Barbara Graves,. Shirley Fox______ Mr. G. S. Walton ...Editor in Chief Business Manager -----------Advisor For twelve years, we have watched students come and go at G. J. H. S. from our vantage point at the main entrance. Won't you take one more tour through the school via the yearbook with us? We hope that this book will mean much to you in future life as a record of your high school days. £Lcr j TOUR THROUGH y GRAND JUNCTION S HIGH SCHOOL WITH JOANNA BE DEDICATION We, America’s youth, are engaged for our first time in a war. This war has made us thank God for our representative government, high ideals, liberty and education, which are our inherited rights as citizens of this country. It is to this country, the United States of America—one nation indivisable, with liberty and justice for all--that we dedicate this annual. MILESTONES « f- 1941 - 42 I SCHOOL Fluorescent lights, new bulletin boards and blackboards, and a counciling room for club meetings were some of the improvements made on the school building this year. A new period system was inaugurated. The classes convened at 8:35; home room period was arranged between the first and second hour, and a sixth period was added as a compulsory study hour. One of the year's outstanding events was the Hidden Talent program sponsored by the Publications department. The Tigers lost the chance to compete for the state football championship when they were defeated in the quarter-final game with the Salida Spartans, 18-0. The wrestling team led by Mr. Whatley copped the state championship by overpowering the strong East Denver team. Students proved that they were behind the defense program 100 per cent by holding patriotic assemblies, buying defense bonds and stamps, sponsoring a war-benefit carnival, and Red Cross dances. LOCAL Grand Junction residents participated actively in home nursing and first aid classes, defense committees and other war work. Plans were made for a canning factory to be erected in Palisade. Since Western Air Lines is establishing a base here, on the route from Las Vegas to Denver, a new airport was built. NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL United States had an apathetic attitude toward the war in Europe and Asia until December 7, 1941, when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and the Philippine Islands. General MacArthur, with inferior forces and equipment, is still holding the Philippines. The fall of Hong Kong and Singapore formed another step in the tragic battle. As a result of America's actual participation in the war, citizens were forced to make sacrifices. Draft laws were made more rigid, the sugar and rubber shortages became acute, taxes were increased, and prices boomed. On the European front the tides have reversed against Germany. The Russians have repulsed the Germans and are driving them off from Russian soil. Instead of Germany invading the British Isles, it now appears that Britain is planning an invasion of the continent. Here's hats off to Mr. J. Fred Essig, who has just completed his fifth year as superintendent of the Grand Junction schools. Hunting, fishing, and stamp collecting are the recreations Mr. Essig chooses for relaxation. He also finds time for Rotary Club, N. E. A., and C. E. A. He received his B. A. and M. A. degrees at Kansas State Teachers College and Iowa State University. Before Mr. Essig came here in 1937 he was principal, first in Florence, Kansas, and then in three Colorado towns: Olathe, Delta, and Longmont. A friendly personality and a quick sense of humor makes our superintendent a well-liked individual among the high school students. By living an active and useful life, Mr. Tope has become one of the best known men of the community. He now retains the position of Superintendent Emeritus of the Grand Junction School system and holds two degrees, B. A. and M. A. The newest Grand Junction public school, Tope Elementary, was named in honor of his work along the educational line. Mr. Tope's abilities have not been confined alone to education, as he has left his mark in the business world, too. He organized the Bank of Grand Junction and headed it until he retired. He also organized the Citizens’ Finance company and is now vice president of that organization. To the Seniors: You have reached another milestone in your career—completion of high school. You stand on the threshold of new experiences which will challenge your best in determining the course you will follow as an American citizen. America looks to you today, as in the future, to fill your place wisely in making this country a land of opportunity. The extent to which you take advantage of opportunities afforded you, and your willingness to pay the price necessary to attain those goals will make a definite contribution to your own advancement and that of your country. I feel confident that you will not fail in your part. Always willing to assist students with any problems is Gunnar Soelberg, our vice principal, and extra-curricular director. For relaxation he likes to travel, argue, fish and debate. Mr. Soelberg attended college at Spokane, and obtained his A. B. and M. A. degrees at Greeley. Ten years of experience in teaching has made him well qualified for his job. Mr. Soelberg became vice principal two years ago and had been teaching here for three years. He wishes that the students would take advantage of the many opportunities for guidance offered by the school.

