This year, The Statesman has in- stituted a change in format, from the old fashioned yearbook style to that of a contemporary pictorial magazine. This new layout design has enabled greater use of copy, pictures and art work for a more thorough picture of life at Sacramento State College during the school year. The ‘60 Statesman is an attempt at a more interesting, more com- prehensive review of the important events and people which shaped SSC. With this purpose in mind, the staff has endeavored to present a yearbook of the highest quality, yet with a distinc- tively modern appeal. We hope you like if. Lynne Gilmer editor -about the cover- Fritz Scholder, a graduating senior at SSC, designed the cover and created the illustrations used throughout the year- book. A member of the Artists’ Coopera- tive Gallery in Sacramento, he has ex- hibited and won awards at numerous colleges, universities and art galleries throughout the country. About the cover painting Scholder commented, “The design for The States- man cover is not literal. This is not to say that | turn my back on the viewer. How- ever, | believe the viewer must come half way. | do not paint catalogs that give the viewer no chance to interpret for himself. (| must say this, however: the cover design is not an eye!)” S W PRETZER 1379 FITCH WY SACRAMENTO CA 95825 TT Aayeoayus Opssty] op ssej6n y We wg, wnaiseuwAB ever growing... This year Sacramento State College students watched con- struction of a new engineering building. An estimated $3,250,- 000 edifice, the building has capacity for nine laboratories, two spacious classrooms, twenty executive offices and three graphic laboratories. The finest equipment has been secured for the 67,000 square foot building. The thirteen year old campus is rapidly expanding. In Febru- ary of 1953 the college moved to its 260 acre campus along the banks of the American River. On the new campus, classes were held in Douglass Hall, three sci- ence buildings and a row of twelve temporary buildings. wat 3 Since that time each year has marked the construction and completion of other new build- ings. Future plans for expansion in- clude construction of a teacher- education building, plus addi- tions to the art, science and mu- rl ; sic-speech departments. a : In the immediate future a new silat ainaiia : annie women’s physical education As construction progresses. building will be erected offering two swimming pools. One will be used for water sports and div- ing skills, the other for swim- ming instruction. When the cam- pus is completed, total cost will run near $25,000,000.

Each of the three residence halls house 202 people. All were con- structed on the north end of the campus near the entrance to the college, with the two women’s halls, Foley and Jenkins, built in front of Draper, the lone men’s hall. Social season was opened last fall with a get-together the first week of classes at Foley Hall. Several inter-hall mixers were held including a costumed Hal- lowe’en party at Jenkins and a Christmas dance at Draper. Each hall decorated a float for the Homecoming parade, with Jen- kins Hall placing second in the all-campus competition. The halls joined forces in sponsoring a festival which netted $125 for the annual WUS drive. draper hall The first residence hall presidents met to plan future dorm functions. Pictured above, left to right, are Jean Lerza, Foley hall; Jerry Robbins, Draper hall, and Nancy Gross and Sharon Tramner, Jenkins hall. 12 The true image of a college is not something adequately des- cribed in wordy paragraphs on the printed page. It is rather something deeply engraved in the hearts and mind of all those who are associated in the great adventure of seeking truth. | am sure that this yearbook will serve for many decades to revive memories of the many fine associations, we, the faculty and students of Sacramento State College, have been privileged to enjoy as we have worked to- gether during the past year.

Draper candidate Don Stensaas was acclaimed by popular vote to be the ugliest in the Ugly Man Contest for the World University Service Fund Drive. Several hall dances and parties, an off-campus formal at the Elks Club, a barbecue, picnic excur- sion, a Christmas dinner-dance, two open houses and participa- tion in Hornet Holiday contribu- ted to the social program. The construction of volley ball and basketball courts, and hot weather brought a deluge of sweatshirt and bermuda - clad residents, not:to mention their feminine counterparts, outdoors for recreation.

Los Angeles State College dealt the severest blow of the season to the Hornet eleven. _ Playing their second game of the year, the always-powerful Diab- § los took advantage of the Hor- ynet’s lack of conditioning and trampled the Green and Gold forces 60-12, in SSC’s lid-lifter. That first-game margin of de- feat was not indicative of the Hornet's talent.

