SNIFFEN John Marshall, under the guidance of its administrators and faculty, has been able to add another creditable year to its school history. Mr. Sniffen, school principal, has shown an interest in the con- tinued upward growth of the high school by pointing the way for each boy and girl to the fullest possible development that a school can offer. That each one of us should become the ultimate in manhood and womanhood, in order to reach the goal toward which we are all climbing, is the earnest desire of our principal. Mrs. Keith, girls ' vice-principal, has been able to make the girls of the school feel that her office is truly a port in time of storm. With the ideals of courtesy and service before them, the girls of John Marshall, with the aid of Mrs. Keith, are realizing their ambition. Mr. Boyd has been keeping his weather eye open for the John Marshall boys, and they have found it to be true that friendliness and fair treatment are to be received from his hands. With discrimination and care have our administrators tried to understand each individual student and his problem. MRS. KEITH MR. BOYD — 15 — MR. BUEHLER MR. OYLER MR. FOSSETT MR. STEVENS MRS. LANGSTRETH Mrs. Langstreth, registrar, has many functions to perform. She not only has charge of the attendance office but also oversees the activities of the Citizenship Court. Program guidance for in-coming BIO students is another of her specialties, as well as advising Senior boys who intend going to college. The co-ordinators, a group new to Marshall this year, include Mr. Oyler, health; Mr. Buehler, extra-curricular activities; Mr. Stevens, who is in charge of the cultural aspects of secondary edu- cation; and Mr. Fossett, counsellor to twelfth grade students who are new to Marshall. This group has for its purpose the inter-relating of the various departments in the school, bringing each into a more closely knit whole. The school clerks include a group of conscientious people, who by their willingness to be of service, have made both teachers and students grateful. They include the following: Mrs. Archey, Mr. Sniffen ' s secretary; Mrs. Hyde, senior clerk; Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Pretzinger, main office; and Mrs. D ' Amato, attendance office. Mr. Colitzen is in charge of the students ' store and does the school ' s bookkeeping. He also sells tickets for the many school activities. Doing their part to keep the school plant functioning efficiently, Mrs. Langstreth, the co-ordi- nators, and the clerks have all contributed their share. Archey, Mrs. D ' Amato. Mr — 16 — F L T Y Faculty members are hard-working people who earn and deserve the credit they receive. Some members of the teaching staff are well-known out- side the school.

Smith, boys ' gym ; Miss Anderson, girls ' gym. These teach- ers, besides outlining the curricula for their depart- ments, are a means of contact between their de- partment and the office. Mr. Allen is justly proud of his busy wood shop, for his classes turn out many beautiful and useful projects. Miss B. Anderson conducts a health-giving regime in the corrective rooms and has charge of the infirmary. Mrs. F.

Miss Bischoff ' s keen interest in current events is interpreted in her literature classes, while Mrs. Bouvier ' s students in Shakespeare hearken back to ye olden dayes. Witty Mrs. Brown does a thorough job of teaching French, while the members of her club acquire conversational ease in that language. Mrs. Buck, gym teacher, gives the girls a real workout; she also sponsors the C.A.A. Enthusiastic Mr. Buehler instructs classes in the science of life, biology. Miss Butcher helps students find out what things are made of — via chemistry. She uses no text book to accomplish this miracle. Mr. Cameron coaches swimming and the gym team, producing gym- nasts who are tops in their line. Miss Campbell and Mrs. Clewe are both experts in their field which is English. Miss Campbell is well known as the mentor of the Scholarship Society, while Mrs. Clewe ' s name has become synonymous with Vesper Services.

Miss Epter, home economics, sets a clothes example for the girls in her department to follow. Miss Feeman still numbers dancing among one of her hob- bies, although one of her school specialties is English literature. Mr. Flam ' s drafting students are easily securing positions after graduation, which speaks well for their teacher. Mr. Fossett ' s accom- plishments range from the abstract to the concrete — poetry to math. Mr. Gates has his history down to a date, and that sense of humor is appreciated also. The guiding light of the A.S.U., Mr. Gold- berg expounds principles of solid geometry and lower grade math. Mr. Hornibrook, Dr. Hummel, and Mr. Hurley are smiling examples of how to meet daily prob- lems and overcome them.

WHEELER 21 — A «.M J - ;, ' : x Wff ' Through iMP STUDENT KEITH SPAULDINC PRESIDENT Individuals in a democracy are entrusted with the responsibility of perpetuating and improving their social and political environ- ment through self-government. To fulfill this duty successfully, the individual should have experience in self-government before he exer- cises his influence on our nation ' s course of development. Hence, the double importance of student government in high school. At Marshall the Student Council plan, which was adopted for the first time during the S ' 39 term, is the implement of self-gov- ernment. Its members, elected by the student body, are empowered to make all regulations in regard to student activities and government and to take such affirmative action as is ap- proved by the principal. Candidates for mem- bership in the Student Council are selected each term by a nominating committee com- posed of a boy and a girl from each home room. The scholarship requirements for eligi- bility for candidacy for the Student Council are either a 2.2 grade average or two recom- mended grades and no failures during the pre- ceding term. All candidates must have a citizenship record of 90 merits or above. Two boys and two girls are elected from each grade to membership in the Council, making a flexi- ble and truly representative legislative body of 24 members whose officers comprise the membership of the Executive Board. The first Student Council, recognizing the importance of the precedents they must estab- lish, was very active and the end of the term KEITH SP HJLDING YVONNE DIE5TER BILLIE IRBY WESLEY WILLI AM, BOB HARKENS ENDA HOWARD MARY R.

It Established the citizenship standing of our yell leaders and sponsored the Dedication Dance; with music provided by Jack Watson ' s orches- tra, this occasion celebrated the completion of our long-awaited bleachers. The Executive Board of the first Student Council, under the sponsorship of Mr. Gil- more, was as follows: Keith Spaulding, presi- i dent; Billie Irby, vice-president; Dorothy Aus- tin, secretary; Ronald Fasold, treasurer. Spurred on by the accomplishments of the first Student Council, the S ' 40 group was 1 quick to spring into action. Not to be outdone by their predecessors, the Council sponsored a highly successful Spring Dance on April 19, with music by Johnny Roark, and themed Springtime on the Desert. As the student body had been clamoring for a new school sticker, the Council appointed a committee which chose stickers to be voted upon by the student body. Now, every Marshal lite who has a car carries this bit of publicity on his windshield. The second Executive Board was headed by President Jerry Peterson; the vice-presidency was occupied by Dorothy Austin; council scribe was Mary Rose Callicott ; and chancellor of the exchequer was Bob Porter. The first year of student government at Marshall has been successful, and, through its establishment and operation, the students at Marshall are now better prepared to serve their community upon graduation. 24 T II Z IE N S HI II IP C U R T rby.

The Citizenship Court represents the indispensable judicial branch of Marshall ' s plan of student gov- ernment. The Citizenship Court is the oldest self-government institution in Marshall, having been known as the C.C.B., previous to the adoption of our new student government plan. The members of the Court, chosen from the graduating class, have the advantage of being in direct contact with the problems of the student, and, thus, the Court is batter able to render fair judgments. From the recording of the boards, recommendations are made to prospective employers of alumni, and the acceptance of the applicant as an employe3 often depends upon the report given on scholar- ship and citizenship from the high school. The importance of the decisions of the boards cannot, therefore, be underestimated. The members of the Court are carefully chosen, because of the great responsibility they must assume as members of that organization. Those stu dents ba ' ancing the scales of justice for W ' 40 were as follows: Ramona Hines, Nancy Leonard, Mary Braddock, Billie Irby, Wesley Williams, and Jack Seargeant. Barnett Cooperman and Charles Kopp were co-presidents and Yvonne Deister and Fred Hudson were secretaries. For the S ' 40 term, the John Marshall tribunal consisted of Tys Wigman, Barbara True, Don Mayers, Jim Shelton, Lucille Pilkington, Helen Winter, and Mary Rose Callicott. Its officers were president Ronald Fasold and secretaries, Shirley Bogardus and Murray Weiss. — 25 — Sv ■ b 3V Centrist '   c- ?+ - ■ tf ' y J C ZaS- f£ 0+46 £ J rr cr +C s - t r -?fi+AS y£ y u - S 4 CLASS Elected at the close of the B 1 2 term, the officers for the S ' 40 class were a personable group of young people. The president, Bob Harkens, who gained fame as a sptech- maker, was quite busy with his numerous other activities, such as being a member of the student council and sports editor of the Barrister staff. The vice-president, Ronald Fasold, alias Cluck Cable, shone as a rising dramatic star, in addition to winning a speech contest. Petite blond Barbara True dispatched her duties as secretary in her usual capable manner. Lucille Pilkington, ably chosen as social secretary, was general chairman of the Prom com- mittee, and last, but not least, was our irrepressible red- haired Terry Nelson who performed such miracles of col- lecting the sweater money in such a short time. The hard-working sponsors of the S ' 40 class were the twelve home-room teachers, most of whom had been with their home-rooms for three years. Chairman of the Senior class was Miss Reid who piloted the students and com- mittees past dangerous rocks and rapids which were con- tinually appearing as the Senior activities progressed. Work- ing with Miss Bischoff, who was Prom chairman, were Miss Butcher, Mrs. Warren, Mrs. Crabske, and Mr. McCinnis. Incidentally the Prom was pronounced one of the most suc- cessful ever to have been presented at Marshall. As chairman of the other mam Senior activity, Sweater Day, was Mrs. Palfrey. Her able assistants were Mr. Stevens, Mrs. Clewe and Miss Epler. Busy formulating a motto for the Senior class was Dr. Hummel. Miss Hermans had the ,ob of super- vising the collections made by the class treasurer, Terry Nelson. BOB HARKENS BARBARA TRUE TERRY NELSON RONALD FASOLD LUCILLE PILKINGTON MISS REID Mrs. Crabske.

