It is fitting then that We pay tribute to their accomplish- ments and that We give an active support to and interest in their policies and programs. They have Worked faithfully in our interest, advising moves for the greatest benefit to the greatest number of students within the limit of the money available, protecting the interests of the student body and school organizations, and promoting the various extra-curricular activities which have in the past year brought so much attention to Kern County Union High School. Of definite service too, was their efforts in passing the EB200,000 bond which will finance the much-needed additions to the Library Building and the improvements on the Girls' Gymnasium. Members of the Board of Trustees are: T. N. Harvey, H. D. West, C. F. Moore, W. J. Walters, A. D. M. Osborne. Mr. Marvin Davis resigned his position in the spring to Mr. Moore.

Not only has there been the usual increase resulting from young people staying in school longer, but there have come to us many transfers from other schools in all parts of the United States. We have been glad to welcome these transfers to us and to learn from them the work of other schools. As you all know, this increase in enrollment has brought serious problems in providing enough classrooms, merely to provide sitting down space. The bond issue for addi- tional buildings will, in a considerable measure, solve these problems. We can now work forward to a regular develop- ment of building to take care of enrollment. I wish to express my appreciation to the citizens of the community, to the Board of Trustees, the faculty, and the student body for the fine co-operation that has made Kern County Union High School outstanding among the schools of California. - H. A. SPINDT. KN . X X x N X . iff if The Administmtzon OME WORD of tribute is due from us, especially seniors, as students to the consistently co-operative attitude and the years of aid and advice the faculty heads and the office force of the school have given us.

The House of Representatives, started last year for guid- ing the school is still in effect. About once a month repre- sentatives of every club meet to consider new rulings and advances in school government. The football season was completed with an excellent Football Banquet arranged by the joint student bodies of the High School and Junior College. Mr. Bill Henry, sports writer for the Los Angeles Times, spoke at the dinner. Later dancing was enjoyed by those attending the affair which was held at El Tejon Hotel. An amendment to the constitution was proposed by the Executive Council and later passed by the Student Body, enlarging the duties of the vice-president to include the direction of the social program of the school. It was also decided by the group that no more gold or silver awards be given to the students. Instead, all those deserving recog- nition, be considered for the Annual Senior Service Awards. These were given at the end of the spring semester by the council, senior class, and faculty. Members of the Executive Committee this year are: President, Bob Sheldon, Vice-President, Paul Collins, Sec- retary, Bosamarie Gillig Editor of Blue and White, Jane Collins, Business Manager of Blue and White, Jack Corn- well, Editor of Oracle, Josephine J ewett 3 Business Manager of Oracle, Jack Cooperg Yell Leader, Ed Clanton g Advisor, Mr. Davy.

Freshman Class THE FIRST task that fell to this year's Freshman Class was the Hclean-up job after the Student Body Dance. The Freshman Stunt went over quite successfully after which a small party was given in honor of Norma Baker, mistress of ceremonies, Donald Mclntyre, master of cere- monies, Peggy Ross, Ralph and Raymond West, Anita Robertson, and others who had made the program possible. The class has been able to maintain a high scholarship average and made a good showing on the athletic field. The following fifteen freshmen are on the varsity track squad this year: Gardner, Cassell, Heard, Morikawa, Poulo- gianis, Plupps, Urner, Rice, Culberson, Trewhitt, Jurkovich, Himovitz, Bright and Trout. Several freshmen were on the class C basketball teams. Others made records in the Inter- class Track Meet. It has been possible for the first time to have what is known as a Freshman Orchestra, consisting of forty-tive classmen, under the direction of Mr. Phil Martin. About a hundred freshmen took part in their class debate tourna- ment. Council members are: Baker, Barker, Barlow, Brock, Brown, Burke, Burriss, Cliff, Culberson, Delpappa, Eberle, Bowen, Gribble, Harden, Hughes, Heimforth, Harvey, Landry, Lowery, McAteer, McClung, McCrew, McLean, Mickleberry, Moore, Maggenti, Rea, Renz, Ross, Surgent, Suorez, Theobald, Wiley and Woods.

