Besides classroom study there are many activities to which we have given a portion of that passing time, chief among which are the little services that each of us render in making school days a pleasant remembrance. All of us do out part, whether it be on an athletic team, the ticket squad, the Caveman patrol, or in a musical organization. Some of these tasks we havA undertaken may have been distasteful, others pleasant, but all of them together have helped build our character. So to all the organizations that serve to maintain our student body the Toka staff dedicates this book. - ; 3 3 3 3 a When THE NEW TURF field was planted in the spring of '41 varsity football moved east of the old building for a NEW PRACTICE FIELD.

DAN BEYER President’s Message The school year of 1941-42 has come to an end. It has been an exciting year — one of war, reverses, and sacrifices. Along with our other much loved luxuries must go the school annual. The TOKA will be edited and printed no more for the duration. This year the student body excelled all past ones in its policy of giving. The students bought defense stamps and bonds every Wednesday in the halls. One home room alone bought over a hundred dollars worth. The students supported and gave money to two Red Cross drives, the annual roll call and a war relief fund. Old paper for national defense was collected and student admission to one basketball games was two pounds of paper. A book week was held for obtaining books for the enjoyment of soldiers at the Grants Pass Hospitality house. Donations were made to help make Braille books for the blind. To show their increased patriotism, every student gave one cent or more so the student body could purchase a new- flag. In this year of national emergency Grants Pass high, like other schools, gave a number of its students and faculty members to the armed forces of our Nation. Although the policy of the armed forces and the schools was to allow students to finish their current school year, many, because of their eagerness to fight, could not wait and joined before the school term was over. Rights and obligations are inherited by all Americans. In peace and national security, Americans forget many of their obligations and remember only their rights. But in war, these obligations must be immediately recalled to mind and re-learned in order to preserve unity and independence. Many of the students at Grants Pass high have learned that their obligations to their country are just as important as the rights they expect it to give. They have learned this from taking part in school activities and sharing in the responsibilities. These students are ready to take their place as citizens. They are ready to support their country in danger or in peace and will not have to learn the necessity of doing their share and carrying out their obligation. As for myself, I have never had a more enjoyable or beneficial year than this one as student body president. [PAGE NINE] MR. M. B. WINSLOW. Superintendent Administrative Heads Serve School The school administration of School District No. 7, Josephine County, Oregon, is a board of directors of five members: Edward H. Gohrke, Chairman; Emil Gebers, H. M. Metcalf, Morris Milbank, and Sam J. Stinebaugh. This board of directors employes a clerk. Miss Lilian Fosbery, who keeps an accurate record of all board meetings, and assists in carrying out the policies of the board. She is the custodian of all funds of the district and makes all disbursements of funds as directed by the board. The board of directors employs a superintendent who is the executive agent of the board. It is his duty to keep the board informed of the operation of the schools, to make recommendations, and to carry out the policies of the board. The board of directors is an agency of the state of Oregon elected by the citizens of School District No. 7 as their representatives to provide education facilities for the youth of this community in accordance with the requirements of the State of Oregon and the desires of the citizens of the school district. Each member of the board is glad to give generously of his services to the school district. Each is proud of the excellent group of students in the Grants Pass high school and their achievements. Gohrke. Chairman Milbank Geber Stinebaugh Metcalf [PAGE TEN] Miss Betta Harris MR. HKNRY E. TETZ, Principal Miss Carol Qibson Principal's Message What could be more appropriate in these times of adversity than to dedicate ourselves and our lives to the service of our country and to the American Way of Life? The TOKA staff is to be highly commended for the spirit which prompted the dedication to SERVICE and particularly to those individuals and organizations who put it into effective action. There is no true greatness except the greatness of service to others. Service is active unselfishness, not merely something to be conceived in the mind of man, but something to be felt, to be experienced and this is never effective unless it is convened into action. Let us always maintain a sense of gratitude toward those who do the work of the world, and particularly the hard, unpleasant, monotonous and dangerous work. We must make a comprehensive effon to attach a sense of worthiness and dignity to all forms of socially useful labor. Our first responsibility, everyone of us, whether he be in civilian life or in uniform, is to make the thing he is defending defensible. The things that are wrong with democracy are the things that are wrong with you and with me, with individual men and women. Our patriotism must go into action in our daily life — we become strong in virtue by practicing virtue. Forced in spite of ourselves to think and do, we have a chance to grow in personal integrity and moral stature as individuals, and thus not only preserve our heritage of freedom intact but enrich it for transmission to posterity.

