Social Activities Fiv« WILLIAM JOSLYN Pratidant HAIL OFFICERS! BARBARA DON Vice President ROBERT CURLEY Treasurer ALBERT GARCIA Secretary Under the leadership of William Joslyn, Lowell ' s football center and co-captaIn, the student body enjoyed a busy and victorious term with many school rallies and social functions. The job of preparing school rallies and presiding over the Board of Directors meetings are two of the most important du- ties that a student body president must perform. The office of girls ' vice president was cap- ably filled by Barbara Don this term. She conducted all the girls rallies, including the main event of the term, the Girls ' Jinx, and ably assisted president Josyin with prepara- tions for school rallies. Barbara usually intro- duced the girl vice presidents of the visiting high schools to help promote good fellow- ship between the students. As leader of the girls, she led them in cheering for their team. Under the guidance of former yell leader, Robert Curley, the student body card sales reached a high mark, with ninety-six per cent of the students buying them. Robert was in charge of managing the card stunts at the football games, and, this term, had a larger number of students taking part in the stunts than usual. Albert Garcia, the quarter back of Lowell ' s football team, served as student body sec- retary. It was his duty to write the minutes of the Board of Directors meetings and to keep the records in order. NOEL REYBURN Yell Ledder After being an assistant for two consecu- tive terms, Noel Reyburn was elected head yell leader. He kept school spirit high, lead- ing the school yells and songs. Noel helped to nnanage the card stunts at the gannes. With a large rooting section cooperating, he lead the football team to many victories and made school rallies more enjoyable. Elected editor of the Red and White this term was Bruce Sutherland, hie spent the semester preparing a journal of which Lowell could be proud, which is no easy task. In the past, Bruce has worked as co-senior edi- tor and financial manager. It is an editor ' s job to see that all school activities are writ- ten in the journal, and that the book is fin- ished as scheduled. Robert Rockwell rose from a reporter, to the office of Circulation Manager, to editor of the Lowell. Through his efforts the cur- rent events of Lowell were made easier to follow. A new feature article this term was Lowell, Day by Day. Bob strove hard to make the Lowell a good school paper, and succeeded through his hard work. With one and a half years experience to her credit, Evelyn Baier was elected cafe- teria manager. She was in charge of the cafeteria in general, and other social events, including all of the courtesy lunches served to special guests visiting at Lowell. In the Board of Directors meetings, school affairs and financial matters were carefully discussed. The fine work of Lowell ' s student body offi- cers has made this term an especially pleas- urable one. They deserve all our thanks and gratitude. BRUCE SUTHERLAND Editor of the Red and White. ROBERT ROCKWELL Editor of the Lowell EVELYN BAIER Cafeteria Manager THE PRINCIPAL ' S ESSAGE An official, city-wide contest was held this term for the best essay by a high school student on Thanksgiving For America . Our English teachers selected the composition that in their opin- ion best represented the work of our English Department. The Judges awarded first prize to the essay from Lowell High School. This essay carries the message I had in mind for you, and far more convincingly than anything I might have written. I quote it, therefore, with permission of the writer, Robert Twohy: I, an American, thank God for many things: I thank God that my national anthem sings of bombs that have burst, and not of bombs that someday shall burst. I thank God that the men of my country, though they may be forced into bread lines, will not be forced into battle lines. I thank God that I am tongue-free, not tongue-tied; and that when I read my morning paper, I may read the lines, and not between them. I thank God that I may state my religion, and need not make a state my religion. I thank God that a ' powerful offensive ' does not bring to my mind a million men with guns — but rather eleven men with a football. I thank God that the only concentration camp I know is the classroom. I thank God that my urge to victimize is a youthful urge, and is conf ned to two days of my year: the first day of April, and the last day of October. I thank God that soft chimes, and not shrill sirens, will sign off my radio programs. I thank God that my country is a gateway, and not a dead wall. I thank God that my neighbors and I live in America — and that America lives in us. L. H. STEPHENS. B«M The newest structure on the University of California cannpus — The John L.

Nin«t «n GLASS HISTORY This is our Commencement — the beginning of a new chapter in our lives: a day which should bring forth joy and excited anticipation. Yet, in each of our hearts there dwells a deep feeling of regret, and a fond memory to be treasured always — Lowell High School, our Alma Mater, the home of so many wonderfully spent days. Today, as we look back upon our first few days at Lowell, we relive every emotion, so vividly were they branded into our memories. We found ourselves in a huge building, teeming with students busily going to and from their classes. Our ranks were soon divided JEAN LEViNSON ® were assigned registry rooms. New friends were made in no time. With the ciaii Hiitorian cldnging of lockers, the sampling of our first hot dog, the perplexing room numbers — our bewilderment increased, but our pleasure was indescribable. At rallies we soon joined wholeheartedly in our school yells and learned then the meaning of Lowell patriotism. We cheered our teams on to their many victories and sorrowed in their de- feats. In the middle of the term we were entertained by the upper classmen at our Freshman Reception. We were told of the service societies, and we made membership in them a goal to strive for. Some of our fellow classmen soon began to serve In the library, cafeteria and offices. Yes, we had become true Lowellltes. Foremost in our minds is the recollection of the sympathy and patient understanding with which Mr. Stephens, our vice principals and our faculty cared for us. At the beginning of the new year we became sophomores, and our numbers and friendships in- creased when the Junior High School graduates joined us — rounding out the class of January, 1940. We became eager club members, and were proud to find our boys earning Block L ' s, our girls enthusiastically joining the Girls ' Athletic Association, and our scholars proving their worth by becoming members of the California Scholarship Federation. As the days flew by, each full of activities, new adventures, we soon found the term had come to an end and Christmas vacation awaited us. Anxious to commence a new semester and be united once again with our many friends, we found this brief holiday to be soon over and we returned to Lowell as Juniors! Now at last we had become upper classmen, faced with new responsibilities, new-found independence. Our courses were no longer arranged for us, and now, with careful selections and with consciousness of the need for grades and courses that would conform with college requirements, we mapped out our programs in an efficient and competent manner. We were to have our own leaders, and with unbiased minds we chose wisely our offi- cers. With the dance committee ' s assistance, we presented our first Low Junior Dance — truly a gala occasion for us. The members of our class began to participate in all the widespread activities that Lowell off- ered. Our more talented members debated while others played in school productions. Many showed definite musical and artistic ability: the journalistically inclined wrote for the Lowell and the Red and White. We were proud, indeed, to see some of our classmates elected into the service societies and others winning athletic victories. Certainly we h ad come a long way from those bawlldered and toddling freshmen: we had now blossomed into young men and women. Lower c ' assmen began to look to us for guidance and leadership, and for the true interpretation of Lowell spirit. Another term ended. Could it be that we were at last to be Seniors, to be the leaders of our school? Yes, after a brief vacation we returned with new vigor and looked at each other with a proud, knowing expression. We were Seniors at long last! We were at once swept in a whirl of activities. Our class members headed the student body and service societies. We endeavored to the best of our ability to help our lower classmen along the right lanes. We outdid one another in setting good examples and making the last year a success. Twa.-.ty In the midst of our high-senior ternn we canne to realize that graduation was not far off, for senior pictures were taken, dues collected and earnest preparations were made for our gradu- ation. We have been proudly wearing our senior sweaters and pins during the last few months at Lowell. During our senior year the Golden Gate International Exposition opened. Our school and class- mates took an enthusiastic part in all of its student activities — debating tournaments, school broadcasts and musical entertainments. Everyone acclaimed the Exposition as a thing of com- pelling beauty. It served to enlarge our vision, to hlep us in the appreciation of Nature, Art and in all the finer things of life. Although this Pageant of the Pacific came to an end, there remains in all our memories, a picture of interest, education, entertainment and beauty. So too, does Lowell remain in the minds of each and every one of us at this graduation. With a sudden realization that tragedy often disturbs the serenity of life, we heard the dis- astrous news that war had been declared in Europe. A horrible holocaust is going on across the seas, nations are crumbling, lives being snuffed out. We are at once thankful that we are citi- zens of our own good country, attending a high school in peace and security, able to serve our country and contribute to its welfare. Truly this Is a Commencement — the beginning of an unchartered future. The past is now his- tory, but the future, we hope, will be a reflection of the past. We have reason to be proud of our years at Lowell, and we look to the future for a life of service and accomplishment — a future which may be a credit to Lowell and to ourselves.

Choosing the timely Gayway theme, the acts performed by Scroll and Shield struck an all time high in popular favor. The only club to claim a lower classman as president was the Advanced Chess, with John Pool. Debaters were Jacqueline Farb, and Seymour Meister. Shirley Burke and Anita Ames were on the Red and White ; Marjorle Helzberg, Jean Malone, and Marjorie Weigel were on the art staff. Shirley Button and Edna La- gorio sang in the Triple Trio. The California Scholarship Federation has 79 lower class members. The most popular subjects seemed to be Civics, with 156 students, General Science, with 292 students, and Algebra, with 585 students. History, mathematics, and art also drew a large number. The lower classmen have shown great interest in sports. 1 20 ' s basketball claimed Coleman, Lew, Lum, Mas- terson, and McPherson; the I lO ' s, Chinn and Gilpin. Robert Troppmann has been active in football! The girls, also showed liking for various sports. The Lower Classmen are sure to be leading Lowellites in the future.

The society was led by David Thurm, president; Edgar Cerf, vice president; and Harold Silver- stein, secretary. Mr. Monroe, dean of boys, Mr. Walsh, and Mr. Neff, acted as supervisors. This term, a new organization called The Big Brothers was formed. The members of this group acquainted the newcomers with Lowell ways and also gave them helpful advice. David Thurm was the presiding officer. Much credit is due to the traffic squad for the fine work it has rendered Lowell. The squad was under the direction of Mr. Walsh and Captain Edmund Ellis.

