Corona High School - Coronal Yearbook (Corona, CA)

Text from Pages 1 - 136 of the 1939 volume:

Published Annually by The STUDENT BODY of Corona Senior High School This is the third of the enlarged annuals published annually by the students of the Corona Senior Hi h School. Each year the staff attempts to improve the content and cover. Last year the Photography club joined the annual staff in an attempt to make the annual a pictoiial review cf the events of the year. This year, through more pictures and improved photo- graphy, we believe that the photography class, the staff and the print shop have succeeded in surpassing all of the previous Coronals. The Annual Staff i This edition is dedicated to our beautiful campus and all of those responsible for the development and upkeep. The students appreciate all attempts that have been made by those respon- sible to give them the finest campus in Riverside County. Mr. F. J. Mueller Mr. D. R. Menefee BREAK, BREAK, BREAK Break, break, break, On thy cold gray stones, O Sea! And I would that my tongue could utter The thoughts that arise in me O well for the fisherman’s boy That he shouts with his sister at play! O well for the sailor lad. That he sings in his boat on the bay! And the stately ships go on. To their haven under the hill; But O for the touch of a vanish’d hand. And the sound of a voice that is still! Break, break, break. At the foot of thy crags, O Sea! But the tender grace of a day Will never come back to me. — Alfred Tennyson ✓ B0 ° U ieP Vor ovd Oed ca� on |vAe ot ' Urn CaroP uS 8°° v w BooV o! °- BooV N Au5 ' c Q ta roa BooV M - � CAMPUS Campus scenes such as the ones shown in this section of the Coronal depict the floral beauty of our campus as well as the f : ne buildings and pleasant surroundings, which by comparison make the students of Corona Senior High School proud that they are in a position to claim it as their own. Mr. Frank E. Bishop, District Super ' .n- Lendant of Corona Schools, is known to us as one who always has the best interests of t.. students at heart. It is through his efforts that many of the fine things on our campus have been obtained. He will always be remem- bered by those who leave school as kindly, understanding and sympathetic. 1 he Board of Education is made up of some of our leading citizens, all of whom have, or have had, sons or daughters in our schools. They have done their utmost to make us happy with our surroundings and have done every- thing within the ' r power to give us the finest educational and recreational equipment avail- able. The present board is composed of Mr. Fullenwider, president; Mrs. Newsom, secre- tary, Mr. Hall, Mr. Ranney and Mr. Burchfield. Mr. Mueller and Mr. Menefee, form ' r presidents of the Board of Education, both of whom passed away during the current school year, deserve our heartfelt appreciation for their many sacrifices in our behalf. Mr. Dale I. Glick, Principal, came to us this year from Tulare. His understanding of the problems of the boys and girls under his supervision has endeared him to the entire student body as well as the faculty. He entered into the spirit of the community and school on the day of his arrival and has continued this interest in our affairs throughout the year. We affectionately consider him a fine fellow and a good sport. ✓ Margaret Jones teaches Spanish, Latin and has charge of assemblies and the book store.

This is his first year with us on a full time schedule and the improvement of our varstiy teams indicates that we have needed him for a long time. Glessie Strange came to us this year from Chino. She quickly took her place as an outstanding physical education teacher as well as a fine spon- sor for the Girl Reserves and assistant sponsor of the G.A.A. Mr. Thome, head of the Phys ' cal Education depar ' .ment and attendance officer, has al- ways been popular with the students.

SN0IJVZINV3B0 EXECUTIVE BOARD Corona High School ' s Student Body Exec- utive board has the task of controlling all student body affairs and is in charge of the expenditure of money. This board was com- posed of James Ganahl, president; Leroy Lieb, V:ce president; Jean Wallace, secretary; Kennth Baugh, treasurer; Ralph Garton Editor, Fred Childress, Dudley Tompkins, rorest Jones, Eileen Jewel, Arthur James, Patsy House, Dal I. Click, L. A. Pauly, and H. L. Bynum. CORONAL STAFF The Coronal staff this year, headed by Marjorie Hobbs, started early preparing the dummy. It was their intention to show in pictures, the activ- ities of the entire year and especially bring out the beauty of our campus. Included on the staff were Marjorie Mueller, Dot Rawson, Betty Agins, and Phyllis Root. The business staff, Charlotte Friestad and Eileen Jewel, are largley responsible for the Coronal’s success. KO— HI— NUR by Max Nugent The Ko-Hi-Nur is published every two weeks by the Journ- alism class. The editor was Ralph Garton. This year Miss Hill changed the editor of each oage, every issue instead of having one person in charge of the same page all year. The ICo-Hi-Nur is linotvped and printed by the High School print shop. « DEBATING by Marjorie Mueller The Corona High debate squad achieved much success with their busy schedule this year. The season started off with a practise Cit- rus Belt League Tournament in which the team of Bill Colbern and Gale Bratten took second Charles Bright and Bill Bolin also competed. A few months later the same teams par- ticipated in the National Forensic Tryouts held in Los Angeles. In March, a squad made up of Marjorie Mueller, Bill Colbern, Charles Bright, and Bill Bolin took second and third place at the Citrus Belt League Tournament held at Colton High. This same squad made a splendid showing at the annual Redlands State Tourn- ament. Much praise is due Mr. Wiley for his able coaching. GIRLS’ LEAGUE by Elema Townsend