N cg2 WHY THE PIRATES? This world is growing older, and as we read the current papers, we find that it is also growing safer and more practi- cal. But romance never dies — we know that — and we beg of you. let your im- aginations run riot just this once. As you turn the leaves of this 1929 Madrono, picture for yourselves a blustering band of honest-to-goodness pirates — villain- ous men with cocked hats and eye- patches, who buried treasures and kid- napped maidens in the good old way; picture them in the midst of our mod- ern, sophisticated world: it is their re- action to it that we have attempted to portray in these pages for your benefit. Therefore — the pirates ' MH IN ' C ' eSki CM v: T 7 T Bcecs ol tic W s C I The Captain ' s name was Red Dog Dick.

' sh lo How We Did It By the Senior Scribe F . yf ' DiK years a,t;o. Boh Ries, !; ' sat at his small imitation mahogany desk in Room Four of the Milpitas Grammar School. He was gaz- inL; enra])turedly into space, dreaming of the day whrn he would wear a three-cornered hat and strut on the deck of ' 29 ' =, pirate sloop. (When that time came Bol) invested in a ]jair of oilcloth hoots, and a jjiratical haircut, which he still re- tains. ) To go hack a few years; during .Septemher, 1 ' ' 25. a proclamation of mobilization was issued for a crew. About 120 landlul)hers enlisted. P)lood-Eye Stew art and Piilly Rones Nichols taught them the rudiments of piracy on the high seas and set them off under skull and crossbones. Fred Fowler, a deck-swabbing gent with curly hair, rose to the presidency this year. Fred, on the third year of the voyage again took the helm and proved to be a steady pilot. ( )n the .second trij) out, Xorman Miller alternated with Fred for the captainship of the crew. The voyage has been illustrious in many ways. There are the famous four Cow-Men of football — Buss, Shreve, ( )rr, and .Mden. In tennis the Haehl twins swing a mean racc|uet ; Fowder was a track skipper, and Bud .Shre e also shone in basketball. However, don ' t think that there are no women aboard. On the contrary, there are as many mid- dies as swords and boots on this shij). P.etty .Moore has left an impression of what a lady jiirate should be on the mind of our chief l)uc- caneer, and the other Girls ' League members, with their activities in the Jinx, G. . . . ., and Girls ' Block P, have made names for themselves during the four years of their crui.se. In conclusion, we feel that everyone will agree that the class officers deserve much credit. Thev are Robert Riegg. John Hays, Edith Nef?, Rob- ert King, and John .Alden. And in the imiuortal words of Nathan (Bud) Hale, Our only regret is that we have but one graduation to give to our countrv. fi ' l Robert Christensen Betty Moore Frances Avres Helen de Roco Herman Estes Edward De Fraga Samuel Shexk John Tipton Ellnore Pearson Lucille Morey Margaret Stuart John Kitasako 1,2; George Am.mr Betty Barrktt Norman Miller Gretchex Gleim I ' rANI ' KS (JKORCE 1- rki krkk Fowler Jerd.me Whitaker Lois Parkkr Caretta Miles Sydney N ' andervoort Christine Simdnsen Harry Haehl I ' 33 ft Mark Orr Rosemary Smith Walter Stromquist Molly Buenzle i ' s 1 Helex Phillips Louis Sparks, Jr. Palmer Larson Betty Squires 1 AL RY Neff Brooks Whitney Eloise Brann Harold Miller i ' 4i Elizabeth Xorris Alfrkii Seale, Jr. Edith Dietz Gray Evans John Hi ti.kr Ei.siE Cardoza Barbara McCi.Eon WiLsoxE Erskine Ernest O ' Hair Opal N ' rolaiiiks Rudolph Wrht Virginia John II ' 5l Elsik Anderson Paul Klepper Elizabeth Pos Paul Stanton Paul Houseman Edith Jane Cook Veva Jane Haehl Charles Denny P)iNG Sun Doris Barrett John Allen Dorothy Haggitt II16I Donald Kinkkad Georgia Mii.i.kr GllLliIK HllihXH Fraxcks HtRD Miller JosEWSKi Harold Herreman EmileLarris James Warner Doris Hunter Helen- Davenport Roberta Evans Robert Duncan James Badcon Marie Evans Grace Boyson Blanche Flotre Verna Sparks Robert Winborn Paul Buss Ruth Casey Berenice Vandervoort WlLMA Shibley Edwarda Layne Roberta Payson I ' Sj RoXAl.l) MORF.Y Josephine (jiiidings Mary .Mi)R(;ax Margaret Buchaxax Richard Beckett Lawrence Hall Benjamin Hickey Jordan Graxe I.oL ' isE Palmer Helen Alison Marjorie Mathevvsox Ray WiLBiR, Jr. f ' 9l c .

' I ' hose freshmen did not realize, uiidoiihtedlv because such a thing seemed un.attainahle. that some day they were to he anions; the chief executors of their new school ' s activities. The time was IouilJ in coniin,i; ' , hut it came to a certainty when Circle I ' ' s and then Hlock l ' s hef ' an t(j adorn red sweater fronts, when more and more of the class memhers failed to Come to rei;istration until the hell rant;; duties there were many to keep them hiisy ex ' erv minute. . nd tinallv when one member became a commissioner, there was an new as])ect to things which every class comes to know — that of being upper class- men, of being of prime importance among their fellow students. Commencement, the climax (jf it all, was at once a joy and a sorrow. The thought that at last it was all over — that the l)attle was won — clashed with that unusual sensation th.-it sa s : Ciiii it be all over? Every class meets with and overcomes that same sensation of mingled trium]ih and sorrow. Mid- ear cl;isses are alw;i s miforlunate in general irregiilaril ' . Thev are con- venient for the student in hurrying his entrance into college, but decidedlv incon- venient for the school curriculum. . nd yet out of the many difficulties attending the mid-year class, there may arise fine material ; and the class of ' 29jX is not of the least. Two of its members entered Stanford Universitv in Januarv. ' 2 ' K three more will enter in the new fall term, and one, who is now w ' orking with a large company on the coast, is planning to join them later. . nd going hack into the vears, we find athletes, Foruiu Club members, Thespians, and those who have won scholar- ship cards from time to tiiue through the four short vears. These twenty-five members sailed on a medieval galleon laden with the gold of knowledge. It was hard to leave and wave good-bye to friends, and hard to stay from the exciting adventure of exi)loring a new world — hard e en to hesitate. And so the sliij) named l ' ' 2S j blew her immen.se wdiite sails and the wind carried her away from the immeastn-able coast and into a storm-tossed sea, encircled bv an empty horizon — but out of which there is destined to rise a multitude of possi- bilities. 133} (glasses During the past year we find that the freshman, sophomore, and junior classes have developed stronger organizations. Many of the members of the lower classes have successfully maintained a high scholastic standing, at the same time taking an active part in our student body activities. Several of the star athletes are lower classmen and many have taken an active part in our government. This shows that the lower classmen have as nuich interest in the school ' s welfare as have the seniors. The freshmen and sophomores especially showed that they are able to organize, and some of them give promise of future success by the way they put on their class parties and carnival stunts. The follfiwing are the officers of the various classes: High seniors — Robert Long, president; Beatrice Bishop, vice-president; Melva Crandall, secretary-treas- urer. Low seniors — Robert Riegg, president ; John Hays, vice-president ; Edith Nefif, secretary-treasurer; and John Alden, senior court custodian. High juniors — Gordon McLachlan, president ; Wilson Erskine, vice-president ; and Opal Nicho- laides, secretary-treasurer. Low juniors — Anthony Morse, president; Marjone Miles, vice-president; John McKellip, secretary, and Stanley Phillips, treasurer. High sophomores — Cecily Jones, president; r Iary Kalbach, vice-president; and Dallas Latimer, secretary and treasurer. Low sophomores — Joe Lawry, president ; Elsworth Krough, vice-president; Robert Estes, secretary, and Barbara Ik ' llamy, treasurer. High freshmen — Luke Reed, president ; Jean French, vice-president ; and Frank Paules, secretary-treasurer. Low freshmen — Robert Ethen, president ; Rob- ert McKenzie, vice-presidnt ; Dorothy Green, secretary; and Madeline Jones, treasurer. 134 I35l =q tj [363 I37l And Pedro the Blood- He was a Romeo. He swore he could drink more than any landlubljer afloat ; And as for dancing. He was the best dancer outside of Davy ' s Locker. That was in 1702 tho . . . He landed in a cabaret.