Where Democracy is Practiced Not dust particles of force , but individuals in a democracy, is the keynote of all activities undertaken by the administrative branches of the Grants Pass student government, consisting of the executive board and both upper and lower division student councils. This viewpoint is brought to light even more by the increased size of the executive board and the added activities undertaken by the councils. Proving the most active of the eleven committees appointed by the executive board, the assembly committee composed of Miss Lynnetta Quinlan, Miss Bertha Calhoun, Donald Ewing, Dan Beyer, Chester Carlson, Jackie Tetz, Roberta Bestul, Wally Reid, Pat Breitmayer, Gladys Goodwin, Dorothy Wallman, Bill Davis, and Sally Milbank is providing one of the many entertainments to which the student s fee of one dollar entitles him. Another committee that was of great service to the school was the club committee, whose members are Miss Ruth Kelly, Otis Wilson, Miss Mary Margaret Woodward, Betty Peake, Lillian Ruth Ladd, Bill Rice, Wayne Norton, Virginia Bestul, and Renita Nunn. This committee undertook the responsibility of arranging the meeting schedule of the various clubs. Since participation in clubs is one advantage of modern education, all students in the lower division are required to belong to a club, and members of the upper division are encouraged to join at least one of the many clubs at their disposal. A third committee composed of Miss Sarah Parr, Miss Nina Johnson, Merlin Morey, Tom Horn, Dick Eismann, Jean Probst, Diane Knox, Betty Jean Steward, Bob Shier, and Merwin Spalding arranged the Monday homeroom programs which both upper and lower division follow. Both the student councils and the executive board undertook such worthwhile projects as: the forming of the student defense committee to combat the problems that would arise from possible air raids; inaugurating the selling of defense bonds and stamps, which proved to be very successful; the paper-saving campaign which netted the government a goodly amount of this much needed product; working with the Scroll staff in establishing policies of better student cooperation; revising the student body constitution; purchasing a camera for use by the Toka staff; and promoting better safety conditions. Advantages that all students enjoyed as members of the student body were: the right to participate in activities by representing the high school on athletic teams, staffs of publications, and debate teams; admission to all athletic, dramatic and musical presentations of the student body; subscription to the Scroll; and seven or more professional assemblies that are educational and entertaining.

Pacific Relation [PAGE SIXTEEN] Seniors Set New Example for School To get in the swing of their last school year, the senior class used the theme swing school for their annual reception in honor of the class of ’44. All of the new teachers were in the receiving line, which was headed by Tom Horn, class president. In collaboration with John S. Devereaux and the a cappella choir, the senior class presented the Christmas program. Petie Young acted as Santa Claus, distributing gifts to various students and the youngest members of the faculty, Miss Marjorie Fairclo and Richard Highland. Operating the president’s gavel this year was Tom Horn. Working with him were such capable officers as Jerry Zottola, vice-president; Joan Signor, secretary-treasurer; and Petie Young, student council representative. The class as a whole also sponsored dress-up-day and their class play. This year saw the beginning of a new custom, that of the senior class preceding the other classes in leaving the gymnasium after assemblies. As usual, the first week in June was an especially busy one for the seniors, because their graduation activities were held during this week. The Sunday preceding graduation was baccalaureate; Monday was class night, the senior award night; and on June 5 the graduation exercises were held. The class of 42 has been con- Besldes being class president, Tom Horn is also a baseball letterman, member of Varsity G . and a member of the Hl-Y.

Students active as class officers throughout the previous years were: Bob Hav-ard, Eugene Farthing, Dave Pruess, Petie Young, Ed Hoffmaster, Dan Beyer, Gladys Goodwin, Herschel Cox, Dick Eismann, Gene Allison, Dorothy Green, and Pat Breit-mayer. Advisers for the senior class are Miss Dorothea Wilkens, Miss Princess Egbert, and Robert Yeo. FIRST ROW: Raymond ---------- ------, Gene Farthing. Donald Hiller. Jack Houser, Bobby ----------.

J KRRY EDWARDS Another year has passed, and for the junior class it represents one of completed activities and good management. Presiding over the gavel was Jerry Edwards, who has proven himself a leader. Helping with his duties were Bill Davis, vice-president; Freddie Love, secretary; and Ray Clayton, student body representative. Participation in various kinds of activities, student body affairs, dramatics, sports, social events, and graduation, marked the juniors as outstanding. The junior class play Oh, Kay was presented to a packed house on the night of November 14. The junior class sponsored the after-the-game-dance immediately following the Grants Pass-Klamath Falls football game, October 30. The long anticipated junior prom was worthy of all the acclaim granted it, as it was a great success. At the senior graduation formal-clad junior girls held the flower covered arches for the seniors march to the platform. The juniors made a very good showing at the carnival following the Grants Pass-Med ford football game, at which a junior girl, Mary Jane Lee. was the honored Caveman sweetheart. The traditional junior flunk day was carried off with a bang, as was the juniors' part in the annual sign parade. All due credit must go to the faculty advisers.

WALLY MARTIN The pace that the class of 44 has set this year might easily be compared with the rhythm of the Toppers , a swing band originated by, and composed chiefly of, sophomores. Being the only one of its kind in the school, the band, with its inspiring members, deserves credit for its accomplishments not only as a band, but as a project for showing class pep and enthusiasm. Members of the class took their position in the upper division with the dignity and poise of veterans, giving little chance for the juniors and seniors to show their superiority and commanding the respect of the school as a whole. An industrious group of officers was elected, headed by Wally Martin, president. Assisting Wally were: Culver Marshall, vice-president; Beverly Ownbey, secretary-treasurer; and Gaylord Smith, student council representative. Class advisers were Miss Sarah Parr, Miss Marjorie Fairclo, and Justin A. Weakley. The sophomores' social life began by the senior reception held in their honor on September 27. Then, on November 28, the sophomore informal was staged. A large turn out proved its ability as an active class. This class, so well organized and containing so many vigorous members with the abilities of leadership and cooperation, cannot help but be successful. Toppers Set Rythm for Sophomores FIRST ROW: D.