Hart Sophomore Class THIS YEAR 1935-1936 was one of many events for the enthusiastic sophomores. The season of events was opened by the election of officers and council members. Next on the calendar of activities was the Student Body Dance, with the sophomores in charge of advertising. In October on the evening of the Driller-Loyola game, the Sophomore Blue Blaze Dance was held. A blue and White color scheme Was carried throughout the decorating. Santa Claus' Toy Shop was the title of the Sophomore Stunt. The program was one of dolls and toys, carrying out the spirit of the Christmas season. In the field of sports, the sophomores were well repre- sented on the football and basketball teams, particularly in the lightweight divisions. More recently in track events, the sophomores Won second place in the Inter-Class Track Meet, and have added invaluable points to the school's total points in the later meets during the season. The council members for the year were: Alderete, Alford, Baber, Bartenstein, Bunting, Castro, Cobb, Combs, Delfino, Etcheverry, Fontes, Franey, Garow, Hancock, Hand, Holliday, Martin, Smith, Jensen, Krebs, Miller, McAleer, McClintock, McLean, McNamee, Parker, Pasquini, Pensinger, Permenter, Potter, Rodriguez, Sanders, Shep- hard, Silicz, Warnock, McCormac, Horton.

F rances Delflno Junior Class ITH A new council and a new advisor, Miss Josephine Wiley, the junior class opened the year by the election of class otiicers early in the fall semester. Attention was then turned to providing refreshments for the Student Body Dance and to putting on their own yearly dance. The latter was called the Last Editionf' and was worked out in the newspaper motif with the walls of the gym papered with news sheets. Although the floor was not overcrowded, it was highly successful from the point of view of the guests and the class treasury. The Junior Stunt, presented in March, was a clever mellerdrammer,' written by Morton Block, a class member, assisted by others in the council. lt was entitled, Dirty VV0rk Comes Clean, or Love Conquers All in Three Parts. It was well received by two large audiences. Plans were made for a very successful Junior-Senior Prom. Council members are: Porter, King, Jackson, Warren, Cuneo, Brite, Morton, Benson, Stiles, Curran, Baldwin, Ashby, Heber, Holland, Paine, Reynolds, Thomson, York and Zuercher.

The seniors Wit- nessed and Won the annual Interclass Track Meet. The social functions under the competent advisorship of Mrs. Grace Pollock were appreciated by the entire class. The informal Farewell Dance was unique and attractive, the stunt, under the direction of Mrs. Storm, upheld the senior tradition with its originality and clever humor. At the end of a fruitful year the council and The Brain Trustf, the past members, enjoyed a dinner given by the class officers. The Baccalaureate and Commencement formed a fitting culmination of high school life for a class designed to per- form a Worthwhile contribution to the Work of the world.

