Because high school has been the ruling tactor in our lives, the appropriate theme to-r the I94I Dias Carolinalesn is Our Campus World. DEDICATION To Floyd A. Jolinson, ttie rnan wlio tias inspired and guided us not only by his words ot wisdom, but also by lwis splendid example, we, ttie classes ot I94I, do dedicate tl'iis, our annual, in the lwope that sucl'i a small tribute may express, in some small measure, our gratitude tor luis leaderslwip.

Darnall Mrs. Mary L. Fay Mrs. Mildred L. I-lale Mr. Maurice B. Ross - - - Secretary to the Board SUPERIIXITENDENT OF SCHOOLS Dr. Will C. Crawford EMBERS ot the graduating class ot l94l: Never betore have I telt the need ot expressing to a graduating class ot l-loover l-ligh School the necessity ot taking upon themselves the responsibility and maturity that perhaps in 'Former years a people ot your age could have postponed. Each graduating class, as it leaves high school, has to adjust itselt to the world as it is at the time ot graduation whether it is a time ot economic depression, a period ot great industrial achievement, or a time ot great want and suttering in this country as well as in others. The youth that leaves high school today should be equipped to live a balanced lite in the tace ot social changes in our communities. A graduate will not need to spend his leisure time stupidly or accept cheap and barren amusement. l-le has learned to discriminate in the choice ot art, music. literature, and moving pictures. l-le has learned to respect the beautitul in the culture ot other lands and to conserve the natural resources ot his own country. The education pro-cess is a continuing one, however, and the excellent person is he who malces great demands upon himselt. If you have enriched your lite by the things that you have learned, your community is ready tor you and needs you. Although you may have a special service to give and are continuing your education, nevertheless, your character, your way ot lite, and your lcnowledge will be telt today by those about you. May you accept the challenge ot American Citizenship and all that it implies as you take your place in the community. Sincerely, KT M75 A MESSAGE TO SENIOR A'S You have hope and taith and youth as part ot your assets in starting out to assume selt-responsibility. May you always in time ot need have courage, too. None ot us knows what the tuture holds tor us, but my wish to-r each ot you is that you may experience happiness and success in your chosen occupation. Most sincerely yours, U LL-i. A MESSAGE TO GRADUATES It is with a great deal ot teeling that I say good-by to you seniors ot I94I upon your graduation. You are graduating into a na- tion wrought with the tever ot preparedness, preparedness to protect itselt against the enemies ot democracy. In this most essen- tial military preparedness program do not let us torget the necessity ot preparedness tor lite, one ot the milestones ot which you have iust passed. It is my hope that yo-ur training here at l-lerbert l-loover High School has been ot such a nature that you will be better pre- pared to meet the problems ot the world. It is also my hope that you will contnue to study the social, political, economic, and religious trends ot the world so you may continue to be prepared to meet lite as you come into contact with it. Mv best wishes go with you. I W ' ' A A , SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT FirS'c row, left fo right Mrs. Urner, Mrs. Underhill, Mrs. Pingree, Miss Naylor, Miss Work. Second row: Mr. Seely.

