HARRY ANDERSON SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE This year will be a year of decision for the Class of1959. At no time in the history of the world has there been a period when great decision must be made, and I might say decisions with meaning and accuracy. At the very time of your graduation the Berlin decision must be made by the Big Four. This decision must be made with accuracy and equality to all or our world may again be plunged into a terrible global war. It is the hope of the administration of this school that each of you in theC1ass of 1959, will concentrate on the problems facing you and with the knowledge you have gained in studies at the C aruthers Union High School you may be better equipped to make your decisions correctly. We hope that your decisions will help your future and that of all mankind to live in peace and happiness. CARUTHERS UNION HIGH SCHOOL BOARD OF TRUSTEES The Caruthers Union High School Board of trustees have devoted hours of their time to the development of our educational opportunities. They have given willingly their time for the careful planning of the school rules and regulations for the students to abide by. The success of the students' training for the future is the result of the painstaking effort exhibited by this legislative body of men. Left - Right - Mr, Packer, Mr. Turnmire, Mr. Cox, Mr. Hansen, Mr. Klepper, 6 Class of 1959, I congratulate you upon your achievements, The goal is just ahead. You are about to leave Caruthers High. For four years opportunity has been your constant com- panion. Each individual knows how well he has taken ad- vantage of this companionship. If every day's achievement has been up to individual capacity, then is this commence- ment season a time of real rejoicing? I cannot say just what the four years have meant to you. They have meant much to me. We have had some very happy times together, both as individuals and as a class, the real significance ofwhich will become more apparent to you as the years go by. As a class you will soon go forth into a rapidly changing social, political and economic world. Individually youwill be confronted with problems that will test your strength and courage. It is my hope that you will go forward to the com- pletion of a successful life, MR. R. WAYNE ROSE Sincerely, Mr. Rose PfiUCiP-31 OFFICE WORK Our students, who work in the office with Doris Kazmir, secretary, this year have been very efficient. Our job is to do general office work, and work as an assistant to the secretary. Doris teaches us how to work the office machines, telephones, and she teaches us office work that will help us in the future on a job. First period office work has three girls assigned to work. These three girls type the bulletin and mimeo graph it off. Then they deliver copies of the bulletin to every teacher, Seventh period office work has two girls assigned to work. These girls type the list of absentees of each day and do general office work. Second, fourth, fifth, and sixth periods office work have only one girl assigned to each period, to do general office work. Each girl in the office receives a grade, as in any other subject.

The Prom is for the Junior and Senior Classes. May, 1958, was a memorable occasion. The theme was an Evening in Paris, which was thoroughly carried out with the Eifel Tower and the Arch De Triumph arranged at the entrance of the gym. Around the gym could be seen the Paris City silhouette colored in various shades ranging from deep purple to a light magenta hue. The dinner was held at the Elementary cafeteria and consisted of delicious turkey topped off with a yummy ice cream. The banquet preceded the Prom. It took a lot of work to raise the money for the Prom and also to plan it all, but it was a wonderful and worth-while occasion. 2l The Lou Monte dance band kept the couples in a gay Parisian mood with their various types of fun given music. Cl!4AWlZ The Juniors worked so hard to get Money for the Prom and Banquet The Iunrors burdens were too much to bear O And so they d1ed from lack of dough And away they went OH' Not Below!

Among these activities were the Fair Float, which took second place, and the Fair Booth. Money for the Junior and Senior Prom was earned by many long, hard hours spent in the booth both at the Fair and at ball games. Junior-Senior Dress-Up day was another bang- up activity. E.

Above is shown Marge Peterson, a Junior gal, who took second place and below is Queen Pat Condit, also a Junior. The Queen's float was very pretty this year. The float was built to resemble a bunch of Concord grapes with green leaves. The Junior float was a replica of the Junior booth. This idea had never been used before, and they received a second place vote on it. The float was pulled by Ronnie Koop in his hot rod. The Junior booth did very well at the fair this year. Candy, popcorn, pop, and the usual things were sold, and quite a profit was made. As always there was a problem of having enough workers, but they made it okay. The Juniors are thankful.