FRAZIER SUE, LAWRENCE TERRY, FUGARD VAWTER, ELWIN WINN. JAMES Prophesy . Bakersfield, California, June 5, 1951. DEAR JOSEPHINE: Well, here I am at last. Had a wonderful trip in the new transport plane-arrived about 10 o'clock, and the only thing that made me feel at home was the heat! In this one day I've seen more of the old class than you could imagine, so naturally this letter is going to be ugossipyf' When I left the plane-who but Jack Cooper took my bags and taxied me to town-achatted all the way inMand he's just the same. He tells me Betty Mae Johnson has mar- ried the District Attorney, Don Glasscock. They're living here in a fine home, and right next to them are Mr. and Mrs. Pauly-Eloise of course. They have two small children now, and both of them are considered the essence of per- fectionf, Skip Blair runs the town's nniftiestn orchestra and cabaret, with Dot Johnson as his torch singer. Guthrie has Griff,s,, place as coach-had a championship team this year, too. He tells me that Marvin is coaching at Berkeley, the local boys are making good, arenlt they? Toots,', as we all know, is on her way among the celebrities at Hollywood. CTete a tetes with Garbob. Dee sells tickets at the Fox Theater and she spilled it that Mary Mac has settled down to be a spinister. She just couldn't make up her mind among the J. Cfs. Veda has left this town and is a promising', young model in New York. Who'd have thunk,' it! Torchy is a banker-gave up his musical career to be next to the money. g1 is principal at Emerson, and Virginia Cutland teaches kindergarten at Washington when shets not pining over Max, who I hear, is one of those shaggy-haired musicians, living like a hermit and compos- 1ng music. Robert Symmes writes risque novels under an alias, and is really doing well. Virginia Thompson fto go to one ex- treme to anotherb is with a gospel troupe, giving temperance lectures. Now, guess! Ham The Scampi' is running the good old hangout, t'The Campus Inn , and Jack Cornwell, who can't be seen, merely slips the hamburgers up on the rail. Art and Jessie are living on a farm near Visalia-he takes vegetables in weekly-and both are so-o-o contented. John Fanucchi lost his voice years ago in an accident and now teaches the sign language. Rose Lee Ellerd grabbed a New Yorker and is really the socialite of the season. Bee Aldrich resides on a coffee plantation in Brazil, a climax to one love affair about which this town knew absolutely nothing until she ups and marries him-handsome and wealthy is the only description. Prophesy Gretchen's still waiting for Rollin to get out of Stanford, and each year gets ready for the graduation and wedding. No luckaso far. Stewart Robb is a bachelor farmer. He hasn't forgotten his education though, for he often comes back to substitute for our able historian, Mr. Stockton. Alice Beauchamp-you remember how dissatisfied she was with her senior picture?-well, she's running her own studio now, and turns out everyone looking like Darlings. The one that holds sway in the office-in place of Dorothy Donahoe-is Gloria Morris. She's building bridges in her mind though, since Joe Dial became such a famous engineer. Carol Ambrosier has devoted the rest of her life to study- ing poetry, and blushingly admits that she writes some of her own. Frances Garrard, now almost unbelievably slender, has become one of the season's most talented apache dancers. Jane Collins and Jean Holman-still inseparable-have never lost their delight in an old car. Albert, long de- ceased, has been replaced by a De Soto, the first of those airflow kinds. Itis as bad now as Albert was then, but the two blissfully drive to work daily-theyire court reporters now. Ellen Craig, disillusioned as she was over her broken romance, finds consolation in watching the sunsets from her fashionable penthouse. Georgia, her sister, has the ultra- smart artist's studio in Manhattan-mentioned so much in John Besone's column-fthe successor to 0. O. Mclntyre. Nice going, don't you think? Dick Hunt has taken to the tropics. He couldn't endure so many blondes, so now the dusky colored maids lure his affections. Dorothy Keithley has surprisingly turned to politics. At the beginning of her career, as a Congress woman, radio technicians were forced to labor constantly, adapting their sound apparatus for her high voice. Squeaky insisted her speeches be broadcasted. Nonie, as everyone knows, is England's most brilliant stage success. Gossips say the Prince has his eye on her, but she-with her typical nonchalance-says she simply alfhors royalty. May we recall Puck's quotation at this time p ease. VVell, Josephine, if you have any difficulty in remember- ing Who's Who -drag out the old Oracle you edited in '36 and look them over. Me-I've got to get my column written, since scribbling to you doesn't provide me with a livelihood. You'll hear from me again soon. Here's hoping you donit feel as old as I did when I looked back and saw how far we'd all come.

Wilcox, advisor. The annual six-page football edition of the paper, which was enthusiastically received, was published on December 12 with Cherry Hering acting as editor during the temporary absence of Jane Collins. On Wednesday, April 1, instead of the customary Thursday, the Blu Gooz Noozf' special razz edition, was published, printed in green ink. Contrary to a practice heretofore adopted, the Blue and White was not entered this year in the journalism contest held annually at U. S. C., but was again entered in competi- tion in the Fresno contest in which it has Won first place cups for the last three consecutive years. It also was entered in the National Scholastic Press Association contest in which it received second class honor rating last year. The outcome of the latter two divisions have not been learned as yet. FIRST SEMESTER SECOND SEMESTER Jane Collins .................,..,,...,.,,.,,,,,,,,,...

Davy n S N1 in CGM California Scholarship Federation WITH A GREATER membership than ever before, 150 members, and an especially large number of gold seal bearers, this year should be an outstanding one for the California Scholarship Federation. The social activities began in September with a reception for new members and the election of otiicers. Early in October a Frontier Day party was given followed by a hay ride. The Fall District Meeting, at which we were well repre- sented, was held in Taft during November. A new system was initiated this year-that of having each class sponsor a social function. The seniors planned an evening banquet at the Drink-O-Link, and the juniors organized a treasure hunt and Christmas party in Decem- ber. The St. Patrick's Day luncheon, given by the sopho- mores in March, was very enjoyable. Decorations of green streamers and clover, and menus adorned with shamrocks added atmosphere to the real Irish program. The freshmen supervised a May Day party in the gym. The Spring District Meeting this year was held in Porter- ville, and after the regular business, consisted of a picnic followed by sports. Our chapter sent eight or ten delegates to the regular State Convention of the C. S. F. which was held April 25 in Watsonville. . OFFICERS President ..,..........

Emily Edgar Gzrls League THIS YEAR, in order to form a closer contact with its members, the Girls' League started a new system of board organization. In addition to the regular officers, four representatives were elected from each class-a president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. Under this plan more girls were able to take an active part in this year's activities. Besides giving their Semi-Annual Big alld Little Sister parties, entertaining at the Annual Fall Card Party, con- ducting two sport dances, and numerous other activities, the League carried on an active part in last ycar's Christmas charity work. The League sincerely hopes that this year they have helped to build up a closer union between the girls in the high school.