BURDKLL BROWN Witches rode high while ghosts and black cats were seen in abundance at the all freshmen party on October 24. The party was carried out in the Halloween theme, and during the evening the students danced and played games. By this well planned party, an event traditionally outstanding, the freshmen proved their ability socially. An efficient group of officers was elected to guide the class throughout the year. With Burdell Brown as president, other officers included vice-president, Joyce Gabehart; secretary, Beverly Clark; and student council representative, Joanne Smith. On the evening before the Klamath Falls-Grants Pass football game the freshmen built the traditional bonfire for the rally. After being destroyed by upper classmen twice it was finally rebuilt in time for the rally that night. This year a plucky freshmen football team was developed by Coach Otis Wilson. The lower classmen gave excellent support to the team and were very cooperative with the freshmen yell leaders. The excellent one-act play, Three’s a Crowd , was successfully presented by this class. These outstanding achievements of the freshmen class gave evidence that this class will have its share of outstanding scholars and athletes. Activities Ride High With Freshmen FIRST ROW: I. Jones.

[PAGE THIRTY-FIVE] PRESIDENT, DEE CULLISON At the close of their second year in the six year high school the class of '46 has not only excelled in citizenship and scholarship but also taken part in various school activities. Officers for the year as chosen by the students were Dee Cullison, president; Patsy Shepard, vice-president; Janie Allen, secretary-treasurer; and Roy Stauch, student representative. These students also took an active part in school clubs. The eighth grade boys played football on the lower division team, but formed their own basketball team and played a game a week under the supervision of Coach Merlin Morey. They played baseball in the spring. The class social activities started in the fall with the lower division mixer, at which there was a large turnout of eighth graders. In October the eighth grade girls played little sister to the freshmen girls in a revised Big Sister party. In the latter part of April the annual eighth grade party was held in the form of a skating party on the tennis courts. This class had a large attendance in these clubs: Lower Division Honor, Glee club, Folk Dancing, Etiquette, Hobby, Dramatics, Library and El Dee. Many eighth graders were present in the band and orchestra. Dee Cullison Heads Progressive Class FIRST ROW: J. Campbell. M. Campbell. Dauntless. Crlppen. Egger. Brocksen. Dlmmick, Conner. Anderson.

[PAGE THIRTY-SEVEN] PRESIDENT, DICK LOVELL V for victory was proven by the seventh graders as they marched down the street with their colorful signs in the annual sign parade. The enthusiastic graders worked industriously together to win a victory from the upperclassmen. Dick Lovell was chosen as president of the class for ’42 and those helping him were: Warner Buehler, vice-president; Nancy Youngblood, secretary; DeWane Brown, student council representative. Much of their success is due to Miss Bertha Calhoun, Miss Ruth Kelly, and Robert Nichol, who were the class advisers. The new class has taken an active part in the long list of activities offered them in their daily program. They were well represented in the lower division mixer sponsored by the lower division Girls' League, with the freshmen girls acting as big sisters. They have also taken an active part in clubs, sports, and music. They have four outstanding members active in Glee club. Weanie Brown represented them on the junior varsity football squad. He was the only seventh grader on the team. He did outstanding work and received his letter. The students finished their year in full swing by holding their annual party. Now that they have proven themselves socially, athletically, and studiously a bright future can be seen for them when they have a chance to be student leaders.

Members work hard at such duties as putting up chairs in the gym, directing traffic at football games, and patroling the grounds. Benefits received from work in the Caveman Patrol are the spirit to stick to a job until it is done, the spirit of unselfishness, and the willingness to aid others. Pat Breitmayer led the group this year, assisted by Bob Marcus, vice-president; Melvin Single, secretary-treasurer; Bob Beyer, student council representative. In developing pleasant relations with the public, the Ticket Squad has, by courteous, friendly, and efficient service, proved its value to the school. This year's squad of twenty members carried out their duties of selling and taking tickets at all school functions in a professional manner. Jack Steward, ticket manager, had charge of distribution of student body tickets and the federal tax on all tickets. Members are admitted only on recommendation of faculty advisers. Orin W.

Under the leadership of Margaret Ferris, president; Wilma Dressel, vice-president; Wanda Dimmick, secretary; Nan Wetherbee, treasurer; and Miss Helen Wirtenberger, adviser; the girls had a successful year. At a meeting held early in the year the girls agreed on uniform white sweaters with blue service stripes. At the same time they made a law to the effect that no girl shall be allowed to show more stripes than she has earned. The club sponsored the Caveman sweetheart, Mary Jane Lee, who reigned over the Grants Pass-Med ford football game and the carnival which followed. On the night of November 7, the girls, in cooperation with the Varsity ”G”, sponsored a hilarious Sadie Hawkins' Day dance. The girls also sold candy at various games.

