f,,,. L .-X., EL. ECO Published Annually By The Students Of The LINCOLN UNION HIGH SCHOOL VOLUME XXVII Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-Seven LINCOLN, CALIFORNIA EL ECO FCREIDORD Since so many events which have added to the development of our nation have taken place during the past year, what theme could be more appropriate for this annual than progress and achievement? As we look back over the year that has passed, we find that a great deal of this progress has been made in our own state. About one hundred and twenty-five miles from us, spanning the San Francisco Bay stand two huge structures, the bay bridges. The completion of these two gigantic engineering masterpieces will be remembered as the two outstanding events of the past year. But this isn't the only great achievement that has been made. The progress msade in communication by those giant birds, the clipper ships, is not soon to be forgotten. Then, too, there was the completion of Boulder Dam and many other events that were perhaps smaller, but which also added to the advancement of our nation and the world. We wish to call your attention particularly to the two beautiful illustrations drawn by the art editors for this annual. The first illustration shows the grad-uate visualizing the accomplish- ments of the present and dreaming of the future. The second illustration shows him as an older man as he sits thinking pleasant thoughts of the past and his school days. iI937 I To the memory of our beloved classmate, June Miller, whose tragic death left a vacancy in our class that can never be filled and whose loving ways and sunny smile made the time that she was with us seem more pleasant, we dedicate this annual. EL ECO f Form Cfhe Talk of Toclaq I live on a hill overlooking the sea, And although I know this is the place for me, It gets lonely sometimes. Out of my little bed I creep, I steal through the house on tiptoeing feet, Cautiously, for there are others asleep. I slip out into the night Where I know there's no one in sight And marvel at the solitudethat comes with the night When the moon is shining far out on the bay, I can see most plainly The talk of today, The Golden Gate Bridge.

Flora Mancebo was chosen to take June Mi1ler's place as El Eco Editor. Although it was late when the yell leader, Clifford Kaufield, was elected, he did much to arouse the school spirit and pep up the teams. Dances were given by the student body at various times throughout the year, and two plays were given during the evening to help raise funds for the El Eco. The Carnival was a greater success than it was in previous years and helped a great deal in financing this annual.

Although Eulogio Nevarez does not have his picture in this El Eco, he is a member of the graduating class. The members of the class, girls as well as boys, have been very active in athletics all through their high school years. Due to the death of our classmate, June Miller, who had a leading role in the senior play, Big Hearted Herbert , which was to be given on February 11, no senior play was given this year. This year's senior class did a great deal to help make the carnival a success, giving two stunts instead of the usual one. They sponsored the dance and the spinning wheel. The Senior Ball was given on May 21, and the decoration theme was a garden in May. The All Star Orchestra from Marysville was engaged to play for the dancing. After completing four successful years of high school, this graduating class of 1937 looks to the future for even brighter and happier years. ---+3-0-Page --- JUNE 11 --- A scroll in hand, A queer looking hat, A gown too large, Graduation!

The first activity was the Junior Prom. The dance was given in the high school gym. The decoration theme, which was attractively carried out, was that of a yacht. The orchestra was The All Stars from Marysville. This orchestra was new here, and it attracted a large crowd, which made the dance a total success. The next event was the concessions which we sponsored in the school's annual carnival. They were boxing and wrestling, directed by Mr. Lee and Mr. Adams, and the boys' ring work and the girls' tumbling, directed by Mr. Lee and Miss Awnderson. After the carnival during the dance given by the senior class we also had a raffle. The prizes were three dollars and two dollars.

