1940 SCROLL Herbert Hoover High School Glendale, California THEME Life is a song—in spite of the thousand worries which besiege it, life can be a gay affair. The troubles, although they seem important, can be lessened if thrust into the background once in a while so that one can concentrate on some of the more enjoyable aspects of living. The high-school student as he prepares for his future must decide upon a career. If the student is ambitious, he will point toward a goal which he some day may achieve. However, this young boy or girl must also form a philosophy. If he or she is working for success, this question must be decided: Should a person stick closely to his chosen path without stopping along the way for any sort of enjoyment, or should he slow down to appreciate the good things of life and to observe his fellow man? To make the most out of life it is necessary to keep on the job, but the world is filled with happiness that has been overlooked by those very ambitious persons who have had no time for personal pleasure. If such individuals could see that they were missing the whole of life, then perhaps they would slow down and really enjoy living. This book brings the students the happy memories of a year in school—a year in which much was accomplished, yet enjoyment was not forgotten. Here is an endeavor to point out that life has been a song for the students during the last year. DEDICATION To the Music Department of Herbert Hoover High School, which has distinguished itself and this institution by its outstanding accomplishments, the 1940 edition of the Scroll'' is dedicated. Under the able direction and leadership of Mrs. Florence Hoover Rogers and Mr. George Shochat the musical organizations of this school have achieved fame and recognition. Mrs. Rogers, a graduate of Pomona College and post graduate of Northwestern and Southern California Universities, came to Hoover High as head of the Music Department in 1929. One year later Mr. Shochat, a graduate of the Uni- versity of Southern California, arrived at this school. Their efficient supervision and outstanding ability have given this department its sterling reputation. The Music Department has produced with outstanding success a series of annual operettas, including Pinafore, The Firefly, and The Red Mill. The Hoover Or- chestra has been awarded by the Southern California Band and Orchestra Asso- ciation the highest rating given to any high-school orchestra in the state. Furthermore it was selected to play as a demonstration group for the National Music Educators' Conference in Los Angeles in April, and six of its members were honored by being a part of the National High School Orchestra. Noted and frequently in demand by the various community, church, and civic organizations are Hoover's large choral groups and small vocal ensembles. From these, five exceptionally talented students have had the honor this year of being accepted to sing in the National High School Chorus of three hundred students. Grateful recognition is due to the achievements of the Hoover Music Department and its capable directors. MOOD MAIESTOSO ADMINISTRA TION HONOR GROUPS GRADUATES BY WILBERT WARRINE.

As president of the student body, Verne proved himself to be an outstanding leader. He will long be remembered for his sincere friendliness toward all his fellow students.

Hayhurst as one of the finds in the history of the school. The group made possible many changes in the student government of the school and was instrumental in obtaining new campus improvements. Among the most important of the Cabinet's achievements were the following: the dedication of the auditorium to the principal, including the presentation to the school of a plaque for Hayhurst Hall, and the purchase of a new motion-picture projector. Members were also partially responsible for the chartering of a train to Santa Barbara. 21 Bernard de Sousa possesses all the qualities of a true leader. Ho combines with his outstanding athletic, forensic, and scholastic ability, a winning personality and a prominent position in the social affairs of Hoover High School. Under his efficient and alert leadership the activities of the school have achieved a memorable success. 22 SECOND-SEMESTER CABINET With Bernard de Sousa at its head the second-semester Cabinet introduced sev- eral new policies for the improvement of the school. Requirements for the life pass for boys' athletics were revised to the advantage of all the students concerned. It was decided that all lettermen should have stripes above the elbows on sweaters with division designations on the letters, the size of the letters varying with the Varsity, Bee, and Cee teams. The rollroom representa- tive and assemblymen systems were put under more strict supervision so as to promote closer contact with the proceedings of the Cabinet and more orderly assemblies.

STUDENT COUNCIL With the object of aiding rather than merely reprimanding the students of Hoover High, this year's Student Council has taken great strides in improving the conduct about the campus. For any act of misconduct committed around the school, such as the defacing of school property, unnecessary noise, or leaving the grounds without permission, the student appears before this judicial body. A record of every case is made and filed by the group. 24 BOYS' LEAGUE Under the able direction of Bernard de Sousa and his Boys' League Board, the 1940 stag party was held in the boys' gym. Better than five hundred boys and their fathers attended the affair. Bob Robertson, halfback on the national champion Uni- versity of Southern California football team, gave a short talk. Blair Woolstencroft presented his hilarious bicycle and juggling act and the Los Angeles City College gym team performed for the boys. Biggest attraction of the evening was presented in the cafeteria where the boys filled themselves to capacity with the “eats provided for that purpose. The second-semester league, although it did not have as much to do as the first, presented a very entertaining assembly which featured Frank Wycoff, world champion sprint man.

GIRLS' LEAGUE I The first job of the Girls' League Board in the fall was the annual Stunt Party. Under the direction of Jo Nell Rogers, president, and her board, Witches' Tales'' was chosen as a theme for the party. Black cats and witches on broomsticks reigned on the night of October 19 in the girls' gym. Stunts were presented by the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. In charge of their respective acts were Jane Seaton, Marilyn Connor, and Marilyn Jaccard. The highlights of the evening were faculty and Girls' League Board stunts. The Hoo- dale Game,'' which was the title of the teachers' presentation, was arranged by Miss Josephine Hervey. The board stunt written in verse by Jeanne Krotz, welfare chairman, also included a number by Miss Frances E. Jackson. The Grand March and the prize fox-trot were part of the evening program. The theme prize was awarded to Peggy Walton, Dorothe Criplean, Jean Criplean, Vir- ginia Tibbitts, and Barbara Schmidt. The prize for the most original costume was received by Frances Ashton. Winners of the fox-trot were Mary Storms and June Marquenie. Board members who aided Jo Nell in making the affair a success were Mildred Craven, Jeanne Krotz, Frances Fox, Helen Campbell, Eleanor Ferguson, Modeste Da Costa, Patty Wiese, Margaret Farner, Peggy Gulley, Hazel Mullins, and Jane Harris. Charity work for the holidays was begun with an afternoon dance sponsored by the Girls' League which had as the admission price foods to be taken to the Chil- dren's Hospital for their Thanksgiving celebration. In charge of the arrangements were Jo Nell and Hazel Mullins, philanthropic chairman; Christmas baskets were later given out by the league. The semi-annual convention of the Girls' League Federation of California and Arizona held at San Bernardino was attended by Jo Nell Rogers and Patty Wiese, secretary. 26 GIRLS' LEAGUE II A Deck of Cards was the theme for the annual spring party on February 16, which was under the direction of Jean Welch, president, and her board. The theme was carried out in the decorations and dance programs. The members of each class were designated as a suit of cards. Greater friendship among the girls was the purpose of the party. In charge of many of the arrangements was Norma Quack- enbush, friendship chairman. Assisting Jean and Norma were Kathryn Durran, Wilburta Love, Jean McClure, Virginia Erickson, Martha Jane Rice, Nita Alvarado, Roberta Ellsworth, Helen Ignatius, Betty Bundgard, Mignon Gratiot, and Patty Wiese. The convention this semester was held at the South Gate, Huntington Park, and Bell High Schools and was attended by Jean Welch and Jean McClure, publicity chairman. The Mothers' and Daughters' Tea, which has become an annual affair, was held May 10 in the student cafeteria. The program, enjoyed by both the mothers and their daughters, included several musical numbers and clothes modeled by students of the Home Economics Department. Arrangements for the tea were under the direction of Patty Wiese, program chairman. A field trip to the Children's Hospital by the board was made on May 15. The girls took with them food donations which had been selected by Virginia Erickson, philanthropic chairman. GIRLS' LEAGUE BOARD II-Top Cluro, Quackenbush, Wioso. Th rotary).

