' 0 - DEDICATION It is the custom of the members of the Coronado High School Annual Staff to dedicate the year book to some person or persons who have presented the community with outstanding achievements and improve- ments connected with the Coronado Schools. This year it is with privilege and honor that we dedicate the Poppy to the Coronado Parent- Teachers ' Association. Their tireless efforts and helpful guidance have created an appreciative attitude among the students. We thank them for the many contributions and improvements which work toward their goal: to make Coronado Schools un- excelled scholastically, soci- ally and athletically. ' Betty.

This year has been a happy one and we have tried to picture through the pages of this book interesting, hunnorous, and every day things that we hope in the future will bring pleasant memories to the Student Body of 1940.

McCrary, President; Mr. Atchibald, Mr. Fawcett. Under the Headship of Captain McCrary, our Board of Education has spent countless hours improving the buildings and directing general educational policy. The nnost obvious and tangible sign of the Board ' s excellent work is in the superlative quality of the new buildings, from the library to the gymnasium. Of still greater importance is the increasing educational growth of the school. For the countless hours they have spent in determining the quality, size, and fitness of our buildings, for their excellent non- political point of view, for their tenacity of purpose in creating educational standards for Coronado, we are exceedingly grateful.

COMMERCIAL Under the efficient instruction of Miss McAuliffe and Miss Fosdiclc. students interested in the business world may attend such helpful courses as typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and business training. DOMESTIC SCIENCE Although a small department, nev- ertheless the sewirq classes of Coro- nado High School have, under the supervision of Mrs. Freeman, turned out many fine things. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT A wide variety of courses are of- fered in the English department. Under the leadership of Mr. Burge, a capable staff comprising Mr. Mi- chaels, Mrs. Woodruff, Miss Kelley. Mrs. Freeman, Mr. Reese, and Miss McAuliffe, instructs the students in the various courses, including Public Speaking.

STUDEIT BODY Leadership Is not only the result of inner strength but also of intense work and a resolve to perform the duties that are confronted. This year our student body officers have been a most capable group. The manner in which they have functioned reflects credit not only upon themselves but also upon the school. This year our student body president was Robert Carrothers, a powerful sandy haired athlete who proved to be as strong and dependable in student affairs as he did on the basketball and tennis courts. Bob is liked by all for his unassuming and friendly personality. Bob Carrothers, President Twelve GIIILS ' LEAOM CABINET Left to risht: Mary Lou Miles, Betty Eurtow, Marj.j Mathewson, Mildred Masek, Miss Leslie Kelley (adviser), Suzanne Archibald, Mary Ann Bratz, Mrs. Arline Niedermeyer (adviser), Ann Dickey, Marjorie Woods. Shirley Worden, Lois Osborn. The Girls ' League, advised by Mrs. Niedermeyer, the Dean of Girls, and Miss Kelley, has done a great deal this year to promote a friendly attitude among the girls in school. Although all the girls of the student body belong to the League, its activities are directed by a cabinet composed of elected members from each class; several of these girls represented our school at local and state conventions. The year has been filled with many outstanding social functions. The first was a Get Acquainted Party for the Freshmen in the form of a carnival. Hotel del Coronado served as a setting for the Bridge Tea and the Annual Alumni Dance at which the Beauty Queen was crowned. Baskets were fixed for poor families at Christmas, and the year was ended by a break- fast party given on the beach. The Tiga is a Freshman and Sophomore girls ' league formed this year. Their main activity, the Mother ' s Day Breakfast given in the school cafeteria, proved a huge success.

The Executive Committee is the most important single committee, being composed of faculty and Student Body officers. Entrusted to its care is the difficult job of co-ordinating Student Body purchases and Student Body expenditures. The Committee ' s financial questions are handled from the Budget, whose preparation is a school wide event. Appropriations for more than thirty activities, from minor sports to honor societies, are made annually. The Committee consists of the Student Body officers, the presidents of each class, the Girls ' League president, and the Lettermen ' s Club representative. Mr. Niedermeyer, faculty budget expert and superb solver of difficult problems, has earned the school ' s deepest gratitude for his work.

This body not only tries offenders asainst Student Body laws, but hears appeals from students who feel they have been unjustly punished. Under the supervision of Mr. Shoemaker, the Council has efficiently performed its many duties. This year ' s members are: Bob Carrothers, President; Tom Rice and Beebe Mathewson, Seniors; Mildred Masek and John Mathewson, Juniors; Suzanne Archibald and Donald Carpenter, Sophomores; Eleanor Craig and Dick Gowan, Freshmen.

