Eat ina ana llgg I 948 A SENIOR PUBLICATION OF OXNARD UNION HIGH SCHOOL VOLUME 48 JUNE, 1948 The Principal's Message The Principalls message this year is more of a review of the past thirty- three years and a personal farewell than one of advice and farewell to the Class of 1948. During the past thirty-three years the student enrollment of the Oxnard Union High School has increased from one hundred twenty-five to eleven hundred twenty-five and the faculty from eight to forty-four. In 1921-22 new buildings were erected on a new site and new courses have been added as needed and the old ones expanded. The aim has been to meet the needs of the boys and girls of the high school. Preliminary plans are now being made for additional buildings to eliminate the congestion resulting from the rapid growth of the past few years and to provide for an expanded program for the young people. It has been interesting to note the development of the high school and a satisfaction that one has been a part of it. The accomplishments have been many although one realizes that all things have not been done as desired. As Principal, I have appreciated the cooperation of the Board of Trustees, teachers, students, and patrons of the school. Without their support our accomplishments would have been limited. It has been gratifying to note the progress of the members of the gradu- ating classes through the years. Many are now holding enviable positions in their various fields of activity and are outstanding citizens of their re- spective communities. The present Senior class is the largest in the history of the high school. The opportunities of its members are unlimited and success will depend upon ability, preparation, and application. As a farewell, my best wishes go to each member of the class with the hope that the highest degree of success will be attained. W. D. Bannister, Principal Dedication We, the class of 1948, gratefully dedicate this issue of the Cardinal and Gold to our own Oxnard Union High School. Throughout our years in high school we have come to love our school. We have come to respect and admire our leaders and to ap- preciate the wise counsel and ready aid they have given us. As it is now time for us to leave, we ask ourselves a very important question, What has our high school taught us? The answer is that it has taught us to be good citizens and has prepared us for better living. Many of us look back on our four years in high school as happy memories. Yet, if we had the chance to re-live these years, very few of us would do so. We cannot go back- we have learned that the opportunity of for- ward progress must be grasped when it ap- pears, that delay is dangerous. We know that the knowledge we have gained in high school is essential as a means of a happy existence in this modern world. Schema!

McKinna With deep regret at the loss of such a good friend, we wish to express our ap- preciation for the untiring energy and the helpful spirit which Mr. Percy Den- nis always displayed during his twenty- six years of service on the Oxnard Union High School Board. He was a man of great integrity who always kept the good of the community uppermost in his thoughts and actions. As County Supervisor he stood firmly for the rights of the people and as a member of the Board of Trustees of the High School his chief concern was to provide a complete and useful education for the young people of the High School District. His presence and counsel will be greatly missed, but the educational opportunities which he has helped to build will live through the years. J. M. Aggen E. O. Green The School Board We write with pleasure of our School Board, which consists of five of Oxnard's must prominent citizens who are able and willing to devote their time and energy to the problems of our high school. As in previous years, they have stood by us and played one of the leading roles in making our school what it is today. The Board for the Oxnard Union High School is made up of Mr. J. D. Mc- Grath, Presidentg J. M. Aggen, Vice-Pres- identg J. L. Fulton, Clerkg E. O. Green, and M. McKinna. These men have worked together as a unit, trying to promote the betterment of the school of which we are so proud today. We sincerely appreciate their efforts and know that future stu- dents will cooperate more than ever with the Board in making our school a finer place in which to gain valuable knowledge. 2111 gfllliemuriam W D Bannister Administrators F. S. Browne With Mr. Bannister's goodbye, every student should realize that he now carries a greater responsibility for the school. The future of OUHS, as always, lies in the hands of each and every student, but moreso next year. Of course, there will be a new principal to take Mr. Bannister's place, but it will take time for anyone to become accustomed to the workings and traditions of the school, thus these traditions and workings must be continued and upheld by the stu- dents themselves. Mr. Bannister will be sorely missed, but his absence can not permit a letdown of the students in their duties toward the school. Aiding and abetting the student body, as they have in the past year, will be Mr. Floyd S. Browne, vice- principalg Mrs. Mabel C. Brown, dean of girls, and Mr. Forrest E. Wester- lund, dean of boys. 9?7.ff 160-fwfyk Mrs. M. C. Brown F. E. Westerlund Mr. F. E. Westerlund, Vice- President, Mrs. C. Wester- velt, President, Miss R. Stiles, Secretary, Mr. H. C.