STUDENT? COUNCIL S. B. A. Officers: Gus Choles, Myrlee Strein, Evelyn Peterson. Gus announcing at assembly. Grand Junction high school surely is democratic, isn't it? said Joan to Abe after they had attended a meeting of Student council. Making the school a democracy was one of the jobs tackled by the 1941-42 Student council which is composed of the presidents of school clubs and the Student Body officers. The group was led by Gus Cholas, president; Myrlee Strain, vice president; and Evelyn Peterson, secretary. Sponsoring the sale of defense stamps to members of the student body was another of the group's projects. Members were also 100% behind the school defense program which was started by the Student and Home Room councils. Plans were made for having a student handbook which would contain information about the school that would be useful to the students. Student council was also in charge of planning the pep assemblies and numerous other student activities. 1st row—Barbara Jane Reynolds, Shirley Fox, Beverly Knight, Shirley Holmes, Barbara Graves, Betty Bieser, Mary Gower, Phyllis Anderson. 2nd row—Evelyn Peterson, Virginia Paul, Sally Reeds, Eleanor Yonge, Mildred Blanke, Geraldine Weaver, Laura Jean Farmer, Nina Marie Barnes. 3rd row—Donald Strain, Gus Cholas, Paul Bonnell, Jim ternahan, Dan Porter, Vincent Nourse, Johnny Retaloza, Eddie Wolf, Shlu 7H.

Jim I wonder if the students realize how lucky they are to have a Home Room council which represents everyone in school? Abe remarked to Joan. At the beginning of the school year the members of the Home Room council, feeling that they could work more efficiently under their own officers rather than have the Student Body president preside over both councils, elected Don Strain president; Sene Nakano, vice president; and Helen Jane McCormick, secretary. During the second semester, they held several joint meetings with student council. Several assemblies that were held during the year for the student body were the result of much planning and work by members of the Home Room council. The group also co-operated fully with the defense program for the school. Members of this council, which is composed of the presidents of the home rooms, helped both councils by presenting ideas discussed at meetings to their home room classes. Horn.

Because Leona Summerville, the regular office secretary, has so much to do, several high school girls help in the office during each period of the day. They distribute notes, answer phone calls, check attendance, and act as general handy men in the office. The janitors, under the leadership of George Wallace, head custodian, keep the school clean k and in good condition and are always on hand to do the many odd jobs they are called upon to do by the teachers and students.

Mv v . l. W is for the victory the senior class of nineteen hundred and forty-two has achieved. When these students entered the halls of S. J. H. S. as freshmen in 1938, they proved their foresight by electing Bill Stine, president; Helen Rose, vice president; Donna Hanson, secretary; and Beverly Knight, treasurer. Their sophomore year, they decided to stag it with Gus Cholas, president; Tommie Litton, vice president; Don Strain, secretary, and David Brown, treasurer. They successfully sponsored dances for the freshmen. In 1940 they snapped into the swing of things in a big way, electing Bill Stine president of their class again. Violet Carson was elected vice president; Barbara Jane Reynolds, secretary; and Jackie White, treasurer. The school calendar for seniors was the theme for the theater party. They were the first class to hold their annual prom for the seniors in the Mesa College auditorium. As juniors they adopted the three-year plan for buying class rings at the Murcott Jewelry company. Being the first graduating class of the war was a large responsibility. Nevertheless the seniors were first to go all out for defense. Mr. Knight and Miss Wood, the advisors were always willing to assist the seniors in any way they could. Under the direction of Albert Weist and Helen Jane McCormick, the seniors gave the annual theater party and prom for the juniors. The juniors reciprocated in the spring. During the year, six National Assembly programs were held and the proceeds were used for the senior class picnic at the end of the year. Slouch Day was the day they had all looked forward to, and everyone enjoyed dressing up for this occasion. Another senior success was the senior class play, Ever Since Eve, directed by Miss Smith. The officers were: Paul Bonnell, president; Eunice Greenlee, vice president; Bob Yant, secre-tary; and Angela Simonetti, treasurer.