Under the guidance of Mr. Walter Barragar, Miss Frances Mains, Miss Dorothy Wells, and Mr. Erwin Howlett, faculty advisers, the class succeeded socially, athletically, and scholastically. Upon entering the portals of Hoover High School in the earlier part of 1937, the first act accomplished by the then Sophomore Class was the election of its officers. Chosen at that time to lead their class were Verne West, president; John Jessup, vice president; Mary Ann Nyman, secretary; and Barbara Senseman, treasurer. One of the class' earliest souvenirs of achievement was the placement of the gallant sophomore duck in the trophy case of the main hall for winning the student- body drive in 1937. Election of new officers in the fall of 1937 placed John Jessup as president, while Harry Griffin was named vice president. Also in the fall Harold Staub was elected to the post of sophomore representative on Max Green's Cabinet. Barbara Senseman, along with Ardes Burns and Mary Storms, was chosen by the student body to do the song leading for the school at all athletic events. Again, in the fall of 1938, new officers were named for the Class of 1940. At this time, those elected were Shigeo Okada, vice president; and Jim Sturman, sec- retary. Wayne Bentley was selected to represent the class on Art Hall's Cabinet. On the Girls' League Boards of Cassie Groom and Louise Bacon served six girls of this class. They were Margaret Wickham, Rachel Voelker, Helen Campbell, Frances Fox, Margaret Farner, and Jo Nell Rogers. On the Boys' League Boards of the same year Verne West served as vice president and later president. On his and Art Wells' boards were John Jessup and Shigeo Okada. Assisting in bringing out the 1939 Scroll were Mary Jo Henderson, Arnold Nevis, Harry Griffin, Marianne MacNair, and Adele Baldridge. The fall of 1939 found Verne West as the president of the entire student body. Serving with him on the Cabinet were Carl Cummings, Jack Linn, Jo Nell Rogers, Janet Vandenburgh, Wayne Bent- ley, Charles Kelly, Dave McIntyre, Fred Turrill, and John Eggleston.

SUMMER '40 CLASS HISTORY Newspapers for the years 1937 through 1940 headlined the Austrian Putsch, Gone with the Wind ' boogie-woogie piano, Lawrence's cyclotron, Grapes of Wrath, Hedy Lamarr, Joe Louis, the Czechoslovakian Blitzkrieg, Chamberlain's umbrella, Walt Disney, Spam, the scuttling of the Graf Spee, Confucius Sayings, and finally the second edition of the World War. But . . . contemporaneously with this hodge-podge of jumbled impressions another history evolved, little noted but long remembered in the hearts of the 357 seniors who were to graduate on June 12, 1940. Under the able guidance of the sponsors, Mr. Walter Barragar, Mr. Erwin Howlett, Miss Dorothy Wells, and Miss Frances Mains, this truly outstanding class achieved a high mark in leadership, scholarship, and sportsmanship and will leave a memor- able record hard to surpass. Entering as sophomores, the group early asserted itself. Bernard de Sousa was chosen secretary and Kenneth Burkett, treasurer of the class. Jim Budge served on the Cabinet as sophomore representative. As juniors, the Summer '40 students elected George Rowland to the presidency and again voted Kenneth Burkett into his position as treasurer. The second semester Bernard de Sousa took over George's duties; Mort Hill served as vice president; June Marquenie, secretary; George Rowland, treasurer. During this year, Herman Thomas and Bernard de Sousa were elected to the Cabinet, holding the positions of junior representative and yell king respectively. Bud Sandison, as assistant cheer leader, aided in keeping school spirit at a high pitch. Three girls and one boy were chosen for the league boards: Modeste Da Costa, vice president; Mignon Gratiot, treasurer; with Mildred Corwin and Bernard de Sousa, chairmen, completing the list. George Rowland helped in keeping law and order by serving on the Student Council. The B-ll Girls' Service Club contained Peggy Gulley, Margaret Kauffmann, Shir- ley Adams, Jeannette Eames, Eleanor Ferguson, Norma Quackenbush, Wilburta Love, Virginia Shepherd, and Winifred Gilchrist. George Rowland was in the Boys' Service Club. 40 Continued on Pago 57 SUMMER '40 GRADUATES JEFFERY LEIGH ABELL—Public Address System; Amateur Radio Club 2, President; Rollroom Representative.

Continued Irom Page 40 SUMMER '40 HISTORY The Public Address System was maintained by Wayne Warrington, technician, and Russell Ross, junior announcer. Joe Smyth, with his superior speaking ability, won the Interclass Panel on Shall we Abolish Football? Those who worked on the Purple Press' Staff were Adele Baldridge and June Mock—and on the Scroll Staff were Luise Matthews and Georgia Brown. One of the biggest jobs of the year was the choice of a junior sweater. With the aid of Jo Ann Shimer, Kenneth Burkett, and Bernard de Sousa, the Class of 1940 selected a green-ribbed slip-on or coat-style model with attractive white emblems and leather buttons. Under a Campus Moon, the theme chosen for the Junior Prom, provided the background for the class party. The decorations, supervised by Regina Coles, suggested a college dance with colorful streamers, a flirtation walk, a Bruin Bear and a Tommy Trojan, and, lastly, a campus moon. Adding to the success of the dance was Art Whiting and his orchestra. Another noteworthy event of 1939 was the organization of the Bible Club, which now has approximately ninety members. Charles Loggerwell founded the associa- tion with the aid of Mrs. Florence Rogers, who conducts the weekly meetings, and Mr. Erwin Howlett, who takes charge of the monthly gatherings. Its purpose is to familiarize the students with Biblical stories and characters. Enthusiastic coopera- tion has been with the club from the start, and its future promises to be as successful as its past. When it was again time to elect officers, the Class of 1940, now seniors, chose Joe Smyth, president; James Gabriel, vice president; Doris McCarthy, secretary; and Lincoln Norrbom, treasurer. Those who served on the Cabinet during the B-12 semester were Bernard de Sousa, Joe Smyth, and Rena Atkinson. Bernard de Sousa was chosen Boys' League president in the spring semester. The Girls' and Boys' Leagues elected Jean Welch and Jim Miller as their presidents in the fall. Jean's board included Kathryn Durran, vice president; Mignon Gratiot, treasurer; and Patricia Wiese, Martha Jane Rice, Norma Quackenbush, Virginia Erickson, Jean McClure, and Wilburta Love, chairmen. Patricia Wiese was chosen secretary of the G.A.A. Board. In the A-12 semester Bernard de Sousa was elected president of the student body. His Cabinet included Jeanne Krotz, Eleanor Ferguson, Modeste Da Costa, Wayne Warrington, Wilburta Love, Jim Miller, Jean Welch, Rolen Bradley, and Jim St. John.

