This person, along with the parent, has the job of bending the mind of the child in the direction which the child will follow for the rest of his life. The decision, whether the child will follow the path of justice and peace or the path of injustice and chaos, depends largely upon the education he receives in today’s public schools. We at Alameda High School are extremely fortunate in hav- ing a staff of teachers which stands for freedom and equality. For many years Miss Grace Powers has rendered unequalled services to both the students and the school. She has been the OAK LEAF advisor for many years, and was also the Dean of Girls. Dr. John Peoples, besides rendering services to the school, has written a textbook which is now in use in many of the na- tion’s finest high schools. In appreciation of their many works, we, the students of Alameda High School, dedicate the 1962 ACORN to these two fine people. Editorial In the past fifty years man has reached a level of scientific achievement unequalled in the history of mankind. His acts have been limited only by a boundless imagination. He has made real, ideas that his forefathers thought crazy. Spaceships, atom bombs, atomic submarines, and radiation used for curing once- thought incurable diseases have all arisen from the depths of man’s imagination. By broadening his scientific horizons, however, man has, we fear, nearly lost sight of the everyday life which surrounds him. He has become more and more like the machines which he has built. In an effort to recall a little of the wonderful life which is constantly moving about man, we have chosen as the theme of our annual, the “human comedy.”’ By words both serious and in jest we hope to bring man’s thoughts back to the little things that make life the marvel that it is. We invite you to share with us a view of the life of the students of this school, only one portion of the human comedy. 4 ete) ii i : fa + i Jar te oT | E Ri fi | Pak YM yf CN 4 el ) 2 | ! : N ‘id )SCHOLASTI ey | ANIZATI SPORTS, 5 Ds 1i24 i | Shall Expect of You a Depth of Mr. Lowell W. Mell performing some of his many duties. Robert G. Sproul, President Emeritus, University of California, quotes from one of Alfred North Whitehead’s books—‘‘The art of progress is to preserve order amid change and to preserve change amid order.” He then indicates that this is the major challenge con- fronting the world today, especially the young men and women in our high schools and colleges. ‘The faith and confidence of Americans in their ideals and democratic life give us the basis for order and value in our lives. Ameri- cans have always found expression in the in- stitutions that have perpetuated these ideals. Their high school experience is one of the most important media through which the student has had an opportunity of increasing his faith, knowledge, and sense of values, not only in himself, but in his school, community, and country. No other institutions are better qualified through their strength and resili- ence, their goals, their basic values than the high schools of America to meet the chal- lenge confronting the world today to preserve order amid change and to preserve change amid order.” The 1962 ACORN is a treasure-house of high school memories, friendships, and_ac- complishments where students and faculty have recorded, through picture and prose, the progress of their achievements. It is with pride that I express my personal thanks and heartfelt appreciation to M_’liss McCutcheon, editor; Karen Terao, assistant editor; Laurie Howard, business manager; their staffs; and to Mrs. Patricia Nicolson and Mr. Bruce Tingwall, editorial and busi- ness advisers, respectively, for their many extra hours of hard work and devoted effort. Lowett W. MELL, Principal Understanding One May Not Expect... Superintendent Dr Donald M. Roderick busy at his desk. “The sphere of education is one of the many worlds where much is to be done, and little to be known.” Few students realize the tremendous amount of work done behind the scenes by the Board of Education. By keeping abreast of the latest education- al techniques, Dr. Donald M. Roderick and his staff are doing a fine job of affording the best education possible for the students en- rolled in Alameda public schools. Serving on the Board are: Walter V. Howe, Mrs. Lee Cavanaugh, C. Dean Ramsden, A. Hubbard Mofhtt, Jr., and as President for the past twenty-seven years, Dr. Donald D. Lum. Dr. Roderick, who has been Superintendent for ten years, is aided by Assistant Superinten- dents Harold Eifert and Charles Briscoe. ‘Thanks to the Board, those of us attending Alameda High School are being instructed by some of the best teachers in this area. We enjoy language labs consisting of tape re- corders, earphones, and tapes in French, Spanish, and Latin. We also have the oppor- tunities to take part in new courses in the philosophies of world governments, their his- tories, and effects in today’s world. We are also given more hours of counseling than ever before. Though we may not now recognize the fact, we owe thanks to the Board of Edu- cation for giving us the opportunity to be- come well educated citizens. Members of the Board of Education standing left to right are: Mr. C. Dean Ramsden, Mrs. Lee J. Cavanaugh, Mr. A. Hubbard Moffitt. Seated: Dr. Donald D. Lum, president; Mr. Walter H. Howe. Our Administrators and Counselor Vice Principal Dr. James Snell and Dean of Women Mrs. Helen Hoeksema How would like the responsibility of mak- ing out over 1800 program cards a year? Dr. Snell; our vice-principal, must not only make out a program for everyone in the sc hool, but he must also make any necessary changes. By late October, he had already made over 600 such changes. Dr. Snell’s other duties include acting as head counselor for the Men’s Board of Con- trol and doling out any disciplinary measures that he deems necessary. He says he sees about 20 or 30 boys each day. After spending several years at Encinal High School, he finally “earned his wings” and was promoted to the GREAT Alameda High! “Hey, lookie here, my picture!” ‘This is a common cry of many Alameda High School students when passing the office of Mrs. Helen Hoeksema, girls’ vice-princi- pal. Among her numerous student interests, Mrs. Hoeksema exhibits student photo- graphs. Because students like to see photo- graphs of themselves, Mrs. Hoeksema obtains these from the Times-Star newspaper. As girls’ adviser, Mrs. Hoeksema is in charge of the Woman’s Board of Control, Girls Association, and Courtesy Board. Aside from her busy schedule, she enjoys boating and playing the organ. Receiving her B.A. at Parsons College, Iowa, Mrs. Hoeksema went on to get her M.A. from Mills College in 1942. Ever since then, our school has been fortunate to have Mrs. Hoeksema in our administration. Mr. Robert Bartley, head counselor, smiling at his desk. MRS. BEATRICE ANDERSON MR. CHARLES BUTLER MRS.