The clubas biggest accomplishments were the closing of F Street to insure safety to all students while crossing to the various buildings on both side of the street, and the campus clean-up campaign which directed the betterment of the appearance of the campus. , The Service Club ushers at all school assemblies, and whenever its services are needed at any other school function. The principles of the club are founded after the Knights and Squires organization of the Hollywood High School, which can be seen by the sweaters that they wear. The Knights consist of the juniors and seniors while the Squires are made up of sophomores, the club being open only to the three upper classes. The Service Club also has a special pin which they have just adopted this year. The Annual Service Club Semi-Formal Dance was held in May at the Kern River Country Club, open only to the members and to special friends. ' Jack Cornwell and Neil Ross are the only remaining charter members of the club.

Many sports were participated in includ- ing speedball, baseball, soccer, and volley ball. The class winners were decided by interclass games. The winners of the soccer and speedball games were the seniors. The idea of membership pins has been worked out. These pins are in addition to the regular awards of letters and gold pins. A play day at Taft was enjoyed by twenty members of our G. A. A., on April 25. It was conducted very Well by the Taft G. A. A. members and the J. C. athletes. Awards were presented to the winning players on that day. We Wish to take this opportunity to thank all of the gym teachers, especially our advisor, Mrs. Tener, for their splendid help.

It was organized for the sole purpose of creating more interest of boys toward high school sports and athletic contests. During the past school year the lettermen's club has been successful in carrying out different projects, such as erect- ing a grandstand during the Frontier Day Parade. The Annual Big B Dance, under the direction of Miss Rosemary Davis, proved to be one of the seasonls most popular hops. The second Animal Big B Banquet was probably one of the biggest social events of the school year. Besides the four major sports which are footfall, basket- ball, baseball, and track, letters were also awarded to the minor sports of golf, tennis, and to the rifle team. The boys other than the officers who helped make the Big B a success for the school year of 1935-1936 were Stephen Eyherabide, Tom Eddy, George Valos, and Joe Mosconi.

Their director and accompanist has been Miss Carol Buchner. Daily rehearsals were held which helped to bring out the perfection in their harmony. Their appearance with the Girls' Glee Club helped to add variety to the programs. P The trio was featured in the Girl Reserves' Annual Christmas Pageant with the assistance of Olsa Mae Wash- ingtong a radio program for the Exchange Club at El Tejon Hotelg Exchange program at Taft High Schoolg Masonic order programsg church programs, and also assist- ing the Boys' Glee Club at Rosedale School. Many outstanding songs have been sung by the trio dur- ing the past year. Colorful negro spirituals, and folk songs that typically represent the countries and many comical novelty songs have added humor to their widely varied pro- grams. Among these novelty songs is the Mother Goose Suite which has brought the girls nearer to their audiences. A very successful year was climaxed by the tri0's part in the Mother's Day Concert Tea.