Nels One of the awards for aspiring students who desire to achieve the honorable in high school is Life Membership in the California Scholarship Federation. In order to be eligible for Life Membership, a student must belong to the Scholarship Society four out of his six terms in high school, one of which must be in the twelfth grade. When these requirements have been fulfilled, the student automati- cally becomes eligible to wear the C.S.F. pin which is presented to him by Mr. Sniffen during a spe- cial auditorium call. The proud wearers of Life Membership pins for the semester of S ' 40 were Dorothy Erbe, Evelyn Cookins, Paula Green, Bob Harkens, George Hunnex, Karl Kushe, Lucille Pilkington, Helen Winter, and Peter Yankwich. Those who will receive the coveted gold C.S.F. pin if they have made Scholarship Society grades this term are Rhoda Dunlop, Ann Edwards, Juliette Fink, Phyllis Kanter, Charlotte Knierim, Don Mayers, and Ann Warren. Another distinguishing honor given to deserving Seniors is the Ephebian award. The Ephebian Society was organized in 1918 by Dr. Albert Shiels, then superintendent of city schools. Its aim is to further good citizenship and promote civic pride in the younger generation. Today, 32 years later, this society is still carrying high the torch of scholarship, leadership, and character. The Ephebian Society is quite active in its participation in civic affairs. In 1 929 the Society partici- pated in the organization of the Division of Forestry as it is today. They dedicated a grove of trees in Elysian Park in 1932, and soon after, during City Beautification Week, they carried on projects scattered throughout the city. The society was modeled after a group of Athenians who, thousands of years ago, took oath to promote civic pride and betterment of conditions in their beloved Athens. In fact the Ephebian pledge of today is a direct translation from the Greek oath that was given so many centuries ago. The students of the S ' 40 class who have been elected to this high honor are Mary Rose Callicott, Ronald Fasold, Bob Harkens, Angela Griffin, Karl Kusche, Terry Nelson, Lucille Pilkington, Tys Wig- man, Helen Winter, and Peter Yankwich. L A HI II S T Y Today they are the mighty Seniors. Tomorrow — individuals going forward. Only yesterday they were wide-eyed, eager, uninitiated youths just beginning the third phase of their education, Senior High School. For the greater number of the S ' 40 cla . their careers at Marshall began on a warm September day of 1937. For most, their high school days will end on a brilliant day in June 1940. During those three years the S ' 40 class have seen a host of events in the passing parade. Will they ever forget the thrill of a championship football team which rolled right up to the final game with Manual only to end so crushingly for Marshall, or the following summer, when Harley Merritt, tennis star, aced his way to the city championship and secured the cup for his high school. In Sep- tember of 1938, this same class participated in the drive to purchase uniforms for the band. No class could have been happier than this one when the Barrister Band strutted on the field, resplendent in their blue and blue regalia. The Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, Ruddigore, came with the summer of 1939. This was most creditably presented, gaining favorable radio comment. At last came September 1939 and, with it, the honors and duties of being Bl 2 ' s. Could any term have been more crowded? Together, with the entire student body, they dedicated the long-awaited bleachers, and shared the joy of Barnett Cooperman ' s winning the Extemporaneous Oratorical Con- test. Nor was their term all play, for they, the S ' 40 class, under Miss Reid as chairman, launched into the ever-increasing activities of the prom, choosing class colors, motto, and sweaters. Out of the general uproar emerged Powder Blue and Cherry Red as their class colors, while they chose Forward into the Future as their class motto. Next, under Miss Bischoff ' s direction, came one of the most successful proms of Marshall ' s history with A Voyage Aboard the S. S. Prom for its theme. During the S ' 40 term one of the most important events was Sweater Day, March 14. The S ' 40 Sweater-Day program an imaginary visit to a movie set, provided drama, songs, dancing and comedy for the en- joyment ' of the Senior A ' s as they proudly displayed their Powder Blue and Cherry Red sweaters. Thus have the S ' 40 class spent their years at Marshall, and thus they will end them, on graduation day, when they will truly be looking Forward into the Future. IE CIAL EVENT FACULTY-SENIOR RECEPTION On the last Sunday before graduation, the Marshall Vesper services are presented to the school as a contribution of the Senior class. These Vespers are a Marshall tradition and take the place of the usual Baccalaureate services presented at most high schools. The Vespers for the W ' 40 class were directed by Mrs. Clewe with Mrs. Sarah Teschke assisting. The theme, Lest We Forget, was based on Biblical passages. On Tuesday, January 16, the W ' 40 Faculty-Senior Re- ception was given in the cafeteria under the direction of Mrs. Buck. Here the Faculty paid tribute to the departing class, and the Seniors had a last chance to meet and mingle with the Faculty as a whole. A short program was presented, followed by the serving of tea. According to the tradition of our receptions, small groups were formed, and the re- mainder of the afternoon was spent in pleasant conver- sation. On March 1 4, S ' 40 Senior Sweater-Day, Marshall seniors went Hollywood. The Sweater-Day program, authored by Barbara Davis, transported the audience to Set 7 of the Gem Studios. Here they saw director C.C.B. Yankwich (otherwise Peter) megaphoning a tap routine by Patti Lacey, a song by Terry Nelson, Bob Porter, and Phil Blarney, a fine monologue by Nancy Gillies and One Fine Day superbly sung by Angela Griffin. There then followed a passionate love scene between Cluck Gable and Hedy la Smooch, who were really Ronald Fasold and Barbara Davis. Polly Craus, Wally Crancer, James Barry, Robert Blood- worth, Peter Stone, Jack Wilson, Dorothy Cate, Jack Davis, Girard Schaffer, Barbara Evans, Barbara True, and Helen Winter also added to the merriment. Mrs. Palfrey and Mr. Edwards advised and directed; Mr. Stevens wrote the special Sweater-Day song which provid- ed the finale of the program.

This comparatively early election enabled the boys and girls chosen to accustom themselves to their respective duties. The president, short, dark, and handsome Jim Stotsky, will take time out from his duties to preside over his class. Vivacious Shirley Cuenther is livening up the usually obscure office of vice-president. Charming Mary Ross is already deep in her duties as class secretary. As social secre- tary, Phyllis Roche will have her hands full in the planning of future Senior social activities. Saburo Imahori ' s job of collecting class dues began a few weeks after his election, and he has been busy ever since. The sponsors for the W ' 41 class, composed of the home- room teachers, had a taste of future tasks when they co- operated with the class in preparing the S ' 40 Senior Prom. Mr. Craig, as general chairman of the sponsors, has the duty of appointing the various teachers as heads of committees. Miss Moran was Senior Prom chairman, and Miss Webster had charge of the election of the Senior class officers. Miss Anderson will head the Sweater Day committee whose task will be to plan and produce this all-important event. Before the end of the W ' 41 term each of the following teachers: Mr. Sargent, Mr. Buehler, Miss Liljedahl, and Miss Heggie will have been appointed as chairmen of some important Senior function. It is to these teachers that the bulk of the credit goes for a successful graduating class. JIM STOTSKY MARY ROSS SABURO IMAHORI SHIRLIE CUENTHER PHYLLIS ROCHE ' MR. CRAIC Mr. Craig.

Mr Buehler 39 C L A S H T Y Entering Marshall on a February day, many long years ago, the W ' 41 class fearlessly began their educational saga which will end on a February night of 1941 in a profusion of color and music. At the present time as B12 ' s, this class numbers 239 students, having developed considerably, since those first embryonic days in 1938. Way back in the dear, dead days beyond recall when the present W ' 41 class were merely known as the BlO ' s , an operetta, the Gondoliers, by Gilbert and Sullivan, was presented. This operetta, in addition to being a musical triumph, constituted the first important event of this class ' s life. The following winter was to be long remembered, for it was then that the Barrister band was supplied with uniforms through the cooperation of the entire student body. During the term of S ' 39, another operetta was presented. Again by Gilbert and Sullivan, this annual musical event was Ruddigore, and many members of this same class graced the main cast and chorus. The next term was destined to be one full of activity, for it was then that the long-awaited bleachers were dedi- cated, and the new student council system first became a reality. Among those responsible for this step forward in the government of student life at Marshall were members of the now W ' 41 class. At last the B 1 2 term arrived, and with it the thrill of electing class officers, giving the Senior Prom, and choosing class colors. When the Senior A term has become a reality, and then passed into the land of limbo, then and, only then, will this history be complete. But whatever comes to pass during the term of W ' 41 , it will most assuredly add to the honor and integrity of this outstanding class. 40 o RAYMOND ACOSTA MARGIE ADAMS CERALDINE ADOLPH DELIA ACUIRRE PAT ALBERTS RAY ANDERSON MABEL BARKER LAURA ANSELMO VALMERE BARMAN JAMES BARNES MARIE LOUISE BARRETT MARILYN BARTLETT DORIS BAUM NORMA BAXTER BETTE BEECHER MAR|ORIE BENSE BOB BICKMORE HOWARD BITTNER BEVERLY BLACKWELL MARGARET BONNECAZE BARBARA BROCKINGTON TED BROOKS THEDA BROOKS SHIRLEY JEAN BROWN CHARLES CALVER JOHN CAMPIGLIA ANGIE CAPRIOLA BETTY CARBERRY BILL CARMICHAEL CATHERINE CARONE MARIE CARROZZA DORIS CHAMBERLAIN GUY CHAMBERLAIN REG CHAMBERS BETTY COOPER Uk DOROTHY COOLAHAN CARL CHRISTIANSON BOB COSBIE RICHARD CRAWFORD WINIFRED CRILL irur y oi£ = JAMES DACE BOB DAUM FLORA DE CARO LEE DE MARCO MARGIE DE MUNIZ IRENE DENNIS LILLIAN DE VALL VICENTA DE YBARRONDO GENE DICKEY JEANNETTE DICKEY MERVIN DIRKS NEAL DYSTE BILL ELINGS JEAN ELLIS JOHN EVANS GLORIA FARINACCI MARTEL FIELD MURIEL FOLEY JIMMIE FONSECA JOHN FRANCIS tf LOIS FREDRICKSON AL FREEMAN A DON FREEMAN BETTY FRIAS MINEKO FUJIKAWA BETTY GARDNER CUMA GEORGE NAOMI GLICKMAN GLORIA GOLDMAN NORMAN GOODWIN WALKER CORHAM MARIAN GORLEY KEN GROVER SHIRLEY CUENTHER JUNE HAGBLOM CWEN HALL ALICE HANFORD B OB HARRIS BOB HAWTHORNE TED HENRY FRANCINE HIGGINS EVANITA HOLDER ROBERT HOOTON AGNES HUMPHREY PATSY HYATT SABURO IMAHORI MARY ELLA ISHAM IRAE ISLIEB IDA |AQUES DEAN KAMMERER LEONARD KANNER PHYLLIS KANTER GERTRUDE KASER EVELYN KING SAMUEL KLIMAN LEONARD KROWECH KENNETH KURTH DORIS LAMONT MARVIN LAUBER ED LAWRENCE RICHARD LEASE FARAWAYNE LEWIS GEORGE LILLY THEODORA LIMING MARIE LINDBERG CAROLA LISSONE CAROL LIVINGOOD DAVID LOBER HAL LOCKWOOD BOB LOWE LE VAL LUND jUSTINA MANCE HELEN MARCELLA PAULINE MASTRO MARGARET MATHIESEN KATHRYN McBURNEY MARGARET McFARLAND BETTE MILLER MARJORIE MONTELEONE JACK MORGAN JACK MOZEE WILLIAM MUEHLBERCER MARY BELLE MURPHY DON MUSSELWHITE MURIEL NELSON )OHN NICHELSON TED NICHOLSON  -.

As a result the Citizenship Honorary Society was formed under the chair- manship of Vernon Salisbury, S ' 39. The purpose of the society was defined by June Lanier, S ' 39, and Charles Kopp, W ' 40, in the C. H. S. Constitution as two-fold: to honor all students of outstanding citizenship and to establish a student group in- terested in school and com- munity service. The society ' s aims were to give its me mbers a keener sense of their respon- sibilities to the community and to America. It was decided to choose one faculty member each semester in recognition of outstanding school service. Mr. Stevens, Mrs. Langstreth, and Miss Tapper have received these awards. To become a member of the society a student must receive the recommendations of five instructors, one of whom is the home room sponsor, and have ninety-eight merits. Colors chosen were green and white and the society in- signia is the oak leaf and the acorn. It was designed by John Harrell and will be used on all pins and certificates. Officers for Fall, 1939, were Robert Liptz, President; Enda How- ard, Vice-President; Barbara Tripner, Secretary; and Con- rad Moss, Treasurer.

