What lesson may we draw from the fact that most of the world's great men have come from poor surroundings, men who learn in childhood to accept life as it is, to do their part cheerfully, to dare in the face of intolerable conditions, and to achieve in the face of hardships? While Washington and Lincoln are two of the greatest builders of the nation, l-lorace Mann was the quiet inner builder who earnestly strove for the soul development of the nation. This great teacher of o-ver one hundred years ago scattered the seeds of true education and you have the privilege and opportunity of reaping the harvest. The only sure way is to glean from the experience of your life, the good, the valuable, the true, and the beautiful. Are you getting from your education the highest moral, civic and cultural values? Are you selecting as your habits the priceless gems of honesty, gratitude, service, and courage? Self-government fails unless the heart and soul of the individuals are good: so- Democracy fails unless the people are good at heart. lt is my sincere desire that up to this point in your education you have been trained in purpose, in tastes, in citizenship, and in slcill so that through life you may stand alone in the face of hardships without special privilege or perfect surroundings. If this is true you have indeed learned the principle of true self-government and have every reaso-n to expect a happy and successful life. 7 M766 Your education is not completed with your graduation. It is a process which con- tinues through lite, for we learn by doing. It is our hope that your education thus tar has prepared you to meet the challenge of the tuture. Our good wishes for an active, worthwhile career go with you as you leave l-loover l-ligh School. U' cu, OPPORTUNITY They do me wrong who say l come no more When once l lcnoclc and tail to find you ing For every day l stand outside your door, And bid you walce, and rise to fight and win. Many opportunities will corne to you atter you leave us. We only hope that the train- ing you have received here will better enable you to take advantage ot them. May the success ot a well rounded life be QZQJKME' 8 SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT First row Ieff to right: Miss Sciwiicrlu, Mr. Sliowley Second row: Mrs. Bankercl, Mr. Ganawoy, Miss Naylor Miss Work, Mr. Young, Mr. Maxwell, Miss Gidclings 7 COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT Firsi row Ieft to right: Mrs. Hamilton Mrs. Snead, Miss Miller.

At their second meeting they chose sweaters and ordered rings. Summer ended, and at the tirst Senior A meeting on September 30, Gordon Voorhies was elected president ot the class. Maurice Nelson won the place ot vice president, and Gwen Suchy that ot secretary- treasurer. The cabinet and committees were appointed by the otticers, according to custom. On September 28, all new tweltth grade girls, under the guidance ot Mrs. Kyes and Cardinal Co-ed president, Barbara Wright, were enter- tained by a group ot Senior A girls. The l-loover Cardinals ot the Air was the new l-loover news program over KESD. The first presentation was October 8, at 4:45 p. m., with Mr. C. Gerald l-lasty as director. On November 24, the A. S. B. Ball was tor the tirst time held away trom school-at the l-louse ot l-lospitality in Balboa Parlc.

Piling into luxurious Greyhound busses on January l2, Seniors were ready to-r a big ditch day at Pine Valley. On January 2I, the last Senior A meeting was held to discuss Vespers, Tower Day, and Commencement. Everyone enjoyed himselt at the Senior A Ball, January 2 I, as he danced to the music ot Eranlc Losey's orchestra at Casa de Manana. The tollowing Sunday, January 23, Vesper services were conducted at the Eirst Baptist Church. Tower Day at last came tor all Senior A's. This happy occasion was also witnessed by members ot the Senior B class. A checlc toward a tund to be used tor a tountain in the patio was the seniors' gitt to the school. As each senior was granted his diploma on January 26, at State College Gymnasium, he realized that his high school days were torever go-ne. l-le is sure that every faculty member and student ot l-loover l-ligh School has helped in malcing this Senior year the most enjoyable one ot his high school career.

