She has not only shown her niettle and superior quality rather than quantity in athletics, but she has also branched out in other school activities, thereby proving that she does not have to conhne herself to one particular phase of school life, but can break away from 'fsmall town stuff by achieving success in all school activities. Nevertheless in the summing up of Puente Hi's many and varied achievements, we shall confine ourselves first to her athletic records. First, we entered football for the first time and although we did not win the championship, we won over our worst rival in the league, Norwalk. Next, we made a splendid showing in basketball, proving ourselves to be a school of brawn as well as brain. Too, we must not for- get to mention the fact that Puente broke the record in the pole vault in track, and that two of her loyal students sprinted down the cinder path to gold medals. 'cPretty good, eh what'?,' After adding that Puente has fully vindicated herself for all Wrong doings in her splendid showing in girls, baseball by winning the cham- pionship of the league and our hrst cup, and by the faithfulness and good showing of our boys, baseball nine, we will leave athletics and go on to organizations. We now have ten organizations in Puente High School: Student Body, the Girlis League, Letter lVIen's Club, Boyis Glee, Cirlis Clee, Debating Club, Orchestra, Radio Club, Press Club, and the Hi Y. We are glad to say that our Student Body has had a most successful career for two reasons: First, we profited by the suggestions of last year's class of ,21 and made their theory our policy. Second, we have had an excel- lent Student Body President and have been in fullest co-operation with him all dur- ing the school year. Next, we may bring forth to an expectant world, the fact that of these ten organizations, four have been formed this year: the ul,etter Menis Clubfi the HPress Clubfi the uliadio Clubf' and the uljebating Clubfl All of these have proved themselves to be very successful and necessary organizations. We should like to enumerate still further how Puente has come to the front this year, in all classes of student activities, but space is growing limited, so we will leave with you this hope: that Puente Hi may be made even more successful next year by having a school paper run by the Student Body and financed from the Student Body dues, and by the prohts realized from the Friday night picture shows. The editing of a school paper will not only be educational to the students, but it will also be a great advertisement to the school itself as we would be able to ex- change with other schools. The financing should not be difficult as there will be little athletic expenses next year and also the school might be able to run ads in their paper as is done in the Imagaga. -W. A. 722.

Page Nine Much credit is due IVlr. lVIcIntosh, the Senior Class faculty Advisor, who has suic- cessfully guided us the past two years in our Puente High School career. We appreciate the good advisorship of Mr. IVIcIntosh and we wish to thank him from the depth of our hearts for the time and efforts he has spent on the class of '22 in the past two years. May it not be ill spent. The rest of our lives each one of us will remember him as one who helped us to gain a footing which would help us in our future lives after leaving dear old P. U. H. S. SENIOR EDITORIAL Listen and you shall hear the true and interesting story of the Garnet and White. Four short but joyful years have passed since that bright and smiling class of nine- teen and twenty-two first met in the halls of Puente High School as Freshmen. What a change has been wrought during those brief yearsl The same sun is overheadg the same puns are made and enjoyed. The Freshmen are as verdant as ever but all else, how changed! The faculty and students have changed but above all the class of nine- teen twenty-two has developed. Not that we do not have the same warm hearts and willing hands but that our hands and hearts have been trained and strengthened by the friendships, the lessons, the difficulties, the pleasures and disappointments that have come in that short period of time. Now that we are leaving Puente High we take this advantage of saying a word of appreciation to the entire faculty. What other band of teachers could do betterl lVIay the-world treat each of them as fairly as they have treated us. To lVIr. Blee upon whose leadership we have relied and whose ideals have played a large part in our High School work, we are much indebted. Also we are much indebted to lVlr. lVIcIntosh, our faculty advisor, who has at all times entered wholeheartedly into our activities and pleasures and who has helped us through our difficulties. It is largely due to his diligence and integrity that we have lived up to our motto, 44We Climb Though the Rocks Be Ruggedf, Our associations with the other members of the student body have been very pleasant for many are the gay times we have had together. We hope they may all have as wonderful a High School career as we have had. -D. 722.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Four long years ago, the Class of '22 started its well known career at Puente Union High School. Ah! we were freshies then, having all the characteristics of most Freshmen. We were timid, scared and mischievous, the last being a charac- teristic we have retained through all four years. In number we were 'twenty-five, being the largest class that had entered Puente High up to that time. During our Freshman year we chose our class colors, the garnet and white, and our motto, which is '6We Climb Though the Rocks Be Ruggedf, Miss Goodale was selected as our class teacher and Dorothy Jackley as our president for the year. The chief social function of the year was the one which all Freshies attend, none forget and all en- joy-the Freshman reception. During the year Leila Cole, Rosalie Ruiz, and Vernon White dropped out and Grace Cooper, Josephine Faure, Laura Moon, and Murray Link took their places, giving us a total of twenty-six at the end of the year. The loss of members during our Sophomore year seemed at first past repair, but others took their places and the class reached its height for the four years. Those leaving our happy crowd were, Blanche Bue, Donald Spurlock, Nellie Sewell, Wil- liam Hardwick, Edde Underwood, William Bowers and Ronald McClay, the last three being members of the class only part of the year. Those who joined us were Cecelia Olivares, Irene Young, Wallace Thompson, Earl Hall, Elvira Rowland, Charles Blackburn, and Alice Langdon. Our Junior year started well, under the guidance of Mr. McIntosh as our ad- visor and Dorothy ,Iackley as president. We had a Hallowe'en party at the home of Millie Watts and a hike to Mt. Wilson, which we will never forget. The Girlis Interclass Basketball team led in athletics by winning the silver loving cup. Eight of the girls represented us on the girl's baseball team, two boys in boysl baseball and one of our number was successful as a member of the track team. Millie Watts had the honor of being elected vice president of the Student Body. By the end of the year our number had dropped to twenty-four. Laura Moon, Irene Young, Wallace Thompson, Winifred Wimmer, Earl Hall, Neva Turner, Marie Wildon, Ben Maxson, and Eugene Ireland left. Francis McDonald, Edwin Zeiler, Blythe Taylor and Alberta Shepek entered. Cyrelle Evans was also a member of our class for a part of the year. The last and the crowning year of both our work and our play was our Senior year. Once more our number rose to twenty-nine. Nine new members, namely, Paul Blackburn, Rosie Miller and Harry Miller, Anna Zuniga, Gladys Smythe, George St. Clair, William Andrews, and Ross McMillan entered, but two others, Francis McDonald, and Norman McCoy dropped out. Cecelia Olivares was chosen for our president for the first semester and Charles Blackburn for the second. Mr. McIntosh remained our class advisor and our inspiration for the entire year. Once again the girls won the championship in girls' interclass basketball. Portia Parriott, Cecelia Olivares, Carol Boyer, and Elvira Rowland represented us in girls, baseball and Paul Blackburn, Harry Miller, Charles Eaure and Charles Blackburn in track, each receiving a medal in the Valley League Track Meet. Charles Faure also repre- sented us in boys' basketball and baseball. The social functions of the year, which are well worth mentioning were a wienie bake at Fish Canyon, a trip to Mt. Wilson, a theatre party to see the 4'Mission Playf' a hot tamale roast at Cecelia Olivaresl and a party in honor of the faculty. Arbor Dav was observed for the first time in Puente High School, by the Class of '22. After a short program, a tree was planted in a corner of the front lawn. The Senior play, 4'Strongheart, and the class day program as well, were both a success in every Way'And so closed our high school career and one of the never to be forgotten ex- periences of a life time.

Although the majority of the members are boys, the class has had several very suc- cessful social gatherings. The students who were Juniors this year have a glorious future ahead of them, as Seniors next year. For they have attained class spirit and real co-operation in the last three years and have succeeded in making a place for themselves in the school The class is well represented in both athltic and social enterprises. Stanley Maxson, record breaker of P. U. H. S. is a loyal Junior and the class IS very proud of him and of the other Junior members who have taken an active part in athletics and other school activities. This year's basketball team was composed mostly of Junior boys. Also the Junior boys took a part in football and track. The two good pitchers, catcher and several fielders and basemen on the boys' baseball team are men of 1923. The girls represent the class in many organizations, Girls, League, Student Body officers, Debating Club, Orchestra and Annual Staff. The social life of the Junior class started out very well with a Weiner roast and theatre party at Pomona. A party held at HLa Maison Joyellew closely followed this and then a barn party for Juniors and Freshmen was given at the Maxson home, The Juniors raised a good sum of money this year by having stands at the games.

