Today each of us must accept responsibility in the upbuilding of our nation. To that end, the chief concern of the adult world must be its youth, the inspiration of our present and the hope of our future. So to you, the Student Body of East Bakersfield High School, the 1942 Sierran is dedicated. May you always live up to the high ideals of your country, your community, and your school, by finding here and there an opportunity for the betterment of mankind.

Harvey, president of the board. Other members of the boar'd include Dr. Thomas L. Nelson, Kern county union high school district superintendent, Harold E. Woodworth, clerkg Duncan M. Osborne, Ches- ter W. ONiell and Harry D. West. This boar'd, which meets the second and fourth Monday evening in the office of Dr. Nelson, is elected by local citizens, and trans- acts all business of the Kern county high school district at regular meetings. The primary function of the board is to determine the general policies for, and exer- cise the general supervision of the school district The detfrrls and rdmrnrstr rtron ue c 11 ried out by the district superintendent, and holds him responsible for efficient rdministr 1 tion of the entire system.

Working in the business office we have Miss May Schmidt, the principal's secretary, and Miss llessie Shimono, who is Miss Schmidt's assistant. This is . the fourth year Miss Schmidt has been here and the KENNETH W. RICH, wncimllh first for Miss Shimono. Miss Shimono is a graduate of our own class of ill , and was eligible for the office position through her scholastic achievements. In the attendance office we have two very efficient members. Miss Evelyn Ferguson and Miss Jeanne Filkel. It is their job to keep track of all absences. This is the fourth year at EBHS for Miss Ferguson, who came to us from KCHS after working in the Study Hall over there. Miss Filkel has been with us for three years and came to us after attending KCIIS and the Bakersfield Junior College. Among the many duties performed by Miss Ferguson is the responsibility of seeing that all grades are recorded on the permanent records. She also takes care of scholastic ratings for athletic records, checks Senior giaduation requirements and makes up the honor roll every month. g 6 we Repair the f ant Xa js- 4.'f.',, Most students fail to realize the amount of I energy consumed by our custodians in the process of keeping our campus clean and beautiful. Each day after the last bell, and the last resounding footsteps of the students are heard in our halls, the custodian staff must clean the buildings thor- oughly for another busy day. This is an arduous task that confronts them continually and they perform it very well. This efficient staff of nine is ably headed by MISS JUANWA A' BOOTH' School Num Charles I. Drennan and includes Lloyd C. Vath, in charge of maintenance, Alfred A. Hopkins, Mrs. Nora Johnson, Francis C. Holson, Harley J. Fessier and Ray A. Stanton. Dean L. Gay su- pervises the gardening, and Damon A. Baker guards the EBHS grounds at night. Because of the national emergency, the EBHS Nurse's Office takes on an added hum of activity and importance this year. Miss Booth, our school nurse, stated that the now vi- tally imp-ortant course in Red Cross Nursing has enrolled many students and adults alike. This course adheres mostly to home nursing, and is given according to the National Red Cross standards. The course will be an invaluable aid during this emergency, and will help the country more by instilling in the students the knowledge of First Aid. SECOND RUVV Llnyrl C. Vuth.

' e ll ge 3 .Q- J sl E O D we Supervise affctiuitiea If a student makes the laws, he understands them better. That is only one good reason why C 3 the Board of Commissioners holds the controlling powers they do. A government by the people is one of the aims of our nation, and so it is in democratic schools. Representatives of the students reflect student opinions and values in every Way. In all student activities, the power delegated by the students comes through the faculty and prin- cipal. And because of a far-seeing faculty and principal, we are able to advance as our school grows. All student body activities are controlled and operated bi' the Board of Commissioners, whether HERBERT BAYLEHS Si'l'l M 'My P t' lim it's money to be appropriated, or permission for dances, and assemblies to be granted. The elected student body officers: President, Herb Bayless: vice-president, Glen Deuel, and secretary, Shirley Kincaid, the class presidents: Boyd Dye, Velma Jean Martin, Don Coleman, Vernon Equhartg two appointees, the chief justice. Frank Stanton, and business manager, Bert Fullerg the Sierran and Kemal editors, Beverly McGregor and Geneva Graves, and four club representatives from the Service Club, Russell liniffeng Debate So- ciety, Lionel Ramosg Boys Letterman Society, Bruce Stotts, and Girls Athletic Associa- tion, Marie Vinson, Comprise the Board members. One of the duties of the Board was to check and approve the constitution of every school club. This action gave the Board an idea of the purposes behind each club. and made thegn more able to grant the requests made by approved clubs. These responsibilities have done much to develop the power of future civic leadership. BO.-XRD OF COMMISSIONERS: Standing Ke ziii eth W, Rich. Principal: Mrs. Mae Foster.