CAROL CHRISTIAN President PREP SCHOLARS With a membership of one hundred and eighfy-nine students, the Lowell chapter of the California Scholarship Federation completed its fifth year of existence. Mr. S. W. Moore and Mr. L. B. Barnes served efficiently as the society ' s faculty advisors. Carol Christian was elected president; Barbara Bammann, vice president: and Phyllis White, secretary. On Octo- ber 14, twenty-six delegates represented Lowell at the thirteenth district convention. Dr. Franz Schneider, faculty advisor of Phi Beta Kappa at the University of California and speaker of the day, praised Lowell for its fine coaching system, on the occasion. The coaching group was the most important C.S.F. committee this term. It consisted of nine supervisors who helped students with such difficult subjects as geometry, Latin, and chemistry every day in 142. The coaches were: Barbara Bammann, Gloria Bittles, Barbara Burke. Rosemary Gantner, James Livingston, Gloria Meyer, Takiko Nonaka, Marjorie Schnittger, and Phyllis White. Other committees were the membership committee, Jacqueline Manuel, chairman: publicity, Elena Thomas; and emblem committee, Barbara Bammann. The dance committee, headed by Marie Cummings planned a very successful dance for C.S.F. members and their guests on December 13. The theme of the dance was Hawaii . To become a member of the society, a student must have at least three A ' s and one B in his final report. Life membership can be attained by any student who has been on the C.S.F. two- thirds of his time at Lowell, one of these terms in his senior year. The motto of the California Scholarship Federation is, Scholarship for Service ' , and its purpose is to foster scholarship and general achievement on the part of the students of all high schools in the state of California.

Flexsenhar and Lieu- tenant Colonel hlooper O ' Sullivan, made great strides forward. William Garry served as major. Battalion parades were held every Wednesday during the eighth period. The battalion was di- vided into three companies: Company A, under Captain Aaronson; Company B, under Cap- tain Mason and Captain Miralda; and Company C, under Captain deFremery. Captain Mason and Captain Miralda alternated for command of Company B. The R.O.T.C. Band was headed by Jack Rubke, with Roy Harding as marching director. The high-light of the term was the Commandant ' s Cup Competition in which all San Francisco high schools participated. The winning unit cannot be published as this article goes to press. However, Lowell looks as it it stands a good chance in winning the parade drill, but the battalion will have six other well-drilled school battalions competing against it, making the competition very strong. Men from the Lowell unit helped the traffic squad to perfect its morching. The Officers ' and Sergeants ' Club was presided over by Lieutenant Colonel O ' Sullivan, while the Saber Club was led by Captain deFremery. The annual Officers ' and Sergeants ' banquet to be held at the end of the semester promises to be a great success. Twenty-nine Major Garry Company A fourth Row — Bruch, Stmchfield, Hanjen. Schuli.

His devoted efforts, together with the assist- ance of Mrs. V. T. Kuhnle, experienced faculty advisor, were instru- mental in the success of the journal. The two associate editors, Jean Levinson and Elena Thomas, proved to be a great help. Elena, who has been on the staff for several terms, as literary editor, did the writing for the division pages. Jean Levinson, another staff veteran, was senior editor. She had the difficult task of finding and recording personal information about each graduate. The job of financial manager is a very difficult one. However, it was excellently handled by Joseph Mitchell, and his two assistants, Marilyn Adams and Donald Beanston. Photography was dispatched with remarkable accuracy, as was the final distribution of the book.

Seven girls ' sports were ably taken care of by Pauline DeCarlo and her assistant Anita Ames. The music department was thor- oughly covered by Alice Bloom, Robert Cardinal, and Lucy Mouradian. Shirley Burke, Donald Beanston, and Arthur Schumacher compiled information about the service societies and committees. The large C.S.F. organization was reviewed by Ruth Kaufman. Ralph Spiegl handled debating and dramatics, while Lucy Mouradian took care of the clubs. The high senior article was written by Wlillam hiarrlson; the low seniors by Marilyn Adams, who also helped Shirley Burke with the juniors. Edito.- Sutherland wrote the Foreword, and Apprecia- tion. Mr. O. H. McCord had the huge task of arranging over 1 ,600 students into groups for the photographer. In addition to this, he carefully laid out all pages, in the book insuring careful cutting and mounting of pictures and attractiveness of page design. College life was chosen as the theme of the Red and White. The different campus scenes should be of interest to all. The staff produced a journal with many new features in it. The use of ivory paper, sepia ink, four page lithographed divisions in different colored stock and ink gives the book a pleasingly different appearance. Miss F. L. hierrmann supervised the excellent art staff, which consisted of: William Callahan, Denver Greer, John Haase, Edward Jellins, Angelo Misthos, Robert Pedigo, Alvyn Rembold, Robert Simon, Allen Wong, Clare Bush, Marjor ' e Close, Emma Mae Cowden, Marie Cummings, Inga Friedman, Gloria Granucci, Marjorie Helzberg, Carolann MacDonald, Thelma Selix, Peggy Warde, and Marjorie Weigel. The art work maintains the same high quality that has won its past acclaim. Another new feature of the book is the use of cartoons in the sports ' section. This new task was taken on by the art staff. Emma Mae Cowden, designer of this cover, has won a year ' s scholarship to the California School of Fine Arts. Allen Wong did the printing on this cover. He also printed the last cover and will be missed next term. We owe a great djai to this artistic group.

MdK Lowen Ted Pohlmann Jane Riedy Warren Unna Floyd Walker PREP PRESSME Under the supervision of Miss E. M. Osborn. the Lowell staff did a splendid piece of work this term. Robert Rockwell was the capable editor and Roberta Falen, associate editor. Edmund Normoyle was in charge of boys ' sports, and Katinka Gallin, girls ' sports. Club activi- ties were described by Phyllis Roos, while Barry Kendall was the efficient circulation manager. The able reporters of the staff were, Hans Beetz, Richard Borden, Eugene Clark. Jean Cohen, Edwin Conn, Charles Davis, Helen Degenhardt, Herbert Fowler, Richard Landre, Betty-Mae Lewis, Pia Lombardi, Max Lowen, Ted Pohlmann, Jane Riedy, Max Rubinchik, Gloria Sproul, Warren Unna, and Floyd Walker. A new, enlarged joke column, Stuff and Things , written by Robert Rockwell, was always eagerly sought and widely read. Other highlights of the paper were the ever-popular Teepee Tattle Tales , revealing the latest gossip around Lowell, and the Letter Box, in which the famous Ali Ban Jo answered questions of all students. Fine editorials by the staff demonstrated Low- ell ' s interest in the more serious problems of the day. Lowell Day by Day a novel feature — written by Roberta Falen, disclosed the many incidents, funny and serious, happening around the school. Cardinal Captains told the history of the captains of the various Lowell teams. Several football contests were sponsored by The Lowell , the lucky winners of which received two dance bids each. At the sixteenth annual Central California Press Association convention held at Stanford Univer- sity, on October 2 I, the Lowell staff was represented by Phyllis Roos and Jean Cohen. Robert Rockwell and Edmund Normoyle were Lowell ' s delegates to the annual convention for high school and junior college journalists, held by the journalism students of the University of California, on November H, at the Berkeley campus. The goal of this convention is to give schools valuable advice and information which will help them solve their problems. All in all, every member of the Lowell staff should be given praise for his fine work In giving the school fve issues of such a splendid paper.

It furnishes them with a type of recreation not obtainable elsewhere. This term two students proved themselves capable of being presidents of two separate clubs — Charles Compton of the Motion Picture and Psychology Clubs, and Julius Norman of the Beginners ' Chess and Stamp Clubs. The Psychobgy Club, mentioned before, is under the direc- tion of Mr. F. Johnston. The Hi-Y Club, an organization in practically every high school in the United States, has as its theme one thought, mainly to be of service to its respective school. Mr. Dunn, with the aid of Rosemary Gantner, assumed the responsibility of teaching interested students the fundamentals of Contract Bridge. Last term, in the spring tournaments. Lowell won two out of the four championships. Mr. L. Barnes advises two clubs — Radio and Motion Picture. The students belonging to the Motion Picture Club are taught how to use the cameras and other equipment necessary to project a clear picture. The Radio Club, under President Darrell Duane, performs interesting experiments. Miss G. Mefcalf heads a club in which the students enjoy themselves while studying the habits and customs of the Spanish people. The Spanish Club president is Florence Neil. The members of this club are very active for they take many trips, attend the latest Spanish movies, and dine at Spanish restaurants. The Chemistry Club, under the guidance of Mr. Schwartz and William Beaton, president, has made trips. The students are first taught the main points of Chemistry in an interesting but educational manner and later are permitted to perform experiments. Candid camera fiends have their respective places in Lowell, too. Shigeru Yasuda, president of this club for camera enthusiasts, was aided in guiding this group by Mr. I. C. Barker. A club, recently organized, but running very smoothly, is the Junior Statesmen Club. Here the oratorically-mlnded of Lowell gather to discuss and debate the current day problems. As one would expect, Mr. G. C. Lorbeer is supervising these future leaders of America. Stoddard Knowles acts as president. Mr. Henrich conducts five clubs, besides his regular classes: each club meeting one day of the school week after school. They are the Stamp Club, under President Julius Norman; the General Science Club, under Charles Stanley; the Beginners ' Chess Club, under Julius Norman; and the Intermediate and Advanced Chess Clubs, under John Pool. New clubs have been formed too late in the term to be mentioned. All in all, those organizations have been unmistakably successful.

Polland raised the curtain on as fine a Dramatics Club season as Lowell has ever enjoyed. With many returning thespians, and a host of talented newcomers, a score of excellent plays were presented at various assemblies throughout the term. Ladies in Linen finds its setting in a women ' s Turkish bath. It concerns the efforts of Ihree women, an actress (Jean Levinson), a debutante (Patricia Niemeyer), and a reporter (Corliss MacDonald), to reunite a small town wife (Myra Buchholz) with her husband. Just Another Saturday takes place at swanky country club. It deals with the lives and intrigues of the members of the society set . Lois Longland, Claire Moody, Betty Peterson, Joan Stuart, and Barbara Voorsanger participated. Miss Sidney Carton is the story of a young girl who attempts to imitate the sacrifices of Dickens ' noble character. However, the results are exactly opposite from those befalling the real Sidney Carton. In the play were Zirel Druskin, Sonia Hayward, Barbara Krase, June Steege, Dorothy Swearingen, and Gloria Yaffee.

The results of this condi- tion lead him to the brink of a nervous breakdown. In anxiety his mother brings him to Dr. Sumner. The doctor discovers the nature of the case, assigns him to his nurse, Virginia Xelva, cuts him off from his friends, and prescribes a spartan existence as a cure for him. Believing he cannot destroy Budd ' s love for Grace, he decides he must make Grace fall in love with Budd. This he finally accomplishes, re- versing the conditions and making Grace jealous of Budd.