[3 Cutlass and Dirk The Commissioners The ship ' s cabin as quarters of the five commissioned iifficers for this year ' s cruise has daily been a scene of .Ljreat activity and bustle, and its five all-powerful in- mates. Cap ' n Haehl, Dollar-master Woodworth, First- mate Miller, Bos ' n Dengler, and Chief Cook and Bottle- washer Moore, have issued and enforced orders with un- tiring zeal, tact, and sincerity. To Cap ' n Haehl fall first honors, and as commander of the good ship Student Body, he has kept his helm straight and steered her thru rough seas so loyally and thus so successfully that not a sign of trouble arose from the fo ' castle and truly the scribe feels not a whit in doubt when he suggests that Cap ' n Bud Haehl is one of the best, most conscientious, most efficient, and liest liked all around skippers that Paly has ever seen. Dollar-master Ed Woodworth, with his bunk slung fearlessly in front of the big chest at the rear of the caljin has managed the financial end of the cruise. Not once were our hidden treasure disturbed, and all silver exchanged for wages and grub was dutifully kept track of and accounted for to the last guinea. The sale of clearance papers, too, was in Dollar-master Woodworth ' s hands, and this year almost one hundred per cent of the crew bought their cards. The First-mate, Norm Miller, representing the Power of the Press, was the most pious man aboard. To him fell the duty of compiling and issuing the weekly log. which was brought more up to date this year by the establishment of its weekly appearance as a permanent feature. Bos ' n I ut Dengler, the Beau Brummel of the offi- cer ' s cabin, proved in a big way his ability as a manager. His greatest contribution to the ship was the idea of fewer and better rallies, and it was also thru his efforts that the name of Vikings was adopted as a name for the ship ' s chess and poker teams. As for the Chief Cook and Bottle Washer of the cruise, a hard working, more efficient and more devoted (ifficer could not have been chosen to manage the affairs of the Amazons than Betty Moore. She has worked hard to make all newcomers feel at home and to acquaint them with the customs and activities of the ship. She has done much in the way of charity and it is due chieflv to her efforts that the Mothers ' Tea was such a success. Yo-ho and a cup of tea ! Uo} Thespian Club Anotlicr successful ear fur the Thespian Cluh has f one l)y. Being one of the oldest and most po]nilar organizations of the school has onlv served to strengthen its menihership, and conse(|uently its productions have benefited. There are several features on the Thesj)ian calendar that are especially interesting, among which are the property day and the initiations. ( )n the annual propertv day everyone brings discarded clothing or knicknacks for the pro])ertv room. This year the initiations have been a great improvement over those of rdst vears. for now one ct)ul(l call tiiem truly dramatic initiations, what with all the contortions the neo- phytes have to undergo. The Thespian Chili ' s first productions of the vear included the two one-act plavs : Mary ' s Lamb and The Neighbors. The annual Christmas gift to the school was Christmas Revels. a plav dealing with the uletide customs in Merrie England, and including mo t of the members of the club. This tyjie of play was a departure from the customarv Christmas plays, which have all been of a serious natm-e. . Thopian ]ilay always adds zest to the Jolly-ups. and the two l)lays jjresented this year were The .Man from Brandon. and The Little liluffer. The three-act jjlay is the club ' s greatest venture. Xew Brooms was this year ' s choice — a delightful comedy of a typical American home and familv. It was aided by an able cast. The success of ' I ' hespian Cluii ' s productions lias been made possible through the tireless efforts of Miss Preston as director, and Miss McKee as head of the art department. The officers of the Thespian Club for the year 1928-29 were: Veva Jane Haehl, president; June Reynolds, vice-president; Robert Riegg, treasurer; and Harriet Bellamv, secretarv. f4.ll QirW League The Girls ' League, during the last year, was one of the most important organiza- tions in the school. Lfnder the excellent direction of Miss Preston and President Betty Moore the year has been very suc- cessful. The meetings that were held every other Monday were most enjoyable and enter- taining. .Some very interesting speakers such as Doctor Reynolds and IMrs. Heller were procured for the meetings. Miss Mary Yost, dean of women at Stanford University gave a speech describing her line of work and answered all questions from the girls who were planning to go to college. In addition to carrying out this charity work, the Girls ' League has very success- fullv carried on its customary activities. In the fall the annual Girls ' Jinx was pre- sented and it was a great sticcess. The Girls ' Masquerade was a brilliant affair and all the girls that attended had a won- derful time. The costumes were unusu- ally original and clever. To finish the list of activities of the year, the Mothers ' Tea was the greatest success of all. This affair always helps to promote a closer relation between the teachers and the mothers. Betty Moore, as president of the Girls ' League, has worked unceasingly and suc- cessfully to better the Girls ' League. No job has ever been too large for her, and with the help of Helen Allison, the secre- tary of the Girls ' League, she has suc- ceeded fullv in carrying out the aims of the organization.

