SCHMAELZLE Campus cut-ups are numerous among students on any high school campus, but Balboa has its own clever member on the administrative staff, in the person of O. I. Schmaelzle, whose sense of humor and friendly appeal have endeared him in the heart of every Buccaneer, girls and boys alike. As boys' dean, O. I. S. is a serious- minded, straight-shooting friend and consultant as well as a happy humor- ist. Emphatically, he believes that one will receive just what one earns, so O. I. S. spends his spare time think- ing up new ways of earning a lus- cious chocolate cake from some unsus- pecting student, all in fun, of course. It is to this member of our friendly administration that the Buccaneers sin- cerely say, Thanks for Everything. ROBERT R. CLI-IASE Principal Aafmzmkimiom ROBERT R. CHASE When it comes to having Seven Wonders, our mad universe delin- itely has nothing on Balboa. Yes sir- ree, this old alma mater is simply bubbling over with the things, first and foremost being a principal that is truly the mosta of the bestaf' Buc- caneers have come to accept Mr. Chase as more of a fellow companion than an administrator to be attended with great pomp and ceremony, someone to be shown Sunday manners. One achievement administrators far and wide strive for is that feeling of friend- liness that is so warmly dealt out by students who love and respect the per- sons whose task it is to help them through the trials of coeducational days. As far as Buccaneers are con- cerned, and there are more than a few of them, for tops in administrators they'd nominate Robert R. Chase, all-around friend and leader. 1-nga IRENE M. PAULY Vito Prinfifml IRENE M. PAULY Discover a school with one really wonderful administrator-that's a possibility. Unearth an institute of learning possessing not one but three good heads, and that's news. Miss Irene Pauly, kindly girls' dean really does her part when it comes to giving Balboa just such a reputation. More than one campus wall-flower has blossomed into an active Buccaneer through her sympathetic understand- ing.Miss Pauly is one of those few real persons who possess an undefeatable desire to turn the mere observer into an ardent doer. Firm of heart, our girls' dean has carved a place in the heart and affec- tions of each Balboa miss. So hats off to another popular administrator.

Yes, those three little words describe Al Race to the proverbial Arriving in Balboa in spring ,36 from Monroe, Al immed- iately began carving an athletic niche for himself in Alma Mater's portals. Succeeding so tremendously in his sportsmanlike qualities, Al decided to take a whirl at the political side of high school life'. Having had a mild taste of an executives duties, which he ap- parently liked, when he served as low seniors boys' representative, Al took the fatal step and landed right smack into the heart of every Buccaneer. Yes, when it comes to presidents, Al is tops, as both the feminine and masculine population of Balboa will agree. AW ff . L GIFFIN G. MERTA D. HEWITT J. SKINNER R. SKINNER W. STEENBERG R.

