience. Anne Human points to a map of the Netherlands (and if Anne doesn’t know about Holland, who does?) Partners in Understanding Anne registers a look of extreme concentration as she bowls. Does she like it? She loves it! For a while it seemed that everywhere our pretty ex- change student looked, surprise! There was a camera, Someone must have said soniething funny and the witty remark gets gay recognition from Anne.

MELL Mr. Mell Inspires Us To Progress No matter how much knowledge we may acquire or how much skill we may develop in our chosen vocation, we cannot be suc- cessful unless we have mastered ‘the art of getting along with people. All people are alike in certain respects. For example, everyone wants the admira- tion, respect, and love of his family and friends. If at times we feel the lack of con- fidence in ourselves, we remember that such is true also of the very person who seenis to have the most self-assurance in the world. Che important thing for us to remember is that other people are like us. To get along with them, we must first understand ourselves. Perhaps one of the finest opportunities we have for doing this comes from participating in the education- al, physical, and social offerings afforded all students during their four years of high school life. Poise,’ maturity, achievement, skills, and friendships are bu t a few of the results of appreciation, responsibility, our high school experience which help us to better understand ourselves. The 1961 Acorn in its theme “Tides of Progress” has delightfully captured for pos- terity, both in photography and prose, the multiplicity of activities and achievements which have given substance, direction, meaning, and objectivity to, and pride in, our high school life. I wish to extend my personal thanks and heartfelt appreciation to Bruce Shephard and Joanne ‘Takeda, Editors; Vicki Butler, Business Manager; their staffs; and to Mr. Bruce Tingwall and Mr. Peter Ribicoff, Editorial and Business Manager’ Advisers, for their many hours of hard work and levoted effort. Lowell W. Mell, Principal DR. DONALD M. RCDERICK Superintendent of Schools Our Leaders Encourage Advancement The Board of Education has the responsibility of making the rules and regulations which gov- ern the Alameda Unified School District. In pub- lic meetings held twice a month the members make the decisions which provide the essentials for a good educational program. They approve the courses of study, set school policies, review the financial status, and approve expenditures of the public monies. The smooth and efficient operation of the com- munity’s educational system depends greatly upon the manner in which the Board of Educa- tion functions. Careful scrutiny of the progress our schools have made should assure anyone that the Board of Education is doing an excellent job. Dr. Roderick, the Superintendent of Schools, BOARD OF EDUCATION—left to right: Mr. Walter V. Howe, Mrs. Lee Cavanaugh, Dr. Stuart Stevens, Dr. Donald D. Lum, President, Mr. A. Hubbard, Jr. is appointed by the Board of Education as its executive officer. In preparation for this impor- tant role, he has previously served the Alameda schools as a teacher in both the elementary and secondary schools, as an elementary school vice- principal, an elementary principal, principal of the Adult School, and Assistant Superintendent. He has served as Superintendent for the past nine years. Although his duties and responsibilities are many, he nevertheless finds time to discuss any problems which students, parents, and Alameda citizens may bring to his office. He also sees to it that the public is kept informed of the important educational issues, and directs the administra- tion of the schools. Understanding Administrators Vice-Principal Dr. Snell is a man with a myriad of things to do, and he does them all admirably. Among other things he acts as head counselor of the Men’s Board of Control and is in charge of sign-ups for it. He assists Mr. Mell in important matters, including making up the program schedule. DR. SNELL Vice-Principal A woman who is more than helpful and who every girl will remember is Mrs. Hoeksema. She has many responsibilities that she must attend to. She is Vice Principal, and Head Advisor to the Wom- en’s Board of Control, Courtesy Board and to the Girls Association. When a club’s activity needs publicity, Mrs. Hoeksema is always happy to help alert the pub- lic b y arranging newspaper publicity, or in any other way possible. Her kindness and understanding have gained her much respect and friendship among Alameda High School students. MRS. HOEKSEMA Vice-Principal BARTLEY Counselor Mr. Bartley does many different jobs as head counsellor of Alameda High School. He helps one to adjust to adulthood and to accept responsibili- ties. He advises students and helps them to select the right kind of program to suit their abilities. He also helps students when their counsellors cannot be reached. Mr. Bartley helps set rules for scholarship tests and to advise the student whether he should take these tests. and Counselors Guide Us To Our Future Years MRS. C. HOWELL MRS. .L. diVECCHIO The counselors are a very important part of any student’s program planning in high school. ‘They give guidance to the students when it seems necessary. Many students do not realize how valuable a good counselor can be. The counselor performs numerous services which are helpful to the student. Among their services, counselors interpret test data. ‘Tests can be anything from an I.Q. test to a college entrance examination which might oth- erwise be impossible to obtain. Information concerning entrance require ments for further education may be obtained from a counselor. The students should seek this informa- Mrs. Howell points out the advantages of college life.

