To Treasure Island, a territory gained without agres
sion, where man has partly realized his peaceful and progres-
sive aspirations, we dedicate this 1939 edition of the Napanee
.lane Van Pelt, Editor.
Napanee--10
Building of Treasures for the Future
This is the year of the Golden Gate International Exposition on Treasure Island
and a "Treasure Island" it is, indeed. Man has collected there his triumphs of art, of
medicine, of engineering, and of science in all its phases. We are prone to stand in awe
and amazement at first before it all and then to take it for granted. Past generations
have handed down to us all these marvelous achievements--their gift to us. VVe forget
the szacrificeg life itself for some has gone into the treasures that are ours today. And
where would We be without them?
Since we are such debtors, since we owe so much to generations that are past, the
obligations of our generation are the greater to contribute our part to the progression
of civilization. Let us contribute with honor our slrare to the race. There is much
left for us to do in the field of medicine, proper housing and living conditions for all
people, intelligent use of our natural resources, and the achieving of a. proper balance
of our responsibilities of employment and of leisure living.
Probably the greatest of all things, Seniors, for your generation to achieve is the
art of getting along together. Better relations and closer understanding between indie-
viduals, groups, and classes within our own country, and between nations must be
achieved. lt is a challenge to you of the younger generation no work these things
through to their ultimate and happy conclusion.
Earle E. Crawford
The glory of man's inspiration and labo-r, exemplified in the beauty of the towlers,
pyramids, and statues, as well as the scientific exhibits of Treasure Island, is impres-
sive. Even more impressive is the challenge to youth for future contributions to this
world of Wonder.
Achievements which bring beauty, romance, and thrills to us who observe them
bring an even greater satisfaction to those who have some part in their creation and
portrayal. Prepare by thorough training, research, and hard work to let your inspira-
tions guide you to worthy accomplishments.
Zelma W isherd
In a world so upset as ours today, there is paramount need for us all, as real
citizens, to do our separate and united best to keep orderly and sane ourselves,
our communities, and our great United States. Let us borrow from "Treasure
Island" the ideas and ideals of order and harmony, of beauty and progress and
k them function in our lives and in all our human relationships.

Every girl enrolled in Napa High is a member of the Girls' League, which
has steadily grown in size and popularity since it was founded in 1925. During the
first semester, the regular business meetings held each month were presided over by
LiC0l'g'lIlZl'l'l1l'OIlC, and by Velden Cantrell, the second. Program chairmen, Yelden
Cantrell and janet Rapaport, always provided worthwhile entertainment after the
business meetings. A council, composed of a representative from each home room,
met once a month with bliss Zelma lWisherd, Dean of Girls and League advisor, to
discuss pressing questions which arose.
At the beginning of each semester, the Senior members of the Club entertained
the new 1'I'CSl1II1CH at the Big and Little Sisters' Tea. Both parties were a great suc-
cess this year, and helped the new girls get acquainted.
The Girls' Jinx, held in October, was a night of fun for every girl who attended.
Prizes for the funniest, prettiest, and cleverest costumes went to Preece Stoddard,
and Lorraine Burch, respectively.
The Yv elfare Committee, headed by planet Rapaport and Nlarian Arnitz, also
played its part well in the League. Each year, the girls give baskets to the needy fam-
ilies of the community. Boxes placed in each room were filled to overflowing before
they were collected and distributed on Thanksgiving.
The outstanding activity of the Girls' League wlas the Vice Versa dance, to
which the girls invited the boys. The untiring efforts of Lucille Wicks and her com
mittee made the affair a really spectacular duplicate of the San Francisco Fair. We
won't forget soon, will we, boys?
The League entertained for the last time at the lvlothersl and Daughters' Tea

y'ear's efforts, was the highlight of the program.