Though lacking in quantity, they made up for it in quality, and have done a great deal to help the high seniors in all of their actilvities. Miss Julia Stankey and Mr. Irving E. Lane, the senior class advisors, have had a rather difficult job to perform in advising these students in their active senior year, and they have done their job commendably well. This was no easy task, as the seniors have the most active schedules. LOW SENIORS: Third Row Larry Sughrue, Willard Williamson, Henry Soloman. Bob Patterson, Willis Swartz, Jack Tongate.

N oung alprif H The second annual Senior play this year was received with as much enthusiasm as was last year's success. Young April, a comedy in three acts by Aurania Rouverol an d William Spence Rouverol, moved with a quick tempo and was packed with laughs from sta1't to finish. In the play love flies in and out of the McIntyre patio with the greatest of ease, to create laughter when stirred well with the adult spoon of interference and help. The plot of the play revolved around the love affairs of Terry McIntyre, the daughter of the family, and George McIntyre, the son. Terry, played by Virginia Proctor, found that she had much to learn about life, and found the learning difficult. George, palyed by Sid Ricards, was the college boy who was more of an idealist than many boys of his age, found it difficult to accept reality, especially when it came to his girl friend, Diane Gil- more, played by Beverly McGregor. However, everything ended happily because the pro- fessor, Claude Kennedy, and his wife, Roberta Hale, stepped in and took a hand. Others in the cast included: Ruth West as Mrs. Miller, Jimmy Graham as Stewart Miller, Clarence Miller as Brian Stanley, Bill Brown as Bert Parsonsg Marilyn Sutherland as Vivian, Elinor Pyles as Jane, and Carlyn Hoff as Elsie. h W t Jimmy Graham and Virginia Proctor Claude Kennedy, s and Roberta Hale UNIORS: Third Row Kenneth Arthur. ,alph Baugh.

Not only leading in sports, but also in school spirit, they are sure to be fellow-lead- ers in future years to come. President Velma Jean Martin, an active member of many groups, such as the CSF, led the class to gain the title they have. She was assisted by Otto Hensley, vice-president, Virginia Knight, secretary-treasur- er, and Lawrence Matheron, publicity manager. The class this year was under the supervision of Miss Ruth Boyens and Dan J. Reed. Activities through the year were sales, dances and the annual junior-senior prom in May. Choosing class rings this year as their emblems, the majority ofthe juniors adopted this as their most outstanding event. V? i N- C we alre lv. JUNIORS: Fourth Row Doug DeVVitt.

Be they big or small, short or tall, they are still Freshmen, and they make the most of it in spite of all the ribbing and such. This describes the new group of children that entered into the halls of EBHS in the fall and the early spring, when the mid-termers arrived. These Freshmen can be found in all school activities and prove to be worthy of their support in leading their classes. The first year students chose as their president Vernon Erquhart. who gave his support to the Board of Commissioners as well as leading his fellow classmen. Shirley Ann Curran, vice-president, also did her Work well and proved very promising in other activities. Secreta1'y-t1'easurer Joyce Lehman kept her notes to a T and upheld the class in many ways.

Tener, advisors of the class, they upheld their name and were as active in the school as the rest of the classes. Probably the main activity of the club was the Freshman dance, which was staged on Deceniber 6. All Freshmen took part in this affair and the outcome was that it was one of the largest attended dances of the year. Another activity was the carnival which was held in the school gymnasium during the latter part of FBlJl'l.l2l1'y. Approximately half of the students who entered EBHS as freshmen, graduated from Washington Junior high school in the fall and early Spring' of 1942. Others came from Eznei-son Junior high school and from distant cities and states throughout the country. 'Rl'ISHMEN: Fourth Row- Edwin Knapp. erry Highiill, Walter Johnson, John Kim: Iob Johnson.