FEBRUARY CLASS ROM the time that Senior A's proudly displayed their new class sweaters on the opening day of the semester until graduation, the February Class performed its numerous activities under the leadership of Charles Blackburn, president: John Doria, vice-president, Gail Pitzer. secretary-treasurer, and the other thirteen members of the cabinet. The social hour, at which ambitious seniors mastered the art of dancing, was enjoyed weekly in the Girls' Gym. l-lome Coming Day on October 26 was enthusiastically celebrated with a parade of colorful floats up EI Cajon Boulevard, followed by a rally in the stadium. November 16, the day of the traditional grid struggle with San Diego High School, will be remembered by graduates as a highlight of their senior year. Take My Advice, the class play, ran for three nights, Novem- ber 28, 29, and 30, at the Roosevelt Auditorium. John Doria, adorned with a big black mustache and a fat cigar, stole the show as the unfortunate victim of all oil stock salesmen. Numerous seniors discovered the thrill of dancing at the Military Ball on December 6 and the A. S. B. Ball on December I3. Cn January IS, Senior A's experienced the exclusive joy of ditching to Pine Valley. Cabinet member Bud lsham was respon- sible for the fun the class had while dancing, hiking, horseback riding, playing baseball, and, especially, eating. The solemn beauty of Vespers, held in the First Methodist Church on February 2, made a deep impression on the minds of seniors. Dr. George l-l. Warmer gave an inspirational address on Facing the Unknown. Traditional Tower Day, the date on which students are presented with awards and scholarships, was celebrated on the morning of February 4. After the ceremony, seniors climbed to the tower to- sign their names on the roster. The evening of February 4 was the date of the long-awaited Senior A Prom, which was arranged by Bud Fast. Bids of colorful red suede, decorated with the cardinal seal, were given to seniors who danced in l-lotel del Coronado to the music of Frank Comstock's Orchestra. An entirely new event on the Senior A Calendar was the dinner party, held on the same evening as the ball, at the U. S. Grant l-lotel for students who did not dance. Senior A Commencement on February 5 was the impressive finale. Margaret Sheoperd andyQuincy Wright gave talks on the timely topic, Education for Common Defense. With the receipt of their long-awaited diplomas, the Senior A's had at last completed their high school careers and faced a future of higher education or entrance into the working world. 25 Charles

Under president Robert l.aabs, co-vice-presidents Bette Willis and l-larry Cook, and secretary- treasurer Joyce Dick, the class enjoyed the tull tlavor ot traditional activities with a spice and zest all its own. To turn rebellious teet into paths ot rhythm and grace was the work ot Wilma Co-ttrell and Wilbur Sehaeller. Atter-school-dancing- practice turned walltlowers into polished dancers. The Senior A play, What a Lite, under the supervision ot Mr. C. Gerald l-lasty and student director Geneva Gray was a hilarious take-Ott on high school lite. Every curtain saw a packed house due to the ettorts ot ticket sellers Beatrice North and Charles Lake. This largest class also had the largest annual ever produced at l-loover. Gver eight hundred copies were distributed to seniors and other students. Ardith l-lellberg and Phyllis Ketalas were managing editors. The Senior A Cardinal nearly turned tabloid with the large number ot pictures, but, under the guidance ot John King, proved itselt to be the best ever. The actual activities started in the latter part ot May with Ditch Day. Pine Valley again saw the Senior A's ready tor a mem- orable day ot swimming, riding, hiking, baseball, volleyball, tennis, and dancing. Directed by Ernie Summers the holiday proved an immense success. Cardinal Co-ed Day put President Gere Miller in tull sway and the girls out ot unitorm. The Senior A Ball was a delighttul evening ot semiftormal trolic due to the caretul planning ot Shirley Jones. For the Seniors who didn't care to dance there was a dinner party arranged by Eleanor Reese. Both tunctions proved themselves to be highlights ot the Senior activities. Announcements, arranged by Genevieve Parker, were sent out soon atter. A quietly beautitul Vespers ceremony came in June. Planned by Jane Lothlen, it reflected the mo-re serious side ot the graduation. Tower Day gave Seniors their hard earned awards in scholarship and certiticates ot merit. Commencement exercises completed our class activities. The tinal ceremony was concluded by the distribution ot diplomas. Glenna Einch planned and supervised this activity. Mr. Bernard Carman guided and helped class otticers in his position ot adviser. Mrs. Ethel De Vcl lmel, girls, and Mr. Malcolm C. Smith, boys, were class counselors. And so, we passed trom the little world that was our Alma Mater to the greater world outside. 43 .- Robert Laabs President Bette Willis Vice-president Harry Cool: Vice-president Joyce Dick Secretary-treasurer .lohn King Senior A Cardinal Phyllis Kefalas Annual Ardith Hellberg Annual Mr. Carman Faculty Adviser Glenna Finch Commencement .lane Lothlen , Vespe s V- sw.-1 - Ernest Summers Ditch Day M iff: Shirley Jones Senior A Ball Gere Miller Cardinal Co-ed President Eleanor Reese Senior A Dinner Wilma Cottrell Social Hour Wilbur Schoeller Social l-lour Genevieve Parker Announcements Geneva Gray Senior A Play Beatrice North Play Sales Charles Lake Play Sales CLEM ABBEY Art BETTY ABBOTT General Clerical CHRISTINE ACOSTA Home Economics LOUISE AKINS Social Science 'YMJNQ1 'fx- FRANKLIN ALVERSON Science JERRY ANDERSON Spanish and Mathematics KATHERINE ANDERSON Mathematics I A fails LEWIS AN EANGER ,N Q ,, Bookkeeping JYW-vf 'affix' ELAINE ARNOLD General Clerical LINDA ARVIN Home Economics LOIS ASH BY Home Economics RICHARD ATTI6 Mpthematics, ' ACB! 4,,,mif', I 'II X ,QU CBB' RoBERT BABINEC X B' Social Science XA RUTH BABINEC French ROBIERT BAILEY Mathematics, Mechanical Drawing and Social Science KATHLEEN BAKER Mathematics ancl Social Science VIRGINIA BARKER Languages PATRICIA BARTLETT Science 45 JEROME BAU MAN General Clerical PHYLLIS BAXTER Social Science ELIZABETH BECKCOM AUREO BELASCO Social Science Home Economics BEVERLY BEST Languages L il Br vt ROBERT BILLBURG tm bk, LSU - Industrial Arts is W Social Science and Commercial RALPH BLACK Mathematics, Latin, and Science 1 lf!! .- V, r CLARENCE BLANK DOROTHY E, BLOOD General Clerical ARTHUR BOOTH lr . ,Q Q 1'CL,x X MARY BOUCHARD General Clerical BOB BOWEN Mathematics WILFRIED BOYD Industrial Arts ELDON BREDESON General Clerical VERA BROTI-IERTON Social Science BETTY BROWN HELEN BREWER General Clerical Social Science KENNETH BROWN ETHEL BROWN Home Economics ROBERT BROWN lndqstrial Arts mf Mathematics PATRICIA BROWN General Clerical ,. , f V' IH?

