VVC make loud speeches about it, yell at the games and rallies, and sometimes shout in places where we f gg Vg' 61? Q shouldn't shout at all. We have great pride in our student Qi body organization and in the fact that we all pay our student fig? body dues. WVe Subscribe for the OLLA PODRID.-xg we sup- port the athletic gamesg and We attend all of the shows. As a result our financial condition is good, and we keep on increasing our athletic equip- ment. On the surface everything is prosperous. Berkeley High School spirit is great. But I wonder whether this success and this tumult, noise, and shouting represent the real Berkeley High School spirit of which we should be proud. llow can we reconcile this success with the fact that there are complaints about our misconduct in public places, and even upon our own premises? ls it not true that some of us fail to distinguish between the signs of material success and the development of a social life which has real spiritual value? The best school is the one in which the best work is done in studies and in student activities: where teachers and students co-operate in trying to help each otherg where each is willing to give up his personal desires to advance the general welfare: and where a spirit of happiness prevails. A school has a spiritual life, just as an individual has, and when we speak of the B. ll. S. spirit we should have that in mind. Whether this is good or bad depends not upon the noise which some of us make, but rather upon the good will and the attitude of co-operation which our whole student body displays. 'l'o me the B. H. S. spirit is splendid, but it will not remain so unless we understand what it really is and make continual effort to bring into line those who do not understand. This is the big problem of our student body. Keep up the good old Berkeley High spiritf, But remember that the spirit is not in the shouting but in the quiet, steady, determined purpose to make the best of every situation. .534 aff..

The editorial staff this semester has tried to present impersonal facts in all of its articles, allowing the reader to draw his own conclusions. The managerial staff has tried to solicit only those advertisements that have proved their worth. The editor and manager have tried to give the Asso- ciated Students a newsy newspaper: a paper that has something more than one column of jokes in it. Special mention should be made of the following groups without whose work this volume could not have been produced so successfully: The Journalism class, who wrote news items, editorials, and gathered jokes for each issue. The Printing class who carefully and accurately printed the paper. The boys who gave valuable time each week to the folding and deliver- ing of the VVICEKLY. And the A. S. B. H. S. who generously shared both our mistakes and our triumphs. HAROLD MCGRATH. ROHERT SNYDER. 00 'wget il , u A. S. B. ll-ll. S. THE spring term of 1927 dravvshto a close, we should look back over the events and activities of the term withlsatis- faction. To .say that these events were successful is the wig highest compliment that can be paid .the students, student ?,: w officers, and teachers. The school spirit was probably the -' if most outstanding feature this term. Seldom has the student body supported the athletic teams and activities as a whole as it did this term. Certainly Berkeley High spirit is not dead. The athletic teams of this term have been unusually strong. The bas- ketball team went quite a ways toward the state championship, while the Bees won the North Coast championship. Foolscap day was very successful, and was enjoyed by all. The two presentations of the Vaudeville ranked with those of past terms, and other social events have proved successful. The scholarship has also been high, and the Honor Society is becoming established. We hope that the Honor Society will raise the scholastic records still higher. The officers of the A. S. B. H. S. Wish to express their appreciation of the co-operation and enthusiasm given by the students and teachers. Such whole-hearted support has made this term a successful one. BOB DEWELL.

Friend- ship to each other and to our teachersg service to the school, as a whole, and in community pro- jects-what purpose could be better? Fifteen years ago the founda- tion for the Girls' Association was laid. Countless times in these Hfteen years has the Association proved its worth, both to its members and to outsiders. Berkeley High is one of the few schools that can boast of a Girls' Association that is self- supporting. Not only does our girls' organization maintain it- self, but each year the school re- ceives permanent and beautiful gifts from the girls. The library, the girls' gym, the parent-teach- ers' room-these are only a few places that have been beautified through the influence of the Girls' Association. The officers of the .Association join in expressing their apprecia- tion of the enthusiastic co-opera- tion which the girls and the student body as a whole have given to all our actixities May we also express our gratitude to Mrs. Stone, lVIr. Bieden- bach and the faculty for their loyal and earnest support. Rum XV.-x1.no. A AWP 'leafy Debelv CITIZENSHIP COMMITTEE The Citizenship Committee ny! J? fx I qlifffi fl X D09 Ralph HIS semester the Citizenship Committee has accomplished a great deal toward the betterment of B. H. S. spirit. The committee was first appointed two years ago and this term it finally came into its own The motto of the committee is Berkeley High 100 per cent Citizens The five members of the committee Andy Steen loe Bolton Lyon Hazleton and Leon Libeu assumed charge of ll A v ' I . . . . ' y A , ' Y L school regulations on Foolscap Day and worked steadily all semester. The traflic of the campus, the handling of the crowds at games, and the general school spirit of the student body are among those phases of school life which are controlled by the Citizenship Committee. Each member of the committee had several assistants working under him and these fellows de- serve special mention for their co-operation and hard work. Every semester the committee tries to do some special work, and this term it undertook the responsibility of keeping the grounds around school clean. It also played an active part in the success of the first Fiesta. In summing up, we may well claim that the Citizenship Committee of the Spring term of 1927 has been active and progressive in carrying on the work of its predecessors. HONOR SOCIETY The Honor Society A awww 53645 lllilfounding of the Honor Society is one of the .most notable ot this year's events. 'I he question of organizing an honor k,!iM'fif society was first considered and discussed by a group. of faculty members before the idea was presented to the students. .QKLQ9 EW? On September 20, 1926, representatives from all the advisories met to discuss the organization of an honor society. At this time hir. Biedenbach presented the project and a plan of organization that might be followed. The eligible members met on October 4, and a committee of three was appointed to assist in the drawing up of the constitution, which was pre- sented to the Society on October 8, when it was read and adopted. The organization has three purposes: to recognize scholarship when it is combined with character, to recognize leadership and service to the school: and, through an organization, to help in shaping higher standards and policies among the students of the Berkeley High School. The officers for the Fall term 1926 were as follows: President, David Gilmore: Vice-President, Helen Green: Secretary, Jacqueline Xvatkins: Fxecutive Board, Elizabeth Smart and Roderick lNlays. Those for the Spring term 1927 were: President, Fred Strippg Vice-President, Miriam Kerr: Secretary, hladge Talbot, Executive Board, James Carlton and VVal- ter Xvoodfill.

Helen hlatthew A year ago a few students met and organized a French Club for the promotion of interest in the French language, as well as in French litera- ture and dramatics. It was decided to call the new organization Circle Francais and to have it meet after school every other week. Franklin Daniel was the first president. During his presidency and that of Nlarv Frances Thelen, the members of the club have enjoyed many interesting and profitable programs. The attendance of the club has steadily increased. there being as many as fifty students present at some meetings. The end of the first year finds the Circle Francais an established fac- tor in student life at Berkeley High. The Spanish Cllnlb Presidefzl ...........................

The members are proud to say that, even though the club is a new organization, the work they have done has carried them to success and they have accomplished results that have fully satisfied their aim. They have had very interesting programs which give pleasure to the members. The German Cllnlb Prcsidwzt ............ . ........,.......