[PAGE FIFTY] Sigma Sigma Adopts Service Policy In former years the members of the Sigma Sigma have used their funds for the purchase of scientific instruments, while this year public service has become the theme of the club. Under the theme of public service the club donated its funds to the Red Cross, buying of shrubbery for the school, and the paying off turf bonds. Some of the activities during the year were selling candy during the noon hour, completing work on the Wilson Cloud Chamber, and for the first time in the club's history the new members formally received their initiatory degrees at an evening banquet in the Caves Grotto of the Redwoods Hotel. About twenty members were present. Warren Bailey was guest speaker. Field trips of the Sigma Sigma are always found entertaining as well as educational for the members. These have included visiting the museum in Jacksonville, watching gold being taken from the earth by dredges, and visiting the phenomenal House of Mystery, among other places of interest in southern Oregon. These trips are financed by the club. Membership qualifications were revised so that five of the twenty-five members would be sophomores. All members must have grades above average, following a scientific course, and have some kind of scientific project. A few of these projects were: fingerprinting, taxidermy, and scrapbooks on science. The Sigma Sigma made outstanding accomplishments during the year under their new adviser Robert A. Weibel.

Every month during this past year it has had an exchange program with the Girls' Etiquette club. This program consisted of a skit in which the proper use of good manners was demonstrated. They did not stress formality but the cultivation of everyday courtesy and mannerism in which members engaged during the course of their school day. Questions concerning etiquette were discussed at length during meetings. Leonard Gardner was president of the club. Gaylord Smith was secretary-treasurer. Devoted to the personal improvement of the individual members, the Girls’ Etiquette club was reorganized this year under able leadership of Miss Ruth Kelly. The club attempted to show the value of practicing good conduct and good manners in all of life’s activities, giving each girl an opportunity to learn and practice the principles of good conduct. Once a month the club held an exchange program with the Boys’ Etiquette club, using for their study book Manners for Millions.” The officers elected to serve the past year included: Helen Woolfolk, president; Wanda Freitag, secretary; Roberta Smith, treasurer.

The Home Economics club girls have been ready to help our busy world these days. Through their three objectives to develop personality, leadership, and initiative they have gained ability this past year to be of much service. Perhaps the most outstanding activity on their social calendar was the formal candlelight ceremony held November 7 in the new gym. The spirits of home living were represented by the Spirit of Health, Dependability, Cooperation, Home Living, Charm and Happiness. To twenty-two initiates each spirit explained how she contributed to harmony in the home. A program and refreshments followed the ceremony. Other activities of the Home Economics club included several joint meetings with other clubs. In February the girls met with the FFA boys for a Valentine's party. Later they met with the FBPW girls while Miss Dorothea Wilkens showed her moving pictures of a trip she took in Mexico. Keeping the jardinieres in the halls of the buildings filled with flowers was a project of the club. The freshmen girls took up a knitting project. Officers this year were: Betty Holmes, president; Mae Moorehead, vice-president; Betty Steward, secretary. [PAGE FIFTY-THREE] FIRST ROW: Reid, Wood, Yordon. Hopper, Fitch, Kibbe. Stach. Gordon. B.

Qlee Clubs Help With Assemblies This past year both the upper and lower division Glee clubs became more indispensable to the school than ever before, particularly by helping with assemblies. For the first semester, John S. Devereaux was adviser for the clubs, being replaced when he joined the navy, by Francis Snook. Officers for the upper division included: Roy Jones, president; Margaret Ferris, secretary treasurer; LaRene Thompson, student council representative; and Wanda Johnson, librarian.

Each of these boys produced a fine record of athletic prowess and club leadership throughout the school year. Highlights of the year included the Sadie Hawkins Barn Dance given in the fall with the help of Girls' Letter club. One interesting feature was the fact that the girls invited the boys and paid in accordance to the boys waistline. It will be remembered as one of the most successful informal dances ever held in the high school gym as a good time was had by all.” Other activities u’ere: a dance in the spring and different projects sponsored by Varsity G” Basketball Coach Arnold Bernard acted as adviser for the club.

Santa was there too. Proceeds of the financially successful dance w-ent towards the Mothers’ Tea which was held in May and featured the latest styles from the homemaking department. Another money raising project was selling hot dogs and candy at the football games, which was fi- nancially successful- Speaking of food, the upper division girls had a chili feed and treasure hunt, and in April the girls had their annual run during Girls’ League Week. Topping all social activities for the lower division girls was the Big-Little sister picnic in the park. Wieners and trimmings filled the menu. Freshmen girls were big sisters to the seventh and eighth grade girls. All these activities were under the direction of Dorothy Green, upper division president; Jane Thompson, lower division president; and Miss Lynnetta Quinlan, adviser. FIRST ROW: Allen.

