In their traditional orange and black the band has performed at football games, ral- lies, assemblies, parades, and the an- nual Spring Concert. One of the biggest events of the year was the trip to Long Beach to compete with bands throughout the West. The MHS Band has always excelled in this competition. Any honors which are given this group may be credited to the fine di- rection of Director Fredrik Steen. The Marching 100 were led by high-step- ping Larry Zuercher. who did an out- standing job in all respects of drum majoring. The majorettes looked very smart in their sleek uniforms.

During the year the students and the public saw a great deal of these musicians. They went as far as Hayward for one of the non-league football games this year. The spirited group always backed up the basketball team at its home games. They livened up noon rallies and added a sparkling note to many assemblies. A small group, the Pep Band was always ready to help out at a moment's notice. These students gave much of their time to representing the student body. Their polished accomplishments were due to the hard work and enthusiasm of the director. Mr. Fredrik Steen. The Pep Band was the heart of the Merced High School rooting section, and these musicians deserve congratulations for their invaluable contributions to school spirit.

DRC ESTE Once again the Merced High Orchestra has added much music and gaiety to the year. This group, consisting of about twenty members under the direction of Mr. Fredrik Steen, merits great praise for a wonderful and growing interest in music. Throughout the year the talent of the students in the or- chestra has been presented. The most memorable performances were their playing for the Christmas program and the annual Spring Concert. At both, very fine and well chosen numbers were played for audience enjoyment and appreciation. The goal of all violinists in orchestra is to earn the right to sit in the first chair. This is done by what is known to these students as challenging By challenging, the student can work his way to this chair and, if able to remain there, he is chosen as Concert Master or Mistress.

CIENCE CLUB One of the newest clubs on the campus this year was the Science Club, which celebrated its second year at Merced High. This fine or- ganization was open to all science students or to any students who had an interest in science. The club's main object was to promote more interest in science at the high school age. Ad- visers Mr. Miller, Mr. Peat, and Mr. Weir guided the members along this path. The Science Club took several field trips. had interesting guest speakers, and viewed technical films. The club met every other Mon- day and had an average attendance of about forty enthusiastic members.

The members also made portraits and tint- ed them with oil paints. Other things they did were the making of silhou- ettes and the developing of colored film. Each member was free to use the darkroom any day after school. The regular meetings were held every Wednesday after' school.

The organization is responsible pri- marily for three things: C11 providing projectionists for all films shown in the classrooms, 121 handling all stage op- erations including all lighting and sound, C35 dealing with all student body activities such as setting up pub- lic address systems for games, rallies, and dances. Mr. Blake, the adviser, and the ofli- cers planned a program of recreation for the members. This year the club had a skating party in January, took field trips to the radio stations and the movie theaters after school hours, and enjoyed a picnic together at the end of the year.

S COMMITTEE The Program Committee sponsored the Pommerettes and Bears. There were eight Pommerettes and three Bears. The Pommerettes were excel- lent. The Bears aided Pommer- ette routines with funny antics. The members of the committee voted to allot S10 to each bear and pommerette for costume expenses. The annual picnic for the members was held at the end of the year Experienced mem bers will return to bolster the committee in 60 and graduate members will surely be missed At one of their regular meetings the program commit tee headed by Wayne Curtlce discussed the activities of the club -Q Our peppy Pommerettes Carolyn Sllva Betty Hoffmelster Carol Edlefsen Patty Scar borough Ruth Hoffmelster Sharon Enloe Juliette Thompson and Margie Lakey PEPPE ETTES Pepperettes 19 a wonderful opportunltx for those lntendlng to be nurses The club provldes lts members wlth a knowledge of the dlffer ent phases of nursmg The Pepperettes gave partles for the ch1ldren 1n hospltals and pro Vlded entertalnment for the aged At the age of 16 a member could become a nurses ass1stant to experlence actual hosp1tal work All Pepperette members were taken on field trlps through various hos p1tals to study the dlfferent sectlons of hospxtal work such as surgery emergencv surgerv emergencx nursmg and patlent nurs1ng Mrs Sarah Slmmerman was the advlser of Pepperettes this year Through the guldlng hand of Mrs S1mmerman, the members of Pep perettes were glven the knowledge and experlence needed hy enthusl astlc' students who are looklng forward to the professlon of nursmg if fb 'Q BACK ROVV President I' Iles n Be lm Vice Pre sldc nt Marx X lrirra Tre isurc r Rlta l' ldI'lflf,O FRON I' ROVV Historian Rosemarx lozano Qc 1 retarx Rose lN1 lrn C lrdc n 1 ng President Plleen Beam talks as the club members llsten attentnelx Mrs Slmmerman the clubsadvlser looks on Ag ff'-LA 2 BACK ROW B Eggman D Burks M Glest E Beam I Court J Garrett M Ybarra E Garcia J Ford FRONT ROW R Eldr1dge,J Page, D Dun E Perez B Valtlerra S McFord R Cardenas, R Lorano .