The most important activity of the Club is the Christmas program. which was successfully presented for the second time last term. The pro- gram consisted of German songs, poems, and skits which portrayed the customs of that country. An artistically decorated tree was the center of the settin .

All debates iylilffii were scheduled with Oakland High School this year, Berke- ley winning four out of six contests with thirteen out of a 1 v s lsii possible total of eighteen judges' decisions. E79-'a,Wf The silver debating cup, awarded by the Tri-City De- bating I,eague, now becomes the permanent possession of the Berkeley High School. This cup was established by the League in 1923 to be awarded an- nually to the championship school over a period of six years and to be owned permanently by the school winning it the most times during the six years. The cup was won by Fremont in 19233 Berkeley, 19243 Oakland, 1925, Berkeley, 19265 Berkeley, 1927. Those Forum members, who participated in the interscholastic series, and through whose excellent efforts this high debating record for Berkeley was made possible, are as follows: David Gilmore, Margaret Lamb, Mary Frances Thelen, Edwin Van de Mark, Ruth Waldo, Ward VVoods, Hanna VVilber, Fred Stripp, and Walter Woodhll. Forum officers serving during the Spring term of 1927 were: President, David Gilmore, Commissioner of Programs, Margaret Lamb: Commis- sioner of Records, Edwin Van de Mark: Commissioner of Publicity. Fred Stripp. The Poetry Cllulb WSE? IIE Poetry Club was organized in the spring of 1923. Since then the purpose of the club has been to encourage and help the young poets of the school. To this end, weekly meet- ings have been held and poetry has been read and studied gg on these occasions. This term an interesting Anthology Jgikgfif EQJW- has been gotten together, filled with the poems submitted to the club in the past. In March a social meeting was held, at which Mrs. Lehmer, a well known California poet, entertained the club and its guests with readings. This term has been very successful under the leadership of Melba Roat, President, assisted by Ruth I.yser, Vice-President, and Ruth lWarch, Secretary. THE UNT-XTTAINEIJ I wanted just a tiny place, And built beside the sea- No need to think of anyone, Nor they to think of me! And I would plant my ramblers VVith a sliced moon sqninting down On wizened, wee, thatch cottages- Some wrinkled fishing town. A back-ground, wilding nobleness. A reckless chalky clifT, Fishing nets along my walls- I'd longed them salt and stiff. I have seen many villages They were queer, stinted places, The fisher-folk were dark and old VVith care-stained faces. No fishing nets were on their walls And ramblers drooped and died, No squinting moon, no chalky cliffi The sea was Hat and wide. I wanted all that sunny life Of peace, but odds too great Denied me, Fish-wives mourned their dt-:ul And burned the lights till late. BETTY Aimxu. LA AMAPOLA Against the azure sky, You flaunt your petals, widely spread. Petals with the flame of the sunset here, .X touch from the heart of the sun in the blue sky. And the gold from it yet remains On the tips of your petals, deep lacquer red. llflARIE LOUISE SINE. MOONBEAMS Out of the silver night, From rays of crystal born Into the thick, velvet blackness of my room, the moonbeams fall. They gather in pools of virgin, fairy light And linger there, until the night begins to pall, And they vanish into the gray nothingness Of the coming morn. MARIE LOUISE Simi. THE MAKING OF A STREAM God took the restless waters of the sea, Bathed in the darkened silence of the night Dipped in the fragrance of the perfumed flowers, Added the wakeful chanting of the light, Mingled-in the glistening glory of the stars, Sprinkled through all the hidden magic of the mistg Then placed it as a diamond of our world, A jewel by the lips of Heaven kissed.

CIRCLE B MEMBERS YELL LEADERS FRANK WILKE JOHN LEARY REDMOND STAATS Rallies wq wwf J llli pep this spring has reached an unusual height. .Xt every rally, game, or meet this enthusiasm was evident. The yell ff leaders of this term, john Leary and his two able assistants, fi fties LM XQ5 Francis Xvilke and Buddy btaats, have been a trio of yell Wgggij' Q W leaders hard to beat. Fo' JW- During the basketball season the yell leader has worked under difficulties, as many of the games have been away from Berkeley. The first rally to be held this term was before the A. C. A. I.. game with Pied- mont. .Xs usual, much enthusiasm was shown and the rally was a great success. .AX snappy rally was held before the A. C. A. I.. track meet which came on lfriday, April 8, and for the Alameda-Berkeley ball game which took place on .Xpril 7. The rally was opened with a few words from the yell leader, john Leary. Newell Clement, captain of the track team, made a short speech in which he encouraged the student body to attend the meet and root for the team. Likewise, Harold Gill, captain of the baseball team, asked the student body to support the team at the Alameda game which was played on our field. Coach Erickson added a few words on the same subject. livery sport was well backed and it can be truthfully said that the spirit shown this term was better than ever before and let us hope that it continues to improve. Qs , 9 'i ' 1 -1 and coul Foolseap Day . 001.312-XP DAY made Freshman Day something new and dif- F .. in ' ' d be found ferent. lt took place this year on January 14. The idea was originated by Bob Dewell, student body president, and the Board of Control. lnstead of wearing old clothes, ' 3 on the traditional Old Clothes Day the students wore the largest or most unusual paper caps of all colors which or made. 'l he corridors and steps of the school presented W , , U , J X . an unusually colorful spectacle when everyone was arrayed in his bright cap. The events began with the dancing in the noon period. During the dancing a better spirit was shown than has been in evidence for a long time, as a great many of the students participated. Prizes were awarded for the best, or most unusual, caps found among those worn by the students. The prizes were awarded to Rosa Bloom and Lois Bigelow for the best girls' capsg to seven boys for the best boys' caps, and to Stanley Pierce for the tallest cap. School was dismissed at 1:45. Everyone then went to the bleachers, where the class stunts and athletic events were held. The Faculty Stunt. first on the program, was entitled School Life and portrayed Berkeley High activities and sports. Among the class stunts, the low and high twelve scrimmage was a tieg the high elevens won the straw pack: and the high scrubs came out ahead in the tenth-year stunt. Girls sold candy on the bleachers throughout the afternoon. As a whole, the students entered into the spirit of the day with a great deal of enthusiasm, which made the day a success. Thanks are due to lylr. lNl0rton and his boys for the music: to bliss Burke and hlr. hlorrill for acting as judges: to the coaches for the class stunts, and to the physical education department and Big B boys for the way in which they conducted the athletic events and handled the crowd. - ofggawln 4 . ff- if 0006 0 Aim YQ, ,W H1 fieshman girls were formally welcomed into Berkeley High on anuary 21 As usual, the girls met in the audi- Giirllsl Freshman Reception torium where a short program was presented in their honor. ,, Wh ri 9 , 'A I ' z z It. if V ' Ruth Waldo president of the Girls Association, and Mrs. 'regal' gm Stone gave unusually good talks welcoming the girls to .wavy Berkeley High. Then followed ee clever ska, written by Betty Branstead and directed by Ruth Waldcv, which depicted the freshman girls being welcomed by the senior girls. In this the freshman girls com- peted for their favorite senior sisters, and this resulted in many clever stunts from the supposed freshman girls. Lois Howard gave a very novel and enjoyable recital: Della Bernadou and Seconda Schmidt clogged, and Ruth XValdo gave a piano solo. The entertainment was declared to be a great success by all who saw it. After the performance, all the freshman girls, accompanied by their senior sisters, went upon the stage to receive a balloon as a favor. Then they went to the gymnasium, where they danced to the music of lNlr. Nlor- ton's orchestra. The punch bowl, in which ice-cold fruit punch was served, was surrounded by groups of thirsty girls between dances. The new girls left feeling very much more a part of school life and school activities than they had before, an attitude which is one of the fore- most objectives of the Girls' Association. ,,, oo., Motlheirsl Teas The class teas for mothers have occupied a prominent place in the social activities at Berkeley High this term. The custom of giving these teas was started in 1922, after the completion of the new academic building, when the girls were anxious that their mothers should see the new school. Since then these affairs have continued very successfully. Of the six teas given this term, the program, or entertainment, was given in the Parent-Teacher room, the Little Theatre, and the Library. Refresh- ments were always served in the Parent-Teacher room. The l.ow Twelve tea with a St. Valentine program, directed by Betty Branstead, was presented in the library. The High Ten tea had for enter- tainment Z1 St. Patrick's program. Nlany of the mothers are becoming interested in these teas, and the number of those attending has increased greatly. The teas have become an important activity, and have proved to be a very pleasant link between the home and the school. V 29 fs?

