June - 1931 THE GALLEON TONY MATULICI-I MARTIN KOZARICH LEO FERROGGIARO Custodian Athletic Manager President Emeritus HENRY TANI HAROLD VICK GEORGE ROSENBAUM Business Manager, The Galleon Yell Leader Editor, The Galleon the set of encyclopedias and increased the fund for the purchase of blankets for our athletic teams. We have chosen as our name the Buccaneer, a name worthy of representing our school. Our social life has been well developed. The dances given were fully enjoyed. Our first term play was a great success. Sports were seriously considered. It has been said that the strength of a school lies in its athletic teams, and at the rate We are going We should soon be the I-Ierculean school. I must add that athletics, as a form of recreation, gives one a Well-developed body as well as a strong mind. Athletics are an asset to any school. Maintain your spirit and co-operation, and Balboa shall never fail. Finally, I wish to express my grateful appreciation to the student body and oHicers for their earnest support and hearty co-operation in the social and athletic events in the past term, and to the members of the faculty for their unfailing advice and assistance at all times. ERNEST ENGEL, President. Twenty-one

June - 1931 THE GALLEON LORA PETERS WILLIAM PALMER CATHERINE COLE HENRY MATHEWSON Secretary President Vice-president Yell Leader Low Seniors, Fa111930 UNDER the leadership of President William Palmer, Vice-president Catherine Cole, Secretary Lora Peters, and Representative Henry Mathewson, the low seniors enjoyed a successful and most interesting term. There were many activities during the term, but the real highlight of the term was the Boston Tea Party. The willing aid of the faculty and the splendid management of Miss Pauly, combined with the co-operation of the class, put over the party in great fashion. Entertainment was supplied by members of the senior class, the faculty, and Student Body. A short play, M071 Mid Wife, a one-act farce on doubting wives, was given by members of the dramatic club under the direction of Mr. Brown. A tap dance was pre- sented by Eleanor Smith, with Miss Aced, accompanist, then a dance by four seniors, Catherine Cole, Alice Crowe, Kaye Ford, and Helen Hawkins. Mr. Roy McCarthy entertained with several songs. Refreshments were served under the supervision of Miss Woodruff by a stag of willing workers. The party came to a close with a Hourish of good tidings and happiness. Each guest received a hearty handshake and a warm send-off by our president. During the term, two members of the June '31 class, president and secretary of the Balboa Students' Association, and members of the faculty, acted as a committee to select the school symbol and pin. A sixteenth century ship was selected as the symbol. The pin which was recommended by this committee and approved by the Board of Directors contained the ship. The first senior sweaters to be seen in Balboa were of navy blue, trimmed in orange, with Balboa ship in felt just above the pocket and J '31 on it. But alas! the term drew to an eventful close with the award rally. The fourteen bold seniors walked upon the platform to be viewed by the entire student body, and received a welcome that made them glad that they were the class of June 1931. Twenty-three