The juniors started their activities with a meeting to decide on the class ring. A three-year contract was adopted last year; consequently, the rings were ordered through Murcott's Jewelry company. Along came Christmas, and the seniors were hosts to the juniors at the theater party and prom. Toward the end of the school year the juniors were very busy making plans to entertain the seniors. Among the successful events that came from this planning were the theater party, prom, and decorations for commencements. The junior officers also ushered at baccalaureate and commencement. The annual picnic was held at Mount Garfield. Sponsors for this class were Miss Marasco and Mr. Pendergrast. 1st row—Carroll Gilbert, Jack Ford, Ronald Forsberg, Bob Hendrickson, Elden Hall, Kent Green, Howard Johnston, Craig Harris, Bud Flockhart, Bob Erickson, Bob Harns, John Da Pron, George Erven, Harley Hutton, Dickie George, Donald Doughty. 2nd row—Joyce Getty, Betty Ray Johnson, Pat Gawf, Mildred Gilmore, Eula Garret, Dorothy Doughty, Eileen Gardner, Mari-anna Edler, Volene Davis, Lila Devenney, Nadine Hall, Jacqueline Glasgow, Betty Johnson, Dorothy Dennis, Dora Hunnel, Elizabeth Fangman. 3rd row—Mary Esther Ellis, Jeanne Garber, Zelda Farmer, Marjorie Hinton, Lillian Horne, Arlene Hall, Mary Frances Hill, Dorothy Mae Farmer, Ann Enstrom, Katherine Hess, Lois Gilmer, Connie Galligan, Marjorie French, Marie Donna, Lorraine Farney. 4th row—Dorsey Harmon, Carl Hutton, Randall Hall, Marlin Glass, Jerry Dolan, Marvin Dickey, Dick Hutton, Don Griffin, Joe Kearl, Charles Edwards, Earl Kipp, Martin Hasenkrug. .................

Through Orange and Black editorials, a change was brought about in student government. A Hidden Talent program in February was sponsored by the O. and B. Staff members plan to make this an annual event. Another idea instigated by the staff was an assembly for girls in which the football team demonstrated the different plays, formations, and rules of football. The O. and B. was under the leadership of Sally Reeds, editor-in-chief; Helen Rose, associate editor; Evelyn Peterson, news editor; Shirley Myers, assistant editor; Mary Gower, copy editor; Dude Mclntire, sports editor; Shirley Holmes, feature editor; Betsy Biggs, business manager; and Mr. Walton, advisor.

To most of us, the Annual is just another suc-seccessful yearbook, but to the staff it has meant long working hours and sleepless nights. Yet, Barbara Graves, editor; and Shirley Fox, business manager, assisted by Ann Enstrom and Betty Brownson, and Mr. Walton, advisor, did survive this ordeal. With the aid of eight faculty members, the junior and senior home room presidents have chosen three senior boys and three senior girls to represent Grand Junction high school students. These students were used in the candid section of the Annual in typical high school scenes. The staff has been divided, as in previous years, into sections headed by sub-editors. They are: Helen Rose, organizations; Shirley Holmes, faculty and administration; Mary Gower, publications; Shirlee Howell, typing; Aileen Krebbs, music; Marilyn Soelberg, copy editor; Jim Treece and Don Strain, sports; Virginia Cheney, art; Ann Enstrom, layout.