Sugar and Spice is the story oi a country girl, Jane Jones (Rulh Feathers), and a beautiful debutante just back from Paris, Susan (Betty Longland). Chump Edwards (Joseph Cul ' en) is quite infatuated by Jane, but the feeling is by no means mutual. Susan manages to vamp him away from Jane long enough for Jane to realize she loves him enough to win him back. Also in the play were V illlam Joslyn and June Steege. Papers takes place shortly after America has entered the World War. It is the comical story of a household in which all the members of the family receive nothing but propaganda news- papers. William Garry, Claire Moody, Patricia Niemeyer, and Betty Peterson were in the play. Mr. Polland chose the Boomerang , a hilarious comedy which was produced at Lowell with great success six years ago, for this term ' s play. Three fine performances were given, on Nov- ember 28, 29, and 30. Mr. Polland and June Steege, Dramatics Club president, are to be praised for their untiring direction. Congratulations and thanks are also extended to the Stage Com- mittee consisting of Joseph Cullen, Jack Lynch, William Majors, and Ted Pohlmann for their work in creating such excellent scenery for both the term play and the assembly plays.

Lorbeer turned out a formidable array of talkers to defend Lowell ' s forensic title. Each student signed up for debating was given two opportunities to prove his merit. The best among these were chosen to represent Lowell in her numerous league debates. Mr. Lorbeer ' s confidence In his teams was not misplaced, for in the first league debate Frank Gillio and Pearl Steiner brought home a three to nothing decision over Mission High on the subject: Resolved that the United States Government Should Own and Operate all Rail- roads. Pearl Steiner was chosen best speaker and Frank Gillio second. Government Ownership of Railroads was also the subject for the second league debate. Hans Beetz and Marian Neustadt won over Continuation hiigh by a two to one decision. Marian Neustadt was chosen best speake r, and Hans Beetz second best. In the Constitution Day pro- gram given at Lowell on September 17, many prominent debaters took part. Among these were Lester Fong, Frank Gillio, George Kitagawa, Louise Lutz, and Renate Philipsborn. Debaters taking part in the Armistice Day program, also given at Lowell, were Jerome Kilty, Seymour Meister, Frank Quinn and David Robins. Frank Gillio and Pearl Steiner were chosen to represent Lowell in the All City Speaking Contest. Two debates were held against the University of California Freshmen. One was held on Novem- ber 14, in which Hans Beetz and Marian Neustadt representing Lowell, argued on the affirma- tive side. The other debate took place on November 15, with Arthur Foff, Frank Gillio, and Pearl Steiner speaking for Lowell on the negative side. Ralph Kramer, ex-Lowell debater, was on the opposing team. The subject for both of these debates was Government Ownership of Railroads. Meeting the Le ague team from Girls ' High, Barbara McRae and Pearl Steiner argued the affirmative side of the subject of Government Ownership of Railroads. Lowell met San Francisco State College in two contests, on November 9 at Lowell, and on the 14th at the college. Frank Gillio and Pearl Steiner represented Lowell. The subject was again Government Ownership of Railroads. Other practice debates were held with Los Gatos, Oak- land, Sacred Heart, Modesto, and Sequoia. Taking part in these non-decision contests were William Brinner, Edward Conn, Harry Greenberg, Francis Hubbard, George Karonsky, Barbara Forty McRae, David Robins, and Benjamin Sawtelle. The subjects for these debates were Govern- ment Ownership of Railroads, and Resolved that the United States Government Should Ad- vocate a system of Consumers ' Cooperatives. Mr. Lorbeer will enter eight senior teams and eight junior teams in the Modesto Tournament, which will be held in Modesto on December 9. The Debating Society elected Pearl Steiner president, Ellen Shank, vice president, and Phyllis Anderson, secretary, to carry out the administrative work for the term. A great deal of praise is due Mr. Lorbeer, for the outstanding work he has done in turning out such excellent debating teams, and constantly keeping Lowell in the top brackets of the Forensic League. It is interest- ing to note that Lowell has acquired more points through championships than all the other high schools in the city combined. This is due in no small part to our debating coach, Mr. Lorbeer. The subjects for league debates are chosen almost exclusively by the National Forensic League in which the Lowell Debating Society holds membership. Lowell won the San Francisco State Tournament four out of the six times it has been held, and the San Francisco League contest thirteen out of the fifteen times it was held. Room 319 is bulging with trophies won by Lowell debaters in the past, but Mr. Lorbeer can always find room for a few more. Perhaps our collection will be increased by our coming par- ticipation in the National Forensic tournament, which will be held in Stockton tlie latter part of March. It offers contests for debaters, orators and dramatists. In the last National Forensic tournament, which was held last spring at Beverly Hills, Rosenblatt, Meister and Gillio competed. They brought home a second prize for poetry reading and figured prominently in the finals of the radio announcing event. In order to be eligible to compete in these national tournaments a student must have placed at least third in some state tournament. An average of eight hundred students, representing forty-four states, participate in each tournament. Past Lowell debaters have continued winning speaking laurels after leaving us. Many are now outstanding attorneys. Philip Verleger and Ralph Kramer, both of whom were at one time presi- dent of our debating society, are now members of the varsity debating team at California. Anyone interested in carrying on this fine work in the school is eligible for membership in the debating society. Mr. Lorbeer is constantly searching for new talent and guarantees participa- tion in at least two contests for everyone who joins the society. Thus Lowell ' s debating future will probably be as illustrious as her present and past. Debating Society Fourth Row — Sawtelle. Gillio. Quinn. Thomson. Conn, Kilty, Cchen. Cook. Brizee.

William Garry, the club ' s leader, carried on the excellent work of previous presidents. The group which best displays the talent of the Boys ' Glee is the Double Quartet, which this term was composed of first tenors, Ralph Buchan and Tokushi Mikami; second tenors, Edward Bragg aid Robert Lynch; baritones, Raymond Blanch and Jerome Kilty; bassos, George Backman and Paul Kohler. This fine group of eight is noted for its renditions of lighter and more popular songs but it can perform equally well with its more serious selections. The boys receive considerable recognition for their single quartet singing. Each member of the club receives his share of experience in either of these groups, as all the boys are allowed to take part on different occasions. Another phase of Glee Club work is solo singing, and anyone talented in this line is encouraged to do so, whenever the opportunity presents. The entire Glee Club is widely known for its interpretations of negro spirituals; however, the songs they sang, and the manner in which they interpreted them were always appreciated by audiences. Another specialty of the entire club is A Cappella singing, or singing without accompaniment. The Boys ' Glee has sung at the Exposition twice before large audiences, and it gave stellar perform- ances both times. Other programs in which they participated were: numerous Block L Rallies, and the Parent Teacher ' s Association meetings. The conclusion of an outstanding term was reached when the Glee Club participated in the Commencement exercises. Their presence on the graduation stage is always largely awaited, and much enjoyed by all listeners.

Alexander, again has proven itself worthy of the praise given it ever since its origin. The officers for the term were president. Pearl Steiner: vice president, Sonia hiayward; and sec- retary, Jeanne Radanovich. The entire Glee Club, clothed in red and white gowns, effectively entertained at the Constitution Day Program. This well organized group will keep their age-old tradition of ending the semester by singing at the Commencement exercises, usually held in the War Memorial Opera hfouse. The Triple Trio, composed of our future prima donnas, included such veterans as Shirley Foster, first soprano; Sonia Hayward, Lorraine Thomas, and Gloria Yaffee, second sopranos; and Pearl Steiner, alto. New members were Shirley Button and Jean Henderson, sopranos; Edna Lagorio and Lillian Morgan, altos. This colorful trio sang national songs for the Costa Rican Program at the Keith Theatre in the California Building at Treasure Island on October twenty-fifth. A great part of the success of this club has been due to the willing cooperation and talent of the accompanist, Shirley Rouse. Students within hearing distance of the auditorium during the fifth period are unusually entertained by the echoes of the singing group at practice every day of the school week. The girls, while learning the fundamentals of voice and harmony, enjoy them- selves. Their songs range from classical to modern songs. The Girls ' Glee is usually composed mostly of up er classman girls. But lately it has been surpris- ing to note the increasing number of freshman and sophomore girls graduating from the Ele- mentary and Intermediate groups and permitted to join this organization.

PREP USICIANS Under fhe capable guidance of Lowell ' s musical director, Mr. Madison Devlin, the Lowell Con- cert Orchestra has contributed much to make this term more enjoyable. This Orchestra is one of the finest in the city. There were over forty-six fine musicians in the organization led by Claire Wilkens as Concert Mistress. The group performed at many occasions such as the P.T.A. Meeting where it played the ever popular Showboat and Persian Market : at the term play, The Boomerang : and, of course, at the Commencement exercises. This Orchestra loses several seniors by graduation. However, their places will be filled by students from the Intermediate Orchestra. These instrumental classes never fail to add new names to the list every year. The Dance Orchestra has attained great success this term. This popular organization, composed of twelve ambitious players, and under the leadership of Jack Rubke, rendered the latest song hits of the day at the L3, H3 and L4 class dances, occasions that long will be remembered. The success of the term ' s instrumental music was not only due to all the players themselves, but also to Mr. Madison Devlin and his untiring efforts to make Lowell ' s orchestras the finest. Mr. Devlin, in addition to training and guiding the Advanced Orchestra earnestly directed the Inter- mediate Orchestra, Elementary Band, Dance Orchestra, and R.O.T.C. Band. Lowell ' s splendid school band, arrayed in its snappy bright red and white uniforms, is one of the finest that has ever been organized. This group, under the leadarship of Jack Rubke, has done much through its wholehearted efforts to put pep into rallies and football games. The R.O.T.C. Band, composed largely of members of the school Band, also pro ed a credit to Lowell. Acclaimed as one of the best in San Francisco, this unit deserves our notice. Day after day, it has drilled and practiced, slowly but surely rounding into shape, a band of capable military musicians. The R.O.T.C. Band was very ably led by Jack Rubke, band leader, and Roy Harding, drum major. We should be very proud to have such a fine music department in the school.

