CT R Ufy THIS BOOK IS ISSUED BY JUNE-NINETEEN FORTY-FOUR JAN.- NINETEEN FORTY-FIVE CLASSES JEFFERSON HIGH SCHOOL PORTLAND • OREGON Dedication NN LAND, at sea, in the air, everywhere! This phrase is highly descriptive of those courageous Jefferson alumni who are fighting to protect the land they love, the people they admire, and the school for which they have a tender spot in their hearts. It is to these brave men and women and their untireless efforts that we of the June '44 and Jan. '45 classes dedicate this book. A. D.

His was the hand to lead where, vision-filled And treasure-paved, the ways of learning wend; The ripened wisdom, and the tongue long skilled To guide, till every student called him friend. L. P. ELSIE KREBS After completing three years at Jefferson, Elsie Krebs passed away on April I, 1944. She left a living memory with her teachers and classmates of a cheerful, dependable, friendly, and one hundred per cent loyal person. Music was her first love, and she placed everything secondary to her singing. Her leadership in music and scholarship inspired many of her acquaintances. RUSSELL. WILLIAM W.

Kennedy Salt Lake, Utah Eugene, Oregon Baseball Room Rep. Class History The ingenious ideas and sparkling personalities of the members of the June 1944 class could not wait but crept out during the fifth term, in the form of the Stamp Stomp, a Student Body dance which they sponsored. Defense stamps were sold for admittance and the event was a complete success. As the terms passed, everyone once more settled down to routine work with only faint dreams of the future. These dreams came true December 19, 1943, when the class elected Bill Russell president and Claire Sering vice-president. A few days later Cleo Georgalakis was elected secretary, Bob Cooper treasurer, Betty Nalum auditor, and Wayne Strowbridge sergeant-at-arms. On February 9 the class excitedly assembled in the auditorium for the first class meeting. One of the most important results of the meeting was the election of Betty Jean Waller as editor of the Spectrum, and Jack Rogers as associate editor. Imme- diately they organized a staff and soon had the editorial work well under way. The disappointment of not having class pins vanished with the excitement of selecting Logan Markham as class photographer and then anxiously awaiting the proofs. Three weeks after our first meeting came the big social affair of the class, the Get-Together. With games, refreshments, and dancing, the class enjoyed itself to the fullest extent. On March 2 the class selected Spies and Stuff for the class play, and on April 28 and 29, under the direction of Mrs. Decker, it was successfully presented. As our high school days draw to a close, we eagerly look forward to our senior tea and the senior assembly, to the Baccalaureate service and the Commencement exercises. But the most exciting night of all will be the Senior Prom when, with smiles and tears, we will assemble for the last time as a class. With these events the June 1944 class will end its four wonderful years at Jefferson High School. President’s Message We. the class of June, 1944, having reached the climax of our high school career, would like to thank Mr. Jackson, Mr. Bosserman, Miss Flegel, and the other members of the faculty for their untiring efforts in helping us to attain what, to all of us, is one of the most important events in our lives—Graduation. Among us are potential scholars, orators, actors, athletes, and leaders. However, all the members of the class have learned the meaning of cooperation and sports- manship. Even though we have had to face wartime emergencies, we have tried to carry on the traditions and ideals of classes gone before us. Upon graduation, many of the boys and some of the girls will be going into the different branches of the armed services. But all are looking forward to the return of a peaceful and civilized community in which we may share. All of us leave with our heads high, chests out, and smiles upon our faces, but there is regret in our hearts to leave the halls of Jefferson where there was comrade- ship, friendship, and loyalty among our classmates. BILL RUSSELL Class Motto I will either find a way or make one Class Colors Cherry red and white June Nineteen Hundred Fnrty-fnur June nineteen hundred forty-four, We shall strive to keep alive America! June nineteen hundred forty-four, To keep it right, we're going to fight For America! They're defending our country for you and me So we can keep it the land of the free. Trials and knocks of life take spirit And our June class will be the last to fear it! June nineteen hundred forty-four, The friends we've known, we all bemoan Our leaving you.