PUBLICATIONS, BOARD Publications Board: First row—Skirlay Foi, Ann Enstrom, Myers; second row—Mary Gower, Sally Reeds, Helen Rose row—Evelyn Peterson, Betty Brownson, Barbara Graves, Betsy Mr Wa n. Choosing the officers for the Orange and Black and Annual is one of the main duties of the Publications board, which is composed of the editors and business managers and their assistants on the Annual and O. and B. Eleven of the Publications board members attended the High School Journalism conference in Boulder in November. This is the largest journalism group ever to have attended a conference. The Hidden Talent program sponsored by the Orange and Black in February and the Ball Masque in the spring, sponsored by Quill and Scroll, were the means by which the Publications board covered expenses for the Boulder trip._______ The board inaugurated a new plan for the Orange and Black business management. The business manager is in ofice during second semester of his junior year and the first semester of his senior year. Tiger Tales Editors: Skirley third liggt, True experiences, tongue twisters and unheard of poetic literature are found in the 1941-42 Tiger Tales. These various yarns have been submitted by the advanced composition classes under the guidance of Miss Groom. Every member, sometime during the year, writes an original composition that he feels should gain recognition; hence it is published in the Tiger Tales. Students with talents in the artistic field design the book. The class chose the symbolic colors of the day: red, white, and blue, for the cover and division pages. Tiger Tales has been published seven years and each year has proved itself a worthwhile project. It consists of about 100 pages and is mimeographed by the staff. This year it was published under the management of Bill Stine and Helen Rose, editors; Eleanor Yonge and Sam Ong, art editors; and Margaret Rose and Ethel Biggs, business managers.

The annual series of concerts was presented. The orchestra played the works of such well-known composers as Rossini, Elgar, Strauss, Mozart, and Hayden. MR.

Mr. Slocum Some outstanding performances, such as the Messiah participation and the spring music festival, have been turned in this year by the mixed chorus. Goodsell Slocum, with Marion Jacobs assisting him and with Joyce Gardner as pianist, has proved that the vocal organizations can be worth while all the school year instead of just at contest time. This 100-voice chorus' purpose is to instill into its members appreciation of the best choral liter- ature through actual participation, and to bring enjoyment and education to the public. It has done all types of music from modern swing to ancient Latin hymns. A novel idea of Mr. Slocum's was to have a set of formations. By calling for a different formation, he changed the number of voices on a part. The officers were: Ray Watkins, president; Myrlee Strain, vice president; Marilyn Soelberg, secretary; and Lois Angus, treasurer. 1st row—Bonnie Poarch, Lois Smith, Lila Jeanne Warner, Helen Sommers, Betty Jean Barker, Marion Quist, Dorothy Walker, Bob Nelson, Lawerence Sawyer, Gardner Clymer, Ray Watkins, Donald Quist, Donald Bush, Chris Juflas, Betsy Biggs, Lillian Horne, Le Ella Timmons, Marilyn Ball, Reva Bollmen, Betty Dunn, Bette McKeever, Joan Mclntire. 2nd row—Margarita Cardona, Dorothy Doughty, Eileen Gardner, Louise Burrows, Eunice Greenlee, Louis Lepinote, Andy Prinster Jim Rigg, Bob Reed, Ralph Henderson, Paul Bonnell, Jack Rigg, Don Griffin, Jim Ragan, Shirley Tomlinson, Lois Angus, Dorothy Neville, Ruth Farmer, Betty Jean Charlesworth, Marilyn Soelberg, Henrietta Fortune. 3rd row—Mr. Slocum, Joyce Gardner, Shirlee Howell, Marilea Craig, ranees Hill, Fred Peck, Jimmie Ellrick, Roy Combs, Lemar Dykstra, Duane McIntyre, Joe Pollard, Bob Ericbon, Morris Sprott, Beverly Munro, Betty Ray Green, Anita Collier, Margaret Tucker, Jean Stokes, Katherine Hawley, Betty Brady, Laura Jean Farmer. 4th row—Clifford Vance, Richard Knoche, Kay Copeland, Alcarita Miera, Kay Kay McGillis, Shirley Marriott, Gwen Smith, Aileen Krebbs, Jean Marie Jorgensen.