Associated Student Body 311080 KaUafY101'i f A Gene Bell J ack Swain Bobbie Seaman The Student Body activities for the year 1947-48, under the direction of our president, Jack Swain, have enjoyed the participation of all members. Through the able management of our vice president, Bobbie Biller, We have enjoyed some very interesting and entertaining assemblies. Oustand- ing among the programs have been the Volga Troubadorsg Juan Serrano, the M. A. Marionettesg Phil Kerr, composer, and Ralph Platt, Whistler, Happy Holly, Jean Eastwood Collins, a former Oxnarder who gave several clever pantomimesg Dr. Eckert, well-known family-relation counselor, and the Brass Choir from the University of California at Santa Barbara. Beginning with the Get-Acquainted Dance, several social events have high-lighted the year, including the Junior--Senior Dance, Football Formal and the Sox dance. Two innovations have been made by the A.S.B during the year, includ-- ing the formation of a Student Council and the establishing of the Demerit System. ' Officers Delores Jones, secretary, Shogo Kanamori, treasurer, Gene Bell, sergeant-at-arms and Bobbie Seaman, cheer leader, have given the president and vice-president their whole-hearted cooperation and have worked hard to make the Student Body's year a success.

Moon. tudent Council It was decided that the membership of the Student Council should be en- larged this year. After the Associated Student Body president, Jack Swain, had chosen his council for this year, an initiatory meeting was called to inform the members of their purpose and duties. All the business which goes through the Student Body is first brought to the Student Council to be discussed and then presented to the Student Body as a whole. After the first meeting the vice-president, Bobbie Biller, took over as offi- cial chairman, since the Constitution points out that the vice-president of the Student Body shall serve as chairman of the Student Council. The wheels of the council began to turn as work got under way. The first project of the Council was the proposal and drawing up of two amendments to the A.S.B. Constitution. One of these amendments was passed by the Student Body vote and immediately put into effect. The' amendment stated that the Student Council should be enlarged to contain the president and one representative of each club or organization, the Buzz staff, the Cardinal and Gold staff and the Student Court, in addition to the class presidents, two representatives from each class, and the Student Body officers. Thus the num- ber of the Student Council was increased from 16 to 30 members. Four representatives of the Council, accompanied by Jack Swain and Mr. Floyd Browne, attended each of the Santa Barbara-V e n t u r a I n t e r-school Council meetings. One of the other activities of the Council was to revise some of the Student Court rules. All in all, those of the Student Council feel they have done their job well for the year of 1947-48, and they appreciate the cooperation of students and faculty members, because without their help the work of the Student Council could not be successful. Student Court and Patrol Nona Keltner, Asst. S-ecretaryg Joyce Brinks, Secretaryg Phillip Silva, Bailiffg Albert Moon, Chief Justiceg Merrill Jessup, Bailiffg Ralph Pederson, Patrol Captain: Lloyd Welfare, Bailiff The Student Court and Student Pa- trol, features of the Student Body Gov- ernment, are for the purpose of keeping order in the corridors and courts. The pa- trol Was organized under patrol captain Ralph Pederson, assisted by three depu- ties, Harold Keer, Bernard Nebenzahl, Travis Maliecoat and lieutenant John Husbands. Ideals of conduct on the part of bands. Ideals of conduct on the part of patrolmen, together with certain academ- ic quaifications, give marked significance to appointed Student Service duty. Citizenship requirements entail a minimum citizenship rating of 97. An average of C is required with preference going to students with A and B averages. If more than three demerits are imposed the patrolman concerned is automatically removed from future service. Six Weeks reserve duty is the penalty for three de- merits or less. Student Body members and faculty personnel agree that the Student Service organization as it functioned in the years 1947 and 1948, serves to increase civic spirit and cooperation in maintaining a government of and for the students.