Students who took part in the Interclass Oratorical Contest were Joe Smyth, senior; Richard Oftedal, junior; and Wesley Seymour, sophomore. The winner was Joe Smyth. Mr. Harold Brewster coached the speakers. The officers last semester were president, Arnold Nevis; vice president, Joanna Durham; secretary, Nita Alvarado; and treasurer, Wayne Warrington. This semester's officers were president, Joe Smyth; vice president, Ed Johnson; secretary, Nita Alvarado; and treasurer, Joanna Durham. PUBLIC ADDRESS Through the addition of valuable public address equipment during the past two semesters, Hoover students have been able to enjoy much better broadcasts. A loudspeaker, a gift of Warner Brothers Studios, has been mounted in the rafters of the girls' gym to be used for school dances. The public address equipment is operated by Mr. Randall Froom, with the assist- ance of four student technicians: Dick Woolsey, Frank Hardcastle, Dave Hooker, and Leigh Abell. USHERS Under the direction of Miss Marion Pierce, adviser, and Patty Wiese, head usher, the group of girls selected as ushers have ably assisted in the auditorium during many student activities. The girls with their white-sweatered uniforms were chosen to serve in this capacity because of their scholarship record, but the service is entirely voluntary on the part of the girls. There are ten active ushers and ten alternate ushers. Top Row: Patty Wiese (head usher), Elizabeth Corrigan, Martha Parrish, Jane Goodspeed, Marjorie Webster. Second Row: Eleanor Zaich, Eleanor Ferguson, Shirley Martin, Erica Friodholor, Dorothy Stovors. SWEET AND LOW I CLASS OF '41 Top Row: Currier (president I), Burns (vice president I). Rowley (treasurer I). Second Row: Johnson (presidont II), Hilts (vico president II), Alvarado (secretary I, II), Hallam (treasurer II). Election of officers was the first step taken by the juniors to organize their class in the fall. Selected as leaders for the semester—Warren Currier, president; Gil Burns, vice president; Nita Alvarado, secretary; and Clayton Rowley, treasurer— ably superintended over class activities. Leaders of the second semester followed their excellent example in guiding the class. The officers were Ed Johnson, presi- dent; Jack Hilts, vice president; Nita Alvarado, secretary; and Marian Hallam, treasurer. Representing the Junior Class on the Cabinet the first semester, Dwight Lane was succeeded by Steve Prussing, who served in this capacity the second semester. The high-point of the year for this class was the traditional Junior Prom. Commit- tee heads were Dave Smith, publicity; Bill Bauer, door; Anita Kistler, prize; Baline Finks, program; Jeanne Anderson and Betty McHugh, decorations; and Kenneth Lanley, orchestra. The Class of '41, capably advised by Mr. Fred Wilson, Miss Margaret Calhoun, Miss Gertrude Skain, and Mr. Alfred Loumena, this year by ability and enthusiasm proved its right to upperclass standing. 70 CLASSES OF '42-'43 Ably headed by President Charles Peters, the winter sophomores, sponsored by Mrs. Linnie Young and Mr. Wesley Hooper, had a successful year. Other officers were vice president, Jane Seaton; secretary, Virginia Zerman; and treasurer, Jack Pearson. Fred Patterson, one of the outstanding boys of the class, took his place on the Cabinet as '42's representative by an overwhelming majority. Relieving the preceding winter officers, Bill Kennedy assumed the duties of president, with Ed Spafford, vice president; Jane Seaton, secretary; and Ed Chandler, treasurer, as his assistants. Among a large number of nominees, Virginia Zerman and Elmer Rob- inson vied for the position of Cabinet representative. In a close race, Virginia nosed out her opponent only by a slight margin. The Class of '43 moved into the spotlight with the selection of David Grey as president, Charlyne McDuell as vice president, Dulcie Morris as secretary, and Bob Humphreys as treasurer. With Mr. Harley Haden and Mrs. Jeannette Miller as sponsors, the members got off to a fine start. Despite having only one portion of their group in the school, members of the class forged ahead, taking part in school activities. L Kennedy (prosidont), Spafford (vico president), Seaton (secretary). Grey (president), McDuell (vico president), Morris (secretary), Humphreys (troasuror). 71 CLASSES WINTER '41 GIRLS—Back Row: Bundgard, Cassou. Gidden.

During the first semester, various assemblies, the Christmas program, and the Thanksgiving tableau were enriched with renditions by the orchestra. The second semester was highlighted by six members of the group being se- lected to participate in the National High School Orchestra for the National Music Educators' Conference held in Los Angeles. Those chosen were Kathryn Durran, Emma Grimes, Alta Grimes, Dorothe Criplean, Evan Vail, and Bob Hunter from the orchestra, and Herbert Eggleston from the band. In addition, the Hoover Or- chestra as a whole was selected to play for a demonstration at this conference.

One of the most successful offered by the combined group was the Christmas assembly. Tableaux representing the vocal renditions were made possible by the Art Department. Because of its popularity this assembly was also presented at the Presbyterian Church and at Toll Junior High. The club's next appearance together was at the P.-T.A. Council, a gathering of all chapters. Following this was a presentation at the Festival of Arts in the Civic Auditorium on May 1.

A CAPPELLA CHOIR In its second year as a regular class, the A Cappella Choir successfully main- tained its reputation. During the year the group made a great hit while perform- ing before Glendale civic organizations and the Hoover High School Student Body. As did the other musical organizations, the A Cappella Choir participated in the very successful Christmas assembly. Margaret Long and Janice Wood were the respective presidents for the two semesters. Other office holders were Mercedes Villasenor and Martha Parish, vice presidents; Margaret Greslie and Connie Orlet, secretary-treasurers; and Marilyn Morrill and Eleanore Doderlein, librarians.

For a social, the group dined at Los Monitos, a Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles. During the Christmas meeting Ruskin Medrano told how Christmas is celebrated in Cuba, and Nick Ojeda explained the Yuletide holidays of Mexico. At another gathering Miss Laura Marietta, Glendale High School teacher, gave a talk about Mexico illustrated with movies and colored slides taken on her summer tour. The officers for the first and second semesters respectively were Paulette Meunier and Bill Johnson, president; Ruth Zimmerman and Bob Lawrence, vice president; and Sally Preston and Nadine Worthington, secretary-treasurer. In order to hold membership in this club, a student must have completed one semester of Spanish. SYMPHONY CLUB The Symphony Club, the only one known to exist in a high school, was founded this year by a group of Hoover music lovers. Each passing week found more and more interested, and there is now a membership of sixty. Betty Bundgard, one of the club founders, was elected the first president. Steve Prussing was made secretary, and Joanna Durham, program chairman. Those pre- siding over the second-semester activities were Steve Prussing, president; Alta Grimes, secretary-treasurer, and Doretta Mae Gschwind, program chairman. Meet- ings were held during the lunch hour on Fridays at which time favorite records were played. LIBRARY STAFF The student library assistants give one hour a day to service in the school library, in return for which they receive from twelve to eighteen service points a semester. Their duties include the circulation of books, shelving, straightening shelves, mend- ing and processing books. This year they have been able to give more efficient service than before, as monthly meetings have been held for instruction in using library tools. Assistants are required to have passing grades in order to remain on the staff. A Christmas tea and a spring picnic are the two social events enjoyed annually by the staff.