Success was inevitable, for the Board was composed of elected officers representing classes and students at large who possessed initiative, ability, and a high degree of loyalty. Executive duties were capably handled by President Al Race and Vice President Lois Giffin. Through the action of the Board, students saw a revival of Hello Day which went over with a bang. In a school the size of Balboa, it is hard for students to become acquainted with all the other students, so Hello Day has as its purpose the making of new acquaintances which perhaps will develop into life-long friendships. In order to make school dances more enjoyable, members of the Board attended all of the affairs and encouraged dancing. At games these officials turned out with rooters' caps and were a source of inspira- tion for the rest of the school. The usual clean-up campaign seemed perhaps a bit more successful than in previous terms in that a cleaner campus was evi- dent most of the time. In order to raise money for repair and renewal of stage equipment, a Talent Review was presented by Max Liss on December 8. Following Balboa's previously adopted plan of stressing Americanism through the flag raising ceremony, the Board of Directors decided, upon the advice of Student Council, to put into effect the idea of having each registry give the Pledge of Alleg- iance at the beginning of each morning's work. The saluting of the flag, however, was to be done vol- untarily so that no false patriotism would be brought about by a compulsory salute to the flag. The idea, PAGE FOURTEEN and Bama! . . . ian... .LN,,. So that Balboa may be a truly demo- cratic student-governing school, the Board of Directors is composed of eight elected Student Association officers plus the president and rep- resentative of the various classes, and other officers, named in the Con- stitution to that body. Into these willing hands fall the task of mak- ing the laws by which the Buccaneers are governed. BOARD O H, VASSMER R. SECHINI E, LOPEZ M. RICHARDSON Yell Leader Student Court judge Burumeer Editor G.A.A. Prerident . by the Sf however, met with enthusiasm and has been cheer- fully carried out through the term. The ofhce of publicity manager was proposed and adopted, the duties of which office include giving publicity through bulletins, newspapers, posters, and the like, to school activities handled by the Board. This appointment will be made each semester by this body from a list of recommended students. Jack O,Brien has capably handled the new position this fall. Student government, quite different from what members of the past generation saw when they went to school, has proved a great step in the edu- cation and character of youth today. High school students obey laws that have been thoroughly ex- amined and voted on by their representative body. This brings about a feeling of loyalty and pride instead of resentment. Most valuable of all in D. JORDAN R. PLYER student government is the teaching of boys and girls, while they are still young, not to vote blindly, but to weigh each measure carefully. All of this brings about a better citizenship of tomorrow. Besides regularly-elected officers of the Board there are three faculty advisors, Miss Pauly, Miss Silvia, and Mr. Heinz, who may be highly praised for the splendid cooperation they have shown. The Board, not being able to face problems which need the careful consideration of an adult mind, take into consideration the opinions and advice of the carefully-chosen sponsors. E With a new term ready to dawn 'on Balboa, another Board will soon be elected. Members of the old Board will be forgotten, but you may be sure that the individual that is forgotten by Balboa will not forget the term he was part of that school's government.

Vg. f HIGH SENIORS High-and-mighties will have officially left Buc- caneer-land in a few days with their official and hon- orary discharge from the crew of the good ship Galleon, leaving behind a glowing record of achieve- ments in the ship's Memory Log, which will be hard' for any class to surpass. At the time of issuance of this, their last Galleon, the group is still looking forward to the Senior Breakfast in the school caf', to that supreme mo- ment, one of the greatest in their lives, when they will walk onto the stage of the Opera House to re- ceive their diplomasg and the last great social affair, the Senior Ball. It was a very difficult task to choose, out of this class of over 300, the two to receive the crowning honor of their high school years, but Helen Ander- holm and Robert Lundquist were selected on the basis of scholarship to give the valedictory and salutatory at commencement. So with lingering thoughts of good times spent together, Balboa bids the class of January V40 fl fond adieu. LOW SE I RSf Running the class of J i econd when it comes to achi ments, the graduates of june '40 appear to have work as their by-word, for the low seniors have been active in every phase of school life. Most of the time allowed in weekly meetings went by without entertainment so that every minute could be given over to discussion of important class problems. The senior party given by the low seniors in honor of the high twelves used as its theme Harvest Festival, which was en- tirely different from any in the past and received praise. Outstanding in sports, mainly football, were such students as: Red Jensen, head man of the grid- iron, who also played on last term's championship baseball nine, Walter Pipko, Pat Castellano, and jim and jack Hughes, also prominent in varsity basketball. Comprising the majority of the Honor Society, as well as most of the journalists, the class of june '40 was an important mainstay in Balboa's wheels of progress.

