Big news, too! We had our big front-page news stories in 1953. Late summer quakes shook the daylights out of us and our buildings. They led to the razing of our old administration building, construc- tion of ten temporary classrooms, post- ponement of the opening of school. Honors and awards came thick and fast. Keeping the record unblemished, the 1952 DEL-ANO won top,honors once more in national competition. The LIVE WIRE nabbed another top Quill and Scroll award. The choir was hon- ored with an invitation to entertain convening Lions in San Francisco. A first place trophy came back with the snappy band from their trip to the All- Western B nd Revi Tiger hoopsters fought their way to a Valley play-off. All-Valley grid honor came to Tex Westbrook. Dash-flash King ran a 9.6 century and a 20.9 furlong early in the season. Long hours in the classrooms pro- vided news N and new horizons in learning. We had our big moment socially too N the Mardi Gras, Blue Violins at the football dance, Peter Pan at the hoop hop, proms, banquets parties, rallies, initiations. Feature stories? Are you kidding? Miss Danks came from England as a I exchange teacher, the Lost- seniors struggled stub- ' bornly for privileges, one plg FFA boys lost a pig in the middle of downtown Bakersfield, the frosh got dancing lessons. We'd like to tell you the whole story of 1953, so read on, friend.

When funds are available, pos sibly in 1954, an administration-classroon building will be constructed on the site of Oli Main. Plans call for a twin to the Librar Building. To provide classrooms to replace those los with Old Main, ten temporary classroom built ings were constructed during the school yea: The new buildings are located north of th tennis courts. Next year they will serve as center for freshman classes. Delano I-Iigh's new buildings showed n damage following the summer quakes. The ol administration building, constructed in 191 and the gym, completed in 1929, were the oni buildings damaged seriously. ln addition to housing the auditorium cafeteria and vocal vidtd temporary quarters in the foyer for two classes.

In the new bus maintenance building, me- chanics keep in good working order Delano High's fleet of 13 large buses and 20 miscella- neous vehicles. It also provides a paved and fenced area for bus parking. Built of brick and corrugated aluminum, the new building was constructed by john S. Macomber on a bid of 399500.

Mr. Della Rales Book D dicalior 20 Art Teachers Exchange Positions In England- Miss Claire Hoster, in taking over Miss Dank's position at Shoeburyness, has taught art to students ranging in age from ll to l6. Although she has been in England for an unusually severe winter, Miss Hoster discounts that by the opportu- nity of being there for the Coronation ceremonies in June. Since Wfestcliff is only a short dis- tance from Loudon, she has enjoyed spending many hours in that great city. She has also been able to visit the Scandinavian c o u n t t i e s, Scotland, France, Germany, Switzerland, and Italy. Delano High will be glad to wel- come back the much-traveled Miss Hoster next year. In America- Miss Alison Danks joined the staff at Delano for the 1952-53 school year as an exchange teacher from Shoebury- ness school, County Borough of South- end-on-Sea, Essex, England. Taking over the classes of Miss Claire Hoster, Miss Danks has taught arts and crafts. She has spoken to count- less groups giving her impressions of life in the United States and compari- sons of the schools. Students and teachers at Delano High have enjoyed her friendliness, her adaptability, and her eagerness to try anything American at least once. Eng- land could not have selected a better ambassador of good will. Cheerio, Miss Danks. Superintendent H. R. Olson, completing his twenty-first year at Delano, spent a lot of time this year with blueprints. Adminisfralol Administrative problems? Mr. H. R. Olson Delano High superintendent, and the Delano Higl Board of Trustees faced their share and even more this year. Following the late summer quakes anc the report of engineers that Old Main was unsafe the board voted August 27 to raze the old building The next problem was office and classtoon space. Following their policy of pay-as-you-go con struction, the board authorized construction o temporary buildings to be used until funds fo permanent building became available in 1954. A record enrollment, which hit a peak of mori than 1,200 students, made classroom space a rea and immediate problem. October 14 the administration called a specia election to increase the tax rate from 351.30 pe 35100 to 591.60 for a period of five years. The meas ure passed with a margin of only 70 votes.

The gym was bulging. Girls in PE were introduced to the game of hockey this year. A new unit of recreational games including croquet, tether ball, shuffleboard, and badminton was added to the course. In addition to folk dancing, some modern dancing was taught by Miss jenkins to senior girls. Featured in boys, PE this year was a complete intramural program of football, basketball, track, and softball. Continuation School was conducted once more this year in Saturday morning classes. Instruction in the three R's was the basis of the classes. Students between the ages of 16 and 18 unable to attend regular classes were thus given a chance to continue their education. Registration in evening classes in the adult edu- cation program ranged from 600 to 460. Mr. Dan Della was director of evening school. The classes which maintained the highest enrollments through- out the year were folk dancing, Americanization, Htst aid, rug making, Mothersingers, mixed chorus, and wood shop.

The Tigers fin- ished league play with four wins and one loss. The season record was seven victories and two defeats. With the grid season starting before school opened, the speedy but light Tigermen edged Corcoran 12-6 and then powered their way to an easy 37-0 victory over Visalia in practice games. In a nip-and-tuck trial tilt the Wasco Tigers took advantage of a Delano fumble in the fourth quarter to squeeze past Delano 27-20 before 4,000 fans. Opening league play, the Tigers staved off a fourth quarter rally by East Bakersfield to edge the Blades 14-13. Bluhm had a big evening, scoring once and adding two precious points with his educated toe. A power failure at the local stadium delayed the game 35 minutes, but it did not dim the ardor of a capacity crowd. After rolling over Taft 21-7, the Tigers took care of Arvin 45-8. Against the Bears Taylor scored three times, I.. G. Smith twice, Barkus and Kusch once each.