Southern Pacific's 2447 obligingly serves as a background for the Tornado song-leading trio, Barbara Senseman, Mary Storms and June Marquenie. who lead a song rally before the Santa Barbara game. The cheer-jerking trio consisting of Paul Racine, Price MacNair, and Johnny Hamlin look unusually blum as they are reminiscent over the fateful cross-town feud. 110 At the football banquet at the end of the season, Wayne Bentley was named the most valuable man by his team- mates. Pictures one and three show Bentley in action. VARSITY FOOTBALL With the prospect of a good season the Hoover horde dug its cleats into the turf and started practice with the determination of an Armistice Day speaker. Eight re- turning lettermen and a bunch of Bee boys up from the ranks filled the Presidents' roster to overflowing. Having less than two weeks of practice under its helmet, the Tornado covered itself with glory and every- thing else with dust when it made the West's lone tally against the P.J.C. Frosh in the P.-T.A. football circus. The West won 7 to 6. Next, sworn to avenge the defeat of last year, the Purples journeyed to Tucson on the longest jaunt of the season. However, troubled by a lack of co- operation, the Republicans failed to click and lost the fracas 15 to 0. In the first Rosebowl encounter Hoover, San Diego, had trouble with Louis Guzman who scored both touchdowns, the second on a beautiful 35-yard scamper. Hoover won (or lost?) 13 to 7. The following Friday the Foothill League elections were held. The Democrats of Wilson came out with Maine and Vermont; the Republicans, who tallied the votes, on the long end of a 6-to-0 count. It was in this tourney that Bert Hulsebus, Hoover's hero of the day, got his name as a passer. Although the Purples had the edge all the way, they couldn't quite push the pelota into pay dirt until Hulsebus, an unknown Continued on Page 175 VARSITY FOOTBALL—Back Row: West, Loose, Hubley, J.

BEE FOOTBALL Endowed with none of the success that followed the Cyclone's two brothers, the Whirlwind and the Tornado, Coach Vic Cameron's Bee squad chalked up only one victory during the whole season and that was not a league tilt. The Los Angeles High Romans, with a 6-to-0 count, started the ball rolling that was to leave the Cyclones prostrate the rest of the season. Thereafter Wilson stepped in and gave the ball an extra push to the tune of 26 to 0, the worst beating that a Cameron-coached team has ever taken. captain iiM sturman Turning the tables for the first and last time, the Cy- clones overcame the Long Beach Poly Jackrabbits with an overwhelming 19-to-0 win. Harry Engelke, a boy who hadn't been used much, proved invaluable. Le Roy Brown, although inexperienced, took over Johnny Jessup's quarterback place in the Alhambra tilt quite ably. However, the Moorlets eked out a 6-to-0 win. Then came the game over which the boys are still hanging their heads. Cisco, Cisco, and Taylor of Glendale made a fine showing this massacre; the Blasters blasted out 19 points to the Cyclones' 0. Putting up a brave fight in the last game of the year, the Cyclones were finally overcome 12 to 6 by a slightly superior Whittier squad. Those receiving initials were as follows: George Rowland, Doug Balthis, and Ta- kashi Yamada, ends; Guy Rosebrook, Stan Stone, Bob Lee, Jim Gugerty, and Dick Van Cleve, tackles; Captain Jim Sturman, Dick Salsbury, Jim Strand, and Jack Henry, guards; Ed Johnson, center; Johnny Jessup, George Alexander, and Le Roy Brown, quarterbacks; Harry Engelke, Saburo Kurihara, and Chuck Logerwell, halfbacks; Dick Welch, Raoul Guzman, and Ken Burkett, fullbacks, and Managers Ken Wright and Allen Westover.

CEE FOOTBALL Although handicapped by having no returning lettermen, the Whirlwind foot- ball squad came out in second place in the Foothill League under the capable coaching of Mentor Clint Crow. The Cees suffered only one league setback, most of their power being furnished by their dynamic captain, Dick Cunningham. In the first practice game, the tiny Tornadoes traveled to Fullerton where the Redskins held the green Whirlwinds to a scoreless tie. The Purples were a little ragged in spots, but they showed the potentialities of a strong outfit. Maynard Freeman pulled the Woodrow Wilson game out of the fire when he romped 50 yards for what proved to be the only score of the 6-to-0 encounter. In a game much easier than the score might indicate, the small boys played their best ball of the season, while downing the Moorlets 6 to 0. Hov ever, Glendale Fire- crackers proved to be the nemesis of the home boys in the intracity contest. Statistics showed the teams equal, but the 13-to-0 score proved the 'cross-towners superior. An intercepted pass and a three-yard plunge sealed the doom of the Whirlwinds. The crowning and last game of the season was with Whittier, who was vanquished by a 13-to-7 tally. Elected captain just before the game, Cunningham showed that his teammates hadn't erred when he nearly single- handedly drove down the field to add the winning marker to complete the team's comeback. The Crowmen to receive letters as recognition of their ability were Jerome Quick, Raymond Wheeler, Bill Hanks, and Fred Overman, ends; Bill Tilden, and Bob Middleton, tackles; Anton Hoel, Jack Landin, and Larry Irwin, guards; Henry Gabriel and Harvey Abrahamson, centers; Clayton Rowley, quarterback; Cunningham and James Gautier, fullbacks; Freeman and John Nichols, half- backs; and Jack Ashton and Dale Kephart, managers. 114 CAPTAIN DICK CUNNINGHAM VARSITY BASKETBALL—Back Row: Leslie, Cedwallader, Burns, Mil'.er, Racino, Nattross, Snyder, Watts, Thompson (Coach). Front Row: Racine, Bradley, Hamilton, Hill, Currier, Fullerton. VARSITY BASKETBALL Although it won only one league game, the Hoover basketball team took care of more than its share of practice opponents. Whittier and Glendale were the only schools who could claim a victory of more than three points over Coach Porter Thompson's boys. P.J.C. Frosh and Burbank were both laid along the way at the beginning of the practice semester by counts of 33 to 19 and 23 to 21, but the locals received some- what of a drubbing from Beverly Hills. This was offset by two victories over Tuc- son, 26 to 23 and 30 to 17, and another one over Phoenix. Hoover lost its first league opener in five years to Woodrow Wilson. It was a close tussle, but the Bears came through with a 31-to-28 win. The second defeat came at the hands of Alhambra. The Moors proved to be a bit too big, and the Tor- nadoes lost 22 to 19. With Mort Hill scoring exactly one-half of the 36 points made by Hoover, the locals went down 45 to 36 before Glendale's Dynamiters. The next contest, although a non-league, ended in the same manner. Herbert's lads were nipped 28 to 26. This was not too much of a disgrace as the Tigers from Pasadena went on to top their league and win the Southern California minor play-off. Hoover did itself proud in the second round by holding Wilson to a 33-to-29 vic- tory. The Bears were runners-up for league championship, and a lot of teamwork was needed to hold them to this small margin. A great celebration took place in the President's mansion following the Alhambra game. The local boys had made good. They trounced the Moors 36 to 35. In the final games of the season, the Tor- nadoes we re downed by Whittier and Glendale 36 to 28 and 33 to 30, respectively. Lettermen on the squad were Warren Currier, Gil Burns, Mort Hill, Webster Jes- sup, Bob Hamilton, Carlisle Barringer, Rolen Bradley, Earl Fullerton, and John Racine. Managers John Jessup, Bill Allen, and Bill Leslie also received numerals. 115 Varsity basketball lettermen pose lor Charles Rich- ardson's bleary-eyed camera. Top Row: Hamilton, Burns, Captain Hill.

