The Board of Education is a body of five trustees who give their time and
thought for the betterment of our school system.
The taxpayers and parents are represented by this board, since the members
are elected at the general elections from the five wards. This year the president
is DT. B. M. Marshall, and Superintendent Albee is the secretary. The board meets
on the first Monday of each month. They have the sole power of engaging the
teachers and the superintendent of the Eureka Schools.
This year the school board has lost a very excellent and valuable member.
After faithfully serving for ten years, Mr. Ritchie Woods resigned and Mr. AJ.
DeLong was elected as the new member of the board.
. The school board gives support to all worthy projects of our schools. They
have shown special interest in our band, and made it possible for the members
to get their equipment and uniforms and allowed them to go to San Francisco
to play at the bridge opening.
Another worthy project that the school board has recently brought about
is the improvement of J street. This street was in very bad condition and the
new surface is greatly appreciated.
The school board is providing for the improvement of Albee Stadium. A
new turf is being put on the baseball diamond, and a new drainage system is
planned for the football field.

The Parent-Teachers have had a very successful year under the able direc-
tion of their president, Mrs. Harry Caltoft.
The purpose of the P. T. A. is to bring the home and the school closer to-
gether so that parents and teachers may better cooperate in training the children
and in securing the best advantages for them.
Following their purpose, the Parent-Teachers chose for their theme this
year "Peace Through Understanding?
One of the outstanding accomplishments of the year was the presentation
of Krylis Symphony Orchestra, starring Mary McCormic as soloist. This orches-
tra was presented on December 4, and through the success of the evening per-
formance it was possible to give all students an opportunity to hear him in the
afternoon for a very nominal sum.
On the third of January a membership drive was announced, with prizes
being offered to the classes that brought the largest number of new members.
The winners were the SL Class, and the second award went to the 2L Class.
The large event of the spring is a Girls' Carnival which is given in conjunc,
tion with the Girls' League. This event features various sports carried out by the
girls, gym classes, a sale of plants and candy, and a dance afterward.
The following officers have served in the past year: president, Mrs. Harry'
Caltoftg vice-president, Mrs. Catherine Cash, recording-secretary, Mrs. W. D.
Pineg corresponding-secretary, Mrs. L. V. Smith, and treasurer, Mrs. J- C. Bark-
dull.

Class Qlitlanuory '38
The graduating seniors of January 1938 began their class activities by pre-
senting at noon time a humorous, one-act play entitled "A Wedding."
An after-school dance was next undertaken, resulting in the "Holiday Hi-
Jinx." Next in line came the Junior-Senior Prom at the Woman's Club.
Early in January, 1938, the high-light of the entire four years in high
school took place in the form of the "Senior Bubble Ball." Formal attire was
Worn by those attending this gala event, which included three hours of fun and
frolic to the music of Art Holton's Swing Band. The general chairman for the
affair was Marion Goss.
"The Senior Class Goes To Townn was the theme of the Class Nite, which
was under the direction of Oliver Harrison and Miss Powell. The performance
showed the past and present of the senior students and even some of the future
with the aid of the "Re-Creator", the only machine of its kind in existence today.
At the end of the semester, impressive commencement exercises were held
with the following honor students speaking: Mary Borneman, Jean Dalton,
Frances Larsen, Mildred McGowan, Wayne Williams, and Wallace Look.

The Class of June 1938 has been one of the liveliest and best spirited
classes in our school.
This class made an impressive start in their high school career when they
gave the "2L Kick Off" under the leadership of the.r class president. -
As Juniors, the class became very active in school events. They' chose Leigh-
ton Pratt as class president. The first of the term this class gave an 'after-school
dance called "The Harvest Hop." One of the chief affairs in which the High
Juniors participated was th.e "Junior Jamboree," given for all the graduating
seniors at the Eureka Woman's Club House.
Then came the Senior year. This was the greatest of them all. The class
sponsored a series of "Telephone Whist" parties, as money-raising projects. AS
4H's they put on a very clever and talented Senior Class night, and a glorious
Senior Ball terminated their brilliant high school career.
Several individuals of this class have shown outstanding ability. Virginia
Dudek was editor of the Sequoia, and Frandes Nye editor of the Bark. Among
those prominent in Student Body affairs were Bill Hodges who was Student Body
president, Ernest Cunningham, vice-president, and Rosa Mae Fridley, secretary.
Among those prominent in athletics were Len Longholm, Bill Hodges, Ernest
Cunningham, Kasmier Starkovich, and Bud Bird.

