J -M THE GREEN AND WHITE INGLEWOOD HIGH SCHOOL 1930 DOROTHY A. PETERSON Editor-in-Chief TED L. KINNEY Business Manager HE _ . ¥UE)ENT or THE ■NCi_CWCC)I) Foreword A lone Indian squatted by the glowing watch fire, guarding those who slept. The scarlet flames leapt toward his outstretched palm, and out of their depths grew a glorious vision of things that were yet to he. Before his wondering eyes a distant column of marching men, shadows of the future, grew out of the fiery heart of the flickering fiames. Each was preparing the way for the next, each in turn assuming the guardianship of the priceless jewel of civilization. As the dusty column slowly wended its way to the golden tips of the flames, the sound of trudging feet grew louder. He watched the column pass from the blazing fire tips out to the distant spares that lit the sXy and then vanished in the lingering twilight ... A tall, dus y warrior, clad in glittering armor and carrying the flag of Spain, coming up from his galleon by the shore, led on hy the lure of adventure to explore and conquer the great unknown ... A colorfid, bravely lighthearted band of people, bringing with them romance, music, and laughter from the Old World, glorious contributions to civilization ... A bent and humbled figure, worn and tired but glorious in the fulfillment of service to mankind ... A tanned, hardy adventurer, wearied by hardships but eeping faith with the coming generations . . . Lastly, a group of fearless, fran young people eagerly marching forward to do their part for the advancement of civilization . . . All this the lone Sentinel foresaw in the watch fire. Bewildered, he boused his head, and the fire burned to embers. So the Green and White staff for 1930 has tried to grasp and commemorate within the pages of this, our Silver Anniversary annual, the visions, the loyalty, the courage, and the faith of these Sentinels of the past. We have tried to ma e this annual one you will always enjoy and love for the memories it will bring bac to you in later years. May it bring to you all the happy recollections which we have tried to put into its pages. The Indian Sentind — courageous, loyal, up- right, and trustworthy, the guardian of his age — has always been an inspiration to us. So we have christened ourselves the Sentiyxels, the guardians of the honor and traditions of our school . . . And may we always prove worthy of our ideal, the Indian Sentinel, in the future as we have in the past . . . It is our duty as good Sentinels to guard and watch over the treasures — the ideais — of our school so that our visions and dreams for the future generations may become realities.

He came to uncover new treasures — and he moved civilization forward . . . He prepared the way for those to follow., that they might find happiness in learn ' ing. Under his leadership the nowledge of the world was broadened, so that all might benefit . . . But only the far-seeing follow in the footsteps of the Explorer; others are too blind to grasp the glory of his vision. The Administration building was the first of the present group to be built. It was completed in 1908, the year of Inglewood High School ' s first graduation. It stood as the only building on the campus until 1914, when four new build ' ings were added. the campus The Qreen and White (INGLEWOOD HIGH SCHOOL HYMN) By Marvin Hatley, ' 25 and Alene Hatley, ' 26 To-night tve are assembled Beneath the Qreen and White Whose honor and whose glory To all a beacon light; We know that she will guide us As Life ' s road we plod, And now we offer from our shrine A prayer to Qod. twenty twenty ' one twenty ' two twenty-three twentyfour twenty ' five twenty-six twenty-seven The class of 1908, numbering five, was the first to be graduated from Ingle- wood High School.

As we look back, we see some things very distinctly, as if an electric torch were flashed upon them, but others we see as with a dim lantern. Our attention is called to a time four years ago when three hundred or more freshmen shyly but eagerly entered the wide and friendly doors of Inglewood High School ready to start on what seemed to them a long, long journey. As the first few days grew into weeks and the weeks into months, these novices lost their shyness and gathered confidence in themselves and in the school which they soon began to call their own. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, seemed to be their motto, for by the time they were sophomores they had entered into everything with zest and spirit. So interesting was their sophomore year that all too quickly it passed, and a new year had arrived, bringing with it both work and play, into which these energetic students entered heart and soul. The flight of each succeeding year seemed to be fleeter than that of the preceding one. During these three years the class of Summer 1930 was represented in all the activities of the school — athletics, debating, the Scholarship Society, and the various other organizations. And now, here we are in our senior year, our record gradually nearing completion. The end to which we looked forward so eagerly four years ago is here, but the joy of its accomplishment is tempered by the sadness of leaving the friends and the scenes which these years have made dear to us. We could not leave without expressing our appreciation of the help we have always had from our class teachers. Our road through high school has had its rough places, but the constant interest of Miss Prante and Mr. Yocum and of Mr. Riese, who took Mr. Yocum ' s place this semester, has helped us to pass them. They have devoted many hours to our activities and our problems, and their helpfulness has been largely responsible for our success as a class. We are sad at leaving, but with the sadness comes an anticipation of what lies ahead of us. We are resolved to be a credit to Inglewood High School and to the record which the class of Summer 1930 has made there. thirty-i EvELYNE Adams Lucille Amerman George Annis Lillian Averbook Irene Bates Vernon Altic Glenn Anderson Beulah Arrand Helen Bartlett Arthur Becker jw- -T ■- r, --• thirty-two Edith Becker Marie Belson Ruth Ellen Bird Johnnie Bladel Velvalee Borter Paul Bell Grace Benn Morrison Black RowENA Blocker Joe Bowden thirty-three Walter Bowler Margaret Briggs Clair Brown Dorothy Brainard Gladys Briley Richard Brown 1 William Burns Jack Carlon Roy Campbell Paul Casey thirty-four George Chambers Mildred Chase Georgia Chatterton David Cochran Thomas Combs Maurice Conkling Gordon Christy Helen Colter Charles Comstock William Cook thirty-five Morris Cooley Marie Coulombe Annie Cutbirth Margaret Deming Helen Coulombe Lillian Coyle David Deem Edwin Dewar Margaret DeYoung Stanley Dicken thirty-six May Diffley Doris D ' Ooge Gordon Dressen Marion Ek Robert Eunson Esther Dixon Marjorie Doyle Richard DuPuy Esther Eklund Ethel Ferguson thirty ' Seven Jeff Ff.rris Lillian Files Winifred Fillmore Beulah Finn Louise Fleming Leone Flory Lucille Forncrook Helen Folkerson •iJ vT- Seldon Ford Arthur Fluhrer thirtyeight Evelyn Frakes Jack Freiman Frank Fuerstinger Mabel Gardner Florine Garrett Lester Fraser William French Howard Gaines Martha Gardner Doris Jean Gillaspie thirty ' : E mT jB ' res ai riT ipifcrv rrr n -.

Leader Kenneth Nichols Louise Grissom Pianist Dorothy Callison Three and one-half years ago a band of young Crusaders set out on a pilgrimage of great achievement. The paths were many, but only one interested this group — that leading to success. The journey has passed quickly but not without hardships, for the road to the shrine of Knowledge contains hills of Difficulty and sloughs of Despondency. The Crusaders have climbed the hills with an everlasting spirit, and every turn of the wheel brings them nearer their goal. The Winter Class of 1951 feels that the Crusade, which is almost at an end, has been a successful one, made possible only by the Guides, our Class Teachers, without whose kindly help we would have faltered many times and perhaps have fallen by the wayside. The 12B ' s are well represented on the various athletic teams of the school and have always taken an active part in Student Body and club affairs and other activities. With a steady swmg and an open hrow We have tramped t ie ways together, But we ' re clasping hands at the crossroads now In the Fiend ' s own night for weather; And whether we bleed or whether we smile In the leagues that iie before us. The ways of life are many a mile And the dar of Fate is o ' er us. Here ' s luc ! And a cheer for the dar before us! fifty two JS1T li? ' Tir««nr5  George Abbott Helen Anderson Dominica Arico Elaine Averill Virginia Baum Mary Albany Marcus Andrews Robert Armstrong Amerigo Baldo Pearl Brown .c .„, j ,,,,- . fijtythree William Calkins RoBLRT Campbell Erma Corbell Violet Cox Jean Dana Dorothy Callison Harold Church Adelbert Cortrite Fred Crogan Rosa Delgadillo fiftyfour Helen Diltz Carlton Emery Reba Finney Edna Fischer Frances Fitzgerald Frederick Flye Artice Fox William Galpin John Gault Betty Gibson jiftyfiv Edward Gibson Ross GiLHOySEN Ella Greenfield lii UKU ' X Herman Haeerstich Lee Hake Arthur Happoldt Marion Hathaway Elmer Hawley Wilda Heiller Alma Henke fiftysix Balilla lORlO Virginia Jex Charles Karnow Betty Kirkwood Alice Lehne Helen Jay Edith Johnson Angie Ketchum Arthur Lee Lillian Leslie fifty-seven Eva Miller Angellin Nelson WiLLARD Livingston Florence Marshall ' Hazel McCormick Walter Moser Arthur Nelson iftv-eiglit Kenneth Nichols Ruth Odell pRANcrs Parker Dorothy A.

There was nothing to distinguish them from one another, but soon the class found itself represented along many different lines. However, this representation was still quite small, and before any one reaUzed it, the year had passed. The next year the activities of the class were increased to much greater proportions. Its members were to be found in number on the athletic teams, and some made them- selves known through membership in the Scholarship Society and the various clubs, court offices. Sentinel Guard positions, orchestral work, and other school activities. The class had begun to write its name on the pages of the high school ' s history, but as yet this group of what had been awkward freshmen was still in the developing period. Another year had passed. Thus did the class of Summer 1931 develop until it has become represented in every activity on the high school calendar. Its members have served the school in responsible positions in the Student Body and the various clubs and on the athletic teams. They have been instrumental in making this year a big one for Inglewood, and we, the once ungainly youngsters, have at last become juniors. The junior year is the dividing point in a student ' s high school career. We look back longingly on the happy experiences of our first two years but look cheerfully ahead as we anticipate new joys as seniors. And, as we look back, we are conscious of a great sense of pnde in the work we have completed, satisfaction in the knowledge of work well done. But we must not look back continually; for our next year will, we know, prove the best one yet for the class of S 1931. sixtythree I f- V i ' V_ ' % IIB GIRLS IIB CLASS First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester John Harp President Eugene Myers Charles Diebold Vice-President George Morrow Lucile Green Secretary-Treasurer Terence Pewters Byron Starry Tell Leader Charles Diebold Lavilla Smith Song Leader Clarence Tinder Shirley Hazelton Pianist George Bridges CLASS TEACHERS Miss Gange Mr. Lawrence The llB ' s are feeling the first glories of being upperclassmen and are participating in many of the school activities such as athletics and opera.

Freshman A — Several of us made the Scholarship Society, and many have gone out for athletics. Not much to say except that we are going strong. Sophomore B — Having a fine time. Feeling quite important, as we are no longer Scrubs. A number of us have made letters in athletics. Some are holding offices or taking active parts in Student Body. Supporting everything that comes along. Sophomore A — Have more students in Scholarship Society than any other class. Feehng quite proud of ourselves. Had a sad thing happen to us — lost a part of our class to the new high school in Lawndale.

All right! We are now on the second year of our course at Inglewood High School. During the past year several of our boys and girls, too, have gone out for different sports — the boys for football, baseball, basketball, water-polo, swimming, and track; and the girls for baseball, volley ball, tennis, hockey, and basketball. Also we have several students in the various school societies and in other activities. At our class meetings we have a good time, because of the excellent leadership of our class teachers.

And nobody can say we aren ' t supporting Inglewood High School, either. You ' ll always see a bunch of us at every game.

Yes, but it won ' t be on top of the ground; we ' ll have to dig for it. This is the Land of Knowledge, and there is a treasure here worth more than all the gold in the world. What are those three hills in front of us? Do you suppose we ' ll have to climb them? I don ' t know, but we can find out what they are. What is this — a sign? What is written here? It says that the first hill is Service Hill, which we can all climb. The second is Athletic Hill, and the third is Scholarship Heights. Here come the rest of the Prospec- tors. I wonder which one they ' ll climb. Why, look! Some of our party are going ahead and have already started climbing the Athletic Hill, and some are just starting up Scholarship Heights. But what does the rest of the sign tell us? It says that there are four milestones to the ' Land of the Seniors. ' I wonder how many of us will get there. It ' s a pretty rough journey, but I ' m sure that effort and perseverance will get us there. seiient ' three Familiar to those who knew the High School in the days of the war was the sight of the ranks of cadets, who were drilled under Lieuten ' ant Badenoch. organizations STUDENT BODY PRESIDENTS Kenyon Smith First Semester Robert Eunson Second Semester STUDENT BODY ELECTED OFFICERS First Semester Second Semester Kenyon Smith President Robert Eunson Donald Paxton Vice-President Clair Brown Virginia Scarisbrick Girls ' Judge Marie Valerio Carlin Matson Boys ' Judge Donald Livingston Kenneth Seilheimer Auditor Kenneth Seilheimer Robert Eunson Tell Leader Charles Diebold Audrey Van Kesteren ....

