Nelson PUBLISHER Mr. Robert D. Moore WHAT BERKELEY HALL MEANS TO M by Kent Bilsborrow Berkeley Hall is the rock, the basis, the foundation, of many blessings. It develops a strong foundation for one's spiritual, mental, and sportsmanlike qualities. When solving a problem in mathematics, be it the most elementary or the most intricate, if the first step is not correctly done, the whole problem will be wrong. As with the problem in mathematics, if a young pupil does not start out with a firm and correct understanding of fundamentals, further advancement will be unsatisfactory. Berkeley Hall has certainly given me the rock on which to build. First, Berkeley Hall emphasizes the use of Christian Science in connection with his school work. When obstacles appear, Christian Science is used. Togeth- er with patience on the teacher's part, and with a sincere desire to learn on the part of the pupil, the obstacles are always overcome. In a hit-or-miss method, the pupil either understands new work or he misses it completely. Such an error can cause much trouble later. At Berkeley Hall, the teachers get to know the individual needs, initiative, potential, and work habits of each pupil. The teacher becomes more than a mechanical element with a name. He becomes a support and a helping hand. In Berkeley Hall the pupil receives individual guidance if the subject matter is not thoroughly understood This is very important because the way to improve the group is through the improvement of the individual. Because each day develops one's schooling, each day must start off on the right foot. The morning sharingvith its article from the Sentinel or one of the other periodicals of Christian Science Publishing Society is the thing that makes me feel that this is truly Hthe day the Lord hath made,n and that all the good I can express, let me express it this day, for I will never live one like it again. Another aspect of the development of a firm foundation is the sports. Berkeley Hall's athletic program makes each of us a better player. But, more important to me, it helps develop the fine qualities of good sportsmanship, helpfulness, encouragement, and control of one's temper. I will never forget one experience along that line. During a close basket- ball game, I was getting a bit short on temper at myself and others. Mr. Nelson, our coach at the time, cured the whole situation with the eye-opening words: Gracious spirit. . . Along with theispecial things,Berkeley Hall has other advantages that make school a joy. From the trip to the Arden Dairy in first grade, the observatory, and the Chevrolet assembly plant in Junior High, and the ever-popular Ninth Grade UDitch Dayn to the Intermediate's Halloween party, and the Junior High lilll fortnightlies are a few of them. And in the Ninth Grade, especially, there are special activities such as the Shield, Debate, Thanksgiving Service, Annual, Class Day, and finally Graduation. This is my tenth and final year at Berkeley Hall. I also feel it has been the most rewarding. This is due to the understanding and patience that Mrs. O'Connor exemplifies. When any student is willing to try, she is willing to give all the help she can. Finally, Mr. Nelson deserves a thank you. For without him, Berkeley Hall would not be what it is today, a rock, a foundation on which to build a life- time. CLASS HISTORY - 1964 by Kirk Honeycutt and Richard Larson In today's ever-changing world the student finds that his scholastic achieve- ments are of paramount importance. All of us in the class of '64 have been working towards our respective goals in life, but at the same time each indi- vidual has been aiding and supporting his classmates to assure the highest academic standards for our class. Much the same can be said for the training program of our pioneers in outer space--the astronauts. Because of this we would like to give our class's history in the form of a groupof astronauts' training program. Three and Four-Year-Old Nursery and Kindergarten were preliminary training in preparation for more advanced aerodynamical study. In Junior Nursery co- instructresses Mrs. Owen and Miss Giles found three hale and hearty trainees-- Bob Moore, Guy Veloz, and Mary Ann Baker. Our field of educational endeavor included finger-painting, sculpturing in clay, and easel painting--although more paint ended up on the young artists than on the canvas. In Senior Nursery we were joined by five more presidentially-appointed train ees--Debbie Boughn, Kirk Honeycutt, Denise Day, Lindsey Nicholl, and Paul Purtle. Our happy year was spiced with many birthday parties, records provided by NASA depicting the highest atmospheric work of Jack and his Beanstalk, share days, and parading through Cape Berkeley Hall in our space suit on Halloween. Moving in to Kindergarten we found Larry Charlston, Paul Appleby, Richard Larson, Dorothy Roelse, Christine Sansone, Charlotte Pahlavi, Kent Bilsborrow, and Laurie Thomas waiting to Mrs. Scallon and Mrs. Wilson slides, merry-gozrounds, and tested in a small brick pool learning to write our names, join the fun. Physical conditioning directors introduced an abstacle course consisting of jungle gyms. Our Water survival equipment was On occasion we also swam. Other features were construction work with blocks, tricycle riding picture slides, and our own play store. All too soon this exciting phase of our program came to a close and we moved on to bigger and better things. We now embarked upon Project Primary. This is a very pivotal part of our ever-widening program. During the next three years we would establish a basis for future study. When we began Phase I we met Mrs. Swanson and some new friends named addition, subtraction, reading, spelling, and achievement tests. These Hfriendsu were to come back later to haunt us. Participation in the Sugar Plum program at Christmas was one of the high points of the year. For our intensive research into the exploits and scientific compilation of the immortal astronomical team of Dick and Jane, we were rewarded with a field trip to the Arden Farms Dairy. Phase II brought advanced concepts in writing and reading. Under Mrs. Iwert's firm, but loving, hand we accomplished our first exploratory mission into outer space. With the aid of an imaginary rocket trip to the moon pinned around the walls, we learned our multiplication and division tables. This was the first year that the new auditorium, located in the training center, was in operation. We enjoyed this added luxury immensely. In the third and final Phase of Projectx Primary with new astronaut Julie Stevens we came across an extracurricular activity referred to by Mrs. Upton as homework. And finally we could choose our own lunch--much to the mortifica- tion of our parents and their pocketbooks. In conjunction with social studies we took up the study of the American Indians. To the boys' delight a new base- ball team moved to Los Angeles--the Dodgers. Near the close of the year we presented Longfellow's HHiawathan to the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Grades. By some mistake we had the nsun pulling away from the shore as our canoe sank slowly in the West.H We now entered Project Intermediate and the long-anticipated HBig Campus.H Joining us in our new adventures in Phase IV were Mark Bickerton and David Greenwalt, who had been training at other air bases. Instructress Mrs. Hill taught us the proper forms of good penmanship so that we would write legible reports after our orbital flights. As a diversion from the race for space, we held a contest to see who could read and report on the most books. For the entertainment program we enjoyed a Halloween Party, a Play Day, and singing the HLord's Prayern at Graduation. In Phase V three more prospective astronauts--John Steelesmith, Linda Vogel, and Cameron Young--were greeted by Mrs. Eardley. Our studies were becoming more varied. In Mrs. Richard's art class we made grotesque Halloween masks. For music Mrs. Purtle taught us the art C?D of playing the ukulele. Under Mr. Richard's supervision the boys delved into science and woodwork. American history was emphasized by Mrs. Eardley and towards the end of the year we turned in vocational notebooks. We were now ready for the last portion of Project Intermediate. For Phase VI we took to the Sixth Grade tree house to test our high altitude apparatus. Guy Veloz was reassigned to another air base for a year of special training. Susan DeWindt, Brad Scott, and Carolyn Carnesciali were our new colleagues and Mrs. Henry was our new commanding officer. She stressed higher mathematics such as the division and multiplication of decimals and fractions. Country notebooks for social studies and world globes done in art gave us a background in geography in the event of a forced landing on foreign soil. Mrs. Baker gave the class dancing lessons in preparation for the long-awaited Sixth Grade Invitational. Near the close of this educational year we had the privilege of attending a number of Junior High Assemblies. We now headed for our final project. Phase VII of Project Junior High found Also, Guy rejoined us this year. However like his predecessor John Glenn had left a refresher course in penmanship because Mrs. Warne and Dale Crow awaiting us. we discovered that Cameron Young, us for a political career. We took our orbital reports were becoming illegible again. Social studies was split between American history and world geography. English, arithmetic, science, and art comprised the remainder of our program. Mrs. Dlouhy presented us with a brand new topic--literature. Over the next three years we would be delving into the world of Poe, Irving, Shakespeare, and Homer. This year our flowering social life came into full bloom with fortnightlies, the most outstanding of which are the two formals and the box social, the boys' best bargain. The high point of the year came when, in taking over for a few days, Mrs. 0'Connor, the noted aerodynamical scientist, gave us a demonstration of the proper technique of flying paper gliders. The challenge of hard work and long homework confronted us in Phase VIII. Through Mrs. Hall's strict leadership, we achieved a record twenty-six blue cards twice and earned a field trip to the Van Nuys Chevrolet Plant. Mrs. Hall HLearnedH us excellent English and arithmetic by constant