They eked out a victory over the team from Santa Monica. This opened the first round of the Southern California Conference debates comprising the leading high schools in Southern California. At the second home debate before a capacity audience, Wayne Long and John Fanucchi were rendered a decision by a wide margin in the annual Phoenix-Bakersfield debate. The question debated concerned the abolislnnent of mili- tary training in high schools. The local Cadet Corps turned out en masse for the colorful debate. In the second round of the Southern California Conference Debates, Wayne Long and Dwayne Mears dropped a 2 to 1 decision to Holly- wood on the question of the abolislnnent of paroles in Cali- fornia. This proved in the third round of the Conference debates, John Fanucchi and Dwayne Mears retaliated by taking an unanimous decision over San Diego High School. This team on the trip to San Diego was accompanied by Wayne Long and Morton Block. An unofficial team debated Grossmount and Santa Ana, when Morton Block and Wayne Long debated both sides and added four more vic- tories to this year's squad total. Extempomneous Spealzzng EXTEMPORANEOUS SPEAKING began in the spring with the Southern California conference contest, in which John Fanucchi was entered, but failed to place. This contest was on the topic of Modern Day Education. Later in a meet to determine the county championship, John Fanucchi was nosed out by Lee Graham of Taft. Betty Zoe Porter placed third and Hazel Morton placed fourth. In the valley contest on the topic of Social Adjustment in Educationi' held at VVashington Union High School out- side of Fresno, Betty Zoe Porter tied for first with a speaker from Roosevelt High School from Fresno. In this co11test Lee Graham of Taft received a third place. In six years of extemporaneous speaking competition, Bakersfield, al- though beaten in the county, has always placed above Taft in the valley competition. At the State Tournament at Redlands, both Betty Zoe Porter and Hazel Morton survived the preliminaries and semi-finals, being beaten only by Beverly Hills and Taft. Miss Morton Won third place in the finals of the State Cham- pionship. Those going in for extemporaneous speaking are: John Fanucchi, Betty Zoe Porter, Hazel Morton, Marjorie Stiles, Jane Karpe, Boyd Lannniman, and John Besone. Clmmpz'0m'lz40 Last minute flash-On May 23, 1936, Jane Karpe, entered in the field of ten contenders representing the outstanding high schools in Southern California in the field of original oratory, won the All-Southern California Oratorical Cham- pionship for Bakersfield High School. Miss Karpe will receive a gold medal symbolizing first place. The school receives a gold loving cup. Miss Karpe spoke on A Century of Progressi' and developed the theme that although we as Americans have advanced in our sciences and arts we still cater to our baser motives of greed and selfishness and yet are not so far removed from our primitive ancestors. Omtory THIS YEAR in the field of original oratory Kern County Union High Schoolis speech squad had many par- ticipants. In the preliminaries to the Valley Championship, Morton Block, Ruth Kliewer, and Bob Sheldon delivered orations that placed Morton in valley competition. At Visalia, the valley contest, Morton Block received third place. At Redlands in the state speech finals, Morton Block and Ruth Kliewer represented Bakersfield. Morton entered the finals and scored very high. His oration on Youth Takes Inventoryi' was regarded as one of the strongest in state competition. The final oratorical contest sponsored by the Crusaders on What American Citizenship Means to Mei, drew the entry of the entire speech squad. In the Southern California Oratorical Contest, Jane Karpe repre- sented Bakersfield delivering A Century of Progress? Those competing in oratory were John Besone, Marjorie Stiles, Hazel Morton, Bea Pyle.

Bakersfield won for the sixth consecutive year the C. I. F. Valley Championship. In two debates with Laton High School, two teams composed of Block, Long, and Mears and Fanucchi, defeated an affirmative and a negative team. In the later part of March, nine Bakersfield teams jour- neyed to the Annual Fresno State College Debate Tourna- ment. At the end of the fourth round, five Bakersfield teams were eligible to go on, three of these without any defeats. As only two teams could represent any one school, Block, Long, Morton, and Stanfield were chosen to enter the other rounds. After seven rounds of grueling debating, Morton and Stanfield met a fresh Modesto team who had partici- pated in only four debates. The result was that the tired girls closed the debates at half-past ten at night by losing a 2 to 1 decision. At the Annual State Championship Tournament held at Redlands, two boy teams composed of Long, Block, Mears, and Fanucchi were entered in the two- day competition. Although winning their way to the semi- finals, Fanucchi and Mears were rendered a 2 to 1 decision losing to San Diego, a team previously defeated in Southern California Conference competition. Although third place winners all are not usually accorded the privilege of attend- ing the National Speech Tournament, Bakersfield in recog- nition of the conditions existing at the state tournament and in recognition of good sportsmanship was given the honor of a special invitation to go to Oklahoma City. However, the team did not attend. Szerm League SOPHOMORES of Bakersfield and Taft with the four classes of Delano, McFarland, Shafter, and Wasco, compose the Sierra League. This year the sophomores of Bakersfield placed second in the field of debate. The ques- tion on the policies of the New Deal was the subject of the first round of debates while the field of medical economics was the subject of the second round. The other fields of competition include extemporaneous speaking and original oratory. A Sierra League debate tournament to be held at Bakersfield was postponed indefinitely as the result of several schools being unable to attend. In the field of original oratory, Bill Kitchen placed first and Minnie Lee Warnock placed seco11d i11 intra-squad competition for the cup offered by the Orantes Forum chapter of the National Forensic League. In the Sierra League contest held at Wasco, Minnie Lee Warnock placed third in a field of more experienced competition. This year a new coach has taken over the sophomore squad. Robert Wright comes to Bakersfield from one of the best speech universities on the Pacific coast, the College of the Pacific, at Stockton. Here Bob debated Bakersfield Junior College several times, and through these encounters was discovered by the speech department at Bakersfield. In all of his work this season, he has proved a valuable assist- ant to Mr. W. K. Peterson, in providing students experienced in the fields of speech. The sophomores who compose the Sierra League at Bakersfield are: Frances Thaddeus, Minnie Lee Warnock, Harriet Ann Patton, Margaret Thaddeus, Louise McLean, Ruth Whitson, Mary Opal Burns, Edith Baker, Ethel Davis, Marion McDonald, Bill Kitchen, John Schutz, Kenneth Hastings, Robert Westfall, Robert Hammet, Winnie Hand, Earl Miller, and Barbara McLain. .Quit Orantes THIS CHAPTER at Bakersfield of the National Forensic League has become the most outstanding in the entire state through its active speech program. The members advance in national rating through credit points earned by participation in competitive and noncompetitive speech activities. The chapter at Bakersfield has earned a special distinction by presenting a degree of state honorary mem- bership to the person making the greatest contribution to the speech program in California. Professor E. R. Nichols, of Redlands University was presented a gold N. F. L. key, the symbol of this honor, at the final banquet of the state tournament by the Bakersfield chapter. Mr. Leo B. Hart was presented the N. F. L. key as a degree of chapter honor- ary membership. Bakersfield was instrumental in getting several other high schools to enter this national group. One of the social projects sponsored by the Orantes Forum is the Debate Luncheon Club which builds a stronger friendship with visiting schools. This club also builds better relationship between the various public speaking groups in the high school. This activity fosters the development of speech aims and social contacts.

