Tabby with La Reata recol¬ lects the memories of the past year. From the ball games to the classroom, from the dances to the library —the good times will be relived again and again as we trot briskly through 1961-1962 with our trusty rope hog-tieing all. The Sequoia Bowl brought out the winning spirit which all our teams display. A Fresno Bee cameraman hurries to get a picture of the action as Dick Juarez snakes his way up field to aid in our win. Our faculty not only helped in the class¬ room, but also helped in student body functions. Miss Perry demonstrates the active part many of our instructors played in putting on these get- togethers. Mr. Bragdon explains lhat she ' ll be going around and around and around in the parade. Queen Robin listens and wonders where are those little white paper bags. Homecoming was only one of the many events to be staged for the student to bring him closer to and to let him play a more active part in Hartnell. Students used their imaginations to add that little extra somethng to many activities this year as experienced by (1-r) Don Roberts, Gay Erickson, Betsy Beazell, Kent Summers, Severo Baggiolini, and Gini Wilson who (un¬ afraid?) walk under a ladder to get into a dance. SOMETHING F 468 rRLSIttKT ASSEMBLY There was never a dull moment and little chance of being uninformed on the happen¬ ings on campus when Hartnell ' s halls were plastered with banners announcing a wide array of activities—something for all. The Philippine students performed native dances at the Inter¬ national Student Assembly which at times held the audience breathless with their intricate movements. Here are (left to right) Delia Estacion, Flordelis Daguio, Editha Luz, and Willie Parcasio. Madrigal singers (far right) join the Choir (left) midway through a performance at Christmastime given at the Salinas Valley Savings-Loan Association. Led by Vahe Aslanian, the Hartnell songsters presented their musical message of Christmas cheer which was broadcast to the downtown district as well as throughout the building. ‘STMJ -.if MfiaKPpJa The Four-College Dance proved to be a big success for the second straight year. The 200 Hartnell students who went helped make it possible by purchasing bids for the gala event. Ellouise Gard was in the middle of her selling spree when Jerry Cole (paying) and Bert Robinson (deciding) were at the cashier ' s window. Mrs. Mable York, Flordelis Daguio, Mr. Edward Lucas, Miss June Handley, Homi Baroumand, Ellouise Gard, and Masie Fong use one corner of the cafeteria to advertise the International Students Christmas party held early in December. There were many varieties of food from many lands. After dinner, entertainment supplied by the students in native cos¬ tumes was thoroughly enjoyed by every¬ one to climax a wonderful evening. The musical sounds transmitted from the Men ' s Gym during the rallies came from our own band. Much of the color of these spirit-raising events could be associated with this wonderful group of musicians. These bandmen also provided a great deal of spirit at home and away games. rfiTJ a- ! FOR ALL Whatever the interest of each student may be. there was an activity for him to participate in. La Reata has pictured them here to prove the wide variety of available activities. John Bernardi heads the train as Student Body President. mm THROUGH 1 The 1962 Hartnell Express ran a long track of unforgettable events — the Christmas Ball, the Prom, the Four-School Dance and numerous activ¬ ities coordinated through this group.. Rallies and assemblies highlighted campus spirit. A fine dis¬ play of student participation and enthusiasm was given as these students represented Hartnell in a favorable way at Regional and State Government Conferences. The engine picks up speed and heads for the roundhouse as Express No. 1962 is safely stored in memories. Engineers (left to right): Lynn Walden. A.M.S.

B THE YEAR Just as an engine needs the tender, the Com¬ mission needs the Inter-Club Council. These two student government groups worked together to fill the calendar with activities to please all. Pooled from the various clubs on campus, the members of I.C.C. made a fine showing of our “natural resources” (the students), as the Home¬ coming Season was successfully planned and executed. As the engine chugs into the round¬ house, the tender follows : No. 1962 comes to the end of the line and No. 1963 prepares to roll. Tendermen are (left to right) Michael Ng, Maris Campbell. Judy Rianda, Wendy Crews. Sonya Swick. Helen Adkins. Joan Dobbins. Barbara Fahey, Elliott Pisor, Bruce Cheney. . . . Steve Burns led the group through the second semester. Peter Strindberg pre¬ sided over the or¬ ganization the first semester and . . . One of the smaller groups on the Hartnell campus is Alpha Gamma Sigma, the honor society. This very select group is composed of students maintaining a 3.0 average in one semester. STANDING, left to right: Alan Terakawa, Claudeen Simoens, Julia Estacion, Ann Terakawa, Elliott Pisor. SEATED: Marilyn Smith and adviser Mr. Johnston. Musically speaking, the Hartnell Music Club was the most note worthy organization of all. Sponsors of a concert series of local talent with two performances by noted musicians, the group took an active part in Hartnell activities. It entered a float in the Homecoming festivities and presented a dance in the fall to pay for a concert series. Gathered around president Kathleen Cline seated at piano are (left to right): adviser Mr. Aslanian, Carol Weigel, Katherine Teves, Lupe Holquin, Jerry Cole, Diane Schmit, Sandy Smith, Pat Stanley, John Cline, Mike Rega, and adviser Mr. McCann. Not pictured was adviser Mr. Lee. TO SHAKE A COMMON INTEREST WITH OTHERS On-campus clubs offer a variety of interests, ideas, and people. Par¬ ticipating students have the opportunity to express themselves with others who share their interests and ideas. During the year the members of the respective clubs have their lighter moments: however, they accomplish many good and worth-while projects. Affiliated with the National Home Economics Association, these Hartnell homemakers perform services to the school as well as to the community—sponsoring the many receptions held on campus as well as donating food to the needy. Also, scholarships are given to the promising young students in homemaking. Shown here pouring soap to stirring food are: Sue Buckingham, Joan Steinbriner, Dee Coder, Judy Rianda, Linda Hicasi, Petra Valady, and Wendy Crews. To help their party win at the polls, these Republi¬ cans, young only in age, shone their political inter¬ ests on campus. Also, to in¬ crease their knowledge of party and politics in gen¬ eral, they brought to Hart¬ nell, speakers such as Assemblyman Alan Pattee and attended the meetings of other Young Republi¬ cans including the State convention at Disneyland. Jack Barrett explains this year ' s strategy to SEATED, left to right: Bruce Cheney, Roy Benson, Kitty Weppen- er, and Bert Robinson. BACK ROW: Adviser Mr. Addison, Joan Caswell, Paul Rauscher and Eugene Fontino. TO LEARN MORE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE f ' wrs TO LAUGH AND TO BE SERIOUS On stage ond off, these students assemble their various talents together in the Drama Club. The members are usually engrossed in the dubious task of bringing laughter and tears to those who attend the professional caliber shows presented at Hartnell College. Members are: Tom Sinclair (kneeling), Carrie Grader (seated), (from left to right) Marcia Robello, Carol Lourentzos. Cathy Corbin. Marianne Sevier. Rudy Draper, Kitty Weppener, Bryana Taylor. One of the largest, most active organizations on campus is the Jazz Club. Barry Robertson (above) gives a brief resume on Dave Bruebeck arrangements as members listen attentively. One of the club ' s annual activities serves to raise money to purchase several record albums to be donated to the Hartnell Library. Moving from the academic to the social life. Jazz Club is also responsible for the formation of the Jazz Combo, a fine instrumental group. FIRST ROW. left to right: Jeff Meeks, Norma Pezzini. John Avizado.