The membership numbers fifty-two with the best balance in instrumentation since the band was organized. The band contest in Davis the latter part of last year was quite an inspiration for students that like to play in band competition. Our band Won first place in Class D and E averaging more points in playing ability than any band in competition in any class. Engagements for the present year were many and are thus listed: The basketball games, rallies, Holy Ghost Celebration, and Home Coming. One of the important factors that made many of these engagements successful was the fact that the band was uniformed. This was made possible by the band members themselves and the school. Caps were purchased with band funds by the school and the students bought the remainder of the ensemble. Now that the band has really established itself, it is hoped that in another year the band will be the best and largest band in the history of the school. l 9 3 7 TWENTY-ONE EL ECO First Row: Ferrero, Viola Whaley, Allen, Lavendahl, M.

Strings must have had experience in some other organization before being allowed to register for orchestra. Brass and woodwind players are selected from the band by the instructor. The enrolled orchestra for the year numbered forty. Many programs were furnished for school engagements. Selected players played numbers for community plays. Instrumental solos were an added feature of many programs. The students capable of doing this function were George Wallace, saxophone, Bob Coe, clarinet, Kenneth Bayless, tromlboneg and Jane Grey on the piano. Other work of these soloists was to play at the Woman's Club on two occasions. An added instrument of the orchestra this year was the cello played by Elsie Reed, who studied the instrument in grammar school and has displayed talent for the time she has studied it. The orchestra has a promising future with many string players coming up from the elementary schools, always a strong encouragement for any string section of any school orchestra. . - I 9 3 7 We-e TWENTY-TWO 1 w - 2 EL ECO sf Mr. Williams QCoachJ, Hellewell, M.

The subject will be Resolved: That Electrical Utilities Should Be Governmentally Owned and Operated. The debators will be John Markell, Clifford Kaufield, and George Wallace. Because John Markell and Charles Millar joined the team late, they did not get in the picture. Melba Maloney, who was in the picture, withdrew from school because of poor health. This was an extremely bad year because we could not get debates. Mr. iWilliamls, our coach, has tried very hard to get us debates. In view of this fact, we wish to thank him for trying so hard and for his excellent supervision. M I 9 3 7 TWENTY-THREE EL ECO 1 First Row: Jorstad, B. Wyatt, W. Brown, Millar, P. Wyatt, Ferrero.

The material was written by the English Class under Mrs. Leavell's instruction and mimeographed by the office practice class under the supervision of Miss Oreason. The paper was issued every two weeks and was sold for three cents a copy. The staff also subscribed to the Roto-Review, a rotogravure section picturing school activities throughout the World. This monthly paper was included in every other issue of the Hi Times Without extra charge. On the Whole, the Hi Times has been a successful and accurate picture of L. U. H. S. activities. The money made through the sales has aided in the publication of this annual. I 9 3 7 TWENTY-FOUR ' EL ECG First Row: Obexer, Coe, C. Kaufield, Hellewell, Kadel, Sandstad, Nevarez Second Rbw: J.

She has given us many interesting talks of her experiences in Mexico. She has helped us to get a Well organized orchestra in which all the members have taken part by either singing or playing some of Mexico's most loved songs. We have devoted much of our time in learning Mexico's customs, and now we have a much better picture of Mexico. The Spanish Club was very successful with the cafe, La Cucaracha, which was part of the carnival's attraction. Luscious food was served. Also exhilarating drinks were served at the cocktail bar. We have done our utmost to make this year's club a worthy one. Now, let us hope that next year we may all get together and climb a little higher than we have this year.

A huge stocking filled with Christmas goodies was raffled at the time also. The proceeds of the dance were distributed to the needy of Lincoln. On March 13 and 14 six Hi Y Girls attended the Older Girls' Conference at Richardson Springs. The girls were assigned to cabins for the week-end, and they enjoyed all the other things Richardson Springs has to offer. Those who went were Frieda Molinario, Juanita Shinn, Dorene Neville, Jane Grey, Helen Stevens, and Nadine Vogt. Dorene's mother accompanied them, furnishing the transportation. Methods of making money throughout the year were by selling flowers at the Junior Prom and at the carnival. A dance with a floor show was gtixen in April also, but as the weather conditions were bad, there wasn'I much of a profit.