drilling of rules. Learning these necessary rules sometimes meant staying in during athletics. Art, science, and music provided a wonderful program. We discovered our artistic girls had great ingenuity in decorating the auditorium for dances We wonder if Mrs. Richards could have given them any ideas? For science the instructor for our interplanetary expedition, Mr. Richards, took the entire class to the Griffith Park Observatory. Caroling in Beverly Hills and singing in a special assembly under Mrs. Purtle's direction was the highlight of the Christmas Season. A new teacher at the Cape, Mr. Dishian, gave us our first introduction to the French language. Our study of the Constitution and how it operates today was the basis for beautiful notebooks which were completed at the year's end. We made it! Those small astronauts who began training so many years ago are now HKings of the Campus.H As the leading class of Cape Berkeley Hall in Phase IX, Mrs. O'Connor welcomed us with algebra books and Hlittle sheets of papern for surprise tests. After a long and unsuccessful campaign in the political arena, Cameron Young once again joined our class in training. The delightful Mrs. O kept our last year rolling along with her witty sayings and keen sense of humor. As well as the aforementioned algebra, English, history, and literature were also stressed. We now had a full fifty minute period of the ever-popular Frendh with Mr. Dishian. Most of the boys took drafting from Mr. McGee and Mrs. Richards had the girls in stitches in sewing. Ditch Day, Class Day, the Fashion Show, the Shield Dance, and the Thanksgiving Service added extra interest to this special year. Everyone pitched in and wrote sparkling articles for the Ninth Grade published annual I To rival the girls fashion show, a debate was staged between six of the boys on the then recently signed nuclear test ban treaty. As the last phase of our intensive training program comes to a close we have many happy memories to look back upon. We are nor prepared to start the countdown for our blastoff towards new and uncharted academic adventures. But certainly not to be forgotten are the many vivid recollections we have of our Cape Berkeley Hall experience. SANDBOX SCHOLARS by Julie Stevens and David Greenwalt nPoliteness is to do and say The kindest thing in the kindest way. This is the theme of the Nu where the young children are rsery, taught to show courtesy, obedience, generos- ity, and love toward one another. They learn that giving is m precious than receiving, by b a gift for the glass on their day. This quality is further ore uying birth- develop ed by the bringing of toys to share every morning. These adorable children are under the expert and loving care of Mrs. Owen and Mis: Giles. There is also a new member on the Nursery teaching staff, Mrs. Crandell, who graduated from Berkeley Hall in l95O and whose children are now enrolled in Berkeley Hall. These three set a rapid pace keep up with the tight the busy bees of the in order to schedule of Nursery: 8:15 - 8:20 Gate opens 8:20 - 8:55 Play on porch 8:55 - 9:15 Music 9:15 - 9:25 Assembly 9:25 - 9:UO Juice, toileting 9:MO - lO:3O Free play, constructive art lO:3O-lO:55 Clean-up, books, stories lO:55-ll:l5 Rest on cots with music ll:l5-ll:H5 Lunch ll:M5- 2:30 Nap 2:30 - 2:M5 Put on shoes, comb hair 2:45 - 2:55 Milk and crackers 2:55 - 3:15 Free play 3:15 Bell rings 3:20 Listen to stories while waiting for rides For art the children are given the three basic colors from which they make a rainbow of new colors. They take advantage of nature by singing songs to suit the weather. There are many extra activities to be enjoyed including the making of cranberry relish at Christmas and Easter Baskets at Easter. Also there is an unrehearsed singing program per formed for the Mothers' Club, where the children look at pictures to tell them each song. There are also many things to be learned, such as the tieing of one's shoes. The most important of all is the learning of spiritual Truthsfrom quotations from The Bible, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, and other of Mrs. Eddy's works. Although these children are only three to four years of age, the Nursery has given them the ability and the will to help others and live harmoniously with them. These qualities will stay with them all through their lives and they will become better Christian Scientists for lt. l THE UECONU GKAUL by Paul Appleby and Carolyn Carnesciali The Second Grade, under the expert guidance of their helmsman, Mrs. Iwert, is steering its ship toward wider and grander horizons. Because the Carden system is now used, the pupils don't have as much free time allotted to them This consists of arithmetic, spelling, and other basic subjects. Experiments and studies were conducted in such interesting subjects as: l. The making of maple sugar. 2. The migration of birds. 3. A special study of shells Cin which every member of the class parti- cipates by bringing a shellL M. A study of the Monarch butterfly Aside from these interesting studies, the class has a spelling bee every Thursday. If this sounds like painstaking work to you, you will find comfort in the fact that the more advanced stu- dents oan use the new encyclopedias as a form of pleasure. KINGS OF THE KINDERGARTEN by Paul Purtle After a taste of Mrs. nO'sH crack of the whip, I guess kindergarten wasn't so bad. After all, those play periods would have eliminated any time for algebra tests, and those wonderful naps would have taken care of those gruesome history tests. But now, back to reality. Around 8:15 a.m. the pupils start arriving, to be greeted by Mrs. Scallan and Miss Lee. By 8:40 they are ready to start the day, beginning with HThe Daily Prayer.H Then, off to free play, frolicking in the sandpile, on the swings, flying beautifully painted paper planes and racing around the track at a hazardous one and a half miles per hour. Phew! Play period over. It's time to retreat to the classroom for the work period. This time consists of written dictation of numbers and letters. Next comes artistry, and a few bars of songs, and dancing, and the pounding of the big brass drum, taught by Mrs. Purtle. Well! Just five minutes until lunch. Can they wait that long? That tantaliz- ing aroma from the kitchen perks up everyone. Finally! First the dessert, then the main course. HOh, boy! Popsi- cles today. I get a green one! No, I do! Well, split it and make upln All this frustration needs a little time to simmer down, and the nap hour is upon us, to be followed by story time, where old time favorites are read, and some records of stories are played. This is the life! Now back to playtime frolics until 3:15 where each pupil moans a weak Hgood-nightn to Mrs. Scallan and Miss Lee as they start their trip home. HBut, we'll get to come back tomorrow, so rejoice and be merryln FIRST FOR TOIL by Debbie Boughn and Mark Bickerton From the time a First Grader reaches Berkeley Hall till the end of his school day, his life is full of activities. You'll be surprised how things have changed since the time we were enrolled in that marvelous institution. The main objective of the First Grade is to learn basic reading, writing, and arithmetic skills. Under the supervision of their teacher, Mrs. Swan, they put on a superb show in the Mothers' Club. While trying to find their mothers in the audience, the children attempted to pick out the subject and verb of each sentence written on the blackboard. Some of their other activities include bird watching, learning time, and making animal and leaf Scrapbooks Another new addition to the First Grade agenda is report cards. They like receiving them now, but they will learn to dread them. The only thing the First Grade has left to learn is that naps are a luxury. by Kent Bilsborrow uAll right now, I don't want to have to ring my little gold bell. You know what that means. What's that? I am not an 'old grouch'!H Question: Does Mrs. McGee enjoy her Fifth Grade class? Answer: Yes. when she gets disturbed she simply rings her little gold bell and everyone gets a check which goes against his citizenship grade for the week! An old grouch? Well, not really. Mrs. McGee graduated from U.S.C., although for some reason she wouldn't tell us which class. She had six years of experience in public school where she taught grades from one to eight. This is her fourth year at Berkeley HalL her third in the Fifth Grade. She enjoys teaching her present class because they work very well. They have very interesting new social studies textbooks. Using these, they have made on the wall a time line, giving a clear idea of relative dates. Another novelty is the arithmetic chart. when a pupil receives a perfect arithme- tic paper, he fills in a square by his name. Under the fine guidance of Mrs. McGee, the Fifth Grade is well on its way to building a strong foundation for future years. MRS. CRANDELL by Charlotte Pahlavi and Guy Veloz Mrs. Crandell, the new Junior Nursery teacher, has found her new teaching experience most satisfying and profitable. As a student at the University of Southern California, she took courses in general teaching. Mrs. Crandell, a former graduate of Berkeley Hall, finds her work most enjoy- able and interesting. This is due to the fact that she is teaching a great numbe of her classmates' children. Having young children of her own, Mrs. Crandell has had experience with little children and is fascinated by their cute actions. We are hopeful that Mrs. Crandell will find her stay here as important to her she is to Berkeley Hall. FIFTH GRADE THE FOURTH GRADE by Charlotte Pahlavi The Fourth Grade has had a truly wonderful year. The children have actually had fun mastering the 3 R's. Contests are held daily in which the girls are winners in arithmetic and the boys in spelling. This year the Fourth Grade mastered one hundred multiplication facts in four minutes and sixty division facts in two and one half minutes. They have an Extra Credit List for spelling which includes words from any of their subjects. The children color a red square for every lOOZ and a blue square for missing just one word Social Studies has proved to be quite exciting. Making an Indian notebook in class was their the trip to the light. You see, treat rewarding cellent conduct. first experience.