Cne of the outstanding features of the Girl s League is the fact that every girl auto- matically becomes a member without the obligation of paying dues. In this way no girl is barred from active membership because of spending money. I he principal purpose of the Girl ' s Lea- gue is welfare work and fostering high ideals of friendship and character among its mem- bers. This year we were in charge of the carni- val for lemonville and with the proceeds we sent our annual contribution to the Children ' s Home at Los Angeles. We held a Mothers ' tea at Christmas time. Hi Jinx, the big event of the year, was held April 28. At this time tjie Queen of Hi Jinx, Elema Townsend, was crowned. She was elected by all the girls in school. In past years this affair w s held :n the auditorium with the public invited but this year we broke that tra- dition and held it in the gym with a dance and floor show. Only young people were invited. Much thanks is due Alta Pries for her work on the decoration committee end also many others who worked to make Hi Jinx a success. The ninth grade girls were entertained at the last Girl ' s League meeting of the yeai. At this time we installed our new officers for next year and held a fashion show. Tea was served in the patio. Miss Evelvn Steinmeir was the new spon- sor this year. Elema Townsend was president; Bette Agins, vice-president; Wilma Amaon, secretary; Jesus Cervantes, treasurer. Repre- sentatives were Jackie Joy, Charlotte Friestad and Norma Carwile. These officers make up the cabinet and they meet every other Mon- day ' d S irI ’ League mee ting is called once a month. Most of these meetings are for enter- tainment purposes. BOYS’ FORUM The Boy’s Forum was organized in 1935 and has proved such a success that it has been continued. The purpose of the organization is to acquaint the boys with various subjects, entertaining talks and pictures. At the begin- ning of the year the boys elected officers end a committee for the year. Together with their sponsor Mr. Brooks they chose a worth while program. If the Boy s Forum continues as it did th : s year it will continue to flourish in the future. G. A. A. The Girls ' Athletic Association is an organization for girls who are interested in sports. To become a member a girl must have one hundred athletic points. For five hundred points a girl receives her letter and for each additional five hundred points she receives a sitr. The G.A.A. was very active this year. The social program was started off with a “Jollytime Jamboree.” Dancing and games were enjoyed with all the girls in high school being invit- ed. The G.A.A. waved the school colors by making bigger and better pompons. The G.A.A. ended up 1938 with a Christmas party which was a huge success. In February the girls had a skating party in Pomona. The G.A.A sponsored a pay assem- bly. The sophomore members of the G.A.A. sponsored a mat- inee dance and a regular school dance, both of which were well patronized. The cabinet has planned several more parties and spreads which are to take place before the annual banquet in the latter part of May. The officers for the past year were: President, Frances Neely; Vice President, Faye Cochran and Secretary -Treasure, Helen Johnson. These officers were assisted by a cabinet com- posed of members representing all of the classes. I GIRL RESERVES The Girl Reserves, consisting of about forty girls, is the high school organization of Y.W.C.A. The meetings are held bi-monthly with one of them a supper meeting followed by a program. The other meetings consist of a short business meeting with the principal part a program pertaining to the theme. Our first semester theme was Ships and each meeting was planned to fit in with this. For example, our Christmas meeting, of which we wrapped gifts for our adopted school children from Ferndale, was entitled ' Cargo Ship” Second semester we were especially busy as we had our own recognition service at the Me- thodist Church. It is the first year this has been undertaken. Ellen Clare Nichols, devotional chairman, was in general charge and Phyllis Root, president, took charge of recognizing the members. One of the most interesting meetings of the year was the progressive dinner during April. Bicycles and skates were the means of tran- sportation and it was all very informal. The title of the program was “Skin Deep and Mrs Letha Bratten talked to us about correct make- up and skin care. The programs are planned to fulfill the sym- bol of the Girl Reserve triangle which repre- sents the three sides of a girl’s nature- physical, mental, and spiritual. The meetings also are to bring enjoyment in social activities. Miss Mar- garet Jones and Miss Glessie Strange were a great help to us as sponsors for the year. The officer for the year are as follows: Pre- sident, Phyllis Root, vice-president, Betty Nugent, program chairman, Alice Newton, sec- retary, Dorothy Dillon, treasurer, Anna Belle Fergus, publicity chairman, Melva Holder, de- votional chairman, Ellen Clare Nichols, social chairman, Phillis Bickmore, servee chairman, Charolotte Friestad, and song leader, Martha Knauer. � HI-Y CLUB The club this year has a membership of seventeen boys, taken from all three of the classes in High School. To become a member a boy has only to fill out an application blank at the first of the year. The first move of the club on returning to school is to make these application blanks available to all boys inter- ested in joining. Our club program then begins. We have three activities that are more or less traditional. These are; Mother and Son Ban- quet, Father and Son Banquet and Ladies’ Night. We have many trips, swims, and pro- grams other than those mentioned. The officers of the club this year are; Ted Todd vice-president. Forest Jones secretary Gale Bratten treasurer. I feel it has been an