The group stepped quickly into line, electing Carroll Wight, president: Norman Wier, vice president: and Ro-bert Romaine, secretary-treasurer. Due to the divided opinions ot the class regarding senior sweaters, two were chosen-one ot red corduroy and white lcnit: the other, white wattle lcnit. The emblem ot each was a cardinal atop an l-l written across with l938. March 8, 9, l0, l I, saw record-breaking crowds thronging the Roose- velt Junior l-ligh School Auditorium to see the senior play, She Couldn't Say No. Patsy l-lubbard was starred with Ross Tenney, Carroll Wight, and Bob l-larvey. About 4000 people attended. On March I7, the senior class was given a vocational assembly, at which Miss Cloud ot Woodbury College spoke on vocations. The students tound the hour most pleasant and protitable. Ditch Day at Pine Valley, under the direction ot AI Robbins, proved as memorable an occasion as the seniors, through three years ot high school, had anticipated. The day was tilled with haps and mishaps, and everybody voted it the best day ot the semester. Vespers were held at the First Presbyterian Church, Dr. l-lamilton presiding. The A Cappella Choir sang tor the services. Tower Day came the next Tuesday. Following l-loover tradition, the graduates presented their successors with the heritage ot the Senior A class, and awards were given to outstanding students and otticers ot the semester. On this last day ot high school tor the graduates, regrets crept in to lceep our happi- ness company. As a fitting close to three eventful years ot high school, June 8 saw the Commencement exercises at the Ford Bowl. The music groups ot l-loover added color to the attair, while student speakers joined in a panel discussion to bring to the audience a picture ot the aims ot American youth. lt has been a full three years. Goodbye, l-loover. 27 CARROLL WIGHT NORMAN WlER President Vice Prcsidcnt MILDRED LARSON MURRELL ALBERTY SeniorA Ball Annual JEANNE COUVRETTE VERNON STIERS Play Sales Play Sales PAT POWERS AL ROBBINS President Senior A Cardinal Co-Eds Ditclri Day it ROBERT ROMAINE MRSHAMILTON Secretary-Treasurer FERN CARROLL Senior A Cardinal ROSS TENNEY Vespers EDITH BlCKNELL Announcements 28 SeniorAdviser BOB HARVEY Commencement RICHARD STANLEY Class Song BOB HARER Social Hour Adair, Margie Adamson, Edith Alberty, Murrell Allen, James Thomas Anderson, Jeannette Ansty, Edith L.

Coach Perry, who has been with the school since its opening, has successtully taken the ambitious youths in hand and produced one ot the best football teams on the coast. The alphabet of rules, learned by the Varsity and B basketball teams, is thoroughly taught by Coach Carr. Rehearsed are these lads at tossing the ball with speed and accuracy into baslcets which seem to open automatically tor it. Coach Caldwell, another instructor ot precisely techniqued muscle coordination, has trained and displayed teams ot baseball players who have been donors ot many sparkling ornaments in the trophy case. Newest to the coaching statt is Mr. Young. l-le recently staged on o-ur tield the tirst night traclc meet ever held in San Diego.

HE OUTSTANDING teats ot Herbert Hoover's tootball team in i937 were to win the city championship and to tinish second in the Coast League. Playing in hard luck in their only two out- ot-town games, the Cardinals dropped them one right atter the other, and then went on not to be beaten again throughout the season. Altogether there were eight games-tour league co-ntests and tour non- conterence contests. Winning six and losing two sounds like just a tair record, but on three ditterent occasions reterees were quoted as saying, Hoover has the best prep team l have ever seen. Hoover I4, Covina 0 Clearly out-playing the Covina eleven, which was unscored on in two previous games against highly touted teams, the Redbirds completely dominated the whole game with the exception ot a tew briet moments in the tirst quarter. One touchdown was the result ot a direct power drive with Royce Steppler going over: the other was made by AI Robbins, guard, who blocked a Covina punt and tell on it in the end zone. Captain Bob DeLauer converted both points atter the touchdowns. Hoover 20, Marines 0 The Big Red Machine was in command throughout the whole contest. Tearing ott yardage in great hunks, the Cards literally swamped the betuddled Tenth Marines with sparkling runs and good passes. Early tumbles led to Hoover's scoring, Paul Siraton and Steppler going over 56 Coast League Pla ers Don Daley. tackle Ernie McAnulty, back Bill Hirr, guard and a McAnulty-to-DeLauer pass also netting a goal. Del.auer kicked both extra points. A Hoover 33, Brawley 6 ' Overcoming a 6 to O lead Hoover came back and changed what started out to be a close battle into a plain slaughter. Ernie McAnulty, Bob Homesley, Wilber Boegeman, and Bob Beckus, who made two touch- downs, all scored for Hoover, with Don Del.auer, Bob Harvey, and Bob Carr all converting for extra points. Hoover I3, Alhambra I4 Meeting defeat for the first time in a heartbreaker, the Hooverites were caught from behind by a fighting bunch of Moors, after retiring in the first half with a I3 to 7 lead. The two Hoover scores were made by Steppler, who scored on a line buck after a down-field march, and Beckus, who caught the kickoff after the first Moor touchdown and rambled 98 yards behind perfect interference. Hoover 6, Long Beach Poly I4 Passes, passes, and more passes, and with them went Hoover's hope of winning the Coast League Pennant. Poly simply passed the Cards dizzy, and with Hoover playing in hard luck, the Jackrabbits went on to cop the game. Hoover's touchdown also came as the result o-f a pass, Del.auer to Carr, and then Captain Bob plunged over for six points. Hoover I8, Woodrow Wilson 0 Up until the time that they met Hoover, Wilso-n was undefeated in Coast League competition, having beaten Alhambra. Beckus was the bright light of the game, scoring two touchdowns, with Steppler making the other score. This game was the high point of Hoover's entire season. Hoover I3, San Diego 6 ln the game that really counted, Hoover came through in great style. Changing to the air ways with complete success, the Cardinals were not to be denied. For the first score, Bob Beckus, Cardinal climax runner, surprised everyone by throwing a perfect strike to Leon Carver for a touchdown: Siraton converted. For the next touchdown Ernie McAnulty, whose long spiraling kicks were the feature of the game, threw a pass to Bob Carr who dodged his way to the goal for the precious 6 points. Hoover I9, El Monte 6 ln this, the final game of the season, Hoover threw everything they had into the invaders, who later reached the finals of the Southern California Championship. Highlight of the game was Leon Carver's 67-yard dash to a touchdown on a reverse. Y lLett to rightl First row, left to right: Davis, Minor Prusa, Mitchell, Aguirre, Fitzenmycr, Tazelaar.