The Radio Club, under the direction of Mr. Michaels, has, in its brief span of life, done remarkably well and supplied its nnembers with many entertaining hours. Contact with other amateurs in all parts of the world has pro- vided interest for a number of ambitious students, and the mem- bership next year should be largely increased. Another organization which has been unusually popular for its first year is the Tri-Y. Competition for membership has been keen due to the limited number of girls who can belong and the high standards that are upheld. Sponsoring the Junior Assemblies, a hay ride, and interesting weekly meetings have provided entertainment for the members. In order to increase their accomplishments, the Fresh- men and Sophomores of the Girls ' League were organized into the Tiga Club. Already it has made itself a vital part of the girls ' activities by sponsoring the Mother ' s Day Breakfast and other social functions. It has promoted a- friendly spirit among the lower classmen and should be of invaluable aid to the incoming Freshmen. The older organizations have progressed and kept in steady pace with the new clubs. Among these are the Spanish Club, Bicycle Club, hHi-Y, Intermediate Hi-Y, and musical groups. All have been successful toward providing the students with pleasant outside hours. SUMMARY OF THE n Nineteen BEAUTY U E E  With an infectious smile and a charmins nnanner to assist her gift of beauty, none could wear more fittingly the crown of beauty queen than Betty Burrow. Although Betty would be a valuable addition to our campus for her appearance alone, she can also be credited with brains, talent, and a winning personality. The second consecutive Junior to hold the title of Beauty Queen, she has been active in many branches of school affairs and in other organizations. The Juniors are proud of the fame she has brought and will bring to the class of ' 41. The entire school wishes her the success that is rightfully hers. Twenty AST I ' fllMlLU BOY Art Blaisdell was selected this year as the most popular boy in school. His quiet manner and sood nature have secured for him a permanent place in our esteem, hie has been out- standing in sports activities throughout his high school career, starring in basketball, football, track, baseball, and badminton. Anyone who has seen Art racing down the field to a touchdown, or looping the balls into a basket, has had a thrill. We know that he will make good. Twenty-one GIRL FIRST CITIZEN In the time when the responsibility of citizenship was never greater, Coronado High School was not surprised that the qualities necessary for Girls ' First Citizen were recognized in Gene Fawcett, and is proud to bestow the honor upon her. Blessed with a power to organize and the persistence to see a job through, she has held office, participated in sports, aided in the publication of the school paper and annual, and in other ways proved herself fitted to the title. Gene ' s life, to her admiring friends, looks and is, a thrilling circus of responsibility and fun, and the entire school sincerely hopes she will continue to enjoy it. Twenty-two II in N IIS T (] i T I z n The selection of a first citizen both in high school and in the world presupposes certain qualifications: sincerity, honesty, ability, and an aptitude in getting along with one ' s fellows. In choosing Bob Carrothers as this year ' s First Citizen, the high school students feel they have not only nnade a wise decision, but confirmed a wide report concerning one who is both a good comrade and a leader. Certainly Bob has won many national tennis honors. His trophies would fill a room. But he has also won the Coronado students ' admiration and respect. Twenty-three COROynO (]LOSE-[IPS KENNETH RUTHERFORD, whose wit and charm of manner is undeniable, has shown him.self to be quite a worthy addition to the portals of C.H.S. Althoush only a sophomore, by his thorough and diligent work he has made himself known and appreciated by all those with whom he has come in contact. DOROTHY DOT RUNDE is perhaps one of the hardest, cheerfulest, and best workers in C.H.S. Dot has been on the job every minute and has shown her capability by her efficient work as a ticket auditor. As a member of both Annual and Echo staffs, she has proved many times over her dependability and her willingness to cooperate. JEANNE MERRITT. An outstanding student, an efficient, cheerful and willing worker; these are the characteristics that make her a most welcome addition to the student body. Her work on the Poppy has proved valuable while her friendly and unassuming manner has gained her many friends at Coronado High. MILDRED ANN MASEK has become one of the really shining lights of our school. When anything needs to be done, whether in athletics or school work, it ' s always Millie who does it, and who does it in an unquestionably fine manner. Her presence is felt and heartily welcomed wherever she is and where- ever she goes. ENID BALL ' S name ranks high in the list of those students who are really dependable. Her quiet, willing work on the Echo and other school activities has earned her a place among those who have built up the good name of C.H.S. We wish her luck and hope that she keeps up her good work. Twenty-four CORIiyUII aOSEllPS JOHNSON ADELBERT MATHEWSON, known by all students as Johnny, is one of C.H.S. ' s most outspoken individuals. His say personality has gained for hinn the offices of junior class vice-president and vice-president of the Hi-Y. Perhaps it is his fighting spirit that keeps hinn on the course as captain of the golf team. He is a member of the honor society too, which is doing right well for a fellow who loves fun as much as Johnny does. PATRICIA ANNE BEHRENS, familiarly known as Pat, has accomplished in her first year at C.H.S. what many students fail to do in four years. She is Business Manager of the Poppy and was admitted to the C.S.F. with the highest number of points and definite ability in the school. DOROTHY GEORGIANA ERNEST, a tall blond senior, nicked with the name of Dot, is so scholastically efficient that she is a member of both the C.S.F. and Honor Society. By winning numerous contests she has established the reputation as one of California ' s finest speakers. She ' s an artist too. EMILV ELIZABETH BEnY STEVENS in the two years she has been here, has proved herself an invaluable person to have around. She hasn ' t worked in a blaze of glory, but has made her presence felt and welcomed on numerous committees. Because of her membership in many of the school organizations, things have been done with an all-around greater success than ever before. PEDRO CRUZ SIQUENZA. usually referred to as Pete, has been our most efficient A.S.B. treasurer this year of 1939-40. Aside from being outstanding in track we ' ve heard him play a clarinet that ' s really worth listening to, Goodman style.