U. H. S. We have onl been here two short vears, but we are coming to the front. Y , as We tried, as Freshmen last year to do the small tasks that are usually put upon Freshies, such the cleaning of the letter MPN on the hill east of Puente. We also tried to perform the strenuous task of being made Freshmen. We modeled after the Juniors and Seniors. It was hard, but we have lived through it, nevertheless. Social- ly we have been very successful. ,We had several social functions but the one to be remembered is the uFreshie Receptionf' given to us by the Seniors, Juniors and Sophomores, who with great ceremonies, welcomed the timid Frshmen into the Student Body of P. U. H. S. This year we have had several social events such as a party at the home of Dorothy Evans at which everyone enjoyed themselves. Also we had a picnic at Brookside Park. The prize page in the annual was won bv the class of 7211, this year. lt was a hard fight, but we finally were the victors.J The class pi 720 won this page as Sopho- mores in '18. The class o 22 won it as t1I'110I'S in 72. . We keep up with the other classes from the athletic point of view also. ln our football team were, Johnny Shepek, Keith Chaffee and Ferdinank Cota from the class of 124. ln the boys, basketball team were Keith Chafifee, and baseball, Johnny Shepek Keith Chaffee and Ferdinand Cota. We wish to thank Miss Wolcott for her help to us during the two years she has been our advisor. Page Twenty-fire ll xx! wYeggg,5,pf1.W44y.1 , H, ,wuz-ff if lr ., wa, , Wi?

The upper class- men laughed at us and remarked about our greenness, although we couldn't imagine why, for to ourselves We didnlt look so funny. We got our books and then the study- ing began. Such studying, tool The lessons were longer than we had ever imagined could be learned in twenty-four hours. Between learning our lessons and trying not to do anything to make the Sophomores laugh at us? we had no time in which to be lonely. Soon after school started we were invited to a reception by the upper classmen. We were initiated and sent home feeling better acquainted with each other. Several of the boys in our class were on the football team, and the Freshman girls helped a great deal to put over a winning team in girls' baseball. Before we are Seniors, Puente will be proud of the class of 725. We have enjoyed our first year as high school students and are looking forward to the next three years which we hope to make the best and most successful of our school life. Page TlL'8I1fj St'L'Efl if ! THE CHAPLIN'S DAUGHTER 'fGirls, donit you really think we ought to ask Genevieve Henderson to belong to our Sewing Girclefw ventured Margery Wakeheld timidly to the seven girls that sat in .Iudge Kendallls cozy front room, waiting for their president, Nellie Ferguson to arrive. HI saw her walking down the street the other day and she looked so lonely. L'Well, I should say notf, gasped Louise Kendall in horror. uWhy?'7 asked Margery innocently. 4'Why? Her father was in the State prison at Michigan City for over a year. Thatls enough to disgrace any girl. How do you know?'7 Hashed Beth. 'II like Genevieve and I donit believe any such thing about her father or any of the rest of her folksfi uWhy-why,', stammered Louise. uSome of the men down at the store were talking about it. One of them said, 'Last year when Mr. Henderson was at the prison, heia and then they saw me and quit talking. So there, Beth Turnerfi 'fOh, girls! what do you think? interrupted Nellie as she burst into the room, too excited to remember to leave her hat in the hall. Last night, daddy called me into his study and told me I could take anyone of the girls of North Bremington I wanted most along, to Niagara Falls this summer. Immediately every face lit up as if a sudden beam of sunshine had burst into the room. Then just as suddenly they clouded over as each girl thought that she might not be chosen. HThe longer I thought the harder it was for me to choose, so now the one who you girls decide has done the most for the society between now and then shall be the one to go. This is the last day of May and the decision must be made by June 20 as we start the 30th and whoever goes will want a little time to get ready. Once more the girls' faces lit up as they began to plan what they would do to win the reward. 4'Of course Genevieve Henderson won't be counted in this, continued Nellie in a lower tone and a little haughtily. 'fWhy of course not. echoed all in disdain, but Beth and Margery said nothing. '6Who would want an ex-convict's daughter for a companion? scoffed Helen, Louiseis sister. Two weeks passed by and all the girls were working hard for the reward. Some were working out new crochet and tatting designs, some were securing new books to be read while they sewed and others were making garments for poor children to be given away in the name of the Sewing Circle. But the day before the decision was to be given Genevieve was walking along the river which flowed about an eighth of a mile below their house, wondering sadly for the sixtieth time since she came to North Bremington, why the rest of the girls treated her so coldly. Then suddenly a great splash sounded just behind her and she ran to the bank to see what had happened. On the other side of the river a little blue ribbon showed just above the water. Acting quickly, she slipped off her shoes and middy skirt and jumped into the water, thinking only as she swam swiftly across of rescuing the owner of the blue ribbon. At last she reached the struggling figure of a girl a little smaller than herself. Almost strangling herself, she fastened the arms of the half-drowned girl around her neck and swam back to the shore. After giving Hrst aid treatment, restoring her to consciousness, she half-carried and half- led her to her house. A few minutes later Genevieve set down a tray, containing a cup of steaming hot tea and a sandwich before Nellie who was wrapped in a blanket before the fire- place. Nellie said half-timidly, half-ashamed, 4'Genevieve, I'm sorry I let the girls Page Thirty think your father was an ex-convict when I knew he was a chaplin in the state prison at Michigan City instead of an inmate, and I think when I tell the girls about today they'll decide you are the one who must go to Niagara Fallsf' Genevieve was so happy all she could do was to kiss Nellie gently on the fore- head and drop beside her chair from pure joy. When Nellie told the sewing club, they agreed that it was Genevieve who had done the most for the society by saving the life of their president. -G. C. '22. HIS LAST CARTRIDGE In the moonlight the monarch of the jungle stands outlined against the dark background of the swampy thicket. His head is erect and one foot thrown forward, as he sniffs the air cautiously, his tail all the while imitating the movement of the cobra as he makes to strike. Back in the underbrush not many yards from the terrible beast, a man waits. His muscles have grown tense. His eye which is riveted upon his pursuer, has taken on a deadly glitter, now and then he nervously fingers the trigger of a long rifle, which is held in a vise like grip. The night takes on a deathly stillness, the hunter scarce dares to breathe, the intensity of the moment seems to be overpowering him, for he is breathlessly wait- ing the terrible onslaught which he knows he must soon face. Then all at once the air is rent with a deep roar and before the echoes have scarcely died away, the lion, having caught the scent of his victim, begins searching all about, with his penetrating eyes, for his prey upon which he is eager to pounce. The monster lowers his tail, arches his back, thrusts his head forward close to the ground, his powerful sinews creep and crawl as he gathers them together for that awful spring. The experienced eye of the hunter knows what these movements indicate, so with quick and deliberate aim he lires just as the beast springs. The bullet finds its mark, for following the report of the gun, the animal which is in midair, writhes and twists, and losing his balance falls a trifle short of the hunterg but the beast is not to be entirely defeated in his purpose, for as he falls he thrusts forward a pon- perous paw and strikes the man a tremendous blow, which hurls him to earth with dreadful force. The lion not being mortally wounded is now in a blind rage, he tears the earth about him, and keeps the forest resounding with his terrifying roars. The man en- deavors to rise upon his feet, but he finds he has broken his ankle, stricken with this new terror he rises to his knees and seizing his long dirk, awaits the charge of the hideous monster with the desperation born of despair. The lion now seeing his great advantage prepares to spring for the second time. The moon is suddenly hidden by a passing cloud, the hunter breathlessly awaits the attack for he thinks the beast will spring upon him during this period of darkness but for some unknown reason the lion waits for the light of the moon, as the cloud passes the animal crouchesg then with a swift switch of his tail and a lierce snarl he springs, immediately a tongue of