They have complete charge of the movies, even in returning them to the office. The study and has been one of use of the dictionary their growing experi- ences. The dictionary purchased is an advanced one, and can be used through their remaining years at Berkeley Hall. They spend time every day look- ing up the difficult spelling words. Then they used them in sentences. They read parts of various books and substituted words by finding them in the dictionary. Fourth Graders have truly spent a most fruitful year. AN ACTIVE GRADE by Kirk Honeycutt From what I saw in the Sixth Grade room, I can attest that the Sixth Grade is truly an exciting year.When we say it has high standards, we mean it literally. Their room is a tree house, located atop the Intermediate Building, which, I thought, makes for fine bird study and inattention to arithmetic class. But, according to control tower operator, Mrs. Henry, the pupils have mastered the difficult multiplication and division of frac- tions and decimals. One of the most important duties of this class occurs at the beginning of the school year. It is then that the class elects two boys for the daily job of raising and lowering the flag. David Hocker and Michael Dow, the boys chosen for this big chore, will re- ceive a letter commending their fine efforts, at Graduation. Many new and wonderful things were introduced to them this year. Dancing lessons were given by Mrs. Baker in preparation for the Sixth Grade Invi- tational Dance. The class also attend- ed the Thanksgiving Service, some Junior High assemblies, Class Day, and the Ninth Grade Fashion Show. In art, masks for Halloween and globes of the world, together with painting, comprise Mrs. Richards' balanced program. A new textbook and workbook in social studies, had Mrs. Henry quite enthused. Outstanding maps, colored pictures, and fascinating time lines make learning about our world much easier. A new addition to the curriculum last year was a fifteen minute French period each morning, and this year, a SRA reading course with which they have had fine results. In conjunction with their social studies, each member of the Sixth Grade makes a notebook about a nation of his choice. An assembly was given in which each participant told of something out- standing or interesting in his country. At another intermediate assembly, wendy Smith exhibited some slides of Europe taken by her parents. This grade surely knows its geography! I think that, outside of the Ninth Grade, the Sixth Grade has more interest ing activities than any other grade. 1Ure of Mrslwel' +. Bai' we GH w anfed one of ourfavar'H'eS 'robe in +he ann ual. The Na nTh Grade EAGER EINSTEINS by Linda Vogel, Lindsey Nicholl, Denise Day This year's Third Grade is enthusi- astic about learning. To them it is fun because each new thing learned is a new discovery. A day in the life of a Third Grader under Mrs. Bennett's expert guidance ' is opened by a hymn played by the teacher, followed by the prayer and flag salute. There is a daily desk inspection so the desks won't look like some we've seen. The Third Grade is almost entirely under the Carden System. The children are especially eager in arithmetic and science. They also work hard on their geography workbooks, Weekly Readers. The once-a-month art projects are wonderful avenues for imagination and individual creations. One of these projects was making puppet bees,which they combined with a nature study of bees to make an interesting play for the Mothers' Club. The Third Grade has their own library with honored library helpers. They have a new president every week. A rock collection around the room gives a gay appearance. The Third Grade with the help of Mrs. Bennett is developing class of well-rounded students. into a fine Wg doNi' have a good pic-A 1. 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 CLASSIFIED ADS For Sale: A hot temper guaranteed to flare up Mary Ann.

CLASS OFFICERS BY Chris Hooker The Seventh Grade has had many fine A class officers. The offices that can be held are: President, who takes charge of the class meetings, Vice-President, who takes the President's job when he is absent, Secretary, who takes class notes and writes any letters, Treasur- er, who takes care of the class money and'collects fines for messy desks, and Deputy, who runs class errands. The first set of class officers were: President, Jay North, Vice-President, Bunnie Swan, who became President after Jay left, Secretary, Debbie Carnescialig Treasurer, Chris Hockerg and Deputy, Val West. Other Presidents have been: Chris Hocker, Sandy Smith, Gary Hansen, Kathy Kelleher, Bruce Larson,Carey Rose. Secretaries: Dave Spaulding, Patricia Waldman, Sandy Smith, Chris Hocker, Bruce Larson. THE SEVENTH GRADE PICNIC DAY by Torrey Wulff On a day early in June, our class spent a fun-filled day at Sally Find- later's house in Brentwood. In deciding where we would go, the class voted unanimously to accept the Findlater's invitation. We had a wonderful day playing pool, ping-pong, and badminton. ..and then swim ing, too, in their lovely pool. At lunch time, the food we had brought with us for twenty-six hungry students, didn't last very long. After a strenuous day, our class re- turned to Berkeley Hall, having thor- oughly enjoyed the nSeventh Grade Picnic Dayu away from school. THE SEVENTH GRADE MAY ASSEM LY by Bruce Larson The Seventh Grade second semester assembly in May was about the Revolu- tionary War period which the class had studied this semester. It covered all of the important points leading up to the Revolutionary War,inC1uding the famous heroes in the war and their battles for independence. MY SCHOOL BELOVED by Debbie Carnesciali Berkeley Hall, my school beloved! A temple where love shines through, So beautiful is our learning place, Where all we learn is true. Our Principal exemplifies Love with firm direction, He stands for quiet discipline And dignified perfection. Without regard for praise or prize, We do our studies well, Only perfect grades we recognize Where pure thoughts ever dwell. GREAT M N OF AMERICA BY Debbie Carnesciali, Chris Hocker Pam McGee The Seventh Grade first semester assembly on January 20, was one honor- ing great men who have helped build our country. Bruce Larson opened our assembly with hymn number eighty:three from our Christian Science Hymnal and led us in the Daily Prayer. Torrey Wulff led us in the flag salute. The Seventh Grade then sang, HGod Bless America,H announced by Debbie Carnesciali. She also introduced our program and Pam McGee announced the speakers. Our first speaker was who spoke on Scientists Next, Chris Hooker told men. Following them was ciali with Pioneers and Bunnie Swan, and Inventors. us about States Debbie Carnes- Explorers, and Kathy Kelleher's topic was Writers. Pam McGee told us about famous Musicians. Next, Gary Hansen gave us Industrialists Military Heroes were interestingly given by Torrey Wulff. Then Nevada Brooks told us about Educators. Religious Leaders were given by Sandy Smith. We then heard about the recent Americans who have made history, the Space Pioneers,from both Bonnie Bittner and Bruce Larson. The program was concluded with every- one singing the first verse of HAmerica the Beautiful.H FOREIGN FRIENDS by Nevada Brooks The most interesting thing the Seventh Grade did in English this year was to write to pen pals in foreign countries. First, we learned how to write letters in proper form. After our letters reached a certain standard and were approved by Mrs. Evans, we selected pen pals. Some of us wrote to people in Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Germany, Canada, and Malaya. As we received answers to our letters, we brought them to school and read them before the class. Now many of us have regular pen pals in distant countries. From them we learn the customs of their towns and countries. It is pleasing to note that these pen pals are as eager to exchange thoughts with us 8.S we HPS. AN INTERVIEW WITH A NEW by Carey Rose Sally Findlater entered Grade in the Fall of 1963. Before Sally came to Berkeley Hall, she attended three different schools. She says ourschool has many more subjects to learn. Sally especially likes the students and swimming pool. She also likes the Fortnightlies. Sally has been having fun this year and learning many different subjects. STUDENT the Seventh Shop by Val West Three times a week We have lots of fun, For we meet in the shop And the wood work's begun. Mr. McGee is our Shining light. He does every thing But make us a bike. ART by Sandy Smith In the Seventh Grade Art Class we have made many projects with the help of Mrs. Richards. Some were working with colors like the color wheel, and others were with paper like collages and mosaics. Finally, we did the decorations for the Sixth Grade Invi- tational. Our theme was HSurfing and Fun at the Beach. A TRIP TO THE L.A. COUNTY MUSEUM by Bunnie Swan, David Cole, Patricia Waldman, Gary Hansen A few mothers kindly offered to drive the excited Seventh Grade to Exposition Park. The trip to the Los Angeles County Museum was educa- tional and interesting, but the best word for our field trip was Hfunn. With Mrs. Richards as our guide, we saw a contemporary art exhibit which included Expressionism and Impression- ism. The climax of our whole trip was the Mexican Art Exhibit. These paintings gave us an idea of what life was like in those days. Among some of the things we saw were funeral masks of clay dolls, jade and many different Mexican clay or wood, gold figures, gods, and Mexican jewelry. The guides kindly informed us of the background of each article we saw. At noon the disappointing moment came, we had to return to school and leave wonder this ful world of magic. SPORTS by Kathy Kelleher and Debby Carnesciali Every year a new class comes into the Junior High and with it comes the excitement of many things. Among them is the thought of having gym clothes, lockers, and being able to play with the Eighth and Ninth grades. As in the preceding years, Mrs. Jeffries and Miss Letts direct the girls' sports. Through the year we play basketball, volleyball, soccer, and baseball. The boys' director is Mr. McGee. They cover football, basketball, soccer, and baseball over the term. We all swim during the warmer months. I am sure everyone is looking forward to games next year, and wonder ing who wil take the place of Dale Crow and Susan DeWindt as the Captains of the Whites and Blues.