The creation of a school newspaper is a long, com- plicated, and infinitely rewarding task. That thrivingly independent little sheet, our Echo, appears regularly, to the great satisfaction of the student body. Under the editorship of Marjorie Woods and her sub-editor, Edythe Thurber, this year ' s paper shows improvement over those of previous years. Together with a news policy. Miss Fosdick has undertaken the actual printing processes, thus aiding enormously in the actual physi- cal makeup of the sheet, which by her help, has been able to do more finished art work. Mr. Burge, adviser for the Echo, finds that the present staff is capable of doing unaided almost the entire series of opera- tions necessary to publication. Twenty-six 1 9 H POPPY Through the sincere efforts of the staff, adviser, and editor to make this year ' s Poppy a lasting re- membrance of Coronado High, an annual has been produced which should well accomplish that purpose. The expert supervision of Mr. Schaefer, adviser, the diligent work of Gene Fawcett, editor, and the co- operation of the members of the staff have combined in an endeavor to improve and surpass previous issues of the Poppy.

Twenty-seven UR Mrs. Woodruff, Director Winning new laurels this year, Mrs. Beulah Goring Woodruff, director of dramatics, showed samples of her splendid direction in La Posada and June Mad. PLAVS. La Posada, a one-act play of Christmas in Mexico, provided us with an interesting and entertaining as- sembly before the holidays. June Mad, noted for its bad luck which caused several delays, produced a result well worth waiting for. It was a story of adolescence and its problems, filled with laughs and dramatic scenes too. Each member of the well-chosen cast handled his part with perfect style, making the play one of the high-lights of the year. PAGEANT. Among the outstanding events of the dramatic year was the pageant, given in commemoration of the comple- tion of the new school improvement project. Composed and directed by Mrs. Clara Bell Cutler, its success was due to her able supervision. Students of both the high school and grammar school participated in the program, which was an allegory entitled The Pursuit of Happiness.

During the past year the band member- ship has increased materially, and has raised its status from a band to an orchestra, playing not only marches and popular music but classical pieces. The band has made many appearances in which the members proudly displayed their new uniforms. Mr. Ptacek has also opened up and further developed many other fields of music, such as Glee Club, Coronets, and the Brass Choir. This is Mr. Ptacek ' s first year at Coro- nado. We know his future years will continue to be as successful as his first. Bad row, left to right: Marjone Klass. Gene Ftosio, Ann Baird, Milo Woodworth, Ralph Pyle, Joe Moran. Bimmie Burwell.

