Westwood High School - Chipmunk Yearbook (Westwood, CA)

Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1948 volume:

Jke 1948 CHIPMUNK VOLUME XXXIII Editor—MARY LOU CAUGHMAN Technical Editor—FRANKIE ROPER fyoAeutosid Associated with Westwood, and other lumber- ing towns, is the myth of Paul Bunyan, the hero of all lumber oamps. We think of him, not only as a myth, but as a real person who founded our great lumber mills. Because of his close relationship with West- wood, we are using Paul Bunyan as our theme for Volume XXXIII of the Chipmunk, portraying him in his different phases of life as every American sees him. dedication Several years have passed since Mrs. Huggins came to teach at Westwood High, and so the Annual Staff has found it appropriate to dedicate our 1948 edition of the Chipmunk to Mrs. J. D. Huggins. Be- cause of your proficiency as a teacher, because of your equality toward all, because of your sincere interest in this school, and because you are liked by young and old, we dedicate this annual to you, Mrs. Huggins, our friend and teacher. PnincAfuaJJi MeAAcuje This has been a good year—good because of the close cooperation between you students and your teachers, and because everyone has had a part in the success of the school You have felt free to express your idecs, and you have worked to make our school a better place in which to leam. In the sharing of our joys and our disappointments we have all developed a better understanding and deeper appreciation for each other. Of course, as in any society, there have been a few who have found it difficult to conform to the rules, but with your patience and under your leader- ship, they have tended to become better citizens be- cause of their association with you. To those of you who are graduating or may not return to Westwood High, we wish health, happiness and success in life. To those who will be returning next fall: have fun, play hard, work well and come back with renewed health, vigor and ambitions. —I. W. Bratton. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION I AdminiA icUian SECTION II GLomm SECTION III ActuutieA SECTION IV Spxviti —s- When and where did this mythical hero get his start? Paul Bunyan is known by his mighty works; his antecedents and personal history are lost in doubt. You can prove that Paul logged off North Dakota and grubbed the stumps, not only by the fact that there are no traces of pine forests in that state, but by the testimony of old timers who saw it done. On the other hand, Paul's parentage and birth date are unknown; he jes' growed. Nobody cared to know his origin until the pro- fessors got after him. As long as he stayed around the camps his previous history was treated with the customary consideration and he was asked no ques- tions, but when he broke into college it was all off. Then he had to have ancestors, a birthday and all sorts of vital statistics. Now Paul is a regular myth and students of folklore make scientific research of 'The Paul Bunyan Legend.' —Paul Buyan and His Big Blue Ox, By W. B. Laughead. SECTION I AdmuuAbuUion MRS.

Johnny Fleming and Horace Smith have graduated from Life to the Highest Institution of Learning. Then passing has left an emptiness in the lives of those who were privileged to know them. HORACE SMITH, JR. StudesU QoJLtf OjfficeSiA BOB MACDONALD DON WILLIAMS LOUIS BOSETTI Having been exceedingly capable in the fulfilment of their offices, our Student Body Officers deserve much credit. This year, Bob MacDonald asked, Are there any announcements? Don Williams led the flag salute and headed the assembly schedule, Louis Bosetti kept the money, Jeanne Craig and Eleanor Soli rooted out our school spirit, and Donna Lou Sievers kept the secretary's notes. In March, the officers attended the Student Leaders' Conference at Chico. Others who also deserve praise are: Business Manager Wayne Bums; Publicity Manager Bradford Sharp, and Rueben Godinez as Athletic Manager.