School services including work on the Safety Committee, the Senior Guard of Honor, ushering at school functions, and the Community Chest. Special work was also assigned C. H. S. during Open Central Committee of the Citizenship Honorary Society for the Community Chest. HoUSe. PlanS Were made this Spring tO promote a C.H.S. student aid scholarship for worthy Marshall students. This year ' s Community Chest Drive was planned by the C.H.S. Committee, around the central idea of a birthday celebration. The art department made a great cake. Each Home Room was given a red candle which was placed on the cake when the quota of ten cents per pupil was reached. It is grati- fying to know that the majority of our Home Rooms not only reached but exceeded their quotas. The central committee for the Community Chest was headed by Robert Liptz, president of the Citizenship Honorary Society, and Ruth Alice Class, service chairman. PUBLIC SPEAKERS ' BUREAU One of the most powerful publicity organizations in John Marshall is the Public Speakers ' Bureau. Directed by Mrs. Palfrey, the bureau consists of the students of the Debate and Public Speaking I and II classes. These groups have always given the utmost of cooperation to all of our school activi- ties. Their speakers appear in the homerooms and, with effective delivery, boost the school ' s dra- mas and operettas. Aside from these homeroom talks, stirring speeches are delivered in the auditorium in support of such causes as Fire Prevention Week, the Community Chest, etc. The members of the bureau are in- tensely trained to master all the difficulties encountered in the preparation and delivery of the different types of public speak- ing, from a moving appeal to a rib-tickling after-dinner speech.

Ignorance and poor judgment are the under- lying factors of this increasing danger. Edu- cating the public seems to be the answer to this great problem. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Oyler, the group has prepared a chart entitled, Lest We Regret. This chart, which has been distributed to home room teachers, covers automobile accidents in the United States, listing causes, types of accidents, ages of those involved, time of day at which differ- ent kinds of accidents occur, and other in- formation and statistics. It is the wish of the Committee that the teachers USe the FIRST ROW: L Swan. M. Kenyon. P. Alberts. M. Ketron. R. Hodges. SECOND ROW: L. Schwartz. V. Myers, B. Wade, N. Miller. E. Strickland. D.

Its pur- pose is to inform the students about the prevention of accidents and the promotion of safety meas- ures through an educational safety plan. TICKET TAKERS The Ticket-Takers ' organization is much more important than most Marshallites realize. In their duties, the boys of that group not only develop desirable character traits but represent one of Mar- shall ' s most important contacts with the outside world. Almost all of the alumni and friends of Mar- shall who attend our activities in sports and drama receive their tickets from these boys. Then also, when our proud Barrister A ' s and Bees go to other schools, the ticket-takers represent our school to our Northern League hosts. Mr. Boyd and Mr. Hurley, who are in charge of the Ticket- Takers ' organization, hope to de- velop in their boys responsibility and tact, as well as those traits obviously needed for such posi- tions. The handling of, and re- sponsibility for, great sums of money represents valuable ex- perience which may be of great use in business life. The ticket- takers are responsible for all the tickets sold and for all of the money received. The boys have always performed their duty with the utmost efficiency and relia- bility. — 49 — FIRST ROW: M Harris. T. Loeber, R. Smith, T. Brooks. Boyd. SECOND ROW: B. McMahon. B.

It is composed of students who receive at least 3 A ' s and 1 B on their final report card. There is also a citizenship requirement of 95 merits or above. The motto of the Society is Scholarship for Service. Since 1932, it has been Chapter 233 of the California Scholarship Federation. Miss Campbell has been the sponsor since its inception. The following were the officers for the winter term: Barnett Cooperman, president; Mary Rose Callicott, girls ' vice-president; Ronald Fasold, boys ' vice-presi- dent; Elizabeth Cooper, secretary-treasurer. In the spring the officers elected were Helen Winter, president; Muriel Nelson, girls ' vice-presidnt ; David Parker, boys ' vice-president; Alice Lee, secretary- treasurer. Once each term the group sponsors an assembly to award pins to life members of the California Scholar- ship Federation. These C.S.F. members are Senior A ' s who have belonged to the Scholarship Society for four semesters, one semester being in the Senior year. They are sometimes referred to as Sealbearers because of the gold seal received on their diploma. In the winter semester, the assembly was held Wednesday, Decem- ber 6. Those students honored were Barnett Cooper- man, Howard Keller, Robert Liptz, Zelma Pedersen. and Doris Trook. The guest speaker was Mr. Vierling Kersey, superintendent of schools.

Dorothy Erbe, Evelyn Cookins, Paula Green, Bob Harkens, George Hunnex, Karl Kusche, Lucille Pilkington, Helen Winter, and Peter Yankwich re- ceived pins at the assembly. Judge Yankwich, father of Peter, was the guest speaker. This term the Scholarship Society cabinet has been successful in sponsoring teas for John Marshall stu- dents and faculty. On April 11, Mr. Ruger held the interest of many with his talk on American Music which he illustrated with piano selections; he was assisted by John Van Leeuwen. On May 8 a Shakes- peare tea was held, presenting Mrs. Cochran and the entrants and alternates in the Shakespearean contest at Occidental College. Following tradition, the school selects the students highest in scholarship to speak at commencement. Those chosen were Evelyn Gookins, Karl Kusche, Helen Winter, Paula Green, Dorothy Erbe, and Peter Yank- wich. This is the first class ever to have had three stu- dents who maintained a straight A average throughout high school; these were Evelyn Gookins, Karl Kusche, and Helen Winter. A majority of the outstanding students of the school belong to the Scholarship organization. These include the Ephebians, class officers, members of the Citizen- ship Court, Barrister staff, and other groups. Thus, it may be seen that scholarship is an important requisite for true leadership and success.

The Student Government, sponsored by Mr, Boyd, is primarily a service organization, consisting of students with a good citizenship record who volunteer to keep the halls clear at noon. Each member gives up part of his lunch period to stay at his post. His duties consist of the following: asking all students for passes and being sure they are filled out correctly, taking the names and homerooms of students without a pass; keeping the halls clear and pupils moving. Several officers are also posted at each door to inspect lunch permits of those leaving the grounds. Two captains are chosen each term by Mr. Boyd from among those who have served several semesters and have shown ability and trustworthiness. Karl Steil and Bob Whelan were captains for the fall term and Sam Kliman and Bob Whelan for the spring semester. The Captain issues all instructions, makes out all CCB charges, inspects and checks the roll. Captains and Senior members are given Certificates of Honor. The Captains are further honored by receiving their certificates at the Award Dinner. The goal of this organization is service without the idea of reward. — 52 — LEAGUE Every girl of John Marshall is a mem ber of the Girls League, an organi zation sponsored by Mrs. Keith, assisted by Miss Nofziger, Miss Feeman, and ; Mrs. Banning.

The school ' s weekly news sheet gives announce- ments and commentaries on school events, personal patter, and news of alumni who make good. The staff and reportorial corps have preserved for posterity all the important details of life at Marshall. Thanks to Mr. Newman whose Journalism 1 1 class gathers the news, and to Mrs. Banning whose office-practice class types, mimeographs, and staples the paper, this news sheet operates with- out a deficit. The News-Bulletin was started as a Journalism II class project, but the demand for that class ' s work became so great that now over 500 pupils bring a penny every Friday for a faithful recording of school events. An air of intimacy is lent to the News-Bulletin by a large section of clever, ego-massaging personals. Those lucky Marshallites who have faithfully kept their News- Bulletins will in years to come have a complete and personal record of life at Marshall and will be able to relive their happy high school days. — 54 — ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Although we of the staff have given our best efforts toward the successful completion of this annual, we should have fallen far short of our goal if it had not been for the willing and extensive cooperation of many individuals outside the staff. The many technical details and problems which are involved in the preparation of an annual present difficulties beyond the experience of members of a staff, new to the business. We take this opportunity of expressing our appreciation to the following for the help we have received in meeting these problems. Mr. Don Steans, efficient in the printing of this annual, offered his valuable time and talents in help- ing the staff through many of the difficulties encoun- tered in lay-outs and printing of copy. Mr. Waldo Edmunds of the Mission Engraving Company deserves : our heartiest thanks, not only for the successful exe- cution of his duties in the field of engraving, but also for his welcome and valuable assistance to the staff. Mrs. Beck of the Broadway Department Store Pho- tography Bureau and photographers, Mr. Van, Mr. Scheld, and Mr. Card, have made possible, through their patience and unprecedented cooperation, the ex- cellent standard of photography found in this book. The preparation of a yearbook necessarily requires the assistance of many groups and individuals within the school. We are appreciative of the very fine co- operation we have received this year. To the Camera Club and the winners of its photogra- phy contest, Ted Hansen, Leonard Paller, and Nea Dyste, do we owe real thanks. Partic ularly are we in- debted to Ted Hansen, who gave generously of his time and efforts and who cooperated so willingly whenever the staff asked for pictures. The candid camera pictures selected for this annual typify the fine work now being done in high school photography. These pictures will, we are sure, bring back many pleasant memories in the future. To Mr. Gates, who acted as photography spon- sor during Mr. Heil ' s illness, we wish to express our appreciation. The collection of funds through subscriptions and their use in payment for the production of the year- book represent, perhaps, one of the largest business transactions in which the school is engaged. Mr. Buehler, through his expert system of organization, handled the yearbook ' s business affairs most effi- ciently. Mr. Colitzen, school business manager, aided him generously in this onerous but necessary task. Again, our thanks to all those aforementioned. 55 — T H IE A The Barrister is here! A beautifully peaceful silence pervades the first floor, and joyful smiles replace the frowns of concentration on the faces of ten happy people. These are the members of the Barrister staff. An eleventh, and most important, is their chairman and guiding light, Mrs. Warren. Pale and weak from their eight months in the word-factory, everyone concerned with the suc- cess of the Barrister is leaning back and breathing a well-earned sigh of relief. Only a few weeks ago, screams and groans could be heard coming through the transom of 101, where Mrs. Warren held forth with a panting, palpitating Barrister staff. Shouts of How do you spell ' receive ' ? mingled with the clatter of typewriters and the plop of wads of paper as they hit the wastebasket. Teachers were dragged from their classes, or wakened in the middle of the night to answer complicated queries. Members of the art staff appeared, covered with fascinating dabs of vari-colored paint. Thus, the 1940 Barrister emerged in all its glory. PHOTOGRAPHY STAFF Gates, Asst. Photography Adv.. L. Pilkington, ).

The literary staff was composed of Mary Rose Call icott who excelled as editor-in-chief ; literary editors were Barbara Tripner, Don Mayers, and Barbara Davis; Barbara Tripner, girls ' sports editor; Bob Harkens, boys ' sports editor; Dorothy Erbe and Phyllis Roche were responsible for the home room panels; Helen Winter was in charge of the Senior panels and calendar and assisted the literary editors; and Barbara True did the faculty write-ups and Senior panels. Don Stoutenborough and Stanley Lott were also elected to the staff, but, much to the regret of all, were unable to serve. BUSINESS STAFF C. Schaffer. Mr. Buehler, L. Pilkington. D.