I-Ioover's basketeers were crowned Coast League Champs at the end ot the I937-38 season. There were eight regular games on the schedule, with the Cardinals playing each Coast League school twice. The Redbirds weren't given much trouble by any school except San Diego, who beat them one game 20 to I9 in a hair-raising finish, while the Cards won the other game 3I to 24. Alhambra went down 25 to I8 in the tirst game ot the season and came back to take another beating to the tune ot 36 to 26. Long Beach PoIy's tate was the same as AIhambra'sg they lost the tirst game 27 to I7 and the second game 36 to 22. Despite the work ot Eikleman and Snow, I-Ioover went on to deteat Woodrow Wilson ot Long Beach, although not by such large scores, winning the tirst contest 25 to 23 and annexing the second, 4I to 34. I-loover also won the I-Iuntington Beach All Southern Counties Basketball Tournament by smothering all competition. Eirst came Muir Tech, which was defeated 47 to 28. Next came Santa Ana, I-Ioover winning 48 to I9. Last, and the game which cinched the title, was the one with Chattee, which the Redbirds went on to take by a score ot 45 to 32. Captain Dick Mitchell, torwardg Eelix Aguirre, torwardg and I-Iarold Prusa, center, made the All-Tournament team and received individual trophies. Mitchell and Aguirre also made the All Coast League Basketball team, with Prusa and Ed Tazelaar, guard, making the seccnd team. Joe Davis and Max Eitzenmeyer, both received honorable mention. 58 .L First row, left to right: BQII, Owen, Davidson, I-Ieclceroth, Neil, Smith, I-Ierrin . 3 I Second row: Wisdom, R.

Winning tive and Iosing three was the best the I-Ioover Bees could do, mainly because ot the greenness ot the team, and due to the tact that the players had never worked together betore. Alhambra was I-Ioover's tirst victim, going down to deteat by the extremely close score ot 25 to 24. The next game with the Moors proved to be just as close, with the score: t'Io-over-I4, Alhambra-I3. Led by Murphy, high scoring guard, Long Beach Poly handed I-Ioover a 27 to I7 beating in their tirst contest, but on their next meeting, the Cardinals came through to reverse matters and gave Poly their only deteat ot the year to the tune ot 20 to I4. Twice I-Io-over beat Woodrow Wilson. The tirst game ended with the score 37 to 27, while the second came out 28 to 20. San Diego's more experienced team seemed to have the I-Ioover tive's number and took them down 24 to I9 in the tirst contest and 23 to I2 in the next. The Iineup that started most ot the games was: Forwards--Captain Norman I-Ieclceroth, and Charlie Smith: Center-Stuart Neil: Guards- Jerry Davidson and I-Ienry Bell. Besides these men, those who made Ietters are: Donovan Owen and Claude I-Ierring-torwardsg Royce Boaz-center: Reed Scott, George Traub, and Murrell Alberty-guards. 59 x 2 2 Amina A- V F t , left to right: Davidson lMgr.l, Smith, B.