The 4L class, which is small but peppy has put over with great success every-
thing it has started. The first affair held by the class was an after-school dance
called the "Spring FrolIcs" with the music by the Varsity Swing Trio.
The next outstanding event staged by' this class was the introduction of
Ed Early's Orchestra. They also put on a sensational program of class talent when
they were 3L's.
As 3H's the class, under the able direction of their president George Hal-
kides, presented the "Autumn Fling" which was a very peppy after-school-
dance. Then as the big event for the Junior Class, the 3H's put on the Junior-
Senior Prom at the Eureka Women's Club house. The theme of Christmas was
carried out in the decorations. Nina Claire Kelley was the general chairman- The

CLASS OF
This unusually large class didn't really begin their class activities until their
second year in Senior During their Sophomore year, the class elected
Charles Berry as their president. Charles was certainly an able person for this
office and had a lot of plans for his class. However, a most unfortunate happen-
ing soon took place, when Charles was stricken with dreaded infantile paralysis
while attending the State Fair at Sacramento. After this sad mishap it took
the class the remainder of the year to get organized again. At this time Helen
Devoy took over the presidency. During her term, the class presented a most
entertaining program at noon-time. The program was put on in the auditorium
before a large crowd of students. The main feature was the dancing of the pop-
ular "Big Applen, which was at its height at this time, by Dorothy Mackins,

CLASS CDI:
In their first year in Senior High, the students of this class wisely selected
Pat Dillon as their president. Under her able leadership and the cooperation of
the class, a moving picture was soon presented entitled "Running Wild."
The humorous film dealt with college life and received much applause. Besides
affording much amusement, the movie was a great financial success and gave
the class a good start toward other class activities.
The class next undertook a most unusual project. The idea was to have
class members meet at the gym and organize teams in ping pong and badminton.
At first, this was just somewhat of a "get-together," but later it was decided
tio award prizes in the contests and the winners were to be challenged
by other classes. The small admission price of five cents was to be charged thjose
students who wished to watchfthe games. The object of charging an admission

price was to help raise money in order to present the Junior-Senior Prom when
the time comes for this class to giyve such an affair. They hope to give one of
the most outstanding proms the school has ever known, thus they are beginning
early to raise the necessary funds.
This class, although the smallest in the school, consists of a group of peppy
and enthusiastic students Besides having several students with very high
scholastic records, this class has also contributed greatly to Eureka High's ath-
letics. On the football team were Charles Gordet, Lewis Tomanovfch, and
George Johanson. On the basketball team were Blaine McGowan and Jim Retz-
loff. Marjorie Waters, one of Eureka's peppiest yell leaders, also hails from this
class. With the help of their advisers, Miss Duame, Mr. Doren, and Mr. Hunter,
the students of the class of January 1940 hope to make their four years in High
School well worth while.

CLASS OF
Soon after its arrival to this building this class, one of the largest in the
school, was most royally initiated. Among the several students who were called
upon the stage to represent the class was Jack Brennan, who had a placard bear-
ing the words "Goo, Goo, I'm a babyi' attached to his back, while he paraded
in his stocking feet up fand down the aisles of the auditorium. Also among the
unfortunate "scrubs" were Carl Hibbard, Emerick Boskovich, and Art Jones,
who were forced to imiytate Arabian worshipers saying, "Allah, Eureka High."
The officers of the class, including Gilbert Matsen, Marion Dalton, Betty
Morrell, and Harold Canepa, had to sing "Eureka High." Gilbert Matsen, who
seemingly didn't Wish to sing, had to push a banana across the stage with his
nose, much to the delight of the spectators. The initiation as a whole, Was very
good and will be longpremembered by the students.

After such an entrance as this, the class felt that they really belonged to
Senior High and soon began their class activities. Under the leadership of Gil-
bert Matsen, the president, the class presented "Sarita's Swing", an after-school
dance dealing with the gay spirit of Christmas. To advertise the affair, an
assembly was called at which Jack Brennan, garbed as Santa Claus, rode down
the center aisle of the auditorium on a bicycle. Upon reaching the front of the
room, Jack gave the details about the dance and passed out several free tickets.
The affair proved to be a great success and was all that was anticipated. All
attending seemed to enjoy, themselves greatly.
Later in the semester, the class decided they should have an "acquaintance
party-" The idea took well, and a party was held in the gym during the noon
hour, at which games such as ping pong were played and the students danced.
The games and dancing were under the able direction of Paul S. Campbell, Y-
M. C. A. executive, and a ldt of fun was had by the members of the class.