Fullbacks Mike Szymanski and Jim Holt carried for two Hornet scores, while Musick nailed Rod Vinall for the other. Dick Bach booted the extra point. Norm Tavalero, older brother of freshman Joe, returned to the team in time for the final six games of the season, and SSC’s Hornet Bud Burrows meets an Aggie outlook for conference play was considerably brighter. Big Norm had forsaken football for a box- ing career, but he rejoined the squad for the Humboldt State College contest, thus supplying experience at center and line- backing positions. His appearance on the scene was not sufficient, however, to save the Hornets from a 38-20 defeat at the hands of the Lum- berjacks.

Tay Moore added a two-point conversion. The Green and Gold met an inspired Chico State College squad, playing before its own Homecoming crowd, and met de- feat again, this time by a 28-2 score. Chico’s one-man show, Frank Enos, proved too much for the Hornets, who suffered from a momentary lapse in the gener- al improvement since the start of the season. It was a game of fumbles, with SSC’s lone success, scoring-wise, coming on a Wild- cat mistake. Lou Barba finds an opening. University of Nevada was next on the schedule, and the result of the meeting was the Hornet's tenth consecutive defeat, dating back into the 1958 season. Sac- ramento State made many bids for touchdowns, but all efforts were futile as the Wolf Pack grabbed the win by a 14-0 count. The inevitable finally happen- ed October 31, as the Hornets broke their lengthy loss skein with a 19-7 victory over the Sagehens of Pomona College. Scott hit Quezada for a pair of 33-yard passes, each of which carried within a yard of the TD, to set up the first two scores. Barba and Holt smashed over for the 12 points, and later Scott bootlegged 20 yards for another TD. Bach capped the scoring with an extra point boot. Scott, Quezada and Holt were the stars of the contest. The quar- terback passed for 153 yards on 13 completions, Quezada caught five for 100 yards, and Holt car- Fred Scott scores in the defeat of the Aggies. ried 22 times for 106 yards. The 37-14 defeat suffered by SSC at the hands of San Francisco State College the following weekend was by no means a dis- grace. The visiting Gators were undefeated and their win over the Hornets gave them number nine for the season. Again Scott and Quezada showed terrific style, and they were mainly responsible for the Hornets scoring as many points against the tough Gators as any other collegiate team during the season. This time Scott hit on 16 aerials for 185 yards, of which Quezada hauled in seven for 115 yards, including both TD’s. Out- standing defensive work by SFSC held Holt and Co. to only 68 yards. The final game of the season saw Baker's squad capture its first conference victory with a 21-6 victory over arch-rival Uni- versity of California at Davis. Scott added 100 yards to his pas- sing yardage total with six com- pletions, but Holt was the work- horse in the attack. Holt set rush- ing records by carrying 24 times for 159 yards. Barba added 58 in 15 carries. Scoring came on short smashes by Holt for 12 points and a 20- coaching staff First row, left to righ t: student coach Louie Lacoste, assistant coach Cal Boyes.

Some star seniors will be mis- sing next season, but there was enough young blood on Baker’s squad to give him some assur- ance of success in the future. Scott, Holt, Quezada, Barba and others have been graduated. There will be others to take their places. In post-season balloting among team members, Quezada was se- lected the most valuable player and Holt the most improved play- er of the year. The former, along with Scott, was voted honorary co-captain. In December officials of the Far Western Conference selected Quezada to the first defensive all-conference squad. Other Her- nets accorded positions were tackle Ed Austin and end Wayne Brooks, both named on the sec- ond defensive team.