G R I G H A P S A team that would end down near the celler, a team that didn ' t have anything, showed the experts that they don ' t know Lowell fight. Losing all on the first two teams except Honnert and Joslyn, the new gems kept winning against overwhelming odds, and finally defeated Balboa to crash the championship gates. Because the squad started from scratch the early practice games weren ' t so successful, as they lost to Pittsburg, San Rafael and Richmond 18-6, 12-6. 12-0 consecutively, but defeated P.A.L. champs Burlingame 7-0. The games gave good experience for the league encounters, and showed that ends Council and Neher were about the scrappiest in the league. Capt. Stephensen, much underrated, constantly made important stops; hlupka, at the other tackle, couldn ' t be moved, and Dotur, Sophomore, showed a great future. Guards Wiedenhofer, Rhodes, McGinn and Beaver were rough and tough and couldn ' t be kept out of opposing backfields. Capt. Joslyn, center, helped Honnert back up the line and make beautiful tackles. In the backfield the brilliant runs of Cerf, Honnert and Garcia thrilled, but often were made possible by the sharp blocking of quarterback O ' Brien. Seniors Milton and MacKinnon pounded for huge gains, while Ross outsmarted opposing quarterbacks.

A fighting Indian team got off to a good start, when it defeateo a strong Bulldog machine on Friday, Sept. 15. Although the Commerce eleven tore through the Lowell forward wall easily, when the Red Shirts were backed against their goal they held stubbornly. Lowell ' s first tally came in the second quarter when Honnert, swivel-hipped his way 65 yards to a touchdown. Milton retrieved the ball in midair after MacPhail ' s fumble, and ran unmolested to pay-dirt to account for another six points. Commerce fumbled on Lowell ' s 12 in the first quarter, after one of its drives. Ross playing fine defensive ball, recovered, but Neher ' s kick out of bounds was blocked for 2 points. LOWELL 28-SACRED HEART 0. A polished Lowell eleven took the field, Thurs., Oct. 12 to soundly thrash Sacred Heart. Every possible score was made by the rejuvenated Gems . Immediately after Lowell took the ball, Garcia and Honnert alternated in carrying to the one, where Garcia scored. Joslyn converted. In the second period, after a concentrated drive, Cerf went around end 1 yds. to score. Joslyn again converted. It was Joslyn who made the third tally with a field goal from the six. Duggan of Sacred Heart, chasing a high center 20 yds., gave Lowell a safety. Again the Indian powerhouse moved 45 yds. in 5 plays to send Russell over. Cerf converted. The last digits came when Russell blocked a kick for an automatic safety. Every man on the squad saw action in this game. LOWELL 33-WASHINGTON 6. With a gleam in their eye that spelled doom for any opponent, the Red machine rolled up and down the Kezar turf on Wednesday, October 19 to avenge last year ' s defeat. The first touchdown was born immediately after the kickoff, when the Indians, with Garcia, Honnert and Cerf alternating, carried the ball 56 yards to the 2 yard line, where Honnert smashed over left tackle to score. Cerf, in a 23 yard thriller, early in the second period, put the ball into position for Milton to pound over guard from the three. Cerf drop-kicked the extra point. Honnert, in the 3rd quarter, beautifully running a broken field for 62 yards, scored after Garcia ' s pass to him on the old deadman play. Joslyn converted. Again, in this quarter, Honnert ' s 20 yard march put Garcia in scoring position from the one. Joslyn inter- cepted a pass on the Eagle 25, and four plays later Cerf cir- cled right end to score after a I 3 yard run. Orchids to ends Council and Neher on their beautiful defensive work and downfleld blocking. FLASHI — Lowell first prep team since 1936 to go through a season undefeated and untied. Honnert takes oil time city high scoring record. Forty-eight LOWELL 25-GALILEO 0. King Leo, the Galileo lion, was knocked from his title throne by a vengeful Indian on Tues- day, Oct. 24. Gaining a total of 228 yards from scrimmage to Galileo ' s 35, and making I I first downs to 2, the Indians completely routed Galileo in a flurry of touchdowns. In the second quarter Cerf kicked to the Galileo 19: the Galilaen fumble was recovered by Joslyn. O ' Brien, Garcia and Honnert carried the pigskin to the 7. Then Galileo was penalized, and on a 4th down hlonnert smashed tackle to go over. Cerf re- turned a kick in the fourth quarter to the 23. Honnert cracked guard, carrying three lion players with him, shaking them off, c nd finally carrying the safety over. Cerf drop-kicked the extra point. Cerf intercepted a pass and ran 61 yards down the sidelines, in front of beautiful block- ng by Council, to score. The final minutes netted another score when Dotur blocked a Lion ount on the 15. Honnert tallied after three tries. Special mention should be given to Tackle Hupka and Guards Rhodes and Wledenhofer on their sharp tackling and defense of the center of the Lowell line. LOWELL 3-BALBOA 2. Superior fight and brains proved the way for Lowell ' s lusty-lunged to win their crucial game on Saturday, Oct. 28. The superior fight came when the Indians held twice on the three, once in the first quarter and again in the fourth. The brains showed when the Red shirts were deep in their territory, Garcia fell on the ball to give Balboa two points and Lowell a chance to kick out of danger. Capt. Joslyn just about won his own game, when after a hard drive, he booted the pigskin, from the 30, squarely between the uprights for our score. The drive was started by Honnert, in the second quarter when he smashed guard for seven yards in two plays. Cerf then passed to Neher who lateraled to Council who continued to the Buc ' s 22. A penalty brought the ball back to the 41. Honnert then went for seven and four- teen yards, and passed to Cerf for 13. A penalty brought the ball back to the 21, where the longest field goal in the history of the preps was made. Garcia took a low, wide pass from center and put it into position for Capt. Bill. To tackle Stephenson, goes a lot of credit for bringing down Balboa men in the tight places. Praise is also due guard Beaver for his knifing tackles.

The Red and White aggre- gation pushed aside another obstacle on its road to the championship when it conquered the fighting Wildcats on the Kezar battlefield, Wednesday, Nov. 15. The Indians kicked off to the Ignatlans. Then after the Wildcats lost the ball via four downs, Lowell moved 44 yards to send Honnert scoring from the two. Cerf, Garcia and Honnert did the distance in eleven plays. Then the Hayes Street boys proceeded to ram- ble again, but two penalties forced them back to their own 20, where Joslyn attempted a field goal on fourth. It was blocked and set St. Ignatius into position to score early in the second quarter. Late in the first half the Indians missed paydirt by Inches after a continued drive. The powerful Indians made their winning score right after the klckoff In the second half. O ' Brien, Cerf, Garcia, and Honnert brought the pigskin from the Lowell 35 to the Ignatlan 20, where Garcia faded back to pass to Honnert in the end zone, scoring. LOWELL-MISSION. Due to President Roosevelt ' s announcement, moving Thanksgiving ahead a week, the Lowell-Poly game was played on November 23, and the Mission game scheduled for November 22, was played on December 2 after this journal went to press. So the results could not be published. A stronger backfleld and a line equal to the Bears ' , plus a more pol- ished ball club should have accounted for a Lowell victory. Flash! — Cards win, 14-0. LOWELL 12-POLYTECHNIC 0. It was a parrot meal which preluded the turkey dinner, on Thanksgiving day at Kezar November 23, for the Lowell Indians in their annual big game . And this meal clinched the first A. A. A. title for Lowell in I I years. From the opening kick- off to the final gun the Hayes Street lads were In complete control of the game. Sparked by honorary Capt. Jim Honnert, the Red and White first started to roll In the first quarter when stalwart Neher recovered a fumble on the Parrot 42. Garcia, playing t he best game of his high school career, went for 12 yards. Honnert for four. And then Joslyn, who did the finest piece of defensive work on the field, called for a pass from place kick formation, which was completed to Honnert for a first down. Garcia and Honnert then drove to the one, and the gun went off. The first play of the second quarter Honnert hit guard to score. Cerf, punting in sensational collegian form, quick kicked to Poly ' s 16 during the third period, where a fumble recovered by Busy Beaver, a standout lineman, put the Injuns In scoring position. Honnert, Garcia, and Cerf brought the ball to the two just as the quarter ended. Honnert tallied on the first play of the last quarter. The Lowell line outcharged and outplayed a supposedly superior Poly line to give themselves the needed edge.

As in the past, a large num- ber of ball players showed future vars ity prowess. Promising Junior athletes are linemen, Bimrose, Eighorn, hiartman. Hetzer, Hitchcock, Kepon, and Varellas; and backfield men, Jim Montrose, Phil O ' Neill and Norm Willback; sophomores, futures are ends. Jack Hoist, Bill Irwin, Bob Linda, and Frank Wigmore: tackles, Don DeVoto, Jack Habermayer, Henry Morris, and Warren Swan- sons: guards. Curt Coffman, Ira Thomson, and Tom Strei; centers, Dave Berwick and Howard Hill and back, August Angeli, Charlie Cook, Blaine Gardner, Dan Miller, and Bob Thompson. Valuable experience was gained in a practice saason of games. September 25, in this, their first tilt with Tamalpais, the boys were stopped on the short end of a 6- 1 2 score because of inexperi- ence. The opposition scored once on a long end-around play, and later on a beautiful long pass, converting neither touchdown. The Goofs returned with a new touchdown drive on straiglit football, Dan Miller punching it over from the one. Outstanding were Jack Hoist, Jack Irvine, and Dan Miller. September 28 — In a hard battle with Commerce, the Goofs were set back 0-14; Commerce scoring on a long break-away run, and later on a long pass, converting both touchdowns. The best players In this game were Coffman, DeVoto, Gardner, Morris and Thompson. October 5 — A great change took place In this game with the St. Ignatius Wildcats as the Indians downed the foe 13-0. Our first score was on a pass from Bimrose to O ' Neill, the second on an end run by O ' Neill. Other stars of this game were Berwick, Montrose, and Will- back. October 13 — Here again the Goofs loosed an offensive attack downing the Irish of Sacred Heart 12-6. In this game Sacred Heart scored on an intercepted pass, but the Indians returned on straight football, with August Angeli packing the ball. Other good players here were Holman, Irwin, Swanson, and Thompson. October 20 — For the first time in many years the lightweights won three consecutive games, this time against Washington 12-0. The first score came on a dead-man play to Gardner and the second on a line plunge by Montrose. October 27 — In their game with Galileo the boys were bewildered by passes and razzle-dazzle football, being down 0- 1 4. Stars of this game were Strei, Lind, Simmons, and Wigmore. November 3 — Here the boys met an equally strong team where they tied 6-6 against Mission. Starring in this game were Angeli, DeForde. Gardner and Miller. November 10 — Closing their season against Balboa the Goofs were downed 0-7. Starring in this game were Wigmore and DeVoto.