This verse from Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy was submitted by Don Vogel. Every day this verse is demon strated in the Eighth Grade room. We have had six elections. Our presidents have been: Perry Valantin Don Vogel, Todd Culbertson, Gary Krisel, Christine Carlson, and Caryn Citron. Twelve students have had blue cards every grading period this year. They are: Caryn Citron, Perry Valantine, Christine Carlson, Don Vogel, Cindy McMahan, Gary Krisel, Joyce Herman, Martha Sage, Lee Ann McGee, Charlotte Ferrini, and Vicki Killough. Seven- teen out of nineteen students earned blue cards during one grading period. The Eighth Grade has broken all records for perfect attendance this year. By April 21, they had 55 un- challenged consecutive days of perfect attendance at different intervals. THE PAST IN THE PRESENT by Lea McGee There is a great stress on American History in the second year of Junior High. During the first two-thirds of the year the class studies the growth, leaders, and problems solved in the United States from just before the Civil War to the present time. After the study of World War II we were privileged to hear an interest- ing talk from Mr. Citron, who was under General Patton in the war in ei LYRICAL LITERATURE by Cindy McMahan Similes, metaphors, onomatopoeia - these are figures of speech very common in Eighth Grade literature with Mrs. Dlouhy. They have also been used in the three poems we have written this year. Three oral and written book reports have also been completed, and several were in the Book Festival on May l. Our text- book is A World of Events, and we have read such famous stories as HChristmas Carolfu nGreat Stone Face,H and HEvangeline,' throughout the year. ONE MILE JOURNEY THROUGH A MECHANICAL JUNGLE by Caryn Citron As a reward for seventeen hard- earned blue cards, the Eighth Grade went on a field trip in February to the Chevrolet automobile factory in Van Nuys. Thirty-two of us, including the parents who drove and some relatives, had an enjoyable lunch in one of the company cafeterias. We then took a guided tour through the tremendous plant and witnessed the construction of cars on a mass production assembly line. Our guide, who has been working in the plant since it opened in l9M7, told us many interesting facts about the operation of the factory. Before we left, we were given pamphlets about the history of the Chevrolet factory. All-in-all it was a very enjoyable and interesting experience from which we all profited. Europe. From an objective viewpoint he showed the class what it was really like to go through that war. He told how the Americans became closer while they were all working together to win. Mrs. Hall's class studied the Constitution of the United States during the last third of the year and assembled their well-known Constitution notebooks. SHOP IS TOP by Don Vogel Three times a week from 11:30 until 12:15, the Eighth Grade boys meet with Mr. McGee for shop. While we are working on our projects, we usually talk and exchange ideas on our projects. Whenever we try to communicate with each other we have to yell to make ourselves heard over the noise of the electric sanders. When someone shuts off the sanders, the boys who were communicat- ing with their neighbors find them- selves still yelling. This year we have made everything from planters to tables under Mr. McGee's careful supervision. We have also made small boxes with hidden compartments, record cabinets, trivets, tables, and many other things. With such an expert shop instructor as Mr. McGee, the Eighth Grade boys have learned much about wood working this year. LIBRARIES INSPIRE BETTER LITERATURE by Joyce Herman The Eighth Grade had the wonderful privilege of visiting the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library. We went under the supervision of Mrs.Dlouhy who was the guest of Mrs. Angelico. This library, which is privately endowed, contains many treasures including a beau tiful and very large Persian rug, some fine pictures, some very beautiful statues, and hundreds of books. Among them we found the smallest book in the world and one which is, perhaps, the largest book. This experience was as educational as it was enjoyable. FRENCHORAMA by Robin Ricketts HParlez-vous francais?H Well our class does. In French this year our class has mastered quite a bit of the basis of the French language. We have conjugated verbs, learned geograph- ical facts, played games, and sung songs in French. One of our classmates, Perry Valantine, who has visited Switzerland, where French is spoken, knows many phrases in French which helps the whole class. Mr. Dishian, our French teacher, stresses the importance of correct pro- SOCIAL LIFE IN THE CLASSROOM by Christine Carlson Something told us in the beginning of the year that our hard work would mrwwmi Mwwemmt Wwwe rewarded by a surprise party for Thanksgiving, planned by the room mothers, Mrs. Kantor and Mrs. Haupt. Before Christmas vacation we had a planned Christmas party in which everyone participated. Todd Culbertson brought several records and provided us with soft Christmas music. Valentine's day brought a planned Valentine party with Todd's background music. Easter came and nothing was planned. In the afternoon we were surprised by an Easter party, planned and presented by our two room mothers. We are very thankful to our two room mothers who have done so much to make our parties successful. DOUBLE PERFORMANCES by Perry Valantine Two assemblies have been performed by the Eighth Grade this year. Each has been given twice. The first one was a news report in which each member of the class reported on happenings in local, domestic, or world news. This was performed once in October and, after getting up to date, again for the Mothers' Club in March. The other program consisted of each class member reciting something on Christmas from Mary Baker Eddy's book What Christmas Means To Me. This was given at an assembly in December and again at the Christmas Formal. ALL FUN AND NOT WORK by Vicki Killough A wonderful day was spent by the Eighth Grade on May 15. In the morning at 10 o'clock our class took off for Roxbury Park. The whole class played baseball and then had a deli- cious lunch of hamburgers, salad, ice cream, and cake. We then played handball and tennis and other games. We then returned to school where we went swimming from 2:30 to 3:30. nunciation. I know our class has profited from his instruction each in his own way. Nh -I Nr-A Y sa- gy A . sv 'C' guy' -R p -3Qj gi A433 A i ,, Q g3, V .