In all of the years of coaching, whether it be football, baseball or track, Griff has kept pace with all of the developments in the game. In 1935, the outstanding development in the field of football was the wide open use of the lateral pass. The progressive coaching staff of Kern County Union High School has 11121116 it one of the truly outstanding high .schools in the state in athletics. I11 the opening game of the season, the already powerful Drillers outcharged, outkicked, and outran the Orange Pickers t'ro1n Porterville. The following week the Drillers met our rivals from Santa Maria. The game was a stiff fight throughout and only the barking of the gun averted a potential score by the 6'Saints.,' San Luis Obispo next met defeat at the hands of four strings of fighting Drillers. The game ended with the score of 48 to 0. The Drillers neggtxem- barked to Covina for their first game away Accompanied by 200 rooters the Drillers i11vadeafi'the'l5g,V 23551e field of the highly touted Colts.,' During tlge gamlffhe Drillers led by Marvin Mosconi and Jack Guthrie used the latteral pass to good advantage to run up the score to 26 to 0. In this game, Mosconi broke loose and ran 72-,yards through the entire Covina field of tacklers to make a second touchdown. The next opponent of the Drillers was a very strong team from Loyola High School. After a hard fought M, e-.,! rl Drzller Football half, the score stood at 12 to 7 in favor of the Bakersfield players. The next half was the deciding period of the game in which the Drillers were unable to stop the Loyola offense, and lost the game on the strength of two conversions. The Drillers next inet an under-rated team from Long Beach. The entire first half was scoreless. The Bruins scored first with two Driller scores coming in time to give the victory to Bakersfield. The traditional game with Phoenix was next on the Driller schedule. On a muddy field, the Drillers met the fighting eleven at Phoenix. Although the Drillers out- gained the Coyotes, a Phoenix pass was the only score of the game. r r ffiw VALOS JUNG BARBOSA BARBOSA SOLIS O'CONNER MOON YANCEY MOSCONI GUTHRTE XVI LLIAMS SIMON TOWNSEND KERAN NVATSON FRICK GARDNER PEREZ CONDLEY HARPER LUEDER C OWAN Us ggt .. i .gf -- , if U egiigewggqg Hg-wa? .C- '.

The Drillers led a one-sided attack throughout the whole game. The line smashes of Guthrie and the open field running of Mosconi were the high spots of the gallle. The chalnpion- ship was won by a wide margin and the Drillers won the right to meet Fresno for the Semi-Valley playoff. This game played at Griffith Field was won in full stride by the Driller juggernaut. The Semi-Valley game had been under way just a few ll1011l6l1tS when Mosconi encircled the startled Warriors to score standing up. Mosconi repeated the score in the second quarter with Jung following after intercept- ing a Fresno pass. The last quarter gave almost all of the Driller strings a workout and as the gun announced the end of the game, the right to play in the valley finals was securely in the hands of the victorious Drillers. same f alley Game FOB THE THIRD successive year, the Drillers have brought to Bakersfield the coveted San Joaquin Valley Championship. On Hanford's home field, the determined Drillers, supported by several hundred fans who chartered a special train, lnarched over the Bullpups goal line for three tallys. The Bakersfield backfield clicked perfectly and the line functioned with polished precision. The All-Valley Team chosen by the coaches of the valley included six Drillers. They are: Valos, L. G., Brubaker, R. G., Solis, B. T., Moon, B. E., and Guthrie, E. Mosconi, B. H., was rated as the best prep backfield man produced in the valley for his combined kicks and open field running.