fire fiashes out of the darkness followed by the sharp crack of a Winchester, the huge beast doubles in the air, falls to earth with a great thudg with teeth showing and foam running from his mouth, he makes a last fierce struggle to rise. He rises nearly half way upon his haunches, a shudder passes through his great frame, and he pitches forward to the ground, a lifelss heap. Having been so opportunely rescued from his perilous position the hunter re- laxes into semi-consciousness, from which he partially arouses on hearing these Page Thirty-one W0ffl5, ulust in time, Dick, eh, old scout, and with a wan smile looks up iI1tO the face of his old pal, the guide, and weakly grasping his hand, answers, Yes, TOITI, you were just in the nick of time, for I had used my last cartridge. -N. lVIc. 23. A MILD ADVENTURE cklerrv, we're lost In ULOSH .IHCIC you donit mean it. Why, land can't be far away, for we Were in plain sight of it before this old fog hit usfl Wfhat may be, Ierry, but in what direction is the question. Keep that fog horn going, Ierry, so we won't hit anyone and I'll lash this helm. Acting as he spoke, lack soon held the wheel secure, and then strode forward to where Jerry was vigor- ously manipulating a large fog horn at minute intervals. It did seem as though the two young boatmen were lost as the fog closed down on them denser and denser, till they could hardly see their hands before their faces. Jerry Wilson, and ,lack Welch, two life-long friends and college chums, had only recently graduated from the Chicago University, where they had gained ever- lasting fame as the two best ends the Chicago eleven had ever produced, besides be- ing both students of very high degree in their studies. But now, they were no longer in school, and as their fathers, joint owners of a famous great lakes shipping company, had both agreed that they should have a year's vacation before entering into the business world, they were consequently their own masters for a year. Immediately, they invested their allowances up to date, in a small steam launch, the Uliightningf' in which they began a systematic Search for adventure on the great lakes, which are certainly, amply capable of producing enough thrills for the most critical of young fortune hunters, as they were doomed to dis- cover, too late. 'cWell, ,lerry,,' said Jack as he reached his companion's side on the Lightning's deck, HI guess we're in for a real adventure this time. Oh no,7' Jerry replied as he prepared for another blast on the fog horn, uthis will turn out to be another mild one. Nevertheless, he made haste to get to the wheel, where he could try lo determine their direction by peering ahead into the en- veloping, cloaklike denseness of the white fog. Suddenly he shouted, gflack, come here quick, there's something bearing down on us through the fogf, 'Starboard your helm quick! cried ,lack as he hurried forward to where Jerry was trying to change the course of their boat, but it was too late. Out of the fog there came a weird fantom shape, slowly but inexorably bearing down upon them. It was too late to avert the danger. They were doomed to be crushed in by this magnified monster of the sea. fejump for your life, Jerry, it's the LGhost Shipf cried Jack as he grabbed two lifesavers from a rack and tossing one to his companion prepared to buckle on his. 'Tm with youfi replied Jerry, buckling on his belt, and then simultaneously two bodies struck the water in a clean dive, while at the same time with a reverberating shock the 4'Ghost Ship crashed into the ulsightningn as if it were nothing more than a cockle shell to be accompanied by what seemed to be a woman's scream, heard from the deck of the old direlect. After what seemed to be an eternity the two young men came to the surface, gasping for their breath. The shock of contact had thrown them out away from their boat which was fortunate, as the 4'Lightning was now sinking very rapidly. The '4Ghost Shipf, which had been unharmed, due to the fact that it was heavily laden with timber, came creaking on, and Jack, who was nearer to it, saw a rope hanging over its side. Calling to ,Ierry to follow, he struck out Wlth lusty Page T hirty-two strokes for the desired rope. Finally, fairly exhausted, he reached the rope, to be joined by the equally exhausted Jerry a moment later. After a moment's rest, lack started up with Jerry behind. Half-way up the rope he looked up toward the deck and saw, peering over the rail the white faces of two beautiful young women and an old man who were regarding him with a strange fascination. So filled with sur- prise was he that he let go of the rope and came down on the head of poor Jerry below him. It took heroic efforts on their parts to regain the rope as a wind had come up blowing away the fog but announcing the approach of a gale. Willing hands pulled them on up to the deck where they fell, too exhausted to stand or even speak, but showing in their faces, the surprise that they felt. The old man came to their rescue, by introducing himself as Mr. Richard North of Chicago, and the two young girls at his side as his daughters, Julia and Alice. Then in a broken voice he told how two days before, they had been a part of a gay yachting party which had only recently come from Hawaii. It was then that they hit the ship upon which they now were. The shock had sent their boat to the bottom immediately, and of those who had jumped, and put off in lifeboats, also, they only were left. And only by chance had they been saved. The boys then introduced themselves, and told how they came to hit the direlect also. 4gWe saw you coming when you were upon us, but had no way of warning you, said lVIr. North as they all started toward the MGhost Ships' cabin. G'And, oh, I am so glad that you were not hurt,', added Alice, as she walked along by the side of Jack. uOh that would not'have been a misfortune at all,'a he replied, 'cfor just look what lovely nurses we would have hadf, '4The cabin is well stocked with clothes and foodf, said Mr. North as he held open the cabin door for the rest to pass in, Hand the whole ship has an appearance of having been deserted on a moment's notice, and if you will follow me I will show you where a fire which has gone out, raged in the hold of the ship, so I have come to the conclusion that the reason why the ship was deserted, was that a fire had broken out in the hold amongst inflammable goods, and having no way to put it out 'those on board took to their life-boats, leaving the ship afloat, and later the fire burned out itself. 'cThat is probably the explanation of it,77 said Jerry, Mand say, I have an idea. Why can't we fix up the hole, rig up a sail, and sail her into some port for salvage?'7 A splendid idea, said lack, Hletis see what we can find. The fog had by this time lifted sufficiently for them to see, and also the wind had died down, so now was the time to act. All the rest of the evening, the boys, with the help of lVlr. North worked at clear- ing away the wreckage, rigging up a sail, and fixing a broken rudder, and by the time dark had come making it impossible to work longer they had the old direlect prac- tically in shape for navigation once more. It was with a great deal of laughter and hard work that the two girls prepared the dinner out of hard tack and canned goods found in the cabin. Then before going to bed they all sat around a big stove and told stories and interesting parts of their lives and experiences that they had had. The next morning they were up bright and early, and ,lack upon consulting a chart found that they were only ten leagues off shore, and a good port where they could salvage their old ship. lVlany and varied were the experiences that they had that day, navigating the water logged old direlect which was loaded with pine and worth many thousands of dollars. Also a firm friendship was formed between the boys and the two girls, which promised to become even stronger when they should regain land and take up their old stations in life. Late in illC.CV6I1lilg land was sighted by ,lack from away up in the crow's nest and great was the rejoicing when Page Thirty-three it was affirmed a little later by the rest. Nevertheless, they were forced to spend another night on board which none regretted, and then in the morning they entered port in triumph. In due time they received their salvage on the ship which proved to be of no little value, and it came time for them to part for the time being. But as Jack as- sured Alice, as they stood on the station platform, it was only for the time beingg and in spite of the fact that he and Jerry were soon to become business men they would certainly find time to come to see them often if they were willing. And you may be sure they were, as it was proven by the way in which they bid the two young men goodbye. '4And you actually had the nerve to say that this would only be another mild adventuref, said Jack to Jerry reprovingly, as they watched the train curve out of sight around a bend, their last glance of it being the sight of two white figures on the rear car frantically waving their handkerchiefs. -W.

