Diablo on July I. 1936. In July of 1949. Mt. Diablo be- came unified, and at that time Fred Haviland was promoted to Head Custodian. He spent many hours before and after school, plus during school time to keep Mt. Diablo well kept. On October 2. 1957, students and faculty members were distinctly aware that there were no two-bell head custodian calls rung over the intercom. Fred Haviland had died that day. 0 j.A Jc P- -v G-. ■e L k ; rr £ to This book belongs to THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING J'tfX JUOtfXiL . . . Up this stairway in the fall of 1905 came the students of the Mt. Diablo Union High School to enroll for the first time in their newly constructed building. For four years the school had used temporary quarters, but now the students were proud to have a separate building. But this stairway is the entrance to our own ADMINISTRATION BUILDING! Let us join these strangely dressed young people and see our school as it was on the first day. We step into the hall. The wide stairway descends to the lower floor, but above, a wall covers the entrance to the library. On the right are two classrooms. To the left is the office of the principal. We follow the students across the hall to the left of the stairs, where we watch them hang their hats and coats in a cloakroom. Then we walk to our main office, but it is not there. Instead the floor is covered with rows of stationary desks, and a teacher assigns one to each of us. Here we will keep our books: here we will come to study and to attend assemblies. Next to this room is another large classroom. Only four rooms upstairs? No other buildings? No playfields? The campus is only a grain field set with oaks! How we wish these students could see Diablo now! They can. Some of them are living in Concord today and have watched us grow.

This has resulted in knowledge and know how in numerous fields. Few members of the first graduation class from Mt. Diablo High could have imag- ined the age of jets, rockets, missiles and satellites into which we have entered a half century later. Many people feel that the most important event of 1958 in this country has nothing to do with rockets, politics or other seemingly important subjects, but that it is in the awakening of a greater appreciation of the intellectual. If this is so. the accomplishments of the past will diminish in stature in comparison with the marvels to be revealed in the future. Every member of the class of 1958 should feel the challenge to play an important part in revealing the bright new world of tomorrow, and graduation from high school should be just the first step toward obtaining knowledge making it possible for him to play his part.

Freshman Cleanup Day rolls around once more and these ambitious fresh- men do their part to help keep our campus clean, while two lazy seniors look on. Another first for the Class of '61 was Diablo's first Freshman Career Day. Students attended an assembly in which many speakers from various professional fields spoke to them. 22 Th Preshm.m Class elected Rite O Bryan end Garrett Sbona to reign as king end queen over the Mardi Gras. These tired ole folk� take time out to rest. Some have even gone so far as to remove their shoes. The music starts and the more energetic members of the Student Body step up the tempo with a bit of Rock 'n Roll. Mrs. Helen Lum's freshman English stu- dents pay strict attention to their worthy instructor, that is. all except a few preoccupied gentlemen in the rear of the room. 23 JhsL ( rniiinsmicd, iouch, i A, Per found football gomes both novel and exciting.

He and many others from all over the world came to America last August, through the American Field Service, an organization which brings over foreign students each year to study in Amer- ican schools.

No Jimmy Valentine act of sand papered fingers was needed to open Marcia's locker. She knew her combination Much traveled, Marcia Kaufmann, from Rio de Janeiro. Brazi!, came to Diablo after soending three months with a family in Illinois. It didn't ta e long for Marcia to become a Diabloan after she arrived. She partici- pated in such activities as assemblies and the Senior Variety Show. When Marcia returns to Brazil this sum- mer, she will have left us with a better understanding of our South American neiqh- bors. 25 John Gotshall represented Mt. Diablo Marlene Dawe.

Germany, for two months. Nancy Keller was first choice to represent Diablo in a foreign country this summer. Runners-up were Barbara Riley and Marlene Dawe.

The A Cappella Choir entertains for many occasions throughout the district. They perform at concerts, assemblies, and festivals under the direction of Mr. George Prall. The choir also goes to the College of Pacific each year where it competes in the music festivals. It has been rated excellent or superior each year of its attendance. The choir is smaller this year than in previous years, therefore the dulcet tones of the individual members can be heard more clearly in this sonic age. Mr. GEORGE PRALL Director Tho Mt.