The ZL Class, before entering our Senior High building, chose as their
class president Dayton Murray, and he did a fine job in presidiggg over the pro-
mOEion exercises. The class secretary was Alta Fulton and the-tlqgaisurer was Bob
Showers.
The class gave a successful noon dance in order to raise money for the
annual 9 High dance and party. With 'the money received from the noon-dance
the class was able to buy' decorations and the other needed things. The decor-
ation committee turned the gym into a place of enjoyment. Streamers
of all color-s adorned the WalQxi,AVa,t1d rafters. Greens and flowers were also an
additional attraction. The Senior High Swing Band supplied the music

nited States government is represented in miniature in the Student
Body. Nominations are by committee and petition. Revenues are provided
through Student Body tickets, gate receipts, and the Redwood Bark advertis-
ing.
Regular monthly meetings bring all the members of the school together
and a business meeting and program are held. The Student Body and council
minutes, the Treasurer's report, and correspondence are read. Awards, athletic
and musical, are given semi-annually at these meetings. An interesting and
usually educational program concludes the meeting.
The objective of the Student Body meeting is to train the students for
later political life-

The Student Council is the main spring of the Student Body. All the
business transactions of the school are handled by the council. In some cases
large amounts of money are often involved. Permission for school dances and
shows is also 'granted by the council. '
The Student Council is composed of the Student Body president, the
secretary, the treasurer, and a representative from each class, elected by his
class. The organization meets every Monday except on the one preceding the
Student Body meeting.
Much of the council's success has been due to the good Work and efforts
of Miss Smith and Mr. Doren, faculty advisers. In the spring semester Oliver
Harrison replaced Chet Allen and Len Longholm replaced Leighton Pratt.
PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
In May 1937 I succeeded Gerald Daly to the office of President of Eur-
eka Senior High School. My ambition was to carry on the Work as creditably
as he had done.
This has been an exceptionally busy year, and splendid cooperation has
been shown by' all the officers, committeemen, and clubs as well as individualsg
and I am deeply grateful to them for their support in all our undertakings.
My special thanks go to the staff of the Redwood Bark for publicity given
for the games, programs, and other school affairs.
In all that has been attempted, I have tried to keep the faith of those who
conferred upon me this great honor, that of being their president. Bill Hodges

SEQUQIA EDITORIAL STAFF
The Sequoia Staff under the direction of Miss Fitzell publishes the
"Sequoia,', our school annual. For the first two months of the term the staff
h
met eac Monday for the purpose of deciding upon the more important features
of the book such as cover design, color scheme, theme, and dedication. The
theme "photography" inspired the Camera Club, which is theoretically? a sub-
division of the staff, and their snaps have been accepted for this annual. The
editor, with Miss Fitzell's advice, must arrange the book. Her assistants, the
editors of the different divisions, must present the write-ups to Miss McGeorge
who proof reads them, sends it to the print shop which in turn sends it out for
distribution.

The general appearance of the Sequoia depends largely upon the painstak-
ing job of the boys in the printshop who work on this annual, First, they set
up the copy on the linotypeg after the proof-reading, the copies are patiently
corrected. Each page must be spaced so that the margins are even. The press
work is difficult, for it is necessary to keep the pages clean and the printing
straight on the page and get the book ready for binding. The boys started
their work in February and continued until June.
The Sequoia is a real student project as all of the wozrk of the book is done
in 'the school except the binding and engraving of the cuts. We are fortunate
to be one the few schools to have our own printshop. Without the help of the
boys in the shop we could not produce the annual.

Tchaikowswsky, and "The Two Magiciansf,
A new attraction for the Girls' Trio is the addition of white flannel skirts
and sweaters and white shoes to form a complete white outfit. A change in the
Boys' Trio was the replacement of George Burg for Arthur Daigan.
X The combined Glee Clubs, numbering 325, from Junior and Senior High
schools sang Christmas carols at the Community Christmas Tree Program held