BEE BASKETBALL Led by Captain Stan DuBois and Mentor Porter Thompson, the Cyclones were barely nosed out for the loop championship. Starting fast, the Purples fared well in their practice season, winning three out of four games. Losing 27 to 21 to the Wilson Cubs in the initial encounter for the loop flag, the Purples dropped below the standard they had set. Harold Dill, a scrappy guard, was a standout in the Alhambra tussle, the second straight league defeat for the locals, which ended 21 to 20. After a see-saw first quarter the Cyclones went on to upset the highly touted Blaster quintet by a 33-to-23 tally. Jack Powles, the flashy center, accounted for fifteen of the locals' points. Don Sandison, Dill, and Ralph Mitchell turned in bang-up games at the guard spots. The Whittier Reds provided material for the home towners' next victory. Powles was again high-point man with eleven out of the 38 points piled up against the Cardinals' 32 to his credit. Beginning the second round of league competition, the Purples wreaked revenge on the Cubs while outscoring them 28 to 15. Bob Olsen, ace forward, accounted for six of the middleweights' digits. Alhambra was the next outfit to feel the wrath of the Cyclones' secondround drive. The Moors succumbed to a last quarter on- slaught of the net by Bob Dunlap, which led to the Bees' 25-to-22 victory. The Blasters, thought to be a cinch, turned out to be a stumbling block for the Purples in their second fracas. Although Olsen split the hoop for nine ducats, his efforts proved to be of no avail, as the Glendalians came out on the long end of a 17-to-15 count. Whittier, another squad which had tasted defeat in the first round, turned and topped the Cyclones by a 36-to-32 tally. The following boys were rewarded with Purple monograms: Bob Dunlap, Bob Olsen, Jack Powles, Don Sandison, Harold Dill, Stan DuBois, Ralph Mitchell, Evan Vail, and Manager Bill Allen. 117 CEE BASKETBALL Although they were somewhat handicapped by not having a regular floor on which to practice, the Hoover Whirlwinds, coached by Pop Crow, made a re- spectable showing this year. The midgets won four and lost four games, beating each team in a league that included Wilson, Alhambra, Glendale, and Whittier. The two games that incited the most interest and provided the most thrills were the pair of tussles with the Firecrackers from Glendale. The first fracas went into an overtime with the score at 24 apiece. The extra session was almost over when Prentice, hawk-eyed center for Glendale, let go with a swisher from about 25 feet out to win the game 26 to 24. In the second encounter the score was close all the way until Dick Sunderland, local forward, put the light- ies in front by one point. This basket was to be the margin of a 20-to-19 victory for Hoover. The casaba-contest that made Whirlwind rooters the happiest was the one with Whittier. Crow's lighties won this by eight points, with Keith Olsen going on a rampage. The remarkable thing about the quintet was the fact that when the first round ended it was sitting on the bottom step of the cellar. At the start of the second se- mester, opponents saw a new five, for Coach Crow had put in the necessary spark. His aggregation swept the division without losing a game. This coup landed them in third place. Outstanding for the lightweight bunch were Keith Olsen, who was also high-point man, Jack Brack, and Bill Duke. Other lettermen were Gordon Erick- son, Bill Snyder, Bill Sunderland, Ford Atkinson, and Fred Patterson. CEE BASKETBALL—Back Row: Gratrix, Mace, Creoth, Swanborg, Young, Theobald, Crow (Coach).

STARS OF CAPTAIN DICK THORNHILL VARSITY BASEBALL With potentialities of a strong squad, Coach Vic Cameron turned out a better-than-average outfit that tied for second in the loop standing and won two games out of three from Glendale to retain the city championship for another year. With five returning lettermen and several other boys with Jayvee experience the home hiders went into the opening game with the Junior Col- lege reserve. Although Marty Krug, Leroy Brown, and Jim Smith played great ball, the locals were downed by a 6-to-4 score. Hoover was a slugging team when it met and defeated Hollywood High 13 to 4 in its second practice encounter. Gaining Loft to Right: Smith, Borkenhcgor Pol8tor, Mann, Salsbury, Hulsobus revenge for an early defeat the Cameronmen downed the Jaycee regulars 5 to 3 in a game at Griffith Park. The league opener pitted the locals against the strong Woodrow Wilson nine, which later won the league championship. Although Andy Murdock and Du Bois did heavy stick work the locals were swamped by a superior mound and hitting staff 8 to 3. The 'cross-towners copped the first of the intracity series 3 to 1, mean- while sewing up the News-Press Trophy. Jim Poole, Glendale chucker, picked three men off base who would have scored later; and that great pitching to first base caused the downfall of the locals. Murdock was the big gun of the Hoover attack, but his efforts proved fruitless. The Tornadoes got back on the board when they topped the Whittier Redbirds 3 to 1. Dick Finch's homer was the longest of the year, sailing to the wall on top of the center field bleachers. Ernie Polster pitched great ball and Mouse Du Bois turned in his usual bang-up game for the locals. Alhambra was the next victim of the home boys early season onslaught and were nipped 2 to 1 because of Herm Itskowitz's two-hit pitching. While fattening their batting averages the purples swarmed over the Mark Keppel Aztecs 15 to 0. Finch, Fentiman, Captain Dick Thornhill, and Murdock led the hit brigade, each man batting at least .666 for the day. Woodrow Wilson proved to be the nemesis of the Purples for the second straight time 7 to 4. That defeat blew Hoover's chances of winning the league, and again big stick work on the part of the beach boys spelled defeat for the Glen wood Loaders. It took nine innings for the locals to down the Dynamiters in the second intracity encounter. Du Bois' double in the seventh frame tied the game up until a winning VARSITY BASEBALL—Back Row: Cameron (Coach). Polster. Hulsobus, Finch, Du Bois, Itskowitz, Krug.

Itskowitz's beautiful peg from left field saved the home boys and sent the game into extra innings. Whittier turned by the home enders by a terrific 17-to-2 score in the second meeting, and hitting was the only outstanding point of the Tornadoes' attack. Dick Smith pitched no hit ball in downing Alhambra 3 to 1 while Finch was getting three hits for three turns at bat. The Tornadoes capped their season by downing Glendale by a 6-to-3 score behind Polster's six-hit performance. JUNIOR VARSITY BASEBALL This year's junior varsity baseball squad was not as potentially strong as last year's outfit, and as no games had been played up to the deadline there was no line on the players. Only two returning lettermen, Leroy Brown and Burton Cosloy, were on the team. There was no practice ground for the Jayvee, so the schedule had to be put off until the varsity season was completed. Bob Dunlap, Brown, Alex Hardy, and Bob Russel were dropped from the varsity outfit to bolster the junior circuit, and their power was expected to increase the team's league chances. 123 125 VARSITY TRACK—Back Row: Currier (Manager), Kier.

VARSITY TRACK Coach Vic Francy again coached the Tornado trackmen to a Foothill League vic- tory, the third time in a row that the Tornado has come out on top. Going through the season for the first time with a completely clean slate, the Twister first blew out Covina's wick. Running true to form the Purples clipped the Colts 66 to 42. Fol- lowing this victory the Presidents next plagued the Samohi scanty-pants with a 66l 2-to-46l 2 score. Captain Stan Stone bagged his favorite event, the 880. Next came a series of firsts. First was the first league meet. Second was Mark Keppel's first league debut in track. And last, but not first, the Tornado scored all of the firsts to snatch the meet with a full symphony orchestra background playing the tune, 108 to 5. The Whittier Dickiebirds provided the first real league competition. However, the purple pantied lads blew out a 72 l 6-to-40 5 6 triumph. Whizzer Bob Trede broke the tape in his two favorite events, the 100 and the furlong. With Leo La Goy hopping, stepping, and jumping a record 45 feet 3' 2 inches. Bob Trede dash- ing off a 9.9 century and a 22.2 half lap, and Jim Budge taking his usual first in the shot, the Presidents swept through the cross-town Fizzlers' ranks with a sensa- tional 72-to-41 victory. The Bears from Wilson gave the Cooper-clothed boys the only scare of the season coming within one and one-third points of winning the meet. The relay told the tale. Hoover won it and with it the meet 57 1 6 to 55 5 6. Leather-lungers Stan Stone and Dick Woolsey grabbed respective firsts in the 880 and the mile. Art Wolfle, with the outcome of the meet hanging on a third and the relay, put on an extra push and took a third in the mile to help toward the victory. 126 Top Row: Wyckofl wins. Sprina donee.

