4 v W, 4 .1- x 4 N. 1 Q A, wt., f 'f '?1?'5'7 ','TV'? PRlNCIPAL'S MESSAGE DEAR AUTOBIOGRAPHY: Supposing you were to sit down this afternoon and write your autobiography, what would you be willing to put into print for all people to see and read? Would your manners, morals, habits, abilities, influences, and friends be such that the story of your life would be an inspiration to others? Would your autobiography become a best seller, or would it be distributed only in the form of complimentary copies, given away by the writer? 0 The world moves forward through the efforts of the individual. No school, city, state, or nation progresses unless the individual progresses first. lf you were to write an autobiography this afternoon, would you be proud of the things which you have done-proud enough to tell about them? Would you be proud of the things you have said-proud enough to say them again in writing? Would you be proud of the friends whom you have chosen-proud enough to write about them? Shall you start writing this story this afternoon? Or-would it be better to wait awhile until you have something worthwhile to say? You, and only you, have the answer!

Those students of a few years past had a good time at Berkeley High. They did all the things we do now. They went out for the teams, they were A.S.B.H.S. prexies, Jacket editors, and partici- pated in all the other activities around school-just as we are now doing. As this year's Senior Class regrets leaving, so did they. Their task was far greater than ours. They went out to wage a war. We enter a world, troubled, but at peace. They did their job. We must do ours- be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they have thus far so nobly advanced. During the war we were all aware of the sacrifices made by the many former Berkeley High School students. Let us hope we shall never forget their heroic service to mankind. They would have agreed that a fitting tribute to them would be the dedication of this Pod-so much a symbol of the best time in all our lives-School Days. The Senior Class and the Pod Staff join together to dedicate this Pod to former students of Berkeley High School who served their country in its greatest time of need. 1 20 7500+ FOREWORD We have often heard it stated that school days are the best days in one's life. Some of us have never wanted to believe that statement, not because we have not enioyed school fimmenselyl, but because if it were true then we who are graduat- ing are leaving behind our future. We have supposedly reached our peak. Those who are not graduating now have but a short time to enjoy the best in life, yet they may have over a half century to live. It seems to me that the happiness and purpose of life should increase with each day and month and year of living. We should get more out of life and enjoy life more when we are eighty than when we have lived but six months or forty years. For some people life does not go that way, or rather, they clo not take life that way. Once they graduate their diplomas gather dust on the wall, their minds close, and their mental growth stops. They go into occupations that require no thought, and soon they become non-thinking human machines. Those people truly had their 'best days' in school. Once it was over, they allowed to remain only the ability to write their names and the memory of their 'best days'. Let us hope that people in that category are in an extremely small minority, for their way is not the way it should be. Graduation is not the end, it is the beginning. We leave school not educated, but prepared to become educated. We leave enioyable days behind, but, if we wish it, there are more and better ones ahead. This foreword is written with one hope: that titty years hence you may look upon this year book not as a symbol of the best days of your life, but as the symbol of the first steps on the ladder of your success.

Most of you are graduating after three years of high school. It has been said that your senior year in high school is one of the happiest years of your life. This could easily be. As you look back over your senior year you recall Spring Day, the Mikado, Then came The Beggar on Horseback and at the end of the term the Senior Dinner and Senior Dance. There are over 500 students in your Senior Class, but you have a class marked not only by quantity, but also by quality. Many of you have distinguished yourselves scholasticallyp others of you have won SE NIORS your letters by participation in athletics, and still others have seen fit to enioy Berkeley High from the B-Hive and the Slope. In future years you probably will look back upon your days at Berkeley High. Upon close observation you will find it was entirely up to you how happy and profitable those days were. To a fine Senior Class I say, Thank you for your co-operation. To you Seniors of '46 Your best- no less!! Pete Irving, President of the Senior Class.

Not the least of these remembrances was your wonderful support of the Board of Control. This term the BOC was in need of help, and you students responded wonderfully by purchasing almost 2,100 Student Body Cords, thus enabling the functions of the Spring Term to be carried out properly. Without your complete cooperation the Spring Term BOC would have fared badly. The most important factor in making the Spring Term a success was teamwork-teamwork be- Pres.-Nick Veliotes Sec.-Bev Campbell Treas.-Jerry McCue G.A.A.

Teamvgork is essential wherever you are, and in whatever you do. On the field of play, in the classroom, and in life, where success is found, invariably also is found that tendency to pull together and to work together as a unit. Good luck to next year's BOC, and with the students giving it their full support, as l know they will, it can have only good luck! I want you to know that it has been an honor and a privilege to serve as your president. Thank you and goodbye. Nick Veliotes. Vice-Pres.-Dave lventosch Jacket Editor-Joan Powers h G.A.