With more and more students showing an interest in these fine music
organizations, greater progress is made. The present quarters are taxed beyond
the limit, as is the time available for instruction. The department is looking
forward to successful approval and completion of a new building which will
contain suitable space for the expansion of instrumental music in our schools.
The band has made appearances in uniform at all games in spite of frequent
showers. It has increased in size to 52, and added two baton twirlers in special
uniforms. At most basketball games the pep band played and also appeared
at rallies and before several organizations in the vicinity. The band played for
the Conservation program in March and also was scheduled to play for the
Music Festival in May" in Eureka. A formal concert was given on April 22
assisted by students from the Glee Clubs.
The orchestra has had no increase in size, but the addition of a bassoon
and an oboe plus another cello have resulted in better balance. This Year appear-
ances were made during first two months in both schools and also for the
Teachers' Institute held in Eureka. Another worthy project was the successful
sale of 'tickets for the Kryl Symphony Concert in December. The orchestra
presented a formal concert on April 8 in the Junior High School Auditorium,

This year the big project of Girls' League was the convention which was
held early in the spring. This is the fourth time the Eureka Senior High
Girls' League had been the hostess to the North Coast County Leagues. At the
original convention held on February 20, 1926, the following schools accepted
the invitation of Eureka: Arcata, Ferndale, Fortuna, Fort Bragg, and Crescent
City. The next year representatives of these schools again met in Eureka for the
purpose of forming a federation. Later South Fork and Ukiah came in and this
year the invitation was extended to Hoopag also the ninth grade of Junior High
was included. Eureka again served as hostess in 1930.
The purpose of these conventions is to give the girls opportunity to ex-
tend their friendships, and to receive an inspiration for continuing and improv-
ing the Work of their respective leagues. This year the convention was under the
direction of Rose Ellen Woodcock, vice-president of Girls' League.
The regular Work of the Eureka League has consisted of the functioning
of 'the standing committees. The Hospital Committee, under Olga St-emach, has
returned to the former custom of giving monthly programs on Sunday" morn-
ings at the School for the Tuberculous rather than broadcasting over the radio.

Doys or au ages are members or this worthwhile organization: the Cubs for

older boys. From the last group we have a large percentage in our own school.
This year was an outstanding camping year, tor every week-end of this
year, one group or another has made an excursion into the wonder-land of sea,
lndustry, and mountains ot this country. 'lhere are 586 Scouts in the Redwood
Area Lgouncil WI11Cl'1 is an rncrease oi 200 Scouts over the previous period.
To demonstrate the ability of the Scouts, here is a human interest story:
One night in early March, two boys had gone to their Troop Master's house to

SENIOR l-II-Y
The purpose of the Hi-Y is to "Create, maintain and extend throughout
the community high standards ot Christian Character." With this purpose in
miner, the local chapter of the I-11-Y tries to make better citizens and students
of its members and to be of service to the school by having projects from time
to time. Their largest current project was the publishing or pamphlets contain-
ing information of the school, and the distributing ot these among the new
students each term. The Big Apple Barn Dance whicn was given during the fall
was another such project. A more serious project presented by the club
was a Thanksgiving Day Service at which the members presented the pro-
gram and contributed food for charity. This was attended by the younger
members of the Y.M.C.A and their parents.
To help instruct the members on the foreign conditions, the club arranged
a series of International programs. The first speaker was Mr. Sanders who
spoke on Japan. Later Miss Tosca Schulze spoke on Germany-
The Hi-Y also participated in other educational projectsg namely, the older
Boys Conference at Humboldt State and the Hi-Y Training camps at Redway.
They also hold annual Christmas parties at the Big 4 Inn. Meetings are held
on Wednesday noons ijn the Hi-Y room. Mr. Paul Campbell, the local secretary,
is the adviser.

BASEBALL 1937
In the 1937 baseball season, Eureka's three-year record was broken. For-
tuna broke the chain of 20 victories by defeating Eureka 9 to O for the C. I. F.
championship. Eureka divided the schedule evenly with 3 games won and three
lost. '
The especially' rainy season of 1937 caused great inconvenience to the base-
ball fans. Several games were postponed and practice was frequently interupted
by the persistent spring showers. To prevent this in the future the baseball
season was shifted to the fall. As football is Eureka's major sport, Eureka with-
drew from C. I. F. baseball to prevent conflict between the two sports. The 1938
season will be played at the usual time.
7 The undefeated team of 1936 returned several regulars and many exper-
ienced players to the field. A battery of Allen and Jacobson, backed by Durdan
at first, Cunningham and Speier alternately on second, and McCann on third
held the score of opposing 'teams low. Bird cooled off the hot ones at short-stop,
while Becker, Starkovich, and Beck kept the outer gardens clear.