Q Seniors The graduating class of 1948 had a year packed full of fun and activities. They broke records in spectacular achievements and broke precedent in choosing senior rings. The rings of previous years have been rectangu- lar, but the 48 class changed that with an oval-shaped ring, very fancy and quite smart. During the first semester, the juniors and seniors sponsored a school dance. To- ward December the class called special meet- ings to decide on directors for the Senior Scandals. The Senior Scandals is a variety show which began last year and has now be- come traditional. Charles Hackett was chosen director with James Campbell, Nona Keltner, and Jim Hughes as assistant directors. Mary Ellen Seaman, vice-president of the class, was producer. More than fifty seniors Worked to make the Scandals a success. The second senior production was the senior play held in the spring. The seniors ordered their class sweaters of Kelly green before the second semester. They arrived only a few months before school was out. Senior ditch--day brought a welcome legal holiday. The annual senior breakfast was held at the Tom Tom. The seniors are leaving a hall picture as their memorial to the school.

What Goes 011- . Haw Freshmen The freshmen astounded the school this year by having more of their class- men on Scholarship during the first se- mester than any other class. A Week before Easter vacation, the freshmen presented flowers to all the class rooms and on March 19, they pre- sented an assembly on the Easter theme. They also brightened the halls with pos- ters.

Robert Englander confused and startled students with his 'Tied Faces column. Fluffy's Diary, a standing fea- ture, brought out the human side, while Mary Ellen Joiner's Fads and Fashions column brought best dressers to the front. The Buzz staff changed hands at the beginning of the second semester. The editor during this semester was Joan Harbertg feature editor, Soupie Camp- bell, and sports editor, Charles Mitchell. Kathleen Hartley handled the job of ex- changing school papers. Buzz Staff BUZZ EDITORS: First Sem- ester Cabovel, Dorothy Sworg S e c o n d Semester ibelowb, Joan Harbert The Buzz staffs for this year have experienced more changes than any of the staffs in previous years. During the first semester there was a change in advisors, and immediately follow- ing, a change of editors, but the staffs consistently overcame these difficul- ties and turned out some of the best school papers in the history of the school. In previous years the Buzz was mimeographed and lacked much which makes for a good looking pap-- er, but this year, due to the efforts of the students and the cooperation of the teachers, the Buzz ranks with the best school papers in the county. Another change this year in the tradition of the Buzz staff was that at the half the juniors took over the Buzz from the seniors. This means that next year the Buzz staff will be made up of experienced staff members rather than students who know noth- ing of the workings of a school paper. It is hoped that in the future the Buzz will continue to express the student's points of view and bring the student body and the faculty closer together. 060 g nf- Co-editors Nona Keltner and Dorothy Wennerholm fAboveJ Business Manager Don Weitz and Sales Manager Doris Cota, fBelowj Photog- raphy Editor Ed Ungerman and Art and Layout Editor, Rebecca Prescott C Sz G Staff Plans for the 1948 Cardinal and Gold be- gan early in the year, under the direction of Mr. Perry O.

The Schollies are given a half day off each quarter. This year, the members of the Scholarship So- ciety had some really good times on their half days off. During the first quarter they Went to the Ice Capadesg on their second day off they Went to Sunset Lane in Holly- Wood and then to a movie. During the third quarter they Went on a picnic at Oak Grove. ' A banquet was held in honor of the Life Members of the society during the fourth quarter. When the Senior Scan- dals Were presented they included a group of members called the Scholarship Quar- tet and they were really a hit. The purpose of this organization is to foster a higher standard of scholarship and broader ideals of service on the part of the students of Oxnard Union High School. At the end of the year, President George Inadomi thanked Vice-President Shirley Hackney, Secretary Kathryn Biit- tel and Treasurer, Gerald Vanoni for their help in making the society's year a successful one.

A successful year for the club was highlighted by a reception held for the French clubs from all the schools in the county and Santa Barbara. Each school contributed part of the program which was in French. Another event which was enjoyed by most of the members was a trip to Los Angeles, where they saw a movie in which the French language was spoken.

