CALIFORNIA STATE POLYTECHNIC COLLEGE IFORNIA STATE POLY iHNIC COLLEGE • CALIFORNIA STATE POLYTECHNIC COLLEGE • CALIFORNIA STATE POLYTECHNIC COLLEGE • CALIFORNIA OUR UK Ml A Today” wraps up the parcel of ingredients Yesterday has gath- ered for Tomorrow. With due acknowledgment to tho past and present, this year’s El Rodeo, in contrast to tradition, is dedicated to Cal Poly's students- yet-to-come. Grown during its half century into one of the state's foremost educational institutions—largest undergraduate agricultural college and third largest engineering college on the West Coast— Cal Poly is in the midst of growing pains . But they are healthy growing pains—expansion to care for the thousands of young men (and soon, perhaps, young women) who will throng to a campus that belidves strongly in a college education which can be put to immediately successful use. We hope you enjoy a review of Cal Poly's growing pains as por- trayed in the following pages, and we ask you to join us in welcom- ing, on behalf of the past and the present, the legions of youth that will follow us down the halls of tomorrow.

GttOWMMi PAM NS 99 As you examine this 1955 edition of El Rodeo, Cal Poly’s “book of the year, you will see that this college is indeed overtaken by growing pains—new buildings—more enrollment—even the prospect of co-eds, perhaps, in the not too distant future. For those of us who remain at Cal Poly, these “growing pains are a real challenge—dramatizing the constantly in- creasing need for the particular kind of service this college is prepared to render the present and future citizens of this state. For those of you who will be graduating, these “growing pains’’ are a challenge to carry on the proud tradition that Cal Poly men make good on the job and in their communities—quickly and well. This has been a good year—a foretaste of many, many good years to come as we continue to do the work for which Cal Poly was created. I congratulate you on what wc have accomplished. To every one of you—fhoso who are de- parting—those who remain—those yet to come—I extend best wishes.

Few if ony other senior colleges in the nation can say their yearbook was produced by first-year men— but this issue of EL RODEO was a product of first- year men in line with Cal Poly’s upside-down train- ing philosophies. It was rugged—plenty rugged— splashing bravely out into the publications pond so early in the morning. But we learned a lot—learned quickly—and we hope that you, the readers, are ploasod with our efforts. At the start of the year it was planned to elect an editor from members of the staff, choosing the man who had contributed the most. As deadline neared, it was felt that just about every man on the crew had earned the honor. Few of those who scan EL RODEO will comprehend the scope of the job—the club editors, alone, handled photos and names of some 2,000 men. And every staff member had poked his nose into every cranny on Cal Poly’s 3,000-acre home campus. All in all, however, it was long-suffering, dependable Bill Angel who night-in and night-out labored to meet deadline. So with an “editorship for each and a special gold-crowned ‘‘editorship’’ for Bill, your first-year crew sends EL RODEO '55 to the printer with a bow to the past and a bent finger for the future. fir � row (left to right): Don Nielson, Adv.

The Ag Enginoors began th© yoar with their an- nual Fall social get-together attracting an atten- dance of some 200 Ag Engineering students. The club, it was pointed out, offers wide opportunity for extra-curricular activities both social and edu- cational. For Homecoming, the group sponsored a float and staged its alumni dinner. Other activities included an extensive field trip to Southern Cali- fornia, a studont-faculty banquet, a tractor rodeo preliminary to finals at Poly Royal, a Poly Royal departmental club display and banquet and a spring barbecue — not to mention sponsoring of the famous Cal Poly Tractor Square Dance team which appeared at the state Farm Bureau con- vention in Long Beach.

Special guests often spoke at the two weekly meetings. During the year the members partici- pated in three student conferences. In April, Gideon New Testaments were distributed by the group of Freshmen at Poly. “For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

The Collegiate Chapter of the Future Farmers of America serves as a consolidating organization for the prospective agricultural teachers who are drawn from the agricultural majors at the college. A “learn-by-doing” opportunity is provided within the framework of Cal Poly's chapter for those considering the teaching of vocational agriculture. Stu- dents learn more about the over-all agricultural education program, and gain experience which will prove beneficial in setting up, organizing, and advising an FFA chapter. Cal Poly’s student members assist with the conducting of many state-wide FFA activities which are held on the campus each year. 47 •‘Ignorant ,” ”Wo� t , “lndol nt ,” Isolation . . . wailing fo perform on the Collegiate FFA' much-in-demand degree tcom.