They laid out the greatly-needed walks on the east side of the Academic building, moved the cafeteria annex, planted shrubs in front of the gym and ivy around the girls' gym field. The 400 students were amply rewarded for their hard work by the improved appearance of the grounds. At noon the weary toilers hastened to the cafeteria to a delicious lunch. At the lunch the speakers were Dick Sims, Julian Unruh, Edwin Van de Mark, Tom McCord, Bertha Theis, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Biedenbach, all of whom gave enjoyable addresses. A few delightful musical numbers were also given. After lunch, the seniors went back to work, where they resumed their labors until 3 o'clock. Then they adjourned to the roof garden for dancing. The school has been fortunate this term in having two eventful days come close to each other toward the end of the term. One of these was Senior Labor Day, and the other was Fiesta Day, which was given the students of Berkeley High by the Parent-Teacher Association with the pur- pose of promoting a better spirit among the students and raising funds to buy a grand piano. Both of these days benefited the school as well as the students, and were most successful. .rar af? 9x90 .sg THE TYPING TEAM Typing may Hli date for the- State.Typing Contest is set so late this year that it is impossible to make a report on the results MV' in this issue of the Pod Por six yeais in succession Berke I ley has xx on at least one first place, and there is ex ery ieason will Ihe students of Berkeley High have been in the lead I L s V I L N I I K T Y .

They first went out for speed and won the Tupper trophy three years in succession, making it the permanent property of the school. Then they invaded the accuracy field and have brought home an accuracy trophy two years in succession. Four members of the team, Mable Johanson, bladge Talbot, Hilda Parsons, and Phyllis Foster, are out for accuracy, and each one of them has written a number of perfect 15-minute tests. Lily Naftaly, who is out for speed and accuracy, has been holding her errors to two in demonstration tests. In a preliminary contest with the Armstrong School of Business Ad- ministration, the team held its average errors to two. If it can do this in Sacramento on May 7, it will have done something no high school has ever done, according to the oHicial records. I - - - WW ROCQQR5 4 M462 A mg., oo 1 0?

The curtain then rose on a dinner dance in a cafe, named Variety, by VVendell VVitter. Iirnest Rowland and Arnold Lindquist in an original ven- triloquist stunt, Robert Nation as a soloist, and Kenneth Walker and Harry Malon as chalk artists were greatly enjoyed by the audience. Alan and Brenda Hargrave's comedy skit, What Price Auto? gave a very clever presentation of an auto salesman and a Swedish woman. The humorous dialogue was certainly appreciated by the audience. Uale Sandifur presented something new on the Vaudeville program, a niarimba-xylophone. Owing to illness, Donald Sandifur was unfortunately not able to appear, but the numbers rendered by Dale Sandifur were ex- cellent. VVhen Mother Was a Girl-But Daughter-Oh l, presented by Dor- othy Crowcll, contrasted the old-fashioned and the modern girl. .X piano solo by Herman Nelson and dancing numbers by Dorothy Crowell and Bernice Fritz were most interesting. During the intermission, the high school orchestra gave selections from the comic opera, The Serenade. A most artistic number, The Nlaster's Touch, was directed by Lin- coln Kaufmann. It portrayed living pictures, and the dancing, costumes. setting, and lighting were unusually attractive. Quiet, Please was an all boys' skit, humorous and acrobatic. Some clcver tumbling stunts and dialogue were given. VValter bliller managed this act. The concluding number was Hblelody blixupn by Frances lVoolsey and Teletc Lester. This consisted of humorous interpretations of popular songs, which were sung by the two girls presenting the skit, accompanied by Ruth Vvaldo. The audience filed out to the music of the exit march, f'Blaze of Glory, by the high school orchestra. The Vaudeville was successful not only from the standpoint of the enjoy- ment provided the audience, but also from a financial standpoint. A large profit was made, as the house was practically sold out for both nights. The success of the Vaudeville depends, to a great extent, upon those whose tasks are such that they do not appear on the stage. The boys who managed the performance were: Bob Dewell, general manager: Dick Sims. stage manager: Frank Nlcblneany, property managerg and Roy Jorgenson, electrician. The coaches, the orchestra, and the ushers deserve much credit for the way in which they co-operated in making the two performances a success. The Shakespeare Play ,MM mm 19 llli VVIN'l'liR,S TALE was chosen this year as the play to be given by the Shakespeare Class.

Under the direction of Mr. Winter, the classes have achieved a degree of success which is really remarkable, when one considers the difliculty of pro- ducing these plays, especially with high school students. The plays which have been presented at Berkeley High from 1912 to 1927 are: The VVinter's Tale, Act IV, Scene 3: A hlidsummer Night's Dream, As You Like lt, The Winter's Talef' Twelfth Night, Romeo and Julietfl Hamlet, The Merchant of Venice, The Tem- pest.

To make the usual statement, and say that it was one of the best G. A. plays that has been given would not be an ex- aggeration. The scene of the play is in a fashionable summer hotel. The trysting place, a corner of the lobby, is the magic spot where the pairs of lovers meet. lfveryone laughed when the settee moved as Lancelot edged closer to hear the conversation. There were many mirth-provoking incidents as the suitors were taken one by one from their hiding places. lt all ended hap- pily, and the lobby proved to be a real trysting place. its The Senior Play SHN IOR PLAY CAST So Tins Is I.oNnoN Elinor HL'11llt'llllHIf7 ..............