Special meetings may be called in an emergency. —15— “When Paul Bunyan invented logging he had to invent all the tools and figure out all his own methods. There were no precedents. At the start his outfit consisted of Babe and his big ax. No two logging jobs can be handled exactly the same way so Paul adapted his operations to local conditions. In the mountains he used Babe to pull the kinks out of the crooked logging roads; on the Big Onion he began the system of hauling a section of land at a time to the landings and in North Dakota he used the Seven Axmen. The Grindstone was invented by Paul the win- ter he logged off North Dakota. Before that Paul's axmen had to sharpen their axes by rolling rocks down hill and running along side of them. All of Paul's inventions were successful ex- cept when he decided to run three ten-hour shifts a day and installed the Aurora Borealis. After a number of trials the plan was abandoned because the lights were not dependable. —Paul Bunyan and His Big Blue Ox By W. B. Laughead. SECTION II GlaAAeA, —16— Sesuosi ClaU cJlidtosuf, Graduation Day. This is the day which is eagerly, yet reluctantly awaited by graduating seniors. It seems only yesterday that we entered Westwood High's portals as lowly Frosh. Many memories, some good, and some bad, can now be recalled as we march down the aisle on graduation night. We leave behind us such events as the Prom, the Junior-Senior Picnic, our Junior Stardust dance, our Sophomore Xmas Ball, and all the parties which go to make up the highlights of every Senior's high school days. We also leave to Westwood High, the traditions which have been handed down from year to year. May the Seniors forever flaunt their powerl —18— Sesuosi Stcuu cuiii Most popular boy, Bob MacDonald.

Committee .........................Carlo Smythe Advisor ---------------------- Mr. Sullivan —36— Paul got Benny for nothing from a farmer near Bangor, Maine. There was not enough milk for the little fellow, so he had to be weaned when three days old. Because he was so much younger than Babe and was brought to camp when a small calf, Benny was called the Liitle Blue Ox. although he was quite a chunk of an animal. The calf was undernourished and only weighed two tons when Paul got him. Paul drove from Bangor out to his headquarters near Devil's Lake, North Dakota, that night and led Benny behind lhe sleigh. Western air agreed with the calf, and every time Paul looked back at him, he was two feet taller. Benny was very notional and would never pull a load unless there was snow on the ground, so after the spring thaws, they had to whitewash the logging roads to fool him. —Paul Bunyan and His Big Blue Ox By W.

Qualifications for entering are based on grade point values. An A is valued at three points and a B at one point, with no value for lower grades. A student must have ten points to be eligible for membership. Points may also be earned by extra curricular activities. Plans were made to attend regional and sectional conferences. The C. S. F. also held food sales to raise funds for the treasury. Plans were made to have a Junior High C. S. F. in order to give those students eligible recognition for their outstanding work. Membership in the C. S. F. was made retroactive, and all eligible seniors were given their life pins. JbnamcUicA The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn was the first play given by the Dra- matics Class. Next came Grapes for Dinner, which was a short play given for the assembly. A monologue was presented by Dorothy Goins for the en- joyment of the students in an assembly. One Mad Night in May was given in May, and the play was very well received by the audience. Students who are in dramatics learn all about the stage, how to control their voices, and the art of make-up. Under the direction of their advisor, Miss J. Camp, these students have improved their talent considerably. Back row: H. Smith, I. Londagin, B. Kannier, I. Londagin. J. Doering, D. Barnes, A. Collier. Middle row: Miss J. Camp, D. Myers. B.