The Cal Poly Crops Club, composed of field, truck, fruit, and citrus crop majors, started the year with an excellent new-student orientation. The Club's Homecoming float won top Agricultural honors over very stiff competition. Estrada Gardens was the scene of a Fall barbecue, and the Spring barbecue was sacrificed to establish the First Anual Crops Banquet. Other events included a Christmas party, active participation in Poly Royal, crop judging contests, and a very successful intramural sports program. chops cent Switching a lifetover from on toothpick to th othor may not havo any bearing on crop , but it was great fun.

Gamma Pi Delta, 20-year-old honorary agricul- tural fraternity, was organized on the Cal Poly Campus to recognize scholarship, character, and leadership on the part of agricultural students. It has carried on an active program with the exception of the war years. In 1951, Beta Chap- ter was installed at the Voorhis campus. Among the activities of the club are: publishing of the student directory, conducting a semi-annual community project, sponsoring of the Homecom- ing dance; sorting and mailing of the Poly Royal Brochure.

The oldest national engineering society on campus, its membership has nearly doubled this year, with a total of 85 students as members. The organ- ization sponsors speakers from the many elec- tronics industries on the West Coast. A home- coming luncheon for students and returning alumni, an annual banquet, a school dance, and several barbecues during the year were also club-sponsored. Active membership in the I.R.E. encourages professional attitudes and social contacts, and entitles students to keep up to date with the “I.R.E.

The California Student Tcachor’s Association is a voluntary state-wide asso- ciation of students in ac- credited teacher education. It was organized in 1937 by the California Teacher’s As- sociation for the purpose of acquainting prospective teachers with their responsi- bilities to the profession. Cal Poly’s chapter was or- ganized in the fall of 1950. The group meets monthly on the campus, is actively affil- iated with the state organ- ization, and participates in two or three state meetings a year. Two of the local members hold state offices: Eugene Angyal, Co-Chair- man State Ethics Committee, and Jim Barlow, State Dele- gate-at-large. 53 leam-by-doing Cal Poly is wid ly known for if training of vocational agriculluro teachers os well as teachers in P.E the sciences, and other fields.

INTERNA 770.VIL REE A THINS The International Relations Club was organized in 1946 to promote a better understanding among all nationalities. It provides an excellent means for American and foreign students to discuss mutual affairs. An outstanding social event on campus was their world cruise dance at which shisk-ke-bab and other exotic foods were served to inject an international flavor. An IRC panel represented Pakistan at the model UN held in San Francisco, where colleges throughout the west assembled to present problems of countries the world over. Sponsorship of Brotherhood Week is a typical activity of this hard-working worthwhile club. OFFICERS: (right to left) M Mohammed, Pr � .; J. Briggt, Sec.; R. Dili� , Adviser; J. Choban, V.-Prct.

At least that was the record established by Poly’s hard-eyed dairy judgers this year. And while Poly was proud of them, proudest of all were Los Lecheros, papa organization of the judging team. Comprised of men interested in dairying and dairy manufac- turing, the Dairy Club highlights its annual activities with its Dairy Club Banquet, attended not only by majors and alumni but some of the outstanding figures from the field. Evidence of the enthusiasm that sparks the club is the large turnout of mem- bers at club meetings and other activities. Anoher outstanding annual event for Los Lecheros is the judging and showing activities at Poly Royal. Most recent addition to their part of the famous Country Fair on a College Campus was a milk maid's contest to inject even more fun into Poly's premier frolic. Rumor has it the dairymen are planning next year to sup- ply their milk maids with neon pails. Seriously, Los Lecheros is one of the most widely-known student clubs in the state and has with its expert judges spread Cal Poly's fame throughout the West. toll Quarter Officers (left to right): R.

The club is helping meet the demand of the printing industry by encourag- ing its men to contribute to this great cause. Cal Poly's widely- known Printing Engineering Department has been extremely ac- tive this year, its greatest single contribution being support of Poly Royal. The printers also sponsored National Printing Week, gaining statewide recognition. Social events included two de- partmental barbecues.