All of this food is consumed in one day by the hungry students at A.H.S., Lincoln, and Porter Schools! In order to bring to you.a nourishing meal, the cafeteria squad must work long and hard. Besides preparing meals, the staff also washes the pots, pans, trays, dishes, and silver- ware that are used throughout the day. Over 750 dishes are washed in one day; very few are ever broken. Mayonnaise is purchased in four-gallon jars; pickles in five-gallon drums. The prices for a meal or a snack in our cafe- teria are very reasonable. Where else in Ala- meda may you get a grilled cheese sandwich, made with real butter, for only fifteen cents? Our cafeteria staff deserves a vote of thanks. Members of the cafeteria staff are (from left to right): Many Delicious Goodies Another busy group is the maintenance staff. Scraping furniture to scrubbing floors —these are only a few of the jobs performed by the Alameda High maintenance staff. Oth- er duties, such as sawing locks and repairing broken windows round out the range of their activities. The staff is divided into a morning shift of three men and a woman and an after- noon shift of thirteen men and a student. Last summer the members of the mainte- nance crew refinished the gymnasium floor All of the work—sanding, sealing, and paint- ing—was done by our staff members. Without the cooperation of the whole maintenance team such an effort could never be accom- plished, Members of the custodian staff are Les Camper, Harvey Struif, Russel Bishop, Carl Greenhouse, Reese Lamond, Ruel Crocker, Aster Smith, Frank Schuester, Delmar Wills, Frank Lackner and Al Lorenzana. Mrs. Helen Kikes, Mrs, Norma Poggi, Mr. John Jordan, Mrs. Varene Laird, Mrs. Beatrice McCreery, Mrs. Jean Johnson, Mrs. Betty Taylor, Mrs, Barbara Millar, and Mrs. Alva Mason.