Directed by Mr. Jacobs, the high school band successfully completed the year 1941-42. During the year the band gave numerous public performances. As in former years, it played for the football and basketball games, giving exhibitions between halves of the game. Also, the band gave several concerts in collaboration with the orchestra. Several novelty numbers were presented: The Little Brown Jug Goes to Town, The Piccolo Gets Left, Boogie-Woogie Band, and Liberty Bell. The Banner Girls were chosen by popular election. They were Donna Hanson, Ethel Biggs, Myrlee Strain, Helen Louise Bush, Bonnie Poarch, Esther Towns, Violet Carson, Shirley Myers, Shirley Fox, and Dorothy Neville. Don Craig, drum major, was assisted by twirlers Miriam Adee, Lucille Underhill, and Vanetta Stanley.

Boys' league was guided this year by Dan Porter, president; Gene Nakano, vice president; Carl Cox, secretary; and Mr. Maag, advisor. The Boys' league council, which is composed of five representatives from each class, decided on programs and activities which would interest boys. The wrestling squad presented their annual exhibition. In the spring, another annual event was held—the senior boys and faculty members volleyball game. Representatives from the navy, army and Mesa college gave talks to the boys. Promoting a more democratic atmosphere by providing entertainment for all girls has been accomplished by the Girls league this year under the leadership of Virginia Paul, president; Richalyn Kilbourne, vice president; Helen Louise Bush, secretary; Phyllis Creel, treasurer; and Miss Hixson, advisor. The Big-Little Sister Party in the fall, when the senior and junior girls each take a new girl or freshman as a little sister, was an outstanding activity. Girls' league activities also included a dance in the fall, a party in January and a mothers' tea, besides the regular meetings every six weeks during the year.

The general theme for discussion was Reconstruction After the War. Activities for the club began with its annual Cie-fest. A dance was sponsored and a scrap-ook was made by the club. The seventh annual International Relations club conference was held in Grand Junction. Many schools over the Western Slope partici- pated. Anita Eisaguirre, who was elected Regional president last year, presided. The central figures on this year's program were Dr. Cherrington and Mr. Fuller from Denver. Peace and the New World Order was the subject of this conference. The acting officers this year were Jean Tomlinson, president; Louise Clarke, vice president; and Lucy Chiaro, secretary-treasurer.

The club presented one-act plays at every meeting. In the evenings the three groups combined. In November, the senior group presented four successful one-act plays entitled Sparks Devine, A Bargain's a Bargain, D-298 and Spreading the News. The sponsor of the Dramatic club's senior-junior group was Miss Smith. Miss Gladys Craw- ford was sophomore sponsor and Mr. Bergner was sponsor of the freshmen group. The senior-junior group officers were: Phyllis Anderson, president; George Osborn, vice president; Lucille Underhill, secretary; and Helen Sommers, treasurer. Those leading the sophomore group were: Betty Powell, president; Donna Barmore, vice president; Shirley Rankin, secretary; Marilyn Ferguson, treasurer.

It is composed of members who have done outstanding work on the Annual and O. and B. Mary Gower was elected president, but she resigned and Helen Rose succeeded her. Barbara Graves was vice president and Margaret Rose secretary-treasurer. The club has made several changes. Meetings were held in members' homes in order to create more interest, and the qualifications for membership were raised. Among their activities were the Cord and Gingham dance, an innovation—the Ball Masque, a dinner-dance for staff members, and a steak-fry in the spring. The Girls' Athletic association is organized to promote athletic interest, good health, and physical efficiency among girls. This year, for the first time, G. A. A. has sponsored the intramural tournaments in volleyball, basketball, and baseball through the home rooms. Each room, when entered, received 100 points, and the winning room received 300 additional points. An initiation was held in January for new members. G. A.

I'd be glad to is the motto of Tri-S, an honorary junior and senior girl's club, whose aim is to raise the standards of scholarship, social life, and service. The members are chosen by a point system. A certain number of points, based on activities, offices held, character and scholarship is required. Activities for the year included: a covered dish supper in January, a dance in March, a picnic with the Hi-Y club in May, and near the Tri-S Officers: Shirloy —=— |illm • end of the year, a mother's tea.