The class decided to send some money to the CARE fund. We sent many articles to Hong Kong, South Korea, and other such places. In January we-received a letter from Mr. P11 Sun Lee, a director of a home for children whose parents are stricken with leprosy. He stated that a few years before he had received CARE packages from this class. Mr. Lee asked for a contribution in the way of clothes or money. The Eighth Grade started a very successful clothing drive. with the help of Mr. Nelson we sent the clothing to this children's home in South Korea. FROM BEATLES TO SUGAR PLUMS by Martha Sage Our art experience with Mrs. Rich- ards this year has been a helpful and rewarding one. we have made the decora- tions for the dances and the fashion show with the guidance of Mrs. Rich- ards. Among the decorations throughout the year we have produced Sugar Plum scenes for Christmas, haunted houses for Halloween, and of course, the ever lasting Beatles for the Box Social. This study has helped us to know how to enlarge a small picture to life size or larger. The Eighth Grade girls will always be thankful to Mrs. Richards for show- ing us how to appreciate art. A NEW COG IN THE WHEEL by Cameron Young Hwhat time is 1t?H uFive after elevenln HOh, gosh, another twenty-five min- utes to go before drafting class ends. Boy, I've nearly erased halfway to China, sketching that what-cha-call- it in the book. Hey, John, I hear Mr. McGee joined the Aircraft Tool Corporation after he left high school? Hvean, then he joined the Navy.H 'nBoy, this thing about visualizing all the edges and angles of an object and putting it down on paper.H HSame here, then A. J. Bayer Co. re- ceived a new employee for eleven and one-half years. After that, on to the Kimball Elevator Company.H nNow, he's here, Where did he hear about Berkeley Hall, anyway?H HHis wife teaches Fifth Grade and his children go here.H HAll right, clean upilu yells Mr. McGee. That's right, this year Mr. McGee started teaching drafting, woodshop, and sports at Berkeley Hall and he plans to stay. He is grateful right where he is because he loves the three things he teaches, especially woodshop and drafting, because to build some- thing, sketches and plans first must be drawn before a project can be con- structed. Woodcraft was his hobby Know his Jobj and he is happy because he can use what he knows. Drafting can be used in most all phases of business because a sketch will always make things clear er were it to be building an Atlas rocket or quickly sketching a bird- house. I feel sure that the businesses that Mr. McGee worked for were sorry to see him leave, but we all hope to see him stay here at Berkeley Hall. TEACHING... ENJOYABLE, CHALLENGING, REWARDING? by Dale Crow Is teaching really all this? To our new Third Grade teacher, Mrs. Bennett it is. Can you imagine teaching being enjoyable? Mrs. Bennett claims that every day she learns and hears funny things which she will never forget. Knowing every child with his individ- ual personality makes each day inter- esting. Almost everyone agrees that teach- ing is a challenge. As it is, Mrs. Bennett's first experience is quite challenging. Trying to understand each person and working with him at his own ability adds to this chal- lenge. How could she find it rewarding? Mrs. Bennett's reward is to have the opportunity to work with children and find what they are really like. For the moment we will forget teach ing and go deeper into her life. Mrs. Bennett was born in Texas but she has lived in California most of her life. Her hobbies are Journalism, reading, music, and swimming. Speaking of swimming, she was a swimming instruc- tor for a Christian Science camp up north. This experience was the only time she ever really worked with children. Her ambition was to be a school teacher, so in college she majored in elementary education. Last year she completed her course and graduated from los Angeles State College. After her graduation, in the summer, she was married to a handsome Air Force Captain. All in all I think Mrs. Bennett makes a marvelous Third Grade teacher Don't you? THUNDERBIRD TEACHER by Linda Vogel Zoo-oom! HLook out, here comes Mrs. Evans in her T-Birdln what is this teacher who drives a sports car really like? why did she choose to teach at Berkeley Hall? Her reason is, nIt is a new experience. I like the environment with its beautiful campus, its variety of teachers, and its use of Christian Science in solving every problem. Berkeley Hall has a lovely atmosphere and an especially nice group of students from refined homes.H Mrs. Evans was born in Champaign, Illinois, and later moved to Cali- fornia. At Occidental College she majored in speech, arts, and education and minored in English. Her first teaching experience was in the Riverside Elementary School Sixth Grade for five years. For thirteen years, Mrs. Evans taught Seventh Grade math and Eighth Grade speech arts in the Whittier Schools. She was in charge of all school plays and was head of the dramatics depart- ment. Why does Mrs. Evans like to teach? HI like children, especially around the Junior High School age, and I like to see the results and progress they make. I learn a lot from my students, and by this, I become more alert and understanding. Teaching keeps me young in my mind.H Mrs. Evans is now teaching history, MOMENTARY DELIGHT by Debbie Boughn Could you have a refreshing and gay personality after teaching a Fourth Grade Classroom for four or five months? Probably not, unless you were as vivacious and experienced as Mrs. Linsdell, Berkeley Hall's new Fourth Grade teacher. In September Mrs. Linsdell joined the faculty of Berkeley Hall. She says that her reason for doing so was the inspiring atmosphere put forth by the children, teachers, and principal - Mr. Nelson. Mrs. Linsdell came from Montana where she majored in education at Eastern Montana University. Aside from her school activities, she is a professional singer. Mrs. Linsdell once had the privilege of singing before the Crown Prince and Princess of Norway. She was Supervisor of Music for two and one-half years at La Habra, and is now soloist at the First Church of Christ Scientist in Fullerton. Mrs. Linsdell is now teaching the Fourth Grade about Indians and the Early Gold Rush Period. Because of Mrs. Linsdel1's warmth and enthusiasm, I am sure the Fourth Grade will benefit much from her teaching. math, and English to the Seventh Grade at our wonderful school. She stresses oral work and perfect diction. Teaching, to Mrs. Evans, is truly a rich, satisfying, rewarding experience. -Q7 sq Y 1 X J d A 7 fy, g ..,...-.---+ . 21? gf. 'T , .

These many classes and grueling ages could be an almost impossible task to con- tain so far as mischievous deeds and vocal exertions. But as you can well imagine Berkeley Hall has found an un- surpassable answer to this problem-- Mrs. Purtle. With her great talent for music she has fashioned even the mis- chievous set into an unforgettable series of choirs. And through these years, she has carved a sculptive mas terpiece, the present Ninth Grade... which has grown into the superior of the Mormom Tabernacle Choir. For her many chores consisting of three Christmas PRIMARY COUNSELOR by Paul Purtle The new Hprimary counselorn at Berke- ley Hall is Mrs. McKim. She joined the Berkeley Hall staff this year and en- joys filling in wherever needed. Since her children are enrolled in Berkeley Hall and there was aneed for a person to supervise the Hjuniorsf Mrs. McKim came to Berkeley Hall. When you first meet Mrs. McKim, you are struck by her friendliness and warmth. She seems to radiate love. Be- cause of this, children and grownups like and enjoy her. Mrs. McKim's main hobby is art,which she hoped would be her major in college. Now she directs any, and all, Primary art classes. Each day, many new experiences awaiting Mrs. McKim help her understand the thoughts and actions of these small people. Surely, Mrs. McKim adds love and assistance to our Berkeley Hall faculty.

We thank Mrs. Bosler for help in finish- ing the Annual. We thank Mrs. St. John for taking care of our financial affairs, although she has to be watched. We thank Mrs. Savage for all her courtesy and help to students and teach- ers. Finally, we thank Mr. Nelson for promoting all of our projects. Because of his help, we have proved successful during our years at Berkeley Hall. MARK: Mark is known for his lack of dens1ty,, And his outstanding intellectual propensity.

For three straight years she has brought the present Ninth Grade an added culture, that of literature. February 26, l964, a new semester be- gain with great expectations of meet- ing Shakespeare, Browning, Homer, and other literary geniuses. Under Mrs. Dlouhy's careful direction, we have become acquainted with such great works as: Julius Caeser, As You Like It Qboth Shakespearej, Sonnets of The Fdrtuguese by Browning, and Homer's The Odyssey. Also, the Ninth has creaked at Poe's mysteries and ponder- ed over Maupassant's short stories. All in all the Ninth Grade have produced one outstanding play, The Mikado, have taken hundreds of pages of useful literature notes Cconcern- ing authors and their worksl and have turned out some fine, original poems in creative writing. we dare the next class to do as well. BERKELEY HALL'S BATTLEFIELDS by Carolyn Carnesciali and Charlotte Pahlavi The battle lines were drawn on the basketball and volleyball courts this year at Berkeley Hall. These two games provided many stimulating and dramatic moments. Dale Crow, Captain of the Whites, and Susie Dewindt, Captain of the Blues, led their tropps onto the bat- tlefield fmore commonly known as a basketball court! for a hard fought fHOuch, my foot!'J and often comical contest between the two well matched teams. HTwe-e-e-t! Foul on .... H Mrs. Jeff- ries and Miss Letts have greatly help- ed our games by coaching us and being good umpires. Qwho ever heard of a good ump1re?J They were very patient in their explanations of the finer points of guarding. fHYou don't have to hit the girlnon the head to be a good guard dear. Both teams put up a tremendous bat- tle in both basketball and volleyball. After many bruised knees and heads, the Whites emerged victorious in bas- ketball. SHARPENING OUR READING TOOLS by Kirk R. Honeycutt when Mrs. O'Connor told us last fall that we would be taking a read- ing course during the second semes- ter, questioning looks greeted her. what was there to know about reading that we already d1dn't know? Why, we had reading in the first grade! Sure enough, when the second semes- ter rolled around, she presented us with the S.R.A. CScience Research Associates, Inc.J Reading Laboratory. when we discovered that we also were to learn listening skills, we just shook our heads. However, as usual, Mrs. O' was one up on us. Our read- ing habits and comprehension were tremendously improved. We found through experience that listening was a main part of speech and, although we were all good talkers, many of us were not good listeners. As the class progressed through each color group, our reading status symbol, we found ourselves reading faster and with greater understand- ing. We would read a power or rate builder and then answer questions about the selection. It was a do-it- yourself project, since we corrected and scored our own work. In class we also spent time on the aforementioned listening skills and note-taking skills. The latter should prove invaluable to us in later life. In learning the tricks of note taking and summarizing, we are prepared to take high quality notes in class lectures or on a Job. I think all will agree that the S.R.A. reading course has furthered us toward our goal of academic excellence. All right now, everyone turn to page forty and answer the questions on this article. The Blues were determined to win volleyball, and they did, by two points! Although there were many complaints about such great crisis as broken fingernails, all the girls agreed that the Hbattle-scarsu were worth- while. 'ff N W n+w'??k-Z , . 1 r RNA .F f ' ' .