In the form of assembly plays, and the gala three-act play which is presented each Spring and Fall, comedy, tragedy, and education are pro- vided for every Marshall student. This term the two Senior Dra- matics ' classes are under Miss Evlyn Nofziger ' s capable direc- tion. These classes are devoted primarily to production, putting to actual use the knowledge ac- quired in Drama I. Mrs. Helen Cochran, who joined the faculty last year, heads the two Drama I classes, which offer instruction in the fundamentals of drama — poise, grace, voice control, the history of the drama, and stage terminology. Thursday Evening, a delight- ful domestic comedy by Christo- pher Morley, was presented by Miss Nofziger and her Drama II class as one of the many fine dra- matic programs that has been presented for Marshall students this season. The cast included Pat O ' Donnell, Ronald Fasold, Barbara Davis, and Joan Martin. i EXCURSION MAKE ROOM FOR RODNEY The minor quarrel of a young married couple, and the manner in which their extremely unlike mothers - in - law cooperated to solve the problem provided a charming bit of entertainment. The setting, the bright, cheery kitchen of the Johns family, was designed by Miss Helen Tapper and executed by the stage crew under her direction. Coming to Marshall ' s stage from Broadway, Victor Wolfson ' s three-act play Excursion was chosen by Miss Nofziger and her Senior Dramatics ' Classes for their Spring production. Because Captain Obadiah Rich ' s belowed New York-to-Coney Island excur- sion steamer was about to be turned into a garbage scow, the captain headed his antique tub and its ill-assorted passengers toward an uninhabited island in the South Seas. Although the attempted escape was unsuccessful, the ship was saved and the passengers returned to their everyday lives with the captain ' s message of hope and courage. A glowing and heart-warming play, Excursion was chosen as one of the ten best plays of 1937, with its clever mixture of comedy, pathos, romance, and politi- cal satire, and was very warmly received at its two matinee and two evening performances. Miss Nofziger and her Drama I class presented Make Room for Rodney after only two weeks of preparation in order to give graduating students an opportunity to appear in an assembly program. The cast included Don Adams, Paul Hornbeck, Doris Baum, Ronald Fasold, Betty Beecher, Dean Kammerer, and Valmere Barman. Richard Fleming provided the wild clarinet-playing incidental to the action. Real enjoyment of the fast-moving comedy was reflected on the faces of the audience, and hearty applause cheered Miss Nofziger and the actors, repaying them for their work and worry. Dust of the Road, a symbolic Christmas play presented by Mrs. Cochran and her Drama II class, had not only fine performances, but an inspiring theme to recommend it as an ideal holiday play. Almost allegorical in nature, the play told of the everlasting and friendless wanderings of Judas Iscariot and how his interven- tion kept two people from making a mistake that they would have regretted for the rest of their lives. Reid Nibley, Loramae Taylor, Robert Bloodworth, Walker DUST OF THE ROAD Corham, and Don Reid turned in some of the best performances that Marshall audiences have ever witnessed. Described by Gilbert Miller as The crying of one of the world ' s great wrongs set to music, Tro- jan Women, a tragedy of the immortal Creek dramatist Euri- pedes, was presented by Mrs. Cochran and her Senior Dra- matics ' class. It was the first clas- sic production ever presented in our auditorium, and because of the great interest aroused by its presentation, two matinee and two evening performances were given to audiences of interested persons from all over the city. The play portrayed the emotions of the Trojan women as they waited to be apportioned to the victorious Creek soldiers after the Trojan War. An atmosphere of great pathos was sustained through- out the action by the intelligent interpretation of lines and the recurring emotional chant o, the chorus Even the setting, a clearing near the smoldering ruins that marked the spot where the once proud city had stood, reflected the tragedy of the fall of Troy. Today, when empires crumble and cities fall before the relentless force of war, the theme of the play had a most timely interest. Whether on Broadway or here at school, the stage, with its tinsel, greasepaint, and footlights is of interest not only to the actors but to everyone in the audience as well. Backstage just before a performance, and after the actors have hurriedly reviewed their lines, makeup has been checked, the stage manager has taken one last look at the props, the prompter takes her place, and the ner- vous thespians prepare to face their audience. As the last notes of the overture die away, the star- dust-glow of the houselights dims and the velvet curtains are about to part no one can fail to share in the atmosphere of electric tension and to thrill to magic fascination of life behind the footlights.

T T A G E CREW MISS TAPPER It is to Marshall ' s men behind the scenes, our gallant stage crew, to whom we should like to pay tribute and give our thanks. Laboring for long weary hours, week in and week out, they and Miss Tapper have to their account a fine record of work, expertly and quietly done. Under the direction of Miss Tapper, the stage crew has contributed greatly to the success of our plays and operettas. While all of the sets constructed by the stage crew have been excellent, there are several of which the crew and the school may well be proud. Two of their contri- butions, in particular, have been especially noteworthy. The stained glass windows made for the W ' 40 Vespers gave its setting an ethereal beauty. In Marshall ' s first attempt at Creek drama, The Trojan Women, the setting and scenic effects of the burning of Troy gave all who attended a thrill that they will not soon forget. FIRST ROW: C.

Kishiyan c The music department of a high school is o p of its most important and, at the same time, most useful divisions. This statement is proven by the fact that a course of music of some nature is re- quired for graduation. Certainly, the music section at Marshall is living up to all that could be expected of it. It has probably done as much as any other single department to publicize John Marshall High School around and about Los Angeles County. The John Marshall music depart- ment is under the experienced hand of Mr. Sargent, who has charge of the chorus classes, the voice class, the Girls ' Glee, and the Concert Choir. Cooperating with him are Mr. Ruger, instructor of music appreciation and harmony classes, and Mr. Carleton Smith, director of the band and orchestra. Mr. Sargent ' s Girls ' Glee, Concert Choir, and voice classes have always been an excellent source of vocal talent. For exam- ple, the W ' 40 Concert Choir not only participat- ed in Open House and Vespers but also gave a Christmas program at the Los Feliz Women ' s Club which reaped a large har- vest of favorable com- ment. The S ' 40 schedule for that same group has been even more active, if that is possible. In addi- tion to presenting the an- nual operetta, The Waltz Dream by Strauss, and Vespers, the Choir gave concerts at Angelus Tem- ple, B ' nai B ' rith Syna- gogue, and St. James Epis- copal Church.

In the meantime, the Girls ' Glee for W ' 40 was not as idle as might have been expected, what with its director, Mr. Sargent, so busy elsewhere. The Girls ' Glee presented a very interesting pro- gram at Open House. During the last day of Christmas Week at Marshall, the Girls ' Glee and Con- cert Choir sang carols in the halls. It was appreciated by many as being a peaceful conclusion to a week fraught with constant activity. The Girls ' Glee constantly cooperates and supplements the Concert Choir when a large number of voices is needed. The Concert Choir was organized in the S ' 39 term. Previously there had been a Girls ' Glee and a separate Boys ' Glee. Then Mr. Sargent combined the best of both Glees into one group which he called the Combined Glee. The Boys ' Glee was abolished and the Girls Glee was opened to more members. The next term the name was Ganged to Concert Choir, and thus it has remained ever Wv CONCERT CHOIR S ' 40 FIRST ROW: C.

Once again, as autumn and football season rolled around with their crisp days and bright colors, Mar- shall ' s band stepped out to further enhance the landscape with their dazzling blue and blue satin capes and set the air ringing with their tuneful selections. To the surprise and delight of all, this season ' s repertoire included such popular ditties as Over The Rainbow and The Beer Barrel Polka, in addition to several new sprightly marches. The orchestra of any school fills an indispensable place and Marshall ' s is no exception. Present at almost every occasion of any size or importance, it modestly and skillfully provides programs with musical interludes and reliefs. There are forty-seven members in the orchestra. Mr. Ruger ' s harmony course is recognized as being one of the most excellent at Marshall. Out of this class have come school songs, whole programs of beautiful and original music, and other works of extremely high merit. It is for this, and for such things like it, that the school owes a debt of gratitude to the music department. ORCHESTRA SEATED- L Baumgartner, D. Trook, J. Bensco, W. Crill, D. Gibson, D. Reeves, M.

It is to this end that the crafts classes have been brought into existence. The qualms of the originators as to the success of this venture are at rest now, for they must realize that these courses are among the most popular in the school. In the ceramics class, boys and girls are to be seen clay- modelling everything from tiny figurines to tall vases. A term of clay-building often provides a pupil with a worth- while hobby, and, as we all know, what we Americans need are more hobbies for relaxation from the daily strife of our lives. More than one boy has sported a wallet which he has created in his leather class, and more than one girl has proudly displayed a bolero and belt which she has pains- takingly fashioned. What mother ' s heart does not practically burst with joy when her s on presents her with a magnificently varnished table? Of course it is not always a table, for things pro- duced in the wood-shop vary from foot-stools to corner- cupboards, but whatever its shape, it is bound to be as near perfection as a high school student can make it. Girls in home-craft learn the housewifely arts such as knitting and weaving. Oftentimes these develop into life occupations instead of hobbies. — 66 s IE C II A L A First in scholarship, first in leadership, and first in citizenship, these are the requirements for the American Legion Awards, which are given at the end of each semester to the most outstanding boy and girl in the Senior class. This year the voting was so close that the Awards were given to three students instead of the usual two, Zelma Pedersen, Yvonne Deister, and Barnett Cooperman. The Legion Award is one of the most coveted and sought after honors which the high school has to offer. BARNETT COOPERMAN YVONNE DEISTER ZELMA PEDERSEN The 1939 city-wide Extemporaneous Oratorical Contest was won by Barnett Cooperman who far surpassed the fondest hopes of his rabid Barrister supporters. The competition took place in the Manual Arts High School Auditorium, December 8, 1939, and was sponsored by the Herald-Express newspaper. Using the topic, The Golden Rule In International Affairs, Barnett cov- ered the subject in a clear, intelligent manner. BARNETT COOPERMAN BOB GARCIA EILEEN FULLER WALTER ROBERTS Representing Marshall at the San Francisco Fair was a complete desk set made of leather by Eileen Fuller and Bob Garcia. The work was sent up by the Los Angeles Board of Education as an example of the work being done in the schools.

McCINNIS COACHES As the health of the student is the primary con- sideration of a high school, the physical education department represents an important section of the faculty. In Marshall there are eleven on whom the responsibility for the health and recreational ac- tivities of the students rest. The boys ' physical education staff is headed by Mr. Smith, an old-timer at Marshall. Aside from their regular gym classes, the remaining coaches direct the inter-high school sports as follows: Mr. McCinnis, the smiling Irishman, softball and the league champion Bee football; Mr. Zaun, a new- comer this year, varsity football and B and C track ; Mr. Riddle, our mighty little coach, B and C basketball and varsity track; Mr. Cameron, the youngest of the coaches, gymnastics and swim- ming, and Mr. Wheeler, geometry teacher, A bas- ketball and tennis. All of the women physical education instructors have regular gym classes and activities as follows: Miss Anderson, head of the girls ' physical educa- tion department and the Archery Club ; Mrs. Buck, C.A.A. and Badminton Club; Mrs. Baker, modern dancing, and Miss Davis, speedball.