The Boys' League, organized for the first ti1ne this year at Napa Union High
School, endeavors to promote democratic citizenship and cooperation, to preserve and
beautify the school, and encourage worthwhile activities for all boys enrolled.
'lihe need for such an organization was evident for some time. ln l'735, a Boys'
VVelfare organization, directed by llflr. Roy Buchanan, was formed composed of the
president, vice president, and athletic manager of the A.S.H., presidents of the classes,
and other elective members of the student body. lVLany capable and willing boys
worked on the several committees of the club. ln 1930, however, this worthy club
dissolved.
Two years ago, a committee headed by Ernie Sander attempted to form a Boys'
League, but the boys of the school did not seem to agree, and nothing resulted from
the efforts of the committee.
ln the fall of 1938, to meet the need for such an organization, a constitution re-
sembling that of the Girls' League was drawn up under the able supervision of
lllr. Edwin Eagle, presented to the student executive, and ratified. The boys of
student body council acted as a nominating committee to choose the first oihcers.
the
The outstanding meetings of the year included an athletic program, featuring
three interesting boxing matches, a basketball game between the men of the faculty
and the "Papooskinskies". and an illustrated lecture by Mr. Herman Baade describing
his adventures in Alaska.
The chief project undertaken was the promotion of quiet, orderly assemblies.
A fine spirit of enthusiasm and cooperation has been evident from the founding
of the League.

Senior Play , g ,
In Beech Lodge at Bamberly, in Sussex, England, a young girl was confronted
one night with the horrible sight of her murdered father.
Who had done the deed it was almost impossible to fathom. Mrs. Thursby,
wlho had bought Beech Lodge before the Derricks, seemed to be concealing a great
deal. Perkins, the housekeeper, too, Was very queer, perhaps insane. And Martini,
the gardener, was unable to talk about any of the circumistances Without breaking into
a storm of emotion. Then, one night, a half-Malay, Blunt, appeared in the door, try-
ing to sell his wares. He seemed to know too much about the murdered man and a
strange jade god that Millicent had picked up in the Orient.
Victim of everything was poor little Jean Millicent. The curse of the jade God,
supposedly the cause of her father's troubles, seemed to have caught her, too, in its
threat of ill fortune, .and she feared to bring jack Derrick under the same threat by
marrying him. i 1 M,
On the evening of May 5, 1939, the Senior Play cast of Napa Union High School
planned to solve all of these problems. Perhaps the most sustained acting was done by
Georgina Throne, who took the part: of Perkins. Ronald Boone, as Blunt, was an
exceedingly convincing Oriental, with fine pantomime and use of his voice. The dif-
ficult part of llflartin was interpreted with surprising sincerity by Vernon Aldrich.
jean Millicent also required careful portrayal. This character brought to light
the exceptional ability of Vlelden Cantrell to act a highly emotional part without over-
acting. Willa La Vee did a clever piece of interplay with the other actors as
Mrs. Thursby. Walmr Ware, as Peters, made a handsome and handy policeman.
Light spot in the play was ever-hungry Inspector Burke, taken in handsome comic form
by Douglas Hobson. Claire Lowery gave a true picture of an English sister with her
lovely poise and voice. Sustaining all the other parts and binding them together, was
that of the young author, Derrick, which Bill Castner handled with almost professional
contrast and timing.
The mystery, however, will remain unsolved, since the auditorium could not be
used for production. But the cast deserves much tribute for Working thecharacters
and plot out with great finish, most of all, perhaps, because of their spo-rtsmianlikc
cooperation through five long Weeks of rehearsal.