Tony Bosnich, Pete Davis, Robert Dillon in football, Gerald Cresci, jim Skin- ner and Ken Mooslin in track are always in the thick of the fray. Low juniors having patterned their activities after the seniors have been instrumental in encour- aging participation in school affairs. On the roster of this active group are Norma Peterson, Doris jordan, Roger Plyer, and Margaret Abbett in schol- arship g john Russo, football, and Harry Michelsen and Rudy Marzi, varsity crew. jack Bramy, presi- dent, was also chief official of the group when they were low freshmen. SOPHOMORES High sophomores, or, as they put it, the high- and-mighties of the lower division, have been am- bitious in setting an example for other lower divi- PAGE SFVFNTEEN sion classes to follow. Ed Goldman, class president and able orator, believes sincerely that, School is the preliminary bout that prepares for the main event, that of making a livingf' Low sophomores have brought favorable attention to themselves this term primarily by supporting the clean-up campaign. FRESHMEN When one thinks of the high freshman class, the name of Paul Varoff is outstanding, largely because this chap is out to break the record of big brother George who holds an international record in his sport, pole-vaulting. The freshman dance, given as an inducement to let these students who are fairly new to Balboa get acquainted, was a success, and members anxiously await another affair of its kind. Youngsters of the school gave the reins of leader- ship to Donald Lee, who has started his charges out in the right way by entering into sports and school activities. 'They quickly became adjusted to the size of Balboa, and, much to the dismay of their older friends, found out that Balboa has no swimming pool. eil? i f , ,1,, eff! M ' X, K i y 1 X Q..

In order to qualify for the local chapter, a pupil must procure a minimum of ten honor points, at least eight of which must be in classroom subjects with not more than two in extra-curricular activities. Honors which are extended to these students in- clude a gold seal on the diploma, the starring of the name on the commencement program, and the use of an honor pass on the campus. Term's officers were Ed Lopez, president, Anna Laterza, vice president, Elma Oddstad, secretary, Clare Sanguinetti, treas- urer, and Mr. Snow and Miss Rivers, advisors. BOYS' BLOCK BU SOCIETY Recognizing students who have gained the re- PAGE NINETEEN quired number of points in the f1eld of athletics, or have played on championship teams, the Boys' Block BH, under the leadership of Bob Antraccoli, and supervision of Mr. Hill, has been prominent in campus work this term, and in the fostering of school spirit. The semi-annual sport fest and ban- quet, two highlights of the semester, were great successes. GIRLS' BLOCK B SOCIETY To be of service to Balboa and to give recognition to girls who have won their block in sports, is the purpose of the Girls' Block BU Society. Members assist in the physical education equipment room, ushering at the school rallies, and in general mat- ters of campus welfare. Bernice Strube, efficient president, has been aided in the society's work by Audrey McCauley, vice president, Ramona Castell, secretary, Joyce Peckham, publicity manager, and Miss Todd, sponsor.

Good entertainment or else-or else off with your headf' Witli these stinging words ringing in their ears, a theatrical troupe which had been shipwrecked on a mysterious island wanders forth to do or die. Such is the setting for the fall '39 Senior Jinx. With Queen Suzanne McFall's words prodding them on, the troupe sets out to please and save their necks or break them in the attempt. judging by Queen Susie's disposition, the latter was the more probable outcome. Kenny Allen, wisecracking master of ceremonies, gives his all for the cause, that is, all except a few goggle-eyed-glances at the princess, Viola Christensen. He is even willing to rise against the black knight, Tibby Ortega, to win her hand in matrimony. Competition between islanders and city folk is keen with songsters and 'irug-cutters vying for honors. Art Raab and johnny, his Charlie McCarthy, showed that the cinema capitol had nothing on him, by proving to the islanders that her sour majesty still had a laugh left in her framework.