C. A. lxvafterntwo hard battles, one with :klameda and ' the other with Piedmont. Hayward was defeated easily is QM... and the A. C. A. L. title was won. Nlount Diablo was beaten, but Petaluma proved too much of an obstacle and the Yellowjackets were out of the race after the Petaluma game. Much credit is due Coach lfadie for the Hne team he developed. Vic- tories over Saint lYlary's Frosh and Cal 145's certainly show the caliber of basketball that was played. The support of the student body certainly deserves comment and it was partially due to this support that the team went so far in the championship race. Only four games were lost out of seventeen, so the season may be considered a success. At the close of the practice season 'll'fdgy Farnsworth was elected captain and proved a light- ing and spirited leader. Next year Coach lfadie will be greatly handicapped, as the majority of the squad will be lost through graduation, but with men from the Bees and the few veterans remaining a good team may result. llndliiviidualls ,vt- ' .xP'iux1N lfnov F.-xRNswoR'r11, a graduate of last year-'s B 'li 19 team, was a mainsta on both offensive and defensive.

Stan VValburg held down the other forward position. He was out last year with injuries but is an experienced player. Stan proved his worth with his excellent shooting and fine passwork and it will be hard to fill his place next season. Bob Fisher, a new man at Berkeley, played center. His height and passwork furnished material help to the Yellowjackets. He also graduates before next season. Andy Steen made it very difficult for any opponents to work the ball into the hole and prevented many baskets. His fighting spirit and good play will be missed next season. Bill Jackson of last year's Bees played a fine game at forward when l i BASKETBALL SQUAD called on and helped make Berkeley's reserve strength what it was. He also graduates. Oscar Freitag, another one from the Bees, held up a forward position to a good advantage. His speed and accurate shooting will be missed next season. Julius Freitag upheld Captain Farnsworth's place well when called on. He was a hard man to beat on the defensive, and his graduation leaves an- other gap. Bob Bartlett, a veteran from last year, did not seem to hit his full stride until late in the season. He Was a valuable man, however, and will be sorely missed next year. The Games BERKELEY 22-FRIEMONT 7 Showing line prospects for the season, Berkeley won its lirst game by a good margin. Walburg, Fisher, and Oscy Freitag played well for the Yellowjackets. Coach Eadie used his entire squad, and got a line on all the material. I BQRKELEY l6-ALUMNI 31 Going down with a hard light, the Yellowjackets lost their second game to a strong Alumni quintet. Coach Eadie started the combination of Mor- ris and Walburg, forwardsg Fisher, center, and Farnsworth and Bartlett, guards. Walburg showed his prowess in the shooting line by garnering nine points. BLJRKELIQY 16-UN1vERs1'rY Hiou 12 Playing in poor form, the Yellowjackets wrested a rough game from the Cubs.

At first the game promised to be close, hut Berkeley then took on an imposing lead and led the rest of the fray. Coach lfadie again used his second string to a good advantage, although they could not score as well as the first. BASKETBALL INDIVIDUALS Bukkuuar 31-ST. MARY's FRosH 22 Playing in the same line style that gained them their first two league games, the Yellowjackets beat the Oakland Collegians. This victory makes Berkeley a favorite for some honors, as the Oakland team has conquered both California and Stanford freshman aggregations. BIQRKICLI-XY 15-P11zm1oN'1' 19 Handicapped by a strange court, the Yellowjackets were defeated by Piedmont in a hard-fought game. Berkeley started out well, but a third quarter drive of the Highlanders became an unsurmountable obstacle, and the Red and Gold could not overcome the lead in a last-minute rally. BiaRk1cLL:Y 32-ALAMEDA 15 Playing in their best style, the Yellowjackets easily defeated the Islanders to win the Division A championship. The Nludhens were powerless to score, as their shooting was for the most part confined to long shots. On the other hand the line teamwork of the Yellowjackets got the ball in the hole for easy shots. Nlorris, VValburg, Fisher, Captain Farnsworth, and Steen played well for the winners. B14:Rkia1.14:Y 27-HAYWARD 8 Berkeley again showed power in overwhelming the Farmers to gain the county championship. The Yellowjackets led all the way and their close guarding kept down the Hayward score. Morris and Fisher led the Berke- ley scoring. Coach Fadie again used his second string, which gained much experience under fire. Bickki-:1.m' 29-lNl0IFN'l' IDIABLO 9 'lihe Red and Gold quintet advanced another step toward state honors by decisively beating the Mount Diablo cagers. Berkeley's close guarding again held down the opponents' score, while good teamwork ran up the score. Captain Farnsworth, Walbtirg, and lVlorris played well for the Yellowjackets. BiaRkicI.1':Y l2-PETALUMA 15 All our chances for a state championship were blasted by the lfgg City hoopsters, who won a close game on their own court. The Yellowjackets were clearly off form and could not function right on the strange court. Berkeley fought hard to overcome an ll to 5 lead in the second half but was unable to overtake the northerners. Special credit is due Captain Farnsworth, who played his best although hampered by illness. Bartlett, Fisher, Norris, and VValburg also played line games for Berkeley. Class B SEASON r.dwtE,F wwf HIS year Coach Parker's 130-pound squad overcame what seemed to be a Jinx for all Berkeley 130-pound basketball teams by winning the North Coast championship, which is the farthest they can go in state competition. They not 5 W only won the championship, but did it so decisively there M'!Q,Wf was no doubt of the result. The final game with San Jose showed Berkeley in top-notch form. Getting off to a slow start, the Bees lost their first game, but from that time on Coach Parker brought them along in fine style. They lost only one other game, which was with the University of California lightweights. Although confronted with the problem of developing a team around the one veteran who returned from last year's squad, Coach Parker accom- plished wonders. This year's squad was one of the fastest well-drilled squads ever to represent Berkeley. The idea of team play was certainly dem- onstrated, and this, along with a well-developed group of substitutes, was the reason the team won the championship. From the spectator's point of view, the spirit shown by the entire squad was remarkable. This year's team did not know the meaning of slowing up. Many times it came from behind to cop the long end of the score. The l30's deserve all the credit possible, as they have done what 130 squads for the past four years have been unable to accomplish. x ll' INDIVIDUALS Captain George Fiehn, who played forward, the one remaining veteran from last year's squad, was one of the outstanding players. Coach Parker built his team around this stocky forward, who proved to be a star both offensively and defensively. He graduates this term. lveston Gorman, Fiehn's runnin mate, was one of the best defensive g s players on the team. At the start of the season Wes was one of the showing lights. He accounted for many needed points. Wes also graduates. Alrik Soderman, center, proved to be one of the best players on the Class B teams at Berkeley. Each game found him a little better. By the end of the season he Was one of the best shots on the squad and also a wonderful defensive player. He was high-point man in many games. He will be here for next year's team. Harvey Brown, the running guard, had a natural eye for the basket. lNlany times he dropped the ball through the hoop from difficult angles to bring needed points to Berkeley. He developed a lot of fight toward the K M- . Ln I CLASS B SQUAD end ofthe season, and was at his best in the San Jose game. Hod will be back for next yearls team. Cierald Neasham, the standing guard, supplied the fight of the team. Never did he quit, and he was always keeping the spirit of his team mates up. Besides this, Jerry was one of the best defensive players to play for a Class B team at Berkeley. He will be eligible next year. John Carbone was one of the best players on the team. He played for- ward and running guard, substituting for both. He was brought along slowly, but in the last three championship games he showed his worth. He played three-fourths of these and was high scorer in all. He will be back next year. Hiroshi Yamamato, Lewis Crosby, Edwin Rocha, Bruno hlynthi, Arthur Swenson, George Hill, and Delbert Young were capable substi- tutes whom Coach Parker used to good advantage throughout the season.