Forestry and Stage Crews Work for School February 13, 1942, as well as being Friday the thirteenth, was Arbor Day. The Forestry club of Grants Pass High School, which was established in 1941, began on this day the planting of some 10.000 trees on the high school forest, consisting of 1200 acres situated three miles southwest of Grants Pass. This acreage was donated to the high school last year by Josephine County, who obtained it through tax delinquency. The conservation of this unimproved forest as a high school project is the only project of its kind in the state of Oregon. Bang! Bang! What's that noise? Oh, that's just the stage crew, building the stage scenery for the program tomorrow. Yes, the stage crew, known as the Back Numbers have a noisy and also an active time building and changing stage secenery. These boys, advised by Donald Ewing, keep the stages of both buildings in condition for any and every program or assembly.

The club’s able leaders were: Gene Allison, president; Harold Everton, vice-president; Dave Pruess, secretary; and Gene Farthing, treasurer. The club this year saw many activities, the more important one being the annual Hi-Y dance which was held on February 28 after the Grants Pass-Medford basketball game. The dance was one of the highlights of the year. With the whirling wind of March the clubs of Grants Pass, Medford, Ashland, Klamath Falls and Roseburg held an Older Boys conference at Medford. Another regular tag week for the Hi-Y ended with the auction of lost articles in the assembly. The Hi-Y club and all it stands for is clearly explained in it's motto which is: To create, maintain and extend, throughout the school and community, high standard of Christian character.” Above.

Future Farmers Take Honors Proving that success can come year after year the Future Farmers have again completed an active season. An early start was made in the summer when Pat Breitmayer and Frank Price won honors at the state wide better farming and shop contest. The Future Farmers also presented a large livestock and shop exhibit at the local county fair. In October four members, Pat Breitmayer, Lloyd Mathews, Bill Woolfolk, and James Vencill with W. S. Carpenter, their adviser, were representatives of the chapter at the Pacific International livestock Exhibition in Portland, Oregon. This is the largest exhibit of its kind in the west. The traditional father and son banquet was held in February. In March, Lloyd Mathews participated in the annual district parliamentary and public speaking contest. The club then traveled to Corvallis and attended the state convention. Officers were: Pat Breitmayer, president; Lloyd Math- ews, vice-president; Bill Rice, secretary; Bill Woolfolk, treasurer; Edward Sakraida, reporter; and Mr. Carpenter, faculty adviser. Above.

[PAGE SIXTY] Craftsmen Meet in Portland The Grants Pass chapter of Future Craftsmen was well represented in the Oregon Junior Safety Congress last March. All eighteen chapters in Oregon met at the Imperial hotel in Portland under a state president. This trip to Portland as well as being a pleasure and much work for the boys and John W. Ludvigson, adviser, was extremely educational to the boys because more than half of the time there was spent visiting huge plants and industries. The contests which were entered by the Grants Pass chapter were First Aid, Public Speaking, Safety Posters and Parliamentary Law. The annual Apprentice Banquet given to the employers was a great success last spring. Besides the Apprentice Craftsmen and their employers, those present were Henry E. Tetz, high school principal; M. B. Winslow, superintendent of city schools; and the members of the Apprenticeship commission. Music was furnished by Martin Trepte and a group of the high school musicians. Another highlight of the school year for the Future Craftsmen was the sponsoring of a no-charge, no-date dance after the Ashland-Grants Pass basketball game on February 21, with the Toppers” playing. The place for initiation of new members alternates between Grants Pass and Medford each year, with a joint affair. Last October initiation was held here at Grants Pass. One of the entertaining Below we see the F. C. O. team in action. r irjii aiq features was a movie showing the Grants Pass boys working on their jobs, and their employers. On February 25 the Craftsmen visited the Medford chapter and held conference contests in parliamentary law and public speaking.

Divided into two separate groups, the upper and lower division, the two clubs held their meetings on every other Thursday. Members of the club consisted of all the students who worked behind the desk and in the workrooms of the old study hall and the new library'. At the meetings w'ays and means of making the library work more convenient were discussed. Students were also taught essentials of catologing and how to take care of books. After becoming acquainted with the new methods of filing books and cards, checking in and out of books, and typing data, the student librarians become more adept at their work. Upper division officers were: Helen Shepard, president; Melba Dixon, vice-president; and Kathleen McShane, secretary.

[PAGE SIXTY-TWO] Prop Spinners” Build Qas Models Students of the Grants Pass high school had a chance to test their interest in aviation in the past year. The club, 'Prop Spinners, which was established under the supervision of Clinton Dy-singer, with Bob Thompson as president, has been an active and growing organization. The main objects of the club have been to teach members airplane principles, how to make better airplanes, and how to hold model meets in which members try out their plane models in competitive endurance. Tinkering with gas engines has given the club much fun along with the mechanical knowledge learned. The club has built only gas models and have derived their name Prop Spinners from the cranking of these gas engines. Led by Bob Thompson, president, the club held discussion meetings once a month on future airplane contests, airplane construction, gas engines, and different kinds of airplane news. Members were given an opportunity to express their ideas and arguments for their plane or motor. In an early meeting, Earl Ritesma of Medford with a model he built, explained model building and many different ways to perfect the model to make it accurate and as near perfect as possible. At a later meeting Earl gave a flying exhibition of one of his models and gave the club a great deal more valuable information on building, flying, and pointers on contest flying. During the second semester Prop Spinners” had the privilege of meeting twice a week. Because of the extremely long time it takes to construct a model, this extra day proved most advantageous for club mem- Above. Bob Thompson, president. Below.