Master Allen was sure that Queen Susie had been won over after talented Angela Pryor's hula dance, but the islanders had their own interpretation of the dance, and little john Sartor and his colleagues presented humorous competition for nimble-footed Angela, which almost broke up the show. Even after various entertainers, including Mildred Giusto, Lorraine Bruhn, Ed Sirianni and others had thrilled the islanders with their golden voices, the queen's decision to behead the visitors was un- changedg C. Fields Vawter's silvery gift of gab was not enough to melt that icy heart. But what was that? The Queerfs loyal QU subjects didn't agree? Boil her in oil was the cry, and so a happy ending to an enjoyable Jinx. 'Miflfiflffj ADVANCED ORCHESTRA BLUE BOYS GIRLS' CHORUS BROXVN, FOYE, CIUNFERMANN, WIELAND Balbo li College. . Echoes of gay young voices singing merry melodies, of swinging strings and booming brasses come daily from the department in school dedicated to music. A capable staff of teachers, headed by Mrs. Norgard, give the boys and girls training in mixed chorus, girls' voice, boys' voice, orchestra, band, and harmony. When representing Balboa at the games, the band has given a good account of itself this football season. The band has also done its part in showing school spirit at pre- game rallies and victory rallies. Under the direction of Mr. Kinkel, with Salvatore Viscuso as bandmaster, the band has added zest to the rooting section with the lively tempo of its marches. The band does not limit itself entirely to marches but includes overtures, and selections from operas in its repertoire. Good marching form was shown on many occasions. Music for dances, parties, and the Senior Jinx was pro- vided by the Blue Boys. This group of dependable and loyal boys deserve much credit as their rehearsals and performances are held after school hours. Led by Salvatore Viscuso, the boys, in their dark suits and black ties, look and sound like a professional dance orchestra. The blending of soprano, tenor, and deep bass voices have made a delightful combination in the mixed chorus this term. Under the guidance of Mrs. Norgard, boys and girls of the mixed chorus had a grand time with gay and lively melodies such as Schubert's Alleluia, The Kye Song of St. Bride, and Hold Out Yo' Light, a Negro spiritual. Some of the outstanding voices included in the chorus belong to Barbara Beebe, Dorothy Wieland, Don- ald Foye, Russell Brown, Audrey Farrant, Dorothy Cunfer- mann, and Winther Anderson, The boys and girls practiced PAGE TWENTYJTOUR cg, 4, BOYS' CHORUS RHYHARDSON, ANDERSON, CHENEY, FARRANT MIXED CHORUS BAND Of Marital Knowledge hard and gave splendid performances, thrilling all of us with their harmonizing at the Armistice Day Assembly and the Christmas program. From the orchestra room come overtures and symphonic selections. Under the baton of Mr. Billeci, the orchestra has kept its place in the entertainment world, performing at several night school and day school assemblies, most important being the Move-up Assembly and graduation. A brand new set of tympanies fkettle drumsj was received from the Board of Education. Orchestra members are proud of their new music blocks and are working hard in appreciation of them. Something new was started this term in the form of a girls' quartet of string instruments. Barbara Warrender and Christine Johnson play first and second violins, Mary Jane PAGE TWENTY-FIVE Landi, viola, and Elma Oddstad, 'cello. Carmeta Sacchi accompanies on the piano. The lovely voices that form the girls' chorus have added many moments of entertainment to assemblies. The chorus represented Balboa in music competition at the Univeristy of California on October 21. Boys' chorus, under the direction of Miss Robinson, sang at assemblies. Songs studied by the chorus were, Pale of the Amber West, Wl1o is Sylvia? and Go Down, Moses, a Negro spiritual. The theoretical classes of the music department help the young composers toward their success. Miss Robin- son's harmony class deals with the study of chords, scales, transposing and creative writing. The history of music class goes into the origin of the different instruments, sym- phonies and the like. fn I ENID STOUT FIRST DAY AT HIGH SCHOOL FROM THE GREAT CAREER JUNIOR DATE PROM THE GREAT CAREER STAGE CREW GV6d5tZDdZ.WZ, Fooilzgghig Cothurnus Players may boast of an enthusiastic and successful part in Balboa's fall '39 showboat with student actors displaying unusual, well-trained talent under the able and gracious sponsorship of Miss Anna May Price. First drawing of the curtain was on The Great Career, a series of tableaux, which tell the story of a girl from her childhood days, through school on to her marriage and motherhood. Outstanding in this drama was Valerie Larson, who acted as commentator. Hats ofT to Virginia Hunter, Enid Stout, Nauman Davidson, Bob johnson,A Bob Von Glahn and others who did superb work. Second drawing on November 21 ushered in three one-act plays: i'Daily Bread, My Lady's Lace, and The Ring and the Lookf, My Lady's Lace, comedy which took place in a Holland garden about 1660 A. D., concerns a young girl who is being forced by her father to marry a man not of her choice. After much pleading, the girl wins out. Credit goes to Lydia Riedener, Jane Warshawski, Jim McGill and Charles Howard, who did excellent comical as well as dramatic acting. The Ring and the Look found another amusing situation taking place in the living room of the Tuttle residence at the present time. This story deals with a lady-killing youth who gets himself into difficulties with his lady love by lending the ring he gave her to the leading lady of the school play. Prominent in this production were: Bob johnson, Angelina Lopez, Margaret jane Halonen, Elmina Bontempi, Vera Premenko, Joe Silva, Virginia Hunter and Madelyn Palmer.