Organized in 1 ' ' _ ' 4, the i-eague struggled through a hectic and rather douhtful first year. The following year was more encouraging hut the societ) ' was still in its infancy, still too young to attempt anything more amliitious than a I ' lOys ' Smoker. Neverthe- less, it was ra])idly gaining momentum. After two years under the very able guidance of Jack Schutte, the League attained a standard beyond the fondest hopes of its founders. P ut well may we be ])roud of the achiexements of the Boys ' League this year! It may be truth- fully said that the Boys ' Leagtie of 1928-1929 has exceeded its fine record of the two previous years. This is indeed a praiseworthy accomplish- ment, and Herman Estes is to be congratulated for his splendid record as president of an organ- ization which now holds such an enviable po- sition among school societies. The boys, too, have shown a splendid spirit in attending the meetings. The Boys ' Stunt Show, substituted for the usual Smoker and presented on April 20, is the most ambitious ]M-oduction yet attemjited by the I)oys ' League. The funds derived from the show were donated to a worthy cause : that of jjurchasing tmi forms for the band. The evening ' s entertainment, consisting of skits, music, dancing, tumbling and various other stimts, was very well received. The success of the show was due in a great extent to the untiring, unceasing efforts of President Herman Testes, . gain we congratulate you, Herman! The officers of the Boys ' League for the ])ast ear were : Herman Estes, president ; (Gordon .McLachlan, vice-president; Fred Fowler, secre- tary-treasurer ; Paul Buss, sergeant-at-arms. I43l The Qirls ' Qlee Cluh 1 ' ' ! IE GiKLs Glee Club, nuniljeriny about twenty memljers, has enjoyed very busy and a very successful year. Officers for the year were Secil Davies, president; Elsie Cardoza, secretary; and Miss Wenk, faculty advisor. The first event in which the Glee Chib participated was the Girls ' Jinx, and its stunt was one of the high-lights of the evening. Then came the Glee Club Dance which commendablv upheld its reputation of being one of the big dances of the year, decorations suggesting a winter scene with Christmas trees covered with snow and rain and set off by colored flood-lights. About one Inmdred couples were present and enjoyed a good orchestra, good refreshments, and a general good time. The Operetta, Pickles, was, of course, the big event of the year for both Glee Clubs, and three girls ' choruses and all the girls ' leads were selected from the members of the Glee Club. Miss Wenk, as faculty advisor to the Glee Club, super- vised the girls ' choruses, and together with Mr. Matthews, aided greatly in making the Operetta the huge success that it was. The Carnival Stunt brought to a close the Girls ' Glee Clul s program for the year 1928-1929. Five members of the Glee Club were accepted in the Bay Section Chorus : Secil Davies, Eloise Brann, Elsie Cardoza, Lina Allen, and Gertrude Blackwelder. So, with such a hard-working, enthusiastic group, we can look forward to some real developments and entertainments for the year 1929-1930. i44: The Boys ' Qlee Club 7 ixETEEN TWENTV-NiNE has Ijccn a great year for the Boys ' Glee Club Starting at the beginning of the year with five or six members, the first tryouts increased the membership to about twenty. Officers chosen at the first of the year were: John Hays, president: Francis Michener, vice-president; Kol)ert King, secretary-treasurer; and faculty advisor, Mr. Matthews. The (ilee Club this year, as every year, joined in with the rest of the Music De- partment in their main production, the Operetta, I ' ickles, contributing all of the men ' s leads and most of the three male choruses, a very few outsiders (members of the chorus class) being admitted to fill the ranks to the required number. It was also the members of the Glee Club that did all the flat-painting this year. Besides the ( )i)eretta, the Glee Clul) presented one of the best stunts in the Boys ' Show and furnished unusual entertainment at some of the rallies. Eight members of the Glee Club were chosen to participate in the Bay Section Chorus of about four hundred voices which sang at the Principal ' s Convention in San Francisco, March 27. And as this was a picked chorus of the best of all Bay Section schools, the Glee Club is proud to have been able to continue such a fine a fine delegation to represent Paly at this event. Those chosen included ; Walter Norris, Francis Michener and Kenneth Davies. So in looking back in review over the past year ' s work with a justified satisfac- tion, we of the 1929 Glee Club wish, first of all, to express our gratitude to Mr. Matthews, under whose friendly and heli)ing guidance we have worked during the year; and secondly, we feel able to truthfully say that interests in the Glee Club as an organization and as a part of the school have grown so rapidly that we can safely predict an even more prosperous year for the 1930 Boys ' Glee Club. Us} Forum Club IN looking back over the activities this year of the Forum Ckib, we find that this organization was unusually successful in carrying out its aims. The stu- dent body as a whole has become more interested in the Forum Club as is shown by the number of people that succeeded in the fall and mid-year tryouts. Many of these new debaters have proved themselves a great benefit to the society. The aim of the Forum Club is to have all its members debate at some time dur- ing the year. Although it is impossible for each member to figure in debates with other schools, every one has a chance in some of the meetings in which are held inter-club debates. The Forum Club held a triangle debate with Redwood and Santa Cruz during the winter. We lost both debates by a decision. The initiations that took place at the high school were most successful and en- joyable. Much credit is due to the president, Alvin Harroun, and to the other officers : Robert King, the vice-president ; and Jack Jernegen, the secretary-treas- urer. Mr. Mclnnis should be given a great deal of credit, also, for the help and able direction he has given this organization and its mem])ers. With such success in this last year in the future, the Forum Club is sure to be- come more interesting and instructive for those who are interested in debating. f461 The Paly High Literary Magazine I y ] f N li r. r.ily Hit,di Literary .Ma.nazine is the first periodical of its type to make an apiiearance in this scliool, and although the word periodical does not as yet exactly suit the temperament of our brain child, we are h()i)in,L; that it will .urow into it. When the Magazine made its initial ap- pearance last year, we found that it made quite a hit with our student body, and we sold about one hundred copies (all hand bound, mind you). Our desk space overflowed with excellent contributions and we were often conscience-stricken when compelled to return some little poem or other piece that really deserved a jilace be- tween the covers but could not be used for some reason invariably misunderstood by the author. ' J o make for fair play, we instituted a rule that no person was to have two articles in the .same issue. The only reason that the magazine made onlv two or three showings last year was due to the immense amount of labor involved. This year we got what one might call a fresh start. We got .some one to cut our cover title from linoleum, so we could jirint the covers. This, while slow, was lightning .siieed compared to the hand painting method, and it made for jileasant uniformity in appearance. . nd the faculty was liecoming more and more interested. They liked to see their modest efforts admired, as they justly were. So far, so good. I ' .ut watch us grow from now on! . nd remember, the more support you give to anything in the school, the bigger and better it will be. The Literary ALagazinc has worthy intentions and is deserving of worthv encourage- ment. f47l The Co-op Store I 1 ■ HE Co-operative Store counts this year as its most successful, since it started, not, possibly, from the viewpoint of actual money profits, but certainly from that of service and growth. During the four years of its existence, the Co-op has grown into one of the most unique and vital institutions of the school. Started during 1925-26 at the present Lost-and- Found Counter, it was sponsored by the Forum Club and immediately enjoyed a small success, though its stock was limited almost entirely to paper and binders. Since then it has expanded steadily in volume of stock and trade, to such a degree, that it outgrew its affiliation with the Forum Club after the first year, and has ever since been an independent organization. Last year the inadequacy of its quarters became so acute that a new store was necessary. The present roomy, well-arranged store across from the library was moved into during the first quarter last year. Stationery supplies have before constituted practically the sole stock of the store, but this year has seen not only the expansion of these and classroom supplies but also the introduction of a limited line of sporting goods and other general articles. In the future it is planned that the equipment of the store will include a more and more unlimited scope, until eventually it will become something of a general utility store where stationery, athletic, classroom, or miscellaneous supplies may be bought. This year has also seen a general lowering of prices, made possible because the store ' s remarkable growth allows it to deal almost exclusively with large retail houses. The progressive policy of Alvin Harroun, the graduating manager, and his stafT of assistants has been largely responsilile for the advances made this year that have helped the Co-op to become more firmly fixed than ever in its unique niche as an organization purely of convenience and service. :48i T Board 0 Atfi etic Control K ]f HF. Hoard of Atliletic Control has now been in existence for two years, and in these two years it has taken a place in the school that cannot l)e filled by anv other ori ' anization. Coach Hod Ray formed this board last year to handle ])roblenis about lioys ' athletics which had lieen formerly dealt with by the Commissioner of Boys ' Athletics, the coaches, and the Boys ' League. The board this year has had on its list Bud Shreve, Frenchy Lacombe, Toby McLachan, Fred Fowler, and jack Tipton, captains respectively of foot- ball, basketball, baseball, track, and swimming teams. Besides these men, all other team captains and managers, and the yell leaders are numbered among its mem- bers. Put Dengler, being Commissioner of Boys ' Athletics, is chairman, and Bob Baxter is secretary. Jack Jernegan holds the position of advertising manager. All these men meet every Monday noon to settle various difficulties that have come up during the week about conduct at games, awards, etc., or which might come up during the next week. One very important thing which the Board of . thletic Control has done this year is to change the block letters. It decided early in the year to substitute chenille let- ters for the old felt ones. This change permits the washing of sweaters with letters on them without the fear of enlarging the letters two or three times. Besides this, these new blocks are better looking, and are a good example of Paly ' s up-to-date spirit. Another thing the board did was the holding of a contest for a team name. .After many difficulties, the name Vikings was selected. The various captains on the board are repre.senatives of their respective teams; anything which their teams need during the season is brought up by them at the board meetings. I49l ' m .yf Block P Society I mi - shi E Block P Society is representative of the best athletes in Paly. Its members are Paly ' s heroes, the fellows who bring home so many champion- ships. To earn a block is the aim of every boy in school. This organization policed games during the whole year, and for that reason rival teams and rooting sections have carried away from here a spirit of friendship for Paly. Besides policing games, the society has directed traffic in the halls and watched the stairways, to see that the rule put into effect a couple of years ago is obeyed. In doing these things, the society has accomplished its purpose, to pro- mote a spirit of honor and cooperation among the athletes of the Palo Alto Union High School, to support school spirit, and to aid the principal and the coaches of the school in any manner deemed advisable. At the mid term initiation, many new football letter-men were admitted. After seeing these men hobble about the halls the day following the initiation, one can imagine that it was successful, and that the neophytes came away with the proper knowledge of how important the organization is. Toward the latter part of the year, the Block P men decided that they wanted to remember the organization by something which would mean a great deal to them in later years. This all culminated in the purchase ot Block P pins. The pins are formed by a rectangular gold piece, with a raised silver shield, superim- posed bv a red P, and a background of green stripes. The Block P Society this year put on a dance which had a very large attend- ance. The good spirit and much shown enthusiasm proved it to be one of the most successful dances of the year. Officers for the year were as follows : John Alden, president ; Lloyd Sublett, vice-president ; and Paul Buss, sergeant-at-arms. 50J Qircle ' T Society If N HE Circle P Society is definitely a part of the school-spirit as much as IT I any other organization; it would seem strange to the students if we did not • have it. It is comparatively young, only four years old, and several of the charter nicniliers are still in school. The organization has four main ohjectives: first, to hring the minor sports ' athletes together ; second, to promote interest in minor sports ; third, to raise the standards of spcjrtsmanshi]). and fourth, to hetter the scholarshij) of the athletes. Any student possessing a minor letter may helong to the society. These letters are awarded in B, C and D hasketliall ; B, C, and D track ; B hasehall, and in tennis and swimming. ' J he llO ' s haskethall furnished a goodly number of new recruits to the Circle P this year. . lso quite a few track stars will join its ranks as a result of their prowess in the P. . . L. meet. . s usual, the swimming team came through with several neophytes. This year, as in other years, the numbers of the society have policed at footliall and b:isketball games and have guarded cars. The guarding takes in other things besides just watching the autos. One of them is the turning in the names of the second-time offenders to the B. A. C. The organization also has furnished the school with parking signs, etc. Officers for the year were Phil Christensen, ])resident, and Tony Morse, sec- retary-treasurer. John Kitasako was elected president and Phil Christensen vice- president. Init John had to quit school for a while on account of sickness and Phil automatically stepped into his office, and when John came back to school he was offered his old job, he declined, .saying that he had too much work to make up. These officers have given much of their time toward bettering the society, and if the Block P Society doesn ' t take too many numbers away from the minor Utter organization it will have many more successful years. Cs ' l QirW Athletic Association The Girls ' Athletic Association has been very active this year. It has decided many important questions which have come up concerning girls sports. IMost of the questions pertaining to after school sports were settled in the meetings. One of the manv questions that was settled was that the all-star team should be chosen in a way similar to the manner in which college all-star teams are chosen. Questions as to the number of points to be awarded to the players and whether we should count scholarship were just a few problems that this organization settled. From the money that was raised by the presentation last year of When the Piper Played, by the girls in the various physical education classes, the Girls ' Athletic Association was able to buy red sweat shirts. They will be used only in after school sports. Several very successful and enjoyable playdays have been participated in, here and at other schools by the Association ' s members. Among the playdays that have been most interesting was one given for all the Girls ' Athletic Associations on the Peninsula by the girls of the University of California. This year there has been a great increase in the Girls ' Athletic Association blocks that have been given out. Most of the girls that are interested in after school sports take an active part in the G. A. A. meetings. The Association is controlled by an e.xecutive board which is composed of the officers and seven sport heads. The officers this year were Caretta Miles, president ; Frances Hurd, first vice-president ; Barbara Bellamy, second vice-president ; and Barbara Binns, secretary. The girls that were heads of sports were Roberta Evans, hockey ; Mildred Butts, volley ball ; Madeline Berg, basketball ; Ruth Casey, base- ball ; Marjorie Miles, swimming; Marion Matravers, hiking; and Louise Palmer, tennis. The heads of sports arrange the games in that sport and record the number of points each member of all the teams has earned. These people also help to arrange playdays with other schools in their sports. 5 The Spanish Chih (he [ r 1 1 ic (.•lul tit this yx-.ir iiiarks tlie end of ri very siiccesstul cjiu- lor (he I Spanish C ' hil). It is the close of the tifth year of its existence, and it I lias now lieconie a (irmly estal)lished organization of the school. It is not dil ' licult to (ilit.iin meniliership in the chili : no tr outs are necessarv. .Stndenis of Spanish and anyone otherwi. ' -e interested in Spanish are elifjihle fur nieinliership. The cliil) is not confined to the nieinhers of any class. Meetings are held rei;n]ai ] ' . senii-nionihl -, and diiriiiL; the noon hour. The aim of the cliih is twofold: to provide a further opportunity for students to speak the language and to hear it spoken, and to give them a hetter understanding of the lives and customs of the Spanish-speaking peoples. The aim is well accom- plished in the meetings in which little plays, dialogues, and talks are given. Almost any suhject concerning Sj)anish countries is exceedingly interesting and it has heen found that the work done in the cluh is, also. . t times the organization has heen very fortunate in securing speakers who spoke in connection with Spanish-speaking countries. The officers (jf the organization for the year were Elsie Nissen, president, and Frances George, secretary-treasurer. Mrs. Guerrero, faculty advisor, has helped the organization in many ways, and a great deal of credit is due her. The Latin Cluh UXDKK the ahle and enthusiastic Dictatorship of Harhara Iiellaniv. the Senatus Populu.sque Romanus again resumed its place as one of the most active and worthwhile of the less prominent organizations in the school. Meetings were held regularly; and, in accordance with the definitely educational aim of the cluh, short informative talks, prepared by the students, were usually the feature of the meetings. The already substantial mem- bership remaining from last year was greatly increased by the admission of over twenty freshmen and new students at the end of the first quarter. Membership in the club is open to any Latin student who has received at least a grade of 3 the quarter preceding. Transfer students and associate members who have had two years of Latin are also admitted. ( )wing to Miss Clary ' s severe injury and consequent absence, several ambitious plans had to be abandoned, but these will doul)tlessly be taken up again next vear. Possibilities of the club ' s presenting its usual Carnival stunt were also checked. But despite these unfortunate circumstances, this year may be counted as the most successful in point of interest that the club has enjoved within the three or four years past. Following are the ofificers who served this year: Dictator. Barbara Bellamy; First Consul, Beatrice Bishop, Louise Palmer (second semester) ; Second Consul, Joe Lawry; (Jusestor, .Mice King; Censor, Rosemary Corkery ; freshman repre- sentative, Coburn Palmer. f53l ' .;:i;;;;i!!i: ' ;! ! M: ' ' ' It: « ' ■ Q O .v« ' - ? mm: iilMlflgfi y . ' She ' Siand 1 ■ HE band this year has proved more and more that it is a real, active part of the Student Body. Besides fulfilHng its indispensable duty at rallies, games and assemblies, the band was an active participant in such occa- sions as the Boys ' Show and the Mid-year graduation. Its chief concern this last year, besides, of course, the State Band contest, was the movement to buy uniforms for the entire personnel, the membership numbering about fifty. This was a big undertaking for one year, but aided by a benefit program at the Mayfield Theatre, a repeat performance of the Operetta, Pickles, the Boys ' Show and other sources of income, quite a sizable amount was raised, and with the acquisition of new tiniforms, the Paly Band can hold its own at the head of the other Peninsula bands in appearance as well as in playing ability. The uniforms chosen consist of a red and green cape and a cap, white pants being furnished by the memliers them- selves. Due to several arising circumstances, Paly did not enter the State Band Contest this year in San Francisco, May 10 and 11. The assigned composition itself fur- nished the chief difificulty because of the incredibly hard clarinet part and the entire lack of brass, in which faculty the Paly band is fairly strong. However, with in- coming clarinet players and a new selection for the contest piece, Mr. Mathews has high hopes of entering next year, and plans to give even the larger bands plenty of opposition. 34. he Orchestra Hii.E circumstances dictate that the orchestra shall not appear l)efore the student hodv nearly as much as the hand (ima ijine the orchestra marching onto the football field with three or four cumbersome bass viols dragging dejectedly along in the dust behind!), still, as was the case last year (and we hope it will be the case for the years to come), the orchestra has proved itself far more of a real musical unit than has the band, or either of the two Glee Clubs. With the acquisition of two brand new French horns and its increased member- ship, the orchestra this year has. as a result of Mr. Matthew ' s untiring efforts, been moulded into a real first class high school symphony and as such its programs were made U]) of standard classic overtures, symphonies and concert pieces of the highest class, such com])()sitions as the First Movement of Dvorak ' s Xew World ( )verture having been worked up and presented very commcndal)l -. Its chief C(_)ntributiiin to the high sch(}ol was in its ajipearance at Thes])ian plays, the ()])eretta, and the graduation, but it also presented .several programmes at the Community House and was a participant in the other community activities. Two members of the orchestra were sent to the Bay Section one-hundred-and-twenty- five-piece Symjihony which played at the Principal ' s Convention in San Francisco, March 27; Betty Moser, violin: and Doris Brister, bass-viol. One of the orchestra ' s important performances took place during the Thanksgiv- ing vacation when an enlarged orchestra of about sixty pieces journeyed up to San Jose to play on the last day of Teachers ' Institute. The numbers played were the Anthony and Cleopatra Suite by Gruenwald ; and comments upon the feeling and maturity with which it was rendered proved it to have been one of the outstanding features of the wlmle institute.