honor and a privilege to serve as president of this club and I would like to thank the officers and Mr. Bynum, our sponsor, for their hard work and cooperation. PHOTOGRAPHY This year, photography was made a regular solid in high school rather than contin- uing the hobby group which has met in previous years. Mr. Vaile, who has been very much interested in this subject for many years, has helped wouldbe photographers along the trail. With such experienced workers as James Sanford, Bill Bolin, Everest Brownfield, Ted Todd, and Ralph Garton to aid th err , the entire photographing for the annual fell upon this amature class. The first semester was spent in taking, developing, printing and enlarging the many pictor- : al scenes of our school. In the middle of the year, Ralph Gar- ton was unnanimously elected head ‘dictator’ to take charge svstematically of the annual pictures. Bud Colbern was the pride and joy of the F.F.A. As he took all pictures of their ex- hib ' ts and work throughout the year. If you aren ' t perfectly sat- isfied with the work this year, remember that next year ' s group will profit themselves by our mistakes. This has been a worthwhile project which I hope will be continued next year. SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY The Scholarship Society is composed of students who have won at least eight points in studies and two points in school activities. This year has proved an extraordinary one in the Societys history in that many of its members are seniors. Since it is considered an intelectual organ- ization, the members hope to develop the Society into an organization of service to the school and to the community, an organization which will sponsor intelectual activities and help keep the ideals of the school on a high level. The members don’t wish to be consid- ered “book worms,’’ but they do wish to be known as workers in the school. The sponsor of the Scholarship Society is Mrs. Hazel Hyatt. The officers are president, Forest Jones; vice-president, secretary, trea- surer, Adale Linschied. LETTERMAN’S CLUB The Lettermans Club is composed of boys who have made a varsity letter in anyone of the varsity sports. There are about twenty-five members in the club. The highlights of the pro- gram this year was the sponsoring of the Broadway Clowns Basketball game initiation of incoming lettermen, and a skating party at the Polar Palace. Leroy Lieb was elected president with George Pauly, vice president, and John Oler- man, secretary and treasure. Coach Lawrance Thome is the advisor of the club. THE CORONA HIGH PRINT SHOP The Corona High School Print Shop, this year linotyped and printed as well as making the covers and binding this year’s Coronal. Besides this big job they also linotyped and printed the Ko-Hi-Nur and did hundreds of odd jobs through- out the year. Because of these jobs the print shop is known as the official printery of the Cor- ona High School. ALL SCHOOL PLAY After many dubious comments and much sc plkis.m on the part of the cast, the “39 all school play went with great success. Jackie Joy played the part of a popular and lovable college girl who was being bullied by a police chief (Everest Brownfield). Aftci much suspense, the villain was exposed and the play ended w.th a surprising twist, (a play within a play.) The supporting cast included Bill Colbern, as the villain; Manley Cole, as Judy’s friend; Keith Cunningham, as an athletic Tarzan; Charles Hardisty, Bud Colbern, Gale Bratten, Gilson Grey, Ford Gregory, and David Hull played college boys. Marjorie Mueller played the part of a suspicious, mysterious girl; Mickey Jewell as tbe Campus flirt, and Rozella Clark the part of an athletic Amazon. Other college girls were; Marjorie Hobbs, Phyllis Root. Patsy House, Shan McDonald, Mary Jane Bryant, and Elma Skinner. Bill Bolin as Professor Slopes and Bet e Agins as Oliva Oil were the comedy hits of the evening. In the course of many years of drama in Corona High 420 College Avenue was as successful a play as has ever been presented, thanks to the cooperation and hard work of the cast and director, Paul Wiley. The men of muscle taking the parts of policemen were; Philip Newhouse, George Pauly, and Neal Snipes. James Harper played the part of c foner. JUNIOR PLAY This years Junior Play “The Late Chris- ropher Bean by Sidney Howard was present- ed by an interested cast before an audience which marked a new high in play attendance. The comedy had to do with a family of New Englanders who have years before, given re- fuge to a great but undiscovered artist, Chris- topher Bean. The play begins after Bean’s death with the world frantically in search of his works and any details it can gather as to his life and character. Doctor Haggett and his family, always the pillar of simplicity and honesty in their community, become hard sel- fish and greedy over the Bean paintings in their possession. Abby the simple loving family servant, was the only person who had appre- ciated and understood the artist during life. At the last moments she discloses her secro marriage to him, and falls into possession of the paintings. The cast ably directed by Paul Luyon Wiley included Eileen Jewell as Abby, Everest Brownfield as Doctor Haggett, Ann McDonald as Mrs. Haggett, Jackie Joy as Ada Haggett and Rosemary Tipton as Susan Haggett. War- ren Creamer, a village painter and paper han- ger, in love with Susan Haggett was protrayed by Gale Bratten, Ford Gregory played the part of Tallent, a smooth forger from New York Rosen a crooked art dealer was played by Bill Bolin, Philip Newhouse ably portrayed Man- well Davenport, an elderly and distinguished art dealer. Book I Veach, Bob Cunningham, Keith Nudson, Grace SENIOR Cl. ASS HISTORY by Dot Rawson Just four short years ago the cl ' s- of nineteen hundred and thirty nine entered ths institution of learning