Yes siree, this alma mater is really an everlasting boiling pot of activity. Buccaneers really bear down when it comes to doing things, and so, Balboa is simply over-run with interested visitors. Along about the middle of the term, one of these fre- quent tourists breezed into the main ofiice, admitted he was John Q. Public, and said he wanted to see if all the things he heard about Balboa were true. Mr. Chase grabbed one unsuspecting student and told him to hustle out and show Mr. Public around. The student fBilly BuccaneerJ got a stranglehold on the visitor and calmly proceeded to drag him through the school in nothing fiat, But Mr. Public refused to be hurried and told the guide that he wanted to look over the main office before he proceeded. He looked around while Mrs. McDonald and Mrs. Canavan calmly continued their work, and then announced that everything was O, K. as far as he could see and that he was ready to continue the tour. Suddenly a chorus of No,s rent the air. john Q. got a grip on the bewildered Billy and fairly quaked with fear. Wlia . . . What was th-that? The guide hastened to assure him that it was merely the Student Council who couldn't agree on some point of school government. In spite of Billyls reassurance, Mr. Public decided he would be more interested in something definitely far removed from that point, so the pair then shambled off to the Student Court were judge Sechini and his associates took time out from their disciplining to confer with the Locker Staff.

They toured the Italian, German, and French Clubs, where the sponsors, Miss Raffo, Mrs. Schaller, and Miss Maini, immediately pounced on the bewildered visitor and commenced to tell of the activities of their clubs. Then on to room 123 where Miss Maki was busily teaching the magic of the mimeograph. Then across to the library where industrious Buccaneers poured over reference books in an effort to absorb more knowledge. just as the two tired tourists were becoming convinced that perhaps no one loved them, out popped Al Race and invited the duo into the boys' assembly room where they beheld the amiable activities of the group. PACE TWIENTY-NINE Along about that time, Billy sneaked a peek at the clock on the wall and noted that the old ticker registered just about ten minutes before closing time. So he lassoed Mr. john Q. Public and promptly proceeded to drag the astonished visitor unceremoniously from room to room. Down the deserted corridors, Billy literally carried the tourist. No time to stop and look, so the Buc guide babbled off the routine explanation about other clubs in the school: Business Association, Stamp Club, Tri 'Y,' Girls' Traffic, O. I. S.

Any month's football time around Balboa, but November seemed to hold more than its share of the ac- tivities.

Once upon a time, as the story goes, Balboa was looked upon as the baby of the prep league, but that story now has been slightly changed, for the Buccaneers are gaining the reputation of the team to be feared. With its physical education department headed by Eugene Hill, baseball mentor, the school has one of the best coaching staffs in the city. Walter Lester and Carl Mitchel's football squad, rated as just another team, came through with flying colors to win second spot in the Triple A League, bowing only to Lowell. Captain Red Jensen, spark plug of the team, is the best fullback since the days of the late Roy Yuretich. Freshman-Sophomore football, under the same coaches, experienced an interesting but not so successful season, but will furnish several good players for next season's Louis Haas, latest addition to the staff, succeeded in molding a 120-pound basketball team into a winner which gained second place in city competition.