NEW FRIENDS i Education Club members plan to spend many long, enlightening hours in the Hartnell Library as Mrs. Williams, librarian, instructs the club on the vast amount of research material obtainable in one of Hartnell ' s finest additions. From lefto right: Dave Baker, vice ■ president; Paul Reyes, Alexandra Garcia, Sonya Swick, Gloria Lune, Jessie Meza, Doris Davis, Petra Valady, Marilyn Smith, Mrs. Williams. Student today, DaVinci tomorrow! Members devote time to the study of shapes and forms at one of the regular meetings of the Art Club. Drawn together through a mutual interest in art, the members enjoy the social life and benefit from the studies offered by the club. One of Art Club s greatest contributions to education is a scholarship fund which enables two students each year to continue their studies in art. Members are, from left to right: Mr. Bragdon, adviser, Kathy Schwab, Tony Eco, Dennis Youngdahl, James Bundgard, Carolyn Wetmore, Romy Peralta, Larry Bert, Candy Robinson, Mr. Amyx, adviser, John Thompson, Dai Kaikie. TO LEARN ABOUT OTHERS This group of early-rising people who meet at 6:30 a.m., gain much more than an appetizing breakfast. Meeting in the Presbyterian Church, these breakfast club students gain the courage to face a rough day at Hartnell. LEFT TO RIGHT: Miss Leah Landerus (official cook). Bruce Bakeman, Colly McHenry, John Schwellenbach, Mrs. Wiley, Bruce Chiney, Rev. Wiley (guest speaker), Roger Patterson, Bryana Taylor, Sonya Swick, Steve Burns, Nancy Miller, Russ Kellum, Carol Weigel. Future businessmen and businesswomen get together often to learn the new machines and other office equip¬ ment. The Business Club offers many opportunities for the future leaders to compare ideas in the field.

Having a regular fireside chat ' sophomore class officers Elliott Pisor, president; Claudeen Simoens, secretary; Sue Buckingham, treasurer; and vice president Steve Burns discuss the many activities during the year that might appeal to their class¬ mates—the whole gamut from dances to talent shows. The officers then put these ideas into action. Cabrillo challenged Hartnell to a chess tournament and overnight a club was formed for the purpose of checkmating the Seahawks on the board. As it turned out—our best blanked their best, five to nothing. The Hartnell prime movers have now turned to the business of developing their own games with help from adviser Dr. Bedford, seen here demonstrating a good opening. FIRST ROW. left to right: Bill Bender, Tom Jaquetre, Sammy Taporca, Richard Armstrong. SECOND ROW: Mike Nielsen, Richard Weymouth, Jon Paauwe, Larry Carlsen, Bob Stevens and Bill Harrison. Large in number and large in purpose, Jhe CHINESE CLUB aims to bring a meeting of East and West for increased understanding and to promote a free exchange of cultural ideas between the two hemispheres.

FOR THE DEVELOPMENT 0 With the purpose of unifying the FRESHMAN CLASS the officers, Joyce Hollaway. frosh representative; Art Renney, treasurer; Mary Lambert, vice president; Doug Edwards, pres¬ ident; and Barbara Fahey, I.C.C. represent¬ ative, discussed the $ucce$$ful live band dance they sponsored and the possibility of having a freshman talent show toward the end of the year. 14 The most active club on campus was the INTERNATIONAL CLUB. Members not only learned about many new countries and their customs, but also made many new friends. Everyone here was looking at Mrs. Finney as she ejected a student carrying anti-Goldwater slogans.

Helen Adkins, I.C.C. representative; Sylvia Plasket, sec¬ retary-treasurer; Claudeen Simoens, vice president, and Patsy Vaught, president, led the women on cam¬ pus to a very productive year as ol ' Santa played to a packed house in the annual A.W.S.-sponsored Christmas assembly. Added to the staff in the second half of the year were Gary Meimar and Barbara Fahey. Both newcomers displayed their talents throughout the paper and helphd a great deal in securing a more accur ate as well as a more representative school paper. Hartnell ' s newspaper Pan¬ ther Sentinel had a reward¬ ing year. It started with a jour¬ nalism conference in Monterey. Three of the Sentinel members walked away with four awards, tops for the confer¬ ence. Another conference was held in Sacramento this spring with four members represent¬ ing Hartnell in the news de¬ partment. In that competition, staffer Lee Simondet won first prize in feature writing. Fall semester editor was Jerry Adamson, top left; he turned the reins over to Ron Bottini, bottom, at the end of the se¬ mester. The paper received top ‘ngs at the end of the year. Discussing the fundamentals of a newspaper is no easy job as the first semester group found out, especially in front of the student union juke box. Headline writing, captions, and make-up are all part of the never-ending task of putting out a paper. Grouped around table are: Steve Blumenthal, Jerry Townsend. Fran Parks, Ron Bottini, Celia Pedroza. Larry Heer, and Lee Simondet. Standing in back are Mr. Johnson, adviser, and Pat Stanley. A brief moment of rest is enjoyed by some of the class mem¬ bers. Going over papers from neighboring schools are Bar¬ bara Fahey. Ron Bottini, and Pat Stanley. m )MADE AVAILABLE TOMORROW Working on La Reata during the first semester proved to be a diffi¬ cult task. Learning the techniques of laying out the pages, setting up pictures, and writing captions were only part of the race against time to put out a good and well-repre¬ sented yearbook. LEFT TO RIGHT: Mr. Paul Johnson, adviser; Valerie Barlow, ZoeAnn Hill, Joe Rossi, Diane Hubbard, Jerry Adamson, and Glenn Graves. This year ' s yearbook class started with one person, the editor, then progressed until it reached seven for the fall semester. The second semester had a complete turnover in staff members; three newcomers joined. A total of ten people had a hand in laying out this year ' s book. Editor for the year was Paul Rauscher, top right, who spent many hours working to achieve a high- standard book. Added to the staff in the second semester are (left to right) John Thompson, Don Roberts, and Maris Campbell. These students found working on the yearbook was no easy job, but they made the effort and discovered the key to the past was through La Reata. Sitting on her old couch, Agatha Reed, Barbara Weppen- er, discusses old times with Prof. Birdeshaw, Carrie Grader, as the honor guard of senior girls, and two associate professors look on with happiness. Claude Griswold, Gary Meimar, caught by his slightly high wife Ellen, Dorothy Harris, is urged to let his hair down and be merry.

They take their revenge by assailing him with feet and fists.