As the years go on it shall more and more express the full meaning of our motto, Friendship and Service. This organization has really extended a helping hand to all girls in our school this past term. The initial event sponsored by the GA was the Freshman Reception for all girls new to Berkeley High. Talented sophomores, juniors and seniors had the new girls sitting on the edges of their chairs loudly applauding the miniature variety show. March 8, better known as LADIES' DAY, was the first of its kind and featured the first all-girl rally in the history of our school. Culminating the whole day was the first completely sold-out dance in nine years as well as the first BELLE TAKES BEAU dance for many a moon. May Day saw a flower-bedecked cafeteria, a delicious dinner and fun for all the girls who came to the semi-annual Girls' Association Dinner. Our Senior Farewell was a real tribute to the high senior girls and provided a wonderful op- portunity for an assembly of iust high senior girls. Fun, fellowship and good times high-lighted this term. Now I want to express my appreciation to YOU girls who have really joined in and worked to- gether to make this term a term to remain long in all our memories. We are tradition makers!! Another big thank you goes to Miss Kinell, whose friendly advice has benefited us all. To my fellow officers, Dot Hardie, Helen Mari- noni, Sally Grant, Peggy Young, and Jean Beach, goes my sincere gratitude for their hard work and close cooperation. My biggest honor has been being your presi- dent and I will remember all of you and the great times we have had during the Spring Term of '46. Cause '46 was the year that the G.A. really spread cheer!!! Good luck, always, your friend, Mary Meadows, President of the BHS Girls' Association Spring, 1946.

They also cooperated with the Berke- ley Red Cross in sending speakers to address com- munity groups. Two evening Town Meetings were held at the Y.M.C.A. that attracted much com- munity service. Programs were prepared for the l Kiwanis Club and for monthly meetings of the American Legion. A panel featuring the Elemen- tary School Conference was held at the Cragmont School. Members of the Bureau participated in the annual Public Speaking Contestsp Leon Rimov for the American Legion, Irene Sawyer for the Post-Enquirer and Antoinette Robinson for the Na- tive Sons of the Golden West.

The fifty-five junior and senior students interested in debating and discussion were led by President Samm Axtell, Vice-President Gerrit Vander Ende, Secretary-Treasurer Shirley Broderick, Commis- sioner-of-Programs Marc Gittelsohn, and Sponsor Miss Coffin. Besides weekly meetings the Forum members presented two nation-wide radio programs over CBS for the Columbia School of the Air. The first subject was Our Place in the Pacific . The six participants did so well that the Forum was asked to give another panel on The Reconstruction of Europe .

Several Forum members competed in oratorical contests and won first places in the local American Legion contest and the Sons and Daughters of the Golden West contest. Besides having debates among themselves, the Forum also sponsored the interscholastic debates with Oakland High School on the question Re solved: that Labor Unions be Regulated by the Government. As the Forum feels that a debate is a search for the truth, not for a trophy, there were no decisions on the two well-presented debates The semi-annual picnic helped to put a fine fin ish to an outstanding term of Forum activities. Samm Axtell, President. HONOR SOCIETY This year has been another successful one for the Honor Society. Although there were only about two hundred members of the organization during the past term, they upheld the fine standards of the society and rendered many services to the school. As in previous years Honor Society coaches, who help those students having difficulty with certain subiects, have given invaluable aid to both teacher and student. The Honor Society is iustifiably proud of this service. The sale of Yellowiacket stickers was again successfully sponsored by the Society. Members of the Honor Society were selected for various duties in connection with Pod sales. Society members are found in almost all school activities, the Board of Control, the Rally Com- mittee, Senior Friends, Girls' Association, Girls' Athletic Association, Pod , Jacket , various athletic teams, and world. numerous clubs. The Honor Society looks forward to the future, the years in which it can continue rendering service to Berkeley High School. The members of the Honor So- ciety look forward to the years when they can continue offering their services-to their community and to the Kirby Moulton, President.

Tying for first place in a close race, our Yellow- jacket basketball squad brought home another championship for B.H.S. This was a good way to start our spring sport season off right. The powerful and always dependable swim team once more this year went through all A.C.A.L. competition to unquestionably take the League title. After a lay-oFf during the war years, golf has reappeared at B.H.S. The team's inexperienced but willing members showed up fairly well in competition, and are a promising squad for next season's meets. Our tennis team has once more stroked its way into the A.C.A.L. championship, very ably carry- ing on the perfect record of last season. It was definitely the most powerful team in the League this year. The Berkeley baseball team, now coached by Fred Moffett, one the whole was a good, strong team and pressed the rest of the League hard, although it was weak at the plate. The Jacket track team, again under the able guidance of Maior Lamar, showed only fair abil- ity this season, but tried hard and so did well in the A.C.A.L. finals. All in all the students of Berkeley High can be proud of their athletic teams. They have added much to the prestige of our high school by bring- ing home more than their share of championships. being l l l BLOCK B SOCIETY Top row, left to right: John Dixon, Jack Marchetti, Alex Turner, Pete lrving, Don Brunk, Walt Baxter, Bruno Andrina, Gus Platias, Eddie Leneve, Bob Wallin, Dick Bennett, Spud Loomis, Hugh Bankston.