Spring competition for the crew boys should result in several victories, judging from the successful practice season they have just concluded under the tutorship of Granville Thomas, which was topped off in an interesting Columbus Day race. Spirit on the Balboa campus ran at fever heat during the entire football season spurred on by the thoughts of a championship. Card stunts which were featured at the Poly game were successfully conducted due to the efforts of Henry Vassmer, head yell leader, and his assistants, Clarence Carlos and Russell Jacobson. The band, too, should be complimented on their support given not only during this 'EE1't'TW1e past. Steve Leonoudakis, Steenberg, Nicki Leonoudalcis, Cliampig E itik J U ' ne, lau as. The 39 Vmffizy.. Deprived of the championship for the fourth time in twice as many years, the Buccaneer football team of fall '59 succeeded in landing in second place in triple A league competition. Although rated as the dark horse, the Pirates almost upset the apple cart by losing only one tilt to the league champions, Lowell, by the very narrow margin of one point. In reviewing the activities of the eleven for the past five months, one recalls the first clash with St. Mary's High of Berkeley, in which a green, untried eleven lost to the tune of 6-O, but gained good ex- perience in the contest. Coaches Lester and Mitchel tried out different combinations in the line and backneld during that conflict. Captain Red, jen- sen's tactics employed against the Saints proved that he was headed toward All-City. Entering the Galileo game at about even odds, the Buccaneers and Lions matched each other fumble for fumble, neither team threatening the other until late in the game when Jensen's 83-yard run to the Galileo 11-yard line thrilled the spectators. After 48 minutes of nip-and-tuck playing, the game ended in a scoreless tie.

A touchdown play came in the third quarter, when Tony Piazza, substituting for Paul Evensen, crashed through to recover a punt of the Wildcats on the 28-yard line, from which point Jensen and Francis went through to score the needed six points. The additional two points were the result of a coffin- corner punt by Red Jensen, after which Ernie Cohn dumped Gerkensmeyer of the Cats in the end zone for a safety. Next to taste defeat at the hands of the home PAGE THIRTY-FIVE squad was Mission, in a contest which brought to Balboa the championship of the Mission District by the score of 7-0. About that time, Buccaneer rooters began to start a whispering campaign that perhaps a champion- ship was in the offing for the Buccaneers, and at the start of the game against Poly, the whispers had grown to loud cheers which helped the Pirates bring home another trophy. Commerce Bulldogs, all pepped up with the thought of defeating a possible champion, went down along with the rest of the vanquished to the 6.1 Jensen goes for 15 yards against Lowell as jim Hughes blocks out Howard Council, Lowell's All- fity end.

Although three quarters of the game was scoreless, the Pirates gained speed in the last quarter, and sent over two touchdowns, which tied up the game for the Buccaneers. As Lowell and Balboa went into their game, sports writers were divided in their opinion as to who would come out on top. If Lowell won, it meant its first city title in eleven years. If Balboa won, it meant its first city title in the history of the school. At the sound of the starting gun, both lines pounded each other to bits, trying to make holes for their backfield men to go through, but all their poundings were to no avail. With about three sec- onds to play before the end of the first half, Joslyn kicked one of the finest field goals ever seen in prep history. In the final minutes of the game, the Buc- caneers drove deep into Card territory, but Cap- tain jensen's injury forced his retirement from the game. Lowell, not wanting to take the chance of having a punt blocked, sent Garcia into the Card's end zone to fall on the ball, thereby giving the Buc- caneers two points for a safety. The game ended 3-2 in favor of Lowell.

Playing their last game, the Buccaneers fought in mud, finishing in fine style by downing the George Washington Eagles 14-0. Six varsity seniors played their last game for Balboa, and in doing so, enabled their team to claim second place in the city league. The game proved that Balboa was far superior to Washington, both on offense and defense. PAGE THIRTY-SEVEN Ending their season in a scoreless tie, the battling Buccaneers of Balboa, deadlocked with a strong San jose eleven. Minus the services of Captain Red Jensen and Pat Castellano, the Buccaneer gridders failed to cross the opponent's goal. Had the Buccaneers been at full strength there is little doubt that they would have defeated the Indians. Mr. Chase, with a group of loyal Balboans, turned out to root for the Buccaneers at the San jose Bowl and to match the Indian rooters yell for yell during the entire tilt.