In a world of chaos and international strife a knowledge of the various languages is very important, but a knowledge of our own English language is vitally essential. Our language is one of the most difficult to master, and the expert staff of English teachers here at EBHS attempt to instruct us in the various phases of our language. Our English department was competently composed of twelve teachers capably led by the department chairman, Phil H. Martin, assisted by Donald H. Burum who handled all school publicity and instruction of our journalism class. Mrs. Jane Claytor, a newcomer here, did exceptionally well with her classes in English and dramatics activities. Miss Frances Embrey capably set our school up several notches with her ace debators, and did well with her English and public speaking classes. Miss Esther Hyde, Miss Annabella Jossman and Roderick M. Jameson all did commendably with their many English groups. John R. King helped his students advance in their quest for knowledge. He also advised the Sierran staff and taught several English classes. M i s s Kathleen Klotz devoted her time to Commercial English. Miss Lorna Mullen handled many Latin, English and remedial reading classes, and Miss Mary Owens was kept busy with English classes. Miss Julia Stankey taught English and Spanish. . . . .. . . . ,-. ..,W.. .-..,-.w. .-...,.w..,.v..T. ,.,.... . . 5 English Teachers -- Mis .

The Kernal staff was kept very busy this year generating enough power to record the doings of a progressive school such as East Bakersfield. Under the able eladership of Don- ald H. Burum the Kernal's style was streamlined and the result was a modern news-journal. During the fall semester Margaret Scoop Carlton showed her executive ability and knowledge of the runnings of a newspaper while serving as editor. Her successor, Geneva Graves, kept up the tradition. This year the Journalism class was formed into a club for the first time. Its main activity was the staging of a Kernal dance in the Fall. A Miss Print , Josie Brand, was chosen from the class to reign over the dance as queen. ., . .......,. . . X 1 y Carmen Anderson and Ralph Q ag, fi- . Bauizh. j-335: R k Harry Jones.

One debate that concerned all of East Hi was a debate before the student body on the question, Resolved: that the EBHS stud ent body adopt the new constitution put be- fore them. Those participating in this debate were: Shirley Kincaid and Herbert Bayless on the affirmative, with Frank Stanton and Lionel Ramos on the negative. ln an invitational tournament at Ripon, Shirley Kincaid and Frank Stanton took first place in the upper division, while Barbara Huckaby and Evelyn LeClaire took second place in the lover division. Barbara and Evelyn also defeated the KCHS Freshmen and Sophomore debators in the Sierra League tournament. DEBATE CLUB: Third Row' Miss Frances Emhrey, advisor: Frank Stanton.

To instruct the apprentice in tak- ing over the live wires and high power lines of future America, and also to teach American youth what goes on behind the electric switch, are the tasks dutifully performed by EBHS social science teachers. They have the supreme pleasure of teaching students every detail concerning the founding of our country besides very useful in- formation about European and Asiatic countries. Fourth year history is called senior problems, a study of psy- chology and economics. An additional course in the social science department, open to freshmen with above average intelligence, is history IBX and IAX. It is a study centered around the school and com- munity. Students have been given tests from the weekly magazine, Time, with the idea of tying history with cur- rent events or history in the making. Mrs. Genevieve Magruder is chair- man of the social science department. Her colleagues are: Grant W. Jensen, Victor C. Manley, John R. King, Miss Phyllis Culbert, Orville M. Armstrong and John J.

Action in a Latin class Learning another lan- uage is a very important aid in developing an appreciation for another people, whose way of thingink becomes more understand- able when a person knows the language of the country. Spanish is particularly important now be- cause our government is continually working for a more friendly basis with the Latin American countries. Latin is helpful because it is the base for the romantic tongues as well as the source of scientific and legal terms of universal im- portance. The knowledge of German is increasingly important as our country lacks interpreters of this language. The understanding of French introduces one to much that is fine in science, art and literature.