If they are having particular trouble with any of these requirements they should not hesitate to talk them over with their counselors. The counselors may be able to suggest alternate courses or, if necessary, a COm- pletely different objective in the fulfillment of a high school education. In addition, the counselors remind students of credit and subject deficiencies, they give informa- tion on scholarship opportunities, they suggest remedial subjects for scholastic weaknesses, and procure tutors or other assistance when needed.

English is a required subject during the first three years of one’s high school education. Many students, particularly the college-bound, take ad- vantage of the opportunity to acquire a fourth year of instruction. Beside the regular English courses there is, whenever possible, an Honor’s English class to challenge students evidencing a superior ability. The English Department keeps a store of ex- cellent literary works, such as Shakesperian plays, Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables, and Thomas ram] English students recite under the watchful eye of Mr. Moore. Hardy’s Return of the Native, at the disposal of its teachers. An interest ing innovation during the past year has been the offering of great literary works in the Senior English classes. There is also a sufficient quantity of books which deal exclu- sively with. English grammar and _ sentence mechanics. Because of the great books they have become aware of and because of the doors that have been opened to the beauty of thought, the students are grateful. Ej Is this right?

Gamboa (not pictured) French, Latin, and Spanish are the foreign languages offered to the students at A.H.S. In these classes students have the opportunity to learn the language of their choice and further their educations in foreign relations and customs as well. Teachers in this department keep their classes interesting. They frequently provide educational diversions in the form of songs sung in a foreign tongue or projects which combine language study with the study of a country’s history. Ole! Muchachos y muchachas, el Castellano es una lengua muy maravillosa. Through N.D.E.A. the school system is raising funds which the government plans to match. These funds will help procure tape recorders and phonographs for the language department. This equipment will be used for audio aid and to help with word pronunciation. If attained, this equip- ment might pave the way to a language labora- tory in the future. Any progress in this area would be of great merit, and enhance A.H.S.’s already excellent language department. Students of Latin look at wall adornments and ponder days when all roads led to Rome.

Carpenter, Mr. P. Berry. Mathematics is necessary to every student whether he is college-bound or not. It is used every day by men and women, boys and girls, in all walks of life. There are many subjects in the mathematical vein offered to A.H.S. students. These subjects, besides enlarging the student’s knowledge, assist in enabling him to construct a logical thought pattern. Some of these are courses su ch as every- day math, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, My, this is confusing. Slide Rule, and Senior Math. College Prepara- tory Math is also offered to the high seniors to refresh their minds for the college entrance ex- aminations. There is another class, called Honors Math, which is offered to those students who are outstanding in mathematics. These students pro- gress beyond the average high school level in the fields of algebra, geometry, and calculus. Ala- meda High School has indeed, a complete Math Department. —_— Mr. Carpenter explains the fundamentals of geometry to his class.

The students are very fortunate to have a staff of science teachers who are always willing to give extra assistance when it is needed. Students are required to have one year of sci- ence, biology. It is divided into two sections, plant life and animal life. This gives students a basic Smiles of fiendish glee light up the faces of Mr. Coughlan’s Chemistry students.

This includes either physiology or chemistry. Both are ex ellent courses and should be considered by all students. If a student is particularly interested in science he may wish to study physics. This is a very ad- vanced course given at the senior grade level. Mr. Cou ghlin’s Chemistry class looks busy enough to be making a monster.

European and United States History are taught during the sophomore and junior years. These subjects cover the aftermath of the First World War, the sudden flowering of democracy all over Europe and the approach of a League of Nations. This article can cover only a small part of the knowledge gained when taking these courses. Give us liberty or give us death.