It lives a life that is pure and strong And leans with the wind when called upon. It is a symbol of beauty and grace. Its boughs are covered with flimsy lace. It looks so lonely just standing there. It makes one stop to think and stare. Zula Dougherty, 37 .W Clihe Mountain Alone stands the snow-capped mountain, Guarding the land from an unseen foe. It stands like a sentinel, never changing its place Its trees are like soldiers waiting to go. In its bosom it shelters its many friends. Its summit catches the slightest breeze. It reveals no secret of its purpose there. Its peak is conquered by none with ease.

Wyatt, Wallace, Towle A Team The Lincoln A and B teams ended the 1936-37 basketball season far down the league standings but managed to give their opponents some stiff' battles. The A team was headed by Captain Bill Wyatt, who was the highest scorer on the team. Pershing Wyatt, Edward Kadel, Chuck Towle, and George Wallace comprised the starting lineup. The latter two will be back next year. The A team won two of its league games and lost eight. The B team could not get started until the last few games of the season. Although the B's won only two and lost eight of their league games, they ended their season with four straight wins, two of these being league games. Their biggest victory of the season was when they defeated the Grant B's who had beaten Placer earlier in the season. Earl Brown and Willie Gamboa were the B team's high scorers. Willie Gamboa also starred for the C team, which won two and lost four of its league games.

ROSEVILLE AT LINCOLN, JANUARY 8 The Lincoln A's lost a heart-breaking overtime contest on the local court to the Roseville squad. Some beautiful one-handed shots by Royer ol' Roseville gave his team a 26 to 24 victory over the Lincoln boys. Bill Wyatt scored 15 points for Lincoln. The Lincoln B's were completely out-classed, and Roseville won by a score of 35 to 15. I 9 3 7 THIRTY-THREE EL.

But the local defense crumpled in the second half, and Grass Valley began to hit the bucket easily. Bill Wyatt scored' 12 points for Lincoln. The Lincoln B's could not get going and were beaten by the Gras.: Valley lightweights, 37 to 16. PLACER AT LINCOLN, FEBRUARY 5 The Lincoln teams gave the Placer coaches something to worry about during both games. The A's held the Placer A's to a 7 to 6 score at half- time. But Placer came back in the second half to win 30 to 19. The Placer B's were likewise given a scare by the Blue and Gold cagers. 'I'he locals held a 16 to 14 lead at the first quarter but trailed at halftime. 24 to 18. Fernandez, Placer ace, dropped 23 points through the loop for the evening and was the most outstanding played on the court. Brown, Gamboa and Venegas played well for Lincoln. LINCOLN AT ROSEVILLE FEBRUARY 12 The local A team came home with its first league win from the Roseville team, 24 to 23. Bill Wyatt captured scoring honors for Lincoln by scoring 16 points. The B's looked a lot better than in their previous games but were beaten by the Tiger Babes, 30 to 26. Although Lincoln led at half-time 14 to 11, the boys went to pieces during the second half.

The Lincoln B's scored their biggest victory of the year by winning from the Grant B's, 25 to 24. This game tossed the Grant team out of a first-place tie with Placer for the B division.

Hunter fManag'erJ Baseball The Lincoln High School baseball team has just finished one of its most disastrous seasons, winning only one practice game and not winning any league games. The Lincoln boys tried hard., but the breaks were against them. The pitching staff, being especially weak this year, could not stop the hitting attack by th-e other schools. The batting honors were taken by George Wallace with a percentage of .318 closely followed by Harry Ferrero. Lincoln hopes for a better season next year with a considerable increase in pitching power shown by the improvement of both Korff and Martinez near the end of the season, and the donning of suits by the m'ajority of the boys. The lineup for this season was as follows: Korff, Martinez, and Bill Wyatt alternating at the pitcher's mound, Wallace, catcherg Ferrero, first base, Mazzoni, second baseg Neville, third base, Earl Brown, shortstopg Towle, left field, P.