as the last class be- fore the system changed to the 6 - 3-3 plan. The members were meek and more or less bashful as all Freshmen are but it didnt take very long for them to get into the run of things. There wes , scarcely an activity on the campus that was not blessed by at least one and usually more Green Fresh es. Not only did they prove that they were outstanding in sport3 and organization activities but also in scholarship. The second semester of that year n ne members of the class made the scholarship society. This was a very excellent contri- bution from one class. These nine were Barbara Bridenstine, Lucille Johnson, Phyllis Root, James Ganahl, Elema Townsend , Darlene Linschied, Charles Jameson, Frances Neely and Mar jorie Mueller. A large number of the class took part in Lemon- ville and Hi-Jinx. The G.A.A. boasted fifteen first year mem bers while entrance into the Lettermens’ Club which is a little harder goal to attain, was made by Keith Cunningham. Most ol the star players on this year’s teams, first crashed the gates their freshman year. Some of these were: football player, Leroy Lieb; basketball players, Morrell McDonald and Dudley Tompkins Baseball was pushed along by Max Nugent and Howard Sage, while Gwin Walker ! d_Jjmmy Ganahl did the track honors foi the class. McDonald, Morrell Childress, Fred Much of the class s outstanding talent blossomed out in the form of Lois Terpening with her accordian end at the piano, and Rozella Clark s silvery voice. Betty Agins proved to be the most interested dramatist. Many of the girls proved to have a definite interest in Girl Reserves, an nterest that was so deep that it has lasted through four years. The class represen ' at’ve on the an- nual staff this f rst year was Betty Agins. Keith Cunningham was the only boy who proved to have a definite interest in tennis. Darlene Linschied and Elema Townsend made the girls tennis tsam. , etna n ’ o son During the second year of this class’s high school career it boasted an increase in scholarship members. Bob Veach mede the coveted society. The thirty n.ner’s true colors came to the surface when they presented “Austin Rar.ney ' s Tummy,” the prize winning skit at Lemonville. Th� class continued to show certain V T Sf V ri athletic skill and leader; h ' p ability. The turno. for boys’ sports continued to be large ant promising with Tony Deleo the only soph t make Varsity football. Leroy Lieb was out standing in basketball, X” football a d vara tv baseball. Keith Cunningham and Jofi- Olierman made the grade in boys tennis wh ' V Max Nugent was captain of the J. V. basebi team. The girls, too, proved to be sports m ' ni ed. Those being out for sports all four yean included; Helen Johnson, Bette Agin; A®- cy- -CQ Betty Nugent, Marjorie Mueller, Frances Neely, Dot Rawson, Mary Moffett. Elema Townsend, Jean Wallace, Phyllis Root, Phyllis Bickmore, Rozella Clark, Lucille Johnson, Barbara Brid- enstine, Marjor ' e Hobbs and Joy Krick. The newly organized F.F.A. proved to be of interest to Clayton Wulff, Leroy Lieb, Oppie Bolland, Art Scamara end Robert Harvey, their sophomore year, while Fred Childress, Ralph Scamara and Max Nugent joined up, their Junior year. This organization has continued to hold the boys whole hearted interest. Being a class officers is always a satisfying feeling. Leroy Lieb was Freshman vice president. Phyllis Root was Sophomore secretary-treasurer, Fred Childress was Junior Class president and James Sanford, vice president. Bob Veach is Senior pres- etvV ’ o ' ' X ' G etS Sc 1 ident and Grace Nudson, secretary. Morrell McDonald was elected Senior treasurer and Keith Cunningham, vioe- president. Tennis enthusiasts showed a defin- ite increase during the Sophomore year. Lucille Johnson, Betty Nugent and Phyllis Root were the newcomers among the girl racquet swingers. Morrell became treasurer of the Hi- Y his Jun or year and president his Senior year. The annual staff during 1936-3 7 included four Soph omores; Betty Agins, Phyllis Root, Dot Rawson and Paul Snyder. Dudley Tompkins started writing for the Ko-Hi-Nur his Sophomore year and continued to be a “scoop reporter’ throughout the rest of his high school days. Elema Town- send and Gwin Walker became jour- nalistic : n t.heir Junior year and con- tinued their interest through their Sen- ior year. Ralph Carton is this year’s editor and under him as first year re- porters ere Dot Rawson, Keith Cun- ningham aJ}d Darlene Linschr’ed. Noble, Norma Linschied, Darlene Krick, Joy Townsend, Elema Marvey, Robert Bolland, Opie Newton, Robert Colbern, Bill Agins, Bette Pries, Alta Baldwin, Clyde Nugent, Max ■=3 73 Instead of presenting one three act play during their junior year, as has been the custom in previous years, the class of thirty nine produced three one-act plays. This enabled a large number of students to prove their talent. Grace Nudson, Dan Keller, Barbara Bridenstine, Dora Smith, Fred Childress, and Bob New- ton were in one production entitled The Wedding.” Dot Raw- son, Bette Agins, Phyllis Root, and Junior Longe portrayed the characters in “Two Crooks and a Lady.” Marjorie Mueller and Bill Colbern took the parts in “Sham.” During their third year of high school some of the students became interested m debate. Bill Colbern and Marjorie Mueller took an active part at this time and also during their senoir year With an advance in age and atletic skill more members of this class made the school teams. In a fairly successful season o: varsity football Tony Deleo and Paul Snyder were letter winners while in the X squad Jimmy Ganahl was outs ' an- ' ing In basketball Tony Deleo made the varsitv, Jimmy GanaH Leroy Lieb, Dudley Tompkins, and Gwin Walker mad“ the ”B” team, and Johnny Lunnetta was Co- Captain of the “C” team. Jimmy Ganahl continued to star in track along with Gwin Walker on the ‘ X ' squad.