In fact, he had devoted the greater part of the last fifteen vears to a typical, elderly man ' s life of ease, supported hy a squeak- ingly-comfortahle old rocking chair and persistent cheeriness from a dirty hrick fireplace. Friends, chatty persons like himself, kept the little home ' s dingy parlor constantly full of parley during the day, and at night a handsome collie dog re- monstrated to the heavy fog engulfing him from the ocean. And again, old Holi- waine should have been satisfied on this sunny day of June, seventeen hundred and something — but. queer-like, he was not. The crude melody of the brass knocker on the door sounded. Enter, friend Bojer! I know ' tis you by the l)eating you give that knocker. Bojer, the hale, heartv and aged Norwegian, ushered himself inside and to the side of the crackling fire. Captain, my talk today is diflferent from that of many days gone by — the days that we dealt with in the style of old men gossiping. This day, my message is of a life we both knew once and have never quite forgotten. This morning, as I walked along the ocean side, a queer sensation crept into my being. Memories started working over me as though I were a dying man, dying in the ugly life of a land- lubber, and memories were trying to save me and bring me back to consciousness and life, with great blue waves and foreign ports. I walked until I came to the sandy path which for so many years has led to my little house on the clifT. No sooner had I turned into that path when I felt, very earnestly, the beg of a long time ago. When I reached the doorstep and was forced to look upon the house — it was so stationarv. I remembered the fifteen years I had daily stepped to and from that same foolish spot. Captain, I — and — you, we should be far otit past those foaming breakers, out bossing a happy clipper ship — you the captain, me the first mate. My message today is this, We, two funny old men, are going to sea once more ! ' Twentv days from Salem town, and maybe the wind knew how many days ' till the good ship White Sails might reach the docks at Liverpool. There had been rough waters, smooth waters, stormy days, and days when queer, ugly sailors would rest their eves on the big red chariot as it slowly slipped down past the great blue horizon. But every day resembled the return of lost gold in the glad minds of the captain and first mate. The lash of the storm, the slap of the sunlight, and when the silence of the night was injured only by the rush of the sea from the boat — it was all part of the joy retrieved from fifteen years of absence. Then, one dav. Mart started to work. Mart was a new memlier of the crew, Vmt that fact didn ' t improve his api earance. His face was as irregular and filthy as was his clothing, and his stealthy manner of action completed the living image of II58I a ni.niitinare. Xunierous scars, a swayint;- stride and a consjjicuous averseness to convcrsalion. siicli were a few of the man ' s characteristics that furnished cause for considrrahle th(in,L;lu aninni; the (ither sailiirs. Consequenllw cm this certain even- inj -, when .Mart (iiiietly ascended to the top of tlie cabins with a shiny oil lam]), every man on the sliip, except one, wondered for wh;it purpose he was U]) there. Twelve o ' clock, however, witnessed the lantern ;uid its possessor still perched atcjp the cal)ins and if twelve o ' clock had been keen of sight, it migiit have seen the lamp ' s westw-ard rays lieint;- shielded at almost rej ular intervals. Mart waited — no, not for the sand-man, hut for a — Sail llo! .Sail llo! )n deck there, men ! Hack the cannons ! The jolly Roger is on us. jolly Roger! Tli;it name was sufticient to j.-ir any man ' s famil - tree, and when those words pierced the eardrums of the White .Sails, action and cussing were s])ontaneous as lightning. ' J ' he splintery deck was soon Ijristling with armed sailors. In an eijually hrief time the thundering gang from the ])irate ship was jumping on hoard the craft, and slashing and shooting and showing their skilful force. The battle lasted (as all good battles should) a long while, and many snarling seamen had relinquished their stubborn fight before lack of opposition permitted the pirates to cease battle, and start counting their profit and loss. And an ex- perienced man at doing that type of counting was Mart, better known to the rolibing crew of the Jolly Roger as their worthy chief. Mart walked as he might kick a sack of sand — h do these plaguy dogs disturb my way? Then he turned to his smiling companion. Fellow, now we ' ll go see the captain of this stupid craft and receive the jewels that he intended to deliver to the merchant in London. Then we ' ll board our ship and ' way lo another wave. The two walked on till they reached the ca])tain ' s cabin. Thev entered. Mart spoke. I ' ll take those jewels now. I have no jewels. I ' ll take them now, okl man ! You are mistaken. I have — Three chances to get ' em, vou liar! One! Two! Woof — woof, woof. The handsome collie dog wanted in — oh, just for a little while, in by the side of the fire. Uh, uh-h-h — that was an interesting dream. Yes. in fact, it was getting too interesting near — my, I must let that noisy cur inside before he tears that door ofT its hinges. .And I guess I am too old to .sail on that big old water otn there again, and — . . . .And Captain John Holiwaine was .sati. tied with his lire and his friends and the squeaky old chair.

June 13: Crossed the equator at noon, and are nearing our destination. The senior members of the crew initiated those who had never crossed before.