BASEBALL NE ot the mo-st traditional American games is baseball, originated in America by an American tor Americans. In the briet century it has swept trom alley teams to national leagues. Hoover is well repre- sented in this sport by a team that has, through its personal ettort and that ot its coach, Mr. John Perry, achieved an exceptionally high reputa- tion tor skill, stamina, and sportsmanship. Eight returning lettermen turned out tor the team, Ray Boone, Bob Stevenson, Jim Belasco, Don Schmidt, Tommy Jones, Paul Helder, John Long, and Art Spahr. These boys have carried the red and white colors to victory in numerous encounters with strong rival teams. Juniors who made the team were Don Parker, John Swezey, and Bobby Haddock: Clark Higgins, Gus Gesler, Tom Parker, Don Smith, Billy Sulli- van, and Reuben Basada were the sophomores who tought tor Hoover. Lavier Lokke managed the team under Coach Perry. The schools who met our team on the diamond were San Bernardino, Grossmont, Sweetwater, Escondido, Marines, San Diego, Long Beach, Covina, and the U. S. C. Freshmen. A high percentage ot wins was maintained tor the season by the hard tighting Cardinal team. Constant practicing, a large number ot non- league games, and a tine morale among team members account tor the team's record. 83 row: Miles, Chisholm, Moyer, IMorse, D G b Avelclson, O'Keete, L. Wagner, Peterson. Third row: Mr. Carr, Erwine, Sexton, Haning, J, Davis, Weber, l-lillier. VARSITY TRACK l-lE sport that requires the most all around skill and strength probably comes under the heading ot track. l-lours ot ettort, practice, strain go into every event. Races, hurdles, high jumps, pole vaults, and shot put all come under this head. These all are under the personal supervisio-n ot Coach Lawrence Carr. The returning Iettermen this year were Jack Kaiser, high jump and high hurdle: Emmett Marshall, broad jump and high hurdle: Bob O'Keete, pole vault: Bill Garber, mile: Jim Morgan, quarter mile and sprints: and To-m Davis, quarter mile. Other outstanding men were Ted Jacobs, shot put: Willie Steele, high and broad jump and high hurdles: Bill Kissel, high jump: l-lerbert Swenson, sprints: Jay l-leaton, pole vault: Jim l-lanley, sprints: Kenneth Moyer, quarter mile: Wayne Wagner, mile: Lloyd Wagner, mile: Colin Reilly, mile: Ross Wovrkman, low hurdles: and Jack Weseloh, low hurdles. The tirst part ot the season was devoted to meets with Metropolitan League schools. l-luntington Beach, San Diego, and the State Frosh were next on the list. The Coast League tinals were completed by a match with Long Beach and San Diego l-ligh Schools. l-loover's excellent record in the long series ot meets was undoubtedly due to the strength, skill, and untailing perseverance ot her track team. 84 First row, left to right: Nelling, Booker, Ha- ley, l-lankins, Davis, BI T Id Cgle. oom ie , Ratty, Nunnery. ec- ond row: Wright, Edelbrock, Dick, Rich, Kantor, Nellans, Boyd.