From its arches, a beautiful forty-bell Caril-

apex signifies the rebirth of San Francisco
after the 1906 fire. Arthur Brown, Jr.,

The first success of the Junior Class was to tie the Seniors for the largest percent-
age of membership of parents in the P.T.A.
In athletics, Johnnny Graves, Dominic Petrillo, Slater Smith, Frank Heid, Bill
Bertino, Jerry Caldwell, Louis Coward, Courtney Frittier, Bob Talley, and Ed Clerici,
class prexy for the fall semester, brought glory to the Junior Class. In Napa High's
latest enthusiasm, golf, Perry Holmes had the best average.
Boys are not alone in their athletic prowess, for the G.A.A. learned that the Junior
girls could hold their own. Outstanding in girls' sports, were spring Junior Class
President, Miriam King 5 Lorene Peterson, who Was also the envy of her fellow
typistsg A.S.B. yell-leaders, Lorrainie Williams, Henrietta Beland, and Marjorie
Nloneyg Rosemary Prager, Kathleen Bohen, and Lois Bradford, who often charmed
us with her dance performances in assembly programs as Well.
Those who have earned membership in C.S.F. are Eleanor Burton, Silvia Casassa,
Rosemary Castner, Bob Cudaback, Eleanor Davis, Lorene Peterson, Donald Young,
Cather'ne Zeller, Rosemary Prager, and Suzanne Dopkins, Wfho also brought back
laurels-for her chass wfhen she won first-place in the Treble Clef Society, contest spon-
sored each year by the University of California. That she rightly deserved the award
is realized by all of us who have heard her sing with such ease.
With so many talented members, it is little wonder that the annual junior Barn
dance, a time th,at's fun for all and all for fun, should have been such a success. Then
as a fitting climax to a happy year, came the formal Junior-Senior Prom.
Mr. W. O. johnson, class advisor, was assisted by Mr. Elrick as financial advisor
and Miss Christensen as social advisor.

The first affair of the Sophomores came in the form of a dance, the Sophomore
Hop, held on October twenty-ninth. The committee, under the chairmanship of Dick
Woods, worked hard to make this dan-ce a success. The decorations consisted of large
drawings of horrible creatures referned to as witches and goblins on the four walls of
the Big Gym. The final touch of the Holloween theme was carried out by a human
skeleton dangling from the rafters in the oenter of the Gym. Music was furnished by
Al Thorpe. The first Sophomore social function was declared a huge success by' all.
Some of th-e Sophomores who are showing leadership are Dick Woods, fall semester
president of Junior Forum, Howard Dickenson, French Club president and "Ye Ode
Drama Clubbe" prexyg and Joan Morin, social director of the Latin Club.
ln the athletic field are more prominent Sophs. Charles 'KBud" Townsend, fall
president of the class, is an outstanding athlete. He is the proud possessor of a gold
football. He can also boast justly of the fact that he went over the line for the first
touchdown Napa scored against Vallejo since 1932. Members also of that champion-
ship football team from the Sophomore Class are Bob Cavagnaro and Bill Giovannini.
When the first semester ended, the basketball season was still going strong with a num-
ber of Sophs on both A and B. squads. On the baseball diamond 'any afternoon one
could witness Warren "Lefty" Sosnosky pitching for the Napa Indian nine. Bob Gerth,
Bob Rapaport, and Dick Woods reported faithfully to Coach Meister to help uphold
the name of Napa in tennis singles and doubles.
Bob Corlett was destined to lead the class through the spring semester. Bob also
can be depended upon to be on the list of honor-card holders each quarter and so main-
tains his standing in C.S.F. along with Howard Dickenson, Evelyn Timmons,
,Iacquelyn Wilkenson, Elaine Ferrario, Charlotte Inman, John Dunlap, Bob Rapaport
and Harold Blomberg, president of the honor organization.
The Sophomore girls of G.A.A. tied with the Seniors and Juniors for first place
in interclass basketball, losing only one game to the Juniors. Those who have already
earned Block N's are Eleanor Bones, Elaine Ferrario, Charlotte Inman., Genevieve
Savano, and Jane Hein, who is secretary of the Block N Siociety, of the "Ye Ode
Dnama Clubben, and of the Sophomore Class.
Class advisors for the year were Mr. Edwin Conners, Miss Myrtle Kime, and
Miss Ruth Elliott.