Tonight there is a dance on deck for the departing members of the crew— sailors who have sailed the seas for four long years, plundering, killing and hoarding treasures won in battles. June 14 : Sighted a small island. On close inspection it was found to be Vaca- tion. The captain is writing this entry as he is alone on board now.

Realizing that tlie success of the annual depends in its entirety upon how it is accepted by the student body, we of the staff, nevertheless, feel that the plan as a whole is a great step toward making the Madrono far more interesting and easier read. We of the staff wish to express our sincerest appreciation and gratitude to the Art Department of the school, to the DeForrest Studio of San Francisco, and to Palmer Larson for the success of the Carnival, to each one of whom we are deeply indebted for the publication of the 1929 Madrono. f68j |69l The Campanile Changing;- a semi-monthly publication of average quality into a live, interesting, and good looking weekly newspaper, is the achievement that should be credited to this year ' s staflf of the Campanile. Under the progressive leadership of Norman Miller, editor-in-chief, and the judicious and intelligent guidance of Mrs. Ray, faculty advisor, the paper has shown a great advance in the past year and has moved up into the front rank of California high school weeklies. Backed by the knowledge gained in the newly instituted journalism classes, ]Miller and his assistants moved forward step by step from the beginning of- the year to- ward a more complete and l)etter newspaper. The first step was to cut down the amount of fiction and feature material printed in the Campanile. It was decided to keep the front page almost exclusively for news. Feature stories were relegated to the inside pages or else thrown out entirely. This made the publication more truly a newspaper and less of a magazine. Care was taken, however, not to go to the other extreme and make the paper dull. The beginning of the second semester Ijrought the biggest change in the paper since it was established. From the Christmas holidays, the Campanile was pub- lished weekly. This advance was made possible by the fine work of Brooks Whitney as business manager, and by the unusual interest of the reportorial stafif in their work. Improvement in makeup was noticed throughout the year, balanced and varied headlines being employed with good eiTect. Sports Editor Rufus Kimball led the way in this, discovering a number of new headline types which were used to ad- vantage in all parts of the paper. Mrs. Ray, liy her work in the journalistic classes, helped the editors in learning the principles of correct makeup. Even those not in- terested in journalism or the Campanile could see the improvement in the appear- ance of the paper, and that it resemliled a professional newspaper more closely. 70 1 I7il Christmas Play As its Christmas gift to the school this year, the Thespian Chili presented The Christmas Revels hy Millis Caverley, a magnificent pageant showing all the heauti- ful Christmas and Twelfth Night customs in old England. The production was full of good-natured merriment and bantering as well as the vivid pageantry and solemn grandeur of the customs. The characters were called l)y symlwlic names such as Holly and Ivy. All the customs reproduced were authentic in every detail of the six- teenth century in England. The scene was laid in the massive English manorhouse, where the festival was made up of twelve days of reveling. The play was divided into three parts, showing the customs of procedure in the Lords ' manor on Christ- mas Eve. Christmas Day, and Twelfth Night. The main characters were the Lord and Lady, their small daughter, and the jolly jester about whom the story centers. The Music Department and its orchestra played several numbers specially written for the pla} ' , and the singing of the old Christmas carols was another feature in this lovely pageant. The play had many characters, more than 50 in all, and was given in the afternoon of Friday, the 21 of December, after school, many of the townspeople attending the performance. The play was a verv elaborate one, but under the able direction of our dramatic coach, and with the help of JMarjorie Miles as the head of the property committee, the play was produced with much success. The cast was as follows : Lord, John Alden ; Lady, Caretta Miles ; Rose, Joan Wheeler; Jester, John Butler; Butler, Donald Kinkead; Martha, Laura Jean McGuire ; Meg, Edith Dietz ; Doll, Harriet Bellamy ; Susan, Dorthy Falla ; Peter, Sydney Head ; First Page, Edwin Woodworth ; Second Page, Harry Haehl ; First Yeoboy, Bob Baxter ; Second Yeoboy, Bob Brubaker ; Holly, Betty Moore ; Ivy, Betty IVIoser; Green Bearers, Veva Jane Haehl, Edith Neflf, June Reynolds, and Continued on page 79 tt72l ' New Brooms In a i, ' reat dramatic climax of the year, the Thespian Ckih presented, as its yearly three-act i)lay, Frank Craven ' s New Brooms. This play is an amusing and de- lii htful cciniedy with room for a j;reat deal of tine characterization and actint;-. The plot, of an every-day ( Init seldom heard about ) hap])enin£;, centers around two characters — the father and the son. The father, .Mr. Bates, a well-to-do broom manufacturer, is of a terriiily antagonistic and variable character. The son, Thomas Bates, Jr., on the other hand, is a genial, happy lad, just out of college, who scorns the way in which his father manages his business. He believes that his father should be more plea.sant and agreeable to his workmen and other as.sociates. In a fit of temper, the father turns his whole business over to his son to run for a year on the ]iolicy of always being pleasant to others. However, after a year of hardships and troul)le, the .son realizes that his father was right and that he, himself, is a failure. In the end this failure serves to bring ultimate happiness and understanding to both. The less important part is that of the girl who comes to seek work and is employed, by the son. as housekeeper. This character of Jerry is a sweet, lovable vet cap- able one, and it is she who helps both father and son to come to an understanding. The other characters are the daughter and sister, Ethel, and the son ' s friend. W ' ally, who carry on a little separate jjlot of their own. Florence, whom Tom, the son, is first engaged to, is another of the minor characters.

Another play, gi -en at ibe third Jolly-up, was enlillc l TIk ' Utile I ' .luffer. This charming comedy is the story of a girl who bluffs her way into a friendship, . she talks to a stranger about an author whom she has never met, onl - to tind that she is talking to the author himself. The pl;iy ends as the two go off together to dinner. The cast was composed of Joan Wlieeler. Harr ' ll:iehl, liarbara I ' inns, Jvlith Xeff. :uid John lUitler. As is customary, the Thespian Club presented two one-act plays, Neighbors and Mary ' s Kamb. The fir.st is the well known play by Zona Gale in which the kindly old neighbors tr - to help a poor friend who is expecting her sister ' s lioy to come to live with her. They do everything for her, only to find that the little bov isn ' t com- ing after all. .Also there is a little love story, entwined with the main plot, lietween a young coinitry girl and boy. ' i ' he cast consisted of Joan Wheeler. ' eva Haehl, Margaret .Strong, Harbara liinns, Majorie Miles, Erie llolstmni, and Kdwiu W ' oodworth. The second play, Mary ' s Lamb, is the story of a poor young cou])le who find some money and go to an expensive restaurant to order something that sounds fine but tui-ns out to be jilain lamb stew. ,A gentleman at the next table heljis tliem and buys them another dinner. Jii.st as they leave they find out that he is Mr. Pecott, the Lamb .Stew King. The cast was as follows: Donald Kinkead, |une Reynolds, Bob r.rub.-iker, C ' aretta .Miles, .Maiiim Slonaker, J.ack Jernegan, l- ' red bowler, and Xornian .Miller. Qirls ' Jinx The scene of the tlirls ' Jinx of L 2S was laid in liubble Land, before a castle on a hill of bubbles. ' J o entertain the King of that land, his fairy messengers sumnioneil mortals to perform before him, and if he was not entertained, surely it was not the fault of the earth dwellers. There was every type of stunt offered: the C ' beckerbo.ard (iirls. When Thev Were Very Young, showed that they were Undaunted h ' emales and afraid of no Haunted I ' ooks. Two dances, a Japanese f.anlasie, and a I ' .uck and Wing had the Gini ' mes when it came to applause, and i- ' iguratively Speaking, they both ended in a burst of glory and Sunshine. It was Better Xews than expected when it was found that the entertainment proved so successful. :75i operetta yy icKLF.s. the Operetta presented this year hy 11 under the direction of Mr. Matthews and Miss I of the high hghts of the entire year, as is show the Music Department Wenk, proved to he one shown 1iy the seat sale, which was the largest of any operetta so far, and also hy the success of the repeat performance given a week later. High spots in the Operetta itself were: the opening choruses of all three acts; the violin solo Czardas, by Monti, played by Rudolph Wicht as the gypsy violinist; the Madrigal Philosophy, a quartet sung by Gertrude Blackwelder, Elsie Cardoza, Francis Michener and Jack Rear ; and the numerous solos and duets themselves. The stage settings were quite original, especially that of the second act in which a very realistic Magic Pool was fed by a real, genuine waterfall. Costumes for the choruses were designed and made under the supervision of Mrs. Gottenburg; the three choruses themselves were made up of members of both Glee Clubs and the overture, interludes and accompaniment were furnished by the ( )peretta Orchestra, picked from the High School Orchestra. During the second and third acts, Walt Norris and Marion Smith presented corsages and a new baton to Mrs. Wenk and IMiss Gottenburg and Mr. Matthews respectively. The complete cast and their roles were: Hans, an innkeeper, Sam Shenk ; Louisa, a waitress, Robert inl)orn ; Ferri Kinski, the maiKjiron.