This just doesn't fit.n As the second of November rolled a- round, families of Berkeley Hall's Fourth, F1fth,and Sixth Grades became feverish with activity. Those last finishing touches were put on each costume for the Intermediate Hallow- een Party. what a party! The costumes ranged from the Abominable Snowman to the Berkeley Hall-Billies. Each class was judged separately. Then the grand prize winners were selected from that group. The winners were: Fourth Grade: l.Barry Goldwater and Friends--Barry Beitler, Lewis Snyder, Mike Lambert. 2.Indian Group--Kathy Baron, Janet DeSilva Cwith hel of small brothers, Bruce and Johns, Deborah McDowell. 3.U-2 Nelson Subma- rine--Hally Davis and Mark McMahan. Fifth Grade: l.Shipbuilder in a Bottle--David Dittmar. 2.The Berkeley Hall-Billies--Robin Charlston and Deborah O'Hara. 3.The Abominable Snow- man--Marshall Stimson. Sixth Grade: l.The Large Caterpillar --De55ie Bleichman, Betsy Beitler, Yvette Monroe, and Wendy Smith. 2.Cinderella, Half Rags and Half Riches --Wendy Young. 3.Mr. Nelson, The Croquet Player--Patty Reeder. The games started with apple ducking and musical chairs. The great event was when the Blowhards of Berkeley Hall competed in the ping-pong ball blowing contest. Next was the grand prize for masks. Pebbles Flintstone, young daughter of Mr. Fred Flintstone was the winner. She, accompanied by her creator in art, Patty Reeder, accepted the prize quite enthusiastically. This party is really for the enjoy- ment of the parents and relatives. They have the most fun. As the evening pro- gressed, apple cider was served to the parents. with all the activity, someone had misplaced a bottle labeled uApple Cider Vinegar.n No more than five min- utes elapsed when parents staggered back wanting more of uthe stuff.n The party was a complete success, and all returned home with memories of this enjoyable evening. PROFESSIONAL DANCERS? by Mary Ann Baker The Kings and Queens of the campus started the year of fortnightlies with a bang when they demonstrated their old-fashioned slow dancing technique at the Halloween Dance. Mrs. O'Connor,our loving teacher, had the desired C?J privilege of danc ing with every one of the talented Ninth Grade Boys. Onlookers hoped and prayed that her feet would survive those few brief moments with each boy The Seventh Graders were initiated to their first Junior High Fortnight- ly,other than the Sixth Grade Invita- tional. They were all enthusiastic about attending futne fortnightlies. Decorating the auditorium gave the Eighth Grade Girls their first chance to show off their art work. They cov- ered every wall with frightful look- ing witches and goblins. The highlight of the evening was the dancing of the Slauson.For those of you who don't have teenagers,this is a dance done in a line. The forma- tion was topped only by the demonstra tign of the 'Ninth Grade Old-Fashion- ed Slow Dancing Techniqueu by Mr. Nelson and Mrs. O'Connor. THE MIKADO by Kirk Honeycutt Q An unusual performance of Gilbert and Sullivan's Mikado was given on November fifteenth. Gilbert and Sullivan lost. The play was presented by the Ninth Grade, directed by Mrs. Dlouhy, and produced by mistake. Most of the time the alleged actors had their backs to the audience, but it was generally agreed that this was the best part. In all fairness to the actors, the play was performed under extremely difficult circumstances - the curtains were open. The title role was played by Brad Scott. Our illustrious editor, Bob Moore, played Nanki-Poo, Paul Appleby appeared as Ko-Ko, the Lord High Executioner Cof the play, that is J, Yum Yum was performed by Dorothy Roelse, and, in a bit of great casting, Susan Dewindt played the elderly Katisha. As expected, each mother acclaimed her offspring the best. THANKSGIVINGN by David Greenwalt and Julie Stevens what is Thanksgiving? Webster's Dictionary says, HA day set apart each year for thanksgiving and praise to Godn. Here at Berkeley Hall we celebrate Thanksgiving every day of the year. Everyone appreciates the benefits of attending a Christian Science School. However, we do have a special day set aside to glorify God. This year, that day was November 28, 1963, when the Ninth Grade held its annual Thanksgiving Service. Sincerity and maturity are only two of the factors that singled out this year's program as the best service ever held. Mary Ann Baker and Kent Bilsborrow read with understanding equal to that of church readers. The Ninth Grade boys accomplished the task of ushering with dignity and organization. The testimonies given by the students were enlightening and grat- ifying. All-in-all, the Thanksgiving service was beneficial to all, and it gave the true spirit of Thanks- giving to everyone. emi' l3ilSbOrY'0w Mary Ann Baker CHRISTMAS TIDINGS by Debbie Boughn The Junior High School Christmas Program, presented on December 13, proved to be a most inspiring assem- bly. The Seventh Grade opened the pro- gram with their carol,Hwe Three Kings of Orient Areu, an American song composed by Hopkins. The next selec- tions were, no Come Little Childreni a German melody sung in three part harmony and HBeautiful Savioru, the Crusader Hymn. The Eighth Grade participated by singing their lovely song, nHe is Bornn, by Davis. They also sang, HChristmas Dayn, by Anderson and a Frenchncarol, HSleep of the Child Jesus. The Eighth Grade was then Qoined by the Ninth Grade to sing, 'Break Forthn, by Bach. This was expertly sung because of the many voices, es- pecially the deep voices of the boys. The most appreciated part of the program took place when all three grades joined in harmony to sing NAngels We Have Heard on Highn, a French carol. The effect of an echo choir was achieved by stationing the Seventh Grade in the back of the auditorium. The parents unanimously claimed that the presentation was a wonderful success. LUCKY or UNLUCKY? by Susie Dewindt Throughout history, Friday the thirteenth has been considered as unlucky...that is, until Friday the thirteenth, December 1963. This particular Friday was the day of Berkeley Hall's annual Christmas Formal. Upon arrival, the girls assembled in the powder room to Hshow offu their formals and the boys hid in their corner to discuss sports and politics. The original decorations, made to the theme of HChristmas In Different Parts of the Homen were made Qand worried aboutl by the Eighth Grade girls. Instead of Mr. Nelson having to be a HDisc Jockeyf he was the HMaster of Ceremoniesn for the hired orchestra. CH ISTMAS PARTY by Laurie Thomas and Mark Bickerton Oh, no! What a mess! On December 17, a very rambunctious party took place in Shield Hall. The Ninth Grade room was artistically decorated with bright red streamers, made of crepe paper, hanging from all directions. Some were hung so carefully that they covered some desks completely. This was a good place to hide from the staring gaze of Mrs. O'Connor. No set pattern was used and there was no standard width for the paper. How could this massive conglom- eration be called decorations? It was impossible for one to go hungry, for there was an abundance of food--cakes, cookies, candy, punch, and so on. While eating, the Ninth Grade indulged in one of the favorite pastimes at home and in school--talking Mrs. O'Connor, to her great surprise Q??D, received a beautiful black mohair sweater from the class. After all had eaten, the class sang our magnificent Shield Song, not once but three times. The joyous ending came when Mrs. O'Connor announced that there would be no homework over the Christmas holidays At eleven fifty-six, the decorations were being taken down and by twelve o'clock, Shield Hall was completely vacant. Fast work? Well, it does seem rather strange that it took almost one hour to decorate our room and only four minutes to take the decora- tions down. At intermission the boys devoured most of the delicious food, leaving the remains for the girls. The Christmas tree, which stood as a symbol of all the heritages given to us, was enjoyed by all. The singing of Christmas carols and the recitation of excerpts from Mrs. Eddy's Christmas Messages and the Bible rounded off a perfect even- ing. All must agree that Friday the thirteenth, December l963, was a very lucky day. THE HKING OF SHIELD HALLH by Larry Charlston what is this thing which I have named it is piece black story the HKing of Shield Hall?n Why, the Class of Sixty-Four's master- -our beautiful copper, gray,green, and white shield. Here is the of its creation from start to The letters were hand made and painted black. The most unique thing about our shield was the flaming torch. After much experimenting, we used asbestos blocks soaked in lighter fluid for the flame. This shield is the best made as to use of materials, workmanship, and finish. The drawings of what our shield should look like, were submitted in the fourth and fifth weeks of school. Guy Veloz's drawing was chosen to be constructed. The ideas for a motto were then sub- mitted. After much discussion, it was decided that HRight is Mightn was to be our motto. The committee chairmen for the build- ing of the shield were Kent Bilsborrow, John Steelesmith, and Larry Charlston. They in turn chose people to work on the different parts of the shield. The first thing done was the cutting out of the shape. Next, boarders were made. The difficult construction of the bowl and torch followed. The torch was made by covering a framework with balsa wood. This was then painted gray. The bowl was made of several layers of wood, and covered, piece by piece, with copper plating. Cutting the small leaves, sanding them, painting and placing them in a natural setting, was the combined work of many. The motto, which was cut and sanded to look like a scroll, was painted white. originality. SHIELD DANCE: A GREAT SUCCESS by Chris Sansone From the workshop to eternity in Shield Hall comes the HShield that's greatest ofall.H Friday night, January 24, at Berkeley Hall School, the great Ninth Grade Shield of 1964 was presented. As an added attraction the Junior High enjoyed a band comprised of five Ninth Graders. Our exceptional band consisted of Bob Moore, Dave Greenwalt, and Brad Scott on steel guitars, Larry Charlston on piano, and Paul Purtle on drums. Even though the numbers were short and few, the band was a great success. look for them at the Parents' Fortnightly. The auditorium was decorated by paper streamers forming a star across the dance floor. A giant blue and white ball was hung from the middle of the auditorium ceiling upon which were centered blue The presentation never be forgotten. sets