The winning team for Clfiss AA was composed of Cliff Wakefield, Vaskin Tashin, Lawrence Fried; for Class A, Maurice Cohn, Art Schumacher, James Shepard; for Class B, Joe Nussbaum, Ken Schussel, Jack Whit- sett; and for Class C, Eric Bodenhelmer, Victor Boiseree, Henry Fukuli. The perpetual pentathlon cup was won by George Canfield. In the track meet with San Mateo, Gene Clark won the mile in the fast time of 4:40 which is exactly six seconds off the city record. With a little more experience, Coach Harris expects Clark to break the city record. ■ oia Filly. two lUU Tl fcj uu. Water Polo Second Row — Chandler. Backman, Ericsson, Lowe, Delano. First Row — Gilkey, Belkln, Keller, Heyman, Beanston. Bolster DUG E R S Water Polo, Inaugurated by the Lowell water churners, made Its first Lowell appearance this term. This new sport was established and kept going due mainly to the efforts of Jack Gilkey and Al Heyman, who worked hard to start a water polo league In this city. Commerce and Palo Alto are the only teams that have met Lowell at the time this journal goes to press, although Lowell still has on Its schedule games with St. Ignatius and Sequoia, and return games with Commerce and Palo Alto. In their first game the Lowell duckers easily submerged Commerce by a score of 10 to 2. The only outstanding player In this game was Al hieyman, who scored 4 points. Forwards were Don Beanston, Al hieyman, and Allan Keller. The guards were Captain Jack Gilkey, Jim Chandler and Herb Lowe. Nick Belkln was goalie, while Phil DeLano, Gene Bolster, George Backman, and Ward Ericsson were the able substitutes. For their next game at Palo Alto the fighting Lowell team played without the services of Al Heyman, Jim Chandler, or Gene Bolster. Despite this lose, the team held a 4 to 3 lead at half time. Tiring rapidly, and showing the need of experienced substitutes, the Cards lost a close game, 8 to 5. Although losing, Lowell showed fine teamwork, the lack of practice being the deciding factor In the game. Jack Gilkey was high point man this time. He garnered 3 of the 5 points. Don Beanston suc- ceeded in getting the sprint almost every time, helping the Lowell offense and hindering that of Palo Alto. Phil DeLano showed great promise in filling the forward position temporarily va- cated by Al Heyman. Allan Keller, captain for the day, was at his best on defense. He took the ball away from his man every time, while on offense, he greatly contributed to the Lowell score. Herb Lowe and Ward Ericsson were steady guards. Nick Belkln was the goalie, with George Backman a reserve. These two boys were about equal, each doing very well for his first year. Lowell had a faster team than any of Its opponents, five of the men being among the fastest in the city. Don Beanston, Gene Bolster, Phil DeLano, Jack Gilkey, and Allan Keller. Active support toward a water polo f league was given by Commerce and St. Ignatius, who organ- ized teams while several other schools promised to consider this sport. Although these teams were not enough for a league, consideration will be given to the water polo ques- tion next year by the A. A.

COACH BEN NEFF Builder of Champions 120 L OOPSTERS The Cardinal 120 lb. hoopsters turned In a successful but not a championship season. Handed defeats at the hands of Balboa, Poly, George Washington, the Red and Whites stood in second place in the final outcome. The starting men were Hagerty and Lew, forwards, Talciguchi and Yip, guards: and Coleman and Lum, alternating at center. Lew, last year ' s I lO ' s high scorer, repeated his act this year and led the league in points scored. Hagerty, another veteran, and Coleman, a newcomer, were extremely valuable for their steady defensive and scoring ability. The team possessed speed in Lum, Masterson, Yip, and Talciguchi which they used to their ad- vantage on fast breaks and screen plays. The 20 ' s used the usual man to man defense and were quite hard to score on but they were not able to hold off such teams as Poly, Balboa and George Washington. Occasionally our team met a zone defense which, if played smartly, is the better. In spite of their defeats, the players should be given credit for keeping up their spirit and win- ning games for Lowell if it were possible to do it. Substitutes on the squad were Lok, Masterson, Moriarty, and McPherson. 110 Basketball Top Row — Odenthal, Lipton, Chinn Fukui. Second Row — Tanabs, White- sides, Kudelka, Gilpin.

Although not the best lO ' s team Lowell has had, it was a team with enough spirit to take the city title. The Indian squad of 1939 was somewhat different in its style of play than previous quintets. Instead of a straight man to man, the team used a very effective zone defense and also a fast break, send- ing Gilpin and Kudelka down the court upon recovery of the ball in place of the slow but sure style. This made Kudelka one of the high scorers of the league. The five starting men were Gilpin and Kudelka forwards, Chinn, center and Sanford and Whitesides, guards, with Raeder, a valuable sixth man. The remainder of the squad was composed of Fukui, Lipton, Oden- thal, and Tanabe. The Cards displayed a varied type of offense, being able to defeat any type of defense they met. The fact that Lowell teams are drilled on fundamentals and plays is one reason that the mechanical Cards are always on top of the basketball loops. Jl i J Soccer Hcwjrd Hall.

SHI I C K E R S With undaunted hopes In their hearts the Lowell shin-kickers began the 1939 season in quest of the channpionship, only to fall to the lower bracket of the league. Starting the season in a non- league battle against a rentlentless Pescadero squad, the Indians captured a close victory, one to nothing. Bob Brown made the tally late in the fourth quarter. Making their league debut, October 3, the Papooses, suffered their first league defeat at the hands of the Galileo Lions, one to nothing. This ganne was a heart-breaker to lose since the Lions tallied late in the fourth quar- ter climaxing a desperate last power drive. Meeting Polytechnic next on the schedule in their traditional game, the Indians fought hard to tie an irresistible, well coached squad. The fact that The Parrots scored first aroused the Indians ' temper, which thus accounted for the well- placed tally late in the second quarter, by wing-man Ed McNamara. Lady Luck was against the Indians when they took the field against the Balboa Buccaneers, losing by a scant one goal. The Indians had, surprisingly enough, resisted the Pirate attack for three quarters, when the Balboa wing-man powered his kick over the white line for the winning and paying point. However, though defeated, the Indians gained much needed unity and coopera- tion among the players. In their next and closest game of the season, the Indians outwitted and outplayed a strong Commerce team, only to be rewarded by a one to one tie. The Bulldogs really fought like Bulldogs to try and grip the game. This encounter showed the spirit and fight the Lowell team possessed, and also established a cooperative equally balanced squad. From this game Coach Harris determined his first team which consisted of forewards: Jake Battat, Stuart Smith and Alex Vladimiroff; Wings: Ed McNamara and Oak Chinn: Halfbacks: James Moore, William Hunter and Captain Howard Hall: Fullbacks: Robert Brown and Henry Peters; and last, but not by any chance least, goal guard Robert Friend. Led by forwards Jake Battat and Alex Vladimiroff this team overpowered and defeated Washington, and thus suc- ceeded in winning their first triple contest, two to one. Both Indian scores came in the first quar- ter, the result of two drives. The last game with Mission was called off as a just remembrance to the memory of the late Coach Kitchen. Although out of the race, Coach Harris expects that Lowell will be a tough team to down in next year ' s championship contest. Varsity Soccer Fourth Row — Smith, Tonne- len, Ketler, Muller.

SHIN-KIGKERS Starting the 1939 season with one of the best pronnising 120 pound soccer teams that Lowell has seen in many a moon, the Indians soon dropped to the bottom in league standing. The Indians ' first opponent was Galileo, hlowever, the Galileo coach was unable to put a full team on the field and thus Lowell took the game on a forfeit. Showing signs of being a strong threat in the championship race, Lowell ' s hopes were shattered when they lost to Polytechnic five to nothing. The Indians outweighed and inexperienced, were no match for the strong Poly team who found it quite easy to break through the Lowell defense. In their next game the Indians, fighting to avenge their defeat at the claws of the Parrot, played far over their heads to tie a tough Pirate squad. This game, exciting from the first minute to the last, proved to be one of the hardest struggles in A. A. A. history. The Papooses, in bad need of a victory, tried their best to break the Balboa defense, but were forced back by the team that was determined not to mar their good record. This game enabled Coach hHarris to choose his first string: Captain George Paulo, left inside: Bob Peterson, right inside; Charlie Meese, center forward; right wing. Bob Zapanta: left wing. Norm Schlamm; right halfback, George Goto: left halfback, Bert Miller; center halfback. Ken Heinlein; left fullback, Paul Selchau; right fullback, John Hardgraves; and goal guard, Clyde Birch. Next to encounter the Indians were the Commerce Bulldogs. The Lowell team, made up wholly of freshmen and sophomores, was no match for the experienced Bulldogs who have won soccer championships as far back as they can remembsr. Time after time the Commerce forward wall broke through the Lowell secondary, firing consistently at the Indian goal. At the finish. Com- merce had one more league victory toward the championship through this five to nothing win at the expense of the Indians. The next scheduled game was with Washington, but, like Galileo, Lowell received another vic- tory by forfeiture. The last game for the one twenties was scheduled with one of the strongest contenders for the championship — the Mission Bears. However, this game was called off as a small tribute to the memory of the late Coach Claude Kitchen. Although it is rather early to predict. Coach hiarris is certain that next year ' s team will be second to none in the 1940 cham- pionship race. Much is to be expected from the sophomores on this year ' s team who next season will be experienced and weathered for strong league competition. v 120 Soccer Third Row — Selchau.

SPORTS ADMINISTRATORS The boys ' sports deparfment felt even more keenly because more personally than the rest of the school the death of Mr. Claude L. Kitchen in November. Having practically retired from the field of active coaching to heed the warnings of a weakening heart, he devoted his time, loyalty and experience to the administrative work of the department. This sports season Lowell broke a long established precedent by not choosing an athletic manager. The general staff ably took on its added duties. The task of adding and checking all Block L points was left to the capa- ble awards committee, consisting of Clerk of Awards, Skiles Hoffman, Edward Ellis and Jack Woodfleld. Hard working boys are the sports managers. For varsity football there was head manager Patterson Allen, and his assistants Robert Hinman, Donald Kranich, and Duane Tweedale; for lightweight football there was Walter Horlyck, John McCue and Herbert Salinger; Kenneth Berven, Roy Cauwet, Richard Garcia. Con Glafkides, Stanley Gulliber, and Pierre Salinger for lightweight basketball; Robert Kessler for soccer and Bill Manning for fall track. The G.A.A. had a large following, under the leadership of President, Bobby Harter; Secretary, Grace Nell, and Clerk of Awards, Carol Christian. A play day was held with Poly and George Washington at which all three schools held competition in basketball, baseball, badminton, and ping pong. The G.A.A. will have its annual luncheon near the end of the term. A clean-up com- mittee was organized by the Girls ' Block L in a drive to keep the yards clean at lunch time. Anita Larsen was the president; Miss Aileen Norton, the faculty advisor. The services of the boys ' Block L was enlisted. The girls ended their activities with a dance.