AMERICAN OF ARCHITECTS STUDENT CHARTER One of the real beauty spots of the entire campus is the patio designed and built by the architects, themselves. And it’s a handy outdoor study and recreation space, just outside their buildings. By the time they were through, the Freshmen had put into form the plans of the upperclassmen, and the Sophs, as usual, had done a wonderful job of foremanship. Results of this kind of training? Cal Poly architects busy and successful from Coast to Coast. The Student Chapter of the American lintitute of Architects strives to enlarge the student archi- tects understanding of the present and future responsibilities and potential scope of architec- tural practice. Club activities included field trips to outstanding examplos of architecture through- out the state, hearing prominent architectural and engineering speakers, group discussions, dances, banquets, intramural sports, and this year, for the first time, the production of hanefa made Christmas cards.

MONTEREY OOHM1TOHY Monterey Dorm, adjacent to the Cal Poly practice football and baseball field, boasted an impressive record in intramural football and basketball. To most Cal Poly students, Monterey may be just another dorm,” but to its members it is an organ- ized club. United enthusiasm oxisted throughout the entire school year, resulting in numerous organized gatherings ranging from a spring banquet to beach parties on the Avila beach. 80 SHASTA DORMITORY Shasta, which is logically situated on the moun- tain crest, did an outstanding job in every ac- tivity it undertook this year. The members won the annual placque for the outstanding dorm Christmas decorations. After a brilliant football season, Shasta lost a dose game in the championship finals. Later they had a very successful season on the basket- ball courts and defeated such teams as the local high school and the junior college. The only failure of the year was the coke ma- chine, which quenched many thirsts, but lost money. Shasfo's intramural footballers mode like Notro Dame until the finolt.

It also has made an excellent showing for itself by fielding a top-notch football team in the intramurals, entering the basketball competition and winning two intra- mural swimming trophies. Active student government interest has been evidenced by the club’s contribution of several of its members to some of the leading student body committees and boards.

THE SEA SOX In some respects, it was a disappointing season—this season of 1954. National collegiate high scoring undefeated cham- pions last year—six won, four lost this year. There were reasons: (1) every opponent was primed for the cohorts of the Silver Fox; (2) the Mustangs, doors closed by some of their previously defeated opponents, were forced to range far and high to fill their schedule; (3) some mortal injuries transpired, notably the carly-season broken shank of Guard Vic Buccola; (4) well, why go on? There were moments of real greatness . . . high fortune . . . the heady wine of victory. Plenty of such moments for anybody's football diet. On the whole, the Mustangs and their backers fared very well. The opposite page displays a running resume of the season. San Diego's giant Marines won the opener; McMurry of Texas caught the Green Gold at down-down; Fresno State was the real heartbreaker with a winning field goal in the final ten seconds of play; and Colorado Western, clever and smart, latcralcd their way to a skinny but final victory in a game that saw the lead change a half dozen times and loft Thanksgivingcrs with indigestion. Of historic mention is the demise of the venerable CCAA. This year was its last official round of action. Santa Bar- bara, Los Angelos Stato, Peppcrdine resigned for easier levels. Efforts to reassemble a conference failed. It is prob- able, therefore, that Cal Poly and its Mustangs will be en- gaged in independent sports for the indiscernable future. Most of the former teams will meet each other in one or more sports but there will be no league standings to count. Prospects for next year? In spite of the graduation of a round dozen seniors. Coach Hughes predicts another strong aggregation. Several of the freshmen have shown up well; if newcomers by enrollment and transfer prove out as he hopes, once again the Mustang will be round and firm and fully packed. 91 Homtcomlng found fh Mustangs solid!