STUDENT BODY CABINET SECOND SEMESTER seventy-eight STUDENT BODY GOVERNMENT Inglewood ' s student government has been a model for many of the schools in Southern California, due to its great success and efficiency. It was originated in 1926 and is patterned largely after the United States government. It consists of three depart- ments — executive, legislative and judicial. The executive department has the President of the Student Body at its head. He appoints a Cabinet, which meets once a week to discuss various matters of impor- tance to the Student Body. The legislative department has the Vice-President of the Student Body at its head. Each roll call room elects a member for the House of Representatives; as in our national government, this is a body of the people ' s choice. Here measures proposed by the Cabi- net are discussed and passed or rejected. Both the Student Body President and the Principal must sign a bill before it becomes a law. The judicial department consists of the Boys ' and Girls ' Student Body Courts. These are presided over by a boy and girl elected by the students. Here all cases are tried and just punishment given. The Sentinel Guards, under the supervision of the Chief with his Captains and Lieutenants, see that all the laws of the Student Body are obeyed. The Board of Adjustments, although not under any of the three departments, works in conjunction with the judicial department. Consisting of five students, it considers all applications for the redemption of merits and deals with each case as it sees fit. As a whole, the Student Body government of Inglewood High School is working quite efficiently. This is due greatly to the ability of those at its head and the co-opera- tion given by the students themselves.

Its meetings are presided over by the Vice- President of the Student Body. This group considers and passes various resolutions, which are either introduced by the Cabinet or suggested in the House itself. It also approves all Student Body appointments. Measures of interest to the Student Body may be suggested in the roll call rooms and brought before the House by the roll call representatives. These are thoroughly discussed, and frequently matters are referred to the roll call rooms for their opinions before votes are taken. Under the capable leadership of Donald Paxton, first semester, and Clair Brown, second semester, this body has efficiently carried on the legislative side of Student Body business. Marion Rawley served as clerk of the House the first semester and Isabell Suther- land, the second. eighty SENTINEL GUARDS The organization of the Sentinel Guards is the one on which much of the responsi- hihty of a successful student government rests. The Guards have been working very efficiently this year, and much credit is due them for the way in which school and Student Body laws have been enforced. Supervised by the Chief and his Captains and Lieutenants, all the members of this body have sacrificed their time and effort to the maintenance of order on the campus. The traffic system between periods, controlled by the Sentinel Guards, has done much to relieve the crowded condition in the halls at the passing period. This organization also takes the responsibility of the campus at the noon periods and has served efficiently at games and debates. Each officer is assigned to a noon or traffic beat under the supervision of the Lieutenants, who are responsible for the officers under them. The Guards have been very faithful and dependable in their execution of their duties. Ted Kinney was Chief the first semester and Carl O ' Gara the second. Mr. Lloyde is faculty adviser. eighty-one First Row: Fitzgerald, Hodgkins. Valeric, Cooley, Diffley, Peterson.

This court prosecutes almost all cases having to do with misdemeanors of girls. These include non-uniform, misconduct, breaking of student body laws, and various other offenses. This year the Girls Court held a mock session during a Girls ' League meeting to illustrate its court procedure. Justice to all has been the goal of the court officials, and this standard has been upheld successfully throughout the past year. eighty-two First Row: Kelso, Spaulding, Ely, Bush.

Its aim has been to allot justice to all. A mock session of court procedure was presented for both the Lions ' Club and the Rotary Club of Inglewood. In this way the merchants of Inglewood obtained an idea of the way in which school affairs are handled under the Student Body Government. eighty-three First Row: Prochaska, Miss Piciskci, Fell.

The Board meets every week, under the supervision of Miss Preisker as faculty adviser, and has achieved much toward helping the students to redeem lost merits. This Board has aided many students during the past year in clearing their records and returning to a high merit standing. The method by which a student may redeem his merits is left to the discretion of the Board. Those which have been most used during the past year are the raising of grades or a period of probation during which the applicant must receive no more demerits. The interest in the Board has grown considerably during this year, and the citizen- ship standard of many students has been raised accordingly. eighty-jour First Row: Ely, Mr. Davis, Yost.

For the past two years the committee has been under the faculty supervision of Mr. Davis. The boys are chosen for their dependability and attention to duty. At all games, contests, debates, pay assemblies and other events to which admission is charged the committee is on duty and its members should be congratu- lated on their efficient service. For the four years of his high school career Russell Griffith has been an outstanding member of this committee, having served as chairman for three years. At the time of his graduation in January of this year he was presented with a plaque as a token of the Student Body ' s appreciation of his service. Russell ' s place as chairman was taken this semester by Arnold Yost, who is filling the office very capably. eighty-five First Row: Rawley, Ross, Arico, Gibson Bartlmg. Powers.

The High Jinks proved to be a great success, and all regretted when it was time to leave. The winning class stunt was presented by the 1 lA ' s, who had also won the cup when they were 9A ' s. Prues were awarded for the prettiest, the funniest, and the most original costumes. The President and a delegate attended the Girls ' League Convention at O.xnard in May and brought back many valuable ideas for the welfare of the League.

Before that time, however the hoys had been holding meetings from time to time, presided over by the Student Body President, at which meetings speeches of interest to the boys were heard and boys scho ol affairs discussed. Then it was decided to organise formally into a Boys ' League with officers and a constitution. One of the most interesting Boys ' League meetings of the year was held during the first semester, with Lieutenant Miller from the Curtiss School of Aviation as speaker. Aside from their meetings the Boys League activities have included the sponsoring of a most enjoyable dance just before Christmas vacation and another at the Carnival. Another activity was the annual Boys ' Day, which was sponsored by the Kiwanis Club, April 24, on which day the offices of the city were held by high school boys. eighty-seven SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester May Diffley President May Diffley Marie Coulombe Vice-President Donald Geggie Faculty Advisers, Miss Preisker and Mrs. Waddingham The activities of the Scholarship Society have been varied this year and hav e been quite entertaining enough to dispel the theory that Scholarship Society members are bookworms. The Society has sponsored one pay assembly, featuring Satani the Great, and has given two assemblies for the purpose of acquainting the freshmen with the nature of this organization. Two original parties, featured by clever stunts, were given, and an enjoyable trip to the Southwest Museum and Casa de Adobe was taken by the members. The Inglewood Chapter sent delegates to the two District meetings of the Federa- tion at Redondo and Long Beach. We were also the hostess chapter at a District meeting, which proved very successful. The Indian theme, to suggest the Sentinel, was used in the decorations, music, and appointments; and Chief Standing Bear was the speaker of the evening. The annual convention of all the chapters in Southern Califor- nia was held at Catalina Island in April. Here Alberta Hansen ' s song was accepted as the official song of the Southern Region of the Federation. Those who received pins for life membership in the California Scholarship Federa- tion were as follows: Ruth Badenoch, Kathryn Barthng, Virginia Scarisbnck. and Leona Wills, of the class of W 1930; and Helen Colter, Marie Coulombe, May Diffley, Doris Jean Gillespie, Ednamae Latham, Donald Paxton, Margaret Peters, and Mary Tinder, of S 1930. eightj ' -eight BELLA MUSICA first Semester OFFICERS Second Semester June Pewters President JefF Ferris Sydney Smith Vice-President Lucille Amerman Lucille Amerman Secretary Ruth Ross Jeff Ferris Treasurer Gordon Sollenberg Pacuhy Advisers, MusiC TEACHERS Since Bella Musica has been placed on a scholarship basis, membership in the club has about doubled. At the beginning of the year Mrs. Wendland, the active adviser of the club, called the Cabinet together for the purpose of laying plans for the year ' s work. Sydney Smith, as Vice-President of the club, planned a series of most interesting pro- grams for the entire year around the general theme of national music. Practically all of the best musical talent of the school has appeared on one or another of these monthly programs. Bella Musica has sponsored one extremely successful pay assembly, presenting the Pomona College Men ' s Glee Club. After all expenses had been paid, the Club was proud to be able to contribute a substantial sum to the Green and White Fund. The annual banquet was given on December 12, with Mr. and Mrs. George M. Green, Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Reckord, Mrs. A. F. Monroe, and Mr. Peter Schweitzer as guests of honor. Another social event occurred on April 1, when new members were welcomed into the club with an April Fool ' s party, at which all sorts of foolish- ness prevailed. eighty-nine THE BLATERONIAN SOCIETY First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester Ellen Ograin Praeses Dorothy Peterson Marian Rawley Pro Praeses Frances Fitzgerald Marie Valerio Scnba Mary Helen Rule Donald Geggie Sluaestor John Williams Herbert Baus T imtius Belva Mannix Faculty Advisers, Miss Williams and Miss Gilbert One of the most interesting clubs of Inglewood High School is the Latin Club, known as the Blateronian Society. This would be very evident if you were to attend one of its rough and tumbling initiations, its fiscal banquet, or any regular meeting. The club has the enthusiastic support of approximately eighty members. Perhaps the system requiring recommended grades to join is one of the main factors toward its success. There is an almost perfect roll, as three absences in a semester will exclude a member from the club. No one wants to miss the summer banquet, for it is carried out entirely m Roman fashion. The members wear Roman costumes and partake of a real Roman meal, while a program is being presented in Roman style. ninety LOS BULLEBULLES First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester Fred Alhaugh Presidente May Flower Rixon Balilla lorio, Vice-Presidente Sybelle Lockwood Regina Haim Secretaria Dorothy Oakes Woodrow Wade Tesorero Martha Gardner Parlamentana Persis Fell Miss MacKeen Faculty Adviser Miss Bailey Los BuUebuUes, the Hustlers, well deserved their name, marking a htisy year with many interesting programs, which were presented by groups from the different Spanish classes. Among these was a beautiful Christmas pageant, a posada, presented in assembly by the members of Mrs. Waddmgham ' s JB class. The other outstanding events were the farewell party to the Seniors of the Winter Class, the sixth annual spring banquet for the Seniors of the Summer Class, and the Mexican Bazaar, sponsored by the club during that memorable affair, the Carnival. nxnetyone MEILLEUR FRANCAIS First Semester OFFICERS Reland Sherven Presidente Mary Beck Vice-Presidente Peggy Smith Secretaire ' Tresoriere . . . .