Our first year in Napa Union High School has been a particularly significant one,
and great hopes are held that We, members of the Class of 1942, will make real progress
as we witness the unfolding of the years before us.
Some very interesting events have occurred during this past year-notably, the two
Frosh Initiations, held on September 23 and February 18, the Freshman Reception,
which occurred on October 15, and as the final event of the year, the Frosh Frolic.
The first initiation was, indeed, most interesting. Some of the special features in-
cluded the appearance of members of the Varsity baclcfield, who turned out to be
some of the smaller members of our class, a tomato-eating contest, a shaving contest,
and last, a splendid,dramatiza.tion of the ever popular Romeo and Juliet by Bob Fletcher
and Marion Evans.
The Reception was well attended. The autumn theme was effectively used
throughout and brought much praise from those in attendance. Al Thorpe and his
orchestra played.
General Chairman Donald Blomberg and his committee gave us a most successful
1939 F rosh Frolic. This annual event has developed into an affair to w'hich all new
students look forwiard with anticipation. The main objective of the affair is to give
the Freshmen an opportunity to enjoy their own company. Talent displayed in the
program during the early part of the evening included solos by Les Hein and Steve
Bianchi, piano selections by Virginia Manasse and jean Bertain, dramatic presentations
by Marion Bartels, Jessie Frost, and Virginia Forsythe. The most unique feature
of the evening's entertainment was Lillian Baylinson who held heir audience spellbound
While she waved her magic wand and produced "w'hatnots". Later trhie group ad-
journed to the Band Room for dancing and refreshments.
Unique was the initiation of our mid-year F neshmen. Some of the highlights of
this event wlere an apple-ducking contest, won by Eugene Lathrop, a peanut race in
which Bill Springer showed his supremacy, a violin solo by Donald Crawford, and the
great Whit" of the affair-a bit of fancy romance by none other th-an Beverly Stoll and
the aforementioned Donald Crawford.
The class puts forth its best efforts in other fields than social. Already Marion
Bartels, Neva Sohl, Donald Blomberg, Lorraine Streblow, Doris Harmon, and lylarian
Evans have gained distinction for the frosh by earning membership in the C..S.F.
Class advisors for the year were Mr. Edwin Eagle, Miss Blanche Scott, Miss
Alda Belle Kelsey, and Miss June McGinnis.

Since its first puhlication in lfllll, the Napanee has grown from a literary maga-
zine to a pictorial portrayal of school life. l'or a while, the name was changed to the
Xliuwan, and the magazine hecame a yearhoolc. ln lflii, puhlication of the Napanee
was stopped and Napa Hi stood a serious chance of losing its annual. 'l'hrough the
efforts of the student hody, however, it was saved. During the past three years, it ha.:
won second-place national rating.
'l'he purpose of the Napanee is to serve as a memory hook of four years of high
school life, and its various editions strive to keep pace with the times wlien they are
published.
ln past years, the lay-out of the hook has been seriously limited hy the fact that
much of its financial support was derived from the cluhs. lt was therefore necessary
to devote space to each cluh proportionate to the amount of money paid. This year,
to insure a more adaptahle and interesting plan, it was arranged to release four good
movies, thus freeing the Napanee from space ohligations, and the cluhs from their strugg-
gle to raise money. The plan has proved most satisfactory.
The staff, chosen from memhers of the Senior Class, is formally appointed hy the
president of the A.S.l3. The work of editing the annual rests in the hands of a limited
group of students who feel a great responsibility and pride in their work.
lfaculty financial advisor for the 1039 Napanee was lVlr. C. B. Youtz. Editing
and puhlishing were handled jointly hy lNIiss Helen Blume and liliss june lXlcGinnis
'lihe complete advisorship of the I0-ll! copy will he assumed hy Bliss lilcfiinnis.