BEE TRACK With last year's championship Cee track team growing into a Bee squad, Coach Vic Francy's hopes soared as he visioned another league-leading bunch. The Cyclones opened their practice season with a 74-to-16 win over the Covina lighties. The next trial performance for the middleweights came when they downed Santa Monica 90 to 16. In the first league meet of the year Hoover clipped Mark Keppel, with the Aztecs earning only thirteen points. Whittier fell before the mighty Bee aggregation by a score of 54l 2 to 40 2- Glendale blasted the Cyclones in the annual duel, mainly because a lot of Bee men were moved down from the varsity squad. The outcome of this contest was 64 to 34. One of the outstanding races of the day was the 120- yard low hurdles. Harry Shafer, a home-school product, broke the meet record with the good time of 13.7. The middleweights traveled to the town by the sea, Long Beach, for their next meet. They returned home victorious in a 60-to-35 massacre.

CEE TRACK Finishing near the top, the mighty midgets took a third against tough league competition. The Francy-coached team first shouldered its guns against the Covina lads, taking them 40' 2 to 31 2- In the next tiff the Cyclones came out on the short end of a 40-to-37 score with Santa Monica proving to be just a little too good. However, Mickey Middleton garnered high-point honors, winnings both the 660 and the 120 lows. Captain Harry Stanton grabbed his usual first in the broad jump. The mighty midgets swamped the Mark Keppel Aztecs in the league opener clubbing them, accompanied by a tinkle of bells, 59' 2 to l?1 . Freeman won both the 100 and the lows. Cunningham put the iron ball ten inches better than 36 feet. Continuing their victorious streak, the Whirlwinds next took a win from Whittier's little Auks, scoring a total of 58' 2 points to the opposition's 18! 2- Glendale provided the first league loss for the breeze boys, the Firecrackers win- ning 50 to 27. Next came the second loss of the season. The tromping was done by Wilson. Dick Cunningham again took the shot with a better-than-47 feet heave. 129 GOLF TEAM—Back Row: Fehz, Norrbom, Erickson, Moore, Van Cleve, V ilson (Coach). Front Row: B. Moore, Savage, Noil. GOLF Named as one of the strongest squads in years, the Hoover linksmen twice de- feated the 'cross-town golfers to win the city championship in easy style to high- light the season. Mr. Fred Wilson served as coach. In unfamiliar territory, the locals were slaughtered by Woodrow Wilson, Long Beach, in a tough loop encounter 35 to 1. The Hoover linksmen next met the Whittier Cardinals on the Oakmont fairways and emerged badly tattered with only a tie. Thereafter the Purples defeated the Dynamen 27 to 9. The results were as follows: captain Gordon erickson Erickson beat MacCracken 5 to 1; Dick Moore handled Jack Hildreth by the same count; Verne Savage and Ray Feliz, playing third and fourth men respectively, both took six points; Bender Moore beat Glendale's Feedler 5 to 1; George Neil lost a close one to Chuck Reed 0 to 6. The cleaners followed up that win until a 22- to-14 upheaval over South Pasadena. Vastly im- proved, the Purples made up for a 35-to-l shellack- ing and hauled the Wilson divoteers an 18-to-18 tie on the Oakmont fairways. The second Glen- dale game turned out to be another walk away for Erickson and company. Erickson, Dick Moore and Savage each blanked their opponents 6 to 0. Norrbom got a tie in the match with Casey, Bender Moore blasted Feedler 5 to 1, and Ray Feliz topped Tiberton 4 to 2. 130 TENNIS At the start of tennis year, the prospects for any- thing but a cellar team loomed big. Woodrow Wilson and Alhambra were two of the toughest schools to come into the league. Furthermore Hoover won only one practice match. All fears of President Wilson's boys were dis- pelled in the first session. The Tornadoes downed the Bruins by a score of 7 to 4. The traditional rivals from across town invaded Herbert's domain for the next contest, and the locals were halted 9 to 2. The menu said that Whittier was to travel Glendaleward for the next joust. The Cardinals made a nice dish 7 to 4. Mark Keppel, another addition to the league, was swept off its feet 7 to 4, the lucky count of Hoover. Alhambra royally entertained the locals and then slapped its ears down 11 to 0. As the second course was brought, it was discovered that the Tornado fisher- men were in third place. This predicament was remedied by another 7-to-4 win over Wilson, which brought Hoover to a tie for second place with Glendale. A great rejoicing followed the second Dynamiter tilt. For the first time in nine years, the lads from the right side'' beat the boys from over there. The margin of victory was slight, 6 to 5, but it was a victory. Whittier again fell before Hoover, but this time the score was 9 to 2. Lettermen were Joe Ignatius, Bob Jones, Chester Burger, Herman Thomas, Wayne Warrington, Roger Burt, Bob Knauf, Charles Peters, Glen Peters, and George Sakata, manager.

Front Row: Gould, Wood, Owen, Nattress. SWIMMING When the second semester began the future of any sort of swimming team was dim. No one could be found in the faculty who had the time to spare to coach the group of willing youngsters. This did not, however, stop the progressive spirit of Joe Large, a returning letter- man. A training place was obtained at the new Jaycee swimming pool and, with the rest of the fishmen, Joe began the training which was needed. There could be no competitive meets between any schools in the league, but an arrangement was made with Glendale Junior College and S. C. Freshmen to have a third party in one of their tussles. These schools proved to be superior to Hoover in the events except diving. Bob Olsen, Glendale Junior Champion, did his part in the contest. Bob was one of the divers at the Los Angeles Aquatic Club last year and gave up this position in order to perform for the locals. In the foothill league finals Hoover scored 46 points to obtain second place, being surpassed only by Whittier with 71 points. Glendale placed third with 14 points. Ralph Reese was high-point man, gaining second in the 50-yard free style and in the individual medley race. Furthermore, most of the boys qualified for the Southern California meet. As the boys who were out for the squad were few in number, it is possible to name all of them. They were Joe Large, Ken Flavell, Joe Reese, Nick Owen, Homer Gould, Jack Brant, Bob Olsen, Dave Wood, Bill Benning, and Bob James. 132 Socond-somoster yell- kings, Johny Hamlin, Johnny Racino, and Bob Olson, gazo anticipatingly down tho track as they wait for a victorious Hoo- vor finish.

C. The Reserve Officers Training Corps of Herbert Hoover High School completed its fifth successful year with an enrollment reaching 142, the highest so far. These young men ably carried on the sacred traditions of the unit, and their accomplish- ments were many under the direction of Major C. W. Feagin, professor of Military Science cS Tactics for the Glendale Unified School District, and Lt. G. L. Brittingham, Bn. instructor for the Hoover unit. The annual Military Ball was held in the girls' gym of Hoover this year. The ball was the biggest and best, with Lee Yanders and his band furnishing the music for dancing. Spring maneuvers were conducted in Elizabeth Lake Canyon. Fifty-five cadets participated for four days. In conjunction with the maneuvers this year, there was fourteen miles of hiking with full pack equipment, but aside from a few blisters, the boys came through in excellent shape. Once again the beach was selected as a site for the barbecue, with 125 boys and girls expected to attend this event. With plenty of food and a good time for everyone, when the sun faded away on June 8, another successful barbecue was chalked up to the credit of the Hoover R.O.T.C. Hoover created more than a mild sensation during the half time of the Glendale- Hoover football game when the Girls' Drill Team was introduced to the public; 176 girls participated in the drill, which was stupendous. Trained by the R.O. boys, the girls now can have a regular girls' drill period. The Girls' Rifle Team gave a good account of itself, winning three out of five matches with the girls' team from Pasadena Junior College and one out of one from San Pedro High. Davis Agriculture College defeated the girls by only one point. The Boys' Rifle Team ended up in tenth place in the Ninth Corps Area Matches, which qualified the group for the National Matches and gave the school three- quarters of a point towards the coveted Honor School rating.