Notable among them was Danny Delgado, who comes from the Imperial Valley and looks as though he may be another Villanuevo before he is through. Versatile Don Tucker did the quarterbacking for the Colts this year and, despite the season's record, helped the team turn in a good solid performance. Starting out with a 12-12 tie with Hancock College at Santa Maria, the yearlings went on to three straight losses. But all of the losses were against teams with sterling records and plenty of manpower. Few of Cal Poly's freshman teams ever prove all-victorious since it is the purpose of the team to develop future varsity players who prove their metal against heavy competition. Lee, one of the hardest-working coaches on campus, gives plenty of time to fundamentals. Fancy-work is left for later years under the Silver Fox and his aides. This season's record: Colts 12; Hancock College 12 Colts 7; College of Sequoias 41 Colts 7; Hartnell College 31 Colts 6; Coalinga JC 19 Among the freshmen expected to join the Varsity next year are: Bob Bolinger, Bill Retzer, Pat Lawrence, John Byrne, Pete Mazzuchi, Ray Ferrari, Bill Lyons, Johnny Yoxsimer, Tom Kennedy, Bill Moore, Bill Rohrcr, Maynard Kepler, Bob Cheatley, Darrell Young and Bob Campbell. 1955 VARSITY SCHEDULE Davies and Reid went vorsity Sept. 17. . . .Colorado Stale at Gunnison Sept. 24.....Humboldt State at Areata Oct. 1.....San Diego State, San Diego Oct. 8.............

Soccer's the original bean boll gome. Cutty was Col Poly's energetic goalie. THE WAIFS There was no money in the ath- letic treasury for them. So they begged some cast-off football shoes, rigged up the rest of their outfits, and minus shin guards went out to do battle. That was the Cal Poly soccer team, an “international corps in every sense of the word. And when they were through, they had won three, lost three and tied one for an excellent record —especially with the company they kept. Hans Mager, Architectural En- ginooring instructor, took over as coach this year. Traveling was done in the team members' own cars. Practice and games at home were staged on the greenfield of the track set-up. And it was interesting to see that as the season progressed, more and more spectators came to watch a game that is plenty rough and more rugged than most. The roster read like a United Nations. You can read it at the left. But of the group there were extremely few who called the U.S. their homeland. Plans for next year? Wo hopo to obtain some backing from the athletic funds, says Coach Mager. “Then we can expand our schedule still farther. SEASON'S RECORD Cal Poly 2 . UCLA 14 Cal Poly 2 . .

JUNIORS - CLASS OF 50 Here's a small section of the class that will graduate this coming year — the Class of '56 —and already they’ve started making their mark under the advisership of Aero's Alden L. Turner. Cal Poly uses a unique class advisory plan: A selected faculty member starts with a class during its Freshman year and follows it through to graduation. Class officers change each year. This year’s Juniors comprised the entering group that marked the Poly Engineering Division's great upsurge to the point where it now ranks as third largest in the West.

Freshman President Bill Bryson CHAMPS Cal Poly won its first CCAA basketball championship with the aid of new basketeers Ernie Hall, Bill Freeman, and Atwood Grandborry. Key veterans were Tony Nunes, Gene Knott, both voted co-captains this year, Jim Gilbert, and Larry Madsen. With the help of Santa Barbara’s star forward Lee Han- son being declared ineligible, causing the Gauchos to forfeit all the games they won. Cal Poly went on to romp over last year’s champion San Diego State and luckless Los Angeles State in the CCAA finale. Although the Mustangs started slow, they gained mo- Coach Ed Jorgensen He finally won his pennant Jim Cox Season's Most-Improved mentum and began rolling along with few defeats. Losses to Santa Barbara hurt the Polymen earlier, but when the Gauchos were forced to forfeit, the sun was bright in Polyland. The Mustangs had a season record of 16 wins and 10 losses while their CCAA record was 7 and 1. The only defeat came at the hands of Fresno State, 54-52, in a rugged contest staged at Fresno. Poly played host to the Far Western Conference champ, San Francisco State, after wrapping up the CCAA title, and fought a grueling battle only to taste defeat 84-80 in the NAIA playoffs. Four new individual school records were broken by Hall, who will be back on the Poly hardwoods next year.

Hall also broke Doug Strath- earn’s record of Most Field Goals in One Season, bo- sides breaking former Poly-great Hank Moroski's record of Most Free Throws in One Game.” As for the current season's single game records, Hall hit for 38 points in the return engagement with Los Angeles State. Atwood Grandberry had the most free-throws- attempted season record with 18 from the charity line. Two new team records wor© also established this yoar, one being ‘‘Most Points Scored in One Game, which was 104 points against Westmont College of Santa Bar- bara. The previous record was 99 points scored against Chapman College last year. In this very same game a record for the Most Field Goals Scored in One Game was also rewritten. Coach Ed Jorgensen was especially happy to come out victorious with the CCAA basketball title since this will be the final year for the CCAA. Next year the Mustangs will engage in independent play.