Inspired by his success with Bees and Mosquitoes, Paul had developed a breed of ants that stand six feet tall and weigh 200 pounds. To overcome their habit of hibernating all win- ter, Paul supplied the ants with Mackinaws made with three pairs of sleeves for legs. They ate noth- ing but Copenhagen Snuff. The ants (or uncles as they prefer to be called) can run to the Westwood shops with a damaged locomotive quicker than the wrecking crew can come out. —Paul Bunyan and His Big Blue Ox By W. B. Laughead SECTION IV —56— QootLall 'YJ ’leam WESTWOOD 20—ALTURAS 6—Sept. 27, 1947 To the discomfort of the Modoc Indians from Alturas, our Lumberjacks opened the 1947 sea- son with a classy attack. RESUME: Westwood scored twice in the first period (MacDonald toting), and a Camacho con- version produced a 13-0 half-time surplus. In the third period, Indians scored, 13-6. Tony Lucero scooted left end for the final tally and a 20-6 victory. WESTWOOD 12—ALUMNI 0—Oct. 3, 1947 Our varsity eleven welcomed back the old grads for the annual alumni clash; there's nothing like being in condition, eh alumni? RESUME: Two blocked kicks complete the story. One kick was blocked by Visinoni, and he ran the ball over. In the second half. Cloud blocked another and Sanders sneaked to the goal-d fields. WESTWOOD 6—RED BLUFF 13—Oct. 10. 1947 Lumberjack rooters at Red Bluff saw the Red Bluff Spartans pound away at the West- wood ends to gain a 13-6 decision. A West- wood pass play scored the first touchdown (Camacho to Villalovas) of the game, but the fateful second half, which is usually a West- wood dominated period, yielded to a swift Red Bluff backfield. RESUME: K. C. Camacho tossed a smooth pass to Villalovas in the end zone for a half- time 6-0 lead. Spartan's Cotton ran forty yards for the Spartan's first seven points. The anti- quated Statue of Liberty was the completion for a 13-7 Lumberjack disaster. WESTWOOD 12—OROVILLE 6—Oct. 18, 1947 Westwood fans saw a machine-like team drop the defending Big Six Champions, Oro- ville, in a spectacular game featuring a well balanced aerial and ground offensive. The all around play of the line and backfield put on an •exhibition long to be remembered as the best game played on Maxey Field in recent years. RESUME: Westwood's star end, Ed Krueger never shone more brightly than on this day. Camacho to Krueger were the words on everyone's lips, and the combination worked like a charm to defeat the Tigers. Villalovas caught the first touchdown pass and another end run accounted for twelve points. Our line, encouraged by the vicious play of Cravens, was at its season's best. MacDonald's quarter- backing was above reproach. WESTWOOD 7—REDDING 20—Oct. 26, 1947 The defiant Wolves from Shasta High knew that they must stop Westwood's early season drive if they were to succeed in their quest for the Big Six Championship. On the kickoff, Eddie Krueger was knocked out for the rest of the season, and the rest of the game was a series of misfortune. RESUME: Wolves scored twice in the first half and led 14-0 at half-time. A Lumberjack pass scored the Westwood tally, and the Wolves added another to complete a dismal Saturday afternoon. WESTWOOD 14—CHICO 27—Oct. 31, 1947 A bunch of downtrodden Chico Panthers pulled themselves out of hUcemation to score their season's first victory and score their sea- son's first touchdown. Dozens of Lumberjack rooters wondered why they had to pick us for all this sudden recuperation. At one point in the second half, when the score was 20-14, Lumber- jack fans were tearing out their hair because Westwood was on the brink of another T. D. which would have tied the score or won the game, but the Panthers took the ball and added their final points. All in all—exciting. RESUME: Chico held a 13-0 half-time ad- vantage, and they added 14 more points in the second half. Westwood T. D.'s were in the third and fourth quarters, through the efforts of Camacho and Lucero, who ran over for scores. Lucerc intercepted a pass and ran sixty yards for pay dirt. WESTWOOD 0—SUSANVILLE 34— November 7, 1947 Ho hum! That was a day which Lumber- jacks must try to forget. The way Lassen was playing, they could have beaten Michigan in the Rose Bowl, and it was certainly not a day for the Lumberjacks to play football. Westwood hopefully turned to basketball season for relief. RESUME: A series of Lassen touchdowns around, through and over the line and back- field of Westwood was the tale. Back row: D. Tipton.

December 16, 1947. On this clear night, the Lumberjacks pasted a terrific defeat on Quincy, 52-35. January 7, 1948. This time it was the In- -dians who were singed, scalped in Westwood, it was 52-17.

Sob! Oroville dumped the Lumberjack five again, 49-26. It may as well have been a practice game. February 21, 1948. The Spartans from Red Bluff tarred and feathered our A's, 35-20, in the enemy's own town. February 27, 1948. Lassen got hot and spurted flames on Westwood, 35-25, to com- plete the regular season. February 28, 1948 To the remorse of the student body and the joy of the faculty, the Tired Old Men turned the tables on the A's 51-49, in an overtime game. Left to right: Back row: J. Sanders. R.