Girls' League Under the able guidance of Colleen Seaman, the Girls' League had a very successful year. Those helping to make the year successful were Vice-President, Barbara Billingerg Secretary, Kathryn Biittelg Treasurer, Delores Jones, Ser- geants-at-arms, Marilyn Bauer and Roberta Nicholson. The object of the Girls' League is to promote self-govern- ment among the girls of the school, to promote friendship between the girls and the faculty and to promote activities for the welfare of the school and the girls. Every girl enrolled in the day classes of OUHS is a mem- ber, but only those who have paid their dues are eligible to vote and to have the privilege of serving on any of the vari- ous committees that are appointed. This year has been filled with many successful activities sponsored by the Girls' League. In order to acquaint the new girls enrolled in the school with the other members of the League, a Little Sisters' Tea was held. To climax the annual Cotton Festival the queen and her attendants were crowned at a dance held in their honor. The annual Girls' League Convention, held in Inglewood, and the Regional Conference, held in Santa Barbara, were attended by repre- sentatives of the League. In place of the Mothers' Tea this year the Eighth Grade Convention was held. All eighth grade students from the Oxnard Union High School District were invited to attend this Convention in order to acquaint them with the school and its facilities. l Uniform Court The Uniform Court, a branch of the Girls' League, is again enforcing the uni- form requirements for the girls of OUHS. This year the uniform consisted of a White tailored blouse and a skirt of any color. All girls who have not conformed to the regulations are brought into the Court once each month and are tried. At the beginning of the year, Chief Justice Marilyn Bauer sent letters to the mothers of all Freshmen girls telling them the purpose of the uniform and of what it consisted. All in all, the girls have been very cooperative this year. Row III-B. Galloway. D. Burger, D. Hurt. R. Prescott, R II-B D r'n S. H kne' C. Smith R. Bo nton. ow . e 1 g, ac 5, . y B. Vvinters.

The Lost and Found is another de partment sponsored by the Girls League and consists of approximately 18 girls. When a student finds an article he turns it in to the Lost and Found and there it is redeemed by its rightful owner. A charge of five cents per ar ticle is made. Two girls who should be given cred it for their untiring effort in the Lost and Found are Mary Ellen Seaman manager, and Joyce Polley, assistant manager. At the end of each semester a sale is held of all the articles that have not been claimed. All the proceeds at the sale are turned over to the Girls League. 113 G. Kanamori. L. Omo. G. Kurihara, J.

During football season all OU mem- bers had a chance to earn leadership points by marching in the flag ceremony before each game, and between halves the girls sold cokes, candy and hotdogs. Members that marched at every game received five leadership points. Several meetings were called during the year to discuss a skating party, planned for the month of April, and later a swimming party was planned.

Their performance for the G.A.A. was enjoyed by many students who have missed a Boys, Chorus in the high school in other years. I-J Martin B Smith. R. Dennis, .I. WVilson. J. Christopher, J.

Mr. Fred Davis, advisor and director of the Band, devoted the first half of the year Wholly to the development of the Band. The Band began to make outside appearances the latter half of the school year. The aim of the Band is to further the cause of music appreciation. One of the many places attended by the OUHS Band was the Band Festival held in Santa Barbara in the spring. They also played for the Back-to-School night program sponsored by the P.T.A. A sur- prise appearance Was made by the Band at the Junior Play. The officers of the Band this year Were: President, Jeannine Morrisg Vice-- President, Pat Skeetsg and Librarians, Charlotte Smith and Rogelio Lopez. Junior Play The class of 1949 presented the annual Junior Play, Growing Painsf' on November 8, in the high school auditorium. The story depicted the typical teen-ager's life.

The plot takes form when Judy and her friend Mitzi, enter numerous contests in order to raise money for the Community Relief Fund, and to keep their arch rival, Tootsie Whiteman, from becoming queen of the forthcoming Community Relief Dance. Not only do Judy and Mitzi become involved in many chaotic circumstances, but they also entangle J udyls family and her boyfriend, Oogie, in the humorous situations that unfold into the surprise ending.