Rosa Delgadillo Founded two years ago by a group of students interested in French, Meilleur Francais has proved to he most helpful and interesting to students in the department. Its meetings are conducted in French, giving the members excellent practice in conver- sation. Under the supervision of Mr. Grain and its capable officers the club has had a most successful year. Although the limited number of students taking French neces- sarily means that the organisation is small, all its members are interested in the work of the club. ninety ' two THE SENTINEL SEARCHLIGHT First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester Leonel Mannix President Morrison Black Donald Geggie Vice-President Jack Hamilton Edna Prochaska Secretar -Trecwurer Frances Fitzgerald Faculty Advisers, HISTORY TEACHERS The History Club is divided into the World Friendship and California Sections, each studying its own phase of history in its programs. Although it is a comparatively new club, it has an overwhelming membership. The sections vie with each other to see which can produce the better programs. To be a member of either section a student must have a recommended grade and must maintain a continuous and active attendance. The California section stages programs which show the different phases of Cali- fornia history. It sponsored a trip to the Mission Play as one of its activities, and had a representation of about ninety students. This section has a pin, bearing the symbol of a bear mounted on gold. A trip around the world is the feature of the World Friendship section ' s programs this year. Each program is representative of a certain country. A Christmas party and later a social function in honor of the seniors were the most outstanding of its activities during the past year. The section is allied with the National World Friend- ship Club, and its members wear the national pin, which symboli:;es peace. ninety-three GIRLS ' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester Ruth Badenoch President Jeane Lambert Virginia Scarisbrick Vice-President Virginia Enckson Nina Schwabauer Secretary-Treasurer Jean Hodgkins Marjorie Doyle Recording Secretary Marie Valerio Faculty Adviser, Miss Cooley The Girls ' Athletic Association has been quite active during the past year and has fostered much interest in girls ' athletics. This year the practice of following the meetings with swimming parties has been established, and this additional interest has increased the attendance. A number of new members were put through the horrors of initiation early in the year. A pot luck dinner was held one evening this semester, and the girls laid aside their dignity long enough to enjoy themselves immensely. The local organization sent representatives to the two conventions, held at Hunting- ton Park and Pasadena. ninety-four BIG I CLUB Second Semester Edward Gibson . Johnnie Bladel . . . Clair Brown First Semester OFFICERS Edward Gibson President Johnnie Bladel Vice-President Clair Brown Secretary -Treasurer Faculty Adviser CoACH Badenoch The Big I Club, although it has not had many meetings because of sport practices, has done much to make the reputation of this school for good sportsmanship one of the highest. It promotes interest and enthusiam for all athletic contests and games. The club has as its members all the boys who have earned their letters in the various sports, and it is needless to say that the fellows have good times when they get together ninety-jive CRUCIBLE AND TONGS President Donald Peterson Vice ' President Dons Jean Gillespie Secretary Dorothy Thayer Treasurer Charles Staiger Facidty Adviser MiSS PiCKETT The Chemistry Club was organized last year and since then has made much progress. The present membership is limited to those making recommended grades. The members have worked hard and are very enthusiastic. There have been a number of interesting social affairs. For the Carnival in May this club put on a House of Mystery, accompanied by shocks and shivers. During the greater part of this semester the club has been working to get new members. A design for a club pin has finally been decided upon. The members are now working to arouse interest among other chemistry students and so increase the membership in the club. ninety-six THE YACHT CLUB The Yacht Cluh, consisting at the present time of about iifty members, was estab- hshed eight years ago. All boys in the woodshop department who are interested in making boats may become members. About twenty boats are built by Inglewood boys and entered in model yacht races. During the seven years in which Inglewood has participated in the Evening Herald and Rixon Cup races she has won four first-place and three second-place cups. There are all indications that she will win honors again this year. The boats are about thirty-nine inches long and carry a sail area of six hundred seventy square inches, having masts forty-six inches high. The making of these boats is of great value to the boys in the training of the eye and the hand. Mr. Lyon and Mr. Barron are faculty advisers. ninety ' Seven CHESS CLUB President Philip Wikelund Executive Committee Eugene Adiey and Charles Staiger Records Committee Milton Joice and Albert Kerr Finance Committee Neil Smith and Raleigh George Program Committee Marvin PuUiam and Merlin Martin Facidty Advisers Miss Alldritt, Miss Lindsley, and Mr. Barron A newly organized club of the past year is the Chess Club. It has aroused the interest of many students, who either play chess or wish to learn the game. They have already had a number of meetings and matches. The membership has reached twenty-five and a great increase is expected for the club ' s second year. The first match with an outside school was with George Washing- ton High School. The outcome favored Inglewood six to four, while the following games proved to be equally successful. This club will prove a means of establishing closer relationship between its members and students from other schools. ninety-eight WEDNESDAY GROUP THE CONTINUATION DEPARTMENT Co-operation, as we all know, is necessary for the attainment of success, and the continuation department of 1930 most assuredly has had it. There have been approxi- mately one hundred pupils in attendance throughout the year, who have worked together with a fine spirit. They have had a wide range of subjects from which to choose, including typing, English, sewing, and shop work, and all have had training in citizenship. Owing to the overcrowding of the high school, it was necessary to move the Continuation Department, which formerly has been known as the part-time department, and it is now located on the corner of Damask and Kelso Streets in a five-room bunga- low that has been converted into a school building. The living room, dining room, and front bedroom of this house have been made into an L-shaped class room, where most of the work is done, while the kitchen has been transformed into an office, the back bedroom into a typing room, and the sun porch into a reading room. The grounds around the bungalow are very attractive with flowers, shrubs, and trees. The most important of the many changes that took place this year was the appear- ance of a new director, Mrs. Marion Overman, who has had charge of all the work done at the bungalow and of filling all employment calls. The old arrangement of having the shop work and sewing taught in the full time departments has been continued. Mr. Gerhart is the new co-ordinator, and Miss Viola Prenger, who did the clerical work in 1927 and 1928, has resumed her position under Mrs. Overman. Early in the year, Redondo Continuation Department entertained for Inglewood Continuation Department at a party at Redondo High School, and everybody who went enjoyed the many amusing games that were played and the splendid spirit of hospitality that was made manifest. Later, by way of a housewarming, a dance was held at the bungalow. Further changes within the department may be predicted with certainty for next year, as a new law has been made that is designed to better the education of boys and girls who can not attend full time classes. When pupils are out of employment here- after, they will go to continuation classes for fifteen hours a week instead of four and thereby create an increase of attendance that will necessitate many new arrangements.

The writing is done by juniors and seniors taking the journalism courses. Under the direction of their instructor, Mr. Chester U. TeeGarden, these classes have tried to maintain the honor of publishing the biggest and best paper in the Bay League. El Centinela in Spanish means The Sentinel. The paper is truly the Sentinel of Inglewood High School, as it has carried every possible item of news concerning campus happenings, sports, and the other activities which are vital to our high school life. It also publishes notes of interest concerning our alumni and activities of neighboring high schools. one hundred fine In the publication of El Centinela straight news style is used. The staff and print shop are held to a regular schedule, and so far as possible the routine work is done in the manner of a regular daily paper. The course in journalism offers two years of work for those who desire it. The first semester is used in teaching the fundamentals of news writing. The second semester is devoted to more extensive practice in actual news writing, following the theory that if one is to learn to write, he must write. Assignments for the paper are given out regularly to the reporting class, and these stories, together with news items collected on their regular beats, are turned in for publication. Editorial and feature writing are taught in the third semester of the journalism course, and third semester students are appointed to minor staff positions. Here the student also learns the technique of proof reading as well as the responsibilities of a member of the staff. The fourth semester completes the course, and the position of Editor-in-Chief of El Centinela is filled from this class. The course in journalism has been found very beneficial by many students, since it gives the aspirants a taste of newspaper work as well as teaching them the value of dependability. El Centinela has a number of feature departments. One of these is The Transit, a front page column for editorial comment on campus news, sports, etc. By custom this feature is written by the Editor. Another feature is the Hot Dog Stand, a column on the sport page and written by the Sport Editor. Here the various dope sheets, fore- casts, comments on past games, etc., are found. This column has proved very popular with the readers and has been a regular for some time on this account. The joke column is called Off Duty and is headed with an appropriate cut. A regular policy of El Centinela is the issuing of special editions for special occasions. There is always a Senior Edition in honor of the graduation of each of the senior classes. These are printed in colored ink in the class colors. Senior news, plans of the graduates, accomplishments of the class, records of her athletes, and graduation activities are featured in this edition. A Home-Coming Edition is always published for the alumni on their annual Home-Coming Day. This year a special edition was pub- lished to commemorate the laying of the corner stone at Leuzinger High School. The paper was one of the articles to be sealed in the copper box which was placed under the corner stone. NEWS BUREAU The Student News Bureau of Inglewood High School is the medium through which publicity for the school is released. This organization is a part of the regular journalism course and has as its purpose the reporting of news about the school to the city papers. Reams and reams of copy that have been printed in the local, valley, and Los Angeles newspapers have been distributed through this bureau. The News Bureau was formed originally to provide assignments for the members of the ever growing journalism classes, but it has proved its value to the school to such an extent that it is now a permanent part of the journalism course. Edward ToUefson was Editor of the News Bureau the first semester and Francis Stanley the second semester, with Barbara Bradford as assistant. one hundred six ■ ' % n M , ■a ' B H bt- J .

This spirit of mutual endeavor and co-operation has extended beyond the actual staff of the Green and White. The staff particularly wishes to acknowledge its indebtedness and to express its appreciation to Mrs. Rowland, Mrs. Felts, and Mr. Kew for material on the history of Inglewood; and to Loo- Ann Golden, Betty Alexander, and Richard Owen for art work. For financial contributions the staff wishes to express Its appreciation to the members of the Carnival Committee and all the classes, organiza- tions, and individuals who helped to make the Carnival a success; to Bonnie Emerie of the class of ' 25 and Feme Hart of the class of ' 24, who presented a musical program in pay assemblies; to Bella Musica who contributed part of the money taken in during their pay assemblies; to the B Play Production Class who presented a play in the pay assemblies for the Green and White Fund; and to the classes of W ' 27, W ' 28, and S ' 28 who donated part of their class funds to the Green and White Fund.

DEBATING AND ORATORY Inglewood did not win any championships in debating this year, but she has main ' tained an interest in forensics for which she has always been noted. The Sentinel debaters carried a strenuous schedule, participating in the Southern California and Bay Leagues and entering one practice debate. The debate team has a new coach this year, Mr. Tee Garden, who has worked conscientiously with the squad. He commends the debaters for their unlagging interest. Kathryn Bartling and Ted Kinney represented Inglewood in the first debate of the year, a Southern California contest with Woodrow Wilson. The Sentinel arguers upheld the aifirmative side of the proposition, Resolved: That chain stores are detri- mental. The decision was two to one in favor of the Presidents, but it was a very closely contested argument, and the result was in doubt until the decision was announced. The Bay League debating season opened on November 2 1 . Dick Jenkins and Ruth Ross lost to Huntington Park on the home platform by the score of three to nothing in upholding the affirmative side of the proposition, Resolved: That a department of Aviation should be established separate from the Army and Navy. Donald Paxton and Donald Livingston successfully invaded Redondo, winning by a score of tv. ' o to one on the negative side of the same question. The next Southern California debate was held with Alhambra in our own auditor- ium. The Inglewood team, comprised of Donald Paxton and Ruth Ross, defended the one hundred ten negative side of the proposition, Resolved : That the modern business policy of firing at forty should he abolished. Both schools had a large turnout, and the auditorium was nearly filled. Alhambra won, three to nothing. Inglewood was comparatively successful in the next round of Bay League debating. Ted Kinney and Donald Livingston decisively defeated Compton in our study hall on the affirmative side of the proposition, Resolved: That it is better to rent than to own your own home. Dorothy and Donald Peterson lost on the negative side of the same proposition to San Pedro, two to one. Inglewood ' s last Southern California clash of the year was at Jefferson High. Philip Wikelund and Herbert Baus upheld the affirmative side of the question, Resolved : That the hydro-electric water power of the United States should be owned and controlled by the Federal Government. There was only one judge at this debate; his decision was for Jefferson. The last round of Bay League debating this year found Donald and Dorothy Peterson defending the negative side of the proposition, Resolved: That radio advertising is better than newspaper advertising. They lost, three to nothing, at Santa Monica. Ted Kinney and Dick Jenkins defended the affirmative side of the same proposition in our study hall on April 29 and lost to Woodrow Wilson. This was a banner year for Inglewood oratory. The first oratorical event of the year was the annual Thrift Contest, sponsored by the Peoples ' Building and Loan Association and held in the auditorium January 21. The winner every year has his name engraved on the Thrift Cup presented by the Building and Loan Association. Wesley Addy and Edna Stewart tied for first place. The Constitutional Oratorical Contest this year was featured by the largest turnout Inglewood has ever had for the event, seventy-five students. The school finals were held March 25. Philip Wikelund and Donald Paxton won first and second places and were awarded prizes of ten and five dollars respectively. They also won the right to represent Inglewood at the district finals at Compton on April 1 1 . Donald Paxton here won second place with his oration entitled The Adaption of the Constitution to the Changing Needs of the American People. one hundred eleven TYPING TEAMS The work of the typing classes of the high school has been a very interesting chapter of Inglewood High School ' s history, filled with many cups, pins and medals, as well as much hard, conscientious work on the part of the students. Flora Williams added another page to history this year by being the first student of this high school to write over one hundred words a minute on a fifteen minute test. For the past four years the contest teams have won many speed and accuracy awards, and Inglewood has the honor of being the first school in Southern California ever to win a trophy in a State contest. Two years ago Inglewood won a State accuracy cup and last year won the State cup for second year speed with the highest rate of speed at which it has ever been won. The 1929-1930 group worked exceptionally hard and had its tomahawk well sharpened to add a few more Southern California scalps to its trophy case, but word was received, just before the usual contest time, that there would be no Southern Califor- nia contest this year. Therefore, it was a case of more grinding and sharpening of the tomahawk to be ready for the State test. In this contest, to be held May 10, the teams will strive to add more State honors to Inglewood ' s trophy case. one hundred twelve First Row: Diffley, Aricu, Rawley. Second Row: Black.