A huge piece of cheese cloth lirought up into three points and draped down to the sides made a very realistic tent. Pictures of nightmarish animals, many colored harrels, and a cage for the chaperones finished the effect. Refreshments of pmk lemonade and popcorn halls were served. SOPHOMORE DAXCE lanuary nineteenth was the date of the Sophomore Coimtr - h ' air. iM ' eryone came dressed appropriately for the occasion and prizes were given for the most rustic costumes. This was prohably the largest class dance of the year, for eighty members of the class were present. For a class dance they had an exceptionally fine orchestra. THE BLOCK P DANCE The block letter men are to he complimented for putting on such an unusually successful dance. The decorations were particularly elaborate and beautifully ar- ranged. White crepe paper streamers were draped from a huge cluster of balloons in the high center of the gym to the sides. Red and green streamers, as well as white, were used in the decorations. It was considered by quite a few the best dance of the year. The orchestra was exceptionally good. JOLLY-UPS This year the four Jolly-ups which have been given were, as a whole, the most successful ones that have been held for several years. This is partly due to the large and active reception committee which was working under the direction of Harry Haehl, the Commissioner of Social Welfare, who has had charge of the Jolly-ups. At the Jolly-up given on October the sixth, the dancers were entertained by a clever little play, The Man from I ' .randon. The second Jolly-up was given in honor of the N. C. S. victory, and the third was preceded by a simple but enter- taining one-act play, The Little Blufifer. FRESHMAN PARTY The Freshman Party which was held on the twentieth of October was in charge of the class president under the direction of Mr. Mercer, who entertained with stories and told the fortune of everyone there. After an informal indoor track meet and a few games, the freshmen danced. This seems to be one of the liveliest classes that has come to the school for several years. i78 jrXK )k I ' .ARX ' hAXCI ' .

CO.MMENCEMEXT O.WCE As usual, the Commencement Dance, the last social atTair put on by the seniors, was a great success. Since it was the last dance of the year, it was well attended and everyone .seemed to be having an enjoyable evening. Even if the decorations hadn ' t been as effective as the - were, the dance would have been very pretty, for formal clothes are a decoration in themselves.

The seniors rather cleaned up in the inter-class sports this car. They casilv an- nexed the footliail championsiiii), heatint, ' hoth tlie juniors and sophomores. In the l)asketl)ail play-otT they defeated the juniors easily 13-8 and finally won from th-; sophomores after a iiard foutjht hattle hy the close score of 9-8. Captain Orr sank the winiiiu}, ' hasket just as the went otT. In conclusion, we wish the coaches and teams much luck in the future and hope that the adoption of the inter-class sports system will i)rove as successful in the years t(j come as it has proven this year. I83I Football H(ii) Ray ' s Viking footl; most successful seai- I ' aly by an N. C. S Viking f()otl)all team completed the ■ason in the history of S. victory over N ' allejo m the Stanford Stadium, The Red and Green plaxed three preliminary games; they won one, tied one and l(jsl one. Thus when the I ' . A. L. race hegan, the ' 2 ' foothall material was undetermined. ISut the first league game with San Mateo utterly dispelled any fears that Iciyal supporters might have ha l for the Viking ' s .safety. The San Mateo tilt was played on our own field, and I ' ud ' s warriors were after the Bearcats ' scalps and no mistake ! They hadn ' t for- gotten tlu ' druMiing administered to them last year hy the Orange and Black. So the final score, Paly 20, San Mateo 0, raised a general riot of rejoicing from Paly rooters who have been used to defeats from this team for the last five years. There were no stars in this game ; the whole team was out there fighting t igether to win. The Sequoia contest was plaved on the Redwood hoodocj gridiron with the odds slightly in favor of the Cherokee horde. But a certain Viking pair, namely Toby and Frenchy, started throwing jiasses around, which finally resulted in a 7 to victory for Paly. The ne.xt sloop to fall under the onslaught of the Viking crew was San Jose. The Red and Green line — especially Bud and Subs — was highly instrumental in defeating these lads by a 12 to 7 score. This game earned Paly her P. A. L. title, and the team was lined up for the first ])lay-oiif game with HoUister. The fighting sons of Paly and many of her rooters journeyed down to Hollister, which awaited them in holiday attire. Hollister had tricky criss-crosses and a clever quarterljack in Gee, who was the individual star of the game. But the Vikings were just a little more tricky and clever, and smeared the Haybalers, 39 to 21. Then for the final game which determined the N. C. S. champs for 192 ' )! The Apaches from Vallejo were sounding their war whoops over in the Stanford Stadium, and the Paly lads had been warned time and again to beware of Seaborn and Baker. Maybe Vallejo was there, and maybe Seaborn and Baker were there, but that game was sixty minutes of red and green flashes. Everybody played an inspired game from captain to lowest substitute, and the city papers filled whole columns with Z ' s and I renchmen. The score? Oh yes, it was 6 to 0, but that doesn ' t begin to tell the things we did to the Apaches. That was the ' 29 football season. And we think that it ' s the greatest ever yet. Much credit is due Coach Hod Ray and Captain Bud Shreve. Toby McLachlan, captain elect, was another good reason for the Vikings ' successes. Lacombe, Zisch, Fowler, lUiss, Subletts, Orr, Whitaker, , lden, Holdstrom and Pors were the rest of the main cogs on the Paly team. IW. 1 ■7.

And Tohy had thrown a wicked pass to make the only score. Hod sent in Fred for Delhert Zisch, and poor Suhs got all mangled. And Frenchy had to leave the game to get himself untangled. George Goodall he went dashing in, his hair si)read out behind him. But among those great hig foothall guys we couldn ' t even find him.

The teams trooped to their dressing rooms, all hanged and bruised and hleei Our rooters tried to make some stunts as Boh Fraser directed, And the things they did with the red and white were better than exiiected !

The way our boys ran round their ends, it made Vallejo cry, And our stubborn line dug in its toes to stop that Seaborn gu ' . Coach Kay sent in the best he had before the whistle blew — The Red and Creen marched wp the field, another score in view. Delhert Zisdi crashed thru their guards, and scramliled lines like eggs.

Hod danced in ecstasv, Toby (lid a Highland Fling, and the whole school m;ide whoopee! I87I Basketball TARTiNG the season of 1928-29 with five veterans, Palv ' s hopes for championship were hright. As it turned out, Coach Howard Ray developed a team which made a record for other Paly teams to set as their goal. The Vikings finished the (jreliminary season with a clean slate, having won all their games hy a large margin. The opening game of the league season with Sequoia dedicated our new gym hefore a large crowd. This game was very exciting and proved to be the closest game of the entire season. Burlingame and San Jose were vanquished with little difficulty, closing the first round of the P. A. L. League. The last game with San Jose gave the rooters a scare, but the game ended with a score of 19-6 in favor of Paly. This gave Palo Alto the 6th P. A. L. Champion- ship in succession. The semi-final game at Monterey was very close during the first half, possibly because of the small court. However, in the second half. Paly opened up and the final score was 24-8 in our favor. The last game was with the Highlanders of. Piedmont who had (juite an im- pressive record. The start of the game looked liked a walk-away for the Vikings but their opponents, liy fighting hard, soon closed the gap in the score. From then on the game was a nip-and-tuck. As the gun went off the game stood 25-21 and another N. C. S. was won. Captain Frenchy Lacombe proved to be a good leader. He was highpoint man in every game but two — an enviable record. Toby McLachlan and Red Misen- heimer were a pair of guards that were hard to beat ; Sublett ' s height proved very effective under the l)asket and also in getting the jump; and Bud Shreve turned out to be a very good running mate for Captain Lacombe, pulling several games out of the hole by well-timed shots. The rest of the squad worked hard and showed up favorably when they saw action and it was due to their hard work that the first string team developed into such an all around, smooth-working machine. Prospects for another P. A. L. League Championship look exceedingly bright as only one man. Bud Shreve, hard-working forward, is lost through graduation. The unusuallv competent string of substitutes this year also promises to furnish plenty of experienced working material for Coach Ray to mould into another League Championship team. 88 ' o a, Iu w UJ X ' ■J J I89I l9o} And Another Redskin Bit the Dust Tlie liall called raiuk-monium was Imilt hy a .tjans ' of devils; ' Twas a lars e and s])acious edifice where Satan held his revels.