Already embittered by Cassio ' s promotion to lieutenant, Iago becomes suspicious of the attention given to his wife, Emilia, by Cassio. Roderigo, looking on, finds nothing amiss in Cassio ' s actions. In Cyprus, Iago works his scheme of destruction, bringing about the deaths of Othello, Desdemona, and Emelia. 1 mj! h m ry . ; v 1 Before each performance, those who will be before the audience and those who will be behind the scenes are kept busy with many things other than the learning of lines and cues. In order for the show to go on, sets must be built, costumes must be made, and make-up must be applied. For many, there is still plenty of work backstage even as the play is being given. A variety of talents are necessary to the fine perform¬ ances which are enjoyed by the college and community all year round. Grease paint, shadows, eyebrow pencil, the tools of an actor. Left to right, Tom Sinclair, Bill Cameron, Gary Lavelle, Gary Meimar, Frank Jewhurst apply the finishing touches.

FROM SALLIES TO CONCESTIFI After many sharp half-time shows, the Band ended the football season with fine performances in the Homecoming Parade and at the Sequoia Bowl. The Band ' s activities during the spring semester included on-campus noon concerts, visits to local high schools, the Hartnell commencement ceremonies. MAJORETTE: Sandy Twisselman.

Performing a wide variety of music and taking part in a wide range of activities, versa¬ tile Hartnell musicians enlivened and enriched community life. On the football field lively marches and pep songs were, together with snappy half-time shows, an important part of the gridiron activities. Dixieland and several other styles of jazz emanated from the Pep Band and the Dance Band, and from the String Ensemble and the Symphonic Band came the sounds of Broadway, Bach, and Beethoven. Music for every taste was available on the Hartnell campus, and musicians and listeners alike enjoyed many pleasant and inspiring hours at rallies, games, assemblies, and con¬ certs. MR. LORELL McCANN Several spirited members of the Band added color to home basketball games as they participated in the lively Hartnell PEP BAND.

Russia, America and the World was the subject of Louis Fischer ' s lecture in Sep¬ tember which brought an over¬ flowing crowd to the library to launch the Hartnell Pre¬ sents series for its third year. The journalist reported on con¬ ditions he found in the red empire during a recent visit as a comparison to conditions during the 1920 ' s and later when he spent 14 years in Moscow reporting the scene to the American people. Listening to Fischer are Dr. Braverman and Dr. Ching while a tape recorder in the foreground transcribes the talk for a later student session. Stimulated students—part of the value of the Hartnell Presents events was the invigoration of ideas and discussion of disputes on campus. Author-journalist Robert St. John, for example, came to campus in October to speak on Explosive Africa, a subject he had studied at firsthand after a recent tour of several countries there. His report of fearful conditions in the new nations and colonies instigated a discussion as seen above led by Elliott Pisor, coordinator, and including (left to right) Helen Adkins, Steve Burns, Judy Rianda, Pisor, Marcia Mammen, Barbara Fahey and Pat Kelly. COMMUNITY COLLEGE CULTURE CENTER Crowds grew in size and enthusiasm— finding the lecture topics topical and in¬ formative. Here an audience of nearly 500 listen intently as journalist Louis Fischer speaks from firsthand experience on The Russian Problem. A sober discussion of the world s atomic struggle was presented by nuclear physicist Ralph Lapp speaking about The Challenge to Man. Before his address Dr. Lapp (second from right) visited with students Stanley Soroken, Sandy Ciucci and Kert Davis as well as in¬ structor Gerald Holmes and Dr. Ching. Literary research came to the campus in the per¬ son of Dr. Mark Schorer, head of the English De¬ partment, University of California at Berkeley, when he spoke in the library on Three Men: Anderson, Fitzgerald, Hemingway. The writer and critic, author of Sinclair Lewis, An American Life, discussed his research with Hartnell English department head Randall Decker before the lecture. Hartnell realized more fully her role as a com¬ munity college this year by becoming even more of a center of culture as well as an educational institu¬ tion. In its third year of the Hartnell Presents lecture series, some of the problems, the culture and the entertainment of the world were brought to Salinas by educators, journalists, actors and artists. The audiences demonstrated that citizens of the area enjoyed the presentations and recognized the col¬ lege’s contributions. MEETING OF THE MINES In the main lounge of the Student Union the minds of both students and faculty were brought together for the purpose of discuss¬ ing interesting topics which would offer many sides. Here students and faculty could express their views and possibly find a com¬ mon ground. To lead off the 1961-62 version of the Student-Faculty Discussions. Dr. Ching introduces the topic. What Makes a College? To his left are Dr. Feder. the brain trust of these gatherings; Elliott Pisor, his student counterpart; and Mrs. lanet Abbot, a regular at these meetings. An entertaining as well as informative discus¬ sion on Mathematics Without Tears was pre¬ sented by Math Instructor Mr. Dan Coulter. Here he demonstrated the Roman Numeral Sys¬ tem and math magic in a manner which de¬ lighted students and faculty. It was plain to see (left to right) Lee Simon- det, John Thompson, Richard Weymouth and John Michel had engaged their brains to grasp the trend of thought to retort with an honest student opinion at the discussions. Bringing out the facts about the day ' s subject What Sense: Modem Art? is Mr. Amyx who explains what part modem art plays in our society, and what are its effects upon us. HARD WORK GETS REWARDS “Hitch your wagon to a star.” That s exactly what many of Hartnell’s students have done. They have worked hard for these awards. This year the fruits of their labor were realized. Italian in heritage, but American in citizenship, John Bernardi received his naturalization papers from Judge Anthony Brazil in September. The A.S.B. president came from Lucca, Italy, to Castroville when still a young boy. Here he grew and adopted the ways of his new culture until today he sounds, thinks, and promotes like a native. Musical talent by no means passed unnoticed this year on campus. As Dr. Ching looked on, Kitty Teves and Barry Robertson received musical scholarships of $100 from Ronald Howe, who represented the Hartnell Community Chorus Best darn junior college feature writer in the state. as proven at the March journalism conference in Sac¬ ramento. Lee Simondet humbly ac¬ cepts the first-place trophy from Reed Nessel, vice president of the Journal¬ ism Association of Junior Colleges. Just think, he is all ours too! The most-traveled student on campus was Ron Bottini, spring editor of the Sentinel. Here h e was just leaving for New York and a journalism con¬ ference for 200 editors of college newspapers. Later in the spring he headed the delegation to the state journalism fete at Sacramento. Final¬ ly, he attended the state student gov¬ ernment convention in Los Angeles. In all he has traveled over 7,000 miles—That ' s going places! —. — 9 . Organize, prepare, attack!—the bat¬ tle cry of the ASSOCIATED WOMEN STUDENTS. Together they plunged ever onward, always one step ahead of man and two steps behind logic. Hart¬ nell’s women had but one goal — equality. With strategy and teamwork, these women officers lead their followers onward. SEATED, left to right: Patsy Plaskett and Helen Adkins. STANDING: Bev¬ erly Judy Rianda, Sylvia Plaskett, Patsy Vaught, president; and Claudeen Simoens. One of A.W.S. ' s more applaudable, cultural, and enjoyable feats was the Christmas As¬ sembly with Chcir, Madrigals, String Ensem¬ ble, and St. Nick. Chalk up another victory for the gentler sex. THE BATTLE OF TEE SEXES It began with the beginning of man. Since that time, he has had to be cun- ning, clever, and daring to outwit wom¬ en. There was no exception on this campus either The ASSOCIATED MEN STUDENTS’ organization repre¬ sented that downtrodden, domesticated male gender, and in all its endeavors strived for justice. Youth and experience conspire to achieve an undeniable male conquest. The display of brute strength and physical force in the pre¬ tence of the annual Men ' s Field Day was carefully plotted by Lynn Walden, president, and Mr. Regli, adviser. DORM HEW FOE ' 62 The Board of Trustees, with the help of the administration, pro¬ duced the first stage of an eventual three-unit dormitory system _two homes for men and one for women. The low-cost housing diminishes the problems for students outside the Salinas area. With its comfortable beginnings, Hartnell ' s housing sets the pace for other junior colleges in the state.