The general purpose of the club is to in- terest students in language work and to ac- quaint them with foreign peoples, count1'ies and their customs. A typical program on an activity which are arranged and presented by the students in the club, consists of musical numbers, recitations in a foreign language, reports on cultural subjects pertaining to a foreign country. The most outstanding event is the Pan- American program which is presented once a year to celebrate Pan-American day.

These teachers have been very patient and painstaking in their efforts and their work has brought 1'esults. The students in Miss Dicken's class of office practice received invaluable practical ex- perience this year, that will benefit them greatly in the business world. They were also of great help in aiding the administration bydoing extra work for teachers. , New equipment included two calculating machines, a duplicating machine and a mimeo- grap to give the office practice class plenty of work. Each year the Commercial department spon- sors a typing contest during the Public School week at which prizes are given. The Sierran went to press before the results were announced, but outstanding contenders were Norine Fidler and Willamae Rodgers, who were the winners of the previous year. Doing their bit for defense, they sold the vital- ly important Defense Stamps to the students. This work was handled during second period classes by students who voluntered their services.

The group is unusual in the fact that only two seniors are enrolled. Edwin Shantz, bass viol, and Florencio Valenzu- ela, first violin. The large majority of the group are freshmen and sophomores, a fact which promises well for future seasons of the orchestra. There are some fine musicians developing among these lower classmen. The first public appearance of the group was in connection with the school play, No- vember 28. It also contributed to the music of the Christmas pageant. Since the first of the year the orchestra has performed for the Women's Club and for an evening of Scotch music presented by the St. Andrews Society in the school auditorium. Future plans include participation in the Ballad for Americans , and a special evening of instru- mental music to be presented for the parents and friends of the orchestra members. There are twenty-five students enrolled in advanced orchestra, but for special oc- casions the group is augmented by about ten additional musicians brought in from the intermediate orchestra or from the number of able school instrumentalists who are not enrolled in the class itself.

This also pertains to the students of EBIIS. Under the capable direction of Phil H. Martin, we have a well organized group of mu- sicians to represent East Hi. This group of young musicians consisting of the string quartet, the woodwind en- semble, trumpet trio and the horn quartet. The string quartet consists of Betty Salmon and Florencio Valenzuela on the violins: Robert Brame, viola, and Virginia Henry, 'cello. This group of musicians played for the faculty teas, at art and music clubs and at the Presbyterian church. Ably assisting Mr. Martin in various work was Norine Fidler, playing the piano. The woodwind ensemble consists of James Libby on the fiuteg Tom llershey, Lowell Fairley and Bill Cherones, playing the clarinets, and James Parker, the bassoon. Duane Cline, Raymond Rodgers and Bob White played the trumpets for the brass en- semble, while Dick Giraud accompanied him on the trombone.

Activity in an art class. In 1942 the two EBHS art teachers, Miss Lois Smith and Miss Lucille Garvin, con- centrated their effort on expanding into new fields. Silk screening and air-brushing, both very valuable to the commercial artist, were offered for the first time. These courses were taught by both Miss Smith and Miss Garvin. Two other new courses were Household Arts and Sciences, in which students build homes on budget plans and study the problems encountered in the home. The second one, a class in leather, dealt with all the processes and making of leather objects for practical use. Both of these courses were taught by Miss Garvin. A course in weaving was also taught by Miss Garvin as well as a class which made post- ers to advertise school events. 1 Doug DeWitt, Junior art student, entered the American Magazine art contest and won third prize with his picture of Kern County's industries.

The Future Farmers are a nation-wide organization for boys with rural interests. They also have for their use the Kern County high school farm which is owned by the school and operated by the boys in agriculture classes. The farm is used to raise the feed for the stock that inhabit it, and to raise stock for the members of the classes in cases where the members live in places that do not permit the raising of livestock.

The three girls attended all home and out of town games, both in football and basketball. The girls made and designed their own outiits of blue with EBHS written in red across the shoulder. They carried out the school colors by carrying two huge red pom-poms. For the first time this year the majorettes formed a club of their own and were in no way connected with the band. The president was Peggy Forgues, with Mildred Smith act- ing as secretary. Lloyd C. Vath acted as supervisor and taught the girls how to twirl. The main activity of the year was the staging of an all-girl show in connection with the Scarlet and Blue Revue given by the Lettermen's club. The show included the girls in the orchestra, the Girls Glee club and the majorettes. The majorettes who marched with the band were chosen from the club by John J. Overholtzer and Mr. Vath.