Mister and Misses Jeffersonian, this is your Spectrum corre- spondent bringing you the latest news. First to the sports world: Wayne Maks, known as the Bobby Jones of the 1950's, was victorious over Betty lllig in the national golf finals. Cleo Georgalakis, the eminent history professor, prophesied in a statement to the press that Harold Ellmers' jump over Ray Alt's head would precede even the name of Dick Waldo in the annals of sports. It is reported that Flashy Don Fulgham is now teaching the fine art of marbles in Longview, Washington. Turning to the home town news, we find another victory for Jean Holeman. copy boy for the Bugle. This time she scooped Shirley Priestley, the ace reporter for the Times. The story was that Charles Holt had finally been selected to play the leading role in The Life of William Russell. which will co-star Pat Carlson. The exclusive Dog Parlor, opened recently by Pat Wetstein, is said to be harboring Audrey Smith's dachshund, which will compete against Bernadine Urbach's Russian wolfhound in the McCreery Dog Contest. Professional critics, Marilyn Johnson and Dena Goldfield, say that the dachshund is sure to win. Elaine Olson is reportedly working in Dick Randall's new Clipping Club as check girl. She was offered a part in Producer Playboy Bill Walker's new thriller, The Black Book Kid. Now for the announcement you've all been waiting for: The winner of the Strow- bridge Zoot Suiters Contest is the team of Rosemary Strait and Ruth Freed. Their mural, posed for by Don Lindstedt and Dave Kolden, may be seen at the Splidsboel Galleries. Here, listeners, is the story of the month: Jean Schofding and Jackie Levy, scrub- women at the Metrovilli Hospital, discovered that Marijean Wortman, the toast of Broadway, was injured in an accident last week. She was flying the new Yedd airplane, manufactured by Claire Useldinger, Inc., and designed by Cliff Hume. Doctor Sering reported that Miss Wortman will be back in Betty Baird’s new play. Seen recently at the Helmer Bowl was Bruce Peterson, now Colonel Peterson. A few of the other celebrities were Betty Jo Proctor. Eileen McGuire, and Marjorie Sandberg. Featured at the bowl is James Annan and his band. This week's attractions were Jean Schrumm, Arline Boehi. and Barbara Mattice. Also in the social world we find that Bonnie Brady, who has recently returned from a concert tour in Europe, has written a new musical hit. Her inspiration for this master- piece was Don Meling, Dorothy Roberts, and Betty Gill roller-skating at Lundquists Colosseum. Betty Jean Waller was last heard from in darkest South America where she was searching for a prospective customer for a last copy of the June '44 Spectrum. Accompanying her was Professor Jack Rogers, who deserted her in favor of some interesting anthropological studies among an unknown race of Amazons. An all-time high in sales supremacy was attained by Fuller Brush Man Dick Panage. He sold, with his assistant, Donna Shodahl, who carries his samples, 999 brushes this year. Your correspondent saw a reminder of the war jobs of the 1940's in our car barns. On the scene were Shi Bell and Jean Provolt, grease monkeys, dressed in overalls and sweat shirts, repairing the trolley busses. Dorothy Skinner and June Ridout were found sweeping out the busses. Switching to the national spotlight, we find Jean Wagner engaged in a public discussion with Lois Marx. The heated question is whether Casey Wood's mission to Utopia was successful. Congresswoman Geri Halbrook has stated that Foreign Diplomat Cordelia Slusher should have been sent. The opening date has finally been set for the coming World's Fair by Richard Platt, head of the advisory committee. It will be in three months if the new Delameter building is completed. This construction job is being handled by Koskella, Jr., and is under the personal direction of that construction genius, Ron Farrell. All is done except the furnishing of the two hundredth floor. The elevator operators for this skyscraper will be pilots Glenn Leisy and Henry Von Holt. On the thirty-second floor, Katie Hobson will conduct her dancing exhibition. Other exhibits in this building will be the Garoutte magic little can openers and the Reschke rockette, which is being tested by the McAllister laboratories in Huntington, Vermont. Mademoiselle Schnackenberg will bring her three famous models, Lee Prout, Sheryl Coppock, and Barbara Bailey, to her fashion salon on the eighty-ninth floor. That great pianist, Richard Moffatt, will be featured on the thirty-fifth floor. Glenn Wilson is recovering from severe burns. The injury was received when he was a little late in getting out of a public building which caught fire as he was lecturing on quick methods of escaping from burning residences. Nancy Brown in her daily column picked the fifth reunion of the class of June '44 of Jefferson High School as the outstanding event of the season. With a wish that all classes can be successful, we remain DICK BLOOMER JEANNE ROBINSON PAT COLLISON Ode to Ye June ’44 Class Johnson and Jorg Got good grades—are they lucky!