Bobby Bowin did a good job as Master of Ceremonies. There were several interesting and humorous acts including a fashion show pre- sented by Carol fK1eppery RottonTree and her models. An excellent baton act by Connie Birdsell, Karla Patrick playing her accordion, Lee Caudill and Judy Phillips doing the hula and several other acts were also presented. Gail Farmer and Shirley Turoonjian were the clowns throughout the assembly. There were several panrornimes, and the assembly turned out to be one of the best Freshman assemblies given in the past few years.

Another responsibility is to attend the Northern Sierra League meetings. At these meeting, the delegates from each school in this league discuss the small school prob- lems which inevitably occur, sportsmanship during games, and similar problems. These meetings are beneficial in promoting better relationships between schools.

The Queen's float this year was outstanding: the gilrs looked very lovely in their very pretty formals. Betty, Carolyn, and Cecille were very pleased to ride the Pepsi Cola float, The Freshmen had a simple but cute float.

It begins the new school term and is the biggest free gate fair in California. The fair grows each year, and as it grows, the fun in- creases. Thursday, October 16, was the first day of the fair this year. That evening Queen Pat Condit was crowned at the coronationby last year's queen, Carolyn Hayes. Pre- ceding the coronation, our high school band presented an out door concert directed by our new music teacher, Mr. Abbott. Friday afternoon the Blue Raiders tied with Laton, 6 to 6, in the fairtime football game. Our team gathered confi- dence with such a large crowd cheering them on. The last day of the fair, Saturday, the 18th, began with the annual Caruthers parade. Our school was represented by the band and class floats as always. That night there was a rodeo and, of course, the drawing for the '58 Chevro- let. Finally everyone went home tired and glad to be going home but a little bit sad that the fair was over until October of 1959. atb dmc 3...-.., and? ea fSponsored by the G. G. AJ The Mother and Daughter Tea was very successful. It was entertaining to the mothers, and the girls enjoyed participating in the entertainment and being excused from all afternoon classes. The first thing on the program was a fashion show which took place around the school swimming pool. Mistress of Ceremonies was Madeline Gabel, a graduate of 1958. Many of the girls participated. Following the fashion show was a swimming dem- onstration directed by Miss Contel. The Mothers were then escorted to the school gym where they were entertained by the girls with many good acts. After the entertainment the mothers were served punch and cookies by their daughters. Everyone enjoyed himself, and the mothers be- came acquainted with each other and with the teachers. 71 October 31, 1958, was the date of the spookiest Hallow- een Dance ever held at Ca- ruthers High School. There were Zorros, Spanish Senoritas, clowns, bums and even dapper gamblers with their dance hall girls. The dance was filled with fun and laughter with various dances consisting of mixed dances and square dances. The Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y were the sponsors of this dance, and be- cause of its success they hope to sponsor more of these dances in the future. mace 7?567 1' The walls of the gym were decorated with bats and pump- kins. Witches and orange bal- loons with pumpkin faces hung from the orange and black streamers stretched across the gym. The dance was a masquerade affair with various types of ap- parel. 0 0 SNACK BAR This year our school opened a snack bar, The snack bar offers a variety of delectable nourishing dishes that include mouth watering hamburgers and hot dogs, delicious jellos and wonderful home baked pies and cobblers.

The social and educational takes care of the social and educational problems that may occur in the life ofa high school girl. The athletic and recreational gives the students a chance to get acquainted with the girls in dif- ferent schools, through playdays, and provides an active program for all girls to participate in activities. Assemblies are held throughout the school year for all of the girls, and these assemblies include student panel discussions and guest speakers. The Girls' Association also sponsors an active sports program and through participa- tion, girls may earn an award in athletics. The assocation sponsors the annual Twerp Week, which concludes with the annual backwards dance. Mary Bennetts Mary Reddell Va naye Ransom Diane Turnmire Margie Metcalf Carolyn Hayes Pat Reynolds I.

The pep band was made up of several students all above average in band. They used new songs and pepped up the old ones. The pep band was usually under the direction of Mr. Abbott, but when he was unable to attend a game game, a rally or one of his classes, Tim Goodrich, the student director, took over and did a fine job. All the kids worked real hard and had a lot of fun, too. We hope the pep bands in the future years will be as good as ours was this year. PEP GIRLS: P. Condit, K. Klepper, M. Bennets, M.I-lansen. K.