A.H.S.’s Manual Arts Department offers courses which are beneficial to students who are interested in these things as a hobby. Its courses are also excellent for those students who plan their vocations in the field of manual arts. The classes offered in this department are of two types. There are classes which last for an hour. In them the students can learn wood work- ing and leather working, or how to work with metals and plastics. Hour classes are also given These are students of manual arts. Budding electrical genuises of tommorw? in electronics. Those curious about what these classes turn out can sometimes see their fine handiwork on display in the showcase in our A.H.S. lobby.

In all shop classes the pupils are taught proper use and care of the machinery, the invaluable awareness of working around the machinery in safety. He can put it back together again too. Manual arts offer excellent vocational training. 19 The Business Future Looks Promising 4 BUSINESS EDUCATION DEPARTMENT TEACHERS—Left to right: Mrs. J. Van Ogtrop, Mrs. S. Patty, Mr. C. Van Sickle, Mrs. M. Lauck, Mr. M. Alvord, Mr. Fee. The Business Education Department of Ala- meda High School offers such courses as book- keeping, secretarial work, clerical work, office jobs, and stenographic work. Students who avail themselves of these courses find them helpful in all vocations. There is an excellent staff of teach- ers who are always willing to help the students with their work. [The business course includes such subjects as typing, business machines, office practice, and transcription of dictation. These classes prepare the students participating in them for the future and offer many fine points in secretarial work. Ihe course of dictation transcription actually takes two periods, one for taking notes and the other for typing. A typing course is useful for students, both college-bound or business-bound. Excellent training and opportunity are pro- vided for students taking advantage of the courses offered in the Business Education De- partment at Alameda High School.

Each member of the staff performs a very special duty of bringing to you, the students and faculty at A.H.S., a nourishing and satisfactory meal. The staff aims to please you. They serve the meals you enjoy eating. Mrs. Kikes, who is manager of this staff, has many capable adult workers as well as equally A group of ravenous girls lunch in our well patronized cafeteria. 26 capable student workers, who prepare a well- balanced meal. There is also a snack bar in the cafeteria to serve those students who wish to buy only part of their lunches instead of a complete meal. The snack bar is open both at noon and after school. Alameda High School is only one of the schools that benefits from these delicious meals. Many of the grammar schools are sent meals prepared by our cafeteria staff. We thank Mrs. Kikes and her staff for this excellent work. These fellows have already eaten their lunches in our cafeteria.

The membership of the Ad Board is made up of the student body officers, six representatives- at-large elected by the student body, and two representatives from each class. Its main duties are settling difficulties at student body meetings, appropriating student body funds, and carrying out school policies. Our well known opening dance is also pre- sented by the Ad Board. “Touch Down Time,” presented last fall, was thoroughly enjoyed by all. A very important part of our school govern- ment is the Student Faculty Committee which consists of the student body officers, the chief counselors of the Boards of Control, the speaker of the Ad Board, and the presidents of the G.A., G.A.A., and the Men’s and Women’s Block “A”. Also serving on the committee as faculty advisors are Mr. Mell, Dr. Snell, Miss Los Kamp, and Mr. Moore. At the weekly meetings the committee dis- cusses the type of entertainment suitable for our meetings and selects and arranges each program. Order! Discipline! Regulations! The Boards of Control are two of the most im- portant organizations of Alameda High School. They have many important responsibilities to carry out. The Boards of Control do their best to maintain order at all student body meetings, Girls’ Association meetings, and interscholastic athletic contests. They also do their best to pre- vent our school from being cluttered with litter. ‘There are both a Men’s and Women’s Board of Control. Members are carefully chosen by the Ad-Board and a special student-faculty commit- tee. Very capable students are chosen to partici- pate as members. Meetings are held once a week for 45 minutes.