Big glove (or Godinez Cal Poly’s boxing team had one of its most successful seasons since winning the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate Boxing title in 1953. Under Ihe coaching of Tom Lee, the Mustang ringmen, noteworthy for their excellent conditioning, knocked over Stanford, Chico State, Nevada, San Francisco State and the University of California. They lost two close matches to perennial kingpin San Jose State and one to the strong University of Santa Clara. Lee found a top-notch collegiate boxer in Freshman Eduardo Labas- tida in the 119-pound class. Labastida won all six of his bouts and two more by forfeit. Lee claims Labastida will be right up among the Mustang “greats by the time he graduates. Bill Fortye, another Freshman, started late but managed to get a couple of wins against three defeats and shows lots of promise. And in the 132-pound class, Lambert Lelevier had a tough break when he broke his noso at tho beginning of the season—managing to come up with a win, loss and draw rec- ord. Pete Godinez had a suc- cessful year in the 139-pound class by winning his last three bouts against one loss and a draw for the season. George Cox also showed well with a 3-and-3 record, his best bout being a decision over Cal’s Don (Continued on poge 137) There woi plenty of oztion BUCCOLA LABASTIDA lobotlida floored Son Jot� '� Horrit; relero slopped In. (Continued from page 136) Morton. But it was Frank Loduca in the 147-pound class who led the squad in rapid development and along with Labostida is considered a top prospect for Coastwidc honors. Undefeated, he had a record of five wins and three draws. Footballer Vic Buccola turned boxer this year and displayed a lot of courage to win three, lose two and draw two in the 178-pound class. An outstanding piece of work was his ruggod decision of SF State's Nonello. Rainald Johnston, also fighting in the 178-pound class, had a record of two wins against three losses. Heavyweight John Rehder, last year's intra-mural heavyweight king, displayed plenty of power by gaining three victories against only one loss. His best bout was with Cal’s footballer, Steve Dimeff, Rehder winning a decision. As this section of El Rodeo went to press, the team was readying itself for another crack at the PCI's in Sacramonto. Labastida, Loduca, Godinez, Buccola and Cox were scheduled to represent the Green and Gold. Codlo i and J. Mcheen mix il up inlramurally. Wrestling is on the rise at Cal Poly, home of the annual Pacific Coast Intercollegiate championships. And while the Mustangs took eighth out of thirteen entries, they placed Norman Gomes, 130 pounds, and Jack Dei, 137 pounds, in final thirds. De- feating San Diego State 25-11 during the regular season, Harden's clan drew with San Jose State 20-20, lost to Stanford 18-16, to the powerful Cal Bears 29-3 and UCLA 19-9.

Facing an even more rigorous schedule and a state tourna- ment in 1955-56, Cal Poly's Mustang water polo team won two out of six this year as the splashers built back toward the heights. They opened with an 8-3 loss to UCLA, took Los Angeles State 13-2, fell to Fullerton 8-5, defeated Po- mona 6-5, then finished off with a splashing pair of losses to Occidental 8-7 and 7-4. There was no state tournament this year. Many of the water poloists consider the rugged sport ideal training for their late winter and spring campaigns in com- petitive swimming.

It was a vintage year for the Livestock Judging Team, which won all three of the West Coast Inter- collegiate Livestock Judging Contests—the Pacific International, Portland, Oregon; the Grand National at San Francisco; and the Ogden Livestock Show at Ogden, Utah. Hokit and Kennedy were first and second high individual contestants respectively at the Portland show. Fellows and Thurnher repeated the one-two win at the Ogden event. The team won the swine division at Portland; the swine, horse and sheep divisions at San Francisco's show; and the swine, sheep and market class divisions at Ogden.

Also in the boxing and wrestling tournaments, Heron was well represented with winners—three champions in boxing and two in wrestling. Other functions were the “Ugly Man Contest in which Clark Gipson was entered, and a barbecue held during the spring quarter. (Editor's Note: due to some photo-deadline difficulties. Heron is not with other club units. It has such an outstanding record, however, El Rodeo wanted to be sure and include it in the book.) Front row (left to right): P. Ramirez, H. Lin, G. Leong, G.