BRUCE Woodlawn Sports President’s Message Four very short years ago v e, the Class of January 1945, entered Jefferson High School as lowly freshmen. At that time we did not know that our interests would suddenly be transferred from the simple activities of school life to the complex affairs of a world in turmoil. During our sophomore year America declared war on the Axis nations. We all realized that a great change had come into our lives. Many of our friends left to protect our country, and some began working in defense plants and various other vital industries. Our courses were changed and subjects were added to the curriculum that would give us the best opportunities in a world at war. We have contributed time and money to worthy organizations and funds such as the Red Cross, War Bonds, and the War Chest. Our class has been inspired, as have all former students, by Jefferson's school spirit and by our eagerness to participate in all social and athletic affairs. Many times in the future we will look back on our high school days with pride, remembering the happy times and the many friends we enjoyed here. During our four years we have been fortunate to have the splendid guidance of Mr. Jackson and the excellent teaching of the faculty. They have helped in our studies, in our sports, and in our social events. We hope that during our short stay at Jefferson we have contributed to the great traditions and standards set by former classes and have also influenced classes yet to come.

Plagued by injuries, lack of alertness, and less than average material, Coach Waldorf saw the writing on the wall early. The pre-season Vancouver-Jeff game was one of the three upsets of the season for Jeff, as Vancouver won 6-0 on a cutback play. The writing on the wall loomed plainer to show that the old Jeff quality just wasn't there. But even at that the Demos had chance after chance to score. They dropped several would-be touchdown passes. The regular plays went for a few first downs, but Jeff didn't have what it takes to score that day. The Demos faced little opposition as they shellacked Washington 37-0 in their first game of the regular season. The Blue and Gold eleven featured Floyd Simmons and Harold Ellmers. while the defense stopped the Colonials cold. The backs all scored as well as End Ray Sering. Dick Montag was busy converting. The Franklin eleven shattered the Demos' hopes of winning the crown when they dumped Jeff 13-0 at the stadium. Venture was the Demos' jinx of the day since he picked the ball right out of three Jeffmen's hands and ran twenty yards to a touchdown, then soon skirted off tackle for twenty-eight yards to tally again. Only once did the Jeff eleven get down to Franklin's thirty-yard line. Several injuries hampered the squad as they prepared for the next game. Jeff faced Lincoln with a grim spirit and defeated them 32-0 although they had troubles the first half. Many passes were intercepted in the second half; one by Simmons, who lateralled to Ellmers, who shook the Cardinals for a touchdown. Her- manson, Jeff tackle, intercepted one pass to thunder for a touchdown. Bill Russell was lost to Jeff for the season in this game when he broke his leg. The Democrats registered the highest score of the year, winning from Commerce 42-6, mainly by Uhle's air attack. Commerce's touchdown came at the end of the game when Jeff's third team retreated to the five-yard line and the reentering first team couldn't hold them. The Teddies were next defeated 20-0 in a sea of mud at the stadium. Simmons did all the scoring with three touchdowns. The Teddies tried desperately, but injuries hampered their attack. Benson was defeated by the Blue and Gold in the muddiest game of the season, the score 29-0. This was a must win for Jeff since the Salem trip hung in the balance. In the Tech game Beckner and Simmons bolted for scoring honors and Simmons passed him when he made all three touchdowns. Hamblin registered Jeff's only blocked punt of the season and ten out of twelve Benson passes were incomplete. Ellmers sprained his ankle at an inauspicious time as Grant loomed important on the schedule. In a nocturnal contest that drew one of the largest crowds of the year, Jeff was defeated by Grant, 14-6. Grant scored twice via air mail to Art Milne, two-year all-city end. Jeff made five first downs with an air offensive and scored as a result of a pass from Uhle to Sweeney, then lateralled to Wegner, who sprinted untouched twenty-five yards for a touchdown. In the Turkey Day game at Salem, Jeff tied the Vikings 7-7. Against Jeff's probable next year's team, Salem passed to Langan, who galloped 45 yards to score. He trans- (erred to Jeff the next week and is one of the candidates for next year. After this the regulars consistently made yards but dropped passes and lost the ball on the one-yard line twice. Later, Simmons