They not only tied for first place, but placed the only unanimous choice of an A.C.A.L. player on the all-county team. Ken Cameron also broke the league record for individual scoring and was chosen on the East Bay all-star team. Coach Jack Eadie built a team which went through the first round undefeated. Something snapped, the team lost the next three, our team- work was gone. Mr. Le Tendre gave the team a pep talk iust before the Richmond game. Evidently he had found our trouble, for he, together with Mr. Eadie, sent the team back determined to win. B BASKETBALL The Berkeley High basketball team won the next and final three to insure a tie for first place honors. For over twenty years Coach Jack Eadie has taught the basketball team teamwork and co- operation. The Berkeley High team has always been tough to defeat. Every time they take a first or second place standing Coach Jack Eadie de- serves most of the credit. The B basketball team coached by Elgin Erick- son has followed in the footsteps of the A team, sometimes better, sometimes worse. They have always meant tough competition for any team. Although they didn't reach the top this season, they were in there fighting all the way. VARSITY BASKETBALL lAi Top row: Elmer Grunland, El Williams, Tom Adams, Hal Nachtrieb, Ray Davis, Ted Bell.

TRACK The Jacket track team, once more under the able direction of Maior Lamar, tried hard, but did not have the experience or power to make a good showing this season. In our first meet, against Albany, we won eas- ily by a score of 87 to 26. The Jacket's next meet, also against one of the weaker teams in the league, was won by the narrow margin of five points. The meet was close all the way, with the score tied at 54 all with only the relay to be run off. The Berkeley team of Cruikshank, McLeod, Owens, and Greenleaf won the relay and the meet. In Berkeley's third meet the powerful Richmond Oilers walked away from the Jackets with an 8'l to 32 score. Our meet with the California School of the Deaf was arranged mainly to give the re- serves a chance to show what they could do. We lost this meet, 64V2 to 40W. The Jackets dropped their third meet of the season to their arch rival, Piedmont, 66 to 47. Berkeley's weakness seems to be in the field events. Don Brunk, Bob Runser, and Jeff,Dodson took firsts in the high hurdles, the 880-yard run, and the mile, respectively. In the final league meet of the year, Berkeley's squad was able to garner 21M points. In the 120- yard high hurdles Don Brunk took fourth. Bob Runser also captured a fourth in the 880-yard run a short time later. Pete Falconer was the only Berkeley man to place in more than one event. He gained a fifth in the 200-yard low hurdles and the high jump, and was on the fourth place relay team. In one of the closest and most exciting races of the meet, Jeff Dodson was narrowly edged out by El Cerrito's Ken Butler in the mile. Paul Dixon took a second in the high iump, and Bob Culp the same place in the pole vault. Berkeley's relay team of Cruikshank, McLeod, Greenleaf, and Owens won a fourth to complete the Jacket scoring for a fifth in the ACAL championships. The Berkeley B team, also, did not do too well this season. Handicapped by having a small squad, they were able to win only two meets of the six they entered. In the ACAL finals they took seventh.

The Berkeley squad has made another excellent record in decisively downing all of their oppo- nents. Most of the Jacket team had had experience on the varsity the year before, and this was one of the deciding factors in their success. Peter Irving played perfect tennis all season in the first singles position. Just behind him was Louis Rhodes, who also played good, steady ten- nis. Charles Cochrane in holding down the third G O L F Golf has again returned to Berkeley High after TE being inactive throughout the war. Due to inex- perience the team was able to win only a few points during the season. The number one man on the team was Bill Rieger. The other five members were Gordon Wilks, Tom Rieger, Charles Wolf, Pat Gallagher, and Jack Jacoby. All of them except Bill Rieger EAM singles post always played a good game. Kirby Moulton and David Weaver, who filled the re- maining singles positions, by playing consistently good tennis did a swell job for the squad. Playing first doubles on the Berkeley squad were Jim Schafer and Mort McDonald. The second doubles team was Dick Miller and Bob Gaw. Both of these teams, by their good, reliable tennis, did much in bringing another tennis championship to Berkeley High. AM will return next season to form an experienced team which should do much better. The other members in A.C.A.L. competition are El Cerrito, Alameda, and Richmond. Good luck to the return of Golf at B.H.S., and let's hope that our future teams will be the envy of the League.