Football The Yellowjackets' 1947 football season started off with a low moan when we dropped the first four games by a consider- able margin, and ended with a loud roar as We beat Lancaster and trounced the favored Santa Maria team. Among those to receive honors was Jack Swain, who was named as second string all- county halfback. Those receiving honorable mention were Rex Hart, fullback, Ted Hob- son, guard, Perry Cooper, center, and Bill Schreiner, end. Jack Swain and Rex Hart made an es- pecially good showing against Santa Paula and Santa Maria. The line was reinforced from time to time by such promising boys as Ed Ungerman, running guard, Wally Clezie, a two year veteran and Roger Von Allmen, also a veteran guard. Paul Diffenderffer, a three-year varsity center, also made a good showing. Up from the ranks of last year's Junior Varsity came Jim Fultz, end, Bob Delp, half- back and Gil Garcia, quarterback. Our head mentor, Willard Price, a gradu- ate of U.S.C., started the season with an unorthodox single wing but later reverted to the T. Coach Price was ably assisted by line coach Brick Bright, also a graduate of U.S.C. The season ended and We went ahead ,gal with plans for one of the year's biggest events. The twenty-second annual football banquet and formal Was a success, due to the hard work of Mrs. J. D. Spohn, the mother of Jack Swain, our captain. The highlight of the banquet was the Booster Club award for the most improved player of the year in the line and backfield. Rex Hart, fullback, got the backfield award and Perry Cooper, center, the lineman award.

Junior Varsity Football For the first time since the War the Jun- ior Varsity went into full swing, playing most of the schools in the county. Coached by Bert Killingsworth and Jack Hileman, their per- formance on the turf is not to be overlooked. With a season of three Wins and three losses it appears that our team to come will be one to Watch. The teams that they are play- ing now, as a Junior Varsity, will be the same teams they will play in varsity competition. With the improvement of years there is no telling what is in store for these boys in their remaining years at Oxnard. They were sparked by such players as Loy Wong, and Gilbert Eberhard, two quarterbacks who were advanced to the varsity at the end of the year. Others in the backfield were three hard- running backs, Bedford Pinkard, Bill Beck and Jim Fergeson. Not to be outshone was Phil Norton, who didn't letter but gained rec- ognition from his own coach and from others of the county as one of the best line backers. Bill Miller Was chosen by the coach as the most improved lineman of the season, Row I: Kananiori. Schreiner, McYihan, Swain, VVeitz. Lee, Pinkard. Lewis fMgrJ.

Basketball Co captains Ralph Joiner and Bert lfrgzns talk over the basektball season With Coach Burt Killings- Worth. The Oxnard HA squad, headed by Bert Bruns and Doug Joiner, had a tough time winning games this season. They started the season with Ventura, only to be beaten 46 to 14. The next game was encouraging to the squad, when they beat little William S. Hart 67 to 23. The squad then traveled to Fillmore, to be tripped 45 to 43 in a thriller. With two losses behind them, they traveled to Santa Paula Where they defeated the Cardinals, 57 to 40. Then Lancaster came up with a sur- prise to dump the Yellovvjackets, 25 to 56. Again Ventura triumphed over Oxnard, 75 to 25. William S. Hart fell again under the Jackets, playing, 52 to 21. Fillmore then was surprised, to be beaten 53 to 52 in another thriller. Santa Paula came back to bounce the Jackets, 39 to 25. For the final league game the Yellovvjackets gave the Lancaster five a good fight only to be beaten 36 to 30. ln the end the Oxnard Yellowjackets came out in fourth place. High scorer of the league games was Richard Cecchini, Who scored 47 points in the first two games he played. He had a total of 70 points for the season of league games. The basketball coach this year was Burt Killingsworth. Lewis Dumas tosses one from the free-throw line in the first Ventura game. Jackets Bed- ford Pinkard and Bert Bruns wait for a rebound.

The squad came out with two wins over Wm. S. Hart and lost to the rest of the league teams. High point man for the season was Gilbert Eberhard who averaged ten points per game. George Inadomi, captain of the B's , was also a high point getter with his two hand shots. As the basketball season came to a close, the C squad had to its credit seven wins out of nine games. The high point getter was Joe Hosaki who was supported by thirteen other cagers. Captain for the midget cagers was James Flaming. They were coached by Vance Davis.