The class of June °61 presented ‘“Teahouse of the August Moon,” a three-act play by John Patrick, in the A.H.S. auditorium on November 4th and 5th. It was highly successful due to the excellent cast and superb direction of Mr. Lloyd Sisler. Although a comedy, the play has serious mo- ments as it deals with race prejudice and the contrast of the Far East’s set of values with ours. The Okinawans gradually understand the word May August Moon Captain Fisby explains that he does not intend to keep the Geisha girl, Lotus Blossom. “democracy” but question its use; and Lotus Blossom, the geisha, does not understand why some Americans would shun her if she went to the land of democracy.

After many laugh-provoking problems with Captain Purdy III (and everybody else) the day is saved and the play ends as it began, a rollicking comedy. O-shi-ma-i.

The fall editor was Mike Fassiotto and the assistant editor Linda Johnson. The spring editor was Linda Johnson and the assistant editor was Liz Lee. Joan Logan was the business manager for the year. The Oak Leaf reports on. school activities, has feature articles and advertisments for the Ala- meda merchants. Among other things, the Oak Leaf reports on our senior plays and dances. A whole page is dedicated to the sports, depending on whatever the sports season happens to be. Other articles are contributed by the various clubs, societies, and organizations about their meetings, dances and other interesting activities, and offices. The Oak Leaf staff writes interesting articles for the students’ enjoyment. Often an amusing Oak Leaf staff works hard to get paper out on time.

These are the editorials; Dear Buzzy, and the A.I.O. by Mack McCray; Military Life by Bob Braly; special surprise stories; and arti- cles. As each semester draws to a close the Oak Leaf staff produces a Senior edition which in- cludes reports on their activities, editorials writ- ten by Seniors, personalities, and words to. the wise. The Oak Leaf staff works hard all year, writ- ing, getting articles to the printer in time, getting ads from the Alameda merchants to finance the paper, and meeting deadlines in general.

When the season for angels, carolers, and candy cane comes, the students of A.H.S. can always be certain that with it shall come an im- pressive Christmas Pageant. 1960’s Christmas Pageant was called “The Song the Angels Sang.” It was created and directed by Mr. Lloyd Sisler, who did a wonderful job. As the pageant’s action unfolded, a priest, portrayed by Gary Garfinkle, tried to inspire faith, courage, and the Christmas spirit in a typical “angry young man,” portrayed by Jim Toman. The priest recalled many Christmases when the future had looked black, and spoke of disasters which had been survived. The priest’s memories were enacted on stage. All scenes were artfully designed and several were humorous. The highlights were the Christ- mas at Maxims, Church Christmas programs, and bomb scenes. The Christmas at Maxims scene had color and a certain element of com- edy. The scene showing preparation for a Church Christmas program wes hilarious, and the bomb scene was striking. Modern Dance students took part in these scenes. They were accompanied by the excellent A.H.S. orchestra, which added a great deal to the entire pageant as did the choir. Snowflakes rehearse for Church Play in the Christmas Pageant. This Way to Your Seat a USHERETTES—ROW I, left to right: S. Irmsher, C. Polk, J. Jennings. ROW II: J. Pearson, D. McElvogue, L. Theis, L.

The usherettes work at extra plays and gradu- ations held in the high school auditorium. Their job is to graciously and correctly seat all persons who attend any function at which A.H.S. re- quires their services. The girls who keep the group running smooth- ly are: Judy Moore, Manager; Charlotte Polk, Co-Manager; Nora Sheeham, Balcony Manager; June Tennings, Balcony Co-Manager; Anne Jartman, Secretary; Hallie Horton, Treasurer. The girls are helped by their sponsor, Mrs. Cos- sette. During the fall term, the usherettes held an installation party, and held a picnic at Rob- ert's Area. This last fall, to add atmosphere to the Senior Play, “Teahouse of the August Moon,” the girls wore Japanese costumes. The auditorium staff also provides service to A.H.S. The boys on this staff are chosen from R.O.T.C. and are rewarded according to service rendered. 4] THE ORCHESTRA—ROW |, left to right: Mr. C. Hanson, C. Hoas, M. Kennedy, J. Hanson, J. Sparks, P.