Rowland McClean, John Burubeltz and Ray Permenter were the three returning regulars, but Mell Hall and Leroy Seeger had been capable reserves in years before, and formed the Blades' first line battery, with Seeger pitching and Hall receiving. In addition to the battery, the Blade lineup included: John Burubeltz at third base, Jack Ross at shortstop, Don Senior in left field, Rowland McClean in center field, and Ray Permenter in right field. Fred Smith held down the first base assignment, often sharing it with Barney Prowell. Buster Wiggins and Dick Shepherd divided time on second base. Eugene Blair, curve ball specialist, was the Blades' second pitcher, while Harvey Means, Wilbur Sites, Dean Nichols and Jimmy Smith were other capable Blade reserves. As the Sierran went to press, the Blades had played six games, winning two, losing three and tying one. Two of the Blades' losses, however, were to the Bakersfield Junior College team. The Blades won two out of three games with the KCHS Drillers. Highlight of the season from the standpoint of unique ocurrances was the 18-inning tie with Taft. The junior varsity team won most of its games. It shows promise of being a fine devel- oplng ground for future Blades. if -5 U xx 1. 3? A TRACK: Third Row'-Coach Don E.

Boys tennis, just coming into its own as an important sport at EBHS, received a severe setback when transportation difficulties caused the cancellation of all matches. Only one outside match was played. In that, the boys and girsl tennis teams combined forces to de- feat Taft in the first meeting of the schools. For the second consecutive year, Don Engel was the top ranking player on the squad. Just below were two other returning lettermen, Bill Noris and Riley Hamm. Bernard Thompson was the fourth ranking player on the squad, just ahead of Earl Raney. Joe Lee Lewis and Bill Paris, two promising freshmen, paired to form a fine young doubles team. Johnny Hayworth, Cliff Whelden, William Pon, Charles Minter, Marvin Garlinger, Bob Gregorson and Don Siddall were all in their first year of tennis. Under the direction of Miss Phyllis Culbert, the girls tennis team continued to sponsor many tournaments, and at one time in the spring held a dance. For the first time in the history of the team the girls played another school team when they engaged in a match with Taft. Pat Corwin was the ranking netter of the team, although Alice Porter was a serious threat. Marilyn Rakow and Betty Menderhausen comprised the top doubles team.

Only one 41 open class winner was able to defend his title successfully, although three fighters attempted to repeat. Willis Prowell retained h i s light-heavyweight honors by decisioning Clarence Clerico, 41 titleholder, in the 169-pound bracket. Leon Watson, defending heavyweight champion, was knocked from his perch by Lau- rence Clerico. It was a second round knockout. Only novice winner of the previous year to advance to a title in the open division was Harry Jones, who left a trail of knockouts in his march to the 149-pound class peak. .Bones downed his final round opponent, Eanbert Smalley, in the second round of their out.

Due to a lack of transportation, which has cut down a great deal of the athletic events, the EBHS golf team was disbanded during the spring semester. Before this calamity oc- cu1'red the group had begun to grow from a s.nall stream to a powerful river with Duane Cline as captain of the team. They had only a few practice games on the Kern county park links. Growing so fast they made sparks Hy, the East high rifle club had 26 members at the end of this school year. The club had two matches, one with the KCHS Cadet corps, in which the EB shooters were defeated, and another with East high faculty members in which the younger set won by a narrow margin. The boys constructed their own range in the basement, while the Sports Hi Y has been very instrumental toward the enlarging of the club, donating one of the two rifles owned by the club. With Irving E. Lane and James W.