The intracity drill competition was held at Hoover this year, and while Glendale High walked off with this honor, the boys doubt if they will win it again. Cadet Henry LeFebvre was the Commander of the prize platoon. Major John Hedenberg was the cadet major for the first semester, and Don Caman for the spring semester. These two embryonic generals contributed much towards the complete and thorough success of the year. The honorary majors for the year were Mary Alice Jones, first semester, and Wilburta Love, second semester. Honor- 146 ary captains were Mary Farman, Milly Richardson, Adele Baldridge, and Elsie Kirkhuff. The theoretical class, conducted Tuesdays and Fridays first period by Lt. Britting- ham, proved to be a worthy class. During this period a more comprehensive study is given to the intricacies of modern warfare, and those who were enrolled during these periods acquired some very important knowledge. The annual company football game was a slam up affair, with D Company com- ing out on top to the tune of 13 to 3. The three points were garnered by C Com- pany through the accuracy of Pvt. Bob Hedenberg's educated toe. The R.O.T.C. assembly was held the Thursday before National Army Day. Par- Continued on Page 149 COMPANY D.

THE WAY YOU LOOK TONIGHT Botto Biggs, gifted with unusual beauty and a dignified bearing, is well fitted for the role of Fiesta Queen. Her sweet and gracious manner, along with her other royal characteristics, make her deserving of this honor. Goorgo Rowland's active participation in social and athletic affairs, combined with a one-hundred per cent personality, makes him more than worthy of escorting Her Majesty. Bernard de Sousa, possessing scholastic and forensic ability, good looks, and a pleasing personality, has set new standards of efficiency for ensuing leaders. Rolen Bradley is known the school over for his friendliness and willingness to be of assistance. His spontaneous good humor and congeniality have made him many lasting friends. June Marquenie possesses every desirable quality. Dancing ability, good looks, and vitality are but a few that make her well known about the campus. Jim Millor. through his bashful and unassuming personality, has become an outstanding figure in school life. His clean-cut appearance and affabil- ity have carried him high in the esti- mation of all who know him. Jean McClure is the typical high- school-girl. Friendliness, coupled with her charming appearance and refreshing ways, makes her a favorite among both boys and girls. Kathryn Durran. through her out- standing musical ability and attrac- tiveness, rates high in campus popu- larity. Her continuous smile and cheerfulness gathers admirers wher- ever she appears. w Back Row: Zerman, do Sousa, MacNair, Barragor, Dunn, Barringer. Front Row: M. Jones, McClure, Shimer, Brown, Fox. SENIOR PROM A Winter Wonderland was the scene depicted in this year's Senior Prom. Huge silver trees and other decorations done in ice-blue and white carried out the winter theme. The committee heads were Jo Ann Shimer, programs; Georgia Brown, publicity; Jean McClure, decorations; Bernard de Sousa, orchestra; Frances Fox, theme; and Marietta Jones, wraps. Each of the above gave his or her time and worked days to make the dance the success it was. Mr. Walter Barragar, Mr. Erwin Howlett, Miss Frances Mains, Miss Dorothy Wells, class advisers, proved to be a great help in the huge undertaking. Music was provided by Art Whiting and his band, who were well accepted by the students. 156 SENIOR PROM COUPLES—Undor the glittoring stars, the couples who attended tho Sonior Prom, danced at the Winter Wonderland.

Enthu- siasm and hard work were with the committees from the start, but under the able guidance of Miss Margaret Calhoun, they put on a prom which was one of the most outstanding in the history of Hoover High School. A new feature of the dance was the novel way in which the prize fox trot was judged. A secret committee composed of both teachers and students observed the dancers, chose the outstanding couples, and invited them to enter the contest which was held later on in the evening. Against the background of stunning Hawaiian decorations, which were super- vised by Betty McHugh and Jeanne Anderson, over two hundred light-hearted couples swayed to the rhythms of Lyle Smith's popular swing orchestra. Kenneth Lanley was head of the orchestra committee; Blaine Finks, program; Bill Bauer, door; Dave Smith, publicity and Anita Kistler, prizes.

Having an unusually large number of members, the Girls' Service Club during the senior year contained Eleanor Ferguson, vice president; Virginia Shepherd, secretary; and Peggy Gulley, Margaret Kauffmann, Norma Quackenbush, Shirley Adams, Wilburta Love, Harriet Sobers, and Winifred Gilchrist. Second-semester officers were Vir- ginia Shepherd, president; Eleanor Ferguson, vice president; Peggy Gulley, secre- tary; and Jeannette Eames, treasurer. New members were Maxine Barker, Dorothe Criplean, Modeste Da Costa, Jean Welch, and Jeanne Krotz. Aiding Rolen Bradley in Student Council work were Bud Sandison and Charles Logerwell. Wayne Warrington and Leigh Abell took care of school broadcasts as announcer and technician respectively. Joe Smyth again won the Interclass Panel in his senior year and was elected president of the U.S.C. Speech Contest. Wayne Warrington placed first, locally, in the American Legion Contest, and in the closely matched group gathered from all parts of the Los Angeles area, he placed third. The 1940 Scroll was ably published by Jeanne Krotz, assistant editor; Ben Small, art editor; and Glen Peters, Clayton Rowley, Luise Matthews, Milly Edwards, Eleanor Ferguson, Peggy McCall, and Corinne Padgett. The Purple Press was issued by Jeanne Krotz, editor, Anne Werner, Milly Edwards, June Mock, Georgia Brown, Luise Matthews, Eleanor Ferguson, and Jean McClure. The members of the second- semester staff were Glen Peters, Lucy Largey, Ross Hunt, and Joe Rose. Surrounded by a blaze of colored balloons, streamers, and frosty Christmas trees, the Class of 1940 held its Senior Prom, the theme of which was Winter Wonder- land. The attractive decorations were handled by Jean McClure and her committee; Art Whiting again supplied the music. The Senior Class achieved a high record in scholarship. Six students—Pat Con- nor, Eleanor Ferguson, June Tomich, Jim St. John, Ray Scott, and Wayne Warrington —were awarded C.S.F. pins for five semesters of superior scholastic rating. Phil Babel , John Dustin , Herman Thomas , John Hedenberg, Marcella Callahan, and Claire Curnutt were awarded novitiate pins. Wayne Warrington was elected vice president of Chapter Nine of the C.S.F. James Gabriel, Lincoln Norrbom, George Rowland, Bill Wyckoff, Jim Budge, and Mort Hill led the field in boys' athletics. Outstanding in girls' sports were Dorothe Criplean, Hazel Hooker, Peggy Gulley, Jean Welch, and Norma Quackenbush. The Music and Art Departments also had their share of honor students. Dorothe Criplean, Alta Grimes, and Kathryn Durran were selected to play in the National High School Orchestra, while Betty De Long and Harriet Bartholomew were chosen to sing in the National High School Choir. Frank Irwin, president of the Art Club, and Loraine Coleson were awarded certificates from the Fine Arts Division of the San Francisco Exposition for their artistic talents. John Hamlin and Paul Racine, yell leaders, Mary Storms and June Marquenie, song leaders, urged Hoover sportsmen on to victory with excellent routines. In the much discussed choice of king and queen candidates for the annual Fiesta, the boys finally chose June Marquenie, Kathryn Durran, Jean McClure, and Betty Biggs; and the girls selected Jim Miller, Rolen Bradley, George Rowland, and Bernard de Sousa. The graduating seniors have left many bright pages in the records of Hoover High School. From now on they will contribute to society and the world in which they go forth to take their places. 169 ♦These students were eligible for C.S.F. pins if they attained Scholarship Society standards one more semester.