The Cherokees war-wlu)ope(l around, and even Grit? confessed That, beside the Paly warriors his team did look undressed. Tom Shine ' s a dandy forward, and hope for Redwood dawned. But Frenchy scored the first for us. and squelched the little blond. The (juarter ' s score was nine to three, but theirs would soon be double ; Cherokees are hard to beat, and we had injun trouble. It wasn ' t very long until we led by only two — There were loud expostulations; yelled P ' renchy. .Sacre blool (This would have sent Miss Cramer into frenzy and des])air, I ' or one says lileu and nothing else. Look in Fraser and Squair). And thus the half was ended. For victory we insisted. lUit the score-board in the corner had left our necks all twisted. Between the halves the Vikings must have eaten dynamite, While Redwood swore to make a mess of everv Palv-ite. We, being who we are. aren ' t (|uite sure what they said. I ' ut the new gym was .soon dri])ping with ]nirple, green, and red. Both teams were set to dedicate that gym for Paly High; The ensuing scrap was fiercer than old Herman ' s orange tie. W ' hat was most alarming was that we were not on top; Sequoia was two points ahead, and didn ' t want to stop. . nd Jack and lUid and Wilho did their best to raise the score. Because he ' d made so many fouls. l)e Lacy was chucked out. The score was all too even, and the finish was in doubt. We thought it looked like Paly ' s game uiitil the final rally ; They almost grabbed it from us then. l)ut — Injuns can ' t beat Paly ! If our (jld friend. Father Time, hadn ' t been so awfullv kind. The dedication nu ' ght have left the Vikings far behind. But Paly had to win it, and we knew the Vikings MUST. The score was nineteen-twentv ; another redskin bit the dust ! I9il Baseball f ' . iTARTiNG off the season on the wrong foot, the Vikings ' unlimited l aseliall team went through its season with a rather unenviable record. The first game of the season, a league game with Sequoia, was played without the services of Skipper Toljy and several other players who were at the time still playing basketball. Poor hitting caused our down- fall— 7-0. The San Jose game was hotly contested, the winner being in doubt up to the last inning. This game was a hard game to lose as Paly was in the lead the whole game excejjt the first and ninth innings. Numerous er- rors was the cause of this defeat which ended, San Jose 5, Paly 4. A series of two games was lost to Mountain View, 2-1 and 4-1. Paly was unable to hit the opposing pitcher, and at the same time was unable to keep the prune pickers from scoring. The game with the Santa Clara Preps developed into a slug fest, numerous hits being made by both sides. Paly came through to win this game by the score of 13-5. The Half Moon Bav series of two games was won by Hod ' s boys with the scores of 4-0 and 12-8. In the last inning of the last game, the seasiders nearly overcame the Vikings ' lead of eleven runs. The second game with Sequoia at Redwood was won l y the home boys, 9-5. Paly got as many bingles as the Indians but couldn ' t shove as many runs across the plate. The twelve bases that were stolen by Sequoia during the afternoon proved to be their margin of victory. Paly sent her nine to Fremont for the final game of the season. After a hard battle, the Cupertino team won, 3-2. The 1929 season wasn ' t as disastrous as it sounds. C)ne must consider that the opening game of the season was played during the basketball season and that many of the games were won bv our opponents in the last inning. Inability to hit in the pinches was the main fault of the team the whole season. The squad was made up of Captain Toby MacLachlan, Stan Phillips, Robertson, Erickson, Carpenter, Whittaker. La Combe, Misenheimer, Shreve, Baracchi, Shenk, Shaw, Harold McLaughlin, Suliletts, Vorrath, Maderos, Rankin, Arjo, Bramwell, and Bishop. Of these, we will lose, through graduation, Captain Mac- Lachlan, Carpenter, Shreve, Shenk, McLaughlin, Vorrath, Bramwell, and Bishop. While this leaves a goodly number of vacancies to fill, next season is next season and we feel confident that Coach Hod Ray will follow his rule and develop a baseball team which can offer plenty of ojiposition to any team in the P.

L. f92l rJ CO f IX1 PQ . - z K o O OS g w, OS 5 |93 3 Track EGiNNiNG the season with a lot of green material, Coach George Stewart developed a track team that. held its own during the whole season. The only lettermen retained from last year were Captain Fred Fowler and Nakamura. The extent of progress was shown when enough point winners were developed to score 42 points in the P. A. L. meet, only thirteen Ijehind San Jose. The first dual meet of the season was held with Sequoia at Redwood and was won hy the Vikings hy a score of 80-42. The following Saturday Alameda met Captain Fred Fowler and his hoys on the Stanford oval. The visitors emerged on the long end of a 69-53 count. The best times of the day were made by Fowler, who ran the century in 10:2 and an Alameda man who won a fast mile. On March 23, Burlingame met the Paly tracksters. The meet was too close for comfort and the fight for points was keen. However, when the relay was finished, Paly had won the meet 61 -60 . Al Norgard represented Paly at the Lowell Relays and took a second in the shot. On April 6, Paly was set back at the hands of San Jose at Reed Field. The meet was closer than was expected, however, the final score lieing 78-42. The next week end the Vikings journeyed over to Santa Cruz to enter a three cornered meet with Santa Cruz and Hayward. The meet was very close, Hayward winning from Palo . lto liy one-half a point. Santa Cruz brought up the rear twenty points liehind. On the afternoon of April 27. the P. A. L. meet was held on the old oval. This meet brought out verv keen competition, several records being tied and one broken. Paul Buss threw the spear 162 feet 9 incheS:to set a new mark in this event, while Fowler tied the record in the 220. Point winners in this meet were as follows : Fowler first in 100 and 220, Buss first in the javelin, Goodall first in the broad jump. Silvertson first in high hurdles and second in high jump, Holstrum second in shot and third in discus. Lacoml)e second in javelin, ' eaver fourth in low hurdles, Francis fourth in 440, and Smith fourth in 220. Captain F owler was the inspiration of the team ; he won the 220 in every meet and lost the 100 only once. Much credit must also be given to Coach Stewart, whose patience and labor were almost rewarded with a P. A. L. championship. The point winners of the season are Fowler, Buss, Goodall, Silvertson, Hol- strum, Lacombe, Weaver, Smith, Francis, Nakamura, Osmont and Edwards. I94l -I -A - ' c 2 i y.