scored to even the count in the last quarter. Simmons, Inglesby, and Koch won all-star ratings. Sering and McNicholas won second string ratings. Among the returning hopefuls are Ray Sering, Harold Heer, Louie Wegner, Bob Hamblin. Dean Blair, Don Schira, Herb Luck, Bob Hagerud, Rich Kich, Bill Nuss, Don Jarvis, Don Hagen, Dale Tweed, Dick Montag, Jim Demas, Jerry Baird, Jerry Langan, and John Jordan. “B” Squad The Jefferson B football team, under the coaching of Mr. George Hibbard, had a highly successful season, ending with three wins, three losses, and one tie. The most exciting of these tussles was the Jeff-Commerce game in which both teams fought feverishly to score, but the game finally ended in a 0-0 tie. Three of the regular players joined the varsity team in its trek to Salem for the Thanksgiving Day's game but didn't get to play. These were Walter Kelly, Milton Borgardt, and Glen Cofer. The most consistent players of the season were the following: Ends, Roy Fulton and George Thompson: tackles, Joe Brummitt and Milton Borgardt: guards, Art Worden and Glen Cofer: center, Kent Winklepleck; backs, Frank Mako, Walter Kelly, Bill Kaiser, and Howard Wilson. Some of the reserves were Ed Clark, Bob Rosenfield, Bob Bailey, Jack Elliot, Charles Conn, John Essburg, Jerry Cole. Joe Inglesby, and Chuck Snyder. Most of the B squad members are planning on returning next year for varsity. Basketball The hot and cold varsity squad found themselves five steps down the ladder when the '43-'44 season closed at Jeff. The entire season was marked by upsets, with Jeff having her share. Three teams tied for first place, Washington, Grant, and Franklin. The Demos took one game from every team in the league except Grant, who sneaked by twice. The initial game of the season almost drowned pre-season championship aspira- tions. but Washington was downed 20-19 in a tilt that was a thriller all the way. Com- merce fell next by the same margin, but finally the Blue and Gold fell prey to the Generals on their floor. Probably the biggest upset of the season came when Jeff beat Franklin 35-24, to break the Quakers' 20-odd game win streak and place the Demos high among the title-aspiring quints. The first half ended with the five top teams tied for first place. Second half hostilities started with a bang, -nd Jeff came out on the short end of a 30-17 score at the hands of the Colonials. At that time the win was rated a definite upset. The Demo boys were handicapped by We jhington's small gym and Washington's concentration of height under the back-board. A win followed at the Stenogs’ expense, but then for the second time the Generals were successful in dropping Jeff by a scant four-point margin. This totaled four defeats, but still the Blue and Gold was in the running until in the second Quaker game the Jeff men lacked the spark to take a victory and Franklin won. putting Jeff definitely out of the championship chase. However. Jeff easily won over Sabin and Lincoln, and from Benson in the second overtime period. The season ended with the defeat of Jeff by the Roosevelt Roughriders on their floor. An oddity about the wins and losses lies in the fact that Jeff did not lose a game at night, lost only a single game on its home floor, and lost the remaining five games in strange gyms and in afternoon games. Outstanding performances were turned in by Don Fulgham, Cliff Hume, and Walt Kirsch. Don was the only Demo to get a first string all-city berth. He was the only all-star man with an unanimous vote. Kirsch got honorable mention. Fulgham with 218' points was tied for scoring honors with Devich of Commerce. Letter winners returning next year are Tom Hartung, Louis Wegner, Ron Esping, Walt Kirsch, and Glenn Larson. HIBBARD COACH urn FULGHAN FORWARD KIRSCH GUARD HUME FORWARD WEGNER WALDO FORWARD GUARD ALT CENTER SCHIEWE LARSEN HARTUNG PANAGE GUARD GUARD GUARD FORWARD LANGAN CENTER MANAGER Baseball Pre-season prediction for 1943 picked the Jefferson and Franklin baseball squads as contenders for the prep championships, but due to bad breaks, Jeff lost its first two games. However, after a strong comeback, the team ended the season in second place. In the first game against Commerce, Jeff's Don Johnson, now playing for the professional Kansas City Blues, pitched a beautiful no hit, no run game to win 2-0, only to have it nullified by the ineligibility of outfielder Tom Parks. The next game went to Grant's champions (5-2) when Grant knocked Johnson and Dick Maydahl from the box but were held scoreless by Wally Lamberton in the waning innings of the game. After winning from Sabin, Jeff dropped another one, this time to the Lincoln Cardinals. Following this, Benson fell before the Blue and Gold, which put the Demos in sixth place at the half-way mark. Showing a great deal of improvement, Coach Lindsay Campbell's nine rolled over