The Banquet v as held at the Los Seranos Country Club .and was one of the most successful banquets ever given During his senior year James Gar.ahl was elected student body president. .Jean Wallace and Lerov Lieb were chosen for the offices of secretary and vice-president respectively. Kenny Baugh was entrusted with •■ ' ' e student body ' s finances, Phillis Root and Rozella Clark were chosen to lead yells for the school. Back to sports again; this, year the school took three championship cups. Seniors on the varsity football team were: returning lettermcn Paul Snyder, and capt. Tony Deleo with Clayton Wulff, James Ganthl, L roy Lieb, George Smith and Dan Keller made their first varsity football letter. On the B” basketball team were Gwir. Walker, James Ganahl, Dudley V ,cP Njj � XVe 3 e Tompkins. Lloyd Edwards and Gwin Walker were tHe only Senior members on the champian X track team. With a good year ?n prospect this season for varsity baseball it will be ably helped by Max Nugent, Jimmy Ganahl, Tony Deleo, Gwin Wal- ker, Ray Delgadillo and Leo Hayes. In the later part of February the seniors rode to their an- nual ditch day, which was held at Wrightwood Fifty three seniors enjoyed the day by skiing, sledding and tobogganing. After lunch some of the seniors went on up to Big Pines where they enjoyed dancing. After the strenuous day s work there were many tired seniors for a couple of days follow- ing. The class of ‘39 had two members, John Ollerman and Leith Cunningham, on a championship tennis team, the third year.Two of the boys of this class were members of the Letter- men s Club executive board their senior year, Lerov Lieb, pres., and John Ollerman, Sect, and Treas. Fred Childress in his senior year won an agriculture oratorical contest (Financing Farm Projects) which entitled him to a 3 day trip to San Francisco World’s Fair. As the four years of high school draw to a close, the sen- iors look back on them Sisfyears filled with fond memories and traditions never to be fof otten and J($?k forward to a world of unknown adventmey r ' .

HISTORY of JUNIOR CLASS By Eileen Jewel After a prolonged stay in Junior High School the class of 40 entered High School as Sophomores. This marked the inauguration of the new three year system in Corona High School. Being Sophomores however saved us none of the Terrors” of initiation by the sen- iors. An unusual number of Sophomores parti- cipated in all school activities. Forrest Jones was our first class president in high school while Wilma Amoan was vice-president, Elma Skinner secretary-treasurer, Ann McDonald and Philip Newhouse were executive board representatives. As Juniors, the class of ”40” continued its excellent first year record. Class Officers were; Gale Bratten, president; Neal Snipes, vice-president; Manley Cole, secretary; Alice Newton, Treasurer. Forrest Jones End Eileen Jewell were representatives to the student ex- cutive board. A high standard of class spirit has been prevalent in all class activities, especially in planning the annual Junior - Senior gathering, where the class voted to have a banquet with- out the customary Prom. The Juniors have been very active in all activities and may well look forward to a ban- ner senior year. When class elections were held the Sopho- mores chose Joyce Mack for the.r president, Bob Kilday, vice president, Pat Long, se re t .ry, Melva Holder, treasure, and W„rrcn Ehlers was appointed yell leader. Art Jane . nd Patsy House were selected as members of t ' -e student body executive board. Dues of 50c ware set and the Junior-Senior banquet f .nd as augmented. During the year the Sophomores busied hemselves with sports and other activiti°s. Farrell Jones and Bob Kilday were among the r ootball lettermen on the varsity team and helped the squad win its Tri-County league co- championship. Sophomores also contr bu’ed a preat deal to basketball teams and all “X” ' mads. Several members started their high ' bool dramatic career in the all school play, 320 College Avenue. Among these were Bud Colbern, Patsy House and Mary Jene Bry- : nt. For Lemonville the Sophomore- presented a musical talent show and managed a dart throwing booth. Both were considered a suc- cess. Many class members also took part in the Jitterbug craze and were seen at all the school dances. When the Sophomores drifted into Cor- ona High last fall their first thoughts were of their classes. There were rooms to explore and many questions to ask. These things settled, the next big obstacle arrose Sophomore initia- tion. According to the Seniors, few lower class- men would come out alive. The day arrived and things began to happen. The cosmetics stores prospered, but the shoe business was at a standstill. Everything ended satisfactorley, however, and the “youngsters” were offisiai members of the school. Principal Dale 1. Click was among the greenery” and was called be- fore the kangaroo court with the rest of the ne; ‘ comers.