These industrious women keep our school well organized They are: ROW I, left to right—Mrs. Sandra Rigsby, general office; Mrs. Esther McClara, school bank, Mrs. Mary Smith, main office. ROW II: Mrs. Ruth McFeron, main office; Mrs, Helen Arfsten, book room; Mrs. Kay Dobl, school bank The office staff of our school is the unseen force which keeps our school functioning well. The women in the attendance office are responsible for keeping count of absences and issuing passes and permits to leave school. They send out notes to people whose mothers have called. They make innumerable reports on a daily and weekly basis, and they make out reports on absences. On the average there are about 650 ab- sences a week, or about 125 to 130 absences a day. Every one of these absences must be cleared through the attendance office before the students may be admitted into classes. On a typical morning from 50 to 75 students clamor for passes and permission to make phone calls at the attendance office desk. It takes calm and efficient persons to cope with such a situation daily. The three women in the main office work very hard for our school administrators. Mrs. Ruth McFeron works for Mr. Lowell Mell and does his record work and makes up the bulletin every day. Mrs. Mary Smith posts grades on records, issues and sends transcripts, and does other such tedious jobs. Mrs. Sandra Riggsby works for both Dr. James Snell and Mrs. Helen Hoeksema, doing their reports. jinn l Guess I've Grown Up.

The class of 1963 presents its past. We en- tered school in September, 1959, and our first activity was the Freshman Dance, a tremen- dous success. We had a cake sale, and we sold programs at the football games. Of course, we all cheered for the Hornets. In our sophomore year we again had cake sales and sold programs at football games. But our biggest thrill was presenting our great Soph Hop, “Corsair,” on April 14, 1961. Then we settled back and contemplated be- ing upperclassmen and choosing our junior sweaters. ‘Then came our junior year! Our studies were harder, and we worked harder than ever before. But we survived. Finally we put on Heading the junior class for the spring semester are from left: == Doris Canepa, yell leader; Carol Costa, recording secretary; Cindy Suehs, vice president; Peter Keim, president; Herb Klein, financial secretary. our junior sweaters—grey cardigans for the girls and ivy green cardigans for the boys. Next we had a cake sale, and once again we sold programs for the football games. Then came the news that we could have our senior rings and jackets for a year instead of just a semester. ‘The elimination of mid- year graduation made the change possible. Just think, we are the first class to be “the ultimate’’ for a whole year. Our Junior Prom was the biggest thrill of the whole year. Few will forget their ‘“Eve- ning in the Orient’”’ on May I1, 1962. Now we are looking forward to a grand senior year, complete with our senior play, jackets and rings. We know that this year has been great and our senior year will be even greater. MRS.

The fall semester they elected Dick Hove as president, Marilyn Sabatini as vice president, Suzanne Stilbert as recording secretary, Ken D uering as financial secretary and Jill Roye as yell leader. Their selections for the Ad Board also proved exceptional. They were Rich Williams and Judie Nelson.

The 1962 Soph Hop, which was managed by Don Carmody and Pat Woton, was pre- sented April, Friday, the 13th. No wonder it was named “Superstition.” The dance had a very large turnout, and everyone went away bewitched. To help finance the dance, the class held a successful cupcake sale at which they sold some very delicious cupcakes. All in all, the sophomore class has had a very successful year, and it is looking forward to its junior year at A.H.S.