On March 8, the team elected Richard Walker as captain, although last year there Was no captain. The league schedule was finished early in April and the season was topped off by a county Tennis Championship, and a major tour- nament at Ojai in April.

Track Unlike other sports on the Jacket sport calendar, track was off with a big bang. In their first meet of the season, the OUHS thin-clads overpowered all local competition to win the Ventura 20-30 Relays and add a beautiful 5-foot trophy to the school show- case. Over 100 athletes turned out for the spring sport. Some new talent was found, but the gaps left open by graduation this year may be hard to fill when track season rolls around next year. Returning next fall to add more power to the squad of '49 are Roy Wennerholm and Roger Helm in the sprintsg Eugene Imus in the 440g Frank Silva in the 880g Verge Wil- lard in the pole vaultg and Fred Braden and Bill McCampbell in the high jump. These are but a few who will try and uphold the out- standing role portrayed! by the outgoing seniors. The squad will miss such notables as Lester Sammann, Arnold Heath, Gene Bell, and Don Masturzo, who have helped much to make the track squad County Champsv for the past four years.

Some of the B's who made good names for themselves were Harold Beck and Mike Sellers, a pair of dash men. Jerry Serros, a bright prospect from the Freshman class, showed up so Well in the distances he was moved to the A 880, and should help bolster the Yellowjacket attack next year. This year, as never before, more time was spent to improve the class C squad. Not expected to make star performers in their first year of track, a few C's showed that with training and coaching they may some day occupy first place positions for the OUHS track squad.

Baseball With nine returning lettermen, and gym classes full of expectant baseball players, Coach Burt Killingsworth had something of a time picking his team this year. It was easy to notice, however, how all the younger fellows gave the older boys a hard time when it came to holding positions. These young fellows, although inexperienced, showed spirit and ability when the Oxnard team was in a tight squeeze. This was Oxnard's third year of base- ball since the war and although the spirit of the school has never been what it might be towards the sport, the attitude this year Was much better than in the past. In closing the season and the school year Oxnard bids good luck and farewell to the senior baseball players and hopes they will carry on with the true sports- manship they have learned through their experience on the Oxnard Yellowjacket baseball team.

The G.A.A.'s fun-filled year was headed by officers Jean Daily, presi- dentg Joyce Masturzo, vice-presidentg and Dorothy Wennerholm, secretary- treasurer. The club advisor for the past year was Miss Elizabeth Stover. The play-day, held at OUHS this year. was all-county. More than a hundred girls enjoyed themselves playing tennis, volleyball, and table tennis. The rules for G.A.A. membership are simple. Girls must try out for at least one team and purchase a G.A.A. card. The desire of the G.A.A. is to stimulate an active interest in girls' sports, to promote good health, and to provide good health and recreation for ath- letic girls. Girls Sports The year started in girls' sports as usual with volley ball. After volley ball came two months of speedball, then basketball, with baseball ending the year. ' This year the girls enjoyed a play-day here at Oxnard sponsored by the G.A.A.g they also were invited to Ventura to compete in speedball. In bas- ketball a group of girls was picked to play Santa Barbara and they came back with a blue ribbon. The lettermen were invited to a dance given at Fillmore, March 19, 1948. The year proved to be an enjoyable one for all. VOLLEYBALL: 413 R. Ranum J. Daily, B. Daily, D. Scott, D Wennerholm, D. Cota. C23 M. E. Seaman, B. Wilkins. C Seaman, R. Prescott. BASKETBALL: KD D.

The Boosters Club With the forming of the Boosters Club last fall, an organization comprised of prominent local citizens and business- men, OXnard's support of its high school became more evident than ever before. Under the leadership of Al Rodaway and Curly Rathjen they chartered a train for the football squad and OUHS students, to take them to the S.an Luis Obispo game in October. They gave awards at the annual football banquet to the most improved players of the year in both the line and backfield. About the middle of the year it Was announced by the club that they would give trophies to the high school man and Woman of the year. The awards were based on such traits as personality, sports ability, and scholastic ability.