Corona’s hopes for a Tri-County League championship looked rather dark. Howevei w-’th 46 men out for practice, Coach Jess Hill found that there were quite a number of very g ,od prospects. After two weeks of practice, the Corona Panthers journied to Riverside for the only night game of the season. Although beaten by Riverside 20-0, statistics showed that Corona’s team had power and would be a league contender. Corona then traveled to kicked the winning point. In the final seconds Citrus passed into the end zone for 6 points but failed to convert. In the most important game of the season Corona tied Colton for the first time in 1 3 years. An odd twist is, that when Corona tied Colton I 3 years ago Coach Jesse Hill was then playing in the backfield. The surprise of the day was when Gibson, Corona ' s Red Rambler, came into the game. Red picked up many yards through the Colton defense. Wulff, Snyder, Higgins, Snipes, Kilday, Ganahl and Pauly were successful in breaking up many of Colton’s end runs and line plunges. Corona’s eleven rambled 85 yards to Colton’s 50 in the first half of the game. The second half Colton ou ' .gained Corona 120-75 yards. Although the number of first downs were ten each. All in all this is a game never to be forgotten by the Corona fans. The following week we slayed Chino at Chino. Corona and Chino both scored in the first minutes of play making the score 6-6. So it remained until the middle of the fourth quarter when Neal Snipes and his educated toe kicked out of danger. The whole team gave a spark- ling performance as we won our fourth league game. Our next game was with Puente on the home field. The players were eager to show the fans what they really could do to a fair opponent and proceeded to win from Puente with a score of 20 to 0. The high light of the game was when Art Cantu went in, in the second quarter, and smashed his way single handed 1 5 yards to a touchdown. ¥ Downey was not so easily beaten. Due to the wind, the kicking was unusually poor and there were many fumbles. Corona finally was victor- ious with a score of 1 3 to 6. To climax the season, the annual football banquet sponsored by the Lions Club was held in the senior high school cafeteria. It was more than a banquet this year; it was a fitting celebration of the winning of the championship of the Tri-County League, a feat which had not been accomplished for 1 3 years by this school. After a splendid repast Coach Merritt of Pomona gave an inspirational talk which was greatly enjoyed by all who attended the ban- quet. Coaches Jess Hill and Ralph Rich came in foi much praise for their splendid coaching of the football team. Coach Hill made the presentation of let- ters to the largest number of players to ever rece:.ve this honor at one time. He also praised the other boys who were out for football all season but were not able to make a letter be- cause they did not play the required number of quarters. Captain Deleo was given much praise for his generalship on the field and Captain-elect Harry Higgens was presented with the football used in the Corona-Colton game. Leroy L ' eb was presented with the 20-30 trophy for being the most valuable player on the team. F o o t b a X FOOTBALL by Virgil Olson Although not a championship team Coach Brooks ' s X football squad proved to be one of the hardest fighting teams to be produced at Corona. With but three returning lettermen the prospects for a good X team looked rather dark. After a few weeks of strenuous practice the team was ready for their first league tilt. On the afternoon of October 20, the pan- ther Cubs traveled to Bonita for their first league tilt of the season. With neither team able to score, the game ended 0-0. An odd thing to note is, that this is the third straight ye r that Corona and Bonita have tied. The next week Corona met Citrus at Corona ar.d was beaten 19-6. Going to Colton for their next game the Cubs took their worst X F o o t b a defeat of the year. The larger Colton team won 26-0. The next encounter was on the home field with Chino. In this game Rathbone ran back a punt from his own 30 yard line, but to no avail for he stepped out of bounds on Chino ' s 20 yard line. The game ended 1 3-6 in favor of Chino. Traveling to Puente for their fifth league game, the Brooksmen were on the long end of a 1 3-8 score. In the last few minutes of play Murphy caught a long pass and ran for the winning touchdown. The next week they re- peated with a 7-0 win over Downey. The Corona Varsity basket- ball team started the season un- der a severe handicap. Most of the previous season’s veterans were graduated and new talent had to be developed. They started the season slowly but ended up strong by winning 3 and losing 4 league games. The team was composed of guards; Tony Deleo, Neal Snipes, Robert Pontius and Morrell McDonald; Centers; Leroy Lieb and Merle Allen; Forwards; Keith Cunningham, Bob Kilday and Steve Crippen. Coach Thornes ' Bee squad enjoyed a wonderful season by winning 20 out of 22 basket- ball games and winning all but one league game to end the basketball season tied with Col- ton for the championship of the Bee division. The squad consisted of the following; Capt. Everett Shino- gee, Gwin Walker, Manuel Yasquez, Jim Ganahl, Virgil Olson and John Lunetta as for- wards: at center were Clinton Crowder, Gilbert Macias, Joe Dominguez: guards; Dudley Tompkins, Richard Murphy, Ed Hearn, Tony LaPorto and Jack Shockley. ✓ “C” BASKETBALL By George Smith Having four men back from last year, the Cee Basketball team won all of their games but one. Coached by Orville Brooks the Cees won the Tri- County league championship for the first time it has ever been won by a Corona Cee team, the team is composed of: Baugh, Keast, Pearson, Walker, Perez, McCorkle, and Crickett. “D” BASKETBALL By Max Nugent The Dee team coached by Orville Brooks went through he setason with a pretty fair record although there were not many players from the senior high school. The team was lead by their hard fighting cap- tain, Gene Hardihon. The other team members were. Brooks, Bess, Edmondson, Bickhart, Hill, Sparkman, Ty- ler and Krick. VARSITY TRACK by Scoop Holtman The track season started out this year with only a small turnout which was quite