CP ch net biked Wee is 4 Ns ; s D ‘ “4 Pros Montana and Student assistant Fred Lizalde Frank Reynoso With Terry Smith turning in another fabulous record, vete- rans Norm Tavalero, Frankie Rey- noso and George Waggoner fighting well above par, and an influx of sensational freshman talent, Elespuru could hardly go wrong during the past year. The rookie belters were Pros Mon- tana, 119-pounder from Sacra- mento’s Grant Union High School, Lynn Martell, native of Kellogg, Idaho, who fought at both 156 and 165, and 147-pound Colora- doan George Walker. Also fight- ing for the first time for SSC was Dave Smith, Terry’s popular 28- year-old brother. Terry “Golden Boy” Smith was the main attraction on the Hornet squad throughout the season, as he has been practically since he began fighting here. His regular season record for the 1960 sea- son was a sparkling ten victories without a defeat. He was, how- ever, held to a draw by an ex- tremely powerful San Jose State College 165-pounder, Stu Bartell. In his own weight division, 156 lbs., Terry was virtually untouch- able; and as far as that goes, he did capture a decision from Bar- tell ten days before their draw. For his efforts, Terry was awarded a spot on the first team All-American squad. Lynn Martell in action. Norm Tavalero, possible the strongest, most tigerish light heavyweight in collegiate ranks, also turned in a sterling ledger during the regular season. So well known are his strength and aggressiveness that opposing mentors hesitate before sending their boys into the ring with Norm. “Guv-nor,” as he is affec- tionately called around the SSC boxing room, therefore fought few official bouts during the regular season, but he won all six of those he fought, including a bevy of technical knockouts. Norm was named to the second All-American squad. George Waggoner had some trouble with an early-season in- jury and took an unusually long time to round into shape. How- ever, the classy sophomore came on strong at the end of the sea- son and ended up the number three boxer on the squad with terrific promise for the future. George, too, was named to the number two All-American unit. His regular season ledger read six victories against four losses. George Waggonner Lynn Martell Dave Smith came out of re- tirement to see if he could help Elespuru out in the post-season tournaments. Fighting at 147 pounds, Dave had three outings before the regular season ended. Of these he won one, lost two. Frankie Reynoso compiled his best record at SSC with a 7-3-1 mark. He started extremely fast, winning six of his first seven bouts. The 125-pounder was the most improved Hornet pugilist of the year. George Walker Norm Tavalero Norm Tavalero has the edge on a Washington State boxer. Terry Smith The three. freshmen on the squad supplied fans with some of the top thrills throughout the season. Pros Montana looked so good, in fact, that Elespuru de- cided to use him in the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate boxing tour- nament. He had to think twice before deciding not to use Lynn Martell or George Walker, but all three provide a tremendous amount of promise for the com- ing years. 161 Terry Smith on his way to the 156 pound PCI title. pacific coast intercollegiate boxing tournament The “Crip” Toomey Perpetual Trophy, which is awarded an- nually to the boxer who displays the most outstanding boxing ability in the Pacific Coast Inter- collegiate Tournament, went in its first year to Sacramento State’s Golden Boy, Terry Smith. Pacific Coast Intercollegiate tournament boxing action re- turned to Sacramento after a year’s layoff, and SSC was named host for the event. Elespuru took a six-man team into the PClI’s and the Hornets were rated a strong second be- hind Julie Menendez’ defending national champions from San Jose State. The ratings proved well-based, as the two squads went down to the final fight of the final night of the tournament with 30 points each; but the SJSC’s big heavyweight, Archie Miton, pounded away to the championship, and SSC had lost the tourney by a mere five points. Terry Smith surprised no one as he blasted two fighters out of his way to cop the 156-pound championship.

He had split two decisions with Martin earlier in the cam- paign. To get to the finals, George first subdued SJSC’s Bahman Shoghi.

Frankie Reynoso fought bril- liantly against Dave Nelson of San Jose to make his way into the finals. Like Waggoner, Fran- kie had split two earlier decisions with his initial tournament op- ponent, but he won the one that counted. The following night, however, Frankie could not get the judges’ votes. He did a great job against national defending champion Bobby Cornwell of Washington State, but the deci- sion went to Cornwell.