Because of their broad repertoire and fine performances, they are in demand not only in the school but in the community as well. The competition for membership in the group is seen from the fact that the girls are chosen carefully from the entire feminine ensemble of the chorus. Credit is largely due to the Interest and able direction of Mr. Ptacek. The members include: Gertrude Lowthian, Ann Baird, Leona Omar, Martha Kiefer, Alta Mae King, Fanchon Acosta, Betty Gene hienderson, Mary Clarke, Marie Math- ewson, Lois Osborn, Alper Vestal. MAJORETTES Modern high school bands must be equipped not only to delight the ear but the eye. The Majorettes, stepping high, precede the band in a twinkle of white and green satin, and a fine flour- ish of batons. The spectators cheer loudly and we ' re sure it is not only the band they applaud. Left to right: Muriel Sonnabaum, Gilberts King. Elaine Fousse.

Ptacek, the Girls ' Glee Club has made much progress toward its goal of perfection. The thirty mem- bers have provided music for many civic and school functions this year. Their first program was a Christmas Assembly at which they sang Christmas Carols. Their second performance was a concert for the. Veterans of Foreign Wars held in the Grammar School Auditorium. The girls ' songs were enjoyed by those who attended the Girls ' League Tea on March second at hHotel del Coronado; also the spring high school assembly for that date. The club sang at a meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association on the fourth of March, and their final performance was in the form of a musical concert given during Education Week in the auditorium. Although the Glee Club met only twice a week this year, ability to perform enhanced the popularity of this organization materially. Thirty-two E n E f I B L E N Two major instrumental ensem- bles were formed this year using the personnel of the Coronado hiigh School Band. The Brass Choir and Saxophone Ensemble played at many different occa- sions throughout the school year and were well received. Membership into the two or- ganizations is determined by the player ' s ability as a performer. The members of the Brass Choir w.th their respective instruments are: first cornet, Dick Christie and Kenneth Kiefer; second cornet, Buzz Rogers and Jack McCarson; third horn, Charles Otis and An- thony Stall; baritone. Bob Norris; trombone, John Weston; bass, Joe Moran. The members of the Saxophone quintet are: solo alto saxophone, Mary Ocskay; second alto saxophone, Mary Brown and Dexter Lanois; tenor saxophone, Fritz Sandermann; and baritone saxophone, Karleen Koehler.

HOPR SOCIETY The hlonor Society is composed of students whose scholarship gives them four B ' s or better in four solids, and is discreetly proud of its members and of their records. It is interesting to note that the Juniors and Seniors are tied for the greatest number of members while the Freshmen are second and the Sophomores last. But whatever the order they come In, the important fact to note is the large number of students belonging to it. First row, left to right: Marjorie Woods, Anne Beasley, Gene Fawcett.

TRI-Y This year has seen the formation of a new organization under the name of Tri-Y. A branch of the Y. W. C. A., its main principle is to bring forth the best in mind, body, and soul. During the course of the year the girls have done many fine, noteworthy things. Under the guidance of Mary hHarris, adviser; Betty Lee Erwin, president; Beebe Mathewson, vice presi- dent; and Laurel Wellington, secretary-treasurer, the Tri-Y has become an outstanding organization.

Thirty-six THE SPANISH CLUB This year the Spanish Club has become one of the largest clubs in the school. It now has a monthly attendance of forty or fifty. During the year the club has given many parties, both for its members and for the whole school. Included among these were two initiations, a Hallowe ' en dance, a Christmas dance for the entire school, a Leap Year party, a Skating Party, and a lecture and movies on South America. RADIO CLUB One of the most unusual and interesting organizations at Coronado High School is the Radio Club, formed this year as a result of the efforts of Mr. Michaels. A licensed amateur radio station, the Coronado Club has made contact with different countries from all over the world and has proved a fascinating occupation for its many enthusiastic members. The club, beside creating a short wave station, has also erected a large directional antennae on the school. INTERMEDIATE Hl-V This group is composed of those boys who are not quite old enough for the Senior Hi-Y. However, they follow much the same procedure and customs of the older group. This year they enjoyed several potluck dinners, a camping trip and a beach party. The officers are: Fujio Mayeda, President; John Weston, Vice Presi- dent; Joe Ames, Secretary; Don Carpenter, Treasurer. THE SOCIAL COMMITTEE This year a new committee was added to the administration of Coronado High School, the Social Committee. Its main purpose is to arrange the dates for social activities of the school so that there will be no conflicts. In the past such a committee would have been entirely superfluous, but with the growing social activity, it becomes very necessary.