Forty-eight girls, ■ylider the direction of Miss Aileen Norton, played badminton in the girls ' gym. The number was limited in order to enable them to learn easier and have more room for practice. Ramona Vin- cent was manager, with Elena Thomas and Lorraine Schwerln assisting. Elimination and ladder tournaments closed the term. The riding groups ended the term with their annual horse show managed by Jean Colien and assisted by Betty Fitzgerald and Jean Sherriffs; Miss Wilson was faculty advisor. The Park courts were kept busy by the tennis groups. The manager was Barbara Krase; assistants, June Crook, and Betty Thompson; the faculty advisor, Miss Adams. Elimination tournaments were held. Every Wednesday twenty-five girls took their hockey stick and ventured forth to the Park with Miss Adams, Velma Fowler, manager; Virginia Goldsworthy, Christina Reid, and Shirley Rouse, assistants. They joined in v ith the Northern California Field Hockey Association and were invited to two play days. Anne Kilcourse, manager, and Miss Flynn, fac- ulty advisor, led enthusiastic groups to the Lincoln gol. ' links. The beginners learned how to play with the Intermediates. The advanced had a continuous tournament with an elimination tourna- ment to finish the term. Gloria Essmann, manager, Alice Beeker, Janet Lewis, and Mrs. Snifh, faculty advisor, managed 125 girls in volley ball this term. They held an elimination tournament consisting of 8 class teams. At the end of the tarm, awards were given to the girls who partici- pated in at least one of these sports. I 1 i My, Golfers fourth Row — Gdlvin. Tracy, Kt sen berg, Weigel, Mengol. Weisbaum.

SALUDO DEL DIRECTOR [PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE] ' Recorded thought is our cliief heritajie from the past, the most histinji lei;acy we can leave to tlie future. Books are the most enduring; monument of man ' s achievements. Only through books can civilization become cumulative. These lines are carved on the facade of the Public Library in St. Louis. With the many interests and activities of our crowded days have we, the students of San Francisco ' s academic high school, really learned to read? e are justly proud of our scholastic, as well as our athletic achie ements, but have we ever experienced the true delight, the deep joy, that comes with the reading of a good book? Latin-America is the theme of our Red and White. Let us. therefore, take time to read books about the lands that lie south of us, and. through reading, learn something of their history, their culture, and their way of life: something of Cuba by reading Melamie Rei- ser ' s God Returns to the Vuelta Abajo, ' ' of Guatemala from Louis Adamics The House in Antigua, of South America from Peter Fleming ' s Brazilian Adventure. Above all, let us learn to read I Leroy H. Stephens, Principal.

Costa Rica, Cuba, San Domingo, Ecuador, Guate- mala, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Salvador, Uruguay. enezuela, and the United States. e visit lands of good neighborli- ness and friendship in the Western Hemisjjhere wliere peace reigns — lands alike in their love of liberty, jus- tice and peace, and their respect for law and order. These are the princijjles of Pan-Americanism. Our American eagle luiites the emblems of her sister gov- ernments to symbolize the amity of peace-loving republics. The guardian of Pan-Americanism, the Monroe Doctrine, withdrew the estern Hemisphere from the field of European activities to a new and great destiny of their own. This historic document, a simple declaration of Ameri- can policy, insures the dignity and territorial integrity of the new world. From this new conce|)tion developed Pan-Americanism. Under the leadership of Simon Bolivar, tiie great South American Liberator, the first Pan-American Congress was held in 1826 in Panama. The headquarters of this permanent union are now established in ashington, D. C, a magnificent struc- ture, maintained at the joint expense of all the Republics. Thus — Soutlnvard to tlie lands of Latin- America and peace. Our mechanical drawing classes became so popular that a new and good man was needed to help. Mr. Lindborg (ills the bill.

I ' be filorious temples, exquisitely sculptured without the use of metallic tools, rej)resent a perfection in architecture and art forms which have never been surpassed. Mitihty mountains surroundinf; these museums of re- liflious art lend mystery and fjrandeur to the fantastic structures and ruins — the {greatest wonders of the Americas. Practically each church has its distinctive note, its own strikinj; examj)le of Spanish Renaissance architecture. In their lofty interiors the passing drama of most of their history is intricately carved. The church, an important element in ancient and modern Latin life, has been the teacher of all classes of society. None has more willinfily responded to its teachinfis for spiritual fiuidance than the simple peasant. Even today in modem Latin America the regulation of schools is in the hands of the church. But education has changed from the idea of pure culture to a com- bination of cultural and technical training. Ambitions, previously hidden are now brought to light to develop a more intelligent and l)road-minded race whose appreciation of art, education and good manners is at present noteworthv. ,%f «J , ■ ' ' ' -= -i,isi i .

They are greeted l)y cordial seniors who show them the lahoratories. the study rooms, the gymnasium, and the R. (). T. (]. Armory. They are confused by the perplexing room numbers, the clanging of lockers, and the ease with which the upperclassmen get to tlieir rooms — with only one minute to s])are. These freshmen search vainly for the mar])le-walled swimming pool on the fifth floor, of which cer- tain worthy sophomores have told them. At rallies and at the Freshman Reception thev become aware of that intangible something now known to us as Lowell Spirit, and soon join wholeheartedly in our school yells. Unused to the new de- mands wliicli high school makes on them, they look with awe u])on the lofty u])perclassmen and wish that they also could walk an l talk with such assurance. Through tlie kind aid of Mr. Stephens, the vice-princi|)als, and tlie faculty, these bewildered freshmen soon acquire a new outlook on their four future years in Iiigh school. By 1937, these timid freshmen become self-reliant so|)homores and are joined by graduates of various junior high schools, completing the class of June 1940. They are no longer the frightened freshmen who ran from class to class: now they have changed to the seasoned sophomores who think that they know and can do every- thing. Throughout the new term, they aj)proach tlieir studies witli increased con- fidence. Their interest in tlie activities that Lowell offers increases. They become eager club members. Those who are working for the coveted Block L pull hard for crew, sweat on the gridiron, run fast in track meets, try for new records in swim- ming, and spend ceaseless hours in practice for Ijasketball games. 1938 looks upon dignified juniors with the responsibility of self-government, witli a new-found independence. They are no longer re(|uire(l to take algebra or geome- try; they can choose their subjects with a freedom that was not theirs before. They learn the thrill of electing their own officers and arranging for their first dance, which is entitled Boy Meets Girl. Some are honored by election to the Scroll and L or Shield and L. Otiiers, due to tlieir efforts in tlie |)revious year, are given permission to wear the Block L; and many are rewarded for the hours spent in study by iiiembership in the ( ' .ajiforiiia Scholarship Federation. Debaters win honors by discussion of such timely issues as .lapan ' s in asion of Ciiina or the adoption of a system of socialized medicine in the United States. Those who have talent for dramatics are seen in The ' arieties of 193 S and Stop Thief. Those who are journalistically inclined write for The Lowell and The Red and U I Wliite. Tlieir soliool work changes in character and becomes more serious and purjioseful; laboratory experiments are undertaken and gravely discussed. By 1939, those bewildered freshmen have developed into the young men and women you see before you. They no longer look up to the fourth year students; they, themselves, are now seniors — expected to lead the school by assuming responsibilities, and by force of example. The new lower classmen now look to them for the proper interpretation of Lowell sj)irit. These seniors realize that there is more to learn in this world than they thought in 1937. The Golden Gate International Exposition has opened. The glee clubs, the orchestra, the band, and the Pacific Relations group represent Lowell in the many diversified programs that are given there. The seniors now head the Student Body, the Shield and L, the Scroll and L; they have become the commissioned officers in the R. O. T. C. Battalion. In the midst of their high-senior term, these seniors suddenly realize that graduation is near, for senior dues are collected, photographs are taken, and preparations are made for the coniniencement exercises. They take their last examinations; they hand in their books. For a few hours, their joy is unbounded at the thought that their responsibilities are over, their worries are gone. But then a change is noticed. They have begun to realize that new fields are ahead, that greater responsibilities are theirs. Then comes a strange pang of sadness. These seniors must leave their school of four years and go out into the world to meet graver problems, to strive for greater things. Those frightened Freshmen of ' 36; Those seasoned Sophomores of ' 37; Those jubilant Juniors of ' 38; Those sophisticated Seniors of ' 39: are the Lowell Class of June 1940. As the years pass, may this Class of June 40, be recorded in the history of man- kind as contributing something to make this world a better place in which to live. The last thrill of high school days — The Senior Ball. Mr. Stephens, Mr. and Mrs. Monroe, some of the faculty join with graduates at The Fairmont and don formal dress. 35 L4 ROOM REPS.

ACTIVIDADES [ACTIVITIES] Happy, carefree, peace-loving races predominate in the Pan-American countries. The native races of the south- ern repubhcs are always intriguing, especially when tliey gather in market places with their curious array of wares. The gracious hospitality of these merchants gives added charm. At the discovery of South America by the Europeans, the aboriginals had already devel- oped the art of spinning, weaving and manufacture of pottery, some forms of metallurgy, sculpture, archi- tecture, and agriculture. This ancient art of pottery- making still exists for pottery salesmen can still be seen roaming from market to market, village to village, showing their interesting wares. The richly colored decorations on the pottery, limited in range, are us- ually patterned after the ancient Inca ware which is geometrical in design. The fur salesman, another com- mon and picturesque figure about the market place, always carries with him a live animal of the same fur he is selling. These gay races, have gained interna- tional fame for their fascinating fiestas, usually held in honor of some saint. Lovely dark - eyed ladies, dressed in beautifid native costumes, gorgeously em- broidered, gracefully dance alone or with mysterious men whose faces are all but hidden by their wide som- breros. The market place is the heart of the village; its narrow, cobblestone streets are laid level with the charming adobe houses of low red tile roofs. Many such towns are scattered throughout the southern continent. ■■1 ••-v .1 - jctT.-  ' . t. f 3 ' Q 3 W J ' r4 i r f i a ( a Robert Arnold Robert Curley Edmund Normoyle Donald Beanston Joseph Cullen Carl Raaka Frederick Beaver Howard Dallmar Caxton Rhodes Donald Brush William Garry William Ross P.