dis- couraging to Coach Thome. Before the season was over, however, the ability of the men who did turn out began to as- sert itself and the team finished up strong. Dual meets were held with Colton, Bonita and Citrus. Al- though we didn ' t win any of these meets the results were close. Nearly every man enter- ed placed in some event. Those, who placed consis- tently were; Gibson inthe pole vault, Esparza in the mile, Pontius in the 440, Ganahl in the 880, Hearn in the 440, Jones and Donavon in the 100, and Pauly and Sn ; pes in the shot put. In the Tri-County meet, at Puente, Corona took sixth place ' ' Red” Gibson placed first in the pole vault by clear- in the bar at 1 1 feet 3 inches. Bob Pontius took third in the 440; George Pauly, third in the shot put; Neal Snipes, fifth in the shot put. Corona’s relay team composed of Hearn, Jones, Pontius and Ganahl took third place. Gibson, Pontius and Pauly were honored by being sent to the Southern California Relay trials at Riverside. “X” TRACK by Scoop Holtman The “X spikemen were able to top Colton by one and one-half points and take the Tri-County league title this year with 3 1 Vz digits. The Panthers were trailing until they took the relay for much needed points. Arnold Henson was high point man on the Corona team taking second in the 50 yard dash, fourth in the high jump and second in the broad jump. Other places were by Onius Aceveda who was third in the 330; Gordon Rathbone, third in the 1 00 yard dash and first in the high jump; Junior Flores, first in the 1 320; Vincent Con treras, third in the 1320; and Warren Fox, fourth in the broad jump. VARSITY BASEBALL By “Scoop” Holtman Under Coach Jess Hill the Panther horsehiders had an in- teresting season. In a pre- league practice game they showed superiority and won a good per-cent of their battles. When the Coronal went to press the squad had a sunny future in the Tri-County sched- ule. This year ' s team included many good players. Ray Delgadillo and Paul Fredericks proficiently held down the mound. Art Cantu was star catcher. The infield included Neal Snipes at first, Virgil Ol- son at second, Clinton Crowder at third, Jim Ganahl at either second or third and Everett Shinogee at short stop. Shin- ogee proved to be one of the most valuable players of the ■ ear. In the outfield were Tony Deleo, Max Nugent, Ed Hearn, Gilber t Macias, Gwin Walker, Paul Fredricks, Manual Vas- quez, George Pauly, Leo Hayes and Taurino Ramirez. M n agers were Bill Searcy and Er- nest Mitchel. ( i J V. BASEBALL By “Sc op” Holtman Although they didn’t win all their games in the Tri-County league, the junior varsity gained a lot of experience and pleasure this year. Coach Cla- ude Booth put the Panther Cubs through their routine and states that the boys did well, considering that many of the teams they played were much more experienced. The sched- ule saw Pomona Emerson jun- ior high enter into unofficial competition, taking the place of Claremont. Pitchers for the squad were Elmer Olufson, Alvin Stewart and Gail Walker. All three boys did some good hurling. Captain Daniel Garcia and Walker worked behind the plate. First base saw Obert Bays and Jim Stumpf sharing honors. Stewart, Walker and Stumpf changed off at second. Third base brought action from Frank Esparza, Stumpf, Fred Elazaldie and Romero Arren- dondo and short stop saw Jim Pearson at work. Fielders were Jack Nicholson, Garcia, Espar- za, Mendoza, Stewart, Walker Olufson, Joe Dominguez and Arrendondo. Managers were Victor Edmondson and Fred Bickhart, Girls’ Athletics GIRLS ATHLETICS Speedball For the first time in years all the clas .es had full speedball learns. Interclass games proved to be more interest ng thtn usual. The seniors after several hard struggles won the championship. On February let the Corona girls were host- esses at a very successful pleyday. Baseball Baseball was the last sport this year. Much interest was shown in it. There was a record breaking turnout. The season was shorter this year but the competition was much keener. Basketball The girl s sports calender was started on Sept. 26 with much enthus asm when two teams from ea h class reported out for basketball. The season was very successful for the seniors. They won the interclass championship and also took the women faculty members in an extremely comical match. Volleyball Volleyball was run off at the sametime as speedball with two teams representing each class. The senior team was victorious in the interclass games. The season ended with a speedball and volleyball playdey here. Hockey One of the favorite sj.or s for all classes this year has been hockey. The season was opened with a field day competition at Riverside, with Corona running away with the honors. The playday was held at Chino with Corona being equally succ- essful. FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA To honor rural opportunities and develop those qualities of leadership a Future Farmer should possess.” Leadership and cooperation, ere the secrets of our organizations success. Unfortunately there aren’t enough chapter offices to go around for all the boy in order to bring out their ndividual qualities of leadership. It is very common for students to go through three years of high school and never obtain any of dairy. Yet. through out all this year ihe her the valuable experience to be had in holding office. It was in consideration of these fellows and our creed that made us Future Ferrrers. carry out the activity program, for 1938-39 in the manner that it was. After drawing up our fisical year activity program, we then formed as many committees as possible. These com- mittees had their own specific activities to per- form. Then our excutive board met and selected as many boys as there were commit- ees, to act as chairmen. Thus did we develop leadership and accomplish our activity goals. And now as in regards as to the functions of these committees. Early in the month of August of last year, weeks before school start- ed, the Leadership committee was already un- der way. They were cooperating with the exc -t ' ve board preparing two feature exhibits for Pomona Fair, which placed 1st and 2nd. Next th.s comm ttee made arrangements with the First National Bank in regards to indivi- dual