LEFT TO RIGHT: Diane Hubbard, Norma Kerns, Sherri Miller, Joan Caswell, Valerie Barlow, and Linda Walker. TBE CREW WITHOUT A BOO We really did have a tab by, see! But, by being shy and retiring this TOM com¬ mitted a SIN. Well, I deCLAIR! Spirit and enthusiasm were brought in flight by our peppy yell leaders and airborne pompon girls. The “cheers” leaped into a “Ra - Ra - Ooh”; the chicks performed to a “La - de - la - de - doo” and Tabby made his debut! The Yell Leaders: Harold Denny, Paul Rauscher, Head Yell Leader, and Elliot Pisor soared into leaps and bounds and led cheers for our spirited student body. • ' JS ' - Cocaptains Ted Schmidt and Gary Quattrin said See you all at the game, and the students kept the promise. Men’s Gym provided the setting for most of the rooting rallies and the entertaining assemblies held on campus. Under direction of Gary Wilcox, the student body watched a wide variety of shows which they well appreciated. ' ■ The coach at the rally explains what to look for in a game plus giving insights into the team. Coach John Skip Schwellenbach has Just performed this duty at a football pep session. His message brought varied re¬ sponses from students present. LIFTED SPIRIT! D To bring variety to campus life, this rally was presented in the student union. It was so packed that many students were forced to sit on the roof to participate and enjoy the festivities. WHERE The Phil Sun Quintet made up mostly of Hartnell alumni— Phil Sun, vibes; Sonny Borja, bass; Ron Critchfield, Phil Ben, guitar; and Tom Whitney, congo drum, along with The Guys Three—Rudy Maglenty, Gary Wilcox, and Ellis (Buddy) Wheeler—who displayed their talents before an enthusiastic group of students during one of the spring assemblies. Here they worked together in the presentation of Bermuda which brought the house down. One of the most thrilling performances was presented by Mr. Dee lay Hunter in a exhibition of falconry. Here, with his wife, he hol ds the world ' s champion trained hunting eagle. The wingspread is six feet with claws two inches long. What a bird! President John Bernardi M.C.ed many of our assem¬ blies this past year as in this one where candidates for the A.S.B. offices were presented to the student body in the fall. Our campus was indeed fortunate to have students from other lands present their talents to be enjoyed by all. Here a group of Chinese students brought to Hartnell some of the songs of their native land.

HIGH, ALSO FLAGS SHOWS LIE 35 HOMECOMING BROUGHT FUN AND GLAMOR TO FOOTBALL SEASON I ft % Even though the Newman club did not win fir?t prize for their float, the members still had a lot of fun preparing their entry. In charge of putting on the final touches are Betty Jo Brooks, Francesca Parks. Sam Lo Bue. Barbara Greer, and Sharon Frudden. As the full impact of Homecoming nears, all 14 candidates wonder which one of them will be chosen as one of the five finalists and as the 1961 Homecoming Queen. The beauties waiting for the all-important announcement are (front) Joanne Kelly, Linda Walker, Sylvia Plaskett, Sandy Salmina, Sally Hillman, Sue Buckingham, Carrie Grader.

Accustomed to guiding students at Hartnell, Miss Handley starts young with sceptre-bearer Sally Rhodes and crown-bearer Tommy Coulter as she guides them down the long path to the Queen ' s throne. Homecoming of Agatha Reed to her old school in the play Good By, My Fancy. was dedicated to Hartnell ' s Homecoming. During the intermission. Queen Robin Hildner, center, and her attendants (1-r) Sandy Salmina, Peggy Seadler, Rosita Anselmi were announced to the audience, after which they sat down with their escorts and enjoyed the rest of the performance. The Queen and her court enjoyed a busy reign after the suspense of the Crowning assembly that Friday. The activities? An Alumni Dinner, the excitement of a parade down Main Street, the thrills of a close contest on the gridiron and a climaxing dance to smooth away some of the pain of the Panther defeat. l Last year ' s freshman class won the first prize for Its Pep float and as Sophomores they did it again. On the float are: Hartnell ' s cheerleaders, Elliot Pisor, Herold Denny; Pompon Girls, Diane Hubbard, Norma Kerns, Sherry Miller, Valerie Barlow; two of Hartnell ' s foot¬ ball players, Dick Juarez, Jim McGuire, and three of Foothill ' s Pompon Girls whose names will remain anonymous for obvious reasons. Spotting the Owls two touchdowns, our Harts fought back in the second half, being inspired by the fans forming the rooters ' lane (used in every game this year, started at last year ' s Foothill game) only to lose a heartbreaker 21-20. The first dance of the evening was dedicated to Queen Robin Hildner and escort Prince Joe Munoz as they danced the night away to Jerry Hill ' s Combo. Shortly thereafter, Hartnell Students and Alumni joined in to climax the fun-filled and glamorous Homecoming week. The hubbub of campus life is the Student Union.

Tote that barge, lift that bale, and wash that cup —the battle cry of the cafeteria dishwashers. Charlie Crawford will have something when he leaves Hartnell ' s hallowed halls—dishpan hands. Elliott Pisor; Ellouise Gard, Kim Pisor, and Claudeen Simoens were busy at work pre¬ paring the decorations for the Christmas Ball. Wonder whatever happened to all that mistle¬ toe that never quite made it to the dance? Be sociable, have some punch. As Gary Wil¬ cox filled some cups with funny looking red liquid, he and everyone else wondered just what kind of concoction it was this time. Butch Ketchum holds up a gift from Santa for being a good boy all year . Are you in the crowd looking at him? Whatever the sport on campus, there was a cer¬ tain spirit that prevailed during this year as well as in all years past. Whether our Harts won or not, they didn’t lose that “spree de corps” which was essential for the team to endure the season. Coach Smith, Tim Ragsdale, and Jim Ross plan the strategy for the day—we will win! Keeping spirits u,p was hard, but our bas- keteers did and came up with a big win in the last game of the season against Cabrillo. Here they played a real good game against arch rival, M.P.C. Jerry Janoski, the most underrated back on the team, with the help of a key block turned the corner to pick up 23 yards against Menlo. Gary Brooks faked out a San Jose City College end to run up another first-and-ten. Could they be looking for a contact lens or fighting over the ball? Anyway, Monte Bohn, Howard Utterback, and Wayne Mosher were in the thick of it. Jeff Meeks, arms back and toes up, was ready .as our swimming team participated in its first year of conference competition. The women on campus also made their bid for fame. Marie Sherriff got off a jump shot against the Ordettes as a warmup for a victory over M.P.C. THEY BITE THE FLAYS SHOW THE WAY, AND HOPE These masterminds of the game put their heads together to mold the many individual players into a single working unit with the main objective—to go out and win. This year their work paid off with seven vic¬ tories to their ' credit. i ARVIN SMITH Head Coach ; ‘ J- SKIP SCHWELLENBACH Backfield Coach BILL WHITED Volunteer Coach HERE IS THE UNIT Both below and on the following page are individual players who were molded into a unit.