Coach Jennings was delayed in getting a line on his men by wet grounds and could not get things rolling smoothly until late in the season. The first game was lost and from then on the team played rather erratic base- ball. As the crucial time grew near, however, the boys seemed to get into form and Won a majority of the games. lNIuch credit must be given Coaches Jennings and Erickson for the fine team they finally turned out. Although Alameda won the second game by a margin that made Berke- ley's first victory look like a freak, the boys came back and deserve credit for their fine showing. Next season's prospects are handicapped by grad- uation of many from this season's aggregation, but it is expected that new material will step up to take their places. Captain Gill, Nlattos, Ambrose. and Freitag have all finished their ball playing at Berkeley High. lNDIVIDl'.X1.S Captain Harold Gill, elected just before the first A. C. A. l.. encounter. was one of the most valuable men on the team. A veteran of last year's aggregation, he was moved from the infield to left held. His hitting and fielding will be missed next season. Francis La Veque, another player from last year, held down the catch- er's position. He is a good hitter and made very few errors. His ex- perience and ability will be valuable next year. Fernando Ambrose, who played center field last year, held down the same position. His speed and hitting ability will be missed next season. YValter Peacock was made over from a twirler to an outfielder, and was used in this capacity in several games. Clifford hlattos, another veteran, played first base and pitched dur- ing the season. His all-round ability will be missed next season. Oscar Freitag held down second base, and put his last season's ex- perience to good use. He was a good hitter, and his speed and fielding will be a loss to our next season's hopes. George lfiehn was shifted to the infield this season and held down third base in a fine manner. Although not a strong hitter, his fielding ability made him a very valuable man. iigiizl-iniliii-iiiif' ' '-if-f-lv' :fi -4 ' BASEBALL SQUAD George Bernard played in the outfield in most of the games. His consistent playing was instrumental in many of Berkeley's victories. He will he lost through graduation. Lefty Oliver, a new man in a Berkeley uniform, bore the brunt of the pitching work this season. His cool head and control took the Yellow- jackets out of many a hole. Melvin Nickerson was Berkeley's utility man and he was always ready when called on. His experience from last year made him a very valuable man to have, and he served well in many games. James Kane held down the initial sack this year. His playing was always of the best, and he should see service again next term. Tulla hlassueco, a new man on the team, stepped into the shortstop position and held it all season. His good hitting and fielding will he very valuable to next year's team. The Games BERKELEY 1-ROOSEVELT 9 After only two days of practice, the Yellowjacket nine took a defeat from the East Oakland aggregation. Nlany men were used in an endeavor to get a line on prospects. BL:RKI51.EY 13-R1c1moND 2 Showing better form, the B. H. S. team handed the Oil City boys a lacing. Coach Jennings had a better line on his men and all positions were well guarded. Oliver, a new pitcher, was one of the finds of this game. BIQRKELEY 6-MIssIoN 3 The Yellowjackets emerged victorious from a listless game by the count of 6-3. The transbay boys did not furnish much opposition. and home runs by Ambrose and Tulla tucked the game away for Berkeley. BICRKICLIEY 3-S. F. Po1,Y 3 In their fourth game of the season the B. H.

BICRKELIEY 4-MCCLYMONDS 3 ln a hard-fought tussle the Yellowjackets won their first game from hlcClymonds. Although playing on a strange diamond, Berkeley was able to win easily. The team functioned well, less errors being made in the field, and the batting was good. BICRKIZLIEY 2-OAKLAND Tlccn 4 Playing a poor game, the Yellowiackets were defeated by the Oakland nine. .VX home run with the bases full gave Tech their lead, and Berkeley's efforts netted them only two runs.

Oliver pitched well and the fielding was much improved. Massucco, a new man this year, helped with his good hitting and fielding. BERKELEY 2-AI..-XMEDA O Berkeleyls hopes for a championship baseball team were raised when the Yellowjaekets took their first league game from the hludhens. Berke- ley scored in the first inning and again in the eighth. hlattos pitched fine ball for the Yellow-iackets and was supported well by his teammates. Klas- succo, the hard hitting shortstop, accounted for both tallies. BLRKELEY 7-ST. M.-xRv's 9 Going into a slump after winning from Alameda, the Yellowjackets were defeated by the Saints. The game was a loosely played affair marked by errors and poor base running. Captain Gill played well, getting three hits, one a home run. B1-:Rk1a1.RY -l--AI.AMIiI7:X 8 Surprised by a renovated Alameda team, the Berkeley bat wielders were taken into camp on the latter's diamond. Oliver held the hludhens until the fourth inning and gave hlattos, who replaced him, a two-run lead. Alameda then started and six runs were scored before Oliver again tool: the mound. Berkeley tried hard to regain the lead but Alameda quickly stopped all rallies. B12RK1:1.1cY 10-.-XL.-xA11:o.-1 7 The Yellowjackets finally turned the tables on their Fncinal rivals by beating them on their own diamond, thus winning the first series in three years. The game was closely contested, though Berkeley had the advantage throughout the game. Cliff hlattos pitched himself in and out of several holes, but the hitting of his teammates was too much for the hludhens. Captain Harold Gill played a fine game at his old position of third base. SECOND TE.-XM A second team was again organized this year, and was coached by Nlr. Gross. Several games were scheduled, and, although only one victory was chalked up, some hard-fought games resulted. TRACK SQUAD Track SEASON Q ITII only the State meet left on the schedule, it is safe to say 5 that this year's track team has had an exceptionally good ig HI Q-9 season The team won more than its share of meets and ' sh ,.,,' 9 ' , ' ,iw showed some good material. Starting with a good sprinkling of veterans, Coach X9 ke? Lamar brought them up to the peak of their condition. New men had to be developed to take the places of the stars who graduated last year. These new men have proved to be equally as good if not better than their predecessors. The season this year has been a little longer than usual. Coach Lamar was handicapped in getting off to a fast start by the bad weather. The first weeks of practice were practice in theory only because of the rain. This, of course, meant a slow start for the Red and Gold performers, and it was thought it might take them some time to develop. However, they improved with each meet until, as we go to press, they bid fair to make themselves felt in the state meet. The team itself is a well-balanced organization, with lots of spirit. The boys themselves have shown the ability and interest that produces the teams Berkeley High is noted for. The boys who accounted for the most points during the season are Bill Barlow, Blake Claggett, Kenneth Carlsen, l.eon- ard Churchill, and Newell Clement. INDIVIDLYXLS Captain Newell Clement was almost always sure of a first place in the high jump. He was very consistent around 5 feet 10 inches. Being a quiet and dependable leader, he always set a good example. 'fNewie graduates. Bill Barlow, a veteran sprinter, was again on the job. He took firsts in nearly all the meets, and was an outstanding star. He also took points in the shot and discus. George Gastman was one of the men Coach Lamar developed. His forte was the 880, although he also ran the mile and high hurdles. leonard Churchill, one of Berkeley's milers, was probably the outstand- ing runner in this event. Although a midget, his performances were remark- able, as he was another new man this year. VVaino Landell, a senior, shared Churchill's honors in the mile. The two were about even in regard to time and performances. Waiiio also turned in some good times in the 880. Blake Claggett, a scrub, proved to be the discovery of the year. He was one of the best discus men, and handled the shot with good success. He also captured digits in the broad jump and high hurdles. Kenneth Carlsen was another of Berkeley's versatile athletes. He ran the 100-yard dash in fine style, usually taking hrst or second. He also was a consistent winner in the broad jump. Kenny garnered places in the javelin many times. He is a senior. Dick blansell was usually sure of a second in the broad jump and a place in the high jump. Dick was just another of Coach I,2UT1Z'll'iS finds. He will receive his diploma this year. Don Dart, last year's Class B sprinter, was a good man in the hurdles. as he could be counted on to get a place. He also ran the sprints with fair success. He, too, graduates. Jack Davis, another sprinter, ran both the 100 and the 220. The latter proved to be his best event. Although very short, he had a world of speed. Jack is a senior, so will be lost for next year. Russ Bacon, a pole vaulter of no mean ability, was right up there in height, and also in the way of points. Russ was always a good bet. He, too, will not be back. Chris Nlangles was the outstanding Class B runner. He was very fast and seldom saw anyone's heels in a race. It was a rare occasion when he did not break the tape in the 50 and the 100-yard dashes. NCJVIL1 Ii M lam' Because of unfavorable weather, the Novice track meet was held on a temporary track. blany future stars were uncovered. The new men who showed promise were Churchill, Hakkinen, blansell, Claggett, lfdwards, and biangles. lN'l'ICRC'I.ASS lNTI2I2T The seniors won the annual lnterclass meet with a score of 120 5-6 points. The middlers were next with S5 5-6, while the scrubs were last with 63 1-3. Last year's track veterans turned in the first places and best time records. fJ.XK1.:XND 'TICCII Berkeley scored a victory in her first meet by a score of 7-f'Q to 3812. Barlow, Donnell, Carlsen, and Churchill turned in fine performances for the Red and Gold. while Levi was the whole team for Tech. Carlsen threw the javelin 143 feet, which was excellent for an early meet. S.xlx'r lXT.'XRY'S Pillars Offering little in the way of opposition, Saint blary's lost to Berkeley by the score of 93 to 14. Carlsen was high point man with two firsts. blangles also garnered ten points. Clement's jump of 5 feet 11 inches in the high jump showed him to be in good form.