loans. SimiltE neously came the tasks of preparing for the annual Citrus Field Day and developing participation in the var ' ous public speaking Contests. The F eld Day was highly successful and to top it off Corona Future Far- mers won many of the public speaking con- tests. Fred Childress, won a free trip to San r ranc.isco and T reasure Island. The last accom- plishment has been the promotion of successful judging teams in citrus, livestock, poultry and committees have accomplished just as much as has the former. The community Service Com- mittee cooperating with the United States Dept. Ag ' -.culture and Mr. A.E. Ganahl, on his ranch, have a splended soil erosion control program. The Cooperative Committee has been a direct asset to all members, in the deve- lopement of the Feed Coop. Machinery Coop, and Breeding Stock Coop. The Feed Coop, ob- ta ' ned feeds at a great saving for the boys. The? Machinery Coop, offers Tractorand implement services at a cheaper rate. The Breeding Coop, offers the services of two purebred boars and and one ram. The RecreationalCommittee has been busy providing recreation for our mem- bers at regular intervals. The Publicity Comm- ittee handeled the Future Farmers develope- ments in the local uewspapers and state Future Farmr magazine. TheExcutive board has been successful in holding regular monthly meetings: all year. And now, perhaps our highest goal of the year, the accomplishments of the Supervised Farming Program. Through the cooperation between the students of Agriculture and our instructor Mr. Crump we are able to set forth the figure of $1,138.68 as net profits arr.onr the boys for our last fiscal year of November 1937 to November 1938. We very sincerely expect a much larger figure to be tallied a the end of this fiscal year in November 1939. We honestly believe we are developing competent, aggressive, rural agricultural lea- dership.

To most of us this means the last of formal schooling for the mind We go from h ere straight to a world thats crueler than tis kind. Experience now will teach us from past actions we will learn To cope with life and its problems, problems light and stern. A glimpse of each year in passing we make for memory’s sake Though hard to recall for we are soon our eternal leave to take. Recollections bitter and sweet come to mind as we start to think Emotions are stirred within us as we stand here on the brink Of the chasm of lifes future, a future that’s so dim As we stand we can’t help but send a prayer to Him. Let ' s now go back in memory at least to the day when first the toll Of the bell on yonder schoolhouse brought us the call for roll. Then through the years we’ll upward cl ' mb till we come to this years thought Y ' et no more dear to us than those that recollections wrought. From kindergartens molding clay we went to train the eye. Learning to read, what a task it was, yet we really had to try. For what would we do in years to come without that knowledge pray? Nothing is the answer as we well know today. Steadily onward, upward, we went but there’s naught to pen unless It would be the time when the principal — but we’d rather not confess. In the seventh grade a new course lay open for us to pursue. A course to aid in lifes future field, in whate’er we chose to do. To single in one subject; science, art, mechanics, more Than we here can mention, you remember I am sure. Harder we strove to make these years count a vital part With a steady urge to spur us on from deep here in our heart. The picture of note books, pencils, pens, looms large in memory’s eye Symbols of study, long hours of same, yet here off the subject am I To deviate from the main course, to add a humorous note That stands ahead of serious theme, from rememberance now I ' ll quote: Twas in those years when first the thought of love o’ertook us to bring Its first taste of joy, how happy we were! Our hearts just plead to sing. Before we had had chance acquaintence, friendships by the score. But none like this, oh surely not, not since or before. The girl of a lifetime she was to us then. To her we made solemn vow That through the years we’d faithful be, we laugh as we think of it now. Now comes the vear when first the glance of the thrill of graduation. Was given us as we passed the mark, how truly great sensation! No, not like that of this year, but wait, there’s still two bars To cross before we reach this last, yet clearer thought it mars. The f ; rst year of high school how big we had grown! And yet we felt so small Alongside those others accustomed, we hardly ranked at all. To prove ourselves was quiet a task but we did as you see. We passed the test, hard though it was, and came along steadily. The second year a firmer hold and now we shared the post Of the Seniors in their upper realm. Now also could we boast. Study we did as never before preparing for that day. When we could fill the rulers shoes to let our burdens lay. And now at last we ' ve reached the year, thats strongest to the mind This the year we have not to search so many things we find That were new to us and what a thrill we have as we realize that this Is the turning point from where we go, to either make or miss. When first we started school last fall, took up our subjects deep, We felt a need as n’er before, to the course we’d have to keep. Preparatory courses carried on from years just past, A lead to college entrance, or regretfully to the last. Seniors subjects included those in which we’d have a need In country’s legislation, the governing life to lead. Co-operation’s assets we learned to full extent. By the law of give and take we realized what was meant. Social behavior a vital part of education’s quest Social functions this last year stand out o ' er all the rest Banquet, dances, gatherings, it matters not the kind. Each but a small example of what we’ll surely find. When out into the Life we go to become a moving part Of a world that’s ever turning. Our service now we’ll mart. As we reach education ' s turning point we can’t but help turn back To gaze on a past that’s been so full not one bit has been slack. Though we now go on, may these memories stay of the past twelve years in school M hope I hat this is a picture true and lay down my pen, my tool.
