CLASS HISTORY The class of ’47 was one of the most active to pass through Corona Senior High School. Led by President Bill Shannon, the incoming Sophomores were partici- pants in all school activities including Lemonville, Hi Jinks, and the various organizations. According to custom, the class decorated for the senior baccalaureate ceremony. Likewise, the students presented the Sophomore spring dance on April 6. On entering the junior year in high school, the class elected Pauline White as president. With an eye toward the junior-senior prom, the class of ’47 set a new precedent for raising funds by sales at Lemonville, football games, and the collection of dues. Leading the school in athletics, scholarship, music, and dramatics, the class placed three members on the Student Council, P. H. Phillips, Bill Shannon, and Business Manager of the Coronal, Ray Holton. On the stage, Bill Gist and Dixie McElhaney took leading roles in the popular comedy “And Came the Spring . The junior assembly in which the cast attempted to portray Hollywood stars meeting in a movie studio was hilariously received. To climax the year, the class of 47 honored the seniors with the banquet and prom, using a carnival theme. « After the fall election had named ' Leo Kroonen class president; Augustine Ramirez, Vice-president; Laraine Chapin, Secretary; Jerry Brandon, Treasurer; and Ann Jameson, Student Council Representative, the entire group led forth in all activities. As the days passed, many honors came to members of the class of 47. Dixie McElhaney and Barbara Tuthill won local and district oratorical contests, and eight seniors received life scholarship pins by mid-year. Representing the class on the Student Council were P. H. Phillips, Jerry Lillibridge, Dorothy Huffman, Vivian Nolan, Gordon Addison, Frank Witbeck, and Ann Jameson. In accordance with the use of “Time” and “Life” magazines in class routine, the senior assembly depicted “Life” by characterizing the magazine sections. Because of the added interest in dramatics, a new feature on the spring calendar was the senior play, “Dotty and Daffy”. Various senior home rooms sponsored the collection of food and clothing for two French orphans whom the school adopted. As the graduating class of 1947 leaves Corona High School, the enthusiasm, far-reaching goals, and high ideals of its members will be an inspiration to future students and underclassmen. SENIORS ON THE SLY Of the two greatest decisions a young person makes in life one is the choice of a life mate. Ten girls have already announced engagements or weddings, and undoubtedly several other seniors will be added to the list of brides and bridegrooms in the near-future. The entire faculty and student body extend congratulations and good wishes to ail the graduates who are entering into matrimony. JUNIORS Top row: C.

Three violinists also had the honor of playing in the All Southern California Symphony Orchestra which met in Santa Barbara. Mr. Milstein ' s orchestral group although small at present shows much promise for the future. GLEE CLUB This year’s high school glee club offered a great deal of service to the community, appearing in over thirty concerts. The maximum membership of fifty gave large concerts at Christmas and during Public School Education Week, also four broadcasts over KPRO. During the holiday season the work of the chorus was especially appreciated by the patients at the Naval Hospital. To climax the year the glee club participated in the Tri-County Miisic Festival in Colton. OFFICERS President . . . Vice-president Secretary ....