it apart from spotlights. of the Shield will Its originality all other shield presentations. After the Shield Song fsung to the tune of HThe Great Escapew was finished, the lights were switched off and curtains opened. There was our Shield...the torch gave off a fiery glow. The lights were turned on and the audience saw the black frame, green wreath, and gray and copper torch. The parents were invited most memorable night. As they watched, the Ninth Grade's new stomp craze, I'm sure they were looking back on their younger years and saying, Uwe never did thatlu Special thanks to Mrs. Purtle who graciously gave time to help us write the lyrics for our song, to Guy Veloz who designed the Shield, to all the Ninth Grade boys who constructed itg and especially to Mr. McGee, who gave up his precious drafting time. on this I CONTEMPORARY CLASSIQUES by Chris Sansone Would you like to come to a charm- ing fashion show and art gallery? Welcome to our Ninth Grade Girls' Fashion Show..held on April 23 at Berkeley Hall School. Rembrandt couldn't have painted a prettier picture than that of our Ninth Grade fashion models. The first twelve outfits were presented in the unique fashion ofda large gold frame in which each girl passed. All these fashions were made by each model in sewing class instructed by Mrs. Dorathylea Richards. As the girls made graceful pivots, Mrs. Dlouhy described their clothes. Also display- ed were original paintings loaned us by Mrs. Molly Chappellet. The object was to bring out the colors of the out fit in the abstract painting. Curtains opened for the second scene which showed a beach party. There were twelve models in colorful beach shifts and bathing suits. The last scene consisted of made-at- homes. The girls showed their sewing skill in this scene- The Fashion Show ended with the traditional finale and a bouquest given to each mother. At the conclusion of the program, th Ninth Grade Girls assisted in serving refreshments to the mothers. At this time, the Eighth Grade Girls were thanked for their priceless help in assisting the costume changes of Senior Girls. FACT OR FABLE by Julie Stevens, Cameron Young At last!

It begins normally as any Berkeley Hall Box Social does...a few boys are hiding in the bushes to see whose box is whose, and Mr. Nelson is tearing around frantically, trying to graciously encourage the parents to depart. Finally he succeeds in ridding the stage and dance floor of parents Can act, which by the way, leaves him completely tuckered out for the remainder of the eveningj. The dance finally begins. As the dance progresses, there are a few whispered secrets about Hpink ribbonsn and by nine, when the bidding begins, the boys are fairly well inform- ed. We get through the auctioning with only a few catastrophes, such as a purple ribbon being mistaken for a pink one. After a few bribes and money pay- ments, all is settled. Even if you didn't bring extra change for such incidents, the food is quite satisfying, no matter who cooked it. Of course, you won't dance as well after- wards, but the teachers are counting on the idea that you'll recover by Monday. All agree the Box Social is one of the most enjoyable fortnightlies.

The wonderful camaraderie of the parent dance s and students helped make this Uthe one and onlyu for the Berkeley Hall mothers and fathers. DITCH DAY by David Greenwalt Friday, May 8, was not quite as tortuous as a regular day. The entire Ninth Grade Class went to Disneyland. Leaving Berkeley Hall at 9:00 a.m. in a barrage of screaming horns and gratitude that was very similar to when the people of East Germany were allowed to see the people of West Germany at Christmas. We arrived seventy-five minutes later in a flashing cloud of dust where we all hurried into the NMagic Kingdomn except Brad Scott, who tripped and got stuck in the whirl- ing gates. He finally was returned to us in the Lost-and-Found. From here on it was every man for himself. Mark Bickerton made a dash for Fantasyland where he was first in line for the HFlying Dumbon ride. Other exciting rides included: Flying Saucers Senior Autopia fexcept Larry Charlston, who had to ride on the Junior Autopiaj, Rocket to the Moon, and the Matterhorn. Paul Appleby and Guy Veloz were seen on such daring rides as the exciting HPeter Pan Riden, the frightening nMr. Toad Rideu, and the terrifying HSnow White LandH.' Storybook Land offered its fine fwry tales to Bob Moore and Lindsey Nicholl. For some reason, while Mrs. O'Connor was on the Jungle Boat, all the terrifying, carnivorous, dangerous beasts of the woodland fled in terror! ?? by Mary Ann Baker Mrs. Richards, Berkeley Hall's art teacher, teaches art to the Fourth through Eighth Grades and sewing to the Ninth Grade girls. The Fourth Graders, who have never had art before, are started out with perspective. Many of the students at first wonder why all these lines have to be drawn just to get a house, but all these questions are carefully explained by Mrs. Richards. The Fourth Graders also get their first chance to make their own clay clowns and masks for Halloween, which they continue to do also in the Fifth and Sixth grades. The Fifth Graders learn about the many kinds of birds and how to skill- fully draw them. After their master- pieces are finished, they are proudly displayed around the room. The ability of putting on layers and layers of paper and glue on balloons fpeople, tool and skillfully drawing maps to put on the paper mache' globes, are what everybody in the Sixth Grade looks forward to. The knowledge of colors Qwith their many termsj and learning to write their initials Qmonogrammingj are skillfully taught to the Seventh Grade girls. Mrs. Richard's artistic influence on the Eighth Grade Girls may be seen in the decorations at every Junior High Fortnightly. The organization and originality of the idea improve each year. Last, but not least, Mrs. Richards takes pride and joy in the annual Fashion Show. This shows how she has disciplined and taught the Ninth Grade girls to sew. Although it took many, many, many fand very influencingj threats to stop the weekly treats of gooey cakes and pies, and explaining to Mrs. O'Connor why the girls were late for their history test, Mrs. Richards is delighted with the beautiful clothes she taught her girls to sew. We returned to Berkeley Hall at 4:00 in a cloud of terror at the fact that the old grind would soon start again. However, we had a whole weekend to re- cuperate and remember the most trium- phant and historic Ditch Day of them al SEWING by Dale Crow HHurry up with the machine, I need it fast.n HGimme the iron.H Hwhere's the ripper?n Hwho took my pins?H A whirlwind just went by, every- one is madly rushing around to finish their outfits for the Fashion Show. Occasionally you'll hear some- one yell, HIS this too short?H or HDoes it look too tight?u Soon you get used to all the noise, and you join in too. Sometimes if you listen very closely, you'll hear the Ninth Grade girls singing as loudly as they can so all the grades can get the full benefit of their spectacular voices. when you hear a bunch of yelling, you'll know it's gossip time. when the room quiets down, Mrs. Richards is giving a lecture. After everyone settles down, Mrs. Richards devotes her time to any problems we are having in sewing. fThere's always something.D After many long weeks of hard work, and Mrs. Richards' patient help, we are prepared for what we think is the best Fashion Show ever. Now let's go back to the beginning of Sewing when you'll frequently hear, HHow does this machine work?H or HI can't follow the pattern.H The most frequently used word is HHelp!H During this period from lO:3O to ll:3O, the girls were to make aprons for their mothers and what were called shirts for their dads. After the long hours of slaving away, they were finished and looked pretty good, considering all the ripping that was done. we must give all credit to Mrs. because if it weren't for Richards, her, all of our clothes would still be pinned together. Thanks to Mrs. Richards, we have had an unusual, yet enjoyable year. THE DEBATE by Kent Bilsborrow The Ninth Grade has a seemingly endless list of things to be done before June. well, leave it to our wondrous, witty algebra wizard - Mrs. O'Connor - to think up something new for this already mile-long list. The boys would put on a debate to equal the girls' annual Fashion Show. SPRING FORMAL by Julie Stevens You walk in, breath-taking isn't it? The Berkeley Hall Spring Formal is enough to make all other dances seem rather unimportant. Oh well, don't think about those dances, you're here now. I bet you thought that June twelfth would never arrive. But now, with the beautiful flowers on the walls, artistically designed by the Eighth Grade girls and the Ninth Grade decorations blending in, you know it's finally here. Everyone is ready for an enchanting evening, made so by the delightful perfume of the gardenia corsages worn by the girls and the delicious food promptly eaten by the boys. An exciting and strikingly original idea was the hiring of the as our new band. This was more thrilling by the look shock and disbelief on Mr. face when he realized that Esquires made even of utter Nelson's the Hmusicn actually sounded like music, and that at least they're not the Beattles! During the course of the evening there was quite a bit of Hjumpingn around fso translated by the parentsj and a wonderful time was had by one and all. Well, maybe we were just a little worn out. However, GVGPYOHS survived the night and woke up fresh as daisies in the morning. We WSFG almost glad that this particular dance was the last of the year, be- cause it was such a perfect ending to all the Fortnightlies which were enigyed so much throughout the year. After much discussion, The Nuclear Test Ban Treaty was chosen as a topic. Wie Affirmative-Kirk Honeycutt, Richard Larson, Guy Veloz, - and the Negative-Paul Appleby, David Green- walt, Bob Moore, - and the Announcer- Paul Purtle, - went right to work. The debate was given in an assembly and proved to be so good that it was chosen for the Mothers' Club. As practiced orators should, each of the boys put his point across. Each debater spoke in a convincing, dignified manner, and used perfect diction Qof coursej. One leaned on the podium, pointed at you, and gave his opinion in a nbelieve it or elsen method. Another spoke slowly and de- cisively, as if to pound every word into your head. The rebuttals were excellent. The debate not only ful- filled its objective of equaling the girls' Fashion Show - it surpassed it!