OFFENSE FILES UP THE POINTS Scoring 259 points during the season, our offensive squad racked up an aver¬ age of 28.7 points per game. Unfortu¬ nately the Panthers were short of points towards the latter part of the season. But they came back strong to defeat Santa Barbara in the Sequoia Bowl at Sanger. Hustling Henry Kalama shows some all-American form as he breaks through the Menlo line, starts a thundering gallop toward the goal.

Congratulations to all the team members who went all out with one thing in mind—to bring home a Victory. Although lacking a few key players the team had a good attitude, and with that it went out and literally ran Santa Barbara into the ground with a very impressive score of 20-6. Dave Markoe smothers a helpless Santa Barbara player as Jim McGuire falls on top of them, just in case. Shaking off another Santa Barbara play¬ er, Jerry Janoski is off again for a siz¬ able amount of yardage. m ■V Six points for us as Ralph Murra makes the first touchdown against Santa Bar¬ bara. Making this beautiful catch in the end zone was just the beginning for Ralph and the entire team. A key block helped to get quarterback Gary Brooks on his way to T.D. land in the second quarter. TEST SAID IT COULDN ' T BE DONE EUT WE WON!! 47 BASKETBALL TEAM IN REBUILDING STAGE The Hartnell Panthers slumped far below their 1960-61 per¬ formance by winning only a single conference game this season. In the rebuilding year, Coach “Barney” Muldoon opened the season with seventeen candidates, but with only two lettermen. As the season progressed, the team lost some close games, includ¬ ing the 64-59 setback to the second-place Vallejo Falcons. From the opening-day seventeen hoopsters, the final days had only eight players on the hardwood. From left to right: Wayne Mosher, Jim Johansen, Ron Deetx, Steve Burns, Howard Utter back, Don Mc- Abery, Monte Bohn. Missing from the picture is Ralph Murra. 56 51 vs. Foothill. 76 vs. Cabrillo. 40 Hartnell Opponent 60 vs. San Jose C.C. 88 42 vs. Menlo. 65 59 vs. Vallejo. 64 47 vs. Diablo Valley .... 66 51 vs. Cabrillo. 57 72 vs. Foothill. 78 48 vs. M.P.C. 60 61 vs. San Jose C.C. 93 66 vs. M.P.C. 81 45 vs. Menlo. 71 55 vs. Diablo Valley.... 76 54 vs. Vallejo. 63 Listening attentively the players receive the benefit of Coach Muldoon ' s many years of coaching experience. On hand during the half is Trainer Dan Diedrickson (left) who eases the anguish of the physical problems of the squad. SUFFERS LOSING SEASON Doing the ballet? It appears that way but actually the unidentiled San Jose City College player has just been caught off balance after trying for a field goal. In posi¬ tion for the rebound is Steve Burns (42), while Monte Bohn tries in vain to block the shot. San Jose went on to win the game and the coast conference championship Don McAbery scores a valuable field goal, but Foothill chalks up the victory 78-72 in Hartnell ' s highest scoring effort. Waiting to assist Don is Monte Bohn (21) under the basket. The Menlo Oaks proved to be too tough to chop down as Monte Bohn found out. Jockeying for favorable posi tion under the boards, the Menlo 5 dominated the play and the game 65-42. v- Future major leaguers joined the diamondmen at Hartnell this year to make the Panthers a tough hurdle to overcome for flag contenders. Coach Jess Regli’s crew rolled over its first opponent three out of four attempts. Conference games were postponed because of rain at the beginning of the season, but the team remained in great shape and rolled over its first major nonconference opponent, Moffett Field. Regli picked Mike Griffin as the best individual with big-league potential. Pitcher Mike helped the team become a still taller hurdle by hurling like a pro. Almost an out as pitcher Mike Griffin watched first-bagger Jim Harris put on the tag — a little late. This one got away while an anxious catcher, Blair Milner, waited for a ball from the outfield. , ij, , MM. iu,i Howard Utterback and catcher Vic Quat- trin spent long hours in practice to sharpen up their individual talents to better help the team. HORSEHIDERS WERE TOUGH TO START SEASON ■: . - i l m v .5 ' .r Hartnell’s track and field team enjoyed one of its most productive seasons in a long time. Although the opening meet with MPC was lost 65-64, the Panthers improved rapid¬ ly throughout the remainder of the season. The new rubberized track at Foothill College provided the site for the Coast Conference Relays. Finding it to their liking Bill Huston and A1 Smith broke two Hartnell school rec¬ ords. Huston’s mark of 14 ' easily erased the old record of 13 ' 10 in the pole vault. Smith ran a sizzling :49.4 in the 440, but the time was not official for a school record because it was made in a relay. Much of the team’s inspiration came from Huston, Har- len Butler, and Mike Parks. Their hustle and determination did much to boost the morale of the squad. Coach Ed Adams explains the techniques of winning a track meet to the Panther spikers. The advice paid off for many of the spring sport candidates. FRONT ROW. left to right: Steve Burns, high jump; Bill Burton, 880; A1 Smith, 100, 220, 440, relay; Larry Dell Bitta, discus, shot put; Kent summers, mile, 2-mile; Ron Clinton, high jump; Coach Ed Adams. BACK ROW: Lee Frudden, 440, relay; Leon Wood, manager. Leadoff man Lee Frudden looks over the opposition before starting on the mile relay. Hartnell beat Monterey in the opening season meet in this relay, but lost to the Lobos and the Owls from Foothill in this four-way meet which also included Vallejo. A few minutes of rest is enjoyed by the Panthers before going all out in a meet. TOP ROW: Dave Guardino. 880, 2-mile. SECOND ROW: left to right: Larry Steffen, mile, 2-mile; Mike Parks, 440, relay; Wayne Davis. 880. mile; Dave Hansen, hurdles, 440. BOTTOM ROW: Jerry Adamson, hurdles; Har- len Butler, pole vault; Bill Huston, pole vault. Soaring through the air to give rival schools tough com¬ petition in the broad jump is A1 Smith. One of Hartnell ' s most versatile ath¬ letes, A1 earned more than his share of the points for the Panthers. is ESTABLISH 1 IN TRACK Perfecting the handoff is the most important thing in the 880 relay. Lee Frudden successfully completes the passing of the baton to Ray Gillette. The Conference relays were tough, but Hartnell ' s relay teams stayed up among the leaders in each race. Bill Harrison demonstrates his winning form in the dis¬ cus. Also heaving the shot makes Bill a big man on the team. A Hart nell fan in the background stares in wonder at the distance obtained in practice by Harrison. k Steve Burns goes high to clear six feet in the high jump. Steve was a consistent jumper throughout the season as well as in his freshman year at Hartnell. Anything under six was a letdown for this determined track star. Distance runner Kent Summers provided many of the points for the Panthers in the two-mile run. Also a top cross-country runner, Kent became a standout on the track team. Running with Foothill. Vallejo, and M.P.C. proved to be challenging, and Kent came through with a third place in this meet. Running the race may take the most effort but before the race is where the tension runs the highest. Starting on their seemingly endless three-mile journey are: (14) Lee Frudden, (13) Mike Parks, (in back) Mike Weber, (16) Larry Steffens, (in back) Paul Bergantz, (25) Frank Baker, (24) Adrian Avila, and (7) Kent Summers. CROSS-COUNTRY RUNNERS jmrnt. Before the race begins is a good time to relax and take things easy. When the race starts these men will become blurs. Seen before the action are: Leon Wood, Mike Weber, Paul Bergantz, David Hansen, Dave Guardino, Mike Parks, and Kent Summers. Two of the team ' s outstanding runners are Mike Parks and Kent Summers. Both men proved to be valuable assets to the team by constantly running to keep in shape. One of the enduring track stars on the cross-country team is Larry Steffens. Carefully checking over his equipment before entering the race helps to eliminate every possible chance of misfortune prevent¬ ing him from competing. ENJOY PROSPEROUS SEASON Enjoying another successful season. Coach Adams’ men made their mark in the conference by virtue of a second-place finish in conference standings. Kent Summers and Adrian Avila went as far as the Northern California State Finals. HAND OUT FOE RACQUETEEHS BEET Tennis coach Darwin Peavy hit it rich this spring as he fielded a rout team that had other conference teams hanging on the nets. Starting with two veterans from last year’s squad (Jack Barrett and Bruce Bakeman), Coach Peavy formed a formidable group with David Schmickrath in top spot and Rudy Perez pushing him. In early season match swept easily all teams except Vallejo. the squad Jack Barrett just returned a high lob with a well-placed shot to the left- hand comer. Coach Darwin Peavy kept an eye peeled for mis¬ takes so he could correct them before they became undesirable habits. Aman Kermaninejad wait¬ ed for the serve to try to produce a win for the Harts. David Schmickrath smiled be cause he was ahead at this point 5-0. Joe Moag showed the deter¬ mination which has made him one of our best netmen. As the ball got by him, Bruce Bakeman hoped Coach Peavy wasn ' t look¬ ing his way. THEY BID WITS CLUBS Ion Paauwe concentrated on his form this match to better help the team as well as himself. Rain and wet ground hampered their prac¬ tice, but the golfers eventually had the best deal as they played their home matches on the hilly Corral de Ti- erra course. The team remained a preseason enigma because it in¬ cluded only one vet¬ eran — Jon Paauwe. Coach Arvin Smith tabbed Jim Ross as top clubman and Ragsdale as a good bet; other team mem¬ bers were untested in competition. Tim Ragsdale ' s follow- through helped him in overcoming many of his golfing opponents. Marshall Connell used a nine iron to chip onto the green for an easy par three. Paul Bergantz demonstrated the proper putting form that made him a terror on the greens. Coach Arvin Smith looked over and got the feel of a new driver which would help his goll game. Jim Ross sharpened up his putting eye after one golf match to immortalize the old adage practice makes perfect. ‘Ik 56 Jose Nunez jumps to spike ball during the intermural vol¬ leyball tournament.