Dobbs won first in the mile and 880. while VVilliams won the high jump by the remarkable leap of 6 feet l inch. Carlsen of Berkeley won the broadjump with a leap of 2l feet 3 inches. Bicakicriav-RicimoNn-OAKLAND Again showing great strength, Berkeley won the triangular meet with 90 points. Richmond was second with 26 and Oakland third with 25. Ilunter, Oaklandls husky sprinter, and Barlow had two great battles in the sprints. llunter won the 100 and he and Barlow tied in the 150-yard dash. Donnell, Claggett, and Carlsen of Berkeley and Olsen of Richmond all turned in fine performances. A. C. A. L. ln a steady rain Berkeley out-scored Piedmont and Alameda, 1015 to Xljaj and 51. No good times were turned in, but Barlow, Claggett and Clement, who was elected captain, proved their worth by scoring their share of points. bloran of Piedmont turned in some fine performances. BICRKICIEY-RICIIMOND-ROOSEVELT This meet gave Berkeley's reserves a chance to shine as is shown by the score: Berkeley 65, Roosevelt 39, and Richmond 36. Olsen's time of 4 minutes 47 2-5 seconds in the mile was remarkable. Moose Rowland returned to win two firsts for Berkeley. SANTA CRUZ Berkeley's first defeat was at the hands of Santa Cruz by the score of 1015 to 971172. The Class B events proved Berkeley's downfall. Sheehy broke a record in the 440 when he covered the distance in 52 seconds. Barlow, Claggett, Dart, and Kenward were the big point earners. Noifrn CoAs'1' MIa14:'1' Although winning only one first place, Berkeley High won the N. C. C. l. lf. by placing men in seven events, and scoring 18 points.

This is clearly shown by the new records that were established this term, and by the results of the meets. Previous to the time that the OLLA PODRIDA went to press the team had a perfect record with overwhelming victories over several Transbay teams. Coach Eadie has high hopes of annexing the North Coast title this year. The meet is to be held at Sutro Baths in San Francisco. Although the men who will graduate before next season car- ried the greater part of the work, Coach Eadie, with an eye to the future, has developed men who will be on next year's squad. Captain Frank Walton was the most valuable man to his team this year. During his career as a swimmer at Berkeley High, Frank has estab- lished records in the 50, the 100 and the 220 yard free style events and the 50 yard back stroke event. Frank was also anchor man on the relay team that holds the school record. pgg-'W954p9f3M,AQ3 lit 4 ttf! 1 f 'xJi ',:21f - 'lll 19 if tiisfkgf 'iff 2 5 . 1Nn1v1ni1x1,s .ixP'11-UN FRANK XV.-XLTON, a veteran of two seasons, was a consistent point getter in the 50 and the 100 yard free style events, and was anchor man on the relay team. Frank could also be counted on for a first place in the 220 yard free stylc event and the 50 yard hack stroke event, if necessary. He graduates before another season and will leave a vacancy that will be hard to fill. Fred Berry was manager of the team. A large part of the success may be attributed to his el'l'iciency. Fred is a high senior and graduates in June. lNIention must he made of the service rendered by Richard Newmeyer, Jack Dempsey, Pendleton Noyes, Stewart Patterson, VVillard Retelle, and Richard lVlcCarthy for the efficient way in which they olliciated at the various meets. Duncan hlacdonald was the best breast stroke man Berkeley has had for some time. Duncan graduates in December, and his place will be hard to fill next season. Rad Lyon swam the 440 yard and the 220 yard free style events. He swam the former in exceptionally fast time. Being a senior, he will I10t be on the team next term. SWIMMING SQUAD Hill Lambert was a consistent point getter in the back stroke. Hill swam on the relay team, and his place will be hard to fill next term. Nelson Bockus was a fast man in the sprints, placing second only to Walton. He also swam a fast lap for the relay team. Bockus is a senior and will be missed next season. Barney Allen was a plunger of no mean ability. He has another year at B. H. S. and he should be one of the squad's consistent point getters. VVard Woods was a good man in the 220 and the 440 yard free style events, and also swam on the relay team. Ward was a consistent point getter and his loss will be keenly felt. Donald lWcCarthy, the diminutive plunger, has established some records that will be hard to beat. Donald was also a point getter in the 220 and in the diving. Donald is a senior. Gordon Miller was a diver of no mean ability. He is a senior and will be missed next year. John McCarthy was a new man on the squad this term. He swam in the 50 and the 150 yard Class B events. He will be with us next term. Bruce Wallace was Berkeleyls most capable diver. This is his last season here. Laurie Smith was a fast man in the Class B events. Laurie will be with us next term and ought to make a name for himself. Arden Gray was a consistent point getter in the 50 and the 100 yard free style events. Gray was also a member of the relay team and he will be with us next term. Edward Whittemore was Lambert's team mate in the backstroke and could always be counted on for points. Ed is a senior and his place will be hard to fill next term. Jerry Chain was a diver of no mean ability and could be counted on to do his best. Chain graduates before next season. Jack Basford was a Class B man who swam in the 150 yard event. Bas- ford is a middler and has another year. VVilliam Wilke, Class B 50 yard free style man, always did his part in scoring for the team. Wilke is a middler and has another season. James MacKay was a good Class B man, who participated in the plunge. Iim is a middler and will be here next term. Novica MEET The Novice Nleet was featured by the large number of new records made in the following events: the 50 and the 150 Class B, the 220 and the 440, and the 100 yard breast stroke.