' C TRACK SMALL group ot versatile men made one ot the strongest track squads in l-loover's history. One ot the best victories ot the year was scored when they downed a strong San Diego team to take the meet. The members ot this squad shoulgl develop in their various events, there- by assuring the Red and White varsity track team ot the 'Future some tine material. Outstanding men were Jimmy Reading, sprint, hurdle, and broad jump: Nate Steele, sprints and high jump: Charles McKee, hurdle and shot put: Roy Everingham, pole vault, and Arnold Margulis, the 660.

CROSS COUNTRY 87 GIRLS' OR one hour each day Hoover girls don a neat gym uniform of black and white and indulge in relaxation of the muscles as well as of the vocal cords. With increased facilities, including the new courts and the gymnasium completed last year, interest in girls' sports has grown greatly. Regular gym periods featured basketball, volleyball, speedball, field hockey, and softball. Special classes, which were too popular to accommodate all of the girls interested, were conducted in drill, tennis, tumbling, folk dancing, clog and character dancing, and co-rrective physical education. Under the direction of Mrs. Mildred Stan- ley, the drill team has been one of l-loover's most outstanding organizations for several years. Nelda Smith of the February class and Beatrice North, of the June class, were captains this year. Along with the drill team, Miss Geneva Upp's tumbling team performed at many school assemblies and foo-tball games. These agile acrobats were outfitted in white shirts, shoes, and stock- ings, with contrasting red shorts. 88 ' SPORTS Novice racket wielders met sixth period every day to practice their game, and to receive instruction from Miss Lena Petersen, tennis coach. Shirley Roriclc won the title ot girls' tennis champion tor the second suc- cessive year, having wo-n the annual girls' tennis tournament.

JANUARY CLASS PLAY H think l hear my wite calling mel sputtered Johnny Doria to an oil-stock salesman. ln the mid-year class play, Take My Advice, Johnny, as Jcseph Weaver, provoked the most laughs. Three pertormances ot the comedy were given on the evenings ot November 28, 29, and 30, at the Roosevelt Auditorium. The plot ot the play centered around the antics ot the eccentric Weaver Family. Jim l-lolton, as the love-sick seventeen-year-old Bud Weaver, provided the romantic interest through his adoration ot the siren, Marella Scotte, enacted by Maryan l-lopkinson. To make matters worse, Bud had a mother, portrayed by Willa Brown, who believed in the power ot numbers, and a tather hilariously interpreted by Johnny Doria, who was the victim ot all oil-stock salesmen. Virginia Ewing played Bud's stage- struck sister, Ann Weaver. The parents' problem was to prove to their son, Bud, that Marella Scotte, who was seven years his elder, did not really love him. Tom Fitz- gerald, as Bradley Clement, Bud's English protessor, tried to solve the tamily's problems: and the results kept the audience laughing throughout the entire play. Other seniors who added Tun to the comedy were Bud lsham as Jim Thayer, a high-pressure oil-salesman, and Phillip Peterson as Kerry Van Kind, a product ot l-lollywood. Take My Advice was staged and produced by C. Gerald l-lasty, assisted by Virginia l-lalligan, Senior A Play Manager. 96 First row, left to right: Stuart, O'Brien, Williams, Clevenger.