Before the games the members of the band march down to Thompson Field playing our school songs to stir up spirit. The band also participated in the annual Band Day at the University of California. The string ensemble, which is directed by Mr. Hanson, is very well known at Alameda High School for its excellent playing. The string en- semble plays for the Christmas Pageant which is presented annually. They play selections dur- ing the intermissions at Senior Plays. The band and the string ensemble combined, play for the graduation exercises. Every year the string ensemble and band take a trip to the University of the Pacific to partici- pate in the annual Music Clinic. They spend the day there meeting students from other schools and working in their respective fields of music. You must be at least a sophomore to be eligible to attend this meeting. The band and the string ensemble add a touch of distinction to Alameda High School. A.H.S. BAND—ROW I, left to right: V. Sucatre, D. McGinnis, C. Martinez, M. Xenos, C. But, M. Jackson, V.

The students of Alameda High School should feel the privilege accorded to them in having many various choral classes offered. One may participate in such classes as Girls’ or Boys’ Glee. There is also a Junior Choir, Senior Choir, and Vocal Ensemble. The individual student learns different notes and musical symbols in his class.

Annually some of the students go to the Col- lege of the Pacific where they participate in a choir which consists of music students from all over the state.

The qualifications are leadership, patriotism, dependability, an unselfish attitude, These violinists received a su- perior rating at the Solo and Ensemble Twirling Festival held at Stanford. and interest towards the school and in the family. Stephanie Nesbit and Gary Ganfinkle were the Girls’ and Boys’ State winners. ‘They repre- sented Alameda High School in a conference which lasted a weck. Both Gary and Stephanie obtained a better understanding of the state government and how it is run. Graduating Life Members of the Star and Key Society. and Outstanding Award Winners These vocalists received an ex- cellent rating at Stanford. The California Music Educators’ Associa- tion presented a Solo-Ensemble-Twirling Festi- val on March 4, 1961, at Stanford. Many stu- dents from Alameda High participated and they did very well. The Spring Ensemble and the Vocal Ensemble both a received a superior I rating. Stephanie Nesbit and Gary Garfinkle represented A.H.S. at Boys’ and Girls’ State in Sacramento last summer. In order to become a life member of the Star and Key, one must maintain a “B” average and be a member of the Star and Key, for three con- secutive semesters or four non-consecutive se- mesters. A life member of the Star and Key re- selves a red seal on his diploma upon graduat- ing. It is really an honor and a privilege to be a life member of the Star and Key. EVIE ASHCROFT D.A.R.

Jo Takeda, our Vice President, entertained us with a very amusing Safety meeting at which Mr. Payne was our guest speaker. Jo succeeded in encouraging students to keep the school clean. Very well known for his excellent minutes was Recording Secretary Jim Toman. He also did a very good job keeping the School Scrap Book. 46 Yell Leader Al Spector, Financial Secretary, was kept busy trying to keep the books balanced. He found us many excellent student rates which could be used with the presentation of a Student Body card. Leading us in our cheers was Rick Rankin who always had plenty of spirit.

The Administrative Board has a large respon- sibility in managing a big part of the affairs at A.H.S. They sponsored the opening dance, this spring called “Happy Talk,” in which the new students can get to know one another. The Ad Beard also settles many problems arising at the Student Body Meetings. The Ad Board is made up of the five student body officers, two representatives, a boy and a girl, from each class, and six representatives at large selected by the entire student body. Whenever a problem arises, the Ad Board votes democratically on its decision. Another governmental organization at A.H.S. is the Student-Faculty Committee. This commit- tee’s most important responsibility is selecting the entertainment for the student body meetings. The Student-Faculty Committee consists of the student body officers, the chief counselors of the Boards of Control, the speaker of Ad Board and the presidents of .G.A., G.A.A., and Men’s and Women’s Block “A”. This committee helps in maintaining the high standards of A.H.S. The Boards of Control Should Be Respected The duty of the Men’s and Women’s Boards of Control is to maintain order among the nu- merous students of Alameda High. They give efficient service to their school and keep in mind Alameda’s “Always High Standards.” At their meetings, held once a week during school hours, they issue essays and detentions to the worst violators of the A.H.S. regulations and rules. It should be noted that the Boards of Con- trol at A.H.S. are run entirely by the students themselves, for only in rare cases do faculty members attend the meetings. This spring the men’s Board of Control was efficiently headed by Rich Cartwright as Chief Counselor. First Vice Counselor was Rick Mc- Creery, and John Adams served as Second Vice Counselor; Art Irish was Recording Secretary, and Bob Rodgers served as the capable Sergeant- at Arms. Leslie Mecum was Chief Counselor of the Spring Women’s Board of Control; serving as her First Vice Counselor was Kathie Tilton and Holly Hart was her second Vice Counselor. Kris Steele was the able Recording Secretary, along with Misao Sato as First Sergeant-at-Arms and Judy Mein as Second Sergeant-at-Arms. WOMEN’S BOARD OF CONTROL—ROW I, left to right: C. Davis, H.