Thirty-seven DIVISION THREE ' MX. ilTHLETin The sports year of 1939-1940 is one to be looked back upon with pride, because of the outstanding performances turned in by the athletics in interscholastic competition. Despite the smallest student body in the league, coaches Niedermeyer and Callister whipped the available material together, and an outstanding amount of work was accom- plished. The football team occupied third place in the league stand- (1 IT If If I f| 17 ings, but bad luck in the form of |J jj| ||| ]| |[ [ injuries and ineligibilities ham- pered their style. Ail Till? VTiR The Varsity Basketball team, UT llllj IL lR playing exceptional ball, easily streamlined its way to the Championship. Only three of the twenty-three games played during the season were lost. The Varsity track team couldn ' t quite muster enough points in dual meet competition and were twice nosed out by a one-point margin, ended up in fifth place. The Bee track men retained their championship for the fourth straight year. The tennis team under Mr. Reese easily conquered all league competition to retain their championship for the third straight year. The newly formed golf team in an informal schedule took on any and all teams and did well. Because of the new gym, badminton, ping pong, volley- ball, horse shoes, boxing, and gymnastics under the direc- tion of Mr. Callister and Miss Kelley were introduced for students to play after school. These sports have proved very successful and a lot of fun for students unable in the past to find anything to occupy their afternoons. The Girls ' Athletic association, under the excellent leadership of Miss Kelley, progressed enormously in their activities. A well rounded and much improved schedule of events was offered, the girls meeting every Wednesday afternoon to enjoy interclass competition in a variety of sports.

They ended their league schedule with six wins and six loses. The big moment for the Bees came when they upset Escondido, the league champions, and almost beat them the second time. Sevy Molino was elected honorary cap- tain and most valuable player. Non-league games were plentiful, but the Bees only won one non-league game, the one with the Stanley Andrews reserves. The Bees ended up in third spot in the ladder, be- hind Escondido and Grossmont. B BASKETBALL SCORES Coronado....32 Nisht School 14 Coronado....3 1 Oceanside - 4 Coronado ...

Despite this handicap a strong team was developed. In two meets the margin of victory for the opponents was only one point in each instance. The Bees finished the season in a blaze of giory by winning the championship of the league. The Cees finished in the lower bracket but pro- duced two outstanding performers in the persons of Jack Clarke and Yo Koba. Jack put the eight pound shot 44 feet, 3 4 inches for a new school record. Yo had the best effort for the broad jump in Southern California. Outstanding performer for the A squad was Fritz Sandermann who won both the 220 and 100 yard dashes in the All Metro league meet. Another out- standing performance was turned in by Bud Ingle, who ran the high hurdles in 9.5 seconds to tie the school record. In the B division Henry Bramstedt ran the 100 yard dash in 10.2 seconds to set a new school record in his division. Bill Sherer tied the C record of 10 feet in the pole vault.

METRO- CHlMPIOiS For the second consecutive year the Islanders annexed the Metro tennis crown, with Bob Carrothers extending his undefeated streak in Metro play to four years. Under the coaching of Mr. Reese, the teann went undefeated throughout the successful season. Bob Crawford and Jack Carrothers alternated at No. 2 position, and Ezra Parker and Bill Johns played three and four spots respectively. The doubles teams were changed frequently as were the singles positions, thus giving every member of the squad a chance to play. Besides the Metro teams, Hoover and San Diego State ' s strong net squads were also defeated, thus giving the Islanders supremacy in San Diego county. This year ' s team proved itself on every occasion and thus establishing it as the best team ever tumed out by Coronado. Fifty-four IIR TEIIIS TOURMMEiT The Annual Ink Tennis Tournannent is an event eagerly anticipated by some two hundred tennis players representing schools of San Diego County. This year our representatives, Bob Carrothers, Jack Carrothers and Marie Jacks, were successful in winning the championships in their respec- tive divisions. This is a feat which has never been previously accomplished by the players of any one school. Through the generosity of Mr. Ink, the sponsor of this tournament, these three champions will participate in the national championships which will be held at Culver, Indiana, this summer. We are indeed proud of the tennis prestige that is being brought to Coronado High by these three stellar athletes. Left to right: Bob Carrothers. Marie Jacks. Jact Corrothcrs.