CARNIVAL Inglewood High School has enjoyed a new experience this year in preparing for a gigantic Carnival, the purpose of which is to raise money for the Silver Anniversary edition of the annual. Every department in school has entered whole-heartedly into the project, and as the annual goes to press, all indications point to a highly successful Carnival. Scheduled for the afternoons and evenings of May 9 and 10, the Carnival will feature sideshows, food booths, games of skill, vaudeville, a water carnival, dancing, and other attractions. The various classes, organisations, and departments are sponsoring the different booths and entertainments, which promise to be both interesting and surprising. The House of Horrors, the Tom Thumb golf links, the Trip through Hades, and all the usual features of a Carnival will be in evidence. We are looking forward to this event as the biggest and most exciting of the school year. The co-operation of all students and teachers in the undertaking has been more than we could ask. Outside organisations have been most generous in their assistance. Leuzinger High School, the Parent-Teachers ' Association, and the business houses of the community and surrounding territory have cheerfully contributed toward the success of the Carnival. Mr. Riese has been in general charge of the plans for the event, assisted by a com- mittee of students working under faculty advisers. The general committee is as follows: Mildred Cooley, Charles Karnow, Frances Sorenson, Jean Hodgkms, Marian Rawley, Ladis Glasgow, Donald Peterson, Mornson Black, Ted Kinney, May Diffley, Johnnie Bladel, Donald Geggie, Donald Paxton, and Carl O ' Gara. one hundred thirteen CARNIVAL, MAY 9 AND 10 one hundred fourteen lOA CLASS SIDE-SHOW A prize of one page in the annual was offered for the most remunerative of the class side-shows at the Carnival. The prize is hereby awarded to the lOA class, who presented The Romance of King Melachrino, a burlesque written by Mr. Grain, class teacher. Mr. Grain was assisted in training the casts by Miss Sessions, a lOA Roll Call teacher. Three complete casts rotated in presenting the show. Charles Peabody, Jack Foxx, and Robert Jones played the title role; Helen Rice, Doris Matthew, and Helen Chase portrayed the jealous spouse; the three who took the part of the Mysterious Lady were Dawn Bullock, Pearl Richardson, and Peggy Smith. Olive Chuck, Deloris Sass, and Margaret Robinson amused His Majesty with true Oriental dancing; Emilio Bruno, Dorothy Mathis, and Marguerite Immel acted as fan bearers; the foreign mes- sengers were Zolton Kish, James Green, and Glen Pickard. The readers who explained the dastardly plot were Grace Paxton, Alberta Hansen, Dorothy Marshall, Agnes Bell, and Daryl Boyd. The lOA Harmonica Orches- tra, composed of Milton Joice, Harold Fletcher, Paul Kanawah, and James George, furnished incidental music. one hundred fifteen SOCIETY Well, all I know is just what I read in the El Centinela and what I gather at our school social affairs. This year has certainly been a lively one for Inglewood High School. I ' ve just been in a whirlwind of joy trying to keep up with all our parties, banquets, and dances which have proved so successful during 1929-1930. The Scholarship Society gave its first party in October — a Who ' s Zoo party. You may always depend on this society to give a clever and original party, as this certainly was. The room was appropriately decorated with all sorts of animal cut-outs, and all the games and contests during the evening used the Zoo idea in some humorous way. The prizes and refreshments were also in keeping with that theme. Another social event for the Scholarship Society was in the form of a banquet. The Inglewood Chapter was hostess to delegates from fourteen other schools of District Seven of the Scholarship Federation. The Indian Sentinel idea was carried out in the decorations, food, and entertainment. Girls in Indian costumes served the meal, which was also in Indian style. Chief Standing Bear and his niece. Sunflower, entertained with stories and songs. In February the Chapter entertained again with a Valentine party for the new members. However, the smart students aren ' t the only ones to have parties; the senior A ' s of the winter class held a marvelous dance, I am told. The decorations were carried out in the class colors, cardinal and gold. The music was furnished by the jazzy Potrero Country Club Orchestra, and the party was made a gay one with the throwing of balloons, confetti, serpentines, and what have you! Punch and cookies were served, and a delightful entertainment was given during the intermission. The final social event for these seniors was their class breakfast. Really, this must have been good, since the breakfast was cooked and served by the boys of Mrs. Sunderlin ' s cooking class. The two Girls ' League Little Sister parties were very successful this year. The freshmen had a great time with their big sisters, who showed them around and intro- duced them to every one. Indeed, no one could help but have a great time when they had such clever programs, delicious food, and a fine orchestra to dance to. The annual High Jinks given by the Girls ' League was the most colorful affair of the year. The girls were in a daze of excitement for two weeks before the affair, and it took them about the same length of time afterward to get back to normal — especially the class of S ' 31, since they won the prize for the best stunt. It consisted of an orchestra of fourteen girls in the duckiest red and white costumes, and also specialty song and dance numbers. These 11 A ' s certainly did strut for the rest of the evening, for you see this was the second time they had won first prize for the best stunt. After the program the girls went to the Boys ' Gym, where they had refreshments and dancing. Many clever costumes were seen in the grand march, and prizes were given for the prettiest, the funniest, and the most original costumes. Who said there ain ' t no Santa Claus? Well, there is, because I saw him at the Christmas party given by the History Club. He was a jolly old fellow, too. He read interesting letters from faculty members, telling what they wanted for Christmas, and : hundred sixteen he gave everybody a stocking full of candy and nuts. Gee! we had a great time, playing games and enjoying a clever little playlet. The Spanish Club also held a Christmas party. Mrs. Waddingham ' s third year o ' ass was in charge of the program. They presented a two-act Mexican play. After the plav the Spanish glee dub and harmonica band rendered some Christmas carols. Then the pinata, a grab bag, was opened, and every one received a little surprise. The Blateronians gave their annual party for the senior members of the club in January. After a short business meeting a delightful program was presented, including a play and several musical numbers. The meeting then adjourned to the cafeteria annex, where refreshments were served. A very enjoyable time was also had at their annual banquet given in May. Every one came in Roman costumes and oartlook of a Roman style meal, which was partly eaten with the fingers in imitation of the ancient Romans. A clever program was given between courses, and the new and old officers of the club gave interesting speeches. Bella Musica gave two successful parties this year. The first was the annual banquet given in honor of the senior members of the club. Good food, interesting speeches, and a peppy program were the high lights of this affair. The second party was on April first. It was an April Fool affair, given after school in the cafeteria annex for the new members of the club. Lots of foolishness was the order of the day, and oh, how those initiates did suffer! The Girls ' Athletic Association can certainly give parties, which was proved on May 11th. Since it was a hard-time affair, the girls came in their oldest clothes in order that they might cut up and have a good time. After partaking of a pot luck dinner, they enjoyed themselves with ball games, scooter races, and hide-and-seek in the darkened gym. The students aren ' t the only ones who know how to give parties. I hear the faculty club held a very interesting one in the girls ' gym for the new teachers, in the form of a burlesque school. There were classes of music, dressmaking for boys, biology, and dramatics. School started with an assembly with Mr. Simar, the principal, presiding. The freshman teachers were compelled to wear freshman hats, while the senior teachers were decorated with arm bands. A school dance was given for the first time in the history of Inglewood High School. In fact, three of them were given, since the first one proved so successful. The first was given by the Girls ' League; the second, by the Boys ' League; and the third, by the Student Body. All students were invited to these dances, and the attendance was large in each case. The organisation sponsoring each dance furnished clever decorations and pro- grams, wonderful music, peppy intermission stunts, and all the balloons and confetti and serpentines necessary to a dance. This phase of our school life has not been neglected and will furnish the material for many happy memories of our high school in future years. one hundred seventeen The 1913 May pole Dance was held on the front lawn.

Through the efforts of the music teachers of Inglewood High School this influence in our school life has been enriched by their giving to us a more interesting and better class of music. By special music assemblies and by entertainments between acts at plays and during social functions this has been accomplished. An unusual method of entertaining the pupils was given just before the Christmas vacation. Through the work of the radio department and Miss Hughes, head of the music department, we heard Christmas carols sung over the radio. Loud speakers were placed at intervals on top of the Administration building, enabling us to hear the carols during noon periods and between classes. The music department offers courses in glee club and voice with Miss Hughes; orchestra with Mr. Monroe; appreciation, band, instruments, and theory with Miss Pfau; and accompanying, harmony, and piano with Mrs. Wendland. All the glee clubs have been very successful. The Girls Junior Glee is composed of thirty girls and the Girls Senior Glee of about thirty-six. The Boys Glee Club is larger than m previous years, there being twenty-six members enrolled. In the three clubs there are splendid voices and much natural talent. Special attention has been given here, as in the voice class, to vocal production. Still two other organizations which have been added to our music activities this year are the boys ' double quartet and the girls trio, which are for service on programs. They are trained by Miss Hughes and are ready to sing at practically a moment s notice. The plans for the orchestra have been somewhat changed this year. Instead of playing together as a large, ungraded group, as formerly, the more experienced players meet for instruction and practice one period and the less experienced, another period. As a result of this grouping the orchestra has accomplished much more. They gave their concert during the first semester and were very well received by the public. They had the honor of playing at the Teachers Institute at Whittier dunng Christmas vaca- tion. The orchestra did splendid work, which was appreciated very much by the one hundred twenty-one BU b GLhh CLL ' B audience. Mr. Monroe and the school were compHmented highly on the work of the orchestra. Besides the class for band a noon hand, consisting of twenty-five players, has been organized. This was done in order that the pupils unable to have a period for band might take this activity. The band plays at games and is of great help in keeping up the school spirit. Two instrument classes, beginning and advanced, have also been organized. Instruction is given in wood wind and brass instruments and in drums. A number of new instruments have been added to the splendid equipment that we possess. The course in theory and appreciation has previously been for one year, but in this past year they have been given as separate courses, each being offered as a semester subject. Since appreciation is now offered as a semester course, any student in school may take it for its cultural value alone. A new semester subject, piano accompanying, has been added to the department. In this course the students who are prepared for the work are given training in many types of accompaniment. They play for the glee clubs, for some of the gymnasium classes, and in student activities wherever they are needed. Harmony is the study of the framework of which music is made. In this course chords, progressions, keys, rhythm, and musical discrmiination are duly considered. Some thing new has been tried during the past year in both the beginning and advanced harmony classes. Instead of having a final test at the end of the year the students were either to write an original composition for the piano or to arrange a known number for a small orchestra. As a result of this a number of fine compositions have been written. The members of the piano classes gave a concert May twenty-eighth. They made a fine showing for their teacher, Mrs. Wendland, and for the department. Some of the students of harmony played their own compositions. Especially noteworthy was the overture, Midsummer Night ' s Dream, by Mendelssohn, a number for two pianos and played by four people. The glee club ' s biggest production, the operetta, Once in a Blue Moon, was a one hundred twenty-two ORCHESTRA BAND one hundred tif ent -three great success. From the public ' s standpoint it was one of the most interesting and smoothest operettas given in this school. It was a modern play, with love and mystery interwoven. The story was about Bob Harrington, who after an absence of four years at college was expected to be present at a week-end party at the home of his foster aunt, Mrs. Montgomery, whose daughter, Sylvia, had been his childhood sweetheart. Having fallen in love with another girl at college he sends his chum, George Taylor, who closely resembles him, to the party. George is anxious to go, as Sylvia ' s picture greatly interests him. He arrives amid preparations for a Spanish fiesta and finds he likes Sylvia even better than her picture. Two unexpected guests. Sir Percival Chetwood and M. Rene Le Mon, arrive after having had an automobile accident. Mrs. Montgomery invites them to stay. That night a robbery takes place, and George is suspected. He will not reveal his identity, thus casting even deeper suspicion. But after Skylark Roams, a detective, has been called in, the mystery is explained and the unexpected guests are taken to jail. George reveals his identity, and Sylvia finds that she loves him instead of Bob. Comedy was given by the swanky Englishman and Mrs. Lavender, a poor, dear soul who always had an ache or a pain and was forever lamenting the death of her dear, departed husband, Mortimer. The success of the operetta was mainly due to the work of Miss Hughes and her assistants. Miss Will, who directed the acting, Mr. Monroe, the orchestra director, and Mrs. Wendland, the accompanist, deserve special mention. Credit is also due to the physical education, woodshop, stagecraft, art, and sewing departments, who aided materially in the production. The cast of characters (in the order of their appearance) was as follows: Moon Lady Elnease Goodpasture Hop Sing Hi, The House Man Ruth Ross Suzanne, The French Maid Marguerite Immel Mrs. Montgomery, The Hostess Margaret Prader Sylvia Montgomery, Her Daughter Edna Stewart Leatrice Montgomery, Her Younger Daughter Phyllis Godwin Mrs. Lila Lavender, Still in Mourning Verna Lee Billy Maxwell, a Victim of Circumstance Gordon SoUenberg Sir Percival Chetwood Jefi Ferris M.