Football PERHAPS TO MANY, George Williamson seems to be new, but to Kern County Union High School, George is well known, having played under the coaching of Grill , in the 20s when state championship teams were the thing. George was one of the best boys on the prep team. He left Bakersfield and held down a position on the U. S. C. Tro- jans. In 1934, George returned and now he is furnishing material well seasoned in the fundamentals of football to the same coach that taught them to him. Although failing to keep the remarkable record intact, the 1935 edition of the Sandabs had a highly successful sea- son. The training given to many of these undergraduates will serve them well when they fill in the gaps in the Driller ranks. Although the Sandabs played three early season games with heavyweight teams of the county, the games with Class B teams of Southern California proved to be a bigger bite than the Sandabs could chew. They downed the Class B team from Burbank by a very narrow margin, but the game the following week was lost to a Class B team from Long Beach Polytechnic, a Southern California Con- ference winner. The Sandabs avenged a Driller loss by beating the Loyola lightweights. The county lightweight championship game was lost to Taft for the first time in six years as the Bobcats had the strongest aggregation in many years. In considering the year from the after value, the Sandabs still had a very successful year in developing much needed Driller material. .Lfd'7A-f nm a qi..

I. F. playoff. Throughout the season the Drillers showed sparks of basketball ability by defeating Delano, McFarland, Y. M. C. A., and other teams. Coach Griffith had a difficult time trying to choose a team which would work together. Through the different arrangements he finally selected the combination of Captain Marvin Mosconi and Eugene Grif- fin, forwards, Joe Mosconi, center, Warreii Allan and Richard Heber, guards. With these he started most of the games. Another thing that slowed Griff's basketball season was the influenza epidemic, delaying basketball practice for two weeks during the middle of the season. Other material which Coach Griffith made constant use of was Perez, Smith, Guthrie, Heffernan, Harris, and Valos. DRILLEB BASKETBALL SCORES U Bakersfield Delano, 34. Bakersfield Visalia, 32.

Both games were probably the most thrilling contests witnessed by basketball fans this season. In the first game the middleweights lost by a score of 28 to 26. After their first defeat, Coach Haralson improved the basketball tech- nique of the boys and made ready to clip the ears off the Bobcats in the next game. During the first half of the game it looked like a sure victory for the local boys who led their rivals with a score of 18 to 10. But as usual, the lucky last minute attack by Taft gave them a victory of 23 to 20. Throughout the season Captain Steve Eyherabide was the dead-eyei' of the team, while Frank Andrews followed closely behind. Robert Zuercher and George Galland played a consistent game at the guard posts. Howard Rus- sell and Manuel Valdez were always among the starting five. Others who played on the middleweight team were: Santibanez, Marantos, Fanucchi, .Gillette, Shively, and Weaver. CLASS ES Middleweights, 485 Delano, 10 Middleweights, 325 Visalia, 13.

VALDEZ ZUERCHER ANDREWS GALLAND EYHERABIDE iCapt.J Class C Basketball SINCE THEY WON the county championship from the Taft Kittens, this class would have probably gone farther if they had participated in more championship play- offs, however, George Wlll131l1SO11,S lnidget quintet closed the 1936 basketball season very successful. Only once during the season were the peaweights vic- tims, when they were conquered by the Delano Bees with a score of 21 to 20. The highlight of the season was the Class C boys defeating Taft by winning two consecutive games and being crowned county champions. Bakersfield took the opening game on the home court by a score of 13 to 8, with Harold Urner, a freshman, totaling half of the local points. Willian1so11's boys continued win- ning and feated the West Siders by a score of 20 to 14 in the second game. Once more Urner starred for the C's. Piloted by Captain Ercle Sceals, the peaweights un- doubtedly made the most remarkable record that any Class C team has made for many years. The team which was composed of J ack Porter, center, Harold Urner and Ernie Loeb, forwards, Ercle Sceals and George Tatsuno, guards, was the liveliest bunch of beginners ever witnessed by the basketball fans during the season of 1936. They defeated the Hi-Y Class B team by a score of 24 to 5. In this game Loeb played the outstanding game, but also shared the high point honors with Urner. They triumphed over Delano by a score of 29 to 14. Loeb and Urner were again the high scorers. Continuing victoriously they defeated Shafter, Maricopa, McFarland, and the Methodist Church team. The second team or the remainder of the squad which was composed of Cobrera, Willmont, Bowen, Flint, Valdez showetd good basketball ability when they were sent into the game to relieve the first team.