The coaching comm ittee, a group of C. S. F.Vrs who coach students who are defi- cient in any particular course, was made up of Gloria Meyer, Harry Buttimer, Jeanette Olander, Gerda Meyer, Harold Davis, Gwendolyn Miller. Rose Marie Gantner, Kataro Murai, and Vera Kreekis. Due to the efforts of this committee, many students have been able to make outstanding improvements in courses which formerly gave them much difficulty. Events scheduled for this term were a Tea and Dance held on March 31, a con- vention in Palo Alto on April 6, an imposing Pan-American Day program at Lowell on April 15, a convention at St. Mary ' s College on April 20, and completing the term ' s activities, the C. S. F. dance on June 7. This is the first time the C. S. F. has been able to hold a dance in the spring term. Mr. Stepliens gave his consent to this in view of the fine work the coach ing committee has done. Members of the dance committee are Patsy Alexander, Jerry Applegarth. Harry Buttimer, Betty Klinker, Rudolph Kuhn, Gloria Meyer, Betty Rosenblatt, Naomi Shain. and Norma Stein. Approximately twenty students qualified for life membership in the C. S. F. this term. To be a life mendier of the C. S. F. a student must have been in the society two-thirds of the time he has been in Lowell: one of these terms must be in the senior year. 49 LOS GRUPOS [CROUPS] MR.

The term started out successfully, when, on February 23, John Harvey and Louise Lutz won the San Joaquin Valley Debating Tournament in the junior division, at Ripon. The senior team finalists were Pearl Steiner and Barbara McRae: Shirley Zelechower and Hans Beetz; Caroline Nahman and Charles Colien: Seymour Meister and Jerome Kilty. The topic discussed was Government Ownership of the Railroads. The debating organization gave the school a splendid dramatic declamation on March 13 with Frances Harrison, Jerome Kilty, Betty Longland, Lois Longland, Frank Quinn, and Fllen Shank taking part. On March 19. Jerome Kilty was declared winner over all San Francisco contestants in the Lions ' Oratorical contest on the subject Over Here and Over There. On March 21 he won from all the high schools of five peninsula towns. Seymour Meister was unan imously awarded first place in the California Bankers ' Oratori- cal Contest held March 28. David Robins was awarded second place. The Fresno State Tournament was held March 30 at Fresno. Two teams entered in the jimior division and nine teams in the senior. Pearl Steiner took first place and John Har- vey second in the extempore contest. The League debates began April 3 against George Washington on the subject of The Embargo Against Japan. The affirmative team of Jerome Kilty and Seymour Meister tied with Washington: David Robins and George Karonsky, tiie negative team, lost. In the semi-annual Public Speaking Tournament held April 5 and 6, Lowell won eight out of nine possible trophies. Over twenty schools were represented at San Francisco State Col- lege. In Women ' s Oratory, June Nakayama won first place; in Men ' s Oratory, Jerome Kilty took first; in Extempore, John Harvey was first. In Debating, Phyllis Anderson and John Harvey came in first. The National finalists contest was held in Stockton April 12 and 13. The teams entered were Meister and Steiner. Anderson and Kilty, Greenberg and Zelechower. Karonsky and Robins. Conn and McRae, Bernstein and Brinner, and Charles Cohen and Naiiman. The contestants in the extempore were Harvey and Steiner: Dramatics Declamation, Kilty and Shank: Humorous Declamation, Longland and Sears; and Oratorical Declamation, Kilty and Robins. Lowell was the only school that had two teams undefeated all the way through the contest. On May 22. Seymour Meister and Barbara McRae represented Lowell against George ashington, and David Robins and George Karonsky debated against Polytechnic. Re- sults are not known as this journel went to press. Kilty wins the interschool Kilty goes to the all-city con- competition (or the Lions ' test and comes home with the Club contest. plaque. Coach George Lorbeer is the man who keeps Lowell on top in debating. Meister wins the interschool, and later, places second in the California Bankers ' contest.

Alexander, the Girls ' Advanced Glee Club has finished a memorable term. The presidency of the club went to Shirley Foster. The Triple Trio, made uj) of the best voices of the club, played its usual part. Members included Barbara Beall, Shirley Button, and Shirley Foster, first sopranos: Doris Lewis, Jeanne Radanovich, and LaYonne Sears, second sopranos; Marjorie Hauck, Margaret Leibach, and Pearl Steiner, altos. Much time was spent in preparation for the Spring Concert which the Girls Glee presented on May 24. Selected were compositions of such world-renowned com- posers as Lassus, Perjolesi, Bach, and Schumann, as well as modern and contem- porary pieces so that the concert included several centuries of music. Soloists of the concert were Shirley Foster and Mattie Jean Gould. Two accompanists, Marion Burness and Florence Morrison, helped the club to render their songs. Much credit is due these two girls, for. without their willing cooperation many songs would remain unsung.

WARD ROYAL President Lowell P.T. A. The year now entering its closing months has been an unusually active and happy one for the Lowell Parciit-Tcaclier Association. We hope that our meeting together to study some of the problems of youth in this chaotic period lias made us better and more understanding i)ar- ents. Under our capable Prograna Chairman, Mrs. Waldo Postel, good speakers, as well as student ])articipation, have made our meetings most interesting. Our large membership (the largest in the city), shows the active interest the parents of ] owcll students take in their school. Many of them received their own high school education at Lowell, and coming back as Parent-Teacher Members has been a privilege and a joy. Our first consideration is Student Aid, and a number of students are receiving regular monthly remittances to cover car fare, lunches, and incidentals, which make their continuing in high sciiool possible. Fifty-seven dollars a month is paid out in this way, and fifty dollars has been given Mr. Stephens for an emergency fund. The revolving Librarv Fund makes it possilile to jjurchase many hooks and magazines whicii could not otiierwise i)e secured. Blankets for tiie football team were purchased last fall. Due to war and strike conditions they arrived too late for the use of our championshij) team. l)ut they will see service next season and fill a real need, and we sincerely liope anotlier team of champions will be on hand to use them. A season sym- phony ticket was |)urchased for the music department, and we are endeavoring to secure some more nuisical instruments for our orchestra. Mr. Polland has been most helpful by putting on one nigiit of the term play as a Parent- Teacher benefit. This has assisted us greatly in carrying on our work. A large majority of the faculty are mendiers, and their help and cooperation has proved invaluable. Miss LaSeur is our most enthusiastic and helpful faculty representative, e are still without the Girls Gymnasiinn whicli the Parent- reacher Association has worked so hard to secure, and the slowness of the Powers That Be is not to our liking, but llu ' [ lans are about complete aiul work shoidd start very soon. e are eagerlv looking forward to the com])letion of this a(l lition to our plant, as it is sonu-thing we have been working for a long time. We are promised a loud sjieaker system for this new building, wliicli sili ite a big help. The condition of the grounds around Lowell has been of mucli concern to u.-. and stei)S are being taken now to iiave tlieni improved. During 1939 and 1940 the business of the Parent-Teacher Association has been in tin- capable hands of the following olTicers: President. Mrs. Ward Royal: llou rar ice-Pr ' si(lciit.

Magnifi- cent and mighty, these mountains, the highest in this hemisphere, offer to the sportsman countless varieties of recreation, for modern South America has relin- quished most of her native sports and adopted our northern sports just as she has done in our other ideas. However, the sports of cock-fighting and bull-fighting still persist for sports such as these which tv|)ify the Latin spirit cannot be easily relinquished. The nature of the sports will vary according to the altitude. Toward the top of the Andes, where the snow lasts all year round, winter sports would dominate. Like the Swiss Alps, there are innumerable clear mountain lakes between the slopes, j)erfect for ice-skating and still lower down the Andes, where the climate is warmer, these lakes are used for the popular sjtorts of swimming and fishing. It ' s Raaka sinking a set up in the Season ' s opener against St. Igna- tius. Dallmar, 11, and Lee. walk- ing, can easily be seen. JUEGO de PELOTA de CESTA [BASKETBALL] In the last wild minutes, by the slim margin of one liasket, Lowell, five year casaba champ, lost the cliampionship to Washington, Thursday. February 8. and wrote fini ' to a reign that has never been equaled and will probably not be for years to come. Howard DaJhnar. brilliant all-city center, was the only first string veteran. Carl Raaka, forward and John Owen, guard, were from tiie ' 39 130db. squad, Paul Har- less, guard, saw action in the latter part of last season, and Ed Lee, forward was from the reserves. Practice games netted three wins against ( ustlemont. Piedmont, and . an Rafael, and losses against the California Frosh, Stanford Frosh, and Palo Alto. Howie Dallmar. third liigli league scorer, witli iiis suj)erl ba ' kboard control and center fake, made center on everybody ' s All-City. Paul Harless, figliting guard, merited second string All-City. The coolness of Jolm Owen and Carl Raaka in the tiglit places iielped greatlv to put the team in lh ' wiiuiing coluinii. Owen specialized on swishers from twenty feet out and Raaka on lightning .set shots. Ed Lee, always dependable, rounded out the team ' s fiftii position. Jake Battat, forward, and Bob Tro|)|)niann. guard, saw action in every game. Arnold, ( iierry. Cooke, Irvine. O ' Neil, Paulson, and Porter, completed tile squad that brought Lowell to the runner up place in the A. A. A. LOWELL 28 - ST. IGNATIUS 18 III the season ' s opener at Kezar Pavilion. Tluirsday, January 18, a calm, nietliodical basket- ball five thraslied tlie W ildcats midst Dallmar s hifih scorinj; of ten points. St. Ignatius led at the outset, scoring the first bucket, but, with a tricky, slow break, which sent Raaka under the basket to score, the Indians were never threatened again. Free throws by Dall- mar and short shots by Raaka. Lee, Harless and Battat accounted for the scoring spree. This game clearly established Lowell as contenders for the championship and although a green outfit, they were one of the highly polished prep teams. LOWELL 20 - BALBOA 10 Playing anything but snappy ball. the Indian five out-maneuvered a fumbling Balboa quintet on the Kezar hardwood, Tuesday, January 2.3. (larl Raaka, playing a business- like game, sparked the team with his eight high points. After a three minute scoreless beginning, Harless tanked a free throw, followed by Ed Lee ' s set up and then Dallmar ' s swisher from twenty feet out, ending the quarter, 5-3. At the end of the half tosses by Owen and Harless showed a scoreboard reading of 9-6. Looking more like the champs, the Indians went to work in the second half following Raaka ' s three field goals and Dall- mar ' s one to make the reading 17-7. In the final minutes Owen and Raaka boosted the score to the final reading. Raaka ' s high points, Dallmar ' s rebounding, and Owen ' s calm ball-handling showed the way for Lowell. LOWELL 24 - GALILEO 19 ith Howie Dallmar playing the role of hero, the Lowell varsity defeated Galileo in a real thriller, Wednesday, January 31. Out for three-quarters of the game with a wrenched ankle, Dallmar came into the game to help put it on ice. Because of the lack of rebound- ing the first half ended in the Lion ' s favor. 10-9. Battat. Harless, Lee, Owen, and Raaka accounted for the scoring. Trailing 12-9 midway in the third quarter. Coach Neff sent in Dallmar. Immediately the team came to life. Raaka, Dallmar and Lee, fouled, sank their free throws. Dallmar got a set shot and two more fouls making the score 17-16 going into the fourth quarter. Galileo, attempting to stall for five minutes, finally lost their oppor- tunity, when Dallmar ' s pass to Owen and Owen ' s pass to Dallmar, both good for four points, plus Battat ' s lay-up field goal, ended the game. Orchids to Dallmar for his cour- ageous playing, wracked with pain, to spark his team to victory. LOWELL 28 - POLYTECHNIC 26 Avenging a defeat which Poly gave to the Cards last year, terminating their twenty-seven game winning streak, Lowell sped to victory Tuesday, February 13, at Kezar. Sparked by Dallmar ' s fourteen points the five raced up and down the court, running the Parrot quintet to a frazzle. Raaka. Lee. Dallmar and Harless sent the Indians into an early first (|uarter lead of 9-4. At the half the Red and Black were in the fore 12-11. led by their di- minutive ace, Mc( ubbin. But Lowell came back strongly in the third quarter, with the aid of Raaka and Dallmar, who went wild tanking eight points in swift succession, ac- quiring a lead of 23-15. The Parrots made a last feeble attempt in the final quarter but to no avail, as a pass from Dallmar to Raaka in the hole cinched the game. LOWELL 24 - COMMERCE 23 A desperate last minute stall saved Lowell from an embarrassing defeat Monday, Febru- ary 26, at Kezar. Playing a listless game the Red and ' W bite leaned heavily on the four- teen high points of Dallmar and the coolness of guard Owen.