The Anthos club, organized two years ago, is for students interested in flowers and gardens, but special time is devoted to the study and collection of wild flowers and their location in this region. A herbarium of plants of Western Colorado has been started for the high school. Approximately 100 various kinds of flowers are included in the herbarium, which will prove beneficial to the school. In the spring and fall, many field trips to collect wild flowers were enjoyed. The first trip was in the Rimrock Drive region.

A different project every month was the schedule this year for the Girl Reserves, one of the largest organizations in school with a membership of 100. The members assisted during the band tournament and teachers convention and taught the freshmen school songs and yells. Early in the year, they enjoyed a joint banquet with the Hi-Y and later honored their mothers with a tea. The club was headed by Mildred Blanke, president; Dolores Barron, vice president; Lena White, secretary; and Molly Dean, treasurer. R« «rv® Officers: Mildred Blanke, Lena White, Molly Dean, Dolores Barron. Language Club Officers: Chris Juflas, Louie Retaloza, Evelyn Peterson. Organized from three small clubs, Latin, French, and Spanish, the new, large Language club was begun this year. The meetings were held during home room period. Programs consisted of skits and musical numbers in several languages by the members of the different language classes. The officers were chosen from a representative group from the various classes. Louis Ret-taloza was elected president; Chris Juflas, vice president; and Evelyn Peterson, secretary. Miss Conway, Miss Crawford, and Miss Marasco served as sponsors for the club.

Have you ever noticed how they take care of raising and lowering the flag every day?” Yes, Abe, I have, but doesn't this squad have any social functions? Surely. At the first of the year the boys and their dates enjoyed a chili supper. They also had several picnics during the year. A worthwhile organization! said Joan as they continued on their way. A dance held in conjunction with the Rifle club started the year's activity for the Future Farmers of America. Money raised from the year's activities was used to pay the expenses of the delegates to the State Judging Contest and used to help build an F. F. A. camp. Jack McIntyre served as president; Ralph Kinney, vice president; Bob Campbell, secretary; Alvin Lumbardy, treasurer; Norman Billings, reporter, and Mr. Lindblad was the advisor.

Membership is comprised of girls taking the high school home economics course. The purpose of the club is to develop teamwork, and to contribute toward the happiness and well being of the girls' home, school, and community life. The girls enjoy many social activities during the year, aside from regular curricular work. Several special projects, such as serving hot lunches and selling candy, were undertaken to raise money for the club. Spurring the teams on to victory this year made another active season for the members of the Pep club. In orange and black uniforms, the organization added color and zest to our football and basketball games by maneuvering between halves.

Say, Abe, Grand Junction high school really should be proud to have a service club such as Hi-Y, said Joan, as she and Abe left one of the Hi-Y meetings. It certainly has shown what an active club can do, by giving membership to the Y. M. C. A., sponsoring a western slope convention for high school boys, and sending delegates to Canon City for a conference, added Abe. The boys also enjoyed a picnic with the Tri-S girls; and a dinner with the Girl Reserves. Its many activities have been guided by its sponsor, Mr. Bergner, and officers were: Tommy Litton, president; Albert Erskine, vice-president; Bill Stine, secretary-treasurer; Ty Harbert, sergeant at arms. To gain admission into the G. J. H. S. G club, each boy has to have been awarded a school letter for his participation in one of the sports, such as football, basketball, track or wrestling. It is a highly coveted honor to gain admission into this club. The schedule of the club's yearly activities included the sponsoring of two very successful dances, and also ushering at many basketball games Sponsors of this serviceable organization of boys are: Coach Whalley, Coach Red White, and Coach Hunn. The officers this year were: Del Allgood, president; Warren Coffey, vice president; and Bill Clark, secretary-treasurer.