Thanks to our Men’s Board of Control, it is now safe to walk down the halls of Ala- meda High School without getting hit by a speeding student! The Men’s Board of Con- trol has finally succeeded in slowing down speeding students who wait until the last minute to zoom to class. In the past many students have suffered injuries due to run- ning in the halls, but the danger has now been cut toa minimum through the efforts of the Men’s Board of Control and Dr. Snell, advisor. The last few minutes of every football game have always been hectic, with students running for the gate “before the mob gets there.”” The cheerleaders, with the coopera-- tion of the Boards of Control, have succeeded in keeping the students in the stands at the end of the game. This was done not only to control the crowd, but also to allow the cheer- leaders and students to cheer the whole foot- ball team. The fall officers were ably led by Tyler Berding, chief counselor. He was aided by Mark Hartwig, first vice-counselor; Arnold Mew, second vice-counselor; Dennis Smith, recording secretary, and Paul Hoekenga, ser- geant-at-arms. The spring offices were under the guidance of Mark Hartwig, chief counselor.

This hard working organization is kept busy throughout the sc hiool year with a large variety of activities. In the fall and winter, the band supports our football and basketball teams with its peppy music. Their instru- ments are kept active by their participation in student assemblies, parades, and concerts throughout the year.

At Alameda High School Mrs. Carol Cederleaf has a big job—train- ing and helping the Junior and _ Senior Choirs, the Glee Club, the Vocal Ensemble. These groups sing on different occasions, sometimes in competition but mostly for en- tertainment of many local organizations. The Glee Club is a group of selected sing- ers which performs for the public when it is asked. The Junior Choir is a training choir. Members learn the fundamentals of music. They develop their voices and learn to ap- preciate music. The Senior Choir is a big group—from fifty to seventy members. ‘They sing annually at the High School Sing at the University of California in October. They vocalize every year in our annual Christmas Pageant, and they participate in the Spring Concert. ‘Their melodious voices are enjoyed at the different grammar schools in our city. They sing at the eighth grade indoctrination. The Vocal Ensemble is the most advanced group. The members are much in demand. They sing in the High School Sing at the University of California, in the Christmas Pageant at Alameda High School, at different grammar schools and public functions, and at teas, dinners, and various organization meetings. ‘Twenty to thirty-five members are in the group. T hese members are eligible for the Honor Choir at the University of Califor- nia. The Madrigal Singers and soloists which the student body hears come from this group.

The pageant provides an excellent oppor- tunity for many of the students to partici- pate, if not in the actual cast, on one of the many committees. The pageant utilizes the talents of the art classes in designing sets, of the choir, of the Modern Dance Club, of the sewing classes in costume designing, and of those students who supervise the cast’s make- up. All in all, the annual Christmas Pageant is a group project involving many of the stu- dents at Alameda High School. As the opening sentence implies, the theme of our last Christmas Pageant was “‘Joy to the World.” It opened with a group of “‘citizens”’ discussing the possibilities for an imaginary high school in an imaginary town. As most of you will remember this scene was rather ridiculous, but it is not a very great exaggera- tion of the agonies that the directors, set de- signers, and costumers had to go through in order to organize the pageant. Our Christmas Pageant was presented to both the student body, and to the public. Those who saw it said that it was one of the best ever presented. “Delightful” was the word for the GREAT Senior Play, ‘““The Happiest Millionaire,” by Kyle Crichton. This comedy centered about the family of Anthony J. Drexel Biddle, a real-life family, and was taken from the book My Philadel- phia Father by Cordelia Drexel Biddle and Kyle Crichton. The play was originally shown on Broad- way and won wide acclaim. Critics called it “funny and ingratiating’, and our produc- tion was every bit as good as the Broadway show! Anthony Biddle devoted much of his time . The Noble and Ridiculou to many bizarre interests. He trained thou- sands of U.S. Marines in deadly hand-to-hand combat, and, in his spare time, wrote Froggy Fairy Tales for children, and taught Bible classes to over 300,000 men. He was also known to keep alligators in his backyard! The play took place between September, 1916, and June, 1917, at Biddle’s home, 2104 Walnut Street, Philadelphia.