The credit for that goes to Coach George Stewart and Captain Bob Rankin. Stewart started with a ' hunch of quite green material and couldn ' t get the team whipped into shape by the beginning of the season. After that, he seemed to find trouble in getting a starting line-up : the same bunch of fellows didn ' t start two games during the whole season. The thirties ' primary game took place in our new gym ; it was played with Sequoia, and the Cherokees won by a score of 17-8, despite the scrap put up by the Norse- men. After that beating, they improved a lot and almost defeated Burlingame the following week; the final score was 16-15. Captain Bob Rankin and his men then invaded San Jose and gave the Purple and W ' hite aggregation the scare of their lives. Played on San Jose ' s old court, the game finally ended 21-20 in favor of the southern team. In the second round, the 130 pounders were again defeated by Sequoia and Bur- lingame, but beat San Jose. The team came out onto the floor for their last game of the year with the spirit of the Vikings of old, and took their ancient rivals. Sequoia, down the line to the tune of 11-6. As has been said before. Coach Stewart seemed to have difficulty in finding steady positions for his men. In some games Tommy Aitken, one of the outstanding stars of the season, played forward ; in others, center. Eddie Defi enbaugh took turns at center and guard in the beginning of the season, but had to quit playing toward the end on account of a bad ankle. Oscar Carlson had to drop out as a result of an auto wreck. To replace these men, Stewart put Arne Anderson and Dick Misenhimer on the squad. Jack Tipton, George Goodall, Paul Jew, Ray Arjo, and Eddie Woodworth made up the rest of the squad. 196; I97l The no Pound Basketball Team HE tens fought their hardest this 3 ' ear to hring home a cliampionship. Although they didn ' t succeed, they came closer to it than our lightweights liave done before. Coach Stewart and Captain Collins brought the dimes through the season with eight out of eleven league games to their credit. Out of the three games lost, two went to San Jose and one to San Mateo. In the first league game they defeated San Jose on our court, 16-6. Next week they took on the much vaunted San Mateo Bearcats, and although they lost by 14-10, they almost upset the dope. Next, in succession, they beat Sequoia, Burlingame and South City. In the first game of the second round, San Jose took our tens down the line to the tune of 15-14. Paly came back with the old fighting spirit, and took the next four games in a row. The most important of these was with San Mateo ; our mid- gets came out on top in a hard fought battle, 17-16. At the close of the season they found themselves obliged to play San Jose for the championship. Because the last game with San Jose had taken place in our gym, we went down to San Jose. In the first half, the foe ran our boys all over the court, and the half ended with the Purple and White leading, 8-3. Paly came Ijack fighting mad and scored six points, while San Jose couldn ' t tally. With only one minute to play, the Red and Green lightweights were leading, 9-8, when Pizzo of San Jose intercepted a pass and scored the winning basket. During the initial round, the first team consisted of Don Collins and Dick Misen- heimer, guards ; A] Smithee and Bobby Ethen, forwards ; and Whoopee Jew, center. In the second round, Ed Caine replaced Smithee at right forward. These si.x men received their minor letters. The substitutes were Peewee LaCoste, Squirt Gere, Monkey Arrouzet, and Keeble III. P ' ' X . LY S . ' I rif tpi The 120 Pound Basketball Team 120 ' s were not as successful as the llO ' s this year. Winning five out f ten games, they barely missed earning their letters. Like the tens, they won the first game with San Jose, 13-11, and lost the next to San Mateo, 8-12. Against Sequoia, the Paly twenties turned in their best game of the season. Knowing that the Cherokees were doped to win, the Red and Green started right off fighting, and outplayed Sequoia from the start. The final score was 23-13. This victory gave them the pep to defeat Burlingame and South San Francisco. In the second round, our 20 ' s lost the first four games, and won the last with South City. The main players were Captain Bob Baxter, who played a consistent game throughout, and Ed Woodworth, star center : the fight was supplied by Sid Vander- voort, forward, and Swede Johnson, sturdy guard. Other players were Hansen, Burgess, Kalbach, Carr, Estes, and Christiensen. tt98l Lighu tweight Track UK lightweight track men, although they did not win any championships, showed up very well this year. Aside from winning their preliminary meets, they took second place in both the 130 and 110 pound P. A. L. meets. The 120 ' s took a fifth in theirs. 130 POUXD TRACK The 130 pound track team, from which the material for next year ' s unlimited team must come, went through a fairly successful season. The P. A. L. meet was the only important one they lost. George Goodall and Caljaluna took care of the dashes. Tommy George, Ander- son, Nakamura, and Tom Aitken were the hurdlers. In the 880 yard run, we were represented by Ben Eaton and Ro}- StetYenson. Bob Baxter ran the 440. Percy Dawson and Luke Reed gathered points during the season in the shotput and discus throw and Tommy Aiken also was our star high jumper. Goodall, Naka- mura, Tom George and Aiken performed in the sand pit as broad jumpers. An- derson was our main pole vault man. The four-man 880 relay team was composed of Goodall, Xakamura, Calialuna and Tom George. Goodall, liesides running in the relay taking third in the 100, and tying for first in the high jump, made a record leap of 20 feet, y, inch in the broad jump, during the course of the P. A. L. meet. 120 POUND TRACK The 120 pound track team was not quite as successful as the 130 ' s. Don Col- lins was the only man to take a first place in the P. A. L. meet. In order to do this, he broke a record, climbing the stick to a height of 9 feet, 9} inches in the pole vault. Frank Pauls and Johnson ran the 50 and 100 yard dashes for the 120 ' s. Don Collins performed in both the pole vault and shotput. Kenny Reynolds was the broad jumper and Ken Bruce the high jumper. Ben Allen ran in both the 220 and 440 yard dashes. The relay team was composed of Johnson, Pauls, Reynolds and Allen. 110 POUND TRACK Our UO ' s broke two records this year in the P. A. L. Paul Jew ran the 50 yard dash in 5.4, and Don Alberson tied for first in the high jump, clearing 5 feet l-)4 inches. Tew also ran in the 100 yard dash and relay. Eddie Laine ran the 100 and helped Armand Arrouzett in broad jumping. Both were members of the relay team. The fourth man in the relay was Vincent Wells who also ran the 50 and broad jump. Morris Siordiu put the shot and Alberson showed up well in the high jump. Since most of the lightweights are under-classmen, we will lose few men through graduation. It is from the ranks of this year ' s 130 pound and 120 pound teams that the bulk of next year ' s track team will be drawn, and judging from the way these teams showed up this year prospects are bright for the 1930 track season. With such men as Goodall, Reed, Aiken, Collins and Allen for Coach Stewart to work in, the Vikings ought to make a strong bid for P. . . L. honors. fiool Li( lil ' L .ri(jlit Track f oi3 . Swimming V mr HIS year, captained by Captain Jack Tipton and under the aljle guidance of Coach Bob Fraser, the swimming team has paddled through a successful season — a season which any school could look back upt)n with pride. Starting out on the right foot, the Paly lightweights copped the first meet from Sequoia, 70-61. Seqtioia led 30 to 7 in the 110 pound events but victories in the other two classes reversed the final score in favor of Paly. Following the e.xample of the lightweights, the Viking unlimited mermen overwhelmed Alameda, 62-38, and the next week all four classes combined to pile up 106 points to Lowell ' s 44. A mid-week meet with Menlo resulted in another victory for the Vikings with the smaller margin of 63-46. The following Friday, the second meet with Sequoia was held and the unlimiteds proceeded to swamp Jim Eva ' s swimmers ; the final score read Palo Alto 70, Sequoia 21. The last meet before the light weight P. A. L. was a return meet with Menlo, and the Vikings repeated their previous tactics to win, 68-42. The light weight P. A. L. meet was held in our pool, April 26, with Sequoia, San Jose, and Palo Alto competing for honors. Sequoia copped the tens meet handily as was expected but the ' ikings showed their superiority in the 20 and 30 pound classes by taking these meets with 29 and 42 points respectively. Sequoia taking a second, leaving San Jose to trail in all the weights. As the Madrono goes to press, the unlimited meet is still in the air, but if Coach Bob Eraser ' s scjuad of paddlers show up as they have been doing all season, Palo Alto ought to walk awav with the honors and make a strong bid for another N. C. S. championship. fio2; ennis F.covERiXG from the slump of last year, the Palo Alto Tennis Team again regained its proper jslace in Peninsula Tennis. The team had no real indi- vidual star, hut was particularly successful in dual meets, as the four men. Harry Haehl, lohn .McKcllii), I ' oh Denny, and Harold Smith, were ahout on a par in playing ahility. The season was ushered in l)v a dual meet with Sequoia, April 6. The Redwood racketeers were no match for the Paly men and went down to defeat, six matches to none. In the feature match of the day Harry Haehl, playing first singles, de- feated Munday of Sequoia, . 6, 6-2, 7-5. .Approximately two weeks later, on . pril 23, the Paly netmen upset the dope Inicket hy trimming Burlingame, four matches to two. Some stellar playing was afforded the spectators hy .Melvin Whitman, Hurlingame ' s ace and Pacific Coast Boy ' s Champion. The hest match of the day resulted in a win for Paly when Harry Haehl and John McKellip. first doubles, defeated Whitman and Myers in an uphill battle, 4-6, 7-5. 7-5. The Paly entries in the P. . . I., tournament will probably be liarr - liai-hl and .McKelli]) in the doubles and either Denny or Smith in the singles. As the Madrono goes to press dual meets are pending with San Jose, Polytechnic High of San Francisco and University High of ( )akland. If the Paly team lives u]) to early season exjiectations it will come out on top in these meets. Credit slionld be given the team for having lo contend with the obstacles of no coaching and poor courts. Witii McKellip, Dennv, and Smith returning next year and numerous under- classmen rapidly improving, the outlook for anotiier good team is exceedingly bright. fio3l 1 ' mm ' -Hit J| r r S?

The all-star first team was composed of seniors. Frances Hurd, first singles; jcannette Gere, second singles; Frances George and Louise I ' almer, second douhles. made up the team. Veva Jane Haehl and Ruth Casey, first douhlcs, though champions, were not on the team, since they played but two matches. The second team tournament was unusually successful. Seldom do all classes have complete second teams hut this year even the amateurs responded to the call. With the exception of the second doubles, who were freshmen, the all-stars were again seniors. Betty Moser, first singles; Helen ' ernier, second singles; Mildred Butts and .Aldena Dutra, first doubles; and Helen Hill and Lorraine Schuck, second doubles, composed the all-star team. The preliminaries for Clareniont were played at Golden Gate Park on April twentieth. Frances Hurd, playing first singles, lost to a player from the Anna Head School. Elmira Espy, substituting for Ethel Sharkey, second singles, likewise lost to Head ' s. Luck favored our doubles players. Veva Jane Haehl and Ruth Casey, after a hard three set match with Castilleja ' s first doubles, defeated their opponents. Louise I ' almer and Frances George won easily from Miss Randolph ' s. Veva and Ruth won from Harker ' s, 6-1, 6-3, at the semi-finals on May third. Louise Palmer and F ' rances George played a 6-4, 6-2 match with Burke ' s. At the finals on I Iay fourth at Clareniont, both the doubles teams were victorious after strenuous long matches of three sets. Horton ' s first doubles bowed to the Casey-Haehl duo at the scores of 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. ( )ur second doubles and their opponents from Head ' s were also fairly evenly matched, judging from the scores. 6-3, 5-7, 6-3. The first doubles cup is now ours permanently, while the second doubles cup is ours for only next vear, since we have not had it before. fiosl QirW Sports I sue --ik_ crir tall tennis season cUjsed in (Jctoher after a successful six weeks of playing. Kinety-three girls participated in the three tournaments : The first and second class teams and inter-period teams. In the first team tournament the seniors won everything but the first singles match, which was won by a junior. As the Madrono goes to press the tennis enthusiasts are climbing up the class and school ladders preparatory to the spring interclass tournainents and the Claremont matches. The Claremont singles team is still unde- termined. Frances Hurd and Ethel Sharkey will prnli- ablv plav first and second singles respectively. . t pres- ent there is keen competition for the substitute. The doubles teams will consist of Ruth Casey and ' eva Jane Haehl playing first doubles with Frances George and Louise Palmer second doubles. We are relying on our first doubles players to win the cup. In the preliminaries both doubles won. If Veva and Ruth are again victor- ious the cup will be a permanent trophy. P oth doubles teams should make good in the semi-finals and finals as they rank as the four highest on the school singles ladder. .After si.x weeks of practice games, the juniors, captained liy Roberta Hindes, were heralded as hockey champions. The seniors threatened defeat to the junior team but had to be satisfied with second place. The fact that the majority of plavers on the all-star were juniors pro -es that the champions, with their splendid team work, did not lack individual stars. The captains and coaches selected the following all-star team ; Winifred Mc.Aslan, Barbara Berryman, Ruth Casey, h ' ranees George. Jeannette Gere, ' eva Jane Haehl, Goldie Hidegh, Roberta Hindes, (irace Lauridsen. Marjorie Miles, Nettie Miller, Opal Xicolaides and Rio Sato. An interest seldom found in volle y ball was exemplified this year. There was a long season due to the fact that there were ten class teams ; eighty-one students in all. The winning of nine games made the senior . team champions. The junior M team was defeated only by the eventual champions and the junior A team ranked third. Those girls chosen for the all-star team were: ] Iolly Buenzle, Dorothy Bur- rows, Mildred Butts, . ldena Dutra, Gladys Mallot, Louise Palmer, Anna Pearson, Marie Pos, and Ethel Sharkey. Five of the nine were seniors. . series of inter- jjeriod games was also completed with sixty-six girls playing. Basketball again proved to be a ])opular sport. Because of the large turnout of eighty-eight girls, ten teams were (Organized. The popularity of the three-court game made the forming of teams for the nine-court impractical. In spite of the fact that a senior team was expected to take honors, the junior .- team was de- clared champion, having been victorious in all of its games. fio61 _: z S 1 ' U. z - IS :UJ ca = z g fioy]} There was a cook — They called him Potlatch And said he was the reason why the ship sank so fast.