Fresno State College was the victim in one of the victories while the Cal Aggies and Chico State College accounted for the other. Sacramento State finished in a close third place in the SSC In- vitational meet, losing second place by one point to Humboldt State College. The Hornet squad possessed two fine runners in Gary Noice and Bill Lane. One of those two finished first in nearly every meet during the season. But it was lack of secondary strength which kept the Hornets from be- ing a winning team. Bill Lane — cross country standout. Jose Ramirez Art Williams 440 yard run 167 168 Buck Roper, trainer. Al Kellogg 100 Yard Dash Ernie Dire, Gary Noice, Jerry Lucas, Inexperience and youth were the chief factors facing coaches Harvey Roloff and Larry Kavich in their efforts to build a win- ning squad for the 1960 season. Sacramento State boasted only three lettermen returning from the team which last year took second in the Far Western Conference. But with good team balance and depth, coupled with several standout individual performers, it was hoped would make the Hornets even stronger in 1960 than they were last year. The strength of the Hornet thinclads rested mainly with the freshmen and junior college transfers who comprised the greater part of the squad. Of course lettermen Bill Pope- joy, Gary Noice and Bill Hostet- ter were counted on for top performances. Dick Hotchkiss, Larry Radke, Coach h, student assistant, Tay Moore, Dan Greenwald, Frank Felter, Bob student assistant. Third row, left to right: Joe Glanders, Larry Stockman, Bill Hostletter, track Popejoy proved his ability last year by setting a new conference record while winning the shot put event in the conference meet. Noice took a second place in his favorite event, the half mile run, in that same meet. He was barely edged out at the finish line by team-mate Don Jardine. Past performances, then, rated these two as top contenders in their events. But it is runners such as Jerry Lawrence, Bill Lane, Dwight Breed, Jose Ra- merez, Frank Felter and Al Kel- logg and field event men Dick Hotchkiss, Jerry Lucas, Tay Moore, Bob Buckman and Larry Stockman who were to provide the scoring punch necessary to carry the Hornets to the confer- ence championship. Bill Lane, a transfer from San Jose junior college, seems to have the ability to become a standout performer for SSC. Bill Popejoy Shot Put Left to right: Bill Baker, Jerry Lawrence, Gary Noice, Humboldt runner. Half-mile Run Jerry Lucas Broad Jump In the first meet of the season, Lane gave the Hornets a double victory in the mile and 2 mile against defending champion Humboldt State College. Then, the following week, against Fresno State, he narrow- ly missed equalling his own best time for the 2 mile event. Lane was last year’s state junior college 2 mile champion. Another new face on the Hor- net squad was Jerry Lawrence. Lawrence, a former Modesto junior college star, was joined by letterman Gary Noice and Bill Baker, a freshman from El Ca- mino high school, to give the Hornets the strongest middle dis- tance combination in the confer- ence.

Distance Run ss wecesceecesteetses ‘ Frank Felter High Jump Al Kellogg, Ernie Dire Sprinters Dick Hotchkiss Pole Vault Jerry Lawrence Gary Noice The most experienced runner on this year’s team is senior sprinter Al Kellogg. Although at- tending classes at SSC last year, eligibility rules prevented him from competing for the Hornets. Two years ago, Kellogg was ranked as one of the top sprint- ers in the United States. Excel- lent times last year while com- peting for a club team indicate that he could again gain national recognition in 1960. ’ Without a doubt he is the top sprinter in the Far Western Con- ference. Two freshmen, Larry Radke and Dwight B reed were SSC’s hope for points in the 440 yard dash. In his first race this season, Breed nearly defeated the 1959 conference quarter mile cham- pion. With the experience gainéd from more dual meet competi- tion it was thought that he could be tops in his event. In the field events, the Hornets strongest competitor, besides let- terman Bill Popejoy, was junior Dick Hotchkiss. Breaking the tape in the 880 yard run Hotchkiss, from Sierra junior college, was SSC’s top entrant in the pole vault, an event in which the Hornets had no entries last season. Hotchkiss consistently vaults over 13 feet and expected to hit 14 feet before the end of the season. Despite the fact that this was the first season of college com- petition for many of these Hor- nets, the 1960 Hornet track squad looked like championship material. In the first meet of the season they defeated the defending con- ference champions. The follow- ing week they looked strong against a terrific Fresno State squad. Coaches Kavich and_ Roloff were optimistic about the future, and with reason. This year’s Hor- net track team looked to be a good one. 171 baseball The SSC Hornets, seeking their 7th consecutive baseball cham- pionship this spring were feeling the loss of a few outstanding players, but expectations were for a stronger offensive team than last year. Some of the strong points this year were the return of such in- fielders as Andy Braio at first, Ruly Quezada at second and Bill Key, third.. Backing up the vet- erans were hard-hitting shortstop Darrel McBorie and catchers Dean Andoe and Don Nannini. The team had lost its number one pitcher in Corky Guy, but gained Bill Subry, a fast curve transfer, and Marv Weekly, in good form after having arm trouble last year, as well as Gene Schroeder and two good reliefers — Dick Back and Al “Smiley” Smith.

The outfield included Don Run- yan leading the fly chasers, with Ben Brenning, Jerry Conway, Darrel Strickland and Ed Alexan- der lending support. In the past, the Hornets have been invited to the national play- offs, but have never played as they were held during “dead week.” With the date changed this year, Coach Cal Boyes is hoping to be able to attend — if the fighting Hornets make it Number Seven. 173 174 Coach Cal Boyes SS OT Ee AO Don Nannini catcher Bill Key and Dick Kempster at third.
