THE MADRONO June • • • • 1938 Published June, 19318, by the Senior Class Palo Alto Senior High School Miss Frances Huntington Adviser Fred Manwaring Editor James Dudfield Business Willard Krogh Art A T I O N In appreciation of her help and advice and unfailing friendship, the Senior Class of 1938 takes pride in dedicating this, their yearbook, to Mrs. Leona McCully. Through four years at Palo Alto High School her guidance as counselor to our class has been not only constructive but inspirational. FORE s INCEREL.Y YOURS MICKEY House, Minnie n°us£ O R D By placing our emphasis on pictorialization of events rather than on mere use of words which so often prove inadequate, we present in the 1938 Madrono a modern and up-to-date yearbook. The use of Walt Disney's characters was by special permission of Walt Disney Productions, Ltd., and provided a theme that was new and different. Contents of the 1938 Madrono are SENIORS, ADMINISTRATION, ACTIVITIES, and SPORTS. IN MEMORIAM WILLIAM CARR MclNNIS The death of William Carr Mc- Innis found nothing but grief in the hearts of the faculty and mem- bers of this student body. It ended years of service to Palo Alto High School and the community. Mr. Mclnnis, whose death was due to an accidental fall last September, will long be remembered for his keen sense of humor and popularity among students and faculty alike.

As you graduate from high school the curtain drops on scene one, but only for purposes of rearranging the stage in order to carry on the theme. Nothing is apt to happen in succeeding acts that has not been at least in part prepared for in the one you are now closing. Count us as a part of the supporting cast not only for the first act, but for those that follow. Palo Alto Senior High School hopes that for you the remainder of the production will sweep on to the very best promise of the first act. Very sincerely, IVAN H.

Class of 1938 • • The Class of 1938 is on its way ou+1 Although looking forward to college days and prospective careers, '38 can't help looking back and reminisc- ing about its experiences during the past four years. Like a plant that springs from a tiny seed, the class of '38 is no longer a group of slightly be- wildered youngsters but a band of over 260 young men and women. Four years at Palo Alto High School have been no small part in making them what they are today. It is with this in mind that '38 bids adieu somewhat with regret. Before it will be new and stranger bewilderments, different problems to solve, and new decisions to make. '38 is ready to step aside in favor of '39, but it moves forward in favor of itself. 15 Top Row Feeley Ferrin Fitzpatrick Follansbee Fox Franco Gabrielson Gaffigan Gaspar Second Row Gates Gerdau Gielitz Glaamann Graham Gunn • Gunther H..

The Class of 1938 had not only capable officers, but leaders who repre- sented the interests of the class as a whole. Miles Metzger was president and contributed greatly in organization of the class government and in pre- senting class meetings. Assisting Miles and always prepared to take his place if necessary was vice- president Frank Weller. Secretary of the class, Bev Canine, kept minutes for the Senior Class Council and the records of class meetings. The importanf position of treasurer was held by Pat Hogan. His duty was to handle funds for graduation announce- ments, for the class gift, and for the Commence- ment Dance. Senior Court custodian, Walt Gere, used his broom occasionally, while Martin Christian- sen was in charge of all social functions. ©-VVDP. 17 Top Row Houseman Howell. B Howell.

However, in spite of this general belief, the Council of the Class of 1938 was a very active and important body. For the first time the only ambition of the Senior Class Council was to create a better class and a better school. With this incentive, the Council did very commendable work. With Mrs. McCully acting as adviser, many intricate problems were discussed, such as a class gift that would be of value to the future, caps and gowns for graduation, the theme of the Madrono, and the Senior Honor Cards. Every problem was considered by the Council with the same sincerity. ©WDR 19 Top Row Locke, B. Locke, W Love. G. Love, R.

In the opinion of Mrs. Leona McCully and the Senior Class Council, seniors can not only be trusted but also would do their best to prevent un- necessary absence. The Class of 1938 tried out this plan. Seniors were allowed to apply to the Senior Council for privilege cards. By signing the card each senior expressed interest in the experiment and promised to do his best to prevent absence from classes. The results of this experiment, still unknown, should be extremely interesting. If it proves success- ful, there would be no reason why more such privi- leges shouldn't be granted, even to lower classmen. The success of the Senior Honor System would ulti- mately lead to a more progressive high school, in which all students learn good citizenship through ex- perience in assuming responsibility. 11 Top Row Overturf Palmer Parnuh Patter ion Pedersen Perreton Shaw Petersen, M.