The play was set at Custer College, a small co-educational institution in the Middle West. The play centered about Custer College’s star basketball player, Ray Blent, portrayed by Mike Martin. At the time the play opened, the basketball game between Custer and Its arch rival, Ash- more College, was fast approaching. A few racketeers entered the scene and of fered Ray a bribe to “throw” the game. Ray desperately wanted to return the mon- y, but d id not know to whom he should give it. Ray decided to do the “ethical” thing. In- stead of keeping the money and winning the game, Ray purposefully flunked an exam, thus becoming ineligible to play. The audience was held in suspense when, The World and the at half-time, Custer was losing the game. ‘The climax of the play was the point at which Ray entered the game at half-time and led Custer to victory! After he had won the game, he and his girl, June Ryder, portrayed by Vicki Butler, elop- ed, le nding a note of nuptial bliss to the play.

Alameda High Students Receive Many Honors Youth City officials are: Linda Johnson and Arnold Mew. Absent from the picture is Stan Znoj. Representatives at the Model United Nations were (left to right): Linda Throp, Diane Gray, Cindy Suehs, Herb Klein, Ronnie Perlstein, Karen DeCelle, Ann Leffler, and Paul Hoekenga. With so much emphasis placed today on politics, whether world, nation, state, or city, several organizations have formed conferences where teenage students may receive practical experience in politics and government on all Ivels. At the city level of government one finds Alameda’s own Youth City Week. For one week each year two or three students are chosen from each high school in the city to spend a week learning about Alameda city government. This year Alameda High School had three representatives: Stan Zn0}, who served as councilman; Arnold Mew, who served as manager of the Chamber of Commerce; and Linda Johnson, who served as a councilwoman. Experience in world government is gained each year by student representatives to the Model United Nations. Here much knowl- edge is gained of the manner in which this great peace organ functions and of the various nations represented at the United Nations in New York. Alameda High School’s represen- tatives this year were: Karen DeCelle, Bob Godfrey, Diane Gray, Paul Hoekenga, Herb Bruce Henschel and M’liss McCutcheon went to Girls’ and Boys’ State. Klein, Ann Leffler, Ronnie Perlstein, Cindy Suehs, Bill Taylor, and Linda Throp. Each year one girl from each high school in California and from one to ten boys from each high school are given the opportunity to live for a week with other representatives from this state for a conference called California Girls’ and Boys’ State. During this conference, which is sponsored by the American Legion and the American Legion Auxiliary, the boys and girls form their own functioning city, county, and state government according to the statutes of California. All phases of gov- ernment and politics are experienced exactly as they take place in actual politics. This vear’s representative to Girls’ and Boys’ State 61 were: M’liss McCutcheon, who served as a Superior Court Judge; and Bruce Hen- schel, who served as chairman of the Agricul- tural Pro-rate Committee Another honor is bestowed upon one girl at Alameda High School each year by the Daughters of the American Revolution. This girl is chosen for her contributions to her city and school. Congratulations to this year’s D.A.R. Good Citizen, Jan Briscoe. Jan Briscoe D.A.R. GOOD CITIZEN We Honor Our Scholars Life members of the C.S.F. are (left to right): Bob Walker, Linda Johnson, Janet Brown, Kathe Russum, and Paul Hoekenga. These students maintained high scholastic averages. To become one of the highly honored lite members of the Star and Key Honor Society or the more distinguished California Scholar- ship Federation a person must pass these not- too-easy requirements. For a life membership to Star and Key a hard-working student must be a member of Star and Key for three consecutive paid-up terms or for four non-consecutive paid-up terms. To be eligible for this club, students must have a “B” average which also means that the students are on the honor roll. A stu- dent when determining whether or not he can join may also consider the fact that he can count his physical education or R.O.T.C. grade. As a special bonus the life members of the Star and Key Honor Society receive a red seal on their diplomas upon graduation from our great school. ‘This red seal is a symbol of the hard work students have put into their studies. This red seal represents many long hours of pouring over books for homework and tests. The Star and Key club members are very much respected but the California Scholar- ship Federation members are the very top students in scholastic achievement. These people not only work and study for hours and hours, but they also usually have an extracur- ricular activity such as baseball, football, membership in language clubs, or service clubs. This. as everyone might imagine, takes up quite a bit of time and these students must adjust and plan their time to fit everything in. Besides all this, these students also tutor the other students. Very few people receive life memberships to th California Sc holarship Fderation. These students must have a score of ten points which are based on grades. ‘The “‘A’s” count three points, the “B's” count one point, the “C’s” do not count, and “D's” count a minus point. Obviously these people must get practically straight “A’s”. ‘To be- come a lime member a person must keep up this record for three consecutive paid-up terms or four non-consecutive terms. When counting points these students may not count Physical ducation or R.O.T.C. grades. They receive gold seals on their diplomas. There outstanding students are life members of the Star Key Honor Society. '.. Someday I'm Going to All th The dream utmost in almost every romantic teenager's mind is that of seeing the world. Paris and the Eiffel Tower, Greece and the Parthenon—all gleam brightly, if far away in the mind’s eye. For two lucky students at Alameda High School this dream came true. They were given the honor of repre- senting Alameda High School and the United States as exchange students in Europe. Kathe Russum spent six months of this school year in Paris, France. Linda John- son spent the summer months in Messolongi and Athens, Greece. They were two of many student ambassadors sent to Eu- rope and other parts of the world by the American Field Service. This organization ably handles the tasks of sort- ing the many applications received, arranging means of travel, and obtaining good homes for the young men and women. The American Field Service, by promoting world understanding and friendship, is helping greatly toward our gaining the goal of a world of unity and peace. We at Alameda High School are privileged to have a foreign exchange student living, studying, and participat ing in activities here. Renate Bednarik comes to us from Vienna, Austria. Although Alameda’s atmosphere differs greatly from that of Vienna, we hope that Renate feels a warmth in her heart for our island town. The under- standing gained from hearing from and talking to people such Renate, Kathe, and Linda is invaluable. Through them and through the stories of their experiences we may all, at least partially, fulfill our dream.