This year the club, consisting of 32 members, under the direction of Miss Alice Mueller, carried on several projects, the main one being a three-hour field trip in May to study landscaping. Other projects were the making of stained glass windows, studying styling and figuring, and molding clay figures. At Christmas a paper chreche was made. Officers were. Billie Draper, president, Betty’ Hobart, vice-president, and Merle Samain, secretary and student council representative. Led by President Bob Prow the Radio club doubled its membership, collected a higher per cent of club dues, built an especially good attendance record, and accomplished more for the club than in any previous year. Besides being a good means of recreation, hobby, and an educational basis for future radio workers, club members believe that the radio theory they learn will be invaluable. Almost all members will return next year to share in the work of the club. With these returning members the club has very bright prospects for the future. FIRST ROW: G. Cok-m a n , B. Cleveland.

Vitamin Qirls Enthusiastic Those girls really get their vitamins! Such might be the exclamation of an onlooker taking note of the Pep clubs cheering section at any of the games during the past year. Under the direction of Wilma Dressel. president, the club was reorganized and many new members admittted. These novices were brought into the club through a comic initiation staged on the same day as that of the Varsity G. This year the girls took many projects upon themselves including the decoration of the field and gym for the games and providing entertainment at the halves of the basketball games. They also sponsored several informal dances held after the games and a yell contest in which they offered prizes for the best entries. Officers who assisted Wilma were: Barbara Grove, vice-president; Kathryn Moyer, secretary-treasurer; Norma McClellan, student council representative; Margaret Ferris, sergeant-at-arms.

More school spirit. That is the thought that pops into one’s mind when he hears the Drum and Bugle Corps. These girls performed at almost every game played here during football and basketball seasons, besides going to Ashland in January to play during the half of a basketball game. At the football game here with Klamath Falls, the Drum and Bugle Corps combined with the band, both in maneuvers and music, for the first time. This marks the end of the second year of the girls Drum and Bugle Corps, organized this year under the leadership of Miss Helen Wirtenberger, girls athletic coach. The Drum and Bugle Corps now consists of twelve buglers, six drummers, one bass drummer, one cymbal player, and one majorette. This is the same enrollment as last year, but several girls have dropped out because of after school practice, and others have replaced them. At the present time there is only one senior in the corps. Martin Trepte, high school band and orchestra instructor, and Miss Wirtenberger, directed the musical and drill practice, Tuesdays and Thursdays after school, in regular season. The girls also came to the high school every other week during the summer to practice. The girls’ drill dress was an ensemble of blue and white, the school colors, with the skirts blue and the jackets white, trimmed in blue. Shoes and stockings were white. For the first time since the organization of the Corps the Grants Pass high school saw the girls form the letter G” on the floor, also the first letter of the name of the visiting schools. Elva Boothe has been manager of the corps for the year. Her job was to see that all uniforms were properly taken care of, and be responsible for the instruments. She must also be able to fill in in case of absence. [PAGE SIXTY-SIX] i 5 « i ' ' - - - - ■ if f if ' ’ ■ 9 ' A highlight among school events was the annual orchestra concert.

It took fifty-four students from the seventh to twelfth grades with Martin Trepte, director, to let out swing as never heard before. Blue and white uniforms on the green turf made a striking picture. Recognition should be given to each and every student for his ability and willingness to perform at the games, parades, and assemblies. Outstanding of the orchestra activities was the annual concert on March 6. Under Mr. Trepte's able direction a successful pay performance was held for the public. Featured in the concert were: Helen Garner, piano soloist; and student conductors Betty Hanner, Betty McColm, and Henry Howard.

The senior class play, Ever Since Eve, a three-act comedy, was presented on April 11, drawing the curtain on the dramatic season. Co-directors of the play were Miss Thompson and Mr. Ewing. Leading students in the play included Jim McCormick, Joan Signor, Eleanor Shaw, Harold Reed, and Pete Young. Members of the Junior class display their ability of characterization in “Oh!

Publications Portray School Life 'There are going to be some changes made! That was what the journalism students said at the beginning of this school year. The aim of the journalism class this year was to emphasize the policies of the Scroll — the voice of the students. Through editorials, interviews, and features the Scroll brought out the importance of clubs and activities, school spirit, and physical well-being. Ed Hoffmaster, publicity manager, wrote articles of school activities which were published in the Courier. He was assisted by Donna Branch, who wrote for the Bulletin. Look at the Birdie! Most of us did. This year the Toka staff had its own camera. The student body purchased this camera for the use of the Toka with the agreement that all profits from Toka sales would go towards the cost of the camera. The theme, as chosen by Jack Steward, editor, is service, with a dedication to service clubs in general, and the Caveman Patrol in particular. This year the Toka staff decided that each year the color scheme would correspond with the senior class colors. FIRST ROW: Schiefer-stein. Dorothy Turner, editor. Bestul. Reid. Matthews. Woodcock.