HARTNELL ' S BIG TEAR Making its big debut as a sport on campus, the Hartnell swimming team sported ten prospective watermen. Un¬ der Coaches Dorothy Middaugh and John Schwellenbach the mermen have shown great potential. They have set a precedent with hopes that Hartnell will have even stronger teams in future com¬ petition. SPLASH THIS Nil AM Jeff Meeks, Edward Anderson, Greg Kaften, Jim Peifer, Mike Mohajar, Dean Willingham, Robert Paul. Maria Marquez, and (not pictured) David Schmickrath and Tom Thompson were ready to make the big plunge into conference competition. Hartnell ' s Jim Peifer dove right in to help bring home another first in the 400-yard medley relay while a Cabrillo man waits for his teammate to come back. Mario Marquez applied his talents from the one-meter board to bring in the points at the water meets. It was an even start with Greg Hafen and opponent (notice hand). However, at the end of the race it was a different story. We did not always win, but we were there splashing away. EVENTS IN SPOUTS Hartnell outdid herself this year in coming up with thrilling moments in sports—from football to track, records were broken and teams upset. Diablo Valley was rated number one in the nation before we played them. The game was close all the way until Henry Kalama broke their backs with this 70-yard touch¬ down jaunt. During the Menlo game, Dick Juarez was angered at being tackled by a Menlo man who came off the bench when Dick had a sure T.D. Later Dick ran back this 75-yard punt return to put the game on ice. Monte Bohn led Hartnell in an upset win over Cabrillo to end a not-so-good season with a sweet The bar was at 14 ' l A” when Bill Huston cleared victory. He was laying up the ball for another it and shattered the old school record. That was two points in this shot. quite a FEET! MAKE Uf 01 Hartnell enjoyed a wide range of students coming for a variety of goals. Sister Esperanza and Sister Angelines of the Immaculate Con¬ ception order soon hope to be teachers. Hartnell provided a stepping stone for these two as well as the 1.200 others in quest of knowledge. STUDENT Bl Once again the Sophomores pulled the wool over the Freshmen where Donna Raines and Kitty Wilson got away with a $6.58 purchase for only a dollar. Poor Mary Lambert seems confused — so are most Freshmen! Kent Karp. Pat Coelho. Kathy Mezerkor, Jim Telfer. Don Teeters, Ruth Leavitt, Mike Dixon, and Jane Taylor took time out from an aftergame dance to sit back and enjoy conversing with one another. Whether Freshman or Sopho¬ more, there was an informal atmosphere with no class dis¬ tinction. Sophomore Vic Quattrin related words of wis¬ dom to Freshman Bill Neufeld so he would be eligible for football next fall. The students from afar—(left to right) Jim Aghenli, Kai-tuen Woo, Jim Basij, and Bolandi Essi—were no different when it comes to the ad¬ miration of beauty. What else would bring such a stare? The college campus holds many peo¬ ple seeking different goals—the student to learn and the instructor to teach. Hartnell was no different this year as the lariat brought them all together. Math instructor Dan Coulter watched a demonstra¬ tion of the Fourier Series—expansion of functions by electronic circuitry—an equipment set up by electronics instructor Dennis Nelson. Soon after, an advanced calculus class profited from the demon¬ stration. Instructor Joe Bragdon got his idea across about the proper use of the charcoal pencil on paper as this group of art hopefuls make sure they don ' t miss a single point. WWW cCrr One of the most enduring classes at night was drama. After students young and not so young landed their parts they participated in rehearsals from 7-10 Monday through Thurs¬ day for many weeks. Karen Wilson and Con¬ stance Sauret were trying out for a part in “Othello with several hopefuls watching. r Y SAFARIS OTTO HEW REALMS Adventure soon awaits the sophomores of 1961-62. They are stocking up on the necessities of such a safari whether to a four-year college or university, to the business world, or to keep the home fires burning. The satisfactions of this trek are the fulfillment of lifelong dreams and happiness that comes with full life.