ed in the seventh inning after a very strenuous game and allowed six hits which

TENNIS IQ37
After a spring of hard practice, the tennis tournament was held in May
on the Humboldt State College courts. The dexterity and competence displayed
by the Eureka contestants, demonstrated the excellent coaching of Mrs. Leo
Sullivan, our former girls' gymnasium instructor.
Arcata and Eureka tied in the finals, Eureka taking the Boys' Singles and
Girls' Doubles championships, while Arcata won the Girls' Singles and Boy's'
Doubles championships. Willard Woodcock defeated Alvin Biondini of Fern-
dale in Boys' Singles. Alta Mae Lester and Mildred McGowan defeated Arcata.
The game between Warrene Elmore of Arcata and Dorothy Belle Watkins
was the most exciting of the season. Our mixed doubles team was defeated at
Fortuna. Although the other two teams were defeated at Arcata, they offered
stiff competition to their rivals and they should be complimented on their spirit-
ed playing and splendid sportsmanship.
Art Jones is the only player on last year's team that will be with us this
year. He made an enviable record both here and in San Francisco where he play-
ed in a tournament. H

The "C" division, or midgets, is composed of ooys smaller than the lightweightsc-
They competed only in the 100, 120 low hurdles, high jump and relay. These
boys who will probably be lightweights next year will be experienced track men
and should add much to the strength of our lightweights.

Ten games, six of which Were inter-sectional, with but one loss, is a rec-
ord of which Coach Willard can justly be proud. Red Bluff, Medford, Grants
Pass, St. Mary's, and San Jose, all fell before the axe of the "Loggers',. Fort
Bragg was the only school to retire victorious.
Eureka 0 Fort Bragg 13
The first score came early in the first quarter after a series of 15 -yard
penalties had placed the ball on the one-yard line. In the final period, Fort
Bragg intercepted Eureka's pass on the five-yard line and, behind perfect inter-
ference, Went over for another touchdown.
Eureka 13 Red Bluff 0
The first score was chalked up soon after the starting gun after a series
of brilliant runs placed the ball on the 20-yard line, from where Durdan carried
it over. ln the early part of the last quarter, Longholm broke away and crossed
the goal line standing up. The extra point was added byl an off tackle plunge.

Eufeka 20 Medford 12
Long passes and long runs in a wide open game gave the red and green
their second well-earned victory over the powerful Medford team. Coach Bower-
man of Medford said tnat ne had never expected to see a harder charging line
or a taster backfield than his, but after the game he said that Eureka had both.
Eureka 20 Crescent City 0
The varsity retired, after running up 14 points to give the second squad
a long-awaited break. Determined to make good, the second squad demonstrat-
ed the results of diligent training by expert blocking which paved the way for
Halkides' 40-yard run to a touchdown. Longhoim and Harrison had. previously
chalked up the points in an otherwise sluggish game.
Eureka 9 Arcata 7
Failing to show any of their superior power, Eureka was clearly outplayed
in the first half by the determined Arcata "Tigers',. At the beginning of the
second half with the score 7 to 0, Eureka returned to form and smothered Bral-
ich of Arcata behind his own line giving Eureka two points. Eureka then un-
leashed one of her famous goal line drives and plowed through for the winning
touchdown. A

After three periods of ceaseless pounding, the "Cavemen" weakened and
Harrison plunged over for the first tally of the game. Taking spirit from this
success, Halkides tossed a beautiful 40-yard pass to Bird on the S-yard line
where he stepped over for the final score.
Eureka 27 St. Mary's 0
On Armistice Day a crowd of 1500 saw the "Loggers" perform the almost
incredible feat of chalking up three touchdowns against St. Mary's in 'the first
quarter. Longholm scored the first touchdown with a 42-yard run to the goal
line. On the next play following the successful conversion, Durdan returned
with a 46-yard run to pay dirt. Longholm got the ball again and raced another
26 yards for the third touchdown in the first quarter. Late in the second quar-
ter Harrison carried the ball to the two-yard stripe from where "Po0ky,'
Cunningham climbed over for the fourth and final score. This game was fea-
tured by the colorful card stunts composed of a group of 300 students under the
direction of Mr. Nix.
Eureka 20 Ferndale 0
Eureka won the C. I. F. title for the third consecutive year by downing
Ferndale on the muddy field of Albee Stadium. Chet Allen nabbed a fumble to
put the ball in scoring position from where Cunningham went over for the
first score. In the third quarter Longholm raced 44 yards through the middle
of the Ferndale team to another score. Captain Rod Coffron intercepted a
pass on the 39 yard line from where a series of line plunges brought the final
score.
Eureka 14 San Jose 7
' Eureka emerged from the mud of "Redwood Acres" with a decisive win
over the undefeated San Joseans. Durdan shook the mud from his cleats and
broke away for the first score which brought the whole crowd off the damp
bleachers. Len Longholm went over for the second touchdown and made the
conversion good, bringing the score to 14 to 0. Just before the gun sounded
the half, Bill Hodges, quarterback, was knocked out while stopping Kmetovich.
In the second half San Jose made one touchdown, however, the impregnable
Eureka line held the invaders to one score.
Eureka 26 Hoopa 6
The long-awaited Hoopa game gave the second and third strings the chance
they had been waiting for. Franny Aggler, next year's captain, took the ball on
the kickoff and ran 85 yards to a touchdown. In the free-for-all which followed,
Joe McCann, Les Rose, and Frank Potter helped to heap up the final score of
26 to 6.