The football season, one of the gayest times of the school year, found many new Marshallites out for the League games. Although Marshall ' s record was somewhat lower than usual, the enjoy- ment of the students was greater due to the new bleachers. Our team was made up of a fine group of players, as was shown by their cooperation and fighting spirit. Coach Zaun worked hard with the new squad which turned out at the beginning of the season, and, helped by old-timers such as Haibach, Codbey, Mendenhall, Tuthill, and Turdo, was able to work up a fairly good team. For our first League game, Marshall ' s efforts were surprisingly futile against a hot Lincoln J. DAVIS O. MENDENHALL — 70 — F O T L squad. The disappointment of a 25-0 defeat was lightened, however, by the enthusiasm over the new bleachers accompanied by a dedication program and an evening dance. Ever since Marshall ' s beginning, sports activities have been viewed from the hill. In the past, Marshal I ites have been so busy trying to keep their footing, and dodging those who didn ' t, that they have seen little of some of the games. Finally, after these hard-sitting years, the bleachers were planned and started. With fast construction work, the bleachers were completed in time for the first game. However, because of the huge numbers planning to help initiate our new seats, the Marshall students had to be divided. Since the Seniors were sooq to IfcaA ne choice positions were given to them B. HAIBACH F. TUTHILL P. CURRY — 71 — FRANKLIN 14 — MARSHALL The dedication program was begun by! the raising of the flag, accompanied by the combined bands of Marshall and Lincoln play- ing The Star-Spangled Banner under the] direction of Mr. Carleton Smith, Marshall ' s band leader. Keith Spaulding, Student Body President, then led the salute to the flag. Marshall s tudents celebrating the first game in their new bleachers, gave forth with the Marshall fight song led by Mr. Sargent. This ended the program for the time being. At the half-time period the Lincoln band went through their marching maneuvers under the direction of Mr. Louis W. Tozier. The game got off to a bad start for Mar- shall in the first quarter, as Lincoln scored by recovering a fumbled punt on Marshall ' s 28- yard line. Little yardage was made by Marshall, and, in the last quarter after intercepting a pass, Lincoln went over for a touchdown from the 5-yard line in the last few minutes of the game. Our next game was with the Wilson Mules. This was our first league game with Wilson, as both Wilson and Hollywood were in the Northern League for the first time this year. The Mules had played a very good game against Belmont the week before and had lost by the close score of 26-20. The Marshall eleven was within a few inches of scoring in the second quarter, as they had possession of the ball on Wilson ' s 9-yard line with four downs to score in. However, Wilson ' s line melted into a stone wall and resisted our efforts until we lost the ball on downs. In the last three minutes of the game, with the score 1 2-0, Clyde heaved a 40-yard pass which was taken by Ketron op Wilson ' s 5-yard line. A short pass to Curry, who carried the ball over, made the final score 12-6. Belmont, our next opponent, was in the top position with Lincoln at this time. The boys in green were practically all green men with few returning lettermen. Marshall, in a tie for cellar position with Hollywood, was decidedly the underdog. However, brilliant playing by quarterbacks Haibach and Clyde, and stubborn resistance by the line men, held off the Hilltoppers for a score- less tie. Numerous passes were attempted by both teams, but each squad completed only two in the entire game. Surprise after surprise turned up during the football season, and consequently it was impossible to predict the results of the Marshall-Hollywood game. While we were tying the strong Belmont team, Hollywood was doing the same with Wilson High. Hollywood lacked only time in order to score against the Mules when they were on the 1-yard line. Neither Marshall nor Hollywood had wen a game, and, in that they were playing together for the first time, a battle seemed evident. For the first three quarters there was no score. Finally, in the fourth quarter, Mar- shall started moving. By means of passes, the Barristers traveled from their own 26-yard line to the Hollywood 16. On the next play, Haibach slipped Bob Ketron a 9-yard pass which he ran over. The point which proved to be so important later in the game was suc- cessfully kicked by Parnell Curry. Hollywood, dazed but for a second by the unexpected turn of events, retaliated with a beautiful 70-yard play for a touchdown. Heffler, Hollywood quarterback, pitched the completed pass to Adler, who ran thirty-eight yards, unhindered. - . ' ■ --.■. ' GET THAT MAN 72 HOLLYWOOD 6 MARSHALL 7 to paydirt. The outcome of the game de- pended on the conversion. Silence covered the grandstand; the ball was kicked and was sailing wide of the goal posts, soon followed by the thunderous yells from the Marshall spectators. By such a small margin did Mar- shall defeat Hollywood. At the end of their fourth game, Marshall had lost two games, won one, and tied an- other. The Barristers had seemingly found their position, as was shown by the outcome of their last two games. They were now ex- pected to give the Franklin Panthers quite a fight. On the other hand, the Franklin squad had played a good season and stood third in the League, with two wins and two defeats. By beating Franklin, Marshall could have claimed the third place for the entire Northern League. The Marshall boys seemed to have hit their stride by this time and were working toward an- other victory in the Franklin game. Coach Zaun, realizing the strength of Franklin ' s passing attacks, had drilled the squad along defensive lines. Although Franklin beat us by a score of 14-0, they made only twenty-four yards on passes and both touchdowns were made on runs. Franklin ' s running attack seemed to be centered around Barnes, Number 21, playing fullback. Barnes scored both touchdowns; the first in a run through center from the 5-yar d line and the second in a sweep- ing run around end from the 44-yard line. Marshall gained 101 yards during the entire game, 63 of which were made on passes. Franklin gained 229 yards, but only 24 of which were attributed to completed passes. Thus Marshall ended a season of few victories yet one of thrills and enjoyment. In reviewing Marshall ' s past record in football, we find that the school ' s first team was organized in the fall of 1931, which was coached by Mr. McCinnis. In 1932 we had one of our strongest teams, equalled only by our 1937 Northern League team. In 1934 we became part of the Northern League. In 1935 Mr. Smith began coaching varsity football; it was during this year that we ran up high scores but lost most of our games. The squads of 1936 and 1937 were strong, with the 1937 team copping the Northern League Championship. This was Marshall ' s first team to play in the Coliseum. During 1 938 and 1 939 we were unable to keep up this record, but Marshall hopes to be among those present for the 1940 season. During this past football season, we have seen how this game can be the basis of better feeling and understanding between schools. It is not vitally important that we, or any other f school, win the city championship; it is im- portant, however, that everyone learns the ele- ments of a sportsmanlike attitude. Whether we rate high or low in league standing does not detract from the training which every boy re- ceives in learning to play fairly and to be a good winner or loser, no matter which way the game goes.

Marshall put Hollywood out of the race for first place ' it Ttheir firs ' t league game together held on Marshall ' s field. Ernie Hathaway ' s aerial accomplishments swept a path toward a 12-0 victory over the Foothillers. After the team drove the ball to the Hollywood 10 yard line, Hathaway slipped Lazarevich a short one for a tally. With this Hathaway-Lazarevich combination, Marshall scored again in the second quarter. Marshall played their last game against Franklin, in which the Panthers played one of the best games of their season. In the first play of the game, Hathaway faded back and shot Lazarevich a pass which he ran over for a touchdown. Neither team scored again, however, until the last quar- ter, when the Panthers tied the score. Becoming worried, the Barristers started putting out the old drive. Jerry Peterson, playing quarterback, returned a kick from deep in Marshall terri- tory to the Franklin 1 yard line. Jirash took the ball and ploughed through the center for successive gains. At this point Hathaway ran the remaining few yards for the deciding touchdown. The final score was 12-6, thus insuring Marshall ' s first place in the league. The small, fast, hard-fighting Bee team set a new record during the football season by tying for the Northern League Championship with Belmont. Although little is said of this group and the crowds are noHarge at their games, by hard work and with the capable coaching of Mr. McCinnis, they ended the season undefeated. THE MAN WHO RUNS AROUND T, B , L L BEE TEAM IN ACTION In the first game with Lincoln, a scoreless tie seemed evident for the first three quarters and part of the fourth. However, in the last few minutes of the game, a pass was thrown to Lazarevich, who lateralled to Spencer for the only touchdown of the game. A very dejected group of Wilson Mules was nosed off their own field by the Marshall Bees in the second game of the season. Long runs throughout the game set up a score of 26-0. Cray made the longest run of the day in the last quarter by running 50 yards to within scoring distance, Jirash making the score. Marshall met Belmont in their third league game of the season. The game was played on the Hilltopper ' s field, and until the final quarter the score remained 12-6 in Belmont ' s favor. How- ever, with their knack of pulling a game out of the fire, the Bees tied the score, 12-12. Spencer gathered in an opponent ' s pass and loped to a score, thus saving our record. LETTER MEN The Lettermen ' s Society, under the direction of Coach Smith, is one of the oldest and largest groups in Marshall. This organization is made up of all Marshall boys who have earned an athletic award. Their activities in the past have included sponsoring dances and performing many services to our school. The officers for W ' 40 were Doug Ware, president; Bill Codbey, vice-president; Bob Keefer, secretary. Those for the S ' ftO term were BilLGodbey, president; Bob Ketron, vice-president; Floyd Weaver, secretary. LETTERMEN FIRST ROW P Curry J. Exley. C. Simon. H. Kosh. D. Hasde. A. Perley. L. Lund. R.

E aS s® Last September, Coach Wheeler ex- pected a very successful basketball season with such fine players as Pierce Brooks, Jack Davis, and Bill Darling having arrived from the B squad, and with such varsity men as Alex Edesa, Ronald Fasold, and Roy Howser having returned. In fact the boys surprised Mr, Wheeler in the way they worked together both on offense and defense. The boys in blue started off their practice season with a smashing vic- tory over the San Fernando Tigers by a score of 38-18. The Barristers next opponents were the Garfield Bull- dogs whom they overpowered in the last quarter with a score of 30-25, after trailing behind during most of the game. Marshall won their third straight game by defeating Eagle Rock, the Valley Champs. Again they came from behind and in the last three minutes of the game, led by Jack Davis, Marshall ' s star guard, nosed out the boys in green by a score of 31 -27. Our giant-killers next traveled to Manual Arts and led by sharpshooter Pierce Brooks, conquered the Toilers 24-33. In the fifth practice game of the season the Barristers dropped their first game to Van Nuys with a score of 44-38 against them. Marshall met the city ' s toughest five in Loyola and lost 32-18. The next week at Fairfax our boys were overrun by the Colonials with a score of 26-22. While in this slump, Marshall was literally trounced by Belmont in their first league game, 33- 1 8. Seeking revenge the boys in blue outplayed the Wilson Mules by a close 3 1 -28. Our big boys in blue continued their victorious march by virtually exterminating the strong Franklin Panth- ers by the lopsided score of 44-18. In the most defensive battle of the season Marshall fell before Lincoln 23-13. After the mist cleared away from the Hollywood-Marshall game, the score wiped out our high hopes, as it was 43-25 against us. At the beginning of the second round, the revenging Panthers from Franklin defeated Marshall by ths ftlpjfe score of 26-24. For the A se ji T ' rme in the season Marshall laid low the ' ' Mules ' ; of Wilson, 31 -23. The coo6Vc4rion of the VARSITY FIRST ROW: F. Duquette. C Cardoza, B. Darling, J. Davis, P. Brooks, A.