Page Thirty-four STEVE lt's sure a great life, isn't it Steve? '5You can bet your sweet life on that. No cares, no worries or nuthin, else, like all these highflutin tellers that sail around here in their big lizziesli' came from Lazy Steven as he was called by all his tramp friends, while looking down the rail- road track. He was a rather young man, being a tall lanky looking, lazy fellow. He had a sandy complexion and large dark eyes. His cap was placed on the top of a mass of black uncombed hair in a very happy go lucky fashion. Every bit of his appearance suited his name even to the careless manner in which his pack was thrown over his shoulder. ' '4Shorty Goodwin? the first speaker was a short chunky fellow. Probably he was about forty-five years of age. ' Steve gave him a look of disgust saying, 'cYou look as if you'd be great some- time. Oh, yes, you do not? Your ma was wrong the time she said that. But they usually are! MI should worry! Say do you know weill soon be in Los? Shorty replied, as he looked towards the setting sun. MDO we stay there all night? 'GI guess we had better sleep someplace near there, don't you? Then we can get an early start in the morningli' was the reply. HAn early start? Where to? East, West, North or South? lt makes no diff to mel? '4Let's make it East for a ehangeli' came from Steve. Some distance behind them the whistle of the five-thirty train blew. lt was coming from San Diego. At the same time they noticed a group of young girls crossing the track about thirty feet ahead of them. As they stepped off the track to allow the train lo pass, which was now quite near, '4Shorty yelled, cc The girl! Look! Her foot's caught in the cattle guardlw He was off like an arrow. The other girls, too frightened to help their friend, were runnig away in terror. The train was quite close now. Steve saw his old pal leap towards the girl, grasp the strap of her shoe, then with great force throw her from the track. The train was passing now and the girl was lying beside the track. The next morning these headlines appeared in the Times, '4Tramp gives his life for Blossom Manners. Poor old Steve was heart broken. He paced the streets of Los Angeles during the entire night. He seemed to be in a hazy mysterious dram. lt was the first time for two years that he was not accompanied by his dear old pal uShorty.'7 The next day the best of services were held in the largest funeral parlors in the city, due to the preparations of Mr. Manners, Blossom's father and general manager of the railway company. - Steve was there in his old ragged clothes unnoticed by every one. When the sermon was over Blossomis friends passed silently by the coffin covered and sur- rounded by the most beautiful of Horal offerings. They all gazed upon that quiet face and all seemed to read that word Ngreatl' written upon his forehead. Slowly Steve approached the coffin. He was the last person to look down upon that dear face. '4Shorty old pal, you did that great deed, didnit you? Our mothers are right after all, aren't they old fellow? Yes, they are. lim going to find mine and make her happy. Shorty lim going to miss you but you have taught me my lessonfi Here the poor fellow broke down and wept like a small child. The scene was Page Thirty-Hzrc pitiful. There stood uSteve but no longer the Lazy Stevefl His heart WHS broken and his best friend was gone. Then a beautiful soft white hand was tenderly placed on his shoulder. HTherS don't cry, please don't. He's resting. He's in peace now. Come friend, come! This sweet voice seemed to take away the horror of death from Steve7s heart. He came. Six months later saw the new 'Steven employed in the offices of the Hailway Company under Mr. Manners and living in a lovely little cottage with his aged mother. -M. W. 322. THE LOST EYE MNOW what the heck will I do? Oh! what a lifelw Such were the plaintive words of eleven-year-old Johnny Taylor. He had been playing war and had his battleships cruising over a water trough. To make it more realistic he looked about for some mines. He could not Hnd anything to resemble a mine until he thought of his auntis glass eye which she removed when there was no one else present for it be- ing slightly too small might drop out. He had tip-toed into his auntls room and found it. It had made a wonderful mine until his aunt happened to pass close by. He had so hurriedly removed some of his playthings that he was later unable to Find his anntis artihcial lamp. Ohl gee, whatill l do? I'll admit it and-f. No, I ainlt gonna do that. Oh! what can I do?'7 He had suddenly remembered a strap that his aunt kept for special IICHSOIIS. Hlohnny, Johnny come here quick, his aunt was calling him. johnny walked slowly toward the house from which the voice came. His head was drooped for he could almost feel the strap already. Hjohnny, hurry up. Oh! my goodness live lost my eye. Ohl look for it, Johnny, for Mrs. Gossipe will be here in a few minutesf' she was turning things topsy-turvy. She even looked into the stove. Which eye, Aunty? Johnny asked with a gulp that almost swallowed his tongue. 44Ohl there comes Mrs. Gossipe now. Run down and tell her I'm not home, go on, hurry. '6Hello, Johnnyf' greeted Mrs. Gossipe. uHello,7' returned Johnny. Aunty isn't home and won't be back for half an hour and-I' Ohl I don't mind waiting. You must come sit down beside me and tell me about yourself. she answered as she became seated. Johnny's face had brightened a little by now for it was possible he might get some information from Mrs. Gossipe to help his aunt. He had been watching the visitor's eyes which was noticed by their rightful owner. His aunt had always taken pains that no one should know of her pet eyeball. So you're home all alone? You must be a brave boy. Gracious! what was that noise? There must be a burglar in the house. Quick, Johnny, we must run and call the police, exclaimed Mrs. Gossipe, starting to make a rapid exit from the house. Johnny was pulling at her arm and trying to explain that it was only his dog removing a fur inhabitant. HOhl I get frightened so easyf, laughed Mrs. Cossipe as she took her chair again. 'alt must be about time for your aunty to return. You must like my eyes. I admire your franknessfl 6'Mrs. Gossipe, if you had a glass eye and lost it whatid you do? I mean Page Thirty-six lll'l ,,, he had caught his auntyis other eye looking at him and her frightened face trying to tell him to keep quiet about it. Hvlfhy, thatls very amusingf' laughed Mrs. Gossipe. '4That reminds me of a story that I read once of a woman who had a glass eye and lost it. It amused me so much that I gave the story to my neighbors to read. I think I still have it at home. Itls so funny. I'll bring it over next time I come and let you and your aunty read it. The aunt was listening to all this conversation. She became blind with rage which probably was only half so difficult with only one eye. '4Well, I guess I'd better go home. I'1l come back after a while. Goodbye, Johnny, be a good boy, she advised as she left. As soon as she was out of sight Iohnnyas troubles began again. MYou little rascal. I've a notion to tan your hide. W'hat'd you mention this terrible condition for? After all I've loved you and now youlve ruined my life if Mrs. Cossipe suspects anythingf' She slapped his face, in the peculiar fashion as such lovinff aunts do, as they started on their search for the hidden treasure aUain. This search continued until toward evening when Johnny sneaked away to a ptlace of his own choice. After half an hour he found the eye hidden in a tobacco box. He knew that if he did things just right he would get a reward. He then went back into the house. His aunt had begun to cry a little. He felt sorry for her but he wanted some ice cream and candy so he could not afford to ffive in then. '4Aunty, I donlt know where it is, but I believeol could look harder if there was a reward, lied little Johnny. I'll give you a quarter if you find it, answered his aunty hopefully. Make it a half, he responded. 4LAll rightfl came the answer. But you know the bigger the reward the harder I can look, better make it a dollarf' he knew the value of his labor. NGO on, Illl give you a dollarf' sobbed the aunt. Johnny departed into another room and pretty soon exclaimed, Oh! Aunty, I've found it. Come quick. She didn't need the last command, she was by his side. She was so eager to get possession of it that she snatched it from his hand. HOhl you little dear, what would life be without you, she exclaimed as she kissed her own eye. Johnny received his dollar and departed for the corner drug store. He came out half an hour later whistling, with a full stomach and an empty pocket. K G '23 ENGLISH ' ' I When you go home at night, And think of the poem you have to write.