the next six opponents. First came Sabin's luckless Pioneers, whom the team trampled I 1-2, aided by Tom Hartung’s pinch-hit triple. After beating Commerce 3-1, the great triumph came when Don Johnson bested Bill Deeks of Grant in a ten inning pitching duel to win 1-0. The only run of the game came when freshman shortstop, Frank Mako, tried to score from third on a weak infield hit and was safe on a hairline decision. Then Johnson pitched his second no-hit, no-run game of the season to beat Lincoln 6-0. Washington followed Lincoln's path to the tune of 8-0 with Ron Farrell and Floyd Simmons contributing to the cause with a home run apiece. Franklin's third place aggregation was stopped 4-1 by Johnson’s pitching and Walt Kirsch's timely double knocking in two runs. After dropping a loosely played game to Roosevelt 4-0, Jeff completed the season by overcoming Benson 9-2. Outstanding throughout the season were letterwinners Don Johnson, Ray Tercek, Frank Mako, Walt Kirsch, Bud Santee. Paul Foley, Ron Farrell. Chuck Urness, Dick Maydahl, Bob Schiewe, Bob Fries, Ron Wach and big Floyd Simmons. Back this year was a formidable crew composed of lettermen Walt Kirsch, Chuck Urness, Ron Farrell, Bob Schiewe, Wally Lamberton, and reserves Dick Montag and Tom Hartung. Jefferson's American Legion junior baseball team, spon- sored by Albina Engine and Machine Works, won the state championship and a trip to Billings, Montana, for the district playoff. Playing on the team were the following: Johnson, Dick Montag, Milton Borgardt, Bob Schiewe, Ray Perkins, Chuck Urness, Walt Kirsch, Frank Mako, Lou Wegner, Tom Hartung, Ken Kraus, Ron Wach, and Floyd Goetze.

BASE RIGHT FIELD CATCHER URNESS OUTFIELD Track As the opening of the 1943 track season drew near, the outlook, as far as the experts were concerned, was that Jeff's thinclads were again headed for a berth in the lower division. Although there was but one letterman returning, the squad fooled the experts by roaring through the season to cop second place in the final standings. In the city relays Jeff bowed only to Grant and Washington, emerged victor in a!l triangular meets except one, and took second place in the finals, when Ellmers won the half mile and Edmunds the vault contest. Perhaps the prize upset of the city relays was Jeff's defeat of Washington in the medley relay. Kemmer, Ellmers, Taylor, and Collins comprised the winning quartet. Other highlights of the season were the following: Harold Ellmers ran the 880-yard dash in 2:02.7, 2.5 seconds faster than the state meet, and the fastest time in the Northwest. Sering of Jeff, McMahon of Washington, and Anderson of Lincoln ran a dead heat in the 200-yard low hurdles. This is one of the few times a dead heat has been run in the Portland high school track meets. Les Steers, world champion m the high jump, visited the squad to give the high jumpers a few pointers. After the squad had hung up their spikes to end the season, there were thirteen letterwinners and two city champions on the Jefferson roster: Ray Sering, low hurdles: Lyle Schlavin, sprints: Clement Kemmer, Russell Gothard, 440; Hal Ellmers, city cham- pion, 880; Bill Taylor, mile: Jerry Thorn, broad jump; Bob Littlejohn, Dave Kolden, Glenn Leisy, high jump; Floyd Simmons, shot put; also Don Davidson and Jim Edmunds, pole vaulT champion. This year as the 1944 track season opened, Jefferson hopefully had its eyes on the throne with seven returning lettermen. The fellows also had their minds on the state meet at Corvallis which includes the Portland schools this year. Whether Jeff won or lost this season depended a great deal on the performance of each of the following in his particular event. Harold Ellmers in the half-mile; Clement Kemmer, middle distance: Lyle Schlavin in the sprints; Dave Kolden, Bob Littlejohn, and Glen Leisy in the high jump; Jerry Thorn in the broad jump; and Ray Sering in the hurdles. With some new transfers from other schools and a few fellows up from B squad, the varsity numbered about 40 members. The Grant squad came to Jefferson for an early practice relay meet and for the first time in ten years they were trounced by the score of 4-2. A dropped stick caused our loss of the mile relay by two yards, but in the 880-event Lyle Schlavin made up a two-yard deficit and won by a yard at the tape to win the race and the meet. Hal Ellmers ran a 2:06 half mile to give Jeff supporters hope that he’d break the half mile record before the year was out. WALDORF COACH SERING LOW HURDLE SCHLAVIN KEMMER SPRINTER 4 MILE ELLMERS HALF MILE DAVIDSON POLE VAULT THORN KOLDEN HIGH JUMP W1LSOW cross-country LITTLEJOHN ELLIOT HIGH JUMP CROSS-COUNTRY Junior Basketball The junior basketball team, coached by Mr. Waldorf, fought to its first undefeated championship in many years. The most difficult game in the first half was against Grant. The