While under the capable direction of Miss Hazel Rose Lawrence, the productions of Inglewood High School have not been sur- passed, and too much credit can not be given her for the splendid way in which she has made it possible for us to win recognition in the dramatic field. Let it not be forgotten, also, that the Dramatics department assisted in a financial way in makincr it possible for us to have a Jubilee Edition of the Annual. This past season has been most successful, and an expression of thanks and appre- ciation is due Mrs. Smith and Miss Welles of the Art department, who together with their students have assisted with posters, designing, and printing of costumes; Mr. Armstrong and his stage crew for their task of building and shifting scenes; Mr. McCauley and the stage electricians; Miss Slaughter and her students for costuming; and Mr. Travis and the printing classes for their work with tickets, programs, and posters. A SINGLE MAN The Dramatics class opened the season November 22 and 23 with that most enjoyable and successful comedy, A Single Man, playing to four houses instead of the customary two. The additional performances were given both to satisfy popular one hundred twenty-jive demand and as a benefit for Jimmy Nuchols, a former student body president and graduate of Inglewood who was at that time suffering from an attack of ether pneumonia. Excellent character work was shown in the presentation, since there were various types of persons portrayed. The story concerns one Robin Worthington, a middle-aged bachelor, who due to a sudden attack of spring fever, fancies himself deeply in love with Httle seventeen-year-old Maggie Cottrell. In the meantime his sister-in-law, Isabella Worthington, has decided that Robin shall marry Louise Parker, a friend of hers, and poor Robin, between trying to escape Louise, the designing woman, and trying to keep up with Maggie, who literally runs him ragged, seems to have a merry time. He slowly comes to himself and realizes that he loves Miss Heseltine, his secretary, who until this time has kept herself very much in the background, Maggie decides that Robin is too old for her and he is m this way freed from his promise to Maggie and may marry Miss Heseltine. Miss Lawrence directed this play, and the actors came up to the high standards set by her. Following is the cast: Isabella Worthington Janet Van Rensselaer Henry Worthington Morris Cooley Robin Worthington Robert Eunson Gladys Madelyne Baker Maggie Cottrell Nina Schwabauer The Nurse Josephine Munyer Miss Heseltine Nellie Bates Louise Parker Frances Sorensen Lady Cottrell Leona Wilson Dickie Cottrell Donald Paxton Bertha Sims Ilo Crow Mrs. Higson Evelyn Louden STRONGHEART Strongheart, a comedy-drama, presented by the class of winter 1929, January 10 and 11, depicted the life of an American Indian at College. It was typical college play, involving all the details of collegiate dress and talk, college yells and games, and flivvers. Soangataha, the Indian, is quite the idol of the school and is in love with Dorothy Nelson. During the half of the big football game of the year, it is discovered that some one from the team has sent the signals to the other school, and Soangataha, finding that the signals are in his chum ' s hand writing and realizing that since Dick is Captain of the team to take him out of the game would be disastrous, shoulders the blame and is disgraced. At a party later he proposes to Dorothy and is accepted by her. An Indian from his tribe arrives and tells him that his father is dead and that his people need him. Soangataha realizes what a tragedy an Indian life for Dorothy would be, and relinquish- ing her love, he goes away. one hundred twenty-six STRONGHEART The play was directed by Miss Doris Weary of the Speech department and was very successful. The cast (in the order of their appearance) was as follows: Taylor Wesley Addy Ross Donald Everitt Reade Carlin Matson Thorne Edward ToUefson Fred Skinner Loren Barton Frank Nelson Hubert Eaves Dick Livingston Carl K.

Pals First, was presented by the Senior class of S ' JO, and although for several years Miss Lawrence has not had charge of the senior plays, the entire direction of Pals First was in her hands. Pals First was the story of two tramps, Danny and Dominie, who, through the supposed craziness of Alex, an old negro servant, gained admittance to the home of Richard Castleman, a southern gentleman, who was at the time traveling in Europe for his health, under the supposition that Danny was Dick Castleman. Complications — namely Jean, Dick ' s sweetheart, and her uncle. Judge Logan — • arose, and throughout the play an air of suspense was quite apparent. Aunt Caroline and Uncle Alex, the two negro servants, firmly believed that Danny was Dick, and Jean had no reason to doubt her sweetheart. It was revealed through the agency of Chilton, Dick ' s cousin, that Danny had no right to be there, and that the real Dick was dead and buried at sea. Stivers, a federal detective, who knew Danny Rowland to be not only a tramp but also an escaped convict, corrected this statement made by Chilton and — but it is not fair to give away the story. Pals First has a surprise ending and if you did not see the play, you will have to use your own judgment. Everett McMullin, who played the double part of Danny and Dick, showed no small ability along the hne of character portrayal, and Gordon SoUenberg did excellent work as Dominie. Of Vera Snider and JeflF Ferris, who played Aunt Caroline and one hundred twenty-eight CAST OF CLARENCE Uncle Alex, it may safely be said that they played their parts perfectly. The cast was as follows: Dominie) „ , ( Gordon Sollenberg Danny ( ' ® { Everett McMullin Uncle Alex, a servant Jeff Ferris The Squirrel, a tramp Robert Eunson Aunt Caroline, a servant Vera Snider Judge Logan Ted Kinney Jean, Judge Logan ' s niece Marion Rawley Dr. Chilton . . Syd Smith Miss Alicia Eileen Mitchell Gordon, of the Nashville Central office Morris Cooley Stivers, a Federal detective Richard DuPuy POOR OLD JIM The next play was a one-act comedy, Poor Old Jim, presented by the B Play Production Class during Roll Call for the purpose of raising money for the Green and White Fund. Poor Old Jim shows a very novel way of curing drunkenness. Jim, although he has repeatedly been warned, persists in drinking, and to cure him his wife and his doctor form a conspiracy in which they agree that when Jim rouses from his one hundred twenty-nine STAGE CREW drunken stupor, they will pretend not to see hnii and make him believe that he has become a ghost. When Jim awakens, Marie, his wife, is crying, and during the ensu- ing conversation Jim realizes blankly that he is dead. When he finds that the doctor is making love to Marie, he realizes what he has lost. Needless to say, Jim is cured of the alcoholic habit. The cast follows: Jim Kenneth Nichols Marie Dominica Arico The Doctor Lee Hake CLARENCE As a climax to the season. Booth Tarkington ' s hilarious comedy, Clarence, was produced May 23 and 24; and a second time at Leuzinger High, May 29th. Clarence is a good portrayal of American family life. Clarence is a stranded soldier and is engaged by Mr. Wheeler in the hope that he may be able to control the children, the children being Bobby and Cora Wheeler. Cora nurses the idea that she is in love with Hubert Stem, a grass widower. After knowing Clarence better, Cora decides that it is he with whom she is in love. Mrs. Wheeler is jealous of Miss Pinney, the governess, thinking that Mr. Wheeler is attracted by her. Bobby, with whom they one hundred thirty have considerable trouble concerning his schools, is violently in love with Violet Pinney. Clarence feels that Miss Pinney is perfect and takes it for granted that she will marry him. Mr. Wheeler discovers that Clarence is a well known biologist, and the curtain goes down with the family feeling astounded because of Clarence ' s cleverness. Cora is obviously disappointed because Clarence has gone off with Miss Pinney. The cast is as follows: Clarence Sydney Smith Miss Pinney Frances Sorenson Cora Wheeler Ruth Ross Bobby Wheeler Robert Eunson Mr. Wheeler Morris Cooley Mrs. Wheeler Leone Flory, Jean Searle Hubert Stem Jack Hamilton Delia Margaret Palmer Dinwiddie Arthur Becker Rosie Mary Irene Bates one hundred thirty-one In 1924 the Inglewood Class A Basketball team fought its way to the Southern California championship. The ball used in the playoff, mounted with the pictures of the boys on the team, has a place in our trophy case. ♦ ♦ Sports ♦ ♦ 1 i %, % n CLASS A FOOTBALL CLASS B FOOTBALL one hundred thirty-four BOYS ' ATHLETICS CLASS A FOOTBALL When Coaches Badenoch, Buckmaster, and Sowers called the Varsity football aspirants together, it was believed that they looked on the best turnout of material since the fall of 1926. One of the strongest defensive teams in the Bay League, the heavy- weight squad held its opponents to very small scores, but the lack of offensive power when it was needed cost the Sentinels the majority of their games. The team ' s final standing in the League does not indicate the interest in the games, all of which were closely contested, nor the intensity of fight which the team displayed. COMPTON, — InGLEWOOD, In a game that was a nip and tuck battle from the very first whistle until the final gun, Inglewood varsity got a 0-0 draw with the Compton heavies. The game showed over and over again the strong defensive power which the Sentinels displayed throughout the season. Santa Monica, 6 — Inglewood, Before the game was a minute old, Santa Monica had made a touchdown. Praise is due to the Sentinel line for the way it held after the first few minutes of play. The Samohi outfit did not succeed in scoring again. WooDROw Wilson, — Inglewood, 6 The Sentinel heavyweight football team won from the Woodrow Wilson outfit on the latter ' s field. Because of the all-around superior playing of the Sentinels, the game was never in doubt. The mighty Green and White line was hitting on all seven and then some. Venice, 12 — Inglewood, 6 As far as all-around team play was concerned, the local boys had it all oveir their opponents. From the opening whistle to the final down, neither team had the game in the safe. The Gondoliers ' first score came in the second quarter, as did the Sentinels ' . San Pedro, 14 — Inglewood, Inglewood played a spotty game of ball. At times they would play their opponents off their feet, and then again they would let down and allow the Pirate crew to romp all over them. Failure to cope with Pedro ' s four-man interference cost the Sentinel heavies the game. Redondo, — Inglewood, Our Green and White heavyweight football squad was able to get only a draw with the fishermen on the latter ' s field. A chance to score was lost in the closing seconds of play. Huntington Park, 25 — Inglewood, Inglewood threatened to score several times on long passes, but when the final punch was needed, the Sentinels failed to function. This game clinched the Bay League title for Huntington Park. The heavies earning the block I this year were as follows: Captain Fred Crogan, Carl O ' Gara, Ned Gibson, Lee Hake, Frank Scheliga, and Ed Bowman, two stars each; Harold Church, Bill DuPuy, Neil McNeill, Gene Graeber, Bob Armstrong, Vernon ZiUgitt, and John Harp; Ed ToUefson and Johnny Bladel, managers. o ie hundred thirty-five CLASS B FOOTBALL Five of last year ' s class B lettermen and a number of class C stars turned out for practice at Coach Arnett ' s call. Throughout the season the hoys showed flashes of good playing, but a lack of consistency was the main reason for the unsuccessful season of the team. COMPTON, 13 — InGLEWOOD, Lack of their usual fight cost the Sentinel Bees a setback by the Compton Lions. Santa Monica, 24 — Inglewood, The game was not as one-sided as the score indicates. The Sentinel boys showed ability to carry the ball but failed to score. The Vikings scored their victory because of Inglewood ' s inability to make tackles. WooDROw Wilson, — Inglewood, 6 The Sentinels outplayed the Presidents in every department of the game. Ingle- wood scored after carrying the ball from their own 20-yard line on a series of line bucks, reverses, and spin plays. Venice, 6 — Inglewood, Coach Arnett ' s Sentinel Bees dropped a 6 to victory to the Venice Gondoliers on the latter ' s field. Due to erratic football the Sentinels failed to score, though the ball was kept in the Gondoliers ' territory during most of the encounter. San Pedro, 20 — Inglewood, Though outplayed, the entire Sentinel squad played a real, heads-up game. The Inglewood lads put up a hard scrap from the first whistle to the last. Redondo, — Inglewood, 12 The Sentinels defeated Redondo on the home field, and although the Sea Hawks put up a gallant fight, the game was never in doubt, for the Inglewood lads finished on the big end of the score. Huntington Park, 13 — Inglewood, 20 The Sentinel warriors outplayed their opponents in every department of the game. The Spartans didn ' t have a chance until the last three minutes of play, when the reserves were substituted and the Parkers scored two touchdowns. The victory was largely due to team work and the ability to follow the ball. The Sentinels ' interference functioned properly, and as a result the man with the ball was hard to reach. The men who received letters were Captain John Williams, Ross Gilhousen, and Robert Patterson, two stars each; Howard Gaines, Donald Bishop, Earle Peterson, Seth Cole, Arthur Boas, David Deem, Clair Brown, Robert Edwards, and Earl Woods; Robert Foster and Ernest George, managers. CLASS C FOOTBALL Lack of experienced material handicapped Coach Carey ' s C team this season. However, they showed plenty of fight and played their best. Compton, 6 — Inglewood, 6 Although outplaying their opponents in every department of the game, the Sentinel class Cees were held to a tie by Compton when the two teams officially opened the Bay League season. Santa Monica, 7 — Inglewood, Although putting up a tough scrap the local boys were outsmarted to the extent of one touchdown. The Sentinel team fought a scrappy brand of football to the last trench. Woodrow Wilson, — Inglewood, 7 The babes were so full of pep and spirit that it would have taken a very strong team to set them back. Not any time in the encounter were they caught napping. Venice, 18 — Inglewood, The Cees just couldn ' t get going. They fumbled altogether too much to be them- selves. one hundred thirty-six CLASS C iOOTBALL San Pedro, 40 — Inglewood, 2 This was one of the most erratic games of the season. The Gees held the Pirates in check until the second quarter; then the Pirates scored 14 points in three minutes of play and continued to pile up their score. Redondo, 7 — Inglewood, Fighting hard but unable to overcome a touchdown scored against them in the first half, the Sentinel lads lost a close decision to the Sea Hawks. Huntington Park, 19 — Inglewood, 7 Playing a spotty game of football the Inglewood class C aggregation lost their final battle to the hard charging squad from Huntington Park. Inglewood fought hard to the last whistle but could not penetrate the strong Parkers ' defense. The following are the boys who received their letters: Donald Robertson, two stars; Captain Milton Reeder, Frank Arico, Walter Berkheiser, Edward Bowler, Charles Cameron, Edward Lilly, Rawland Menges, Ben Schouboe, Raleigh Voges; Vernon Glines, manager. CLASS A BASKETBALL With Coach Badenoch ' s call a good array of last year ' s lettermen from lightweight and C squads turned out for practice. An early damper was put on the basketball spirits when several men were lost by graduation. The boys really had a successful season, and Inglewood is proud of the way they fought for her. San Pedro, 23 — Inglewood, 22 Win, lose, or draw, none of the spectators who were lucky enough to see that battle to a finish will ever forget it. WooDROw Wilson, 12 — Inglewood, 14 Both teams played a fine game, both defensive and offensive, but Inglewood proved to be the master of the situation. The local boys stepped right out in front and grabbed the lead and were never overcome, but oh, what a game! one hundred thirty-sevein l:LA - a HAMvt IHALL CLASS B BASKETBALL one hundred thirty-eight Redondo, 13 — Inglewood, 15 In an air-tight game that was a thriller from beginning to end, the Sentinel heavy- weights downed the Redondo Sea Hawks. Venice, 34 — Inglewood, 19 Never once did the boys stop fighting. Even in the last minutes of play when all hope for a chance of victory was given up, they still kept fighting and taking pot shots at what seemed to be an elusive hoop. Huntington P. ' krk, 14 — Inglewood, 12 This was probably the tightest game of the season. From the opening whistle to the final gun, the Sentinel team played a heroic nip-and-tuck game. S.- nt. ' Monica, 16 — Inglewood, 13 The local heavyweights seemed to lack the co-operation they usually had. The locals had a small lead at the third quarter, but long shooting enabled the Vikings to creep up and snatch the victory. Compton, 21 — Inglewood, 9 The heavyweights were completely overwhelmed by the gallant Lions in the final game of the season. Those who receive letters are Neil McNeill, Captain, two stars; Byron Starry, Gordon Dressen, Frank Scheliga, Vincent Kasser, and Thomas Sheehani James Tinley and George Morrow, managers. CLASS B BASKETBALL The B team did exceptionally well, considering the loss of several lettermen. Coach Badenoch ' s boys deserve credit for their splendid showing. S.-vN Pedro, 14 — Inglewood, 26 All members of the team deserve much credit as they played a splendid game, defeating the San Pedro Pirates in the first Bay League encounter. WooDROw Wilson, 30 — Inglewood, 12 The Green and White boys played a good hard game but were outclassed by the visitors. The way the Wilson boys passed the ball was outstanding, and they had little trouble in breaking through the Inglewood defense. Redondo, 13 — Inglewood, 10 The Sea Hawks bumped the Sentinels in a tight affair, as the score indicates. The game was hotly fought and was any one ' s game until the final gun. Venice, 28 — Inglewood, 26 When the game really ended, the score stood 21 to 21, and it was necessary to play an extra period to declare a winner. Finally, as the time was nearing for the third extra period, Venice sank a long shot to cinch the victory for the Gondoliers. Huntington P.ark, 14 — Inglewood, 17 It is only fair to say that the chief asset of the local boys is team play. By scoring seven points in the last two minutes of play the Inglewood lightweights won from the Santa Monica outfit. Compton, 31 — Inglewood, 25 Playing against a team that could sink them from any place on the floor, the lightweight casaba tossers went down in defeat to the dead-eye Compton Lions. Those who receive letters are Captain Robert Patterson, two stars; Donald Oswald, Jimmy Sutherland, Everett Braun, William Sims, Philip Starry, Floyd WiUiams; James Tinley and George Morrow, managers.