The leaders have tried to organize the group to yell in unison and give all they’ve got without any booing. The group meets twice a week to make up new yells and to practice both old and new ones. Early in the year the leaders sponsored a yell contest. The winners of the contest were Roy Hurlburt, first prize; Yvonne Lacanette, second prize; and Imogene Berry, third prize. The leaders in connection with the Pep club and Coach Arnold Bernard put on a radio program to advertise the basketball games. They have led yells for the pep assemblies and put on various skits during games. The group has progressed under the direction of Donald Ewing.

Although from a win and loss record the season was not too brilliant, the experience earned by returning letter-men gives a very promising glow for the following years. Coach Weakley, fresh from the brilliance of Willamette University and all of its gridiron triumphs, launched varsity football toward a much more offensively minded era than at any time in past history. Beginning the season, the gladiators descended upon the coast town of North Bend and succeeded in breaking even in a very thrilling combat, 6-6, coming from behind in the very last minutes of play to tie up the ball game. The following week the Ashland Griz- North Bend Ashland - - Medford Marshfield Myrtle Point Klamath Falls Roseburg SCORE CARD WE THEY 6 6 20 7 19 - 0 7 0 20 - 6 27 13 0 zlies very competently crushed the Caveman team in a heartbreaking contest, 20-0. Returning to the home field, the following wreek the Cavemen tied into the Tigers from Medford in one of the hardest fought contests of the season. Holding them quite successfully throughout the duration of the first half, but losing ground in the second period, the Cavemen lost, 19-7. This game also marked the first game that was held on the new turf field. Probably proving to be the most disappointing game of the season, the Cavemen next ran up against the Marshfield Pirates. Although the Cavemen had the upper hancf throughout the entire game, they came out behind 7-0. At four different times during the game the Grants Pass boys were within a few yards of paydirt, but in every case they failed to come through with a score. Myrtle Point, being the next on the schedule, came to town and finally left for home with a victory, severely crushing the home town hopes by a 20-0 score. Still playing in hard luck the Cavemen next undertook the task of trying to defeat the Pelicans from Klamath Falls, but were soundly trounced instead, Klamath winning in the second half 26-6. Halftime score was 7-6. Thoroughly angered by this time the Cavemen went forth to collect the Roseburg Indians’ scalps. Expecting no quarter and giving none, they poured it on, dumped the Indians severely, and came out on top, 13-0.

Basketball Season One of Many Surprises Looking back over the basketball season of the Caveman hoopsters, we see many happy and not so cheerful sights. On December 2, 1941, the Cavemen quintet played a pre-season game with the Central Point five. Final score of this game was 43 to 13 in favor of the Cavemen. For the first time in Grants Pass high school history the basketball team staged a barnstorming trip into the Willamette valley. On this trip the team played three games winning one of the three. The schools played were: University High, at Eugene, which ended in a 26-22 victory for University High. Next was Corvallis High, at Corvallis, the ending score of this game was 21-17 in favor of Corvallis. Third and last game was played with Junction City. Final score of this game was 34-17 in favor of the Grants Pass Cavemen, this being the only win of the whole trip. After the Willamette trip the team, on January 2, 1942, played the invading Klamath Falls Pelicans. This was a game of true ability and great excitement. The game was Grants Pass' all the way from start to finish. This contest ended with a score of 32-21 in favor of Grants Pass. Later towards the end of the season the Grants Pass quintet journeyed over to Klamath Falls to play a return game with the Pelicans. Klamath Falls started right from the beginning to seek revenge. The first half of the game belonging to the Pelicans because the score was 16-9 when the whistle blew at the half. In the third and last quarters of the game the Caveman five put up a terrific rally, coming up to 28-27 in favor of Grants Pass at the end of the third quarter. Ending quarter of the game brought defeat to the Cavemen by a 6 point margin, 36-30 in favor of Klamath Falls. The Roseburg conference series shows interesting results. The four game series resulted in three wins for Grants Pass. First game of this series had to be written down as a defeat for the Cavemen, with the score resulting in favor of the Roseburg Indians, 24-20. The three games remaining belong exclusively to the Cavemen, which in their respective order were won by 10 point margins. Scores were 41-29, 39-20, 39-25. Ending the season the Caveman hoopsters came through with a victorious win over the Medford Tigers. Incidentally Medford was the Conference Champs for the ISM 1-1942 basketball season. Winning over Medford undermined completely the often spread theory that Medford always had Grants Pass beat before the game started.

Baseball Club Keeps Winning Record Bat’er up was a familiar sound that echoed around the local diamond as another pennant winning team was produced by Merlin Morey, coaching baseball at Grants Pass for the first time. With only eleven lettermen returning from last year, the Cavemen continued its long winning streak which has lasted over a period of four years. With a full schedule, including games with Medford, Ashland, Rogue River, and Jacksonville, Grants Pass initiated the new diamond, which is now the best dirt field in southern Oregon. Veterans pitcher Rusty Martindale and catcher Gene Farthing proved to be the mainstays of the scrappy club that ought to be a constant winner again next year. - ! FRONT ROW: Pruitt. R. Martindale.