The members decided at the first meeting they would not elect officers but would join with the City Ski club and send delegates to the Ski Council. The annual two-day ski trip was abandoned because of lack of housing facilities. Under the guidance of Mr. Walton, who became sponsor when Mr. Eddy left for military service, the Tennis club, a comparatively new organization, completed a full year of successful activities. Both intramural and ladder tournaments were held among the members of the club. Winners of these matches competed with out-of-town teams. Officers of the club this year were: Don Strain, president; Shirley Myers, vice president; Jim Heinlein, secretary; Betty McKeever, treasurer. A new feature was the election of an executive council consisting of a member from each of the four classes within the club and officers of the Tennis club.

INTRAMURAL With the advent of war in this country has come the demand for strong, healthy men who can withstand terrific physical punishment and nerve-wracking mental work. The burden of developing the bodies of the young men has fallen chiefly on the athletic program of the schools. At G. J. H. S. this program has three phases: interscholastic competition, intramural sports and physical education classes. Through this program it is possible to reach 90 per cent of the boys in school. The intramural phase is especially important, as its participants are usually students not engaged in other athletics. The intramural program provides a wide variety of activities. They are: touch football, basketball, wrestling, free-throw contests, softball, valleyball, horseshoes, and tennis. Points are also awarded for participation in the annual interclass track and field meet. The intramural program is organized by the home room and class leaders who form the Intramural council. This council makes the rules and settles disputes arising from the contests. At the end of the year, pennants are presented to each victorious room and the intramural champion is crowned.

These words have often been repeated by the high school students and townspeople ever since Red White and Ed Whalley teamed to coach championship football at G. J. H. S. With only three regular men returning from the 1940 state co-champ eleven, it seemed impossible to equal or even approach the fine record of the previous season. Yet this team did everything but win the championship. They licked Fort Collins' state championship aggregation 2-0, and also beat Jordan, the Utah Champs, 7-6. They whipped Price 19-18 and trimmed Montrose 13-7. They soundly trounced Craig 43-6, Delta 35-0, Englewood 33-0, and Cortex 27-6. Their lone defeat came in the state quarter-finals when they lost a heart-breaker to the Salida Spartans. An account of this team would be most incomplete without at least paying tribute to its excellent co-captains: Carl Cox, triple-threat fullback, who passed, kicked, and outran the best teams in the intermountain district, and Dan Porter, who again this year was chosen all-state guard. Space does not permit mention of the fine play of individual members, who carried on the Tiger tradition through the toughest schedule ever assigned to a Bengal crew.

Second row: Mr. Whalley, Clerk, Wegner, Allgood, Dykstre, Cox. Climaxing a three-year drive for the state championship, a senior wrestling squad this year gained the state crown while copping three individual championships. Repeating last year’s victories were Captain Jack White in the 127-pound class and Sherman Wagner in the heavyweight bracket. A new face among the Tiger immortals was Bill Ellsberry, who triumphed in the 145-pound class. This year marked the fourth consecutive time that the Tigers have walked off with three individual trophies. Del Allgood, twice state champ, was lost to the team, but substituting in his stead was Carl Cox, who pinned his first state opponent, thereby contributing to the team total. Another heartbreak came in the finals of the 154-pound class, when Lemar Dykstra lost his match in the last 29 seconds after leading all the way. Invaluable, however, were Gus Cholas, Bill Clark, and Bob Yant, whose third-place points assured the Bengals of victory. The championship came as a brilliant windup to the story-book career of Ed Whalley. In the last half-decade Whalley-wrestlers have finished first twice and second three times. Nosed out for three seasons by North Denver, the Bengals gained revenge by trimming the Vikings of North by 13 points.