Venice, 16 — Inglewood, 13 The Sentinels played one of the best games of their career but failed to rally soon enough to overcome an early lead piled up by the Venice five. Huntington Park, 10 — Inglewood, 20 The class C outfit romped all over the Huntington Park boys. Taking the game as a whole the Spartans never had a chance. Santa Monica, 22 — Inglewood, 16 Playing a brilliant but overconfident game the C team lost to the Santa Monica Vikings. Compton, 38 — Inglewood, 17 This being the last game of the season our boys went in with their hearts set on victory, but high hopes took wings when the Compton five just seemed to walk through our defense and suik set-ups.

CLASS D BASKETBALL Inexperience and size handicapped Coach Sowers ' s midgets this year. There were no returning lettermen, but Coach Sowers developed a team that did its best to place high in the Bay League.

They have had a number of prac- tice meets in which the local boys have come out on the large end of the score. CLASS C SWIMMING BAY LEAGUE, 1929 The Sentinel babes placed seven times in seven events and took second in the Bay League. Those who received letters were Calvin Terry, captain; William Pfau, Frank Quinn, Paul Seidel, Herman Myers, Preston Stewart, and Raymond Stockman. The team is making a good showing for the 1930 season and hope to place high in Bay League. BASEBALL Baseball, 1929 The baseball championship presented to Inglewood High School by Coach Buck ' master ' s 1929 baseball squad was the first championship in this sport to be possessed by the local institution since 1915. It is only fair to say that the pitching of Charles one hundred forty-six Moose Redling was one of the mainstays of the team. Redling twirled no less than five one-hit hall games, which is a very rare happening in Bay League baseball. In the Southern California play-offs the Sentinel team was stopped by FuUerton in one of the fastest games ever played on the latter ' s field, with the final score of FuUerton 1 and Inglewood 0. The following are the boys that Coach Buckmaster recommended for letters and sweaters: Captain Kenneth Elgan, 2 stars; Harry Whitmore, 4 stars; Captam-elect Johnny Bladel, 2 stars; Valuable man, Charles Redling, 2 stars; Ed Benson, Art Kelly, Ross Gilhousen, Donald Fruchey, Bob Drumm, Ed Dewar and Jack Verbeck, managers. Baseball, 1930 With only one game remaining on the Bay League schedule Coach Buckmaster ' s Sentinel nine has a clean record, a sure Bay League title, and a good chance for the Southern California championship. With six returning letter men and some splendid new material the team showed at the start that it was made up of potential champions. Huntington Park, 1 — Inglewood, 7 Playing their usual steady game throughout the contest the Sentinels easily out- classed the nine warriors from Sparta. Redling and Bladel took care of the battery work. Santa Monica, 1 — Inglewood, 6 This game was marred by loose playing on the part of both teams infield. However, the Sentinels emerged on the long end of the score when they scored four runs in the sixth inning to overcome a one-run lead. Compton, 2 — Inglewood, 3 In this game it was only after ten closely contested innings that the Sentinels finally secured the victory over the ever roaring and ever fighting Lions. Bert Morgan and Chuck Redling saw duty from the rubber, while Captain Bladel held down his usual position behind the bat. San Pedro, 2 — Inglewood, 3 By outhitting the Pirates the Sentinels were able to win this contest after nine innings of real baseball. Pedro ' s ninth inning rally was cut short with one run by the gallant mound work of Moose Redling, who, after letting the Pedro pitcher lead off with a home run, settled down to real twirling and struck out two victims, making the third man ground out to him. WooDRow Wilson, 2 — Inglewood, 10 Playing their usual brand of baseball the Inglewood horse-hide artists completely outplayed the fighting Presidents on the latter ' s field. The fellows hit the offerings of the Wilson chuckers for ten safeties, and fifty percent of these went for extra base hits. Redondo, — Inglewood, 12 By converting sixteen hits into twelve runs the Sentinels swamped the Sea Hawks on their diamond. Hitting honors went to Van Vliet and Captain Bladel with three bingles apiece, while TrujiUo, Edwards, and Gilhousen hit the ball for two safeties to vie for second honors. TENNIS By losing but one match up to the present time Coach Badenoch ' s tennis team looks like a strong contender for the Bay League title. The boys have defeated the strong teams from Huntington Park, Compton, San Pedro, Woodrow Wilson, and Redondo, and have lost only to the Santa Monica netmen. Each week the tennis boys have challenge contests, which change the line-up for the League matches from time to time. The line-up at present is as follows: Jack Knemeyer, first singles; Victor Johnson, second singles; Gayne Marshall and Joe Marshall, first doubles; Royall Thurston and Cortland Smith, second doubles. GOLF This is the first year of golf as a Bay League sport. The pellet chasers are doing exceptionally well. They have defeated the strong teams from Huntington Park, Woodrow Wilson, and Venice, and dropped a close match to the Santa Monica outfit. The team members are as follows: John Fricks, Phillip Starry, Byron Starry, Charles Nemoy, and Jimmy Green. one hundred forty-seven , In 1909 the girls organi2,ed a basket ' ball team. They challenged several other high schools, but the only game they were able to get was from the grammar school. The graders had a very hard time in gaining any points at all, reports the annual for that year. The score at the end of the game was somewhere about forty-three to six in favor of the High School. girls sports ♦ ♦ GIRLS ' SCHOOL TENNIS SQUAD Tied for Bay League Championship FT ' ■• r J 31! i| CHAMPION GIRLS VOLLEY BALL TEAM one hundred fifty GIRLS ' SPORTS Another record breaking year in Girls ' Sports has just been completed. This year interclass competition ha s been very keen, and the final game scores have been close. The hard training to make the teams has been amply rewarded by the pleasure and thrill of playing and by the letter I ' s, which many of the girls have received and for which the rest are working. The girls have shown their interest in athletics by signing up for the various sports. These girls not only have bettered their health by this exercise but also have learned good sportsmanship, co-operation, and clean playing. Miss Strohl, Miss Cooley, Miss Gray, Miss Gudmunsen, and Miss Beall, instructors of physical education, should be congratulated for the splendid work they have done for the promotion of girls ' sports in Inglewood High School. VOLLEY BALL Manager Eileen Hunt Instructor Miss CoOLEY This was the first sport of the year and one of the most popular. With a large number back from last year the season was quite a success. The seniors came out on top after three hard games. The juniors came next, being victorious over the under- class teams. The scores were as follows; Seniors I?, 15, 11 Juniors 9, 13, 15 Seniors 1 5, 1 5 Sophomores 12, 10 Seniors 15, 15 Freshman 8, 9 Juniors 15, 12, 15 Sophomores 9, 15, 12 Juniors 15,15 Freshman 9, 1 3 Sophomores 15, 15 Freshman 5, 12 BASKETBALL Manager Virginia Erickson Instructor Miss Gudmunsen This year the competition in basketball was so strong that for both first and second teams the games ended in a triple tie for the seniors, juniors, and sophomores. The championship which belongs to the seniors traditionally was taken by the sophomores, who surprised the school by winning a game from them. After a hard battle the seniors managed to defeat the juniors by a very small margin, making the scores as follows: Seniors 9 Juniors 8 Seniors 30 Freshmen 9 Seniors 11 Sophomores 16 Juniors 27 Sophomores 16 Juniors 21 Freshmen 9 Sophomores 26 Freshmen 16 HOCKEY Manager Marie Valerio Instructor Miss Strohl Ground-sticks — ground-sticks — ground-sticks — a pass — a dribble — a hard battle — a score — all this goes to make up a hockey game.