That was the problem that faced Palo Alto High School in the past year. The careful organization of the school, for years very satisfactory, had to be greatly reorganized. No longer was the freshman class with us, but instead Paly High was for the first time in history Palo Alto Senior High School. The new and modern Junior High School, the new home for our freshmen, left a problem of readjustment that was difficult, but was faced scientifically. Smaller and consequently better classes resulted, along with many other im- provements, but student body activities suffered from such a small enrollment. The Campanile and the Madrono faced a crisis, student body cards were few in number. But in the end these problems were worked out. Now Palo Alto Senior High School, past the embryonic stage, can look forward to the future with enthusiasm and confidence. 2) Top Row Sheridan Shoote Shreve Schroder Siegfried Si m mens Sivertsen Slater Smith Second Row Spurlock Steknll Steers Stern Stevens Stevenson Strother Sund Thom Third Row Thompson Thurman Todd Tomson T uggle Uppman Vaughn Wade W agner Fourth Row Walker.

Now, vacation approaching, we look back through the past year to a vista of memorable events: Senior Week, which was enjoyed not only by seniors but by the others alike— Three- Cornered Moon and the Stunt Show and the Jinx —the Sequoia football game, when we let our rah- rah spirit carry us into a cloudburst—the new as- sembly system and the good entertainment—the Glee Club dance, fun for all,—the day we voted on amendments, when most of us felt that our con- stitution was worthless—back to the time when Johnstone was bashful and Dudfield refused to commit himself.—Yes, we did have homework, but it wasn't such a bad year at that.

LINDER GEORGE S. STEWART LOUISE HEATWOLE EDITH DUNCAN MILDRED SHELLPEPPER Carrying on the fine work he started last year as principal, Mr. Lin- der has devoted undivided time to the management and better- ment of Palo Alto High School. Mr. Stewart, as vice-principal, has carried out his duties with the same conscientiousness and under- standing that have always characterized his work in the past. In the role of registrar, Miss Heatwole has been occupied in compiling the records of all the students, and attending to the seniors' college ap- plications. Miss Shellpepper, the secretary, has been called upon for aid by both the teachers and students. Mrs. Duncan has spent many long hours recording absences and dealing with students who persist in cutting. All in all, those in charge of the administration of the school have devoted many hours to their work, and have performed their duties efficiently. DEPARTMENTS WALLACE H. MOORE HOWARD C. RAY RUTH MIDDLEKAUFF SOPHIA CRAMER LAWRENCE FULLER The curriculum of the high school is divided info five main parts —namely, social studies, languages, science, home economics and fine arts, and physical education. In charge of social studies is Mr. Moore, who has proposed and carried out many changes in this field. Miss Cramer has been at the head of the language department, and has managed her duties very efficiently. Miss Middlekauff has had charge of the home economics and fine art courses and has worked out many improvements for the department. In charge of science is Mr. Fuller, who this last year has devoted much effort in reorganizing the chemistry classes. Mr. Ray has attended to the business end of the physical education department. All of these department heads are doing their best to have their courses as modern as possible. JJ The faculty has carried out its duties well, and with a rare understanding of the students' needs. Mr. Knoles, new to us this year, has definitely proved himself a profitable and highly interesting teacher. Besides checking up upon her students' grammar, Miss Huntington has devoted much of her time to the publication of the Madrono. Miss Harned and Miss Middlekauff have kept busy teach- ing the girls the mysteries of home economics, while Miss Wenk and Mrs. Edmondson have expounded the intricacies of good business. In the world of science Miss Kellv, Mr. Burbank, and Mr. Jungerman have all acquitted themselves with skill. Mr. Shippy, in terminating his long career in the high school, continued to perform his duties with his characteris- tic skill and understanding. Miss Clary has kept the memories of ancient Rome alive in her Latin classes, while Miss Uppman and Mrs. Guerrero have done their best to help their students conquer the native tongues of the Germans and Spaniards. Mr. Kil- Patrick has spent many busy hours teaching mech- anically-minded boys the workings of the automo- bile, and Mr. Moody has endeavored to make his students expert wood craftsmen. Miss Williams car- ried on her traditionally good work in her English classes, and Miss Montgomery continued to impart some of her vast knowledge on the past to her classes. Miss McKee and Mr. Headley have looked out for the students cultural welfare by training them in art and music.