Haral- - son,s sprint and weight stars again conquered the County Championship Track Title. Although Taft pro- duced one of the most outstanding Class A teams in a long period, Bakersfield was successful in winning all three classes in the county meet. The sturdy little Driller miler Frank Bondshu continued his outstanding distance running, while the varsity squad showed much improvement over last year. Fred Frick be- came Haralsou's ace timber topper and discus thrower. Combs improved his broad jumping ability and Mosconi developed into a good low hurdler. Other outstanding Class A performers were Williams, B. Trout, J. Jurkovich, Hood, Francis, Brandon, Daly, Goodman, Jones, Mohr, and O'Con- nor. In Class B Gillette, Trout, Jurkovich, Lee, Mackessey, Trewitt, and Robesky were outstanding. The strong Class C team was made up of Tobias, Heard, Poulogianis, Rice, Freise, and Phipps. Besides winning the county meet, the local tracksters also annexed first place in the Bakersfield Relays, Tulare Relays and Fresno Relays. They placed second i11 the valley meet and Davis meet. The climax of the Driller track seaso11 occurred when the local cinder stars won for the second consecutive year the Tenth Annual Fresno West Coast Relays. The crew of eight determined 1936 tracksters scored to edge out Hanford and Taft. COl11bS won the broad jump and Jones the javelin for the only two first places, while Jurkovich tied for first in the pole vault. Frick placed second in the hurdles and third in the discus. The Medley Relay team composed of Mosconi, Mohr, Rice, and Bondshu placed second. 1 J MOHR GILLETTE A GOODMAN WILLIAMS TROUT TOBIAS COMBS MOSCONI PHIPPS W7 Tennis ALTHOUGH the turnout for tennis is increasingly small, this year's team can say that they have the best girls' team they have ever had. The girls' doubles team, Hend- rickson and Shaw, swept through all competition into the Valley Championship. Mary McNa1nara won the County Singles Championship. , Stuart Lovelace advanced through the Semi-County Championship to defeat Shafter. At the Fullerton and Ojai tournaments our players made excellent showings. Golf THE GOLF TEAM of 36', had a very prosperous year. Led by Captain Bill Mickey they managed to Win all their matches and also to capture the Valley Golf Meet. Those representing K. C. U. H.

The slugging diamond men Won a total of seven games and lost four. The Drillers opened the season by defeating Delano and continued to win three straight games. They were defeated by San Luis Obispo, but were victorious over Santa Maria while on their coast trip. On the home grounds, the local boys defeated San Luis 5 to 3, but lost to Santa Maria. Varsity Yell Leaders THE YEAR OF 1936 finds in .the office of Student Body Yell Leader Eddie Clanton with his able assistants, John Besone and Francis Verrell. As a group they were present at all of the major games except Phoenix. John BGSOIIG was in charge of and present at all of the Sandab games. Eddie took charge of the annual Taft rally and all three attended the victorious Taft game. The student body of 1936 wishes to thank Eddie, John, and Francis for their part in building and maintaining interest in student body activities during the past year. JGSH .if f. -, JF A if- f 5 I.

VVe care not if we hit you where The texture of your garments lightly hang Neither do we crave the pardon Of each hopeless, luckless one Who scans each page in vain to find His name in jest or pun. What though the tenor of our humor Was twice strained, It strained us who gave, If straining you who take, We only add, we're glad If these bum breaks have made you sad As we who made the book. Here is a rule without a doubt On which your hopes to anchor, No girl can be considered stout If revolving doors don't spank her. lf you can't laugh at the jokes of the age, Laugh at the age of the jokes. Lives of great men remind us We can make our lives sublime, And by asking foolish questions, Take up recitation time. RULES FOR TAKING EXAMS Enter the room nonchalantly. If there's a very smart kid in your class it might be well to slip hin1 a quarter. Go up and kid the teacher. Whatever you do, appear at ease. Joke with those around you. Be sure to have plenty of paper, any extra will come in handy. When the teacher says separate, get an extra seat Well up in the front. This will throw her off her guard. Roll up your sleeves to show you have nothing con- cealed. Whe11 you get through be sure to separate all paper out of the loose sheets that might prejudice the teacher against you. Look carefully around you at everyone else before you leave the room. Tiptoe from the room and slam the door behind you. Temperance, my boy! . . . Adonis . . . Passed over . . .