Under the direction of Miss Peter- son the cast of sixteen played before two well- pleased audiences. The plot was based on the return of a crazed science teacher who frightened the staff of a small college newspaper which was meeting in a college library. With Paul Dolan and Tom Robertson in the main parts and Sam Lowery, Mildred Reeb. and Pat Lawson in the smaller character roles, the audience was literally chilled to the bone. FOOTBALL BANQUET Presentation of 20-30 Club Award to Roland Attebery The annual football banquet spon- sored by the Corona Lions Club was held December 14 in the high school cafeteria. Jess Hill, former Corona and U. S. C. star and new assistant coach of the Trojans, gave an inspir- ing address to the boys and their dads. Gifts were presented to Coaches Waldrip, Heckert, and Bulkley by the captains of their respective teams. The evening was climaxed by the presentation of the 20-30 Club Trophy to Roland Attebery, star guard and the outstanding player of the year. Presentation of Gifts To Coaches by Team Captain, Bob Townsend LEMONVILLE Lemonville was held on Friday, November IS, this school year, but the traditional Lemonville was varied slightly, as it was felt a change was needed. A one-act play, under the direction of Miss Peterson, was the high light of the evening. Starred in the production, Fixers, Incorporated , were Bill Gist, Paul Dolan. Imogene Harris. Esther Rieve. Bill Dillon! and Carol Smith. Preceding the play was a short musical program composed of the high school glee club, orchestra, two vocal trios, and a twirler. The Juniors sponsored the traditional Lemon- ville Dance the same evening in the brilliantly decorated high school gymnasium where there was good music and lots of fun for all. YELL LEADERS NO. 6 ! ! ! CORONA HIGH HAS EVERYTHING Responsible for generating pep and enthusiasm at the ath- letic contests this year were our three peppy cheer leaders, Ar- deth Noble, Nelda Nolan, and Bobbie Berrong, and the danc- ing song leaders, Kathleen Bishop, Joan McCarty, and Charmayne Leeson. SONG LEADERS HI JINKS The 25th annual coronation of the Hi Jinks queen was held March 14 in the high school qvm. Pauline White was crowned queen by Charmavne Leeson, vice-president of the Girls League and she had as her court Jerry Brandon, Larcine Chapin, Dorothy Huffman, Dixie McElhaney, Vivian Nolan, and Botbe Ruth Stewart with Virginia Grant and Chester Farmer as flower girl and ring bearer. , , , . , , , , , . ,, A program of readings, tap and acrobatic dancing, and the high school boys quartette was presented for the enjoyment of the queen and her court. Everyone then danced in the setting of Moonlight and Roses to the music of Judd Chew ' s orchestra. ASSEMBLIES Our student body will long remember the fine selection of a ® sem . n . ch “® ci {° r hi d local stage. In addition to class, organization, and pep assemblies, the Student Council hired a well-rounded group of national assemblies. Also the idea of exchange assemblies was adopted. Talented small groups chosen y the students visited neighboring schools, and Corona was visited by similar groups, all of which promoted friendlier inter-school relations. In the Corona group were a mode quarteUe. a m.xed trio, a piano solo, a comedy speech, a saxophone solo, an Open the Door Richard skit, and the (he {ine assemblies were a group of students of which Tom Ashlock was chairman and Mrs. Hyatt, sponsor. TENNIS CLUB Mrs. Swanson, Smith, Bishop, Munoz Although- it was not an active organization this year, the tennis club was started this fall by a large number of tennis enthusiasts. The members elected several officers to keep up the interest in both boys ' and girls ' tennis. Their success is shown by the large number of players who competed for positions on the two teams.

Playoff Game VARSITY FOOTBALL The Corona High varsity footballers had one of their most successful football seasons in several years in 1946 as they won the co-championship of the Tri-County League, played in the district game of the C. I. F. play-off, and brought night football to Corona for the first time in history with the installa- tion of new lights on the local gridiron. The Panthers got off on the right foot as they blanked their old rivals, Colton, 13-0, in a practice game the night of September 27 at Colton. Celes Martinez and Bud Smith each scored a touchdown and Wayland Nel- son garnered the conversion. Colton never got close to the Corona goal line as the Panther line played terrific ball. Before one of the largest football crowds in Corona High history, the Panthers played their first home night game under the newly installed lights, but were defeated by Ana- heim, 2-0 in a practice game. The tight, close ball game saw the visitors make the only score of the game when they blocked a Corona punt in the second quarter, and it rolled out of the Panther end-zone. The locals got off to their first league game of the season as they whipped a Claremont eleven, 20-0 at Claremont on Oc- tober 11. After a scoreless first half, the Panthers went to work as P. H. Phillips, Lloyd Lay, and Smith scored touchdowns and Benny Finnell and Martinez conversions. The locals just had it all over the Wolf- Pack in this first game. Taking league game Number 2 by the same score, the Panthers trimmed Citrus at Citrus the next week. Martinez ' 90 yard punt return for a touchdown was the high- light as Smith and Finnell also scored t. d. ' s. Martinez kicked two conversions. Again the Corona linemen shared the limelights with the backs. Playing a Bonita team that was really hot, the Panthers lost their first league game of the season as they were defeated under the lights at Corona, 20-14, after putting on a spirited rally in the last quarter that saw them score both of their touchdowns, one ny Finnell and one by Smith. The Panthers offense didn ' t click until the final stanza and by that time it was too late. The locals regained their winning stride the next week as they walloped a Puente eleven, 31-6, before a home crowd u nder the lights. Smith scored three times with Martinez and Augie Ramirez each tallying once. The Corona line held Puente perfectly on running as Puente made their only score on a pass. Smith ran wild on the offense for Corona. By defeating Chino the next week at Chino, Corona took a co-championship with Bonita who had lost previously to Claremont. Each team had four league wins and one loss. Against Chino Roland Attebery scored the first Corona touchdown as he recovered Mar- tinez ' fumble in the end-zone. Martinez and Smith scored a touchdown apiece as Celes returned a Chino kick-off 74 yards for the score after the Cowboys had tied the score in the fourth quarter. Entering the C. I. F. play-offs after being voted over Bonita by the rest of the Tri- County League members, the Panthers played Laguna Beach there on November 26. It was a great football game that saw Laguna finally emerge victorious, 15-6. A scoreless firs! half, and the Laguna eleven returned the kickoff for a t. d. and got a safety in the third quarter to lead 9-0. The locals came back as Smith threw to Lay for 18 yards and a touchdown. Laguna scored again in the last quarter. The Panthers did their best and it looked as if they might win on several occasions in the hard fought, close game. Stalwarts on the line during the year were such men as Tom Allen at center, Attebery and Bill Shannon at guards, Lea Kroonen and Frank Nugent at tackles, and Lay and Finnsll at the ends. Also lettering in the line v ere Ray Lescault, Tom Ashlock. Art Kraft. Sam Lowery. Jerry Lillibridge Ruben Lemus, Andy Aguirre, Dick Rawson and Doug Garton. In the backfield Smith, Martinez, Nelson.