The Nuhs, a live-column Weekly journal, published as an authentic source of all
school news, has kept the students informed on school activities. lt isa student-goverlr
ed, student-owned, and student-managed paper.
Last year, in the Quill and Scroll contest, sponsored by the Medill School of
journalism at Northwestern University, the Nuhs captured an international first place
award tor distinctive achievements in scholastic journalism. A national second-place
award was won in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association contest.
The Nuhs was organized in 1922 by enterprising students Who Wanted some means
of relating school business. It was first a mimeographed sheet and since tnat time, has
grown to be a live-column weekly. Subscriptions, which sold semi-annually, average
approximately five hundred each year.
The paper has endeavored to advance the student government at Napa Hi by aid-
ing in the enforcement of the penal code and by promoting orderly halls and assemblies.
The staff hoped, by the use of a letter column, to aid students in expressing their views
on problems and actitvities of the student body.
Several contests were sponsored during the year to stimulate interest and encour-
age contributions to the many columns of the paper. In order to keep up with the
times and give our students the very best type of paper, representatives from
the staff attended the press convention at the University of California, held Nlarch
30, 31, and April 1.
Volume twenty-four of the Nuhs published during the first semester of this year
received another second place award in the Columbia contest.
bliss lllcillahon, who helped to build the Nuhs into one of the best school papers
in the United States, in February turned her duties over to Advisor Robert Linn.

Music
lXIusic at Napa High is finding enthusiastic expression under the direction of Mr.
Nlerle Good and Miss Helen Burfield.
Students and townspeople were thrilled to see a. forty-five-member band march
out in uniform on the Vallejo field the night at the Big Game. One of the most am-
bitious projects of the Band was to purchase beautiful uniforms on a loan. Handsome
trousers were donated by llr. Rothman of the Rough Rider Factory. The Native
Sons of the Golden VVest took the first strep to clear the Band's debt by giving a dance
at the Napa Pavilion on February 21, at which three hundred dollars was cleared.
The Orchestra, too, has contributed largely to many school programs. Also under
the instruction of hair. Good, it built up a dignified atmosphere for the inauguration of
Student Body officers, and for Graduation.
For beginning vocal students, Mr. Good has organized a group of twenty boys
and twenty girls into a Beginners lwixed Clhorus.
Another club showing a vital interest in music is that called tlhe Half-Timers,
composed of students from Miss Burficld's lVIusic Appreciation class. The purpose of
the club is to acquaint its members with all kinds of music, both classical and modern.
Some of the most finely finished choral work has been contributed this year by the
A Cappella Choir, which is sponsored also by Miss Helen Burfield. Dressed in their
lovely blue gowns, these twenty-two advanced singers have supplied a type of music
which compels attention and appreciation.
One of the Choir's biggest enterprises was the Autumn Festival, Where it joined
with the Orchestra and the Girls' Athletic Association to produce a very colorful
p.ogr:un. The Christmas assembly took on a reverent and beautiful atmosphere from
carols sung by blue-clad choristers bearing lighted candles. The choir was also asked
to make many public appearances. ln the fall, Suzanne Dopkins, a member of the
A Capel a, won first place for women soloists at the Treble and Bass Clef music contest
at the University of California.
ln April, our Band, Orchestra, lVIixed Chorus, and A Capella Choir all attended
the School lX'Tusic Festival on Treasure Island, and the Choir attended the All-VVestern
lNIusic Conference at Long Beach.