From the near-by cities, from the 50 states, from the na¬ tions of the world, come the book- burdened Hartnell bookworms. A plane is in order for these students that have gathered from the four comers of the globe. From left to right. Aman Kermaninejad, Kwok-Chiu Wong. Majid Akbarzadeh, Nasser Tafazzoli, Rahmat Zandian, Ruth Yeung. Djamchid Aghevli, Maranda Lee, Homi Baroumand. WORLD lust a bus ride south will take these students home. From left to right John Cline. Kent Summers (bus), Dave Kuchta, Steve Burns. Marilyn Leavitt. Arturo Garcia. SMALL You might take a bus. but you best take a train — these students trekked across the states to enter Hartnell ' s hallowed halls. From lef to right, Rolland Thom (Annapolis, Mary¬ land), Danny Del Porto (Yerington, Nevada), Dorothy Thomas (Rapid City, South Dakota), Steve Menesini (Yerington, Nevada). IN ACTION The Commission, feeling many stu¬ dents were not fully acquainted with the issue, called a General Assem¬ bly to debate both sides. Elliott Pisor (above) asks Wayne Barlow to clarify the suggested rebate plan. Students gathered at the podium to further question the many debated points. Miss Handley (center) attempts to point out a major error in calculating the Bookstore profits from the estimated Associated Student Body income. In its final stage the pro¬ posal was placed on the ballot and put directly be¬ fore the student body for a final, decisive vote. Although defeat was the end result, the prin¬ ciple involved was of a more important nature— “freedo m of speech, freedom of the press and the right to peaceably assemble.” It was positive proof of an interest in student government. But perhaps most important, the incident gave all a chance to see democracy in action. The Bookstore Battle created a great deal of discussion late in the fall semester. A peti¬ tion was circulated on campus to minimize profit (from the Bookstore) thus returning the profits direct to the customers. Wayne Bar- low, author of the petition, acquired the neces¬ sary 125 qualified signatures and then went before the Student Commission where he presented the document. DEMOCRACY 78 DRINKING FROM THE FOUNTAIN OF KNOWLEDGE STUDENTS SEEK AND REAP Hartnell was like a water fountain in the desert between high school and upper di¬ vision college or the business world. Here students could quench their thirst for knowl¬ edge during a relatively short stay. If any student has trouble in speaking before groups of people, he has the opportunity here in Speech 1A to correct this difficulty under the watch¬ ful eye and sensitive ear of Mr. Hal Ulrici. Mr. Swick led the way in his class as Mr. Ulrici, Sonya Swick. Robin Hildner, and Marcia Mammen, among others, look on or read over notes. As Barbara Logue speaks on a composer in Music Appreciation, FIRST ROW, left to right: Manoocher Pourmanafzadeh, Manoocher Livian. Leo Briggs. Charlie Peters; SECOND ROW: Suzan Granger. Mr. McCann, Virginia Wilson. David Kroll. Leslie Breschini, and Vernon Miller listen to what she has to say and also to the music of the composer to gain a better appreciation of good” music. Junior Frank Lloyd Wrights, Don Jones, Johnny Simmons, and Artie Anderson decide which type of house to design in Mr. Bullis ' Resi¬ dences 46-B. These budding young artists as a part of basic fundamentals in Leon Amyx ' s Watercolor class, painted a portion of nature ' s handiwork on the Hartnell campus. LEFT TO RIGHT: Judy Cooper, Dai Kaikie, Carolyn Wetmore, who was just watching, Kathy Schwab, Dan Cisneros, and John Thompson. Just finished with Othellb, Hal Ulrici ' s Stagecraft class prepared to create another masterpiece in cardboard and paint — this time for The Happiest Millionaire, which was presented in May. Clockwise from Mr. U was Audrey Boutte, Tom Sinclair, Sherry Myers, Noel Wilson. Madeline Olvera, Ron Bottini, and Gary Meimar. mi If it fizzles, run for cover! was the motto of future chemists Don Malnati and Hoon Yin Ho. Here in Chemistry IB these students applied their knowledge of chemistry to solve practical problems. The L.V.N. class has just started once again in the spring semester producing qualified nurses to fill the many gaps in nursing that are plaguing many U.S. hospitals. Mrs. Ayres (center) demon¬ strated proper bedside techniques as (left to right) Barbara Sharer, Willie Parcasio, Martha Munoz, Mrs. Helem Ricky, Mrs. Marie Pihl (patient), Mrs. Nan Davis (patient), Mrs. Avanell Jensen, Mrs. Jana Rohlicek, Mary Vasquez, Vicky Migue l, and Mrs. Helene Young watched intently. Creating worth-while masterpieces from worthless wood were Jean Daguio and Tony Eco. They developed their talents in art through long hours in the class¬ room under the direction ' of Mr. Bragdon, art instructor. 9ta iW ‘ ! STUDENTS WORK WU I TO OET AREA l Visitors are always wel¬ come on the east campus. Jerry Adamson, Hartnell student, inspects the well- raised turkeys on the live¬ stock branch of the school. Concentration is the key factor in working with machines. Larry Bianchini and Jerry Harvick keep their minds on their work in producing valuable machine parts. No matter how large machines are be¬ coming, they still require human beings with brains to operate them. Kay Daubert plows up a small portion of the land de¬ voted to agriculture. John Sanders, Edward Amaral and Norman Selva prove that teamwork accomplishes a lot as they construct mill cabinets in the carpentry department. Charles Alan and Angelo Mangano go over the mechanics of fixing the transistor in a stereo record player in the electronics depart¬ ment. m THEIR HANES AT EAST CAMPUS Students come to A M to receive valu¬ able training in occu¬ pational fields. Busy hands run the projects and aid the students in better preparing themselves for their future. i ■ m i ■ vjr 1 The second part of the A M be¬ longs to mechanics. Eddie Blohm and Bill Neufeld look over a big diesel to insure themselves of a well-done engine overhaul. Helping to make a well-rounded occupa¬ tional field for the students, the A M department offers welding. Gordon Zook makes use of the shop by welding parts for different tools and cars. Rising to new heights of popularity the radio shop features many future leaders in the elec¬ tronics field. Victor Torculas makes final fit¬ tings to a radio while Larry Steffens adds an¬ other delicate part to his electronic project. As Head of the Extended Day, Mr. Schaub and his Secre¬ tary Billey Sweatt are kept quite busy with enrollment and meetings during the evening. When he finds time off you will find him in the Student Lounge drinking coffee and associating with the students. Dr. Holmes demonstrates to his evening class about wave lengths and how they are picked up on the oscilloscope. His instruments included: Guitar, trombone, tuba, and drums. They produced some very interesting reactions on the meter. Mr. Amyx shows Ron Ulrici and Mrs. G. Jines how to make a picture a little more lifelike. During the Oil Painting evening class they usually paint still lifes or models. During his History evening class. Dr. Borough brings the class up to date on past and present history. He talked on Woodrow Wilson while the pictures were being taken, recalling a few facts; he explains to the class to watch him and not the camera. Extended Day courses grow in demand each semester, until the total students in nighttime Hartnell have reached nearly 1,400 in number. These “classes for the working classes,” while attended by both housewives and hobbyists, also serve another purpose. Hartnell daytime students can, in some cases, satisfy their lower division study requirements and attain their A.A. degrees in short order. So the phrase “night and day” means something special to nearly 300 eager Harts. 1 1 A flams can cut apart as well as it can join together—at least Earl Barker discovers this is one of the uses of a cutting torch in the course of welding at East Campus. Modern machine tools ready for use represented a many-thousand-dollar investment. Physical Education instructor Doc Adams explains some of the finer points of First Aid (using his friend Chester) to apprentice plumbers in the evening. Made for each other . . . and no amount of squeezing of the parts is going to put this cabinet together unless the pieces are correct and trimmed to size. Walt Parker, one of the students in the popular Mill Cabinet course, investigates that inside fit. In this classroom a future John Glenn, astronaut, might be cast. Mr. William Gunnarson lectures here to his class in aviation, demonstrating his theories on aerodynamics with quick sketches. Dr. Ching, with several interested faculty members in his office, adds up the score as the group sweats out the returns of the science building bond election in February. By the way, the bond issue was passed by the voters. Always busy Mrs. Shinn was forever looking up employment for job-hungry students. Many said they owed their jobs to her southern charm. The individuals that make up the educational, secretarial and janitorial personnel on campus are linked by one purpose —no matter how direct or indirect their duties, they are all needed to provide the students with the atmosphere, the facil¬ ities, the means for a sound education. Dr. Howard Feder, one of Hartnell ' s publishing scientists, not only instructed marine biology in the classroom but also advised much of the cul¬ tural programs at the college. Many times throughout the day, small gr oups of instructors could be seen in the halls. Are they discussing urgent classroom prob¬ lems or having a bull session? Typical were artist Leon Amyx, controller Sid Ahtye and business teacher Lorenz Newton. crM Coaches Muldoon, Regli, Athletic Director Adams, Middaugh, and Peavy got together at the be¬ ginning of the fall semes¬ ter to map out various athletic programs for the coming year which would give students a chance to let off steam. TO EDUCATE Caught in the act of preparing a class¬ room for another day for the best pos¬ sible educational atmosphere was Stan¬ ley Anderson. It was entirely possible that Dr. Bedford locked through this book for a special reason. Many new ideas.on psychology come out in periodicals that he can use in class. Time out from tutoring. English instructor Mrs. Abbott demon¬ strates that the faculty must feed their innards as well as the minds of students. ... FOR THE FUTURE Our Board ' s crowning achievement this year was the planning of a science building and a bond election to finance the structure. The $1.8 million was authorized in February—a public vote of confidence for the college and for the Board and its dream of the future. Above are the men who made this possible: Dr. Aaron Grib. Dr. James R. Fassett. Dr. Bard R. Daughters. Villeroy Gleason. Finis Jeffers. Below, their dream realized. TRUSTEE TO PROVIDE TEE BEST Trustees in word and responsibility, the five men who guide Hartnell College must carry the present smoothly while planning for the future. The Board of Trustees has seen a vision of the future which shows the College as a hub of learning, culture, and sports for the community. THE KEYS TO A BETTER TOMORROW The door to the past has been closed but many others—those into the future—have been un¬ locked. The time given by the administration has raised the standards of the college and the aca¬ demic level of the students. In addition, many hours have been spent in the conference rooms seeking ways to bring to the college a pleasant atmosphere and one of culture. The relationship between students and administration provides the foundation for a better future for the grad¬ uates of tomorrow.