GOLF TEAM This year Coronado has added still another sport to its already long list of athletics. Golf is this new sport, which even in its infancy has proved not only very popular but very successful as well. Under the guidance of Mr. Foley, coach, and John Mathewson, enthusiast and captain, the team has fared very well, tasting defeat but once. Their biggest match of the year from which they emerged victorious was played with the Alumni. If the present is any indication of what golf teams in the future will be, then it is pretty certain that before very long Coronado will be boasting of its championship golfers.

The Girls ' Athletic Association of Coronado High School, with Beebe Mathewson, president, has begun this year a new intramural schedule which has proved highly successful, following a system which is in practice in a great number of the high schools in Southern California, being organized into class groups: Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. This change in organization has required a change in the point-award system. The girls receive a certain number of points for reporting every Wednesday afternoon for G.A.A. From the groups reporting, the class teams are chosen. Any girl who is chosen on the first team for her class is awarded an additional number of points. If she is chosen as a member of a second team, she is awarded a smaller number of points. The girls from each class elect a captain for their team who also receives additional points. From those girls engaging in each sport, an all-Coronado team is Fifty-seven chosen in the following manner. The senior girls elect one team of those girls from the junior, sophomore, and freshman classes whom they consider outstanding in the sport then in season. The junior girls choose such a team from among the seniors, sophomores and freshmen; the sophomores choose a team from the seniors, juniors, and freshmen; and the freshmen choose from the three upper classes. The adviser then considers the four teams presented and chooses one team, the members of which are pre- sented with emblems representative of the sport in question. The activities presented to the G.A.A. this year have been volley- ball, speedball, softball, and basketball. A girl is made a member of the G.A.A. as soon as she has obtained 100 points. She is awarded a green and white chenille C when she has earned 150 points. On earning 275 points she is awarded a green chenille star, and for 400 points, a gold pin. The girl earning the highest number of points during her four years is awarded a silver cup upon which her name is engraved. She keeps the cup during the summer months and then returns it to the high school where it becomes a perpetual trophy.

Fifty-eisht GIRLS TEMIS Always an active group, the girls tennis teams have especially gained in fame and popularity this year in one of their most successful seasons. They have participated in many tournaments, locally and with Gross- mont and La Jolla. One of their outstanding members, Marie Jacks, was winner of the feminine division of the Ink Tournament, bringing new laurels to her team. Miss Borevitz and Miss Kelley proved very inter- ested and efficient advisers, while Frances Kendall quite capably fulfilled the duties of captain.

It also was so well liked, that a double round robin tournament was scheduled. The competition in this game be- tween the classes was exceptionally good and it was only with the great- est effort that the Junior class once again emerged the victors. Although not quite so fast as other sports, softball was still very popular and at the end of the season many fine players had been devel- oped. VOLLEYBALL Volleyball, despite the severe com- petition it received from the newer sports did not, nevertheless, lose any of its popularity. In fact it was so well liked by everyone, that a double round robin tournament was pro- vided for. Many fine teams were developed, but the victorious Juniors soon added another sport to their list of wins and were given a victory dinner by the other three classes. All the games played were charac- terized by a fine feeling of cheerful- ness and good sportsmanship. Standing, left to right: Lois Osborn, Beebe Mathewson, Dorothy Runde, Midori Koba.

The girls found that its complexity provided them with the fastest and most furious game they encountered during the whole year. All the teams played well but the class that finally worked its way to the top to emerge as champions was the Juniors. fifi ti( ■A « f.li tn Standing, left to right: Hazelle Bennett, Beebe Mathewson, Jane McKenzii;, Alta Mae King, Martha Kiefer.

BASKETBUL With many girls from all the classes turning out for practice, three preliminary games started the season off to a flying beginning. In the suc- ceeding round robin tournament, a three-way tie between the Juniors, Sophomores, and Seniors was pre- cipitated. The Sophomores came through in the final game to win the championship. This was the only intramural sport in which the Juniors failed to take all honors. Sixty-one BinCLE CLUB The Bicycle Club, one of the school ' s most active groups, pedals vigorously around the country under the supervision of Miss Kelley.