Sakamo BEE AND CEE By continually fighting and working, the Bee Basketball team finished in second place in the Northern League. Their record for the season was seven wins and three defeats. This mark was surpassed only by the Hollywood five. The Bees, coached by Mr. Riddle provided a great deal of excitement at every game, with exceptionally fine playing on the part of P. Blarney, D. Adams, and J. Barry. Many of the games were won by only a few points. The scores of the first round were as follows: Marshall 24, Belmont 18; Marshall 21, Wilson 19; Marshall 37, Franklin 36; Mar- shall 25, Lincoln 24; Marshall 27, Hollywood 35.

Tennis is another of those all too few sports which can be enjoyed after school days are over. The boys who try out for the team must, of course, own their own rackets and must go to Griffith Park in order to practice, since we have no courts here at Marshall. During the last five years the tennis team has been Northern League champions three times, which is a higher average than any other sport has achieved at Marshall. The usual number of boys did not turn out at the beginning of the season this year; however, there were enough to make up a good varsity team and Bee team. It was hinted at the beginning of the season that there would be no Bee team due to the fact the two new schools coming into the league didn ' t have them. Mr. Wheeler was in favor of the Bee team and tried to keep it in the league even though it meant added work. However, this team was finally dropped, and Coach Wheeler ' s efforts were concentrated solely on the varsity squad. The practice matches showed very good possibilities for the team. Some of these were with ' , ' M JACK MILES HOWARD KOSH JIM KOPP SANFORD ALPERT 2 m k WLU TkVpV ' n ' VlSON V PHIL BLAI VlArk MI 17PP IIK I DADK JACK MOZEE MURRAY WEISS BILL McMAHON — 78 — T . m - - T- NELSON J.

The first league match was against Lincoln who were only able to take one match, second doubles, thus leaving Marshall victors 6-1. Excepting a very close score with Belmont, the Barristers plunged in, hoping to fight to some sort of victory. The result of this determined spirit was a 7-0 score for Marshall. With hopes of a perfect season, the boys met Franklin in their third league match, which they finished with another 7-0 victory in their laps. Wilson, one of the schools in our league, was our fourth opponent whom we met on the Griffith courts. In this match we won 7-0, losing only eight games in the entire match. Our final match, which was with Hollywood, was the one that would decide the Northern League champions. Playing under extreme conditions of heat, plus the additional strain of excitement, it was an elated Barrister team that trooped off the courts with a 5-2 victory safely tucked away. Thus, it was that the Barrister racqueteers, although they began the season with only two returning lettermen, developed into the Northern League champions. TENNIS TEAM FIRST ROW- C Lovell, P.

IT R A C K Coach Riddle of the A track team pro- phesied a not-too-dazzling future for this group when the results of the first two meets, those of Lincoln and Hollywood, had been tal- lied. In spite of the fact that the Marshall Barristers out-performed the orange and black Tigers to the tune of 59 Vz to 43 Vi, hopes were none too high, and so, few were overly surprised when the Hollywood meet was dropped with a score of 68 V2 to 34V2. Of the three remaining league meets, only Wilson presented a sure chance of victory. The other two meets, Belmont and Franklin, were gen- erally deemed to be what one might term, rather one-sided affairs. If popular prognosti- cations had come to pass, the Barristers should have stood third or fourth in the league which is noth- ing to shout about and yet nothing to be ashamed of. According to Coach Lloyd Riddle, guiding spirit of the A ' s , the best bet of the season was the mile relay. The eight boys who participated in the event were Pierce Brooks, Ugo Bracchi, Lee Weitkamp, Ed Kelly, Edgar Stone, Marvin Flanderka, Nesbit Frame and Bob Ketron. Forging ahead in the high hurdles was Lee Weitkamp, who broke the school record by a good nine- tenths of a second. Nipping close at his heels was Pierce Brooks. This duo, together with Al Rubio. constituted a constant itch in the sides of the visiting low-hurdlers. Outstanding in the 100 and 220 was rugged Ugo Bracchi whose performances were enough to bring the loyal rooters to their feet, shouting. A constantly improving threat in the 880 was Jack Morgan, a comparatively new man whose future looked very promising. Closely competing with him was Alan Nelson, although Nelson ' s real specialty was the mile, which he performed with no mean ability. Continually battling for top honors in the toppingest event of them all, pole vault, were Marvin Cunderson and Sparky Lohse. Doing his jumping without the aid of a long stick was Jack Cuneo who nabbed honors in the high jump. Flash of the 440 was Marvin Flanderka, who usually held the pole position in this event for the Barristers. Star of the broad-jump, Bob Ketron, will probably ring the bell even more loudly in seasons to come for he is a chap of no meagre ability. Walking away, hand in hand, with the shot, were Leonard Paller and Jack Seach L. WEITKAMP M, CUNDERSON M. FLANDERKA Coach Zaun who trained the Bees and Cees was none too happy over the first two scores of the Bee team, namely, 50 V2 to 44 V2 with Lincoln on the long end, and 50 to 45 with Holly- wood coming out on top. y) 1 Outstanding boys in the various events showed as follows: 100 yard dash, George Simon; 220, Bill Tucker; high jump, Loren Lind; pole vault, Jack Holland; broad jump, Johnny Jirash; shot put, David Haste; low hurdles, Johnny J irash ; high hurdles, Brooks Cur- ry; 660, Gene Dickey; and 1320, Bill Douthett. The more fortunate Cee team dropped neither of their first two meets. The scores were Lincoln 18 1 3 to Mar- shall 57 2 3 and Hollywood 36 to Mar- shall 41. Stars for the 100 yard dash were Jack Couchenour and Jimmy Flanders. Dividing top honors in the 660 were Al Warner and Jimmy Watkins. High jump aces were Chuck Mac- Kenzie and Al Warner, while the broad jumpers were Del Francia and Tom DePaolo. In the bamboo event, toppers were Chuck MacKenzie, Del Francia, and Jim DeMinico. Firsts in the shot went to Pat Culbertson. The low hurdle stars for S ' 40 were Ken Soda and Gene Ackerman. BEE- FIRST ROW: B. Whelan, C. Dickey, P. Fierro. |. Hollen, D. Mortimer. D. Haste. C. Weir.

Rush B Bickn lore Peterson ' Capta Three years ago Marshall ' s first gym team was organized by Mr. Doig, former U.S.C. gym team captain. Although their first year was not very successful, the team was met with a great deal of enthusiasm by the student body. This year under Mr. Cameron ' s excellent coaching, the Barristers reached the position of North- ern League Champs. Our scores for the season were Wilson 31 — Marshall 104; Franklin 15 — Mar- shall 1 19; Lincoln 70V 2 — Marshall 64 Vi; Belmont 67— Marshall 68; Hollywood 29— Marshall 106. The Barristers, losing the Lincoln meet during the season turned around to beat Lincoln decisively in the league finals at Hollywood, in which Marshall took first place. The scores for this meet were Wilson 4; Franklin 10; Hollywood 12; Lincoln I8V2; Belmont 44 V2 ; and Marshall 46. Those on the Marshall team who qualified for the c ity semi-finals were Kurth, Reid, Kishiyama — rope; Cosbie, Lober — clubs; Harkens — free exercise; Peterson, Spencer — parallel bars; Hoheisel, Parker, Ino, MacKenzie — horizontal bar; Kammerer, Wigman — long horse; Ashton — tumbling; and Ino again on the rings. Marshall, who was represented by 10 boys in the all-city meet, took sixth place. These boys were Kurth, Kishiyama, Peterson, Cosbie, Hemmes, Hoheisel, Parker, MacKenzie, Kammerer, and Ino. The four who placed were Dean Kammerer, taking first on the long horse; Kay Ino, tying for second on the rings; and BobtHemmes and Bob Cosbie copping fourth and fifth places respectively in the clubs. w Ml -Mov I 8,° N MARSHALL ' S MERMEN $■££ , Most high schools sports, although beneficial and interesting to the participant, are of little value to a student after his school days are over. However, swimming is one of the few sports to which this does not apply. ' There are few schools in Los Angeles which are equipped with a swimming pool. Although handicapped by this fact, enough schools have worked up a swimming team to permit a full season of meets. This term there were seven other schools with whom we competed. In our first meet, with Beverly Hills, we lost the A and B and won the C ' s. Our second meet with Mount Carmel was a com- plete victory for Marshall in all classes. Leuzinger stepped in the next week and swamped our A ' s, leaving us the B and C victories. Complete defeat came upon us in the L. A. High meet in which we lost the A, B, and C. Holly- wood, our next opponents, defeated our A ' s but lost to our B ' s and C ' s. In the following meet with Black-Foxe we entered only the varsity team which lost by the large score of 58-18. This inci- dent left us weak for the oncoming Huntington Park boys, who tripled their victory with A, B, and C wins. 7 Two more meets are to be held, one with vk ce High and one, a triangle meet with Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, and Marshall High Schools. This sport is gaining rapidly, and v jjfhd©f the ]irectioh of Coach Cameron, it is e ecte rfo becor a strong part of our sports program. FIRST ROW: V. B. Carmichael, L O. Schrater, B.

Sir Marshall ' s varsity nine ' ' were brushed out of the running this season by winning only one of their games. Although they whipped through practice season undefeated, they were unable to cope with the other hard-hitting Northern League teams. Our Bee squad finished more successfully, and, though both Hollywood and Franklin won their games with us, our Bees copped second place in the Northern League. This is only the second year of Softball here at- Marshall and the first in which a Bee team was used; however, under Mr. McGinnis ' supervision both the size of the crowds and the number of wins are expected to increase. •B BASEEALL F.

Fundamentally, it is teaching the girls tolerance, friendship, clean play, and the joy of a healthy body. The girls elect officers and heads of sports who, together with the sponsor, Mrs. Alice Buck, make up the executive board. The girls also elect peppy cheer-leaders to carry them through the play-days and spreads. Then there is the treasured C.A. A. letter which is the apple of almost every feminine eye, and which may be earned through faithful and earnest attendance. Starting off the W ' 40 semester with the proverbial bang was a very successful C.A. A. rally held in the girls ' gym after school on October 5. The board had felt that the new girls did not know enough about the G.A.A., and so the rally was originated to inform all and sundry as to how they could earn letters, enter sports, and get participation credits. The new president, Dorothy Hisserich, being absent, the new vice president-treasurer, Doris Lako, took charge. She introduced the sponsor, Mrs. Buck, and members of the new board. Talks were given on the different sports. Then the cheer- LETTERCIRLS W ' 40 FIRST ROW. L. Pilkington. |. Tangalakis. B. Thomas. M. R. SECOND ROW: M. Barker. B. Williams, J. Pons. E. Burfeind.