Townsend, captain of the team, played a steady outstanding brand of ball until injured after the Bonita game, and he v as out the remainder of the season. Other backfield letter winners were Danny Blake- ley, Walter Jenkins, Augie Ramirez, and John Wyrick. Other team members were Lindell Burnett, Tony Luna, Ruben Mejia, and Zane Young. To Coach S. E.

SEASON’S RECORD Corona 0 Fullerton 18 Corona 0 Anaheim 0 Corona 7 Citrus 0 Corona 7 Bonita 6 Corona Puente 13 Corona Chino Although they supposedly earned a co- championship with Citrus, the Corona High B football team found out in January that the wiong system of exponents was used, and thus through no fault of their own. the B boys had to forfeit their co-championship. However, Coach Dan Bulkley is to be con- gratulated in his 1946 B eleven for they showed they were a good football team, ineligible or not. Although winning only three gaires. los- ing two, and tying one, the Panthers won the cnes that counted and thus netted .hem- selves a share in the league crown until January. Five different men did the scoring for Corona with Bill Schramm leading ihe others with 12 points. Chump Gunderson had 7, Bob Cleveland and Bob Danieri each scor- ed 6 and Jack Russell scored one point. Fullerton dumped the B ' s in a practice game on October 3 by an 18-0 score but the Panthers improved the next week by holding an Anaheim B team to a scoreless tie in another practice game. One Co.ona drive in that game was stopped on the Ana- heim 4. The league season was opened in the right way as the Panthers dumped a Citrus team 7-0 on October 17 at Corona. A pass to Jack Kroonen who lateralled to Russell set up the lone score which wes made by Cleveland a little later; Russell scored the conversion. A thrilling 72-yard-run by Danieri gave Corona its touchdown in their game with Bonita with Gunderson kicking the extra point to give the Coronans a 7-6 victory over the Bearcats. The Corona line saved the day with Harvey Simpson blocking the Bon- ita kick that would have tied the score. After a scoreless first half, the Panthers went to town in the second to top Puente on Hallowe ' en by a 18-13 score. Schramm scor- ed two touchdowns and a pass from Lloyd Cullins to Gunderson made the other to put the game on ice. Chino came to town on November 7 determined to get a share of the league title and did so by pinning Corona ' s ears back 26-0. Captain Allen, Cleveland, Danieri, Schramm, and Russell were tops in the backfield. Star- ring on the line were Chump Gunderson, Jack Kroonen, Mount Parks, Mike Lugo, Harvey Simpson, Dick Garton, Dick Harter, Odell Rogers, and Vernon Grassie.