Home Economics
'lihe Home Economics Department offers several of the most popular courses in
the school. Since its beginning, it has attracted many students and increased steadily
in size. Perhaps the social clubs in the department have helped to make the courses
more interesting. A few of these formed by the elasses under the supervision of their
instructors are the S.U.S. Club, the Service Club, the Triple C, and the He-hlen Club.
The 5.0.5. is an organization of the sewing class. ltr meets outside of school to
make clothes for needy children.
'llhc Service Club, 'l'3'l"l', was formed by the members of the girls' cooking class
and gives the girls training in setting tables and serving properly. Many girls have
obtained occupation through this club.
The Triple C, formed by the Child Care Class, was organized in lflill under the
direction of lVIiss Parker. 'lihe members of the club are all upper-division students
who meet monthly at the home of one of the members. Besides these monthly social
gatherings, the members annually visit the Shriner's Hospital in San Francisco.
'l'he He-Nlen Club is an organization formed of the members of the boys' cooking
class. One of the oldest of the clubs' and one of the most unique, it has also proved
to be so popular that bliss Parker has had to restrict membership to twenty-four Senior
boys.

Honor Societies
National Honor Society
Elwin Covey, President Jane Van Pelt. Viee-President Gladys Cowan, Secretary
The National Honor Society, a nation-wide organization, now has 2-101 chapters
throughout every state of the Union. ln the whole state of Cialifornia, there are but
eight chapters, of which Napa is fortunate to be one.
The honor of election to the National Honor Society is most coveted by ewery
student in school, for it represents the highest award' attainable in any secondary school.
Members are chosen every year by the faculty in recognition of Well-rounded qualities
of scholarship, leadership, character, and service, thie four cardinal objectives of the
society. Any student elected to membership represents special qualities in many di-
versified interests.
Since the Napa Chapter was formed in 1925, with Mr. Walter Hemmerling as
advisor, one hundred fifty-two members have been elected, sixty-four boys and eighty-
eight girls. Thirteen members from the Class of '39 gained this high recognition.
This year, the local chapter undertook a special project of trying to i1nte,rest
other schools of the N ortih Bay League to form new chapters of the society.

Football
Napa High was really put back on the football map this year, for our team cap-
tured a League championship. The Varsity started the season by defeating Mission
High in a practice game. For the first few games of the season, Harrison Briles and
Gene Harris acted as co-captains.
The first Leagwe game was played against Petaluma. Bill Giovaninni scored the
first touchdown of the game by downing the ball which fell over the goal line on the
opening kick-off. This score began a victorious game for Napa. During the League
season Napa won five games ,and lost one.
ln the backfield, playing good defensive football were Gene Harris and John
Graves. The two ends, Harrison Briles and John Brown, could always be depended
upon to back up the line. On the offensive, "Bomber" Dom Petrillo, captain for the
season, and Bud Townsend played excellent football.
The annual N apa-Vallejo game was the very best in tvvielve years for Napa, as
the team defeated the Navy City team by a score of 7-0 for the League title.
The entire team this year worked as .a unit with no true star players. Each man
handled his assignment Well. Elected to the all-conference team Wvere Harrison Briles,
John Brown, and Gene Harris. Certainly much credit should be given to Coaches
Herm Meister and John Colledge for producing such, a championship team.
The Napa Papooses, under Captain Paul Bohen, fought hard in all their games,
but were up against heavy odds. With plenty of figlhting spirit, the players gave some
fine exhibitions of hard-fought football.
Opening the season with a practice game against St. Helena Varsity, the light-
weights showed promise of good materialg but in the next few games, it seemed qhat
they were off to a bad start.
Throughout the season, Gerry Caldwell, triple-threat man, gave other teams some-
thing to Worry about. Captain Paul Bohlen and his brotheqr, Roy, were strong in the
line. Ed Clerici, anotlher line man, stood out wfhen it came to stopping line plunges.
Bill Bertino, all-round muan in passing, kicking, and running, proved to be the most
valuable player on the team. Mel McMurtry's jarring tackles proved effective more
than once during the season.