A AND B SWIMMING Berkeley High's swimming team coached by Frank Gross has always been tops and has rarely lost the league title. Our swimming team has met almost all high schools in the East Bay, they have even downed the California University's B team, taking all first places except the diving. The excellent diving and back stroke of high senior Dick Ready has been one of the team's mainstays. Art Sueltz, Jim Harrington, Warren Deverel, and Herb Schulz are ever-present in gathering points for their team. Berkeley's swimming team has defeated Aca- lanes, California, Lowell, and the alumni, in their practice games. Berkeley High has its own swimming pool, and swimming is expressed as one of the best all- around exercises. When the swimming started at Berkeley High in 1929, Alameda won the title for the next four years. Since 1933 Berkeley High has not lost an A.C.A.L. title. Every member of the swimming team is outstanding in his own field, in fact, so far the relay team has not been defeated in 1946. One of the most outstanding events of the season was the defeat handed to the Olympic Club Juniors. The Olympic Club was favored to take every event as they always have in previous years, but this year the story was different. Berke- ley took first place in the 50-yard free style, 100- yard breast stroke, 220 free style, and 100-yard back stroke. The 100-yard free style was the only event that the Olympic Club placed first. This is just an example of the hard working swimming team. Our team has yet to be defeated in thirteen years of competitive competition. Each time they have taken the A.C.A.L. title and they should be able to do it again this year. . ' Q tj, . ii.

Berkeley High's baseball teams, coached by Fred Moffett and sparked by hard-hitting Billy Martin, has made its debut to i946 competition. Although they have, as yet, been twice defeated, the Yellowiackets showed great promise. Phil Staehle, Babe Van Heuit, and catcher Eddie Leneve are a few of the members who hold the team to- gether. With the constant training given the team by Fred Moffett, the Yellowiackets have improved greatly since their first game. lf they keep improv- Player Staehle Guyon Van Heuit Hertzberg Fuhrman Leneve Campbell Hiscox Martin ing they are a cinch for the top honors. During the practice games and three league games held this far, the team has held the fol- lowing average: Altogether the team has an average of .27'l. Berkeley High's'team has fought hard each time to earn the first place rights for themselves and their coach. This year Berkeley has the team and the coaching that should win them this honor.

Many programs have taken place this semester and outstanding among them was Aqua Antics put on by the Swimming Club. This show consisted of many different events such as: duets, diving exhibitions, and colorful flag displays. This show was put on by the girls under the leadership of Mrs. Ulry. An Overnight was held in the girls' gym on May 3. Dinner and breakfast were served and evening recreation was provided. On April IO and ll Miss Scherini sponsored a Dance Program which was held in the Social Hall. This program showed the techniques of the Dance Classes. Modern Dances were composed by the students and were presented in primitive forms. This whole term has been very successful for everybody around Berkeley High. I hope that the G.A.A. will always keep up its reputation for put- ting on fine programs and providing recreation and entertainment for the girls. Jean Beach, G.A.A. President.

The Berkeley High School Cadet Corps this se- mester is composed of three companies: Head- quarters Company, Company C and Company D. We have a program whereby Mondays and Fridays are devoted to physical fitness, and Wed- nesdays are devoted to swimming. Tuesdays and Thursdays, Cadets wear uniforms, participate in marching, and receive instruction in military training. Our biggest task this term was to prepare for the annual inspection. Army Training Films are used to speed up the teaching of steps in march- ing, manual of arms, military courtesy, etc. Last year during Easter Vacation the Cadet Corps held their first encampment at Camp Kohler. Because of the success of this encampment, plans have now been made to hold another encamp- ment in July at Camp Roberts. Berkeley High School will send thirty-five Cadets, who will be transported by the State in Army trucks. At Camp Roberts, Cadets will go through an intensified course in rifle marksmanship, close order drill, military courtesy and Basic Training subiects. Rifle marksmanship is offered to every Cadet at Berkeley High. Captain Edward Bowes instructs the Cadets after school at the University of Cali- fornia Rifle Range. Each Cadet who completes the course has the chance to qualify for one of the following medals: Expert, Sharpshooter, or Marks- manship, depending upon the score he makes. The Advanced Group is formed into a rifie team. The Berkeley High School team is a member of the National Rifle Association. The team holds postal matches with other schools throughout the state. This term the Berkeley team entered in the national match of the N.R.A. For the last two and a half years Maior Lamar has done a splendid iob in making our battalion one of the finest in the state. We regret hearing of Major Lamar's retirement, but we feel confident that the new commandant will have a fine foun- dation to continue building the Berkeley High School Cadet Corps.