I. F. playoffs were the accomplishments of the 1946-47 edition of the Corona High basketball team, as S. E. Waldnp coached them through a terrific season. Led by their captain, Barney Parks, who starred on both offense and defense, the Coron- ans won eight and lost two league games. Chump Gunderson and Bennie Finnell were the high scorers of the Corona outfit with Dave Rawson and Lloyd Lay — each of whom did not play the whole season — right behind. Odell Rogers, Leo Kroonen, and Henry Moreno were the outstanding guards, with each starting some games. The varsity was bolstered after the second Citrus game when several B men, Rawson, Rogers, Celes Martinez, Walter Jenkins, and Roland Attebery, who were found out ' o have too many exponents to continue to play B basketball. The Panthers took two practice games to open the season when they beat Sherman, 39-17, and the Legion Cougars. 30-24. During Christmas vacation the locals played in the Chino Invita- tional Tourney where they defeated Pomona. 29-2S, and then lost to South Pasadena (later runner-up in the C. I. F. playoffs), 46-25. They won their first league game on January 10 when they topped Citrus. 44-34, on the home court as Gunderson scored 18 points, Finnell 10. and Lay 9. With Finnell tossing in three set-ups in the last minute. Corona defeated Bonita. 33-32, the next week as Bennie scored 14 points and Chump 6. The Coronans ran into some trouble at Puente on January 17 when they dropped a 31-26 deci- sion. Lay and Parks each countered seven points. Corona went to Chino the next Tuesday and gained a 33-23 win as Parks scored 8 and Lay 7. The Panthers completed the first round of their schedule with a 36-22 win over Clare- mont as Gunderson made 12 and Lay 8. A practice game with Perris saw Corona nosed out in an overtime, 57-56, as Chump again led the locals with 19 points. In a game that was disputed because Citrus allegedly let the clock run too long, and a foul was called on Corona during the time when the game should have been over. Citrus made both free shots and won, 36-35. although the game was pro- tested. Parks turned in 13 points for the Cor- cnans. Corona bounced Bonita on February 4 with a 45-30 win as several B men joined the varsity, including Rawson, who scored 15 points. Finnell made 12 and Lay 10. Corona got revenge for their first loss as they whipped Puente, 64-28, as Gunderson scored 21 points, Rawson 13, and Finnell 10. Next victim for the Coronans was Chino who fell before the Panthers. 38-24. Rawson notched 12 points for the winners. Corona ' s final league game was their 31-21 win over Claremont as Gunderson put in 15 points. This game gave Corona a league co-championship with Citrus. A game was arranged at Chalfey between Corona and Citrus to determine which would represent the league in the C. I. F. play-offs. The Panthers gained revenge for their disputed loss when they bounced Citrus 36-22 as Raw- son scored 14 and Gunderson 10. To reach the C. I. F. play-offs at Whittier, Corona had to play the Riverside County League champions. Hemet, at Perris on February 27. Staving off a last minute burst, Corona defeated Hemet by a 27-25 score. The Panthers took time out from the C. I. F. playoffs when they defeated the faculty, 38-25. They went to Whittier College on March 9 for the play-offs where they met the Bay League champions, Redondo Beach, who defeated the Coronans 45-26. The Panthers held Redondo on even terms the first half, 13-12, but the beach boys- — who later took third place in the tourney — and their superior height took over the second half. Attebery stole the show for Corona wiih 10 points while Finnell had 6. Gunderson and Rawson were not hitting as they made only two points apiece. Leading scorer for the season was Gunderson who had 142 points for 10 league games, two practice games and three play-off games. Fin- nell was next with 102 while Parks had 79, Lay 78, Rawson 52, Moreno 20, Kroonen 18, Rogers 12, Wayland Nelson 11, Attebery 10, Gordon Addison 7, Frank Nugent 6. Pat Carlton 6. and N. D. Blaylock 5. Leading Corona defense men were Parks and Rogers, first-string guards, and their subs, Kroonen, Moreno, and Addison. The offensive records speak for themselves. Lettermen included Parks, Gunderson, Finnell. Rawson, Rogers, Kroonen, Nelson, Addison. Moreno and Bob Sanford, Manager. Completing the squad were Carlton, Lay, Jenkins, Attebery, Nugent, Martinez and Art Kraft. “B” BASKETBALL Top Row: Grassie, Burnett, Lillibridge, Danieri, Coach Bulkley.