As the other man was carried off the Held he jumped into his position, his body quivering with excitement. The next instant they were cheering for the wounded man whose place he was taking. A First a jump, then a grab-fwith the ball in his arms he ran just as fast as he could go. Although he only went ten yards he had shown the crowd on the bleachers what he could do. Two weeks later while Jimmy was out practicing, the coach came up to him and was showing him some of the new plavs. HI don't like that overhead pass, lVlr. Stan- ton,'7 said Jimmy. HI believe it would be best if we stick to the old way of playingf, HWell,'7 replied the coach, Mthe team has decided to learn this new play and it's up to you to play it and play it the best you can. With this the coach left him. Jimmy felt insulted. After he had made the team, then to have to learn a lot of ujunkw as he called it, was too much. In the practice game that afternoon he resolved to play the way he wanted to. Besides he didn't have time to hang around the athletic field all morning, learning to play football a different way altogether. He now wasn't seen again until bve minutes before the game that afternoon, and when he finally arrived the coach gave him an un-to-date bawling out. This more than hurt Jimmyis pride. Hel A star player on the football team!- being bawled out for almost being late. HWell,,' thought he, the chainpionship game between ,lamesville and uHandy,, is only ten days off, Iill do just like I please -but his thoughts were interrupted by the captain of the team. Jimmy, we're going to put Smith in your place. He knows the new plays better and we will use you as a Subf' Jimmy sauntered off the field very angry and somewhat downhearted, for he didnit want Ruth to know that he had absolutely been kicked off the team. Ten days rolled around and the big game was nearly half over. Jimmy was sitting on the bench, and not on the field where he should have been if he had been out to practice. The score was 14-7 in favor of the Jamesville school. The rooters who, twenty minutes ago had been excited and full of fun, were now down-hearted and very much afraid of a defeat. The whistle blew and the men sauntered off the field more than down-hearted. As they were walking in to training quarters, the captain said to Jimmy: We are going to put you in if Smith does not do better in the next ten minutes, Jimmy. This was good news to Jimmy, although he didnit show it for deep down in his heart he wanted to show the bunch that he was no coward. So he said nothing. A few minutes before the team returned to the field, the coach came up to Jimmy and said, '4Look here Jimmy, we know you can do better than Smith, and if you weren't so darn stubborn you could win this game. Youire going in in his place right now and this is your last chance to show us what you can dofi MAH right, Coach, l'll try to do my best, but I'm 11ot very good at the new plays you know. Nevertheless Jimmy was in his old place when the ball was kicked off. It was a good kick and landed in the arms of the man behind him. He ran about four yards without being stopped but when he lookedup, the ball was in the arms of his op- ponent. f'Hit that linel Hit that linel Hit that line hard! came in unison from the bleachers. Jimmy gritted his teeth and pitched forward. He tackled the man with the ball, grabbed the ball and ran. Page Thirty-eight Fifteen minutes later and ,limmy's side still had the ball. Although things looked blue, Jimmy knew that he had just as much chance as any one else. While thus pondering, the ball landed directly in his arms. He didnlt even have time to think about what would be the best thing to doAhe just ran. '4Over headf, yelled the nearest fellow. uWell,w thought Jimmy, Know or never, and he aimed the ball for Thorne who was about ten feet ahead of him. The next second he was tackled and went down. H68-42-34-20-Shift, 16-I4-12 Jimmy's number! He jumped into position just in time to grab the ball once more. They were now just about twenty yards from the goal. The men ahead of him went down one by onegnow one was coming for him? first he ducked then he jumped right over him-the people in the bleachers went wild-'cRun, run, run, they cried. Now two more were coming for him. The first he dodged and the second-he almost dropped the ball in his excitement. ,lust then a shriek from his opponent told him that he had a clear Held as the last man had fallen. He was going to make it- he was-he was-and he did, even if it was by a very few inches. -W. P. '22.

STUDENT BODY At the Southeast end of the San Gabriel Valley once stood a little lndian vil- lage called Awigna. ln this village the Indians gathered around the camp fires to talk over events of importance to the tribe. Simetimes the older men of the tribe would gather around the Chief and discuss events of minor importance. Later their conclusions were presented to the tribe. Hundreds of years later on the spot of these tribe meetings was built one of the most beautiful small High Schools in the State of California. Much liberty was given the pupils. ln fact they had almost as much power as the old tribe of Indians. Instead of being called a tribe, however, the students of the school called themselves a 'cStudent Bodyf' This Student Body has a uchiefw and his helpers. The chief was called a uPresident77 in the new school. His helpers were the Vice-President, Secre- tary, Treasurer and Athletic Manager. Soon the year of 1922 came along. Puente High School was growing rapidly, as were all other schools of the great nation of the United States. ln this year the Student Body was nearly fifty per cent larger than it was the year before. ln this great enlargement new ideas were brought into the school. Some said that bad ideas came to the school, too, for some seemed to lack that indefinable quality uschool spirit, that usomethingn that makes a school win every game. Yet taken all in all the school seemed to get ahead rapidly. Baseball had been played for some years butgthe suits were in bad condition. Every game had to have an umpire or a referee-and to have these cost money. An Annual Book put out by the Student Body called for more money. Football was instituted into the sports of Puente and the surrounding schools for the First time in the history of these small schools. This game called for suits to protect the players. Where were these hundreds of dollars to come from? The Student Body-was the source. But how? The answer was, HFrom the Moving Picture Show run weekly by the Student Bodyfl The Show was run weekly by the pupils. It was organized like a business pro- ject. An advertising manager was appointed to get people to come to the shows. Cashiers, Ticket-takers, Operators, Electricians, Musicians, etc., were also appointed. Yet these people worked so well and quietly that the patrons hardly thought of the preparation and work that was required to put the picture show over. But the shows were well patronized by the loyal patrons of the '4La Puente Valleyfi Of course, the equipment consisted of the Mbeaded screenl' the latest in the 'fmovie worldf, and the projection machines of the latest type employing high power mazda lamps instead of the antiquated carbon filanerts. Then the pictures themselves were of fine types. Most of the pictures ran at the High School before they reached sur- rounding towns. Altogether the shows were successful, netting good sums to the Student Body. During the year which was a Hne one for the school, several organizations were developed under the Student Body. Some of these were a Debating Club, a Letter- men's Club, and a Press Club which put out a weekly paper the HTomahawk.'7 Old organizations flourished making it one of the most successful years for these or- ganizations. Yet when the year ended the officers of the Student Body looked over the things accomplished and the things unaccomplished and they were astonished. For they found while great deeds had been accomplished much was left undone. But al- though they regretted this undone work they knew they had accomplished what they could. They trusted that the future might broaden the work and name of our school under the leadership of the coming Seniors. Page FUITQY-.St'l'67Z ' LEAGUE OFFICERS LS CIR GIRL'S LEAGUE As every organization of great importance must have some one real aim or foundation to Work upon, the Girlas League of Puente Union High School chose for its purpose the creating of the spirit of true friendship and democracy among the girls in the school. Wlith this aim ever in mind, this organization completes the most successful year in the history of the school. All the girls and the lady teachers in the school are enrolled as members of the League. Besides the officers, which are the President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer, elected from the Senior, Junior, Sophomore and Freshman classes re- spectively, there are two committees elected each semester namely, the Social and the Benevolent Committees which carry on the social functions and the charity work throughout the semester. The President's cabinet consists of the officers of the League and the Faculty Advisor. Their duty is to handle the financial needs and to settle disputes that fre- quently arise. At the first of the year the girls made pons-pons and sold them, which netted quite a sum. By the many sales of refreshments at the League games the treasury has been kept filled. In the latter part of November we had the a'Annual Basketball Rallyw which proved to be a Wonderful success. ln the afternoon each class put on a short stunt which was enjoyed by all. A banquet was given in the evening where very interest- ing toasts were given by the following members: Grace Cooper, Alice Maxson, Cecilia Olivares, Alberta Shepek and Christine Wachs. Another interesting affair was the Mothers' Tea. A short musical program was given and refreshments of tea and wafers served. On November the twenty-third the Benevolent Committee took many jars of fruits and jellies to the David and Margaret Home at La Verne. During Christmas Week they sent a basket of Hgoodiesw to a needy family and they sent also jars of fruit and jellies to the Childrenis Hospital in Los Angeles. The biggest affair of the year was the Girls, League Vaudeville, the first of its kind ever given at Puente. At this vaudeville the play, Pais New Housekeeperf, a one act farce was well acted by the following students: William Andrews, Wordna Pyle, Marjorie Newton, Ralph Deaver, Robert Tindall. This play was skillfully directed by Mrs. R. H. Blee. Now that we end with a most successful year, having had many social functions and having performed benevolent duties we owe much credit to our officers.

Page FOTfj'-llfllh GIRL'S GLEE CLUB Under the capable direction of Miss Hicks, the Cirlls Glee Club has proven to be one of the most important organizations in school. It has tended 'as.never before in the preceding years to encourage an appreciation of good music in the school and community. , Through the Clee Club, chorus and solo work has been furnished for the Fri- day night shows throughout the year. ln this way, the members are given an op- portunity to develop their talents along musical lines. K The Glee Club is divided into two sections. The Seniors and Juniors are in the first section and meet every Monday. The Sophomores and Freshmen are in the second section and meet every Tuesday. ' The first and second quarters were devoted to the learning of the valuation of good music and the learning of popular songs for our own as well as others enjoy- ment. During the third quarter work was begun on the operetta, Liwind Mills of Hollandfl a delightful and wholesome story of old Holland. It was given May the seventh in the school auditorium and was well appreciated by the people of the com- munity and a considerable sum was netted. Some of the songs sung at the Friday night shows were: 'cLittle Papoosef' Liwater Liliesf' HRecessional,', 'gSlumber Beatfi '4Dream Gypsiesfi 'LSunset,,' and HShadows Over the Seaf, LETTER MENS CLUB The Letter Menis Club of Puente Union High School is strictly a menls organiza- tion which was started by Coach Mclntosh. It not a social organization and does not pretend to be. It is just what its name implies, a Letter Menis Club. Only men who have won their letters may become members of this organiza- tion. When they win a letter they automatically become a member. The Club is an athletic organization and athletic matters are discussed by its members. This organization has a strong influence among the lower classmen, for it acts as an incentive to them, a thing to be attained. And it can only be attained through hard work. Sad to say, it has been ridiculed by members of the school who say that it has no social functions. The members of the club realize that it is the very backbone or spirit of a school. A school is judged to a certain extent by its athletic abilities. One of the best things the Letter Men's Club does is to encourage men on different teams to keep up their studies, and this year no player had to be kept off a team for being down in his studies. There is no doubt at all but that it has proven a great success in even so short a time. There are several new men wearing the school letter who have not had the honor of wearing it up to now.