For the first time a real threat in valley competition, East high's swim squad wrote a brilliant chapter in EB swimming annals. Nearly doubling their nearest competitor's score, the class B natators captured the county B class trophy last year, but were nosed out in the valley meet by KCHS by just one valuable point. Swimming at East high, a rapidly developing sport, has produced several prominent aquatic aces---Frank Stanton, valley record holder in the class B 100 free style and captain of the EB swim team, and Pete Fagan, season's undefeated valley back-stroke champion. i Returning veterans were Bob Patterson, school record l holder in the 50 free-style, Bob Laughner and Jim Higley in the sprints, and Herb Bayless, holder of the interclass breast stroke record. Ray Lob1'e, distance swimmer, strengthened the team by his work in the 440 free-style, and Dick Higley contributed his talents in the breast stroke. Other veterans were Dick Lemucchi, Walt Marshall, Jim Pugh, Harold McCartney and Howard Jaynes. As the swim team has been crippled by the tire shortage, only interclass swim meets have been definitely scheduled for this season. Dethroning the class of '42, the juniors handed the senior class their first defeat in three years in the annual interclass swimming meet this year. Scoring 76 points, as compared to the seniors' 68: 49 for the sophomores, and 37 for the yearlings, the juniors scored an un- expected victory. Showing great promise this season in class A are Bob Gill, Dean Edmondson, John Cramer, Clarence Hare, Elwood Huskey, Delmer Hylton and Lowell Wing.

The girl's gym classes followed an interesting course of sports t his year under the leadership of Miss Rena Clark, Miss Phyllis Culbert and Mrs. Dorothea Bell. The gym teachers had student leaders to help them. The leaders took roll and refereed at games during the gym periods. Twice a week the gym classes met for dancing. During the fall semester they specialized in social dancing, while in the spring they worked on modern dancing which they did in the fiftieth anniversary pageant. The first sport of the year was vol- leyball. A round robin tournament was held and was won by the freshmen. Softball, one of the most popular sports, was the last one in the spring and resulted in many broken fingers and bats. leyb ll h mal goo The g'irl's swiming class, under the direction of Miss Rena Clark, proved that girls a1'e no sissies by braving the cold water at Jefferson all year 'round. There were 35 girls in the class and individual instruction in diving and different strokes was given. An inter-class tournament was also held. The speedball championship, t h e second sport of the year, was another favorite in spite of broken shins , and was won by the seniors. This year the girls had to learn a new set of rules for speedball. Archery was taken up as an after school activity under the leadership of Mrs. Dorothea Bell.

A dance was given for Thanksgiving and was called the Turkey Trot. Chances were sold on a turkey with the drawing taking place at the dance. The GAA also obtained an exclusive permit for four months to hold candy sales at the noon dances. The association continued on its way this year, building power in health, minds and bodies, under the excellent leadership of Miss Rena Clark and their president, Marie Vinson. The season started out with volleyball, followed by soc- cer. basketball and baseball. After school there was bad- minton. tennis. archery and horseback riding.

They have made a large number of stretch- ers which will be used to carry wounded soldiers. The boys also designed and made such oddities as lapel pins and letter openers, which they sold to businessmen and East H i students. The number of volts , or members' have greatly increased since their organization three years ago. The Delta Hi Y started when the Hi Y sports club became too large to be an efficient organization. If one were to join the Delta Hi Y, he would have to be on the go. Jimmy Smith attended the Y congress in Yosemite, while Bob Wheeler took part in the leader's convention held in the Methodist church here at home. All of the club members have participated in the famous bean feeds we have heard so much about. Bi-monthly breakfasts were held at Pop Smith's Colonial Inn where Y coun- cil members had their meetings. The Delta Hi Y also had a basketball team that made a good showing for themselves in the season just passed. Verle A. Cowling was the backer for the group while Jimmy Smith wielded the gavel both semesters. During the first semester Lionel Ramos was vice-president and Richard Lewis, secretary. Officers for the second se- mester were Bob Wheeler, vice-president, and Lionel Ramos, secretary. Bob Abbott and Don Johnson were elected Y council representatives.

The California Scholastic federation,otherwise known as the CSF, consists of th ose students who do outstanding work in high school. Membership to this organization is gained by making three A's and one B as semester grades, usually in college prepara- tory courses. At the beginning of the year the EBHS chapter was granted a charter of its own, pre- viously we were part of the KCHS chapter, being the 336th high school in California to be granted membership in this state organization. This is indeed an honor in a school as young as East high. Early in the fall the group held its installation ceremony vv i t h members from t h e KCHS student body and faculty acting as installing officers.