After taking hard knocks and bruises for the last five months, most local prep gridders agree it was worth it after seeing the names of the future grid greats on the most honored rolls a high school player can rate, the All-City selection. These are the boys who may be considered for scholarships all over the country. Although there are five sets of All-City choices, the official one is the concensus of all the selections, the grand total. Starting in the backfield, by unanimous choice, was Red Jensen, captain of the Balboa varsity, who was rated as the best player in the league by all five selectors, and was made captain and full- back of the All-City. Following Jensen, is Jimmy Honnert of Lowell, who led the Cardinals to their championship, and received first choice on all five selections for left half. In the right half spot, also by unanimous choice, is Art Ekdall, captain of Polytechnic. Calling signals was Al Garcia of Lowell who received first place on all but one of the selections. Second string backs included: Mattson, Poly, Neal, Sacred Heart, Cunningham, Mission, Ger- kensmeyer, St. Ignatius, and Cerf, Lowell.

Although they spend hours of their own time after school in passing, kicking and learning the fundamentals of football, these deserving boys receive little recognition in return for their work. Due to their untiring grind, the squad equalled the varsity's showing in the baby league with the result that some line mater- ial has been uncovered to star on next year's varsity. Robert Ebert, fullback, Edward Chassaing, guard, Pierce Cosbie, end g Boris Shirikoff, captain and Allan Murphy, tackles, were the outstanding players, leading their team to success. Balboa's lirst game with Half Moon Bay was lost by a score of 6 to 0, followed by a tie against Mission, with neither team succeeding in penetrating the other's defense. Other games with varsity reserves were: Burlingame 14, Balboa O, Balboa 14, Lowell Og and Galileo 18, Balboa 7.

The 110-pound casabans were not to be outdone in the spirit of fight, but handicapped by weight, height and experience, managed to end up in the league in a midway position. Coach Haas tried in vain to mould a winning squad, but was successful in producing a strong, scrappy team for competition. CREW Although not competing in league competition this term, both varsity and 130-pound crew have worked hard to perfect their teams under the spon- sorship of Coach Thomas.

Sounds of marching feet during the fall '39 term ushered in another successful semester for the Reserve Officers' Training Corps. Under the leader- ship of Cadet Major George Howard, 261 men brought a degree of efficiency which surpassed all previous terms, due largely to the ability of Major Howard and his assistant cadet officers. Each com- pany worked hard to bring up its efficiency rating, because to the group showing the greatest advance- ment goes a cup. Company A, under Captain Konkel, Lieutenants Elvander and Ellisong Company B commanded by Captain Geche, Lieutenants Doolin and Alescig and Company C with Lieutenants Brennan, Moos- lin, and Sylvestri, all competed against each other for the award of the term, the Marshall trophy, which was finally captured by Company B. The success of Company B was due to its superiority in discipline and close order drill, and much credit is due the company officers for its fine showing.

A very cool redhead is this Marilyn Wikle, heart- breaker supreme. At least she's the original iceberg where diminutive Jim McGill is Concerned. Seems Marilyn is concentrating on other things, for Jimmy seems to be just The Little Man Who Isn't There. Better stock up on your wheaties, jimmy boy, and maybe Marilyn will see you then in a different light, for she only goes for All-American boys. The fellows and girls who are going places in this world don't wait or wish for things to happen-they start now to bring them about. Take money matters, for example. The young men and women who are going places don't just wish for success--they form habits of success now, by saving systematically. There's no easier way to form habits of success than to join The Anglo Bank Savings Cluh in your school and sane something each week.

Outstanding among the terms activities was the pre-game pep rally to inspire spirit for the Mission-Balboa game at which event Coach Malley of U.S.F. was the principal speaker, Threat- ened with the omission of the traditional Senior-Alumni Dance, the Alumni stuck to their guns with the result that the school dance was held in the gym on December 8. Each term the Alumni presents to it deserving member of the graduating class the Hazel M. Fisher Scholarship of S50 to be used for further education.