Under the capable direction of Miss E. Hicks, we have been able to furnish many of the delightful and interesting skits for our Friday night picture shows. Some of the stunts given by the boy's glee are: an Indian impersonation entitled 'cBig Chief Not Afraid of His Lessons, a hunting song from 64Gypsy Roverfi a cowboy stunt in which the cowboy song 4'Cheyene,'7 and others were used and MSO Long Maryf, Also four of our members took part in the delightful operetta, 'cWind Mills of Holland, which was given during the third quarter by the Girls' Cvlee Club. Those taking part were William Andrews, Paul Blackburn, Ralph Deaver, and Edwin Zeiler. Some of the songs which we have enjoyed singing this year are: The Gypsy Trail, a'Kentucky Babef, Hljixie Band, MA Ford Song and '4Lassie O' Minefa The members of the Boys, Glee Club are: William Andrews, Edwin Zeiler, Robert Tindall, Cecil Knowlton, Paul Blackburn, Nele Davis, Lyndsey Hoag, Ross Turner, Bryce Shurr, Earl Clevenger, Ernest Espitallier, Albert Rath, and Francis Fox. DEBATING CLUB The Debating Club was organized shortly after school began with fourteen charter members enrolled. Miss Irvin, our principal, was instrumental in forming this club as she has been very much interested in debating and wanted to see more debating among the students of the school. At the firisit meeting the manager, secretary and faculty advisor were elected. They were Della. Reynolds, Alberta Shepek and Miss E. Hicks, respectively. A com- mittee was appointed to draw up a constitution and it was decided that the club should meet regularly on every Tuesday after school in the advisorls room. Before regular debating questions were given to the members they were each given topics to talk upon to try out their voices. Also Miss Novak gave the mem- bers an outline on debate work on which they were to base their debates and de- velop them. Debating questions were later given out to groups of four, two on the Affirmative and two on the Negative, to work upon and present to the club in the next meeting. These questions were selected by an appointed committee and plolsyted on the Clubas bulletin board in the advisoris room. Also extemporaneous e ates were given in the meetings, the debater having five minutes to gather material on the question and timed to a three minute speech. The majority of the inter-class de- baters were members of the Debateris Club and thereby had a better foundation for debating than those who were not members. , ' Debating is considered one of the greatest developers of the. students mind as it gives him self-confidence, ease of speech, and ability to hold his own in an argu- ment. A student, when debating must have confidence in himself if he expects to win the argument and get the best out of it. Debating gives ease of speech because the student becomes used to talking in public and does not become frightened. Also he is well read and does not have to grope after words or expressions in speaking. He is able to hold his own in an argument for he has learned to be sure of what he is talking about before he enters an argument. Althiough a number of members dzfopped out this year from the club, the mem- bers have hopes of a larger membership and a greater prosperity in the club next term. Page Fifty-one . la tr -32 Xi 54 t t, ti ' 3 pw . , . . f:-H ORCHESTRA Among the major organizations of Puente Union High School, which play a most important part in our school life, is Orchestra. It is an interesting subject that not only adds greatly to the social side of our life, but also helps the students to learn and appreciate the value of good music. The members of the orchestra and the instruments they play are piano, Velma Evansg first violins, Marion Hammersley, Marjorie Newton, Raymond Allison and Helen Tindallg second violin, Henry Carrey, Cornet, Eddie Carreyg saxophones, Robert Tindall and George St. Clair, and the drums, Charles Blackburn. Mr. Signor De Caprio, the well-liked and efficient leader of the orchestra, with the help of these members has been able to render many successful musical pro- grams at the Friday night shows throughout the year. Some of the selections played were, uAmerican Legion March, by Carl D. Vanderlootg c'The Vision, by F. V. Blaonadg Hearts and Flowers, by Theo. M. Tobani. On the evening of March the thirty-first Alma Van Wig played a most delight- ful solo on the saxophone and a saxophone quartet, including John Shepek, Albert Tindall, Charles Blackburn and George St. Clair played The Four Rosesf' by Sig- nor De. Caprio. This musical was well enjoyed by the patrons of the show and was 9 one of the best programs along musical lines ever rendered by members of the or- chestra at Puente High. The orchestra ends one of the most delightful and successful years known in the history of Puente Union High School, and we feel honored to say that we were very lucky to be able to secure such an accomplished musician at its head, and hope next vear that the orchestra will continue its successful work under the same director. Page Fifty-tzro PRESS CLUB The Press Club, a new organization just started this year, under the supervision of Miss Novak has progressed very rapidly. Early in the school vear we felt the need of some kind of a news outlet other than the corner in the Puente Journal. So we sent out the call to all those wishing to form a Press Club and the response was splendid indeed. We now have fourteen on our Club roll and we edit a small paper weekly, on the mimeograph, a process which I will say is not without its dis- advantages. But we have persevered and where at first we were simply an idea in the minds of two of our students, we are now a growing organization. The name of our weekly paper is Wllhe Tomahawk, a name which was chosen as the best suit- able for our paper because Puente has a historical background of Indian legend and the name of our annual is the lmagaga, also an Indian name. We have not proved to be a marked success this year, yet we of the Press Club feel that our efforts have not been in vain, and that our editing of this small class paper may lead the school to publish a school paper next year, which we sincerely hope they will do.

A l ice Langdon RADIO CLUB The Radio Club of Puente Union High School is a new organization consisting of ten wireless enthusiasts. At the first of the year, a few of the boys who had wire- less outfits or were interested in their work, formed a club with Mr. H. J. Winters as faculty advisor. Towards the latter part of October, Ralph Deaver brought his wireless set to school, connected it up to an old telephone line, that runs through the attic and re- ceived the musical concert from Los Angeles. The Club decided that lVlr. Winters' mechanical drawing room was more suit- able to have meetings in, so we moved our headquarters to that place. lVlr. Metcalf, a telegraph operator of eight years experience has greatly aided us in practicing the code, by helpful advice and by transmitting on a key and buzzer, for one-half hour every meeting and we are all becoming more proficient in receiving the code. We have constructed a three wire aerial from the main building to the top of the manual training building over which we have received concerts several times. Friday night, March the third, Ralph Deaver operated his set, in connection with a magnavox and a two step ampliher kindly lent to us by lVlr. Corps of El Monte, and we received the concert from C. O. C. Los Angeles. lt came in loud and clear and could be heard all over the auditorium while the show was in progress. The operator had been phoned before and asa special courtesy, he spoke to Puente. OFFICERS OF CLUB FIRST SEMESTER President ,--,il-,,A--,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.,..,. .,...,.... ...........