Eureka High School turned out :mother championship heavyweight team
in the 1958 season. Though the lightweights were defeat.d by Fortuna, they
provided more thrais and close games than the heavy squad. AS a new rcature
this Year, a "C" and "DU division was organ.zed. Coached by Les Mooneyharn
the midgets p.ayed ieur games during tne football seassn. ine midgets opened
their season with Arcata. The "CU game was the " Tigers" from start to finish.
However the UD" team fought through two overtime periods to win 18-14.
In their second battle, the "CU team was more successtul and defeated the
Ferndale five 22-16. As before, the "D" team had to go into extra time to de-
cide the winner with Eureka coming out on top 20-16. The next game with
Fortuna resulted in both teams losing close games. In the final games with Fern-
dale, the "D" team lost a close game. The 'LCN team ended strongly with a 10
point lead over the Ferndale boys.
The call for heavyweight basketball was issued immediately after the close
of the football season. A large squad turned out and Coach Willard soon had
a smooth ball-playing machine in action. After the graduation of Allen and
Durdan, North and Carranco held down first string positions. Jack Mozzini,
at center, often cbtained the tip-off from centers over 6 inches taller than
himself. As a preliminary to the regular C. I. F. schedule, seven players journeyed
north during the Christmas vacation. They played two games, winning from
Albany, 41-24 and losing a game at Corvallis 13-16.

The first game of the 1938 season opened in the new Civic Auditorium
with Eureka taking a double header from Ferndale. The heavyweight game was
a one-sided affair. Don Durdan led the scoring with 19 points to add up the
total of 39 against 23 for Ferndale.
The lightweight game, however, was anything but one-sided. The Red
and Green was five points behind at half time in a stubbornly fought game.
"Skip" Matson, with 15 points, led a second half rally to raise the final score
to Eureka 29, Ferndale 26.
The Eureka teams won both ends of a double header at Fortuna to rate
first place in the C. I. F. hoop standings. joe McCann led a brilliant passing
attack to cinch 13 points for his team. The heavy squad romped through their
game easily winning 36-7.
Both squads returned home from Crescent City with a strong victory over
the Del Norte squads. "Skip" Matson and Ferguson piled up the points for the
lightweights for a final score of 29-16. Durdan and Longholm did the scoring
honors for the heavies. The final score found Eureka leading 39-29.
Eureka kept her undefeated record by swamping the game l-Ioopa squads.
Darrel Brown and Jack Mozzini led the scoring with 14 points each.
Eureka added another victory to their increasing string in a lively battle