The money used by this group is pro- vided by the students who contribute to the annual Red Cross drive in the spring semes- ter. ‘he club’s money goes to the National Children’s Fund to help needy children all over the world or the occasional needs of Alameda High School students. ‘The money is also used to send a representative to the California State Red Cross Conference, fur- nish supplies to help in the Oak Knoll Hos- pital, and contribute to the American Field Service. The activities of the Red Cross are very worthwhile. ‘They had a party for the re- tarded children at Porter School. ‘They made A Helping Hand to All In Need Christmas decorations for Oak Knoll Hospi- tal. On March 10, the members of the club went to the Bay Area Youth Conference at the College of Marin in Kentfield. They went to the art exhibit at De Young Museum in San Francisco. At the museum there was a display of paintings from foreign countries. Then on March 22, they held a program for the student body meeting where they had an exchange of paintings from foreign countries. The annual Red Cross Drive took place dur- ing March 26 to March 30. The officers of the Red Cross were: presi- dent, Cathy Hurst; vice president, Diana Mil- ler; recording secretary, Brenda Gates; finan- cial secretary, Louis Dorfman; publicity chairman, Mary Ann Weller.

Masque and Sandal is a newly organized club under the sponsorship of Mr. Lloyd Sisler and Mr. Richard Dare. The purpose of the club is to advance the study of drama in A.H.S. Many students who have taken drama have found this course most interesting and most profitable. Drama tends to develop self- confidence and voice control. Some students become so enthusiastic that they choose drama as a career. Several famous actors have had their start in acting at A.H.S. Interested students formed Masque and Sandal early this year to promote drama in the school. A “ooodie’ ’ sale was held to get the club on its feet. Shortly afterwards the ar 1 club presented a humorous skit for the school’s talent show. ‘The club then lent its full support to the success of the school’s first All-School Play. Members also presented two one-act plays for the Ade lphian Club and the student body. To become a member of Masque and San- dal, a student must have performed or worked backstage in a production presented for an atidience.