Total scoring saw Rawson tops with 106 points, McGregor next with 83 points, Grassie third with 79, and Phillips fourth with 75. Next were Attebery with 48, Martinez with 42, Mike Lugo with 23, Kroonen with 22, Allen with 18. Rogers with 14, and Angelo Lunetta with 12. Of course the players who went to varsity played in only seven of these games. As a team. Corona averaged 46.8 points to their op- ponents ' 22.5 — a wonderful average in any- body ' s league. The small number of points that their oppon- ents scored is a tribute to the locals ' defense. Attebery and Rogers were tops at this in the early part of the year, and Kroonen, Neil Lilli- bridge, and Harvey Simpson handled the job well after they left. Phillips, the captain for 1946-47 was superb on both offensive and de- fensive play. The scoring records speak well for the offensive values of Rawson, McGregor, Grassie, and Phillips. Because the mix-up in exponents was dis- covered during midseason, and the team had to forfeit the first five games in which they used ineligible players, the Corona High B team was robbed of another B basket- ball championship although they won every game they played during the season under the tutorship of Coach Dan Bulkley. The first laurel won by the local five was the handsome trophy awarded them at the Anaheim Invitctional B Tournament as winners of that tourney. They won four straight games defeating an Anaheim B five, 34-15, in the finals. Dave Rawson led the scoring with 12 points while Walt Jenkins had 8. Lettermen included the following: McGregor. Grassie, Phillips, Lillibridge. Lugo, Simpson, Danieri. Kroonen, Lunetta, Burnett, Allen, Manager Frank Smith and Ex-B ' s Rawson, Attebery, Rogers and Martinez. Completing the squad were Howard Whitney, Bob Cleveland and Leon Kelley. The Panthers won two practice games, de- feating Sherman, 40-13, and Red ' s Sporters, 32-27. before opening their league season with Citrus on January 10. The locals won as Celes Martinez made nine points, Rawson eight, and Roland Attebery seven. At Puente the next week, it was Corona, 53-23, with Rawson leading with 14, Attebery with 11, and P. H. Phillips with 10. Continuing their winnings ways, they swamped a Chino five on January 21 with a 48-17 victory. Rawson was tops with 16 points while diminutive Morrell McGregor added nine more. The Coronans completed their first half of the schedule with a 59-13 win over Claremont as Rawson made 15 and Jack Krooner. eight. A practice game at Perris saw Corona win again, 64-24, as Rawson made 16, Phillips 10, and Martinez 9. At this point, the exponents mistake was discovered and resulted in the first five games being forfeited although Claremont did not accept their forfeit so Corona lo3t only four games that way. Going over to varsity were Rawson, Attebery, Odell Rogers, Jenkins, Alvin Bradley, and Martinez. Coach Bulkley gathered hos forces, though, and led by Vernon Grassie, who scored 19 points, McGregor who scored 14, and Phillips with 10, they walloped Citrus by a 54-32 count. Continuing right on, they bounced Bonita 37-29 as Phillips and McGregor each made 11. Puente was their next victim as they fell before a 36-20 count as McGregor got 12 and Phillips 10. They had their closest game on February 11 when they edged Chino 35-31 as Mc- Gregor tallied 13 and Grassie 11. The Corona men finished their season with a bang as they thumped Claremont, 58-15. Grassie made 16. and McGregor and Dick Allen each 10. VARSITY TRACK Top Row: Nelson, Allen, Carlton, Rogers, Moreno. Lescault, Wilson, Rawson, Finnell, Mgr. Eells, N. D. Blaylock.

Taking third place at Tri-County and capturing several nice dual meets, the Corona High varsity tracksters had a good season under the tutorship of Coach Dan Bulkley and are locking forward to an even better year next spring. Although not doing quite as well as they had expected to do at Tri-County this year, the locals nevertheless finished third with 33 points behind Bonita with 46 and Chino with 43W and ahead of Citrus with 23, Claremont with 1 9 Vi and Puente with 15. They also had the satisfaction of beating both Bonita and Chino in dual meets. Taking first places in the league meet for Corona were Roland Attebery in the mile run and Frank Nugent in the broad jump. Attebery won a thrilling race when he came from behind to beat Pearce oi Bonita in 4:47.2 seconds. Nugent made his best leap of the season to win that event at 21 feet 3 inches. Danny Blakeley took seconds in both sprints, the 100 and 220, for Corona, as he was edged by Russi of Bonita in both races. Third place winners for Corona were Dave Rawson in the 440 and Odell Rogers in the Mile. (Incidentally, Rogers and Attebery are the only men to graduate this year who placed at Tri-County for Corona.) Celes Martinez won a fourth in the 100 yard while N. D. Blaylock and Tom Allen won fifths — Blaylock in the pole vault and Allen in the high jump and 880.

FOOTBALL LIGHTS This year will long be remembered in the annals of C. H. S. for the beginning of night football. Through the work of the coaches, faculty, students, and townsfolk. Corona was able to construct a system of lights for the athletic field that is comparable with any school of equal size in Southern California. Encouraged by ihe Lions Club and other community organizations, the student body started a prolonged ticket selling campaign. Through ticket sales, game receipts, and contributions the school was able to pay approximately two-thirds of the $5000 debt. Early in October the town ' s football enthusiasts enjoyed the thrill of viewing Corona ' s first night football game. JUNE 1 1 7 vScxn Tlon fu e 1 Jqc Thu Fr ' 5a± 1 a.