Mrs. McCully, Miss Eustace, Miss Preston, and Mr. Cypher, besides performing fheir regular teaching duties in English and history, have devoted much of their time to counseling. FACULTY COMMISSIONERS BILL LANE FRED JOHNSTONE WESLEY HILLENDAHL EMMA EDWARDS BOB BUETTLER BOB HINZE HENRY NORBERG BETTY JARCHOW MARGARET RANKIN The Commissioners' diligent work this year was punctuated with interesting assemblies, successful doughnut sales, and fun-giving Jolly-Ups. Bill Lane, Public Welfare Commissioner, deserves praise for his inauguration of the successful pay assembly. Emma Edwards, Commissioner of Social Activities, and Bob Beuttler, Commissioner of Cultural Activities, spent much time getting these new offices or- ganized, while our financier, Fred Johnstone, gave his math prowess a work-out keeping the books balanced. Marge Rankin and Henry Norberg ably took over their varied duties as Commissioners of Girls' and Boys' Activities, and athletically-minded Betty Jarchow and Bob Hinze performed their duties above reproach. Sue Atkinson proved to be an efficient secretary, and faculty advisers, Mrs. Edmondson and Mr. Stewart, won the gratitude of all for their invaluable aid. LEAGUES MARGARET RANKIN HENRY NORBERG GRACE WINKLER RALPH BACK RUTH PRESTON HOWARD RAY Presentation of the traditional Girls' Jinx, helping two needy fami- lies for Christmas Charities, and entertaining with the Mothers' Tea kept the Girls' League busy every day of the school year. In addition to these three outstanding activities, many interesing pro- grams were presented under the able direction of Margaret Ran- kin and Marjorie Hunt. Miss Ruth Preston as adviser contributed greatly to a successful year. Outstanding from the Boys' League regular duties this year was the presentation of a Dads' Night. It was successful, and the League deserves special credit for inaugurating such a program. The Boys' Stunt Show and the varied and interesting assemblies were both supervised by Henry Norberg, president; and Mr. Ray, faculty adviser. 37 MARNIE WALLER CRAWFORD GATES MILES METZGER M. CHRISTIANSEN FRANK WELLER MELVIN SHIPPY STUDENT COURT Of the many things accomplished this year by the Student Court, two stand out as being of particular significance. First a deci- sion was reached in regard to the amount of power over school or- ganizations to be entrusted in the Commissioner of Cultural Activi- ties; and second, cutting in in the cafeteria line was practically abolished, after several offenders were brought before the Court and were given unusually severe sentences. Those who served as judges for the first semester were Miles Metzger, chairman; Mar- garet Waller, secretary; Frank Weller, Martin Christiansen, and Crawford Gates, while those for the second semester were Frank Weller, chairman; Margaret Post, secretary; Jimmy Kessler, Bill Aze- vedo, and Crawford Gates. Mr. Shippy acted as faculty adviser. 38 ATHLETIC CONTROL B. A. C. Norberg, Azevedo, Krogh, Gere, Hinze, Wuthman, Metzger. G. A. A. Whitton, Sheridan, Clark, Jarchow, Christian- sen, Gordon, McClain. Besides its routine work, the Board of Athletic Control has not done much except to give a special award for reserve foot- ball players. This year's members were Bob Hinze, president; Richard Rabbett, secretary; Henry Norberg, Pat Hogan, Willard Krogh, Miles Metzger, Walter Gere, Bill Azevedo, Jerry Feeley, Max Wuth- man, Clarence Rick, Jerry Nelson; and faculty advisers, Hod Ray, Ned Johns, and Robert Fraser. Although the Girls' Athletic Association has not had an exceptionally active year, two outstanding feats, the complete revision of the con- stitution and the planning for the county sportsday, were accom- plished. Those who led the executive board were Betty Jarchow, president, and Pat Clark, vice-president. BLOCK P BOYS' BLOCK MPM Top Row: Back, Reeves, Steers, Metzger, Norberg, Whisler, Ferrin.

The regular duties of the Boys' Block P Society were performed very efficiently under the guidance of Max Wuthman, presi- dent; Ralph Back, vice-president; Bill Azevedo, secretary-treasurer; and Ned Johns, faculty adviser. Among its different activities were two highly successful dances, provision of car guards and boys to regulate hall traffic, and presentation of a stunt in the Boys' Stunt Show. An initiation party, a snow trip, and an ice-skating party were the outstanding activities undertaken by the Girls' Block P Society during the past year. The Society was under the leadership of Clara Nystrom and Miss Collins. The Numeral Society, a new organization, spent a busy year getting organized. The officers were Louise Gor- don and Teddy Kreps. 4Q CO-OP, MINOR LETTER CO-OP Krogh, Wuthman, Mr. Stewart (Sponsor), Slater, Thoits. MINOR LETTER SOCIETY Top Row: Denmark, Schultz, Adams, B.