The membership is open to any student, boy or girl, in grades nine through twelve, who shows an interest in any of the medical fields. The club has gone on two field trips this year. The first was a trip to the Samuel F. Merritt Hospital in Oakland. During this trip the students were taken on a tour and shown how a hospital is run.

Our Golf Team Is On the Ball Members of the A.H.S. golf team are (row one, left to right): Mike Johnson and Bob Blomberg; (row two, left to right): Stewart Williams Ross Randall, Dennis May, and Tom Tribou. The season for our Hornet golf team started out on a fine step, as Stewart Wil- liams banged a hole-in-one. This fine drive highlighted an excellent year for the team which won the ACAL golf championship for an unprecedented fifth consecutive time. Che team, under the fine coaching of Mr. Calder Hayes, was led by Denny Plato (the best golfer in the ACAL), Ross Randall, Mike Johnson, Bill McCall, Stewart Wil- liams, and Dennis May. It is very encouraging to realize that every- one of these boys will be back in school next year. Plato, Randall, Johnson, and McCall will be seniors; Williams and May will be juniors. It certainly looks as if the school’s golfing future shall be bright for many more seasons. Our golf team is on the ball. The Team Makes a Lot of Racquet in the The members of the tennis team are (row one, left to right): Calvin Mew and Zac Johnson; (row two, left to right): Arnold Mew, Tom Kiss, Ron Beberniss, and Bill Reynolds. The Hornet tennis team, under the head coaching of Mr. Marvin Pearson, was sparked this year by number one player, Ron Beber- niss. Ron, along with Bill Berge, number two man, and ‘Tom Kiss, number three man on the squad of fourteen, led the team to five records in ACAL competition. The team played ten matches in league competition. A player may score as many as twenty points for a personal win. He also re- Arnie Mew shows quick reflexes. ceives twenty points for a team victory, five points are given, if the team loses. A boy may earn his Lluck letter in tennis by accumulat- ing one hundred fifty points, an average of fifteen points per match. Athletes who earned letters this year are as follows: Ron Beber- nis, Bill Bevge, ' l'om Kiss, John Muskar, Rich Diola, Arnold Mew, and Ron Magnuson. Of the seven block winners, only three w ill grad- uate. Thus, the outlook for Alameda tennis is bright. Ron Magnuson serves as Arnie Mew watches. A Careful Aim Ihe members of this year’s rifle team were, Ed Eisen, Dick Thurman, Bill Johns, ‘Tom Thurman, Gary Turner, and Harry Sharp. The instructor and coach was Master Ser- geant Robert V. Lambert. High scoring man this year was Ed Eisen. The team did very well at its matches this year. Out of 59 teams competing at the Arms Area Indoor Small Bore Rifle Matches, Ala- meda took seventh place. Out of 136 teams, including college teams, competing at the Army William Randolph Hearst ROTC rifle match, Alameda High took sixth place. ‘This year Alameda High and Oakland had a thriv- ing year. Alameda High participated in ten Led Us to Victory rifle matches against different Oakland high schools. Out of these matches, Alameda High won six and lost four. In the Bay Area, which includes all the high schools, the rifle teams of the nine Bay Area counties, Alameda’s team finished third. During the season the rifle team was invited to travel to Reno, Ne- vada, and competed against Reno High School, a very high ranking team. When we were done, the Reno team knew it had met its conquerors. Our school is very lucky, for next year we have four veteran rifle team members coming back. They will be Eddy Eisen, Dick Thur- man, Gary Turner, and Harry Sharp. Members of the A.H.S. Drill Team salute you.