Becoming desperate, the Commerce and Lowell quintets matched bucket for bucket, until Dallmar. Raaka, and again Dallmar put the Indian five into a safe lead. But the Bulldogs came within one point of Lowell, and Ben Neff ' s Co. had to use their famous stall. Harless, always fighting under the basket, helped the Cardinal quintet greatly. LOWELL .32 -MISSION IS Blasting the myth that the Lowell five depended on Dallmar to win. Raaka, Lee, Owen, and Harless proved it when they met the Bears ednesday, February 28. at the pavilion. Harless and Raaka, constructing an early .5-0 score, paced the way as the Indians never re- linquished their lead. Freely substituting Troppmann and Battat his ace reserves. Coach Neff ran the Mission five ragged, when near the end of the game Paulson, Cooke. Arnold, O ' lVeil and Porter also saw action. Harless was high point man with nine, two more than Raaka who played his best high school game. It was 17-6 at half time and 21-8 entering the final quarter as the subs took over. LOWELL 32 - SACRED HEART 22 Paced by Dallmar ' s ten points a carefree Indian five won at Kezar Friday, March 8. Ed Lee, playing his best game. Raaka. Owen, Dallmar and Harless, ended a glorious prep campaign till in the third quarter the ' 41 varsity took over. Leading at the quarter, 4-3. the Irish gave the Red and bite a hard time but Raaka, Dallmar and Owen got hot and gave Lowell a 14-10 lead at the intermission. Lee and Harless helped to make a safe 2.5-10 lead as Paulson, O ' Neil, Arnold, Troppmann, and Porter came in to clean up. LOWELL 20 - WASHINGTON 22 A close decision was the margin between victory and defeat, a new champion and the end of a glorious five year reign. For it was on Thursday, February 8. at Kezar that the Lowell basketball team lost to V ' asbington, when Howie Dallmar was sent out of tiie game after he had committed four fouls when the Indians were leading 18-17. Then, without Dallmar ' s control of the backboard, the tall ashington quintet took over as Maestri, without Dallmar ' s guarding. sla])ped the tieing and winning shots through the mesh. Dall- mar had led the scoring with eleven points and it was he who scored first under the hoop. The Eagles, matching ()w Mrs floor shot, led at the (piarter . ' )-l. Owen. Lee. and Dallmar found the hoop in the second tpiarter to push the Cards into a 12-11 lead. Dallmar and Raaka iiKule the count, 18-17. Then as Dallmar left the game. Maestri tied it on his charity toss, Harless one good effort gave Lowell the lead until Maestri ' s killing shot. (Cheers for the fighting Indians, for in losing they showed a good winner can be just as good a loser.

The Red and Vi hite Golf Squad consisted of eight men. Number one man was Greenie Far- rell and following him were Alf Farren, Creighton Grady, Boh Cardinal, Art Schwartz, Bert Hartford. Harry Camp, and Ed Sherman. Although the Lowell Divot Kings did not excel in pre-tournament, matches they were a hard team to heat. In the Northern (-alifornia Junior Championship Lowell qualified four men in the seventies and advanced two men to the semi-finals. In the San Francisco City Cham- pionships Alf Farren and Creighton Grady qualified in the championship flight while Bob Cardinal qualified in the sixth flight. Although Farren and Grady were eliminated in tough matches. Bob Cardinal succeeded in winning a cup. In the A. A. A. Meet held May 1st at Ingleside, Lowell easily stole the crown, being thirteen strokes imder their nearest rivals, Polytechnic and Washington. Alf Farren ' s qualifying score of 68 was the lowest ever carded by any prep golfer.

Con ;ratulations, Coach Delman on your fine first year with Lowell lif:Iilwfif;ht track. 84 EL TENIS [TENNIS] Coach Lighty proudly started his first term as Lowell ' s tennis coach with a real galaxy of net stars. Boasting such outstanding players as Harry Buttimer, the {evada State junior singles and doubles champion; Harry Likas, who has among other titles, the United States National junior doubles championship, and the California State junior singles championship: Harry Roche, the Pacific Coast under fifteen champion, Lowell looks like a certain winner in the ap- proaching triple A meet. At this date it is impossible to give the results of the City meet, but experts feel safe in predict- ing that Lowell will easily take winner and runner-up in both the singles and doubles matches. In the City meet four singles players and four doubles teams are entered from each high school. Entered in the meet for Lowell will be Harry Buttimer, Harry Likas, Teddy Myers, and Gene Rauscher in the singles; and Harry Roche and Joe Greeley, George Chichester and Rudy Kuhn, Leon Goldbetz and arren Logan, Naylor Hartwig and George Liebes in the doubles matches. Only two practice meets were held this term. In a practice meet six men are entered. Each plays a singles match and then pairs off to play three doubles matches. Scores of these meets are based on the number of matches won out of nine. Lowell ' s pellet-paddlers first met the Cal Fresh- men, and, although they lost the meet, five to four, they were the first high school players to take four matches from the Bear Yearlings. The second meet brought the team against San Mateo Junior College, and this time Lowell ' s racquet swingers returned triumphant with a seven to two victory.

' eterans from the 19,}9 crew were: George Backman, Captain Cla) ton (Calender, Dick. Culver, Willis Hitchcock, Pete Kepon and Don Welcome. After a great deal of competition and hard practice the first hoat consisted of: Starhoard side: stroke. Vi illis Hitchcock: 5, Stuart Smith: 4, Dick .Niello; 3, Joe Cullen; 2, Jack ' oodfield, and George Backman, how. On the port side: Stroke, (Captain) Clayton Calender; 5, Pete Kepon; 4, Dick Culver; 3, Kenneth Eustace; 2. Ed Pringle: how is Boh Drouin. Frank Guerena was cox and Jim Montrose, pilot, riie first race was with Balhou April 13, and, as always, the Bucs had a strong crew. The C ards lost by two lengths. The next race was with Galileo, on April 27, which tiie Indians lost by the narrow margin of throe-cjiiarters of a lengtli. Following came St. Ignatius on April 19 which they won by tiiree lengtiis. The figlit- ing Indians brought forth a victory over Sacred Heart on .May 9 by six lengths. Mission ' s champion oarsmen easily outrowed the fmm Cards on May 11. Hopes for the championship next year are high for two reasons: Captain Calender will be hack and so will Pringle. . milh and Welcome wiio are equally good. Second, is thai after each of tlie varsity races second ijoat races wen- held anrl Lowell won e erv contest. Eleven of these second boat champions ' will n-liirn to ork for the 1941 championship. 86 5 feir6e tt ■ - =■ ¥- ' .(f?). ♦J ?■ ' P - ;-i ' .:-M3lftV ' -; o O ' ' « . ,% V «f A irtin Kalvelage lexter Tight Jack Geary Les Petterson Bill Hcndricl son Remo CunibertJ George Kritsky Bill Majors Max Singer Tom Strei Bob Tonnesen Alex Vladimtroff Guy Watson LIGHTWEIGHT CREW Third Row: Vladimiroff.

The Cards defeated mighty Balboa in their first race on April 13. It was a nip and tuck battle uj) to half way and then the Indian stalwarts pulled ahead and staved off the Balboa sprint at last to win. In the following Galileo race on April 18 the Red and White aggregation came from behind to nip the Lions by 3 feet. St. Ignatius followed on April 27 and this was another close battle, but the Papooses emerged victorious. Sacred Heart was next on May 9 and an easy victory was the fruit of the previous hard labors by the boatmen. This race cinched the championship because in the final race with Mission, the Bears had no 30 ' s crew and used a jiuiior varsity. Even under this handicap the Indians showed their mettle and defeated the highly favored Bears by a length. Orchids to Coach Lighty. who inulertook crew for the first time, and produced a fighting championship boat. 87 LOS CAMPEOXES de [CHAMPIONS OF Splashiiif: tlieir way to a cliaiiiifioiisliii), tlie Lowell Uiilimili ' d .Mcriiien refrained tlieir title, in the A.