Among its many new awards, perhaps the most sought for is the Class Winning Plaque. This is a perpetual trophy which, starting this year, will be presented annually to the team that has proved itself to be outstanding in a majority of the many different sports offered. Th is year the Junior girls, who have swept the field in all but one sport, have shown themselves by superior and undeniable skill to be the first upon whom this honor will be bestowed. Their class name will be carved on the plaque and will head a continually growing list made up of dif- ferent girls and different classes in the years to come. Sixty-three it p to- jjcdlxuuL DIVISION FOUR I it E This year ' s sixty-five Seniors have greatly enhanced and intensified all student activities from scholarship to citi- zenship. Their leadership has been exceptional and at graduation they will take with them the most glittering array of athletes this school has seen for some time. Their activities, however, are not confined to leadership, scholar- ship, and athletics, for they were also stellar in the fields of public € IT If 11 1 I) V speaking, art, and music. 3 U ill ill il II 1 The Juniors also distinguished Ari rTIIII IJIlin themselves in the fields of scholar- Uf lllli lliilR ship and athletics. It was through their participation in these activities that the foundation was laid for next year when they will take over the major student body affairs. Their most important activity of the year was the planning and sponsoring of the Junior-Senior dinner-dance at the Hotel del Coronado which fittingly closed the school ' s activities of the year. In the lower brackets we find the Sophomores and Freshmen. Their leadership, their scholarship, and their participation in all phases of school activities is a splendid harbinger of what may be expected of their future per- formances. Despite the graduation of the Seniors there is ample evidence that the activities of Coronado hHigh School will be carried on in a most effective manner by the lower classmen, who have had the benefit of guidance and moti- vation by the Seniors of nineteen forty. Sixty-seven nun OFFICERS Bob Baird, President Bob McCrary, Secretary-Treasurer Thomas M. Rice, Vice President Marjorie Woods, Valedictorian A feeling of unity and a co-operative spirit have marked the class of ' 40 throughout its four years of high school. Under the capable leadership of Bob Baird, the Seniors have memories of a successful year v ith v hich to associate their last days In these halls. The personal achievements of outstanding students and the accom- plishments of the class as a whole have given future Coronado Seniors a higher mark at which to aim. It is with a mingled feeling of pride and regret that we watch this year ' s graduates leave the portals of Coronado High School. Sixty-eight I ri s e n 1 It ' M 1.

Their leaders have been efficient, and Mr. Callister, the faculty adviser, has offered enthusiastic aid. The officers were Fritz Sandermann, president; Johnny Mathew- son, vice-president; and Betty Burrow, secretary-treasurer. These students ful- filled their offices well and are deserving of any honor paid them. Left to right: Fritz Sandermann. John Mathew- son. Betty Buffow, Mr. Callister (adviser). SOPHOMORE OFFICERS With the feared first year of high school behind them, the Sophomo. ' es have already begun to prove themselves valuable students and citizens of Coro- nado High School. Many of the athletes have proved themselves worthy. Presi- dent Bill Hakes and vice-president, Martha Kiefer, have been efficient leaders, with the valuable aid of Mr. Burge, faculty adviser. Left to fight: Bill Hakes. Duke Poshepny, Martha Kicfer, Mr. Burge (adviser). FRESHMAN OFFICERS The freshman class, whether it be in high school or college, finds itself in a precarious position and needs able, fearless officers to guide them through the year. Certainly there could have been none more efficient than Jack Carrothers, president; Henry Chisholm, vice-president; and Miss Kelley to ad- v se them. They have been a quiet, obedient, and pleasant edition to C.H.S. Left to right: Willord Matott, Miss Kelley (ad- viser), Jack Carrothers. Henry Chisholm.

To satisfy the school, the faculty, and the students is our constant aim. We are proud to have served the following schools throughout the years.

With the addition of our beautiful new Library, up-to-date Physical Education Building and Mod- ern Laboratories, the subject matter of this book takes on an added interest. May we be proud in the good fortune of at- tending a school where all these facilities are available. In the years to come, as we turn these pages, filled with pictures of our dear friends of high school days and of scenes which furnish back- ground for many happy times, may each one find inspiration to prove worthy of it all by becom- ing better men and women and more loyal American Citizens. Your Superintendent has the conviction that this Annual will become more and more precious as the years pass by. Each time that it Is taken from the shelf, its yellowing leaves will speak eloquently of a precious youth that has flown. We believe that members of the classes, whom the seniors are leaving, will exert every effort to carry on the same high standards, the same tradi- tions which have made Coronado High famous. May all good things be yours is the wish of your friend. J. Leslie Cutler Supt. of Schools. WAiJki