On March 31 of that year, just two months after the Cal Poly bill had received the approval of state legislature and California’s Governor Gafte v iK . the coast line opened for regular traffic from San Francisco to Los Angeles via San Luis Obispo. Historical evidence indicates that the Southern Pacific, then at the height of its political power, played a definite part in persuad ing the state’s approval of Cal Poly. Construction of the line over the Cuesta Grade alone had entailed an expense of §1,774,000, a lot of money in those days. Anything that could add to the population along its route or increase interest in the road might contribute to its prosperity. The S. P. considered the proposed Polytechnic such an asset. And the fact that the company had been obliged to bring skilled workers from Norway to work on the tunnels may have given its officials an interest in the found- ing of an institution in which industrial skills would be empha- sized. Midland Pacific The iron horse also put San Luis Obispo in a key position on the SP route between the state’s two) metropolitan areas, and the ' brought the community contact with the the proposed railroad a bright future. Bonds Not Sold But the Midland Pacific, unable to sell its bonds, disappeared like a puff of smoke. Not only was Standard Oil able to offer satis- factory pipelines of their own, but newspapers reported that pressure from the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific instigated the road’s demise. Of course, the S. P. would rather transport goods from the San Joa- quin valley to the coast via Los Angeles or San Francisco than to see them go across the state, transported by a competitor. With the railroad playing an important role in the founding of the California Polytechnic, it was rather appropriate that the college would soon rise within a few hun- dred yards of the track. But maybe this was just a little too close to benefit the best inter- ests of Poly eardrums. i'icVi Y e P' Co' jtV� o .Wv� or to' poW co '‘ ote 1W o� W- « • '°' o c jc.V� Ne Vie � o9 '� °9 � • v o c oi uW one a oce But th'-- k’, ' Center of San Luis antiquity is the ancient Mission at the edge of the business district.

Then, as for the past twenty- three years of herd history, “Poly Royal takes over as the nationally-famous Country Fair on a College Campus . Visitors gather from all over the West to see Poly's 3,000 acres teem with activity as every department in each of the three divisions goes on public display. Benificently reigning over it all is The Queen —up to now, borrowed from one of the state’s co-educational campuses. With advent of co-eds assured, this year may have seen the last non- Poly queen in Mustang history. How did the big affair turn out this year? Better than ever, in spite of copious rain. Visitors num- bered 12,000-15,000. Displays and exhibits hit a new level of interest. And the architects capped it all with a terrific explosion that may well have typified better than anything else the fizz and boom with which Poly explodes at Poly Royal time.

Weak hitting and almost 100 errors in 2-1 games told the story of the base- ball season. Coach Tom Lee’s base bailers ended up third in the confer- ence, winning five and losing seven. A freshman pitcher, Ken Lee (no re- lation to Coach Tom), was the lead- ing moundsman by winning six games and losing three and supporting a 2.60 earned run average. Lefty Paul Pat- rick started late and broke even dur- ing the season with a win and a loss and a 2.56 ERA. Leading hitter was Clive Remund, first sacker, who found his eye and climbed to a .306 per- centage at season’s end. Ken Martin tossed the discus 146 feet one-half inch to win the confer- ence event, but the Mustangs took a FOOTBALL The Greatest! When Coach Roy Hughes came out of last football season with a comment that he would never spend another year like 1964, he was referring to a back field famine. After watching the “spring bowl game,” local observers feel maybe they'll have to agree with another Hughes statement made at the begin- ning of spring drills. He commented, “This could be the greatest backfield in Cal Poly history.” The spring game showed that the Mustangs will be plenty deep in the backfield. Veterans Jerry Duncan, Perry Jeter, Danny Delgado and Mari- jon Ancich will have to hustle to keep ahead of newcomers Glenn Harman and Vernon Kee at fullback, Rudy Brooks, Jim Antoine, Andy Brown- wood and Jack Goodnight at half- backs. and Vem Valdez, Jack Sears, Don Tucker and Tom Reynolds at quarterback. Hughes and his staff are aware of a line weakness, but the “Fox rates his ends as excellent” and the centers as “good.” Clarence Crow and John Josephson join Al Moriarty, Rud Chadwick, and Jim Cox at the end slots while new- comer Jim Africa teams with the much-improved duo of Steve Reid and Duane Wickstrom, centers. 955 Schedule Sept. 17—Colo.