MAINSPRING The service and maintenance person¬ nel, both east side and west side, served as a mainspring to carry out the many necessary jobs found in every school and to make Hartnell an enjoyable place to study. Both students and faculty were fortunate to have such a group to keep our school running smoothly. Always friendly and willing, these service and maintenance groups worked with a cheer¬ fulness that was heartwarming. ADMINISTRATION PERSONNEL In the President s office Marie Mauro ponders a perplexing problem of ponderous proportion while Carol Hathaway perceives a possible proposal. CAFETERIA Our cheerful cafeteria crew serves its specialty brew to the students in the S.U. MAINTENANCE Elmer Sharp. Jonas Tittle, James Arguello (back row), and Leonard Frost, Clyde Potts, Daniel Mendeq and Tony Senko keep Hartnell from falling apart. EAST CAMPUS MAINTENANCE Humberto Mendez, Glen Hall, Ralph Walsmith, Clarence Altman, and Warren Kidder eagerly wait for Roy Cavanagh ' s generous gesture of buying coke and coffee for his fellow workers. HARTNELL u BOOKSTORE Monnie Finney, Manager, and Peter Strindberg look to see that Patsy Vaught doesn ' t sell another Goldwater book, while Marilyn Albertson sharpens a five- cent pencil purchased at a discount. LIBRARY Phyllis Ausmus, Phebe Fiese, Alice Costa, and Edith Hunter plan their vacations in Hawaii—made possible by students who have overdue books. BUSINESS STAFF I told you I was right and the IBM machine was wrong. points out Jo Porter to Comptroller Sidney Ahtye while Mil¬ dred Decker enjoys the proof that the woman is always right. Bonnie Van Gundy, Lee Brown, Mary Ellen Smith, Billey Sweatt. and Lena-Jim Wilson wish that Hartnell students wouldn ' t try to add classes on the deadline day just before closing time. The participation at Hartnell conies to an end for many of us who have been here for one semester or four. But this June also brings to an end the teaching career of Hartnell’s “grande ' dame” of business—Miss Ruth Rothrock. She began her career as one of a handful of teachers in 1920 when Salinas Junior College opened classes in one wing of the high school. She helped steer the young college through the formative years leading up to the move to its present campus in 1937. She stuck to the job when World War II reduced the student total to 171 and spread the faculty thin. Then through the postwar growth of Hartnell, both in people and in buildings, she helped the college to be ranked among the highest Junior Colleges academically in the nation. Now as she steps down from the podium, Miss Rothrock can see her college expanding in population, buildings, and bright plans fdr the future. We believe she can be proud of having a steady hand in its growth to prominence. AT LAST, TIME TO SIT BACK