The Lumberjack B squad wound up in fourth place in the Big Six standings, and Coach Richard Scarlett's boys raked ten wins and seven losses off the hot coals. December 16, 1948, the B's hit the court and then danced around the Quincy Trojan, win- ning, 30-18. January 7, 1948.

Basketball The C team this year, guided by Coach Menke, showed sportsmanship, but they only managed to pull one victory off the courts. They had stiff op- position, and this was their record: Nov. 20, 1948—Susanville 26; Westwood 22 Dec. 4. 1948—Susanville 32; Westwood 16 Dec. 16, 1948—Greenville 28; Westwood 25 Portola Tournament— Loyalton 21 ...............

They couldn't quite beat Susanville on both outings, but the proud D's did bring one of the two victories home to Westwood. Greenville was a two time victim of the vicious assault of the miniature Lum- berjacks. RESULTS Susanville 20 Susanville 23 Greenville 20 —62- West wood 15 Westwood 34 Westwood 25 HaieJuulL Instead of taking the field against Big Six teams, Westwood joined the Lassen-Plumas Baseball League in which they played a tough schedule.

A few matches were scheduled with various schools by Coach Hoffman, but the interest wasn't intense. Lowell Haueter, Lee Sing, and Wayne Bums were a few who were sent to participate in matches and the Chico State Tennis Tournament. G-fc GcuketlaU Mr. Randall's C-B team took to the floor against Greenville and Susanville, and the C-B's came out victoriously in three out of four games.

Although losing some of their best cindermen through the medium of graduation last year, Westwood's track team participated in many of the Northern California and Big Six meets with success. On April 30, 1948, Susan ville and Westwood met on the tracks, and on May 8, 1948, Westwood competed against the other members of the Big Six. The Red and Black showed its strength in the long distances, and in the dashes. Gt id, GotuU uf, The Cross Country team made a strong showing in Susan ville by placing three firsts in the A. B. and C divisions, but they lacked the necessary second and third places to win the meet. Richard Smythe won for the C's, Jerry Emer- son for the B's, and Ref Villalovas for the A's. The score of the meet in points was Lassen, 35, Westwood, 28. Back row: Mr. D. Wittry, coach; C. Melanin, J. Em- erson, R. Villalovas. D. Bol- linger, L. Guzman, F. Stop- pel. Front row: R.

History disagrees as to when, where, and how Paul first acquired this bovine locomotive, but his subsequent record is re- liably established. Babe could pull anything that had two ends to it. Babe was seven axhandles wide between the eyes according to some authorities; others equally dependable say forty-two axhandles and a plug of tobacco. Seven of Paul's axhandles were equal to a little more than forty-two of the ordinary kind. —Paul Bunyan and His Big Blue Ox By W. B.

A yearning grows down deep inside, And this sad lale I must confide; It's been an hour now, 'tis true, Since she drank a cup of coffee brew. Between her sips from the gurgling pot, She's really managed to do a lot. The papers finished and Oh! what themes— Corrected with care on old CAFFEINE! This poem is respectfully dedicated to Miss Josephine Camp. The author wishes to remain anonymous. A r i lp oAe Uatio+i To those who have helped us compile this '48 edition of the Chipmunk, the Annual Staff extends its sincere appreciation. Our special thanks go to Mr. W. Laughead, whose drawings and stories of Paul Bunyan appear in this annual. Our gratitude also goes to Mr. Scarlett whose art work is evident in the drawings of Paul Bunyan; Mr. Coffee and Roy Avery, Jr. for photography; Mr. Roy Avery for printing, ad- vice and photography work; the teachers who be- came involved because of picture taking; Mr. and Mrs. Robert Maggiora who contributed many hours of valuable time to advise and direct the work of the Annual Staff; our local business men and women whose advertisements made it possible for this book to be published; Mrs. Bratton who let us use the showcase for displays; and all others who contrib- uted in making this annual a success. —88—
