AMEN We, the members of the Senior Class of the Oakdale Union High School, being of reasonably sound mind and body, realizing the inevitable approach of Commencement when our corporeal existence must end, do hereby bequeath and devise our earthly possessions as herein shall appear. To the Class of 1948, of our Alma Mater, we leave our superior school spirit, in the sincere hope that it may be carefully fostered to the end that the love of learning may grow and flourish like the rose. To the Freshmen we leave our enthusiasm and our joy in life. May they learn, as did we, the happiness to be found in the gaining of knowledge. To the Sophomores, our younger brothers, mindful of the many times when success crowned our own efforts, we leave our perseverance and our ability to finish a hard task with success. To all of those happy fellow students of Oakdale Union High School who shall come after us, we leave our bright-eyed optimism and our hope for the future, together with our belief that somewhere, someday, a series of new build- ings will arise upon our campus-buildings in which young people, unhamp- ered by crowds, comfortable, at ease, quiet, may successfully pursue knowledge and justify the hopes of their parents and friends for their education. And to all good friends everywhere we leave our memories of four years of hapl-'JY experiences, and our hope of a happier era when peace and under- standing shall rule an undivided world. Signed on this day, the seventh of Iune, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-seven, in the city of Oakdale, The Members of the Class of '47. wh . 4, ,J Q, QW iq fw, L ,F ms -' H. 1 'fix x , R sw uf., + ,A K ,fn '- x Q .

The Class ot '48 was highly successful in taking a great share in conducting numerous activities concerning the school. Ot its l96 members, 18 are on the CSF. and a large number participate in all departments of the various sports. The Iuniors have also been prominent in music, drama, and art. During the tirst semester two dances and Galen Harvey, humorous entertainer, were success- fully sponsored by this class. The energy exerted in the sales of Reynolds Rockets proved the ambition lor which the Iunior class is known. During the second semester, the Iunior class sponsored Emiline Bogue, dra- matist and platform artist, additional dances, and a most welcomed swim party. The colorful IuniorfSenior Prom and annual assembly added greatly to the spirit of the students and faculty. FIRST ROW, left to right: R. KHGPP, C. Milligan, W. Lemons, C. Brown, M. Espinoza, F.

To be the peppiest class in high school has been the aim of the Sophomore class throughout the year. The class started with one of the tirst social affairs ofthe school year by putting on the Sophomorefljreshman get-acquainted party. Upon short notice, the class of '49 presented to the student body the excellent talent within their class by stag- ing the highly successful Sophomore Assembly. The class then sponsored a world traveler and humorist and a movie. The Sophomore Easter party and Scphfrosh swimming party were decided successes. The class athletic teams won many championships and members of the class were on the various athletic teams that represented the school. The Cali- fornia Scholarship Federation had many representatives from the Sophomore class. Cooperating with the student body, the class completed all projects undertaken. f ' f 3 :Q FIRST ROW, left io right: 5. Wheat, O. Sandoval, W. Laughlin, D. Laughlin, I. Saludes, M. Swuilord.

Miss Marian McKenzie is the sponsor of the Oakdale Chapter of the Federation. Officers for the first semester were: Maurice Rager, president, Henry Proctor, vice president, Barbara Fisk, secretary, and Harry Low, treas- Llfef. Every member is given a tiny gold pin in the shape of a torch. If he belongs to the C.S.F. for six semesters, one semester being in his Senior year, he is given a gold lamp pin upon grad- uating, and the gold seal of the C.S.F. is stamped upon his diploma. Ten credits are required for membership. In any subject except P.E., an A counts 3 credits and a B counts 1 credit. These grades are based on semester average. Either an F, an Incom- plete, or poor citizenship automatically disquali- fies an applicant. Sectional meetings of the Scholarship Fed- eration are held monthly at some school in the district. A limited number of members from each chapter represent their individual organiza- tions. These social gatherings and business meetings help greatly in fostering friendship among the different schools. Another highlight of the year in the C.S.F. is the annual ditch day which is given them by the school to do with as they please. A picnic is usually the event which occupies this day. The above picture is composed of the mem- bers during the fall semester. The second semester showed an increase with seventy-eight Oakdale High School students having earned membership. Students who be- came members are as follows: Leona Anderson, Charlotte Barnett, Betty Barnhill, Lois Barnhill, Verna Bashor, Kathleen Bennett, Virginia Bianchi, losephine Baccari, Agnes Bolter, Bruce Bonner, Bernadine Brennan, Louise Bush.