On the trip to Santa Barbara the squad was accompanied on board train by more than seven hundred rooters. The boys played one of the toughest games of their careers. However, they held one of the two best teams in Southern California to 13 points. The Dons' conversion was made by Gus Pinoli, who kicks in his bare feet. The fracas ended with the Republicans on the nil end of a 13-to-0 score. The next game was fought out with the other of the two toughest Southern California teams, Alhambra. Again Hoover had the distinction of giving the Moors one of the mightiest battles that they had had all year. Captain Wingert is credited with stopping one of the greatest backs in Southern Cal history, John Petrovitch. The Republicans' ground attack was superior to the Moors' as Hoover made twelve first downs to Alhambra's seven. Again, as in the Santa Barbara game, it was the Purples' weak pass defense that cost them the game. Blue and gold was the favorite color scheme as Alhambra nosed Hoover out 31 to 13. Entering the game as favorites, Hoover prepared to give its traditional rival, Glendale, the beating it had been promising since 'way back when. The Tornado, failing to blow out even the Dynamiters' fuse, blew nothing more than themselves over backwards. Glendale gained a total of 201 yards from scrimmage to Hoover's 5. The most valuable man, Wayne Bentley, saved the Tornadoes from worse defeat by kicking the Presidents out of several unfortunate circumstances. Needless to say,s Hoover lost 7 to 0. Hoover met up with the second unique kicker of the season. In Santa Barbara it was Gus Pinoli, the barefoot boy; from Glendale it was Sumner Brown who kicked through with a pair of tennis shoes. To make up for their defeat at the hands of Glendale the Purples left the Whittier field red—with the Cardinal's feathers. Hoover, in slicing the meat, came back for three seven-point helpings during the Thanksgiving Day feast. Verne West, Dick Finch, Louis Guzman, and Wayne Bentley all starred. According to the usual Thanks- giving Day custom, the bird was left holding the dressing to the tune of 21 to 0. At the annual Football Banquet at which Hobbs Adams and Hoover's Max Green were honored guests twenty-five footballers received their letters. They were Cap- tain Ralph Wingert, Shig Okada, Jim Dunn, Chuck Trowbridge, Paul Miller, and Joe Ramos, ends; Jim Budge, Ben Leese, Jack Leavengood, and Paul Lackey, tackles; Fred Zerman, Harold Staub, George Nigro, and Bob Lyans, guards; Lincoln Norrbom and Ernie Polster, centers; Louis Guzman, Bert Hulsebus, and Verne West, quarter- backs; Wayne Bentley, Dick Finch, Dick Thomas, and George Sanders, halfbacks; Jack Smith and Bob Wolf, fullbacks, and managers Cliff Needham, Alfred Rea, and Forrest Torbron. The fact that Hoover reached a place second only to that of the Alhambra Southern Cal champs can be attributed to the coaching of Messrs. Gerry Clement and Wes Hooper. After the last game was over, the squad got together and elected the boy who had been the most valuable to the team—Wayne Bentley. 175 GAS STOVE £ WATER HEATER HOSPITAL 5128 San Fernando Road Glendale ★ Dealer for New Buck Ranges and Heaters WE CLEAN AND REPAIR RANGES Citrus 2-8703 COSMO -- ROXY ATWATER ★ Glendale's Independent Family Theatres TYPEWRITERS AND ADDING MACHINES All Makes SOLD - RENTED - REPAIRED Terms as low as 10c per day ☆ GLENDALE TYPEWRITER EXCHANGE 120 SOUTH BRAND BOULEVARD • Citrus 2-5523 Congratulations from . . .

WHEN YOU PATRONIZE THEM, PLEASE MENTION THEIR AD IN THE 1940 SCROLL 196 A CKNO WLEDGMENTS A decade has passed since Hoover High School and the Scroll'' first came into existence. This year the staff has endeavored to surpass all previous attempts to portray student life, activities, and scholastic achievements. Fitting is the theme, Life is a Song,'' and the dedication to the Music Department, for the successes of this department typify the growth and prowess of Hoover High. A sales record was made during the Scroll'' campaign when approximately 1100 copies were sold in one week, marking the commencement of a brilliant second decade. Indications were that the order for yearbooks would be greater than any in Hoover history. Not only have the journalism students aided in the making of this book, but the figure sketching, and painting and composition classes have helped in the design- ing of the section plates under the supervision of Miss Bertha Foster and Miss Marian Grey, members of the art faculty. Art students responsible for the decorative contents pages were Wilbert Warriner, maiestoso; Fumiko Yamada, allegro; and Allan Willey, scherzo. Bonnie Jean Mal- colm made the cover, and Fumiko Yamada created the end sheet design. Ben Small devised the musical pattern for the section pages. Section-plate pictures and photographs of the candidates for fiesta queen and escort were taken by Tom Smith, S'35 alumnus. Serving as executive members of the Scroll'' staff, under the leadership of Dave McIntyre, editor, were the following students: Jeanne Krotz and Helen Ignatius, assistant editors; Myra Sinclair, managing editor; and Jean McClure, senior appointments. The members of the editorial staff include Eleanor Ferguson, class history; Bill White, activities; Marian Hallam, honorary groups; Milly Jane Edwards, dances; Luise Matthews, activities; Dave Smith, sports editor; Glen Peters and Clayton Rowley, sports; Corinne Padgett and Peggy McCall, typing. Members of the art staff are Ben Small, editor; Fumiko Yamada, Bonnie Jean Malcolm, and Luise Matthews. Photographers were Bill Benway and Charles Richardson. Members on the business staff were Marietta Jones, circulation, and Bob Knauf and Bob Dewar, ad solicitors. Ad solicitors, who though not appointed to the staff helped to make this book financially possible, were as follows: Betty Everett, Virginia Erickson, Leona Cassou, Maryfrances Board, Jane Eden, Helen Richeson, Betty Forde, and Earl McKenney. The 1940 Scroll'' has a new adviser, Mrs. Marian Bums. She replaces Mr. Ercil Adams, English instructor and sponsor of the Purple Press,'' who acted as adviser for the first decade. With Mr. Adams' assistance, Mrs. Burns assumed the responsi- bilities and, with generous and untiring efforts, brought to fulfillment this superlative 1940 edition. Other faculty members to whom credit is due are Mr. Chester Sanderson, who supervised student photography; Miss Ruth Starr and Miss Ellen Applegate, whose students did typing and mimeographing; Mr. William Schirmer, who instructed the ad solicitors; Mr. John Usilton whose printshop provided tickets and posters; and Mrs. Florence Rogers, whose students suggested the song titles. Mrs. Alice Schuman, as head of the student bank, gave invaluable assistance. Individual pictures of graduates and members of honor groups were taken by Maxine Studio. Cuts were made by the Glendale Photo-Engravers. Printing was done by the Glendale Printers. Covers were supplied by Henderson Trade Bindery. 197 KSKsanr:;;.-. • iHilhiaUrvrizzsrv ' :-:iH;v-: a •