Coach Bob La Rue did not claim a championship team this past season, but he
surely had sometihing there. More than onlce, We lost by only a very slim majority.
Outside of the first Vallejo game, each conference game was missed by not more
than fo-ur points, and during the seamn, we had to play three overtime games to Work
off ties. Things looked brrigiht when t.he season opened with a victory over Sonoma on
December 2. Napa's speedy five completely outclassed the Dragons. That seems strange
when one realizes tlhat at the end of the season, Sonoma wlas the champion team of this

depended on Graves and Kinder for offensive playing. If Harris, strong in both de-
fensive and offensive, had not been dcisqualified in February because of four years' play,
Napa might have won a higher rating in tlhe League. Petrillo, Cowan, and Dellama-
dalena were able supaporters of Na.'p1a's first string. Twenty boys-four complete teams
-went out fo-r A basketball this season. Tlhe third and fourth-string substitutes
formed "The Ramblers", who were undefeated in their night games.
D0esn't that indicate that Napa fans should see some mighty fancy basketball on
the Lincoln Avenue hardwood next season?
Howard Talley, captain of the B team, rightfully deserved the honor bestowed
him by his team-mates, for he consistently played' fast, steady ball. He and Clerici al-
ways put on a show, passing, dribbling, and sinking 'em from odd angles. Though
the team did not earn a high position in League standing, the boys lost their games by
slim margins, and Coach Colledge felt that his efforts were not in vain.
With Max Trujillo as its captain, the C Basketball team put up a brave fight.
Though no conference honors were sacked, Coach La Rue says it must be remembered
that every boy on the team was playing competitive high-school basketball for the first
time, and therefore much credit is due the squad.

G. A. A., directed by Miss Rdargery McCormick, showed unusual enthusiasm
during 1938-1939, with Phyllis Bryan and Beverly Doughty as fall and spring presi-
dents.
Color week was held November 7-12. The sale of pompoms and emblems which
added so mu-ch color and pep to the never-to-be-forgotten Vallejo game, helped also to
enlarge the association's treasury. On December 3, the Napa girls were hostesses to
St. Helena and Sonoma at a volleyball play day. Although Niapa Won both games, all
the teams p ayed a good game of volleyball. At the annual G. A. A. Christmas party
for incoming Freshmen girls, held Thursday afternoon, December 15, novel programs
in the form of letters to Santa were presented to the members and their guests. The
success of the affair was greatly due to the untiring efforts of Beverly Doughty and her
committee, and tio Lorene Peterson, wiho impersonated Santa. When the girls convened
at the gymnasium of the Santa Rosa Junior College for another play day on February
13, they had a grand time.
The Hockey Honor Team for the past year was composed of L. Wright, L.
Peterson, M. Money, H. Beland, F. Hunter, G. Savano, V. Switzer, L. VVilliams, M.
King, L. Bradford, and A. Vidal. The Volleyball Honor Team: H. Beland, L.
VVilliams, B. Burch, C. Inman, M. King, L. Peterson, G. Savano, A. Vidal, and B.
Richardson. The Basketball Honor Team: Forwards-B. Doughty, M. King, L.
Peterson, L. Williams. Guards-M. Money, B. Burch, L. Bradford.
As the year drew to a close, tennis, badminton, archery, and swimming brought
many enthusiastic G. A. A. members into interclass games. Parties, hikes, weinie-roasts
and banquets helped round out a successful season. The final play day of the year held
at Vallejo saw Napa, Benicia, and Vallejo takingipart in various games. The G. A. A.
year was brought to a close at the combined banquet held in Vallejo, with Napa and
Sonoma girls as guests. Block N awards were made and the interclass cup was pre-
sented to tihe Juniors, the class winning the most points.
At the award assembly in June, Phyllis Bryan received the only fourth-year award.
instead of the usual purple chenille letter, a gold pin was presented to her. Third-
year awards were given to Margie Money, Mirriam King, Lorene Peterson, Virginia
Switzer, and Lorraine Williams. Seoond-year blocks were presented to Hetta Beland,
Eleanor Bones, Kathleen Bohen, Lois Bradford, Beverly Doughty, Elaine Ferrario,
Barbara Geoghegan, Jane Hein, Charlotte Inman, and Genevieve Savano.