The Sophomore Class lie' came champions in volleyball, and, in speedball, the luniors and Seniors he came co-champions. Basketball and tumblina followed speedball and volleyball in the winter months. On February 15, Oakdale class teams traveled to Modesto where they participated in a basketball playday. Seven ol the county schools were repre- sented at that playday. The hiqhliqht ot the airls' sports year is Girls' Gym Niuht. As the Oracle qoes to press, there is some confusion as to a suitable date ici this night, ln April the physical education department turns to sottball and individual sports, which include horseshoes, tennis, badminton, archery, and pliiq-pOt'1q. The aym department has attempted many new procedures this year, and one ol the most highly successful ones has been the posture pictures. Pictures oi every airl in school were taken, and attempts to correct posture were sincerely made by instructors and airls. Oakdale is one ot the tew schools in the state and possibly the only school in the county that has beaun this method ot instrucf tion. The results are very promising.

U ' jlntbal Under the steady hands of Coaches Harry Aronson and Howard Biddle, the 1946 football squad, powered with strong offensive and defensive teams, rang up a league championship for the season. Lacking experience, the Oakdale Mustangs first traveled to Turlock, only to meet a 13 to 6 upset at the hands of the Bulldogs. With several more days practice under their belts, the Mustangs traveled to Santa Clara to battle Bellarmine. Although hard fought, the game was a decisive victory for the Bellarrnine eleven as they trounced the Oakdale players 19 to O. Even in defeat, fullback Leroy Giovannoni and left half Glen Bacigalupi sparked the game against the overwhelming odds. Owing to the fact that these two games were only practice ones, the Mustangs' hopes were not in the least shattered when they met the Tra'cy Bulldogs on the home turf, defeated them 31 to U. Fullback Leroy Giovannoni scored three touchdowns and passed to left end Bob Moser, for another tally. Lindy Morris, right half, raced Continued on page 581 fl J FIRST ROW, le!! to riqhi: R.

With a squad totaling over one hundred boys, the 1947 Track team, under Coach Howard Riddle, was one of the top teams among the league. Outranked by Modesto and Turlock, the Mustangs' eagerness was shown when they de- leated Ceres, Sonora, and Edison at a home encounter. As the Oracle goes to press, Coach Riddle has meets scheduled with Ceres, Lodi, Tracy, and is also entering his team in the Auburn Invitational, the Fresno, and the Modesto Relays. Star performers were Albert Farnocchia in the mile, Don Mahaney in the broad jump, Bob Shelton in the 880, Bill Verzani, in the lOO, Doug DeWitt and Bob Staudenmaier in the high hurdles.

A TEAM Under the efficient supervision of Coach Harry Aronson the Oakdale Varsity Basketball squad completed their very successful season with high honors and a league championship. With veterans Moser, Wallace, Morris, Giovannoni, and Bacigalupi return- ing, the Mustangs soon proved themselves by victory after victory. During the season, battling through thick and thin, the Mustang quintet man- aged to defeat thirteen of their twenty opponents. The final game, Tracy vs. Oak- dale, was one of the hottest battles of the league, but the Mustangs came through to defeat the Bulldogs 32 to 31 to end the season. 46'a.4!mt6alL B TEAM With Coach Ioe Siegfried leading the way, the Oakdale Iunior Varsity squad defeated opponent after opponent to tally a l946-47 basketball league cham- pionship. With such outstanding players as Dale Clipper, Orville Guenther, Veryle Hunt, and Iohn Lerch, the Colts marched through to rank tops among the high scorers. Undergoing an operation on his hand, Dale Clipper was replaced at the last five games by center Clayton Coleman, who upheld Clippers scoring Yes, the Mustang Colts enjoyed a really successful season.