MENTAL FAUX PAS by Kirk Honeycutt As Mrs. O'Connor was telling a graduate of Berkeley Hall, our class has been the most Hinterestingu she has had the fortune to teach. Many a time she was heard trying hard to convince herself, HI am teaching the Ninth Grade. I am teaching the Ninth Grade. I am teaching the Ninth Grade.H what exactly causes a person to pull a uboner' in or out of the class- room has not yet been ascertained. Perhaps mental laziness or inattention has some bearing on it. Certainly not ignorance, for we are self- acclaimed as the brightest and best- looking class to grace the Berkeley Hall campus. This, then, is a case that would have Freud frustrated. Mrs. O'Connor got a preview of what was to come when she requested Lindsey Nicholl to diagram a sentence on the back of our reversible black- board. After a few moments of silent meditation, Lindsey queried, HShould I write upside down?' Another time, Mrs. O'Connor was continually reminding Guy all that period to nkeep quiet or go outside and sit in your chair.n Finally she seemed to subdue him. A few minutes later, she suddenly realized she was running overtime and quickly dismissed the class. Over the commotion Guy could be heard saying, HI would've told you, but you told me to be quiet.H Charlotte, on being questioned as to why she was in conversation with Laurie during study hall, answered, HI was just taking time out for rest.. Then there was the time Bob Moore managed to leave his baby sister at school, though some wonder if this was intentional. At the lunch table Richard Larson was explaining how his dad, an NBC executive, went out on location in the valley for the shooting of HBonanza.H Kent, who apparently was awakening from a pleasant daydream, happened to catch the end of the last sentence. uOh, no,H he said knowlingly, HYou're not allowed to shoot guns in the valley.n Denise Day left 'em laughing at the Fashion Show when she stumbled on the frame she was getting out of, headed for the wrong door, tripped over a beach umbrella, and failed to enter on her cue. Our Ninth Grade Band has been a source of enjoyment for all, but occasionally they too have had their not-so-intelligent moments. Not only did Brad continually break his G-string and Bob somehow damage his speaker, but they managed to throw the whole P.A. system in the auditorium out of kilter. Now I don't want you to get the impression that Mrs. O'Connor is never guilty of Nboners.n On one particular day, she informed us that the earth Hresolvedn around the sun. After instructing us to write our names on the papers we were correcting, she sternly asked Cameron, Uwhat are you writing on that paper?H Every now and then she finds it necessary to ask what day it is from one of her students Cmuch to the mortification of the student who has forgotten alsol. Now, dear reader, we find ourselves no nearer a conclusion than we did at the commencement of this article. Our efforts to analyze these, shall we say, mental miscalculations have proved fruitless. Yet we are certain that Mrs. O'Connor will never again teach a class quite so Hinteresting.H BOYS' ATHLETICS by Lindsey Nicholl Crash, crunch, boom! This year, boys' athletics started with football season and Mr. McGee, our new coach. The Blues and Whites were divided into two divisions, the lightweights and the heavyweights. Football was played with great enthusiasm and shrewd offensive and defensive maneuvers. The teams behind captains Bob Moore of the Blues and Guy Veloz of the Whites battled all the way, ending in a tie. In basketball, the team captains were Lindsey Nicholl of the Whites and Larry Charlston of the Blues. The games were fast moving and full of excitement. The smaller team, the Whites, beat the Blues, proving that team work and shooting ability was more important than height. In baseball, team captains Brad Scott and Paul Appleby led their teams into hotly contested battle. As a result, Mr. Nelson's insurance rates have sky- rocketed because of many broken win- dows. We started the year with heavy and ligntweights but finished the year as two complete teams. As our Annual goes to press, the Whites are leading but the remainder of the year could have great bearing on the outcome.

It was 2:30 and twelve graceful C?D girls trooped up to the front door of Mrs. Jur0w's beauti- ful home in Mandeville Canyon. Graceful? They actually were! But these were the girls I'd been playing baseball with. Oh well, on the other hand, this was the Ninth Grade Tea honoring them and I sup- pose they should act halfway decent.Half- way? You've never seen such carrying ons in your life! HOh, you just look beautiful!..There's a string...Oh! fix it...please hurry...l just love that color...Where'd you get it? Oh! I forgot my gloves...Mmm, l'm hungry.. I love your...Well, let's go insideln So we marched inside. No, wait a minute. This is the Tea, remember? We gracefully floated over the threshold and landed inside. Mrs. Jurow was there to greet us, along with Mrs. 0'Connor. Her home was just beautiful and was a perfect setting for a tea. We had just formed our reception line when people began to arrive. Well, here was the worst part and it turned out to be fun. Ad-libbing became quite popular at this point and it broke the tension. We only had to wait three hours for re- freshments, that wasn't bad, was it? No, not bad at all. Everyone enjoys standing for hours in high heels while seeing all sorts of soft chairs and goodies around you. But we had loads of fun and I'm sure everyone had a very enjoyable time. We are very grateful to Mrs. Jurow for her lovely home and the Past Officers of the Berkeley Hall Mothers' Club for their careful planning to make this a day to remember. cont. from page 47 Bob: Speaking of that popular hotel, I have a special treat for everybody tonight. We have with us the band that is currently tearing up the town at the Snake Eyes--The Northmen of which I am a part. CEnter The Northmen--Bob,Brad,Dave,Larry, and Paulj. After number, curtains close amid standing ovation. 4 . M S. HANSEN by Kirk Honeycutt Life has been anything but dull for Mrs. Hansen, who is assisting the primary teachers this year. Even her education has been varied. In school she studied such difficult subjects as chemistry and physics. As a young girl she went to the Wright Patterson Air Base in Dayton, Ohio, to learn radar operating. Little did she real- ize that years later her husband, in the space systems division of the Air Force, would be assigned to that very base. Her formal education took place at Lawrence Colege in Appleton, Wisconsin, and at the University of Wisconsin. After graduating she had the privi- lege to become the first woman engi- neer in a state radio station, WHA of Wisconsin. This, she told your campus reporter, was an exciting experience. Despite the fact she has lived all over the United States, she found time to substitute teach in Ohio. Her main responsibility here at Hthe Halln is helping on the play- ground. She is fortunate in having two of her three children in Berkeley Hall. How does Mrs. Hansen like it here as Primary Assistant after all her exciting occupations? HI'm very happy and just love it,H she told your roving reporter. This is the fourth time she and her family have resided in the Los Angeles area. We are all hoping that she is here to Stay.