JUNE CLASS PLA ll l-IAT A LIFE, a three-act comedy by Clifford Goldsmith, was presented March 25, 26, 27, 28 and 29 in the Roosevelt Audi- torium. The l-loover Senior Class of June, l94I, presentation, which marlced the play's first appearance on the west coast, featured Scotty Williams as l-lenry Aldrich, popular radio and Broadway character. The scene of the action was in the office of Mr. Bradley llienneth Brownl, principal of Central l-ligh School. When l-lenry's mother told him that he must receive the highest grade in a history test in order to take Barbara Pearson lPat O'Brienl to the Spring Dance, the incorrigible l-lenry copied the paper of George Bigelow lJohn Burnettl. This got him into difficulty with Mr. Patterson lClinton Yantissl, his history teacher, and subsequent happenings resulted in his almost being suspended from school. Romantic interest was supplied by the principal's secretary, Miss Shea llvlildred Clevengerl, and Mr. Nelson lGeorge lVlcGuirel, vice-princi- pal of Central l-ligh. Gther characters were played by l-lelen Stuart, Lois Ashby, June Souther, Jennie Byfield, Judy Cosio, Betty Mantor, Peggy Pingry, Willard Nichols, John King and Quenten Goldstein.

Commanded by Captain David Newman and Lieutenants Robert Babenic and Robert l-louston, the unit proved itselt capable ot holding to a high average in the year's work. The June class saw an R.0.T. C. Military Science course ottered both as a solid and a gym credit tor the tirst time in the battalion's history. Under the new plan, a student may take both R. 0. T. C. and gym, receiving a solid credit tor the military science course. The student cannot, however, get a solid credit tor R. O. T. C. without taking gym. Thus, it is planned to relieve some ot the strain brought on by the tests and indoor worl4 essential to the training. The entire unit marched in the Armistice Day parade, May 30. This annual event is participated in by one or more R. O. T. C. units every year, usually alternating. This year the l-loover unit gave a splendid performance. The three companies and the Drum Corps, together, made one ot the highlights ot the military parade. II6 Company Company OMMANDED by Captain George Kelsch and Lieutenants Robert Yenawine, l-lenry Peters, and Bill Cumbie, Company F shared the unprecedented growth of the battalion. Under the command of Captain Tanner this company last year toolc first place in the Company close order competition. I As l predicted in I94O, we had a successful competition, and I am in hopes we shall duplicate it this year, said Sergeant E. l.. Spellmeyer. l-loover took six o-ut of eight awards, all firsts. These included first and second company and first and second platoon awards. The Federal Inspection is an important event on the annual R. O. T. C. calendar. This is a yearly inspection by one or more high ranking officers from the regular army. The schools who attain a certain rating, an ex- ceptionally high one. are given the rating of honor school. Last year's cadets placed high in every branch of training and would have received the rating if it hadn't been for poor facilities. This year with the new armory, the cadets hope to win the coveted award. Il7 AST year Company G to-olc second place in the Company competition. This year it is under the command ot Captain Albert Couvrette and Lieutenants Edgar Fleenor, Pierce Poynter, and John Engelstad. Los Sabres is a club tor the otticers ot l-loover's battalion. This semester's otticers were Captain Dick Wood, presidentg Captain Albert Couvrette, vice-presidentg Captain George Kelsch, secretary-treasurer: and Lieutenant William Cumbie, sergeant-at-arms. Los Sabres held its initiation at Bill Olmstead's cabin in Cuyamaca. With Battalion Commander Quenten Goldstein as chairman, a court martial board was an innovation ot the Spring semester. The board, composed ot all otticers holding the ranlc ot captain or above, was organ- ized to attempt to give more justice to the individual cadet and at the same time increase the discipline and military courtesy. The board tol- lowed the court martial ordinances entorced in the regular army. Witnesses tor both the plaintitt and detendant were allowed and encouraged. The only restriction placed upon the detendant was that the defense counsel had to be a Lieutenant. lI8 Company E. l.. Spellmeyer Sergeant, D.E.M.L. U. S.