Despite the tact that the Cards lacked seconds and thirds, they had so many tirst places that they were considered a serious threat by everyo-ne. Clyde Yakel, Bob Beckus, and Al Cordray, the high scoring Cardinal Trio, accounted for at least one-third ot our points in every meet. The weakest spot on the team was in the hurdles and pole vault, and this is where the opposing teams picked up a good many ot their points. ln the first two meets alone, the l-loover team broke six school records, a thing which isn't done by just mediocre teams. ln the dual meets l-loover tied tor tirst with Wilson and San Diego, winning three and losing one. l-loover beat San Diego, Poly, and Alhambra and lost a heart-breaker to Wilson. One ot the most outstanding events tor the Cardinals was the 880 yard relay. Against San Diego the score was tied 58W to 58W and the Redbird team ot Yakel, Cordray, Beckus, and Adair came through to win in the record-breaking time of l:3O.7. ln the Coast League finals l-loover came out second by amassing a total ot 56 points. San Diego won with Wilson third, Long Beach Poly tourth, and Alhambra titth. 60 T! First row, left to ri ht: Breen, Rowland, Rochetort, J.

Despite the tact that the Redbirds didn't walls away with the pen- nant, they managed to win a number ot games and make the score tairly close. At any rate the other clubs always Icnew that they had been in a ball game after the close ot the contest. Del Oliver and Burt Kenmuir gave some mastertul exhibitions, while Jaclc Lange and Jerry Davison played the part ot the come-through boys on many occasions. In the first round I-Ioover started ott right, deteating Alhambra by the score ot 8 to 6 in a game full ot errors. In the next game Hoover was swamped IO to O by the strong Long Beach Poly team. Woodrow Wil- son, Long Beach, was proclaimed the winner in the game against the Cards, the score being I to O. I-Ioover also met deteat in the last game ot the tirst round when they lost to San Diego, 7 to 4. The Cardinals came out better in the second round than in the tirst, reversing the count, winning three, and losing one. The rally started against Alhambra when they beat the Moors the second straight two by a score of I6 to 5. Next I-Ioover deteated Poly 5 to 4 and Wilson 6 to 3. San Diego then beat us tor the second time as a result of a tirst inning rally which scored so many runs tor the I-Illlers the Cards were not able to catch up. The tinal score was I I to 3. 6 I 1 TENNIS First row, left to right: Nvil, Hall, Rccmclin, Oliver, Owens, Scltyrzr. Second row: Moy, Hunziclrcr, Grirncc. Plummer, Idle, Holland. NDER THE GLHDANCE ot Miss Lena Peterson, tennis at Hoover has loecome an outstanding sport in the last two years. Hoover netsters have shown up well in both local and Coast League competition. An extensive practice schedule this year included matches with San Diego, Yuma, EI Centro, Coronado, Grossmont, Point Loma, and La Jolla. OACHED BY MR. LAMBERT, golt is tast loe- coming an exciting addition to our tield ot sports at Hoover. lt has in past years interested only seniors, however, sophomores are talcing more interest in this mixed club ot boys and girls and are showing pronounced ability. Practice is held every atternoon atter school, and a tew league competitions have been held on Saturday. lt's Fore tor Hoovcr's Golf Club. First row, left to right: Wformington, Hart, Duncan. S nd row: Hanna Borquist, Coach Lambert, Brewer, Rising, McCullum, GULF GIRLS' SPORTS FTER TWO OR MORE MONTHS of vacation, the girls come back to school to enter vigorous sports. First the gym faculty introduces to the tan-skins volleyball. This works up to that exciting game, speed-ball. In keeping with the boys' interests, we, too, play basket-ball, baseball, and track in order. Girls intensely interested in athletics try for letters and join the O. PMA., which is presided over by the Commissioner of Girls' Athletics. In charge of the fall class was Mary Miller: head of the spring session was Patsy l-lubbard. This year several events have been held, one in par- ticular being out of the ordinary, a fashion show and tea. Following came horseback riding, a splash party, a hike, and the dance, all equally exciting and enjoyable. The requirements to be- long to this club are an R in gym for two consecutive semesters or participation in after- school games for one term. Straight gym wasn't the only class embarked upon at the beginning of school this year. We had a choice of taking try-outs for any one of four different forms of muscle coordination- tennis, coaching, drill, and tumbling. The girls' tennis group this year has held a tournament and crowned a queen, Josephine Sears. Miss Peterson had charge of the tournament and the introduc- tion of forty-two girls to better tennis playing. New, also, this year is Mrs. Williams' class in coaching or umpiring. The class is held during third period with the purpose of preparing girls to take care of classes so that the teachers may give individual instruction. Not new, however, are our tumblers who have stunted and tumbled before us at football games and assemblies, and have been outstanding entertainment to guest schools for years. Miss Upp is still the head of this acrobatic set. The variety of choice now possible in gym- nastics makes this an attractive field for the l-loover girls of today. 63 K , . 1 , ! f +1 is ga 31 fi Em Qu 5 5 ,. 3 3 -X 'lf :- -1 li S 2 E 1 , ,f -Q 5 1 vi f 3 01 ggi 14 5 P i 3 Q al 5 W7 - r ' 1 1 N MMA 4 I .413 . 45:4 V . 9, 1 ,VW fy? ,Q v fry f X Ei fi a Q4 5 -1 wtw?r-.: - , N Q . 1 4 J- Ll, . , , J f 1 K A Q 1 ' A of '5Neptg.gn g vis the scebtre 1 1 X v Off fb?