President Rose Hashim, who succeeded Neil Mulcahy, fall president, has made a name for herself as a leader in any or- ganization. She is assisted by Pat Milloy, spring vice-presi- lent, who succeeded Eileen Mulcahy, fall vice-president. The club, a religious organization, is under the advisor- ship of Miss Adelina Ciabarri who, in January, succeeded Homer Gill, Jr. Miss Ciabarri has helped the club in many ways with new ideas. Mr. Gill, now doing U.S.O. work in Taft, can well be called the back bone or starter of the club. The Reverend Dennis O'Hara, chaplain of the group and and assistant pastor at St. Joseph's Catholic church, served as a good worker in leading the group in religious discussions. Though primarily a religious organization, the club also participated in many social af- fairs, including a family night during the months of September and October. In November they were entertained by the Bakersfield chapter Knight of Columbusg in De- cember a Christmas party was given. Each member was admitted by bringing a small gift which later was donated to the baskets for needy families. In January an ice skating party, in February a Valentine dance, in March they entertained their parentsg in April a picnic and in May the annual convention.

The club members, all upper-classmen, ushered at the student body play, the senior play and func- tions held in the East Hi auditorium. They sponsored a dance in the fall after the Blade-Driller basketball game. The Service club also sponsored courtesy week, a clean-up campaign and safety campaigns through- out the school year. As a highlight of the spring semester a party and a breakfast was given by the juniors for the grad- uating me1nbe1's of the club. An annual event which the club sponsors each year is Hello day, during which each student wears a tag with his name on it. A matinee dance always follows. Hello day is a great help to freshmen and new students in get- ting acquainted with other studentsg and it also helps the old students to renew old friendships.

At any game of any athletic season vou can hear enthusiastic EBHS students cheering on their teams. EBHS is well known for its school spirit, and for good reason. One of the most active groups behind this spirit is the newly organ- ized rally committee. Because of the activities of the rally com- mittee, our school teams have had the fullest possible measure of support.

Over two hundred students attended the Roosevelt high-EBHS game as a result of one of the first rallies of the football season. The energy generated at the first of the year was continued with increased output to the very end. No sport lost its support. Ushering at basketball games was a new innovation of the committee. It aided greatly in forming a compact cheering section. After a long search for good yell leaders, the committee has brought up the standard of school spirit to an all-time high. While a new club with a new idea, the committee has had the complete cooperation of the whole student body and faculty. By a student body vote they proclaimed Mary Aubm and Gino Banducci to be Betty and Bobby Blade, the typical East high girl and boy. At the beginning of the spring semester the committee moved its quarters from room 103 to its own ru1npus room below the stage. From its depths came the mak1n's of the rallies. This committee has established a precedent for all incoming classes to live up to in the way of organized enthusiasm.

'we Repreafent Zlze 'Women Including every girl in school, the EBHS Girls League offers the greatest opportunity for girls to participate in school activities. In charity and in service there is a place for all girls in Girls League work. A national organization, this group is Well known for its bene- factory work in aiding others and for providing interesting activities for many girls. One of the first of many activities of this year was a welcomi ng party for incoming freshmen. The league provided big sisters for all freshmen girls. Two freshmen parties were given, at the beginning of each semester, initiating new freshmen. Under the spon- sorship of the league, all girls were thoroughly initiated into high school life. Two fashion shows also marked their calendar. One was given in the fall, showing warm, winter clothes. The other, given in the spring, introduced new summer styles. Behind the annual fashion shows is the purpose of showing girls the proper school attire in an inex- pensive way. The shows were produced by volunteer models and workers from the student body. Climaxing a full semester of activities, the league sponsored the annual girls date formal on February 7. Wniter scenes were the decorations for the dance, and were done by Pat Rhodes, Girls League president, and Douglas DeWitt. Money for graduation expenses was fur- nished for the most needy senior girl at grad- uation time. This is just an example of the welfare work done by this organization. Hav- ing such a large membership enables them to aid many people in various ways. An all-girl picnic in the spring included every girl, and the league hick dance in March entertained many students. Regularly held meetings are in the interest of all members. Many girls benefitted much by active participation. Left to Right-Shirley Franklin, Pat Rhodes, Mary Bosley and Pat Hurley.