Dr. Sanderson feels that Elwood shows a keen perception of mental illness (for a layman). !t is later decided that Elwood fire in her eye and Sanderson is dumbfounded. Could it be? Yes, it is. A lovers’ quarrel. The magic of whimsy ran rampant through the Spring Senior Play, Pulitzer Prize winning comedy, “Harvey.” It centers around the extremely charming but slightly dotty fellow, Elwood P. Dowd, Elwood’s sister, Veta, and her daughter, Myrtle. Elwood, although a nice man, chooses very strange friends. Much to Veta’s and Myrtle’s distress, his strangest and best friend is a six foot one- and-one half inch white rabbit named Harvey, whom no one can see but Elwood. Elwood’s should trade in his suit coat for a straitjacket. passion for introducing Harvey to everybody creates a definite social handicap. Veta decides to have Elwood committed. She is committed by mistake. Chaos and hysteria reign with psychiatrists who begin to doubt their own sanity, hurt nurses, and a sanitarium orderly who makes passes at the weird and gangly Myrtle Mae. As in many comedies, “Harvey” has a thread of serious philosophy running through it. The onlooker is left laughing, but asking himself, “What is reality?”—maybe it’s Harvey. Gruff Judge Gaffney, an hysterical Veta Louise Simmons, and potential old maid Myrtle Mae engage in a little Indian wrestling, parlor style. Harvey? Harvey! Where Are You? Amused by the evaporation of their candidate for a rubber room, Chumley and Gaffney listen to Wilson read off a list of the places he has looked for Elwood.

During these four years they have had many fun-filled activities and accumulated hap- py memories which will never be forgotten. The officers of their freshman term were: Al- lan Dart, Judy Nordmark, Rick Rankin, Jim Roberts, and Judy Schwartz. Their first class activity was a cupcake sale held on December 4, 1957. As high freshmen, Jim Roberts, John Dog- gett, Jon Harris, Rick Rankin, and Karen Scott were elected officers. The money-raising activity during this term was a cupcake sale held on March 12, 1958. They started their sophomore year by selling programs at a football game. Another activity shared by the class was a cake sale. The leaders that term were Jon Harris, Karen Scott, Leslie Mecum, Jon Cook, and Donita Bailo. In their high sophomore term they held thei long-awaited Soph Hop with “Lady Luck” as the theme. This dance, which broke all previous attendance records, was held on March 13, 1958. Manager Rick McCreery and Co-Manager Judy Schwartz gave a big assist to the class officers Mike Gannon, Judy Nordmark, Mack McCray, Penny Franchi, and Jeff Allen. As juniors, Rick McCreery, Diana Myers, Dena Lambi, Cathie Tilton, and Joan Logan were elected officers.

The boys’ jackets were academy blue and the girls’ blazers were fire-engine red. The class is now looking forward to their many high senior activities which are yet to come. These activities are under the direction of Tom Renshaw, Judy Nordmark, Mike Ney, Bill Doan, and Mack McCray. The entire class of June 1961 wishes to join in extending their thanks and appreciation to the faculty of Alameda High for guidance and thoughtful consideration which they have been hd . cans = shown throughout their high school years. i. ae Hf | HULL MACK McCRAY BILL DOAN JUDY NORDMARK Yell Leader Financial Secretary Vice President MIKE NEY Recording Secretary Our Memories Began in ‘57 JOAN BARKER—Mrs. Le Hew’s advisory; Span.