PLAY DAY This year Play Day will be held at El Segundo with several of the schools partici- pating. This year Inglewood hopes to return the silver cup, which was won last year, and bring back the gold cup of the victors. one hundred jiftyfour TENNIS Manager Dorothy Peterson Instructor Miss Gray As tennis is the only interscholastic sport for girls, there is much competition for membership on the team. Although this year most of the girls are participating in interscholastic tennis for the first time, they have shown splendid playing ability and a fine knowledge of the sport. The Inglewood team has taken three practice matches from other schools and has played three Bay League matches. The team hopes to bring home the Bay League Championship this year, but if they do not, they will have given their opponents many hard battles. The girls on the team are Hilary Sweet, Eva Barnes, Bette Robbins, Dorothy Koelling, Lillian Files, Margaret Briggs, Dorothy Peterson, and V ' Ona Clough. The following are the matches played : COMPTON The team started the season off with a bang by winning their first match from Compton by the score of 9 to 0. They were very steady and displayed good teamwork. Inglewood won all the games. REDONDO Redondo put up a very good fight and for a time the match was a toss up. How- ever, the girls showed their ability by finally winning the match 6 to 3. SANTA MONICA Although the Inglewood team fought hard, Santa Monica won the match by the score of 6 to 3. The girls played good tennis for their first year on the team, and Santa Monica had to toe the line to win. Inglewood is now tied with Santa Monica in the Bay League for the championship, and the final decision will be decided on May Sth, when Inglewood plays Huntington Park and Santa Monica plays Compton. one hundred fifty five BOOK THREE Memories A pious Sentinel, the Padre, faithfully guard ' ing the priceless treasures of civilization . .

THE SITE OF THE PRESENT HIGH SCHOOL CAMPUS IN 1900 HISTORY Before the coming of the white man to Centinela Valley, the spot was inhabited for years by the Indians. They camped near the Aguaje de la Centinela, springs of pure water, to enjoy their health-giving waters. These springs were located at the foot of a ravine, above which the great rock, used by the Indians as an outpost and a guide to the springs, stood on the top of the hill. This rock was called the Sentinel, and it gave to the valley its name. Its location was in the northern part of the valley, near the present site of the water tower. At the time the territory of Southern California was acquired by Spain, the area around Inglewood was inhabited rather sparsely by Indians of the Gabrielino and Yangna Rancheria groups. Missionary work among these Indians was conducted by padres sent out by the San Gabriel Mission. Father Boscania was prominent in his work among them. Most of the Indians were gathered into the mission as neophytes. The others were exterminated in wars fought against the invaders. When the pueblo of Los Angeles was founded, part of the land granted to the pueblo was settled by immigrants from Mexico. Among them was the family of Cornelio Avila. Bruno Avila, a son of Cornelio, lived on the ranch of some relatives; but Antonio Avila, another son, was granted the large Rancho de Sausal Redondo as a reward for military service. In 1844 Antonio Machado was granted the Rancho Agua de la Centinela, which comprised the land surrounding the old Sentinel Springs of the Indians. These two ranches together included the territory which is now Inglewood, one hundred jifty-nine CLASS OF 1910 The Twentieth Anniversary Class at the Annual Home-Coming, February 21, 1930. one hundred sixt i FIRST ELECTED BOARD OF TRUSTEES Elected April 7, 1905 Mr. Louis Streuber Mr. Louis Wilhelm La Dow Hyde Park Mr. Adolph Leuzinger Mr. D. W. Griffith Wiseburn Inglewood Hawthorne, Lennox, Lawndale, Wiseburn, El Segundo, and a large section of south- west Los Angeles. A year after he had received it, Antonio Machado traded his ranch to Bruno Avila, the brother of the owner of Sausal Redondo for a small vineyard and a barrel of wine. The two brothers, who now owned the entire valley, made an agree- ment to use the water from the Agua de la Centinela jointly, for these springs were the only sources of water in the stretch of land between the pueblo and the beach. In 1851 Bruno Avila was forced to mortgage his ranch to Downey and McFarland, two wealthy merchants of Los Angeles, for the amazing sum of four hundred dollars. Finally, after the land had been mortgaged a number of times, it was lost through fore- closure to another Los Angeles merchant by the name of Brent, who thus gained posses- sion of the famous ranch. In the meantime Antonio Avila had died, leaving the Rancho de Sausal Redondo to his wife and children, who eventually lost this piece also through foreclosure. The new owner, Robert Burnett, was a descendant of Scotch nobility. He succeeded in buying from Brent the Rancho Agua de la Centinela, and the two great ranches of the valley were finally joined. Probably the first man to leave a lasting influence through his development of the valley was the next owner, who bought out the interest of Robert Burnett when that gentleman returned to Scotland to claim the title of his family. This was Daniel Freeman, a Canadian settler, who was forced on account of his wife ' s health to seek a milder climate. On his new ranch in the Centinela Valley he went into the business of raising cattle and sheep, but he suffered such a loss during the drought of 1875 and 1876 that he turned his attention to dry farming, in which he was unusually successful. one hundred sixty-one Frank D.

GiLLILAND Hawthorne TRUSTEES OF THE DISTRICT, 1929-1930 THE BUILDERS OF LEUZINGER HIGH SCHOOL There was one attempt in these early days to have a real estate boom in the valley. In 1886 Mr. Freeman sold half of his holdings for six dollars and fifty cents per acre to the Centinela Inglewood Land Investment Company, who planned to sell the lots at a profit of one hundred dollars per acre. The boom, however, was a failure, and Mr. Freeman had to take back the land. The original adobe house of Rancho Agua de la Centinela still stands. It is the oldest occupied residence in Los Angeles county and was built in 1785, the same year in which the Santa Barbara Mission was built. A few blocks to the south of this historic house is the present high school campus. In the latter part of Mr. Freeman ' s life this section, then no more than a piece of farming land, was worked by a young man by the name of Adolph Leuzinger, who was to figure prominently in the history of the section he was even then working to develop. After Mr. Freeman ' s death the land went to his three heirs. Archie Freeman sold his interest to the Inglewood Water Company, who carried on the subdividing of the property and the development of the town. Mrs. Howland, the daughter of Mr. Freeman, is now living in Inglewood in the old Freeman residence. one hundred sixty-three one hundred sixty-four a: 4 -d « 6 s. one hundred sixty-five ALUMNI CHILDREN IN INGLEWOOD HIGH SCHOOL Left to Right: Franklin Snow, S 31 (Grace Eshelman Snow, ' 10); V ' Ona Clough.

The city of Inglewood, incorporated in 1908, grew slowly but steadily until the year of the earthquake, 1920. It occurred on a Monday, June twentieth, at 6:45 in the evening. The high school had closed its doors for summer vacation the Friday before; so the high school boys came out to serve as guards. The curious, the anxious, the souvenir-seekers, and the business men flocked to the city. People who had never heard of Inglewood before came out of curiosity to view the ruins, and finding that they liked the location and the climate they stayed. Since that time Inglewood has grown by leaps and bounds until today we have a population of about twenty thousand. There are five well-established banks in the community, five elementary schools, two daily and two weekly newspapers, and many up-to-date business houses and manufac- turing concerns. Inglewood is not only a city of homes but a city of industries as well. In 1900 the first school, on the site of the present Queen Street School, was built, largely through the liberal donations of Mr. Freeman. Only grade instruction was given at first, there being no high school in the valley. But on February 1, 1905, a petition to unite into a union high school district the grammar school districts of Inglewood, Wiseburn, Hyde Park, and La Dow (which districts then comprised the entire valley north of Baldwin Hills to the sea and included a large part of what is now Southwest Los Angeles) was presented to Mark Keppel, the County Superintendent of Schools. This petition had been circulated by Mr. D. W. Griffith of Inglewood. Mr. Keppel accepted the petition and called an election for February 21, at which time the people one hundred sixty-six Daddy Green, Philip Green, ' 22, and Georganna Phyllis Green, 47. Philip Green is President of the Alumni Association this year. of the districts voted their approval of the formation of the union, to he known as Inglewood Union High School District. On March 5, 1905, Mr. Keppel appointed the first Board of Trustees. The members of this original Board were Adolph Leuzinger of Wisehurn, D. W. Griffith of Inglewood, Louis Wilhelm of Hyde Park, and L. Schlegel of La Dow. At the regular election, held April 7, 1905, the same men were elected with the exception of Mr. Schlegel, who did not stand for re-election and was replaced by Louis Streuber of La Dow. School opened in the fall of 1905 in the second story of the grammar school build ' ing. Miss Mina Martin was the first principal and teacher, and there were fifteen pupils in attendance, twelve of whom were freshmen. A bond election was held April 6, 1906, at which time bonds to the amount of fifty thousand dollars for the first building were voted by a vote of 108 to 45. The campus, consisting of seven and one-half acres, was bought in July of that year for five thousand dollars, and plans and specifications of the Administration building from Architect H. Ehler were accepted December 9, 1906. The contractors, Noice Boggs, started work April 16, 1907. The Science, Household Arts, and Manual Arts buildings and the present girls ' gymna- sium were added in 1914 and the Fine Arts building and boys gymnasium in 1925. Ernest Braunton was commissioned to landscape the campus, and in 1915 we entered the Beautification Contest, winning first prize as a result of his work. School life on the present campus started in 1908, when the first building was com- pleted and the students proudly moved from the grammar school building into the new one hundred sixty-seven high school. In that year the first class, consisting of four girls and one boy, was gradu- ated. As a graduation gift the class presented the school with the large silk flag which still hangs in the auditorium. In those days when the school was very small, all students and teachers participated in the student activities which very soon began to take an important place in school life. In 1909 the first Green and White, edited by Clyde Woodworth, was published and was sold for fifteen cents. The first interscholastic sport was baseball, which was enthusias- tically supported by the entire school. An excerpt from the 1910 annual states that On March 27 the students accompanied the baseball team to Gardena on a hay ride and reported a most enjoyable day. Girls ' basketball was started, practices being held during the noon period. Our first victory in debate was won over Citrus High School on May 6, 1910. Inglewood was represented by Lura Dinsmore, ' 12, and Clayton Grice, ' 10. The question was Resolved: That the existing tarifi rates in the United States should he lowered. After the debate the students of both schools went to the gymnasium, which was then situated under the auditorium, for refreshments and to get acquainted. The class of 1910 was the first to give a senior class play, a two-act farce entitled Mr. Bob. The senior class, with the assistance of two sophomore girls, made up the cast. The first May Day program was also given in this year. On the bright and beautiful afternoon of May 27, reads the Green and White, the Girls ' Gymnasium Class gave their May Day Frolic. As the strains of music were heard, the girls, attired in white, skipped lightly out to the lawn and surrounded the May Pole. Miss Bertrice Hurlburt was crowned Queen of the May and was led to the seat of honor, from which she watched her loyal subjects wind and unwind their ribbons of green and white. During the year 1911-1912 the Student Body was organised, for the purpose of promoting the interests of the school along social, athletic, and literary lines. The Boys ' Athletic Association, the forerunner of the Big I Club, was organized in 1912. Within the next few years football, basketball, and track were added to the list of sports in which our boys participated. Great interest was taken in track, the annual reports, and at the first call the boys rushed for their rakes and hoes in order to clear the track of rocks. The schools in our league at this time were Norwalk, Downey, Inglewood, Redondo, and Compton. In 1914 letters were first awarded to the teams. They were different in form from the present I, having the four letters lUHS instead of the single initial. These were awarded to debaters as well as athletes. In 1915 Coach Badenoch came to Inglewood, and we won our first Bay League championship, which was in baseball, in the spring of that year. 1917 was a difficult year, for it was the first of the war years. The newly orga- nized Girls ' League performed its patriotic duty by presenting a vaudeville and sending the proceeds, one hundred fifty dollars, to the Red Cross Fund. The next year a second vaudeville was given, the still greater proceeds going to the same fund. The language one hundred sixt -eight classes adopted some war orphans, the school organized a Junior Red Cross, and every one put his time and efforts to the task of seeing that Inglewood High School did her bit. The boys were organised into two companies and later a ba.ttalion of cadets under Coach Badenoch. In 1918 our track team won the Bay League championship and then, instead of accepting the coveted sweaters they were entitled to receive as awards, they unselfishly elected to give the money to the Red Cross. In 1926 our present unique system of student government was drawn up and the Student Body Constitution adopted. Under this plan the control committee system and the student courts were introduced. It is significant that in our twenty-fifth year we have added a second high school to the district. The Leusinger High School in Lawndale was opened the second semester of this year and was dedicated on March 5, 1930, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the formation of the district. The building of this school is the culmination of a dream which has long been in the rninds of Mr. Green and the Trustees. May the next twenty-five years see the growth and development of the two schools beyond our expectations and our hopes. one hundred sixty-nine VALEDICTORIANS OF I.U.H.S.