Montrose, Craig, and Palisade were the next victims. The following week the Tigers were defeated by Fruitvale. Fruitvale held the valley lead until the Tigers defeated them on their own floor. Playing the tie off at Palisade, the Tigers defeat-ed Fruitvale to become champs of the valley. AK ‘° c rdon The Tigers' first game in the Delta Tournament found Hotchkiss in the opening ©opposition The Bengals won, 47-20. Delta played the opposing role in the semifinal game. The Tigers won a very close game, 34-31. The final opponent was Montrose in one of the most exciting games ever played in the tournament—the Tigers winning 60-57. Those receiving all-conference ratings were Bill Stine, Bud Flockhart, Sene Doss, and Frank Doss. The Tigers entered the State Tournament and were defeated in their game with Ault, and then lost the consolation game to Alamosa 45-39. A note of tragedy was added to the season just a week after its close, when Bud Vincent Nourt Flockhart, star junior, died. Georg Juflat Jim Heinlin Rollin Wil«on Jack Moor Jim Tr c Don Coop track Fir t row: Paul Bonnell, Dick Hutton, Carol Gilbert. Second row: Morris Ficklin, Bob Rice, Bill Nimmo, Jim Heinline, Gene Nakano, Rolin Cato, Dan Porter. With 16 returning veterans, it took no crystal ball to forecast that once again the Tiger cinder aces would make their mark. Back to form, the nucleus of the '42 track squad were Warren Coffey, 10-second dash man, and Bill Clark, slope titleholder in the 880 yard dash. Both placed high in their respective distances at the state meet last season. Coffey suffered a broken ankle in football and has found it difficult to hit his stride again. Clark, on the other hand, is one of the best possibilities in years to crack the half--mile record. Great things also are expected of Dan Porter and Dick Hutton. Porter has done a fine job of filling Red Briggs' place in the weights, while Hutton has showed up well in the hurdles. Other returning letter men included Brown and Nimmo in the dashes, Osborn and Cato in the distances, Heinlein and Ficklin in the high jump, Stine and Kraai in the hurdles, and Nakano, Rice, and Bonnell in the middle distances. Winners of State Track Relay Athletics, one of the most popular parts of G. J. H. S., is represented by Gus Cholas. At the top of Gus' list of favorite sports are football, wrestling, hunting, and ice skating. Chemistry, books by Jack London, fruit, horses, brown, and dancing rank high with Gus. And, when all by himself, he really gets hot on the clarinet or the mouth harp. Gus wants to go to college and later become a pilot or a forest ranger. That young lady with the blonde hair and blue eyes that you saw dashing around the school trying to get the annual out on time is Barbara Graves. Barb spends much time skiing, swimming, or horseback riding. Since her ambition is to go to C. U. and study creative writing, we can see why her hobby is letter writing. Barbara is happiest when she is either eating a steak, walking in the rain, or at a formal dance. The studious part of G. J. H. S. is well represented by Donald Strain. To get an education and become a doctor are his chief ambitions. Donnie is 5' 7 and has light brown hair and blue eyes. His favorite sport is basketball and he was on the team in his junior and senior years. Don loves to eat The name Evelyn Peterson may not register to some students, but when Pete is mentioned they think of the gal with the pleasant personality and lovely blond hair. Her Sundays in winter are devoted to skiing. Other times she loves to read. Although Pete plans to major in education at Mesa College and Stanford University she has no definite career in mind. No matter what she does, she wants to have fun doing it and not spend time brooding over her troubles. Bill Stine’s combination of looks, personality and scholarship really make nim most representative. Bill has been batching it this year, which has convinced him that he should marry when he is 31. He plans to study pharmacy at Washington University. Among Bill's rather eccentric likes are: retiring at nine o'clock, getting up at two o'clock, eating, and then going to bed again; eating green onions, and playing basketball in his room with a coffee can for a basket. Being a southern belle in the senior play was Helen Jane McCormick's biggest thrill in high school. Mr. Whalley, Clark Gable, and butterscotch pie fall under her classification, dream divine. She wanted to be a navy dietician even before the war. Helen Jane likes to write stories, but doesn't like to have others read them. Along the musical line she likes all marches except wedding marches, as she doesn't want to get married. I think all men are egotistical but cute, was her closing remark. — Al Porter—2nd Prize Shirlie Howell— 3rd Prize In order to give a cross-section of life at S. J. H.