A Different World, a Better World, a Better MIKE MARTIN MONICA ORTON Vice-President CAROL HAGEMANN Financial Secretary As flustered freshmen, we first greeted Ala- meda High School on September 10, 1958. We soon organized and elected Don Bovo president of our class. His cabinet consisted of Linda Johnson, vice-president; Paul Gal- lus, recording secretary; Mickey Lufkin, fi- nancial secretary; and Vicki Butler, yell lead- er. In the spring of 1959 we held our first money-raising project—a cake sale. Our class was ably led by Linda Johnson, president; Joan Cattran, vice-president; Laurie How ard, recording secretary; Dave Oyanagi, finan- cial secretary; and V icki Butler, yell leader. In the fall of 1959 we elected Dave Oyanagi to head our Sophomore class. He was assisted by Bruce Hicks, vice- president; Mike Gor- man, recording secretary; Kitty Ramsden, fi- sgn secretary; and V icki Butler, yell lead- . When Dave moved to Washington, Mick- ey Lufkin took over the presidency.

Thanks to the hard work of Paul Gallus, manager, and Laurie Howard, co-manager, our class had a record- breaking Soph Hop. On April Fools’ Day, 1960, we presented the memorable dance, “The Joker. After two long years we returned to Ala- meda High Sc hool in the fall of 1960 as up- per lassmen. Guilding our junior class were: Arnold Mew, president; Mike Gorman, vice- president; Jan Ebert, recording secretary; Sue Wakelee, financial secretary; and Carol Hagemann, yell leader. Mustard colored car- digan sweaters for the boys and champagne colored classic slipovers for the girls were chosen as junior sweaters. Carl Zecher and Vicki Butler led our class in this activity.

Pat Conroy and Linda Johnson were manag- er and co-manager, respectively, of the event which spotlighted the spring term of 196] On May 12 we presented our Junior Prom, ‘The Lost City.” The ereat temple in the jungle, the beautiful waterfalls, and the sun calendar are only a few of the lovely decora- tions which carried out our Aztec theme. In the fall of 1961 we again returned t Alameda High School, but this time as glori- ous seniors. Leading us in our low senior ac- tivities were: Mike Martin, president; Mon- ica Orton, pk ig ie Helen Ainslow, recording secretary; Carol Hagemann, finan- cial secretary; and Dixie Collins, yell leader. Nn November third and fourth, 1961, we presented our great senior play, “The Hz appl- est Millionaire.” Few will forget this play which was under the capable management of Arnold Mew and De Ann Ekins. At the end of the fall term we chose navy blue jackets for the boys and yellow blazers for the girls. This was under the le: idership of Jan Briscoe and Bob Hamilton. ' Le iding our class in our high senior year were: Pat Conroy, president; Mary E len Bell, vice- president; Cheryl Jones, recording secretary; Mark Hartwig, financial secretary; and Lynn Carlile, yell leader. Our high sen- lor activities were many and memorable. On May 25 we had our Senior Picnic at Castle- rock. Our Senior Ball, “At the End of the Rainbow,” was presented on June eighth. These activities were followed by our Bac- calaureate which was held on June tenth, and our Senior et. pe which was held at the Claremont Hotel on June twelfth. On the night of June fourteenth, 1962, we reached our ultimate goal in high school—graduation. Looking back on many fond memories, and before we say good-bye to all, may we say that we hope that we have helped to create “A dif- ferent world, a better world, a better people, a better way of doing things.” PAT CONROY President MARY ELLEN BELL Vice-President MARK HARTWIG Financial Secretary CHERYL JONES Recording Secretary LYNN CARLILE Yell Leader LAURIE HOWARD Best looking girl MIKE MARTIN Best looking boy MARGARET GANNON All-around girl PAT CONROY All-around boy GO SHERYL JONES Best actress SALLY SQUIRREL Toughest Girl DON BOVO Best Athlete BRUCE HENSCHEL Boy most likely to succeed LINDA LEE JOHNSON Girl most likely to succeed DON JOSEPH Best actor PENNY ABRUSCI—This high-stepping majorette hopes to conduct a class one day.