We had gone to school for eight years in preparation for this important event—Alameda High School. Our first activity in rigging up our class was election of officers. Our President was Don Ham- mond. Don Kriens was Vice President. The other officers were: Recording Secretary, Sue Hartly; Financial Secretary, Wendy Wehn; and Yell Leader, Stan Znoj. We finally got used to things, and for our High Freshman term we decided to sell pro- grams at the Alameda-El Cerrito football game. The class worked very hard and sold many pro- grams to make this project a tremendous success. We were now upper lower-classmen. Our leaders were: Thor Maydole, Pam Pellerite, ‘l’y- ler Berding, Stan Znoj and Marion Gilmore. High Sophomores means a Soph Hop, at last, and to top all Soph Hops. . . “Ebb Tide,’ under the command of Carolyn Adams, Crystal Arter, Fred Mendes, and Mike Fassiotto. “Roman Holiday,” our great Junior Prom, was given in our High Junior term and really made a big hit. The manager was Stan Znoj and co-manager Pam Pellerite. We were very proud of our Junior Sweaters, thanks to our BONNIE RANDALL CAROL REDDEN BRUCE SHEPHARD Vice President Financial Secretary Yell Leader MIKE FASSIOTTO Recording Secretary We've Had a Wonderful 4 Years STAN ZNOJ President manager, Stan Znoj and co-manager, Pam Pel- lerite. We all voted and came to the conc lusion of coal black for the color. Although our class was small we had more than our share of talent and outstanding per- sonalities. In our Low Senior term we gave our Senior Play, “Harvey,” an hilarious com- edy. Since our class was so small, everyone joined in and worked exceptionally hard. The play was managed by Mike Fassiotto and Misa Sato. It would be needless to name the cast and the of- ficers and the heads of committees. It is easier to say that everyone worked together for a won- derful production. The officers this term were: President, Stan Znoj; Vice President, Barbara Bakcock: Recording Sex retary, Doug Barry; Fi- nancial Secretary, Fred Mendes; and Yell Lead- er, Stan Znoj. Our banquet, teas, picnic, and especially our Senior Ball are coming up and really give us something to think about and look forward to in our High Senior term. Then there are other things such as Senior Hat and Sock Day, and one of the most important things, our jackets and sweaters. Put all these together and you come out with a wonderful Senior vear and a perfect ending to our high school life.

Che most thrill-packed game of the season was with our cross-town rival, Encinal. In the first quarter, Alameda scored on an end-zone fum- ble. Then in:the fourth quarter Al Dart charged over for a touchdown making the score 13-0. John Adams intercepted a pass and hustled 75 yards for another touchdown making the score COACHES—left to right: Mr. F. Kline, Mr. J. McMillon, Mr. B. Conner. 19-0. Encinal stormed back with two touch- downs but the scoring ended at 19-13, the Hor- nets again winning the Chamber of Commerce Trophy.

ROW IV: Mr. Barry Conner, coach. This year’s J.V. football team, under the ex- cellent coaching of Mr . Barry Conner, compiled one of the best J.V. records at A.H.S. They won six games and lost one. [he team was tough for any opponent on the other side of the scrimmage line. Every day they had to scrimmage against the varsity and then stay behind after practice to learn plays for their weekly games. Outstanding players were: John Read, Fred Hollinshead, Carl Zecher, Steve Hans, and Pres- ton Pritchard, to name but a few. With the good material and desire shown by this year’s team, the J.V. players should help to make another great varsity squad next year. Under the capable coaching of Mr. Bernadou and Mr. Lowry, the Soph-Frosh team had one of the best seasons since frosh football was intro- duced. They broke the all-time scoring record by scoring five touchdowns against DeAnza last season. Their record overall was one win, two losses, and two ties. This was a just reward for their diligent work. The team showed a tremen- dous amount of hustle. SOPH-FROSH FOOTBALL TEAM—ROW I, left to right: J. Dupre, M. Clark, D. Stone, P. Tripp, P. Franchi, J.