S. for the first time, this year. lts coming was viewed with great curiosity and doubt, both by students and townspeople. When the season was over, however, almost all had changed their views. This was due to the fact that only one injury was suffered by the players, and that a minor one. The change in attitude was also due to the game itself, which has an appeal to all red- blooded Americans, who recognize in it the highest development of co-operation in mind as well as in body which it instills in all those who follow it. It makes a young man learn to take hard knocks with a smiling face. It teaches him to keep a cool head whe11 things are going the wrong way, and it teaches him to Mbit low and hard and stay with it. This maxiom can be applied to any task. Coach lVlclntosh had a hard job this year when the football season came on. He did not know who would be able to play, and thus he could not order equipment until he did know. He had prospective players who did not know whether they would like the game or not, and they were for the most part, as ignorant of the game as a frog is of the Sahara desert. He made the best of it until the suits came and then, when the players donned their suits and learned what it was to eat dirt and come for more, he had easier sailing. There is something about football that has a magic charm for a young man, and it is remarkable how soon he will pick up the fundamentals of the game. The team was just getting used to the feel of football when the first league game was played. It was with Monetbello and owing to the fact that we had had no prac- tice to speak of they uwalkedi' on us. The next Friday we went to Downey. Downey had a big hundred and eighty pounder that we couldn't stopg we would hit him hard and low and he was so big and fast he would skid three yards on his stomach with us hanging onto his shoes before he would stop. We lost to them 42-0. And then came Norwalk. Norwalk! She came over with the intention of winning by a big score. We foiled them though. Due to Stanley lVloxson's punting and Alphonzo Rowland's ability to get around the ends we slipped over a touchdown' on them. 4'Pipe kicked goal and the score stood l3 to 6 in our favor. The last game of the season was played on our grounds against El Monte. It was played before a big crowd that lined the field with machines on all four sides. We went down gamely Hghting to the last before a team which outweighed us twenty pounds to the man. The score was 42-0. lVluch credit is due Coach Mclntosh, who 'fwhippedw us into shape. v VE 0 X 50 . f 4 Q X l Page Fiftyvsezen BASKETBALL Basketball, one of the major sports in P. U. H. S. was a decided success this year. The season started well for we defeated Covina twice, once on their home grounds. This was no mean feat because Covina is a hard team to beat, always. We played the strong Monrovia nine on their own home grounds also, and would have won only Coach Mclntosh put in the second team to give them experience and we lost 28-11. After 8 days vacation the team came back to school out of condition and the Hrst league game, with Bonita, only a week away. Their strong team defeated us 25-9. We then trained very hard, and went to Montebello to play the Lightweight Champions of the State. At the end of the First half of the game the score stood 12-12. However, in the last half we were tired out and they won from us, 34-18. We next met El Monte on our home grounds and easily won from them 23-10, as we were by this time rounding out into condition. We were now in splendid con- dition and when Downey's big heavy team came to play us we surprised them and sent them home on the short end of a 29-17 score. The last game of the first round came with Norwalk on our home grounds and they were beaten 16-13. This Hnished our first round and we had won three out of the five games. The Hrst game of the second round was with Bonita at home and we run them off their feet 18-10. They had beaten Montebello and when We defeated them every one had us doped to win from Montebello. But they did not reckon with Dame For- tune. The day before the game, Charlie Faure, our center and Captain, and the best center in the League, cut the end of his finger off and was unable to play. This gave Montebello a decided advantage and they won the game 28-12, which put us out of the race as far as the pennant was concerned, but we showed our spirit by defeating El Monte on their home grounds 17-7 in the next game. We also won from Downey, 17-16, and our last game of the season, with Norwalk, by the toss of a coin. Mr. McIntosh is to be highly complimented upon the team which he put out this year. It was due to his efforts and unfailing optimism that made our team such a success this year. Ihfge Fifty-e1'gl1t TRACK It can be said without boasting that this year's track team was one of the best Puente Hi has ever put on the field. The year 1920 was an eventful year in track, for that year, Puente put out the fastest relay team the Valley League has yet pro- duced. This year by a streak of luck, two good sprinters entered P. U. H. S. Paul Blackburn, who took first in the 220-yard dash and fourth in the 100-yard dash at the Valley League Track Meet, held by precedent, at Puente, and Harry Miller, who took fourth place in the 440-yard dash after having the g'flu. Puente took third in this meet, El Monte taking first place, and Bonita second. Stanley, 'Pipew Maxson broke the Valley League record in the Pole Vault by clearing the stick at 10 feet 11 inches, above the old record of 10 feet 9 inches. Also two gold medals were won by Puente in the Valley League Track Meet, by Paul Blackburn and Stanley Maxson. Of the medal winners this year, we lost only four by graduation: Paul Blackburn, Charlie Blackburn,,Harry Miller and Charles Faure. Others winning medals were Nele Davis and Stanley Maxson. The relay teams were as follows: Paul Black- burn. Harrv Miller, Charles Blackburn, and Marion Hammersley. We took second place in the relay. Besides the Valley League Track Meet, held at Puente, we had two dual meets and one triangular meet with other schools of the League. The first meet was with Montebello, and was won by Puente, 67 points to 50. The second dual meet was with Bonita at Puente. Bonita won with 58 points to our 55. The triangular meet was between Puente, El Monte and Covina. Covina took the meet ' 1 ' t . El Monte took second place with 49 points and Puente third with with 50 fg po1n s l , 121f points. Altogether we had a most successful year in track and we hope that 2 next year we may put out a winning team for Puente. Page Fifty-nine W ff 151911: GIRLS BASEBALL TEAM GIRLS7 BASEBALL The girls, indoor baseball season opened shortly after Christmas vacation, with Portia Parriott elected captain and Cecelia Olivares manager. After several tryouts, the team was organized with the following players: Portia Parriott, catcher, Alice Parriott, pitcher, Cecelia Olivares, first base, Helen Didier, second, Helen Metcalf, third, Alice Maxson, short stop, Agnes Didier, short stop, Marjorie Dietzel, left field, Edith Maxson, center, and Carol Boyer, right field. All were determined to win the cup this year. The first game was with Bonita, and Puente defeated them 3-1--0, which was the cause of much rejoicing among the students in Puente Hi. So we looked forward with some assurance to our next game, which was with Norwalk who had won the cup for the past few years. The game was on our home grounds, and we had reason to feel proud of our 6-3 victory as they had their last year's team on the field. The third game was with Downey at Downey and was an easy victory for the Puente team. The score was 9-0. Then El Monte came over to play, and owing to the fact that our regular catcher, first baseman and pitcher were all ill with the Hflun we were defeated. This made it necessary to play Norwalk again after the fifth game had been played with Montebello. This game was played on the Monte- bello diamond and resulted in a score of 14-10 in our favor. Then our coaches, Mr. Winters and Miss Walton, to whom much of the credit for our winning the cup is due, began training us for the final game with Norwalk. We were determined to bring Puente into the winning class by winning this game so all the girls stayed after school and practiced faithfully in order to get into shape for this championship game. It being necessary to play the decisive game on neutral ground El Monte was chosen and the eventful day came. We were ably supported by a full attendance of fellow students, faculty, and people from our home community which always means a great deal to a contesting team, and the result was a victory for Puente with a score of ten to nine. The score was rather close for comfort we admit, but we won which marked a milestone for the team and brought the first silver cup to our school. Our next year's captain and manager are Alice Parriott, and Helen Didier, re- spectively, and under their capable guidance we hope to bring another cup home to Puente. fat MES FTDEFQNJ Page Sixty-alle Qi' -' -X f If xf , KJ, gl,- 9, .-.' 