SENIGR GIRLS' GLEE Ill-l Tl-IE BEGINNING ot the tall semester, a junior girls' glee club was created, and girls wishing to take advanced glee are required to sing tor a semester with the junior group. Certain excep- tions are made to this rule, however, and, with a semester ot glee at another senior high school and a try-out, a girl may be placed immediately into the advanced group. The chiet ditterence between the two groups lies in the maturity ot voice rather than in the ability to read music. Last semester the girls took part in a caroling program on the streets ct downtown San Diego to open the Christmas season. They presented a program ot carols at the Plaza, sang tor the student body at Christmas, and visited various hospitals, combining with the other vocal departments ot the school in cheering the sick. They sang at Commencement, bringing an eventful year to a close. Officers tor the tirst semester were: president, Frances Nelson: sec- retary, Betty Patterson, librarian, Mary Maynard1 and assistant librarian, Norma English. Eunice Van Buren was elected president during the spring semesterp Betty Patterson was reelected secretary: Norma English, libra- rian: and Jean Carr, assistant librarian. 68 First row, left to right: Lange, Rowe, Tazelaar, Cordray, Davison, Wetherbee, Ha lr Gilchrist, Price.

The class is tor the purpose ot preparing girls tor advanced glee. Two or three part songs are the basis tor most ot the work at present. Sight reading, knowledge ot the rudiments ot music, proper placing ot tone, and shading are stressed. Last semester the girls made seven public appearances. They sang two numbers tor the I-Ioover Christmas program. A double trio trom the junior glee club served and provided entertainment at the Christmas caroling party given by the senior glee clubs. This trio also appeared on several other programs given by the junior glee. Other appearances were at local churches, the Merchants' Christmas celebration, and betore the Wednesday Club. This semester they have become completely organized with an enrollment ot titty-tive. The otticers are: President Caroline Dethlott Program Chairman .

Now all players must tirst graduate trom the junior organization betore they can play with the senior group. However, in all activities which call tor the band, the juniors combine with the seniors. Another addition to the band this year is the accordian section. Mr. Close has devoted tremendous energy toward this group, even transcribing their music tor them. The tull band played at all the tootball games in which Hoover participated here in San Diego. Their annual trip was to Long Beach to play tor the Long Beach Poly game. During the cou se ot the ycar they have participated in three parades: the celebration tc-r the opening ot El Cajon Boulevard: the North Park Christmas parade: and the Armistice Day parade down town. At the music testivals tor county and city schools, April 23 and May 22, respectively, the band played the Phedre Overture, His Honor, and Marching to Victory. A band club was tormed during the spring semester, but is, as yet, in its infancy. The goal ot the band is one hundred senio-r members and titty junior members. 75 F st row, left to right: Sundcrhaut, Baxter, Bennett, Andcrson, Hom, Adamson, Thomas.

CALIFORNIA SCHOLARSHIP FEDERATION iooESr AND Mosr SUCCESSFUL Hoover c.S.P. activity tor the semester was the variety show presented tor the student body last semester. The assembly, which included singing, dancing, and other vaudeville acts, netted a protit ot 57200. This money was placed in the scholarship tund which is sponsored by the C.S.F. to lend money to boys and girls who wish to continue their education by going to college, but are tinancial y unable to do so. During the tall semester a ditch day was held, and all members ot the organization were excused trom school to go to Pine Valley tor a picnic, horseback riding, and other outdoor sports. A picnic lunch made the day a memo-rable one. The I-loover chapter ot C.S.F. was well represented at the Regional Conterence held at Santa Monica April 30th, and at the Annual May City Banquet. Members also enjoyed a beach party in May. To become a member ot the C.S.F. a boy or girl must be recom- mended in scholarship by three ot his teachers and receive all Rec- ommends in citizenship. Membership tor tour semesters entitles a student to receive a gold pin. These pins are usually presented to individuals on Tower Day when other awards are made. C.S.F. meetings are held approximately once a month, usually at noon time. Madeline Baxter was president last Semester, and Yelma June Myers, this term. 76 First row, left to right: l-layfs, Sexton, Cleator, Swanson, Dearborn, Irick, Miss D V l Wolff, Thornton, Carmody, Multin, Carroll.