The Block M is an athletic organization con- sisting of MHS boys who have earned their varsity letters in one of the many sports played here at school. Each letterman takes upon himself the responsibility of bringing credit and honor to the school by striving to promote good sportsmanship. Under the direction of well-liked and de- pendable Coaches Edminster and Smith this year's activities included award assemblies during the fall and spring, a banquet in the fall to honor fall athletic award winners, and a picnic in the spring to honor spring letter winners.

Most of the boys who play football started as underclassmen in B football. This gives them practice. skill, and good fundamentals so that they can go on to play on future varsity teams. This year the boys showed a great deal of spirit and enthusiasm in all of their games. Although they didn't win the championship, it should be mentioned that there were no seniors on the squad, and seven freshmen were on the starting team. All of the schools played this year had a majority of seniors facing our underclassmen. A very fine job of coaching was done by Coach Gilbert Mendonsa and Coach Ernie Devaurs. They put in much time helping the boys to develop football sense. Some of the outstanding players were Curt Rodrigs, Tom Solis, Don Wicker, Joe Plant, Art Gutierrez, and Bill Owens. B -wi!--P il.

They displayed good sportsmanship and a great desire to win, although they were the victors in only a few of their games. A high spot of the season was the winning of the Consolation Championship trophy at the Modesto Tournament this year. The spotlight game of the season was the Merced-Edison game in which the Bears came out victorious with a tight score of 45-44 over the league- leading Tigers. The top players this year were Ron- nie Franks, Bill Newsom, Orlin Barker, Roy Brown, Henry Primm, and Felix Alvarez. MHS will be losing the latter four through graduation.

These techniques and skills will be used in the years to come. for these boys have hopes of becoming mighty Varsity cagers. Many of these boys have had this season as their first year in compe- titive basketball. Under the super- vision of Coach Lewis. the D team won five games, and the C team won all of their games. Although these small but mighty Bears did not play in any league, they did an outstanding job, and we are proud of them. , .lk Manager Felix Alvarez, Coach Joe Lewis, Manager Bill Ingel 'IT-IE STUDENT BODY SZSLUTES OUR MI G TEAM - Congratulations on an undefeated season I D Ward R Blackston M Noumov E White FRONT Baker FRONT ROW F Wizner J Wolarldge F ROW D Crandell C Baltazar T Hogue C Visher J Madkins J Garcia J VlSh9T B Roblnson Palmer RIGHT C Team BACK ROW G Cleary D LEFT: D Team.

Although the team started the season with only 3 returning letter- men, over 20 boys turned out for practice. These boys showed marked improvement throughout the season. In the Delano Tournament the team won first place in the consolation bracket - the first time in MHS history! This year the tournament was rich with home runs' Larry Combs hit 3 and Dan Townsend Tony Trujillo and Jon Epps each got one Great credit and appreciation are due to Coaches Bill Joerg and Hooks Devaurs for all the time and effort they have spent with the team Coach Demro laid the groundwork for a fine baseball future at MHS with his thorough training of the Junior and Frosh hopefuls TOP ROW Catcher A- Paul Lerma lnfielder Jack Thompson BOT TONI Outfielder Robin Ingraham Outfielder Keith Crane Pitcher Iarrv Combs Baseball Coaches Ernie Devaurs Wes Demro and Bill Joerg 'PAN LWB WV my 'B LEFT Varsity Squad BACK ROW K Crane R ROW R Ingraham M Kemps D Townsend T Solis Brown B Newsom L Combs R Allowav I Zentner J Epps P Lerma RIGHT Pitching Staff R Brown MIDDLE ROW J Vlsher J Pacheco M Crisp J L Combs B Newsom T Hunter J Vlsher Thompson P ONelll T Hunter C Klnslev FRONT 14 U1 1, Q u I , L ' 1 CL 9, ' , ' D V . .