THE HISTORY OF LEUZINGER HIGH SCHOOL On the twenty-seventh day of January, 1930, the doors of the Adolph Leuzinger High School were thrown open to offer new and unexplored regions of opportunity to the boys and girls of the ninth and tenth grades. The total enrollment measured two hundred and seventy-five students. We boasted of a faculty of thirteen members beside our Boys ' Dean, Mr. Simar, and the Girls ' Dean, Mrs. Darsie. The iirst meeting of the student body was held in front of the main building for the purpose of having a picture taken. This picture is to be kept for records and also for our own personal pleasure. We may look hack in twenty-five years and see the student body as it appeared in infancy. The next occasion was a Lincoln ' s Day program which was also held in front of the main building because the auditorium was still unfinished. At this assembly the new flag pole was dedicated. The Boy Scouts in the school raised a new flag and the Gettysburg Address was repeated. Those assembled sang several songs suited to the occasion. In order properly to welcome all girls to the school, a party was held for them in the cafeteria. As it was given on the fourteenth of February, the valentine idea was carried out in the decorations. The lOA girls had charge of the affair, and it was very well planned and enjoyed by every one. The foUowmg week saw the completion of our auditorium and an assembly was held in it. Daddy Green talked to us about the care of our new building and the pride we must take in it since as pioneers we must make the traditions for the school. Several days later another assembly was called to commemorate Washington ' s Birthday. We had Mr. Musatti, a famous college professor of history as the speaker. He spoke on some of Washington ' s characteristics and feats. In this assembly we were also introduced to a wonderful new concert grand piano which adds greatly to the beauty of the auditorium. In the week ending February twenty-eighth we saw the completion of every room in the building. The beautiful library furnishings were all in place and everyone was eagerly waiting for dedication night. March fifth came at last. The school was formally dedicated by a program in which the architect, contractors, and several educational leaders participated. Besides these, all men who had been or were members of the board of trustees of the Inglewood Union Hig h School District were present and seated on the stage. The honored guest of the event was Mr. Adolph Leusinger, who has been a member of the board of trustees for twenty-five years and after whom the school is named. The program was as follows: 1 .

When the program was finished, inspection of the buildings followed and light refreshments were served in the cafeteria. So closed an eventful day. During all the excitement over the dedication we had been thinking very seriously about officers. They, the leaders who were to blaze the trail, should be those who could best lead the other pioneers on the right path which would lay the foundation for the principles of the school in years to come. After petitions had been secured and filed for nominees, the election took place. The ones that were chosen to fill the oif ices are : President, Norkoma Teague; Vice-President, Richard Bateman; Secretary, Barbara Smith; Treasurer, Earl J. Brown; Yell Leader, Hideo Satow; Pianist, Norine Thompson; Song Leader, Muriel Tilden. After this there were several assemblies and cabinet meetings to start the student body machinery working. The committees which were necessary were appointed, these being the constitution, song and yell, and color committees. The colors chosen as a result of the suggestions of the color committee are blue and white. As the students were very anxious to have a school paper, they voted to adopt the Leuzinger Hi -Lights, a six page paper put out by Mrs. Forbes ' lOA English classes. In order to pay for the paper, a twenty-five cent student body ticket was sold to every student. Many interesting activities have been started in order to interest the students at the lunch hour. There is dancing or singing for the girls, and horseshoes or field practice, according to the season, for the boys. For either sex there is chess or checkers, or any other kind of a game one may wish to bring. There have been many handicaps and worries suff ' ered by the head of the staff but in spite of all, we think we have a worthwhile student body organization started. one hundred seventy-eight lOB CLASS one hundred seventy-nine one hundred eighty April the seventh we were again honored by visitors from the outside world. The Womens ' Relief Corp of Hawthorne and several members of the Grand Army of the Republic visited us at roll call and presented the student body with a beautiful silk flag. Although we do not boast of a museum, many distinguished people deem it a pleasure to visit our school and we feel quite honored that they give their time to he our guests and are so interested in our mterests. BOYS ' LEAGUE On Thursday, March 6, 1930, an assembly was called by Mr. Simar for the purpose of founding a Boys ' League. Norkoma Teague, student body president, was chairman. The meeting began with the nominations for ofi icers. For the office of president Cyril McDonald and Frank Arico were nominated. Cyril McDonald was elected. Elwin Phillips triumphed over Raymond HoUingsworth for the vice-presidency. Edwin Delaney was the only candidate for secretary, and the honor was conferred upon him. The office of treasurer was given to Ernest McCurry as he was the only candidate. The .only candidate for yell leader, Jack Wescombe, exhibited his ability. Mr. Simar talked to the boys about the league and its significance. At the second meeting of the Boys ' League on Thursday, March 27, the president was inaugurated. He administered the oath to the remaining officers. The meeting was then called to order by him and transactions of business followed. The question of having a song leader was discussed; however the matter could not be settled by the league members and was laid aside until the next meeting. The motion to have an orchestra proved to be a great success. This question won by an overwhelming vote. The meeting was then adjourned. On Friday, April 25, the third meeting of the Boys ' League was called in order to present the league ' s constitution. It was accepted with a few amendments. The unfinished affairs of the preceding meeting were brought forth. The question of having a song leader was not approved. Coach Sowers was requested to talk, and he spoke on future athletic activities at LeuEinger, warning the hoys, as do all coaches, of the importance of maintaining eligibility. A fourth meeting was called for the purpose of informing the league members about the subjects to be offered next year. Miss Ross, Mrs. Forbes, Miss Davis, and Mrs. Black spoke on the subjects which they represent. After a few yells and some announcements the meeting was adjourned. ATHLETICS AT LEUZINGER LeuEinger High is a new school. This is more evident in athletics than in other branches of activities in the school. Since it is a new school, it cannot be perfect. Leuzinger has not as yet much athletic equipment although we do have the bleachers under which gymnasium lockers, showers, and dressings rooms are located. However the gymnasium will be built, possibly not soon, but when it is built you can bet it will be a good one, a big one, an expensive one, well equipped with the latest materials and fixtures. The athletic field? It too has not been constructed. We have a vast amount of space, upon which at present are two baseball diamonds and a basketball court. Later the track, football field, and tennis courts will be constructed. The track is to be of wonderful construction, one of the best in Southern California. It will have a 220 yard straightaway and ten men may run abreast with ease. Inside of this great track will be the large football field and baseball diamond. The football field will be made this summer. one hundred eight;y-one ADOLPH LEUZINGER HIGH SCHOOL AND HER SENTINEL one hundred eightytwo Baseball has been the principal sport this spring. We have a few games scheduled with El Segundo, George Washington, and surrounding schools; and the boys are working hard to huild a fine reputation for Leuzinger. Needless to say Leujinger will have football teams next fall under the direction of Mr. Lloyd Sowers. There will probably be two teams — the A ' s and B ' s in one squad and the B ' s and C s in one. Football suits have been ordered and approximately sixty boys will be wearing Leuzinger ' s colors. CHESS CLUB The first club to be formed at Leuzinger was the Chess Club. This club was formed by Miss Tombs. In the beginning only two members could play the game; now thirty or more students can be seen moving the men from space to space. In the first tournament. Earl Brown survived with a clear record; however William Jow, Edwin Dietrich, and John Carson did some very fine playing. The club meets every Thursday after school, but during the noon period every day Miss Tombs ' room is open for the chess bugs. Ofl icers of the club have been elected. They are as follows: President, Harold Walker; Vice-President, Raymond Hollingsworth; Secretary, Donald Ruggles. The club intends to meet Inglewood in the future and also intends to have as a visitor, Cliff Sherwood, editor of the Los Angeles Times chess column. THE LEUZINGER HI LIGHTS The Leuzinger Hi Lights began as merely three sheets of paper posted every week on the bulletin board. However the demand for a real paper became greater after three or four issues and the student body voted to have a school paper under the direction of Mrs. Forbes and the lOA ' s. In three weeks the paper had more than enough advertise- ments to support it. A student body ticket for which the main attraction was the paper was put on the market. After a fourth issue twenty-seven companies had applied for advertisements. We feel sure that the paper is running quite smoothly, thanks to Mrs. Forbes and an efficient staff, which is as follows: Editor, Richard Eraser; Assistant Editor, Earl Brown; Business Manager, Muriel Tilden; Assistant Manager, Ralph Tetzlaff; Sports Editor, Raymond Stockman; News Editor, Lorraine Goodpasture; Typist, Mildred Gore; Compositors, Hideo Satow and Ernest McCurry. THE LANGUAGE CLUB A Language Club for Leuzinger High School was organized April 28, 1930, under the supervision of Miss MacKeen. Owing to the small number of Latin and Spanish students, the club was organized from both first and second years. All lA Spanish and Latin students who made grades of 1 or 2 the third quarter and all IB Spanish and Latin students who made the grade of 1 third quarter, were eligible for membership. Officers were nominated and voted upon and now the students are searching for a name that is both Spanish and Latin for the Club. The officers of the club are as follows: President, Barbara Smith; Vice-President, Helen Barr; Secretary, Trinidad Bonn; Treasurer, Winston Harder; Pianist, Vivian Sanders; Song Leader, Elizabeth Cancel- here; News Reporter, Marjorie Nelson. GIRLS ' LEAGUE The first meeting of the Girls League was held in the auditorium. At this meeting a representative from each class gave her opinion of the ideals which the Leuzinger Girls ' League should have. Mrs. Darsie then summed up these difi ' erent ideas and called for nominations for officers. The following officers were elected: President, Norine Thompson; Vice-President, Grace Murray; Treasurer, Cecelia McKinney; Secretary, Irene McKinney; Yell Leader, Rose Cancelliere; Pianist, Mary Ellen Cowden; Song Leader, Ruby Morrison. one hundred eighty-three With an impressive candle ceremony, these officers were inaugurated a few weeks later. Each girl in turn lighted her candle and gave her pledge of fidelity to the ideals of the G irls ' League. Following this the girls as a group adopted the LeusingeT Girls ' League pledge and each girl signed her name to the original pledge. The Girls ' League has tried to give every girl a chance to be of service to her school and her community. Each girl has been appointed to one committee. The com- mittees with their chairmen are as follows: Party Committee, Helen Belson; Entertain- ment at Assembly, Maxine Miller; Colors, Elizabeth Cancelliere; Decoration, Frances Taylor; Visiting Committee, Callie Teague; Hospitality, Mildred Murray; Constitution, Lucille Shupp; Service, Helen Barr; Uniform, Freda Hamilton; Noon Entertainment, Robby Crawford; P.-T.A. Nursery, Ruth Hensel; Songs, Wanda Stephenson. CLASSES lOA (S ' 32) As you may know, the lOA class of Leuzinger is the senior class. Though they are but miniature seniors, the lOA ' s are working hard to put Leuzinger on top. They are conducting the Leuzinger Hi-Lights, the school paper. All the offices of the cabinet but one are held by lOA ' s. So far it looks as if the first class to be graduated from Leuzinger will set a good record. President, Elwin Phillips; Vice-President, Edna Cox; Secretary, Irene McKinney; Treasurer, Sterling LaPlace; Yell Leader, Hideo Satow; Song Leader, Wanda Stephenson; Pianist, Vera Miller; Boys ' League Representative, George Badstubner; Girls League RepreseritativeTWiTma Parrish; Class Teachers, Mrs. Forbes and Mr. Yocum. i-x ' i j , lOB (W33) Leuzinger ' s lOB class is a live wire class. One of the lOB roll calls has twice won the famous five pound candy box contest for the P.-T.A. attendance. The lOB ' s are taking an active part in all activities. President, Mitchell Skaff, Vice-President, MaCele Records; Secretary, Lucille Shupp; Treasurer, Helen Weir; Song Leader, Elizabeth Harmon; Pianist, Vivian Sanders; Boys ' League Representative, John Carson; Girls ' League Representative, Christian Blasnek; Class Teachers, Miss Cage and Mr. Noderer. 9A (S ' 33) The 9A ' s excel in numbers. Almos t half of Leuzinger student body are 9A ' s. Their scholastic standing is very high and they are undoubtedly leaders among the student body. President, Edwin Delaney; Vice-President, Harold Walker; Secretary, Helen Barr; Treasurer, William Jow; Yell Leader, Don Osborn; Song Leader, Herbert Hadley; Pianist, Dean Borland; Class Teachers, Miss Wilcox and Mr, Beckner. 9B (W ' 34) The 9B class was fortunate this year. As all the students felt strange in a new school and new building, they did not get the usual razzing. They immediately felt at home, and already have produced some of the leaders of the school. President, Charles Currie; Vice-President, George Barton; Secretary, Robert Clark; Treasurer, Virgil Stutzman; Yell Leader, Lloyd Dennee; Pianist, Kenneth Shaffer; Song Leader, Ruby Morrison; Boys ' League Representative, Jack Lemley; Girls ' League Representa- tive, Betty Brown; Sergeant-at-Arms, Harry Kennedy; Class Teachers, Mrs. Black and Mr. Focht. one hundred eighty-jour O -C CO pa d s I one hundred eighty five -■ I ' BOOK FIVE Features x.