The team played 26 games during the season winning seven and losing 19. In the league, their record was 2-12. They played very hard at every Jerry Ortiz guards a Castlemont Knight in a close game. game and always maintained Alameda’s spirit. Only three juniors were on the team—Kit Gib- son Tom Smelser, and Tom Kish, so most of these players will be returning next year to form a solid nucleous of a potentially strong Junior Varsity team for Alameda High School. The J.V.’s have improved im mensely in the past year. Alameda High School is very proud to have such a high-spirited team. Rusty Slater is surrounded by two members of the opposing team. Skip Jackson and Bob DeCelle: tied for first place in a Cross-Country Championship meet. Gordon Yamamoto gains the lead in a cross-country race. The 1960 Hornet cross-country team turned out to be the best in A.H.S. history. Juniors Gary Coleman and Gordon Yamamoto, and Sophs Bob DeCelle, Steve Jackson, and Phil Wadsworth paced the varsity to a 10 won 5 lost center meet record and a 13 won 2 lost dual meet record. This is an amazing record for a team that was not expected to go anywhere at the beginning of the season. Only senior, Dennis Kain, team captain, will be missing from next years team. The highlight of the season came when the frosh-soph team captured the ACAL champion- ship. Alameda’s championship team consisted of the following boys: Steve Jackson, Bob DeCelle, Willie Poole, Joe Coll, Phil Wadsworth, Bob Hartsock, and Gary Martinez. Jackson, DeCelle, and Poole were named All-ACAL. Gordy Yama- moto won the school’s third annual Cross-Coun- try Pentathlon with a record of 1,860 points. CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM—ROW I, left to right: S.

The 1961 Alameda track team had its most successful season in several years as it finished the dual meet season with a 6 and 5 record. School records were broken in the shot put by Rich Zecher, in the B shot by Darell Saunders, and in the 1320 yard run by Bob DeCelle. Outstanding Hornet was Co-Captain Rich Zecher who averaged 10 points a meet with wins in the shot and discus. Bob DeCelle proved to be a most versatile runner. He won victories in the 660, 880, 1320, and mile run. Other outstand- ing winners included Gary Coleman, mile; Co- Captain Dennis Kain, 880; Paul Gallus, sprints and relay; Bob Leyes, 440 and relay; Carl Zecher and Dennis McElvogue, hurdles; Minor Chip- man, pole vault; Fred Hollinshead, 440. Alameda had a young team this year for only three men will be lost by graduation. This speaks well for future Hornet teams. Rich Zecher and his brother, Cerl, demonstrate their skill in hurdling.

All these boys are either freshmen or sopho- mores with one exception, and they should con- tribute greatly to forming a good varsity team next year.

The 1961 varsity and J.V. baseball squads found competition rough in league play. The varsity lost their first four games before they beat De Anza 12-5 and Pacific 3-1. The De Anza game turned into a rout as the Hornets smashed 14 hits to push across 12 runs. In the Pacific game Don Bovo pumped a 350-foot homer to left center with Don Hammond and Thor May- dole aboard for all three of Alameda’s winning runs. Harry Thompson was the winning pitcher as he scattered five hits, the only solid one being a bases-empty home run. Others who have played good baseball are Steve Fletcher, Ty French, Tony Bertero, Pat Conroy, Mike Clark, Bob Roventini, Don Wil- son, Bob Blanchard, Alan Baitinger, and John Anthony. The J.V. team had a fair league record this year. They beat San Leandro 7-5 and Pacific 9-3. Tom Smelser, Jeff Yamashta, and Jim Kelt- ner are carrying the pitching load.

No one could doubt the skill of this artfully arranged group of dancers. At Alameda High School, there are two clas- sifications of physical education. One classifica- tion is regular P.E. where sports are played. The other classification is modern dance. In modern dance the girls do exercises all period instead of playing sports. The girls do exercises to become graceful, and to limber up tight muscles in their body. Many girls enjoy modern dance, and one may always take it in- stead of regular P.E. Members of the advanced Modern Dance class contrive to make a graceful humcn design. The sponsor of the modern dance club is Mrs. Schwartz. She is the only modern dance teacher at Alameda High. The officers for the spring term are: Presi- dent, Linda Johnson; Vice President, Judy Schwartz; Recording Secretary, Holly Hart; Fi- nancial Secretary, Jan Briscoe; and the Board of Directors are Kathy Baum and Carol Hageman. Some girls in modern dance take it seriously because they plan to go into professional work after they graduate. Whether modern dancers cre coming or going they do it with form and poise.