Berkeley paddlers captured first in eight of the eleven events. hlacdonald of Berkeley made a poor start in the 100 yard breast stroke but put up a gallant fight only to lose by inches. Frank YValton was high point man of the meet, winning the 50 and the 100 yard free style events and swimming anchor man on the winning relay team. Biakki-:Luv 41-ALYNINI 36 The Alumni were defeated by the Berkeley High tanksters by the close score of 41-36. The result of the meet was in doubt until the relay, which Berkeley won. The winning of this event gave Berkeley the necessary points needed to cinch the meet. Of the eleven events, Berkeley garnered six while the Alumni captured the remaining hve. Frank VValton of Berkeley, who won the 50 and the 100 yard free style events, and who also swam on the winning relay team, was high point man.

BLLRKIQLI-:Y 65-Low1f:1.1, 31 'lihe Berkeley mermen defeated the Lowell tanksters in their second engagement 65-31. The Lowell boys were greatly handicapped because of the fresh water. This was especially true in the plunge where the Lowell plungers depended upon the salt water to keep them afloat. As the score indi- cates, the meet was very onesided, Berkeley taking nine of the eleven events. VVoods captured first individual honors, taking a first place in the 220 and the 440 yard events, and swimming on the winning relay team. blac- donald was second, taking first in the 100 yard breast stroke and the 50 yard back stroke. This was lN1acdonald's first attempt at the back stroke and he did well in turning in a time of 36 Hat. BICRKIELICY 66-GAL1L1f:o 29 Gathering eight first, seven second, and five third places, the Red and Gold mermen decisively out-classed the Galileo tanksters. Captain Frank Walton was high point man, swimming the 100 and the 220 yard free style events. ln the latter event, Waltoii established a new school record, swimming the eight and one-half laps in the fast time of 2:32 3-10. Rad Lyon defeated De Silva in the 440 by inches, the time being 6:10. Prior to the meet, the squad elected Frank Waltrmn captain. Frank is a capable leader and swimmer and has established many records at Berkeley lligh School. B ISRK li LICY 76-TAMA I,P.1xis 19 Once more displaying championship calibre, the Red and Gold mermen easily defeated the Tamalpais swimmers, 76-19. Berkeley captured nine of the eleven events, lowering the 150 yard Class B event by inches and being disqualified in the relay race. Captain VValton and VVoods were the individual bright lights of the meet. 1Valton broke the existing records in the 50 and the 100 yard free style events, while VVoods set a new mark in the 440 yard free style event. TENNIS SQUAD 'lfennis ,Nw WM IIIS year under Coach Le Tendre, the Berkeley High Tennis team has come along most successfully. The team is the best Berkeley High has had for a long time. This, coupled with the fact that all the games have been played at home, except one, has made the season a very satisfactory one. The .ERQQ7 EQWL new courts have proved to be very good, for all the teams rushed to play on them. The material this year has been exceptional. The players all seem to be evenly matched. Because of this fact, the ranking has changed a good deal. However, as we go to press, the players are ranked in order of their ability. First ranking is Harvey Derne, then Jack Shieck, Herschal Conkle, Frank Schoonover, Miller Hotchkiss, Donald Ross, and William VVentworth. Derne is far and away the best man. He has a nice serve, good strokes and a steady head, with lots of fight. He covers the court well. Derne graduates this year. Shieck is a High 10, who has won his games steadily. He is rather inconsistent at times but has proved his worth. Scoonover has a world of talent, and as he is only a Low ll bids fair to be a member of next year's squad. Ross also shows great promise, as he is only a High 10 and looks like a coming star. Hotchkiss and Wentworth gave all members of the squad a good fight, and are both good players. I NTRA-MURAL TEAMS lntra-Mural Sports YW rw 1? IIIS year, under the supervision of Coach Al Parker, Director of lntra-Mural Athletics, the boys of Berkeley High are getting a great deal of enjoyment and benefit out of the program. The sports that are being played this year are 5 s1 tennis and playground baseball. The competition is be- YQAQJQY E?'V,fWf tween advisories, and is bringing out some keen rivalry. Tennis has just started as this article goes to press. A good turn out of twenty advisories is on hand. This gives the boys a chance to develop, and to get into the swing of athletics around school. As no ranking players of the Tennis squad are eligible for inter-advisory play, many even matches are being played, which no doubt will bring out some future stars. Any boy who wished to take part signed up, making a turn-out of about sixty students. The title is decided by elimination. Dave Kelly is the Senior manager in charge. Inter-advisory baseball is well started. Already some keen competition has developed. Each advisory has a team, thus giving about 500 boys a chance to participate. Harold Kay is the senior manager, and is having a hard time to keep up with the interest shown. Because of lack of space, the title will be settled by elimination. This prevents very many games being played, but is unavoidable. Girlsl Athletic Association The high school of today is the starting point of a wonderful race of girls. The goal of this race is represented by abundant health and the joy of living. Every girl knows, and particularly those interested in athletics, that there is no better place to train for the race than in high school. Every term many girls 'ldiscovern the Girls' Ath- letic Association and realize what a splendid or- ganization it is in helping girls to start the race unhandicapped. This semester has proved to be a success in every way. Much co-operation has been shown, particularly in the preparation for the annual G. A. A. Cabaret, which was held in hlayg and we only hope that next term more girls will become members of the Girls' Athletic Association. jlflaix Pla'rIeRsoN. ARCHERY Archery is a comparatively new sport at Berkeley High, having been first offered as a sport in the fall season of 1925. Over thirty girls turned out for it this term and the number is expected to increase. Two new targets, six new bows, and a much-needed back stop have been added to the last year's equip- ment. Miss Harwood, the coach, and Virginia Moles, the head of arch- ery, planned a very interesting season. Probably the most import- ant event that was planned was L'Bonarro, a game not unlike golf, to be played on Bonarro field at Mills College. The close of the archery season is marked by the tournament in which all the straightest shooting Dianas compete. SWIMMING e Swimming has been a sport ever since Berkeley High has had a swimming pool. Swimming surely gains in popularity each season. During the regular class and in after school classes every girl is given a chance to learn how to swim. Such strokes as the side- stroke, back-stroke, racing-stroke, crawl, trudgeon and breast-stroke are taught. Ruth Cawthorne has been head of the sport this term. At the end of each semester it is customary to have an interclass meet in which the more advanced girls participate. Under lVIiss Cherryls careful teaching many girls have turned out to be excellent swimmers. There