As the girls left, they were asked to sign up for the sport in which they wished to participate. On October 30, after school, had any- one chanced to be around the girls ' gym, he would have seen queerly garbed figures flitting hither and yon, making a great deal of commotion. Had that person been in the know, he would have quickly realized that the much- talked of C.A.A. Hallowe ' en party was in full swing. Contented looks on the faces of the girls who wandered home after being stuffed with delicious pun- kin pie and such, verified the fact that one more G.A.A. effort had come to a successful conclusion. About 1 :30 on a brisk November day, the 30th to be exact, bus-loads of pulchritudinous, bare- legged lassies poured onto the girls ' field at Marshall. As each new group of recruits arrived, they were greeted with ear-splitting yells, for it was a C.A.A. playday, and the theme was Harvest Fes- tival. For a little over three hours, the girls from Marshall were willing hostesses to their C.A.A. guests from Hollywood, North Hollywood, and Garfield. If we can take the kitchen report as an approximate barometer of the success of the playday, then a good time was had by all, for there was no food left. Across the field at lunch-time on December 7 trooped a crowd of eye-filling girls. They piled into busses and set out amidst cheers and whistles. They were the C.A.A., and they were off to Toy- land, Fairfax playday, where they endeavored, and successfully, too, to uphold the honor of John Marshall in competition with Eagle Rock, Garfield, Lincoln, and their hostesses from Fairfax. The installation of the new officers took place January 25 after school on the gym floor. The new president and the rest of the newly-elected board took their oaths of office and were intro- .

The sports for the W ' 40 term were basketball, hockey, volleyball, badminton, and archery. Jeanne Pons was elected head of basketball and, rightly so, for it is well known that Jeanne is one of the finest guards that Marshall has ever known. Out in front, in the rather strenuous game of hockey, was Betty Williams, as fast and as sharp-witted a player as ever wore a shin-guard. Then there was volleyball which was ably and gracefully presided over by Barbara Evans. Nor shall we ever forget blond Esther Wennstrom, head of badminton, who swung such a mean racket. And last but not least was archery, probably one of the most popular sports at Marshall, which was headed by our vivacious Marjorie Stevens. These girls as heads of sports, together with Mrs. Buck and the rest of the executive board, handled the affairs very successfully for the W ' 40 term of C.A.A. The rest of the extremely active board for that term consisted of Dorothy Hisserich, president; Doris Lako, vice president-treasurer; Jennie Tangalakis, corresponding secretary; Alice Lee, recording secretary; Eleanor Vaccanello. historian; and Yvonne Spencer, Lettergirls ' president. The total membership for the winter term was 197 girls, which is a good turn-out in any girl ' s language. The prospects for a lively S ' 40 term seem very good at this time. Things got off to a flying start at the rally during which were elected the cheer-leaders. Patti Lacey and Valmere Barman. The newly- elected board was as follows: Jennie Tangalakis, president ; Mabel Barker, vice-president-treasurer; Doris Lako, corresponding secretary; Alice Lee, historian; Mineko Fujikawa, head of badminton ; Ida Jaques, head of speedball; and Cwen Hall, head of volleyball. As it is yet too early to say who will star in the different activities, and, to what playdays the group will be invited, it is safe to predict that what- ever they do, and wherever they go, they will have fun, for such is the tradition and privilege of every C.A.A. girl. Thus C.A.A. marches on! Health, happiness, and good fellowship come to those girls who have taken advantage of this opportunity which our school offers. t oi=tM C. A. A. HALLOWEEN PARTY 87 AlV- ( W of IP b y ■■ y f { u -£. Th ' ' u HOINM « UDV0 -c t°1 C H Id II S T Ml A IE IE Marshallites, entering the main building on the Mon- day of Christmas week, were delighted to find a towering tree covered with decora- tions and colored lights. Al- though there were actually two weeks until December 25, the delicious fir tree scent and shining tinsel made Christmas seem much nearer. The season was prefaced by a talent review, at which free-will offerings were tak- en for the Girls ' League fund. Headed by Miss Nofziger, the League planned Christ- mas boxes for deserving fam- ilies and practically every home room offered to fill one. The Girls ' League Cabinet arranged for sixteen extra boxes which were filled through proceeds from a talent re- view and an ingenious ham-can, which was placed in the main office to receive the nickels and dimes of gen- erous contributors. To further swell the fund for the boxes, canned goods and donations were asked as admission to a special daylight dance that greatly added to the enjoyment of the students during this holiday week. After being gaily deco- rated, each home room box was topped with a Cudahy Christmas ham and placed in the cafeteria to await delivery. The day before vacation began, stu- dents and teachers were gay with the Christmas spirit. Studies went on as usual, but whole classes could be seen pausing in their work to listen to the Glee Clubs singing traditional Christmas carols. World and personal problems alike were forgotten for the moment, as everyone wished everyone else a Merry Christmas. VESTA CLUB FIRST ROW: R. Capnola, M. Delgado, B. Mclntyre, B. Baudisch, P.

In clubs a student may relax from a strenuous school day and lose himself in some activity. As well as being centers for enjoyment, clubs offer the up-and-coming young person experience in leadership and the ability to get along with people. These extra-curricular activities will be as valuable a training as much of the subject matter taught in classes. At Marshall there are several organizations in which students with common interests may make friends and develop those interests. For girls who never would have it said of them, if she could only cook, there is the Vesta Club under the guidance of Miss Liljedahl. There, the girls master the culinary angle of that all-important subject: How to Snare the Unsuspecting Male. They also learn the intricacies of successful en- tertainment. The O.C.O.A. Club, sponsored during W ' 40 by Mr. Persons and in S ' 40 by Mr. Stevens, represents an opportunity for upper division girls and boys to partici- pate in divers social and cultural activities. As well as lending an ear to the wise coun- sel of Emily Post, the club attends plays, concerts, and dinner dances. The French Club, under the direction of Mrs. Brown, offers the interested stu- dent a chance to supplement his study of French with a taste of French culture and often of French food. The club develops the conversational ability of its members and acquaints them with the land whose tongue they are learning. FRENCH CLUB FIRST ROW: D. Mayers. J. Stoner, C. Green, A. Kaner, M.

The club has a darkroom for its members, many of whom are responsible for the fine candid shots in this annual. At the Round Table Discussion Club, a new club this year, pupils may air their views on the economic, social, and governmental problems of the day. The club, sponsored by Mr. Edwards, meets every Friday before school. Under the guidance of Mr. Goldberg, a John Marshall chapter of the American Students ' Union has been established. Speakers are invited to give talks on world affairs and social conditions. The Chess Club is one of the oldest organizations in the school. Within its portals those brainy souls who find enjoyment in hours of concentration over a chessboard may thus indulge them- selves. In its competitions with other schools, the club has maintained a very fine record. Thus are afforded at Marshall, outlets for natural interests and exceptional abilities. Okrand, P.