4 gi s BASEBALL TEAM BASEBALL The baseball season started off in a very promising manner this year. Several practice games were played in which we more than won our shareg chalking up vic- tories over such schools as Citrus, Monrovia, Covina, and Harvard Military. The first league was played at Montebello. Kranz held them scoreless for five innings and was then relieved by Maxson who allowed them only one run. Score 6-1. The following week we met Bonita on our home grounds. From away back in his- tory down to Modern time Puente has defeated Bonita at baseball. This year was no exception and Bonita went home with the small end of an 8-3 score. We then met El Monte and after nine innings of hard playing we took the game by a narrow margin of 7-6. We then suffered from a bad case of over-confidence and Norwalk defeated us on their grounds, 6-2. They did all their scoring in the first inning, so we knew they could be beaten and patiently waited for the second round. Downey dropped out of the running so we did not meet them this year. The second round opened with Norwalk leading and our team in second place. It looked as if there would be a repetition of things as they happened in the first round. Puente defeating Montebello B-4, Bonita 15-7, and El Monte 10-6. Then came Norwalk. Our only chance lay in defeating them and tying up the league championship. Coach Mclntosh decided to try a left hander on them so Charles Kranz was sent to the slab. Kranz was right and Norwalk soon became worried as inning after inning passed with no hits and no runs. True they were hitting the ball but someone was always there. In the fourth inning Conde walked, Hammersley struck out and then Deaver saved the day by smashing a three-bagger over the right l:lGlClC1'7S head. Captain Faure followed by a single scoring Deaver. Norwalk was unable to find Kranz for more than three scattered singles and had to swallow a goose egg which was the most bitter pill they ever took. This ended the league schedule and tied Norwalk and Puente for first place for the championship. The play off will not take place till after this goes to press. In summing up, the season just past has proved to be the most successful ever played for Puente. Our team lost only four out of sixteen games played and remain undefeated for the second season on our home grounds. Every man on the squad played good ball with a spirit that is bound to win for P. U. H. S. The highest honors for batting this year go to Ralph Deaver who averaged 432. V C ' ' -v - ' .'::' :garb fv.o '.. . I .9 gg cb 0,10 ,og Cl O Page Sixty-three GIRLS' AND BOYS' TENNIS This is the first year the boys and girls have ever really entered into the .tennis spirit in Puente Union High School, and we hope to next year put out a winning team as our team will be intact. Early in the year we had tryouts in the school to determine who should represent the school in the interscholastic Tennis Tournament which was held at El Monte April 6, 1922. The girls' doubles were won by Alice Parriott and Edith lVlaxson, the boys' doubles by Damon McCoy and John tlnce, and the girls' and boys' singles by Portia Parriott and Kermit Graham respectively. Immediately all began practicing for the tournament. But they had only three weeks in which to get in shape before the League tournament. Nevertheless they did their best and made a good showing in the final matches, at El lVIonte. The girls' doubles defeated Norwalk in the semi-tinals giving them each a letter, but in the finals were beaten by El lVIonte who won the tournament. The boys' doubles were defeated in the semi-finals, so did not place in the finals. Portia Par- riott won the semi-finals against Norwalk who were compelled to forfeit the match. Kermit Graham was forced to play against the worst opponent in the league at the very outset, Keeley of El Monte, and although he gave him a hard run for his money he was defeated in the semi-finals and so did not place in the finals. Those receiving their letters this year were Alice Parriott, Edith Maxson, and Huth Tabor. GIRLS' BASKETBALL Basketball is a major sport among the girls of Puente High School but it is not so well known as Indoor Baseball. Although we are looking forward to making it an interscholastic rather than an inter-class sport next year, as we have girls in Puente who are very enthusiastic over the game and would do everything in their means to make Puente excel above all other schools in the League in the sport. All of our basketball games this year were devoted to inter-class games. The first one was be- tween the Sophomores and the Freshmen. The Freshies won over the Sophomores by a score of eleven to thirteen. Then the Freshmen had to meet the Seniors who had won from the Juniors through forfeiting, as the Juniors had not enough girls to play. In about two weeks the two teams met on the court, and the Seniors de- feated the Freshmen, nine to twenty-two. This made the third year that the Seniors have won inter-class basketball and the silver cup. Page Sixty-four OCIG SOCIETY NEWS Puente, Cal., Sept. 12, 1921. Dearest Diary: School started today, and there are so many new people. There were no les- sons of course and we just signed up for our subjects and tried to get acquainted. Puente, Cal., Sept. 13, 1921. Dear Diary: The Girls' League gave a party for the new girls, so that they could become acquainted with one another. We played games and then had delicious refresh- ments, everyone was glad to have an opportunity to meet the new girls, and we all had such a good time. Puente, Cal., Sept. 25, 1921. Dear Diary: lt's so late but l must tell you about the Freshman Reception. The poor little lfreshiesl First they were locked out of the building, which was very sad. everyone of them coming early so as not to be so conspicuous and then they were locked out and they had no idea what would happen to them while out there. At last they were let in and had a jolly time in the hall. After awhile they were taken into the Assembly and made to do everything that made them look ridiculous. some even had to eat cold macaroni which they thought were worms. But all things must end, so they had some delicious refreshments and were al- lowed to go home. Dear Diary: Puente, Cal., Sept. 28, 1921. The Seniors had a picnic at Fish Canyon and had a wonderful time. They went on the big bus with Mr. Mclntosh as chaperon, and when they arrived they walked around and then had supper around a camp fire. Dear Diary: Puente, Cal., October 1, 1921.

Dear Diary: b The sophomores went to Brookside Park and had a picnic. Some of them went in swimming but the water was very cold and felt as though there should be icebergs floating on it. But in spite of all they had a very good time. Puente, Cal., Nov. 7, 1921. Dear Diary: The Girls' League gave a Mothers, Tea this afternoon with the help of the Faculty. A very entertaining program was given and the Mothers enjoyed a social afternoon which enabled them to become acquainted with the girls and their Mothers. A delightful tea was served which consisted of sandwiches, tea, cookies, and candy. Puente, Cal., Nov. 19, 1921. Dear Diary: The Freshmen had a party at Brookside Park, Miss Walcott and Mr. Winters were chaperones. They left High School about ten-thirty and went in the big bus, which was very crowded, because the Freshies may be small in years and mentality but they are not small in numbers. They roasted weiners over a camp fire for luncheon, then went in swimming. They had a hard time getting the caretaker to allow them to go swimming because it was so cold, and when he at last gave in they were surely sorry they had been so sure that they knew best, because the water was anything but tropical in temperature. Puente, Cal., Nov. 26, 1921. Dear Diary: The Seniors hiked to Mt. Wilson and had a good time but there were remarks made bv some of them that assured us that they would have had a better time had there been more girls along. Maybe we are not so superfluous as we are led to believe. Puente, Cal., Dec. 10, 1921. Dear Diary: The Freshmen and Sophomores had a party at the West Covina Clubhouse, which was very tastefully decorated. They played games and had a candy pull. The candy was very good but was also very sticky so it was a very stuck up party. Puente, Cal., Dec. 16, 1921. Dear Diary: 4 Y We had the best time tonight. The Girls' League gave a dinner. lioasts were made and the girls were given speeches on different parts of the home and school life. P Page Sixty-scrcu The dinner was given strictly for the girls and the faculty, but there were. some who were so possessed with curiosity as to come and peek through a crack in the door. However, 1 am glad to say that this does not apply to all those who were not invited. V Puente, Cal., December, 1921. Dear Diary: Celia Olivares gave a party for the Seniors.

Maxson and Miss Novak were chaperones of the evening. Puente, Cal., March 18, 1922. Dear Diary: The Girls' League gave a wonderful St. Patricks Ball at the B. F. Maxson home. lt was a costume ball and some of the costumes which were represented were mar- velous: A Colonial dame, an Indian girl, a negress, boy scouts, a certain lady in a Yamma Yarnma suit, and so many more in different colors and styles that it is im- possible to describe them all. The evening was spent in dancing and the names of the dances were lrish. ln fact everything was lrish. A pig was made by each girl on a slip of paper of chewing gum, and later in the evening each was requested to draw a map of Ireland. Many, however, did not know their geography very well. The refreshments were white ice cream, French pastry frosted in white and green, and green and white candy. Everyone had a wonderful time and certainly enjoyed the opportunity to get together for a while. l'ugr' .Sl.7tfA1'!'l-gill Puente, Cal., March 25, 1922.

S. to know what their predecessors are doing, we are giving the following personal glimpses into the lives of each of the Classof '21: I Q Leota Frazier, the president of the class, has been improving her time in var- ious ways. She is studying at home this year, preparatory to entering college next fall, and finds a great deal of pleasure in whistling for the public. I Esther Colville has been an ornament in Mr. Blee's private ofiice and also pur- Pagc Sezwzlv-tlizw' sued a few studies at P. U. H. S. as well as improving her piano technique under a well known Los Angeles musician. . Mable Cooper is an enthusiastic Freshman at Pomona College, too busy to even give us an interview. Harold Peters, alias 6'Pete,,' is working in a big garage at Whittier, putting into effect his knowledge of bookkeeping gained at old Puente Hi. Alvina Dreyer, Clara Dethelfs, Neva Turner, Hannah and Clara Martinez are staying at home, improving their time in various Ways. Markham Salsbury is working hard at the California Institute of Technology at Pasadena. The class suffered a severe shock and loss in the person of Frank M. Welch, who passed from this life March 4-th, while attending Occidental College, where he was making good in his inimitable way in the various college activities. Wilbur Larmer is a Freshman at Oregon Agricultural College and is studying to Ht himself for a successful ranching career. Lenore Rawlond is taking a kindergarten teacherls course at Southern Branch, and is in love with her work. John Eggers is assisting his father on their ranch in the Heights and is planning to attend college next year. Frank Hannah is working in a Radio Station in Los Angeles as a salesman.