Today, in our high schools and colleges, a form of wrestling known as Catch-as-catch can is practiced. One catches his opponent, applying holds taught by competent instruc- tors, and either pins his man's shoulders flat on the canvas or wins by points. Wrestling provides not only a valuable train- ing in worthy character, but a definite trend to- ward friendly participation in competitive ac- tivities. The l94'7 baseball squad, headed by Coach Ioe Siegfried, turned out to be one of the best in their division. The following boys were mainstays on the team: Karl Ohe and Glenn Arnett, pitching: Rowland Nicholson, first basep Eugene Stevens, second base: Rafael Raagas, third base: Dave Vallo, shortstop, Ierry Cole, left field, Orville Guenther, center fieldy and Roy Banducci, right field. As the Oracle goes to press, the Mustangs have defeated Modesto 12-6, Hughson 12-6, and lost their only game to Escalon, 2-O. Coach Siegfried has hopes of coming out on top of the 1947 baseball league. t . We ...M N S Z .J i i.

The number grew to about sixty-five at mid term. In addition to Commander Riddle, the Cadet Corps was led by three able assistants, Captain Rob- ert Moser, First Lieutenant David Clark, and First Lieutenant lack lvfcluaughlin. On Ianuary 25, the Cadets went to Patterson to enjoy a field day. May saw the cadets at an- other field day in Manteca. By comparison they did much better at the latter place. ln March the rifle range was completed and was soon the scene of bullets flying somewhere close to the bullseye. Several times during the year the Cadets were inspected by Col. Carter H. Speed from the Ad- jutant General's Office in Sacramento. The boys are looking forward to cadet training next year. 1101161014 Under the instruction of Mr. Weichert, the newly-organized tumbling team became a ma- jor part of the Oakdale athletic teams. The tum' blers were highly acclaimed at all the programs at which they appeared. This included a student rally and a performance for the drama class. Tumbling requires the utmost coordination and grace which is sometimes hard to develop in a young man. Tumbling adds to the poise and bearing of the active tumbler. This sport also shows the strength and agility of the participant. Mr. Weichert, tumbling advisor, was very pro' ficient in this sport during his high school and college years. He expects to have more exhi- bitions in the future. Stk Uaauffy, Jnnfball, tContinued from page 53? for the fifth touchdown on a splendid 45-yard run, and Dave Vallo drop kicked the extra point. The Mustangs next traveled to Livingston where they met the strong Wolf team, and at the half the score was tied. The Mustangs trotted back onto the field and on a pass from fullback Giovannoni to end Bill Verzani, brought the final score 14 to 4. Orville Guenther, outstanding right end, suffered a broken collarbone during the game and was forced out of the remaining games, much to the regret of his teammates. With two league victories to their credit, the squad tangled with the Manteca Buffaloes on the opponents' turf and overpowered them 6 to 0. The score came when Giovannoni passed to Moser, who leaped into the air to make a beautiful grandstand catch. Players Giovan- noni, Arnett, and Davis shone bright for the Mustangs, While Leroy ludd sparked the defeated Manteca team. On the home turf, November 7, the Oakdale Mustangs' onslaught was stop- ped short by the powerful Ceres Bulldog team. The Bulldogs completed a suc- cessful pass and lateral attack to score a 12 to 6 win. Oakdale lost their only chance to tie the score when they were set back by two fifteen-yard penalties. Lindy Moris gave the Mustangs their only score on a 15-yard run in the third quarter. In the traditional Armistice Day game held at Oakdale, the Wildcats were shown a sample of the Mustangs' playing as they received a 19 to 6 trouncing. Although the Sonora Wildcats gained a 6 to 0 lead at the half the Oakdale boys retaliated and scraped up three touchdowns in the second half. Fullback Giovan- noni passed to both Moser and Verzani, who ran over for the tallies. Morris passed to Poncabare for another score. The extra point was made by a pass from Poncabare to Vallo. Oakdale scored 16 first downs to the Wildcats 3. On November 15, the Oakdale Mustangs encountered their last opponent, Edison, on the home turf and routed them 32 to 0. Passes from Giovannoni to Bacigalupi and Moser accounted for two scores, while Lerch and Chaves both scored on line plunges. The fifth score came when Ouarterback Richard Graves bucked the line while the extra point carrie when Bacigalupi passed to Ponca- bare. 7946-7947 6'a.4Ant6alL A's Bee's A's Bee's we thev we they we they we they Oakdale at Lodi , ,. . 25 39 26 33 Oakdale at Ceres .. .. ..4l 12 48 26 Hughson at Oakdale ...... 38 51 44 35 Oakdale at Turlock H28 25 30 31 Lodi at Oakdale ......... ...17 54 23 27 Oakdale at Tracy . , . .26 35 42 29 Oakdale at Modesto H23 41 27 34 Edison at Oakdale .