The Loggers took a decided lead in the C. I. F. League when they scored
heavily over the fighting Arcata "Tigers", The lightweights, paced by "Gibby"
Matson won 34-23. The heavies won easily 36-25, jack Mozzini accounting
for 18 of the 36 points.
The Red and Green quintets lost their first games of the season to Ferndale
in the Cream City gym. Bertleson and Miller led the heavies in a scoring spurt
with 22 and 18 markers. True to form, the lightweight game was much closer.
"Gibby" Matson chalked up 9 markers but the finol score left Eureka trailing
21-29.
The Fortuna lightweights moved the Eureka lightweights into second place
in their return bout in the Civic Auditorium. The lightweights provided their
usual close, scrappy game, but slipped beh.nd in the last quarter to lose 23-25.
The heavies played their usual trong game to Win 26-23.
The Eureka heavyweights cinched the C. I. F. championship and the light-
weights tied with Fortuna in two easy wins over Crescent City. The locals were
not in danger in either game, the heavies winning 43-21, while the light-
weights scored 28-12 over their opponents.
The scrappy South Fork lightweight team outscored Eureka's lightweight
quintet 37-22 in a seemingly easy game. The Red and Game squad couldn't
seem to click until it was to late to whittle down the large score. The heavy-
weights avenged this defeat by trouncing the South Fork heavies, 5 S-21. Mozz-
ini hit the hoop for 18 points followed by Halkides with 12.
The Loggers closed the 1938 season with two strong wins over the Arcata
fives. Joe McCann led 'the lightweights with 10 points. During the whole game
Arcata scored but two field goals. The heavies played their usual snappy game,
winning easily 44-19. Halkides, Longholm, and Mozzini led the scoring with 14,
12, and 9 points respectively.
Owing to the discovery that one of the Ferndale players was ineligible, Fern-
dale was forced to forfeit all games, leaving Eureka and Fortuna tied for the
l.,qhtweigh-t title.
The C. I. F. schedule wound up to a thrilling finish in the play-off for
the championship in the Eureka Civic Auditorium. The heavyweights, already
champions, played the preliminary game and proved themselves champions
without a doubt, winning 34-27. The lightweights, however, played their usual
point-matching game that kept the crowd of 1200 staning. The final gun ended
the game leaving the score standing Fortuna28, Eureka 27.
As 'the final event of the basketball season the heavyweights and light-
weights met in a closing bout in the local gym. The lightweights led by their
fighting captain "Pooky" Cunningham playfed a hard game, but were handi-
capped by the superior height of the heavies. At the close of the game the light-
weights had to acknowledge their friendly opponents winners by a 31-23 score.

GIRLS'
The physical education program was well balanced and especially interest-
ing this year. The girls played hockey and soccer until the rains started in
the fall. Both games are played in the same formation with eleven players on
a team. Hockey is more difficult as it requires quick footwork and skill in
the manipulation of the hockey sticks.
With the beginning of fair weather in the spring, baseball and field ball
started. Both games are popular outdoor sports. Tennis, also, was followed en-
thusiastically by many girls. Every nice day the courts were crowded. Our
instructors encourage participation in this game as it is one of the few high
school sports that is played by people after theyf leave high school.
During the winter season, mass paddle badminton and mass deck tennis
were enjoyed. Both are played in volleyball formation with two teams of six
players each. In badminton, wooden paddles similar to those of ping pong and
a shuttle cock are used. A rubber ring is used in deck tennis. As the girls' gym
accomodates four nets, a large portion of a class may play at one time.
At least once a week the girls practiced folk dancing. This is one of the
oldest forms of amusement known to man. It expresses the emotion and char-
acter of a race. As the dances of various countries are widely different, it seems
natural that the music accompanying them is also different. Much is learned
about rhythm and the various types of music from an intelligent use of folk
dances in gym work. It is a thoroughly democratic pastime whose freedom and
joyousness helps develop poise and grace. In cities young peoples' groups are
studying folk dances for pleasure and at their social affairs these dances as
well as modern dances are enjoyed.
Folk dances of several nations were studied in our gym classes. The first
dance learned was the Tuljak, an Estonian dance, which is as gay and carefree
as the Estonian people. The rollicking Irish jig was studied next. A group of
English dances was the most popular of all. Included in this group were Country
Gardens, If All the World Were Paper, Hunsdon House, and The Ampleforth
Sword Dance. Some classes learned The Waves of Tory which is an Irish dance,
and the Little Man in a Fix.
In place of hygiene, corrective posture and foot exercises were given. Al-
though few people realize it, good posture is just as essential to good health as
it is to one's personal appearance. The exercises were planned for general posture
improvement. However, since the most outstanding defect seemed to be round
shoulders, many exercises were given for this alone.