Optomistic Hopes Are Held for Track Track season began with many optimistic hopes for great achievements for this year. With several returning lettermen, possibilities of producing an outstanding record are good. Track meets scheduled for this year included the Hayward Relays at Eugene, one at Yreka, California, and the District competition at Medford. All those who place one or two at Medford arc eligible to compete in the State track meet at Corvallis. Last year Grants Pass had two men who placed at the State meet. Bill Davis won first place in the broad jump and Gene Allison placed fifth in the half mile. Allison is expected by many to become State champion in the half mile this year FIRST ROW: Hobson, Brown.

I PAGE SEVENTY-NINE] The Grants Pass high school Cave Kids, who practiced on vacant lots and under sunshine, went big time by scheduling their games on the new grass and under the arc lights. The bantams showed a fast-breaking style with lots of fumbles or something. Cave Kids Have Excellent Varsity Material Under the direction of Head Coach Otis H. Wilson and Assistant Coach Merlin Morey the freshmen football squad launched a fairly successful season against the Medford first year men. Playing with unusual fineness the little Cavemen battled fiercely with the baby Tigers. Although the Tigers came out on top at the end, the game was not decided until the very last, Medford winning 18-13. After losing to Ashland by a score of 19-6 and to Medford with a score of 6-0, the team finally overcame the Grizzly Cubs in a very close return game, 7-0. Although the season was not too successful, excellent varsity material was uncovered for the coming years. FIRST ROW: Davidson, Frey. Pratt. Ausland Mansfield. Freitag. Frame. SECOND ROW: Higgins.

Varsity Material Found in EFDee The 41 -'42 season of lower division basketball showed many promising returns for the future. The freshman team succeeded in winning eight games and losing four. Among these victories over Ashland and Medford. In winning these games the team showed a great deal of spirit and basketball ability. Another outstanding record was made by the eighth grade team. They managed very efficiently in winning the Southern Oregon eighth grade championship. In doing so they trounced Ashland twice and Medford once. Towards the latter part of the season they showed unbelievable finesse for a young team.

Coach Arnold Bernard's varsity tennis team will possibly be on the upgrade this year. Players expected to stand out are Bob Havard, Ray Strowbridge, Don Furchner, Harold Everton, and Tommie Collie. Because of the scarcity of tires the tennis season was confined to Roseburg, Medford, and Ashland, Klamath Falls being dropped from its annual spot on the schedule. Prospects for being conference champions were somewhat better than in previous years, with Ashland the toughest obstacle to overcome. Outstanding netmen under surveillance this year were Bob Havard and Ray Strowbridge, with Havard holding down the top spot. Players to be watched next year are Furchner and Collie. FRONT ROW: Harper.

Fighting Spirit Wins Through for Qirls With triumph the girls’ volleyball teams finished a brilliant season far surpassing the records of the past two years. They were defeated by Rogue River 48-27 in the only loss of the year. Their success may be attributed to several factors: excellent teamwork; a capable new coach. Miss Helen Wirtenberger; Dorothy Fow-ler, their competent man- ager; and last but far from least the good old Grants Pass fighting spirit. Fine sportsmanship was shown not only during the games but afterwards when refreshments were served to the visiting teams. The first team was: Barbara Fithian, Mary Jane Cain, Wilma Dressel, Margaret Ferris, Sally Jo Lee, Mary Jane Lee, Margaret Hughes, and Bonnie Hansen. FIRST ROW: Ferris. Thompson. Dressel. Cain.

Over the Fence Isn’t Out for These Qirls Working toward another all victorious season the girls’ softball team trained strenuously with the enthusiastic coaching of Miss Helen Wirtenberger. Dorothy Fowler served as the ever capable manager. The season began well with the return of eight letter-girls and 21 other talented players. These hardhitting diamond-burners were successful in games played with Glendale, Kerby, and Rogue River despite the poor field they began practice on. Fewer teams were able to participate in the soft-ball games because of limited transportation. Possibilities look just as bright for next year, as the squad contained only eight graduating seniors, with the rest of the squad probably coming back into the game in 1943. FRONT ROW. Dodge. Hughes.

Co-ed Racketeers Smash It Out On Top Enthusiastically the girls' tennis team strove toward the repetition of the success seen in the five preceding years. With 11 talented racket swingers on the squad, three returning from last year, success appeared very promising. The tennis schedule was limited this year because of transportation difficulties. The team was composed of the five girls who successfully climbed to the top positions in the ladder tournament. Through these games not only was the team chosen but actual game practice was gained. The girls served, smashed, lobbed, and drop-shot skillfully with their new coach, Miss Helen Wirten-berger. Dorothy Fowler again showed her cooperation and capability in managing the co-ed racketeers. KNEELING: Prosser. P. Clark. Ferris. STANDING: Fowler. Norton. Ditty. Lincoln. A. Clark. Bell. Anderson.