Each week these 18 student body- elected members met in the conference room to dis- cuss problems and to propose suggestions that would benefit the school. Many of the students here at Mt. Diablo High do not realize the time and effort these students forfeit to help make a successful year. The summer before these people take office, they are busy organizing and getting their committee members ready for the coming year when they legally take command. Upon entering school in the fall, each officer (both class and student body) is required to take a semester course in leadership. It is here that these newly elected students acquire the knowledge of leadership and parliamentary procedure. They are then on their own except for the privilege of coun- seling with their sponsors when they are unsure of a procedure. I'm sure everybody remembers our annual maga- zine drive in which (we) the student body obtained enough money to guarantee our foreign exchange student for the next year, our basketball scoreboard.

Our service committee is stationed in these crosswalks to protect the students from automobile traffic. Usually two members of this service committee are stationed at the main entrances and exits of each building. They do not let students go in and out the wrong door or the wrong way upstairs O' downstairs which causes confusion in hallways traf- fic.

BASKETBALL This year the Red Devils won their first league basketball chompionship in eight years with a league record of 12 wins and 2 losses. An important factor in winning the championship was the experience the Red Devil five gained by participating in several summer recreation leagues. Although facing stiff competition, Mt. Diablo posted a 19-1 record. The most successful season in Mt. Diablo basketball history was climaxed by the post season invita tion to play in California's finest prep basketball classic—the Tournament of Champions held in Berkeley at the University of California Men’s Gymnasium. In tho opening game of the T.O.C. Diablo upset the heavily favored Drake Dragons (25-1 record) by o 43-40 score. In the second game the defensive minded Red Devils held the McClymond’s Warriors and their 6 ft. 10 inch center to a mere 39 points. Mt. Diablo lost to McClymonds. Northern California’s top team, in the last minute 39 to 33. During the season many Mt. Diablo players won honors some of which no previous Red Devil player had ever received. Some of the players and their achievements are as follows: Dave Barber, Captain First team All-County. All-Metropolitan. All-Northern California and Most Valuable Player; Ron Tibulski. Most Improved player. Honorable mention All-County, and All-Tournament of Champions; Noa Satre. First team All-County, and Most Valuable piayer; Chuck Persyn.

C AND D BASKETBALL A sport which many of the students hoar about but do not support is C and D basketball. If you asked Coach Charles Karp about this sport he would tell you thot it is one of the most important activities in which a boy interested in basketball could participate. True to the basketball tradition this year, the C team, spear headed by Scott Crenshaw and Mike Sweeny, won the cham pionship with a record of 9 wins and I loss. The C's chalked up 3M points to the opponents' 135. and finished 2 games ahead of second-place Pittsburg. The D team finished third in the league and broke even on the win and loss column with a 5 5 record. The team was nearly even stotistic-wise with 215 points to the opponents' 217.

A big victory over an always powerful Richmond was cinched in the first meet of the season.

Co-captains Ernie Carvaiai and Frank Johnson, the two most reliable men, were expected to take quite a few honors before this season was over. The schedule, which Includes eight eague meets and the North State, 'was a tough one. but coach Madera seemed quite confident of his boys. The B” team also had 25 boys making up the roster with Ron Cook and Marv Muller, the two mainstays of a very capable team. The B s, who have the same schedule as the varsity, were expected to be strong contenders for the top spot in the county when Diablo ‘58 went to press. e GYMNASTICS FRONT ROW. i ff to right: Ron Cool-.

SWIMMING The swimming team, under the direction of coach Les Williams, was in a year of rebuilding because of the number of men lost last year at graduation. With only eight lettermen returning to this year's squad, coach Williams was mainly con- centrating on the younger boys for the years to come. The unusually strong B team shows the sanity of this strategy. Some of the outstanding men on this year's team are Captains Kirk Bowman and Hank Cur- eton: along with Jim Zuur and Charlie Foremen.

Jay McCoy. Joe Partanski, and Phil Sefers. The squad finally got its practice started in the second week of April after the flood season ended. Serious playing started on April 10 when the team met Pittsburg. The squad started to challenge the teams in the league April 10 and ended up league slay on May 23 when team members met Pacifica High School. Tennis has been an organized sport at Mr. Diablo for the ast seven years; although not drawing too much attention, a good seasonal crowd has watched some fast games on the home courts. Under the direction of Coach Charles Karp, this year's golf team, composed pre- dominately of young, inexperienced players, was spearheaded by Roger Moore, the only returning letterman. The team which was dominated by freshmen and sophomores was coming along very well and should be the squad to beat during the next two years. This year's team was scheduled to play eight matches and a county match, totaling nine meets in all. The league is made up of Pleasant Hill. Acalanes, Las Lomas, and a few more larger schools in the area. Although we don't expect too much this year we will be strong contenders in the near future. These boys are young but they earn fast, and a little more experience will bring them a long way, Coach Karp com- mented.