Dear Donna : Judging by your last letter, schools back East must be quite different from ours here in California. As Jack and I have been taking some candid shots, I ' m sending some of them to you so that you can see what makes us tick here at Marshall. The first picture is one of the entrances. You can ' t see the nice, wide, green lawns, but those interesting splotches are Marshall students entering the hallowed halls. The second picture shows the lockers, which are hur- riedly ransacked at intervals during the day. Each time the boy who has his locker next to mine opens his door, every book he owns falls out. If somebody told him about the law of gravity, he ' d probably blame the president for letting Congress pass it! Here ' s the library in action. This shows you how hard Marshall students study. Can ' t you just see the steam rising as they slave over them thar history books? We had an aud call the other day, and since Jack couldn ' t get a picture of the play we put on, he took one of the line which forms to the right. This is it! This is chemistry class, where all the famous brains reside. Here ' s a poem I wrote in its honor — What are the tinkling test tubes for In a chemistry class? They ' re things you have to fill with stuff If you expect to pass! Prussic acid, HuO, and nice NaCl All serve but to remind us that Chem lab is — er — it ' s swell! And what do all the students do With their chloride and their zinc Besides just blowing up the joint? Confidentially, they think! The prize package in chemistry class is a quaint lad named Herman Cumpocs. He ' s a track star, too! When he first joined the team, the coach told him to run toward the 100-yard dash marker. Herman did it in a flash, but no one had told him to stop, so he kept right on goin He almost got to Vine Street before they finally per- suaded him to stop! — 92 — HI A L II IF E I must tell you about the play we gave about a month ago. We had more fun than a blue-toed prophet doirtg it, but we slaved like dogs, too. There were four in the cast, the prompter and the director, which made it chummy. When we tried out for our parts, I got the part of one of the mothers-in-law. It was quite a thing — of course, not as gaggy as a person who was brought up on Jack Benny would like, but good. We had to work nights and after school, and the lines were so much alike that we kept saying the right thing at the wrong time. Some- times rehearsals were a scream. One line in the play was Ye gods, Ethel has cracked the Copenhagen platter! Without fail the boy who had the husband ' s part would say Ethel has coked the Crapenhagen platter and we ' d all just roar. Despite the difficulties, when we gave it, the audience loved it, and not a mistake was made! As Pinocchio says: An actor ' s life for me. It ' s a lot of work, but I love it. And now art class. Herman Cumpocs was posing, and the artists managed to draw everything but his ears and that terrible shirt of his. He surpasses even Bing Crosby in sartorial horror! Our art department has won lots of prizes, and they do the dance decorations, and the signs and banners which festoon the halls and campus. The next picture is something or other Jack made in wood shop. At Marshall this class could almost be called an art class, as the things the lads make there aren ' t only useful, but good to look at, too. Ah — here is everyone ' s favorite period, lunch! This is the outside lunch line. Inside we have a cafeteria, where hot and succulent viands are to be had. Here ' s a typical home room, and here ' s ' a typical poem about it. (I ' m just incurable!) We give our views, which irk or please, We hear the news, get C.C.B. ' s, Converse with teacher, smile at friends, Until the bell, when home room ends. Next is study hall, where tomorrow ' s home-work is done today. Students go in carrying huge stacks of books and a worried look, and come out with the same books, but minus the scowl. A very handy class! Ml A K HI A L L L I IF IE This is the line-up in girls ' gym. The daily diving in and out of clothes, dashing about with basketballs and bats, and general airing undergone by gym class members keep Marshall bookworms from becoming anemic, myopic, and flabby, and give the more athletic members of the student body a chance to indulge in their favorite sport — sports! We never realized how much went on at Marshall after school is over, until we came back one afternoon to shoot some pictures. We traipsed through deserted halls and found the custodians getting things spick and span, the cafeteria kitchen buzzing with activity, and the garden- ers working to make our campus more beautiful than ever before. I ' ll have to stop writing, as home-work is calling, and when home-work calls, it CALLS! I can ' t think of any better way to close my letter than with the description of the real end of a Marshall day that I did for a lit class last term. Here ' tis — Not until sunset, when the gardener finishes his duties, is the day really ended. When night falls over the buildings, and the watchman ' s flashlight casts inter- mittent beams of light through the darkened corridors, only the echoes of daytime laughter and activity remain in the shadowed halls. On the campus, small birds see Lg peace on the face of the statue of the great man for whom our school was named, as, awaiting the next school day, John Marshall sleeps. Say Hello to Yehudi for me, and write soon. Your obedient servant, Barbara Orson Davis. P.S. Just as I was finishing your letter the doorbell rang. Mother answered it, and what do you think? There was a box of Cee-orgeous flowers, and an invitation to the Prom. And who were they from? You guessed it — Herman! I ' m beginning to think he ' s not so bad after all! He IS cute, even if he is dead from the neck up. Flowers, eh ? Well, well. Excuse me a minute. I ' m going to go and phone Herman ! ! — 94 — MARS HI ALL AS HOST There are two major events at John Marshall in which the faculty and the student body have the opportunity to act as hosts — Open House and the Award Dinner. The aim of Open House is to acquaint the community with the work, aims, and accomplishments of the students and faculty of John Marshall High. Demonstrations are given of the activi- ties of the students in the fields of sports, science, art, and the industrial arts. Twice a year this occasion brings together the teachers and parents so that they may be able to guide and help the student more efficiently. The last, but perhaps most eagerly awaited social function of the term is J } % ? OPEN Hopfbr ' the Award Dinner. The purpose of the occasion is the presentation of athletic letters and of awards for contest winners, and acknowledgements for services to the school for which the student receives no grade. Here, public recognition is given for these contributions which have made, and will con- tinue to make, Marshall a progressive high school. Today, leadership and cooperation are two indispensable elements in the relations between any high school and community. In the beginning, when this section of the city was an expanse of vacant lots, Marshall offered leadership, and, in return, the community gave its cooperation. It has been ever so, and we, as a group, are grateful. to •: W AWARD DINNER -95 — N L f « i hm Millicent Abrai Barbara Allen Beth Allen Charles Anders Vincent Ander Barbara Barker Evelyn Barnard Nona Bates Gabriel Bayz Ins Black Lucille Bleiberg Alice Bloodworth Jercme Bowen Barbara Borton Brock Brockway David Brown Bill Bruno William Budd Maurice Budrick Vincent Campos Bill Canning Marjone Carson Betty Carter Shirley Colburn Kathleen Contant Jay Coon Don Cooper Betty Conn Thomas Curtis Betty Davidson Mary Ann Day Edward De Donato Gloria Delgado |immy Dunn Lorraine Eaton Mary Economos Lorena Eggleston Betty Jean Eichorr Clifford Fevog Jeanne Few Farrand Field Tony Figueroa Harry Fike Beverly Cerhar Shirley Gibson Margie Glick Irving Gluck Bill Golden Colleen Guadagna Mary Lois Hamilton John Hansen Helen Hardesty Phillip Hartenstein John Heydorff Haruz Hoelzel Haruye Imahori Charles Isted Robert Iwakami Richard Kazie James Keagy Bobby Kimball Dorothy Kimberln Audrey Krakt James Lawrence, |r Bertram Lawrie Leslie Laymon E ' eanor Lehnkering Violet Len Margaret Losh Ruth Lubarsky Romanzo Lymai Helen Lyons Shirley Macdole John Arconti Yvonne Arundell Marilynn Austin Noel Axtell Betty Bagwell Francis Becheley Lois Benson Shirley Berkus Jack Berenberg Fran Theresa Brady Elaine Brigham Gerald Burke Elnor Bush Jack Campbell Patricia Campbell Ray Campbell Lorraine Caster MafaldaCirling Fred Clifford Cecily Cobb Leanore Cobb Juliet Corona Joy Cowan Ruth Cox Dorothy Crosby Gloria Cueto Al DePaola Frank Disparte James Dooley Richard Dummei Russell Duncan Gertrude Evans Robert Faxon Jo Ann Fellows George Fergusor Dorothy Fetter Fred Fishel G ' adys Fishel Allen Francis Leonard Fried Stephen Gall Bill Cores Victor Goudey Bob Granas Jeanette Grandn Mildred Green Carl Havens Margaret Hawes Jack Heller Gloria Januska Beatrice Job Grace Johnson Avonne Jones Patricia Jones Lawrence Kuhn Geraldine Kuntz Kenneth Lane Theus Langlie Lois Lathan Harold LeSieur Marilyn Letts Adrienne Lingle Robert Lloyd Billy Longworth Helen MacGowan Madelyn Madsen Albert Mallicoat Lila Maple Don Martin 96 E Harriet Martin Lucile Mashler Margaret Mather Virginia Mathews Marilyn Melvin Bob Mosier Jac queline Mouritsen Henry Myers Robert McCoy Virginia Neil Emma Oveso Phil Owings Thomas Parmley Cerne Peluffo Walter Pendexter Jean Reep Charles Repp Marvin Richmar Carlton Risdon LeRoy Rivkin Manabu Sakamoto Louise Schlesinger Ralph Schneider Laura Schwartz Franklin Scott Myrtle Smith Robert Spencer Ulalee Springfield Bill Stebner Tyson Swafford Ralph Tetro Carole Thompson John Tierney Peggy Tomasini Donald Touchen Jackie Vaneman Astnd Van Leeuwen Joe Vargas Mario Villa Cordon Walker Carolyn Warner Margaret Warracks James Watkins Harriet Weaver Jack Webster Jean Woodress Carol Woodward Warren Woodward Bill Worthington June Young Morton Sterling Melvin Stevenson Clifford Meyers Harold Milbury Fred Miller Robert Miller Bud Mills Barbara Nibley Robert Nielsen Barbara Noble Joyce Narmoyle Hartley Oddont Nellie Pizzinat Jerry Pressman Marie Pritchard Martha Psenner Charlene Ramp Grace Robillard Cale Robinson Gloria Romano Betty Ross Joe Rosso Ruth Seelbinder Elliot Shapiro Aranelle Siegerman Marjorie Simpson Marjory Szabo Barbara Talbert Jack Foreman Lucille Terry Gail Teske Lillian Troutwine Arthur Turney Edythe Uden Ben Valenquela Robert Van Dusen Bill Wallis Virginia Walters Virginia Walton Leslie Walton Richard Wann Frank Westall Harry Westphalen Bruce Whelden Claude Williams Eddie Woerz Evelyn Kaelin Donald Knadle Betty Knowles Don McCracken Myron Nardon 0fe£ £ £ £A afife «gfe : Bill Abell Gordon Ackerma Ray Adams Vernon Adams Misao Akamichi A- 10 CLASS Dons Allen Dorothy Allman Sanford Alpert Marvin Amick George Anderson £ ft9fifc£££ — 97 — K ia£££iw£ O Cene Andreason Nicholas Annuchi Bill Ardary Charlotte Athay Martha Austin Edward Averkieff Max Aydelott Mortin Badestain Don Bailey Arthur Baizer Louis Baker Mi Selma Baker £ Dorothy Barks Ar | Deane Bowes , . - J. i_i a Ethel Bates ffkM £ .

What then would be the arts of peace? How could I mark the measured beat Of verse ' s rhythmic melody; Of measured dance; of blitheful play If both my ears were tortured By the discord of spasmodic battle ways? If Chaos calls the tune, what then of knowledge? The school house heaped in ruins with Ghostly halls for ghostly children Would be a monument to days before Aeonv was commonplace; death a modern instance. 6 PHILIP WALKER Bl 1 GETTING ON THE BUS Listen, my children, and I shall tell, Of the fight that goes on at the last school bell. As with gnashing of teeth and with pushing and fuss, The students all hurry to get on the bus. The combatants stand all arrayed in their armor But what good ' s a spear when you ' re losing an arm or A leg or a face or a quite handy ear? There ' s no other battle can cause so much fear. The bus trundles up as a matter of course But you want to shout My world for a horse! Getting in ' s like a ride on the beach loop-the- loops, You can ' t use your legs— you need parachute troops. But you ' re on, and you sigh, I knew I ' d lick it! Only to find that you ' ve lost your bus ticket. BARBARA DAVIS, A12 MEMORIES Of all the many years to come (As those already gone on by) Among the fondest thoughts will be Those happy days at Marshall High. To play by sportsmanship along To work, and find it not in vain To walk beside some cherished friend Are thoughts which oft return again. And so, although we, too, must leave A school where e ' er our hearts will be We SHALL return, if not ourselves At least in some sweet memory. DOROTHY COOLAHAN, REBEL Blackboards frame the portrait Of my day While outside, Spring pays Visits on her way To other lands where School boys just like me Push books aside And say, Five weeks, oh gee! MODERN LITERATURE, Period B12 CAFETERIA BLITZKRIEG A tense two minutes — then the bell; A second ' s split ere the swell Of rushing herds who just before Seemed so absorbed in dusty lore. Doors blow open, out they come; Alas for any guy so dumb As to linger in the way Of the dash to a cafeteria tray. MODERN LITERATURE. Period WILLIE ' S LAMENT (WITH BOO-HOO ACCOMPANIMENT) The Latin language .s very dead, But it ' s good for me, my teacher said. Doctors use it in their profession, Lawyers use it with discretion. (I don ' t like it.) Studying Latin is not for me, Julius Caesar can climb a tree. Cicero brings me just a frown. (I don ' t like it.) Verbs and nouns are mighty tough, Two years of this is quite enough. Why should I bother with bridges for Caesar, When all I want is a little leisure. (I still don ' t like it.) BOB SCOTT, A10 THE PERFECT WEEK-END ... or (THE USUAL PROCEDURE) Monday was lovely — not a cloud in the sky What a day for the beach, I said with a sigh! Tuesday was sunny — bright and fair Wednesday was nice — cool clear air. Thursday was ducky — perhaps a bit warm; Friday was perfect — no sign of a storm. Saturday morning — cloudy and gray, Damp and windy — terrible day. Sunday was cold — it rained until two Then the clouds blew away — and the sky became t Monday was lovely — not a cloud in the sky; What a day for the beach, I said with a sigh! BOB IRBY, A10 SCHOOL BELLS I left the fountain just seconds before. But the tardy bell rang while I opened the door. A sad expression on sweet teacher ' s face Said plainer than words that I ' d lost the race. Discouraged and blue I turned to go. My head cast down and my motion slow. To the attendance office where lay my fate — A disgraceful slip for my being late. I stopped, turned ' round, ran with all my might; I opened the door, still shaking with fright. I slid to my seat, the truth just occurred, ' Twas only the janitor ' s bell that I ' d heard. POLLY CRAUS, A12 APOLOGIES To me, it is a mystery Why teachers are so smart, Arithmetic and geography They know them all by heart. If I could be just half as bright. I ' d be so very happy. Instead, I try with all my might, And still I ' m just as sappy. NORMA HEWITT A10 !F DUTCH DANCE W40 SENIOR PROM SPRING DANCE HALLOWE ' EN AFTERNOON DANCE SENIOR SWEATER-DAY DANCE Marshall dances, which are gay and festive occasions, are eagerly anticipated events in our school calendar.

The Social Arts ' classes sponsorec the Dutch Dance, which was a real example, in both theme and meaning, of the word dutch.

The Girls ' League Christmas dance con- tributed with funds toward the home- room boxes for the needy of our community.

The Sweater Day dance found the powder blue anc cherry red Seniors proudly but blissfully sweltering in theii new raiment. The Spring dance with its decorations of palrr trees, sand dunes, and cacti was appropriately themed Spring on the Desert ; it was sponsored by the Student Council The S ' 40 Prom, Summer Nights, was a pleasant farewel to our departing Seniors. Ending the semester, the Alumn dance saw the old grads return to their alma mater, with reminiscences and dancing sharing equal honors.