is very promising material for the meet this term, and the events will be the same as in previous terms with the addition of the trudgeon stroke for form. This meet will afford great amusement for the swimmers as well as the audience as there are to be many unusual races and events. r DANCING This semester the beginning and advanced dancing classes have been meeting regularly on Nlonday and VVednesday afternoons under the direction of bliss Hayes and lNlarion Gorrill, who is head of dancing. A large number of girls have turned out for the two classes. lNIost of the work during the term was spent in preparation for the Dance Drama presented in the auditorium on May 4. This Dance Drama is an annual affair given only during the spring term at Berkeley High School. The program was divided into three parts: the hrst consisted of a series of solo and group dances: the second part was made up of a group of comedy sketches, and the last was the clraniatilation in dancing of the old fairy tale The Sleeping Beauty. This year the girls have put more thought and trouble than here-to-fore in the costuming and scenery. Lighting eflects were used to help bring out the moods of the different dances. TENNIS Although this is but the second semester that tennis has been con- sidered a major sport, tennis has proved to be a very popular one. VVith 150 girls signed up, the sport was divided into three classifications instead of two that were used last semester. There is one beginning class for girls who know nothing about tennis, two intermediate for those who have received some instruc- tion, and one advanced class for those who have had experience. Miss lNlorris is coach and Janet Sperry is head of the sport. The winter tournament was completed, this semester, when Jacqueline WVatkins defeated Helen Matthews. The finals for the spring tournament will be played on the Spring Field Day. Some of the stars and high lightsw for this season are Beatrice Plumly, Anna Lynip, Virginia Clark, Marie Barstow, Niary Frances Thelen, Janet Sperry, Harriett Ballard, Ada Mae Block, Mary Sperry and Esther Kelly. OUTING CLUB The Outing Club is one of the most active and far-reaching 'fee - branches of the Girls' Athletic As- sociation. It supervises all activi- ties that are not seasonal sports. The vice-president of the G. A. A., Jacqueline Watkins, as head of the Outing Club proved very compe- tent. lNlany skating parties, horse r back rides, and about seventy-five miles of hiking were scheduled for the term. Several excursions were made, such as the one to Angel lsland. which was of educational value in addition to pleasure. The schedule also included a four-day outing to Stinson Beach during the Easter vacation. The activities of the Outing Club are open to all girls, and the club tries to plan hikes that are interestingg to encourage the girls to come out for sports: and to provide a chance for them to become acquainted. The Outing Club has been well supported this term, a successful season has been com- pleted, and a greater interest in the activities has been aroused among the girls. B.-XSKl'I'1'BAI.I. ln order that more time could be given to basketball, this season started two weeks before the fall semester closed. As many girls turned out, it was necessary to have three coaches. Miss lfntz coached the seniors: Miss Tebbe, the mid- dlers: Miss Harwood, the scrubs: and Lillian Desmond was head of basketball. A splendid spirit of co-operation and sportsmanship was shown at all of the games and practices. The first game toward deciding the school championship was played on lfebruary 14, and preceded a schedule in which every team played every other team, which lasted until March 3, when the High Iflevens proved victorious. The L-12's got second place and the H-12's third. Before the spread, the gym faculty played the winners. Nlembers of the winning team are Ada Mae Block, Nancy Burnell, Toshiko Fujii, Lovetta Guskey, Nliriam Kerr, Clara King, Anna Lynip, Iflizabeth Lee, hlildred hlclntire. Theodosia Stephens, Naomi Tingley and Jacqueline VVatkins. VOILICYBALI. By defeating lfdna Husing's 9 Q middler team on hlarch ll, Lillian Desmond's senior team holds the school volley ball championship. This marked the close of the inter- class volley ball tournament which had been in session for two weeks. in which twenty-three teams par- ticipated. lnterclass sports are of interest to every girl who takes the regular gym work, as each girl has a chance to make her team the winning one. The winning team of each gym class meets another winning team of the same grade in the after school tournaments. Finally there is a champion team of each grade. Thus Beatrice Silva's scrub team lost to Edna Husing's middler team, and Lillian Desmond's senior team defeated Edna Husing's team. Members of the winning team are Lillian Desmond, Nlorvyth ble- Queen VVilliams, Julia Petersen, Dorothy Simonds, Dorothy Smith, and lfvelyn lvilson. 1 .Ns this article goes to press, the other interclass spring sport, baseball, is still in progress and it is impossible to say whose team will be the winner. LEADERS' CLASS Leaders' Class is a girls' organization formed by elected girls, two from each gym class, whose purpose is to lead and direct the teams in a friendly Way, and see that they start to play, that equipment is handy, that the teams take the assigned courts, and that umpires are chosen. These are the du- ties of the leaders and they TFT should be carried out through suggestion and personality. The Leaders' Class has been held successfully for four years. It has been a great help to the teachers, and at the same time has developed the spirit of leadership in the members. The officers for this term are: President, Leila Peoples, vice president, Janet Sperry, and secretary, lN1ary Sperry. G. A. A. EXECUTIVE BOARD The members of the G. A. A. Executive Board for this semester were Julia Peterson, Jacqueline Watkins, Kathryn Frickstad, Ruth Cawthorne, Lillian Desmond, Ma- rion Gorrill, hliriam Kerr, Clara King, Anna Lynip, Virginia hloles, Nlildred Scott, Dorothy Smith and Janet Sperry. The membership in- cludes the president, vice-president, and secretary of the G. A. A., the various heads of sports, and the VVIQIQKLY NEWS representative, with Miss Entz as faculty adviser. G. A. A. SKIT This semester the G. A. A. skit coached by bliss Entz, was given before a girls' assembly during the advisory period on January 28, in order to advertise the G. A. A. sports. About forty-five girls took part in the skit, the Eve principal characters being played by Lillian Andersen, First Scrub, Jacqueline VVatkins, Second scrub: Frances VVoolsey, bliddler cousin of First scrub: hlargaret Lamb, First G. A. A. Girl: Julia Petersen, Second G. A. A. Girl. . TRACK Track has always been a popular sport among the girls and this term proved to be no exception to the rule. In the first few practices the girls discovered which event they were best suited forg so for those who liked to run the fifty yard dash the hurdles were offered. Those who could throw went out for the basketball and baseball throws for distance. The other events were the standing and the running broad jump, the high jump, the shot-put, the discus. and the javelin. Under the leadership of Miss Entz and lNfIiriam Kerr practices were held twice a week with great enjoyment. The track meet will be held on the Spring Field Day.