Generals rallied and tied the score in the final seconds of the game but in the overtime period Guy Jaques threw in a field goal to clinch the game by a 23-21 score. The junior Demos opened the second half of the season confidently. In the first game the Washington team led the entire game, only to be beaten in the closing seconds by a 23-22 count. In the second game with Grant the boys battled hard to win by a 19-17 score. The Jeff B's ended the season by handing a convincing 40-18 defeat to the Roosevelt juniors. The junior Demos scored a total of 481 points during the season as against 271 by their opponents. A big factor in the successful season was George Thompson, the team's high scorer and pivot man, who scored a total of 125 points. The other mainstays of the team were Guy Jaques, Walter Kelly, Frank Howard, Harold Meyers, Jerry Cole, Bob Blount, and Roy Fulton. “C” Basketball The Jeff C squad won the city championship this season by winning all of its seven scheduled games. The game which was supposed to be played with Franklin was for- feited to Jeff because Franklin didn’t show up for their home game. The first team, composed of Gene Tanselli, Bob Bonebrake, Keith Anderson, Jim Kraus, and Stuart Didtel, was given a scare in the last game of the season when Roosevelt managed to squeeze through with a 24-23 victory. In the other games of the season they built up early leads and gave the substitutes a chance to play. Tanselli was the spark of the team during the first three games but faltered near the end of the season. He and Jim Kraus played for the Goldenball tournament. The substitutes who played con- sistently throughout the season were Dan Montag, Bud Kerns, Wally Sandstrom, Gordon Butcher, Don Landis, and Milton Davis. Tennis The Jefferson tennis team placed third last year, with Grant in first place and Washington in second. The team's greatest handicap was lack of practice due to outside work. In the first match of the season Jeff defeated Franklin by a very close score, 2-1; in the second match Jeff won decisively over Washington 3-0. Against Benson, Jeff suffered its first setback. 1-2. Grant, led by Bill Drummond, ranking No. I player in the Northwest, defeated Jeff 3-0. The Demos defeated Roosevelt, 3-0, but were beaten in a hard-fought game by Lincoln with the same score. Malcolm Gynther, No. I man, won four and lost two games in the 1943 season's play; Tom Cook, No. 2 man, won three and lost three. The doubles team was composed of Ray Dixson and Don Sonner. The substitute doubles team was composed of Stan Sugg and Bob Baker. Returning to this year's play were Malcolm Gynther, seventh termer; Ray Dixson, sixth termer, and Bob Baker, eighth termer. JUNIOR BASKETBALL C BASKETBALL GOLF TENNIS Golf Jefferson's 1943 golf squad, under the able leadership of Miss Glenna Teeters, came out in second place in the city high school league. Due to the large percentage of enlistments of high school students into the armed forces, only four teams qualified for the league: Jefferson, Grant, Washington, and Benson. Holding .top honors last year were Wayne Stipe. Kent Winklepleck. Wayne Maks, and Norman Cochran. All four of the squad earned their letters and will return for the 1944 season. The score- board for last year read as follows: Jeff tied with Grant; Washington won over Jeff; Jeff won over Benson. “B” Track In a track season that looked like the most promising one that Jeff has seen in the past few years, Jeff's B track squad did themselves proud. They placed second in the city, with Grant taking the top position. In the city relays the distance medley team, composed of Herb Williams. Bob Littlejohn, Harry Bigler, and Glenn Wilson, took a first place. Some of the more outstanding men on the squad were Arthur Bakke, who set a new city B pole vault record of ten feet one inch; Bob Littlejohn, Howard Wilson, Herb Williams, Jerry Cole, Bob Cooper, Bud Sharp, Frank Owens, Del Randall, and Glenn Wilson. While most of last year's stock have moved up to the varsity squad this year, there are still some very good boys left from the C squad and old B squad. L Irack The C track meets of 1943 were very interesting and successful with the three toppers in succession being Washington, Jefferson, and Franklin. Some of the highlights and outstanding entries from Jeff were the following: Dean White pole-vaulted over seven feet; Dick Cowan did well in the broad jump and low hurdles; Bruce Hogan took all-city championship for high jump at the height of five feet 4 inches, followed closely by Norman Say. Other likely prospects for this year are Merle Spunaugle and Dean Clinton running the 50, 100, and 220-yard dashes, and Clinton running the 330. McKean and Spunaugle were the fastest men on the squad. Most of the broad jumping was won by Cowan, with Spunaugle as a close second. B TRACK C TRACK Autographs