Q we Strive fo ffeade Acting right alongside the YWCA as junior linesmen from high school, the East high Girl Reserves have made it an objective of their 1941-42 campaign to help as much as they could toward national defense. They even contemplated giving blood to the blood bank in Bakersfield. One of the things the group did was to buy a defense bond out of per- sonal money and from their treasury. One big event that took place was the Girl Reserves' con- vention in Delano where 150 gi1'ls met. It marked the growth of the EBHS club because this is the first year they were abl to send four delegates. In previous years only one repre- secretary-treasurer, and Mar- sentative had been sent. The four representatives were 'Iam Smnh' Dresldem Margaret Smith, Esther Angeles, Helen Angle and Betty Phillips. Subjects at the meeting were: Minority Prob- lems and The Place of Young Girls in War. OFFICERS-Maryiune Eakin. Two formal initiations, a bowling party, a Chinese dinner, and a picnic with the boys' Hi Y, constituted a very full program that took place in the two preceding semesters for the growing club of Girl Reserves. A good-will act participated in by the organization was the Christmas drive for needy families in which they gave canned food, monev and other things necesary for a full basket for some needy family. As a means of raising funds to carry on a variety of activities the girls held two ginger- bread sales, open to the entire East high student body. Serving as the guiding light for the group was Mrs. Genevieve Magruder, with Mar- garet Smith holding high the position as president and vice-president, and Marijune Eakin as secretary-treasurer. 8 , Q, I. 2 . 1 at x.

I I C e flag welll Magee of :glut The ancient Chinese philosopher who remarked that one picture is worth a thousand words didn't come near es- timating the value that the pictures taken by the EBHS photography club have been to this Sierran. This active group has provided an accurate pictorial record of every student body activity during the school year. Taking pictures of events as they happen has been one of the major achievements of the club. Giving students interested in photography an opportuni- ty to take, develop and enlarge their own prints is the purpose of the club. While meetings were not held regular- ly during the year, all members had the privilege of using club and school equipment for developing their own prints during their spare time. Jack L. Rowe, advisor, and Betty Mae Gunning, secre- tary, took all club pictures for the Sierran. Officers were: President, Paul Graham, and Secretary- treasurer, Betty Mae Gunning. Photography students this year seemed to take an in- terest in learning how to shoot from different angles. They also read many photography books obtained by the li- brarian, greatly increased the general knowledge of the amateur photographers, as the advisor, Mr. Rowe, taught the students du1'ing his free time. Students taking part in the organization also did school work as well as their own work by developing pictures on their free time, either during their lunch periods or after school. Future photographers can well be found at East Bakers- field high school, as you can readily see by this year's Sierran. img F BOYS LEAGUE CABINET: Second Row-Howard Wilson, Doug DeWitt, Edwin Knapp. Eavy Pappas, Don Coleman.

Compared with the fact that it is such a young group, the club has made itself known as being a very powerful influence in student activities and government at East high. The league was really formed in an attempt to raise the standards of EB boys in particular, and the whole student body in general. Every boy that attends EBHS automat- ically becomes a members of the Boys League. The most important project accomplished by the league was a judicial system con- sisting of a judicial committee that has jointaction with the cabinet and executive depart- ment. This system was created to handle students with ill- conduct in assemblies and on the school grounds and any other school problems that should arise. A committee from the Girls League works with this group. Members of the boys' committee were: Joe Lopez, 1Bg Bud Long, 1Ag Ed- win Harris, 2Bg Don Rodewald, 2Ag Stillman Clayton, 3Bg Don Dye, 3Ag Harold McBride, 4B, and Claude Kennedy, 4A. One of the biggest social events of the year was a semi- formal dance given by the Boys League, while every male citizen at East high anticipated with real joy the huge end-of- the-year picnic held at Jefferson park. Charter president for the new group was Leon Watson, with Claude Kennedy as vice-president, and John Penning- ton serving in the position of secretary-treasurer.