GIRLS'
It is very important to have strong healthy feet,.for they support our
bodies. Serious internal troubles many times are the result of poor feet. In
February, Dr. Carpenter examined every student's feet. As there was too little
time to give a complete examination, only major defects were considered. The
most common ailment was weakened arches. After the examination, exercises
were gives to strengthen Weak arches and in some cases correct minor defects.
Ping pong, the ever popular parlor game, was also played by the girls. Two
tables are provided in the basement. Ping pong, although not strenuous, is a
Very fast game. It requires accurate aim and quick thinking. There is much
rivalryll among the girls to see who is the best player.
Relays and group games were also played. The relays used were the conven-
tional running and skipping with some duck Walk and leap frog races. Some
gym classes played old favorites such as the Flying Dutchman, Dodgeball, and
Three Deep as the group games, while others played artilleryi ball and bronco
tag.
The fourth and fifth periods had the advantage of a student teacher from
Humboldt State College. On Thursdays and Fridays she taught tap dancing
to those who wish to take it. This gro-up of dancers prepared several interesting
dances for the "Coed Revue." On Mosdays she assisted with the regular gym
work.
A tumbling class which met at noon and after school Was organized. These
girls practiced hand-springs, backbends, and other limbering exercises during
some of their periods. Then they were prepared to practice pyramid building
and other stunts when the Whole group met. The tumbling class attired in red
and White rompers presented a large variety of stunts at the "Coed Revue."
Hockey and volleyball were played as after-school sports. All who desired
could play on the after-school teams. In hockey there were three teams, the
seniors, the juniors, and the sophomores. During the early fall these teams prac-
ticed diligently after school, striving for team-work and precision. Because of
early rains the interclass games did not take place.
Volleyball was played in the Junior High School gym. There were two
and several games the teams played for the championship. In the final game,
high school teams, the sopohomore-juniors, and the seniors. After diligent work
the seniors played the junior high school team and Won. This victory completed
the volleyball season.

The Caerulea, printed by the Polytechnic High in Long Beach was dedi-
cated to "Friendship in the Pacific." Various Pacific ports were chosen to rep-
resent the different sections of the book, and pictures of these ports formed
the division pages.
Composite photographs formed the division pages of the Fowler Union
High School annual, the Litoria, which follows the modern trend of more
pictures and fewer editorials.
An interesting feature of the Tokay from Lodi, California, was the mod-
ern pen drawings used as division pages and as illustrations. The picture
arrangement was also very effective.
Old English lettering was used on the introductory pages of the Janus
the Hanford Union High School annual. The faculty pictures were informal
group poses. This idea is gaining widespread popularity.
The Pai is edited by the senior class of the Tamalpais High School in
Mill Valley. It featured individual pictures of class presidents and crayon
drawingsbon buff paper as division pages.
The Valley Argus from Booneville, California, was dedicated to the school
janitor. The lively articles of this annual are illustrated with clever cartoons.
Pearson Burkhead, one of our graduating seniors, took a large numoer
of the pictures for the Petaluma Enterprise. Pearson attended l'eta1uma l-iign
School before transferring to Eureka. 'l ne art editor should DC complimented
for the splendid work done on the division pages, which are all hand made.
The Crater Magazine from Medford, cb egon, has an especially interesting
cover which has two columns of photo aphs. One shows the various high
school departments. The other shows the ultimate results of training in
these departments. I
' The Tomahawk from Ferndale has a bright red jacket with a pen drawing
of-an Indian warrior on it. The signatures of the seniors appear under their
pictures. -
' The Hoopa Valley Echo is Hoopa's first attempt at publishing an annual,
and they have been highly successful. A beautifully tinted photograph of
Hoopa Valley is mounted on the title page. This is followed by a history of
the valley from before the coming of the whites to the present time. The rest
of the book is devoted to classpictures, snaps, and sports. ,We compliment
you, Hoopa, on a lovely book that clearly shows the result of originality, care-
ful thought, and preparation.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The 1938 Sequoia staff wishes to express its gratitude to those who have
helped us so willingly in trying to publish a better and more attractive annual
than ever before. It has been through your efforts and cooperation that we
are able to say that the 1938 Sequoia has been a huge success.
We are especially extending our thanks to our advertisers who have
advertised in our annual and without whose help we would be unable to
publish our year book. We also owe our gratefulness to the Senior Class of
January 1938. This class, though small in number, was able under the expert
guidance of Miss Powell, Mrs. Knighton, Miss Calvert and Mr. Nix to put on
a very successful Class Nite, all of the proceeds of which were given to the
Sequoia. We are certainly indebted to them.
The Sequoia also wishes to take this opportunity to commend the June
Class of 1938 whose advisers were Mrs. Carter, Miss Mathews, Mrs. Klepper,
Mr. Fick and Mr. Guthrie for the large contribution it gave to the Sequoia.
We also extend our appreciation to the
Big E
Glee Clubs
Student Body
Excalibur Club
And to the photographer who was able to secure the air view scenes for us.
We want you to know that the success of the Sequoia can be attributed
largely to all of you who so kindly helped us.