In charge of the Co-op are Bob Slater, manager; Willard Krogh, assistant manager; Warren Thoits, Max Wuthman; and Mr. Stewart adviser. This year the Minor Letter Society has not been very active in the school life. Last year the society was relieved of its duty of guarding cars, and since then it has had no other regular duties. The members are admitted as recognition of achievement in minor sports. There were about fifty members in the society, with Clarence Rick acting as president and Mr. Fraser as faculty adviser. 4 SCHOLARSHIP SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY Top Row: Merner, Plea- sant, Lawrance, Lee, Sieg- fried, Adams.

Among these were a progressive dinner, an ice-skating party, a pop- corn sale, and a spring picnic. Representatives of the society also at- tended two district C. S. F. meetings. The first of these was held at the High School of Commerce in San Francisco. For the second, the Sacred Heart Convent played the role of host at St. Mary's College. At both meetings an interesting and valuable program was enjoyed by the representatives. Those who guided the society through the year were Margaret Schilling, president; Tom Fox, vice-president; Patricia Allen, secretary; and Miss Cramer, faculty adviser. POINT AWARD BETTY TOMSON SALLY HOGE BERT MEEK BOB DECIUS SUSAN NORRIS IVONNE JOHNSON MRS. McCULLY The Point Award Committee has spent many busy hours record- ing the service points of deserving students. This year an impor- tant change was made in the system. Instead of requiring one thousand service points before a student could receive a Silver Seal, it was changed to eight hundred. The main purposes of the Com- mittee are to arouse interest among the students in extra-curricular activities and to recognize the responsibility, service, and good citizenship a student shows by engaging in activities. Those who have carried on the efficient work of the Committee are Betty Tomson, chairman; Ivonne Johnson, secretary; Bert Meek, Sally Hoge, Bob Decius, and Sue Norris, with Mrs. McCully as faculty adviser. 43 JUNIORS 4 CLASSROOM CLASSROOM 1.

Ahem nreim- MICKEY MOUSE JOINS THE CLUB •• nr In presenting to the student body the 1938 Madrono, the staff has attempted to edit a yearbook that lives up to every trend of modern annuals. Page layouts that are new and striking, a stronger emphasis on pictorialization, and a new and different theme have been the goals of the 1938 Madrono. Fred Manwaring as editor acted as general supervisor of the entire publication, Bert Meek was his assis- tant, and James Dudfield took charge of the business end. Other staff members were Lorraine Butler, photography; Willard Krogh, Elroy Vaughn, and Wilma Arjo, art; Ted Uppman, snaps; Margaret Schilling, administration section; Evelyn Pleasant, organization sec- tion; Janice Schwensen and Brenda Moody, drama; Alice Beach, typist; and Leland Cutler and Ann Whitman, sports. The greatest credit for whatever success the Madrono may have achieved is due to Miss Frances Huntington, who has been indispensable as a faculty adviser. The Madrono also wishes to thank Major Charles T. Vander- vort for taking the group pictures, Newton Studios for photograph- ing the seniors, the California Art and Engraving Company, and Tucker Printing Company. For her willing assistance in connection with the art work, Miss Stella McKee also receives heartiest apprecia- tion, Upon these people, the staff of the Madrono has been very dependent, for the enormous amount of photography, the art work, and the printing and engraving determine the success of any year- book. The staff of the 1938 Madrono sincerely hopes that you will like your yearbook. For more than a year, from the selection of a theme to the payment of the final bills, the editors of the Madrono and the adviser have kept the annual constantly in mind. Although the Madrono has proved to be a result of continuous effort, the task as a whole has been pleasant and fascinating.

Canine, Moody, Vaughn, Krogh. 52 MADRONO f Maintaining the high precedent set in past years, the Campanile again won the reputation of being one of the finest high school papers in the country. Under the editorship of Leland Cutler, the Campanile won high rankings in the various press contests. The staff members attended two conventions during the year—one at Stan- ford in the winter and the other at California in the spring. At the former Gordon Sevilla and Wesley Hillendahl won honorable men- tion for feature and news writing respectively. In February the paper combined with the staff of the Sequoia Times to produce the annual Sequanile. Much credit is due the editorial staff for their fine work during the past year: Leland Cutler, editor; Myfanwy Hughes, managing editor; Margot Seward, Jim Taylor, Phyllis Schynert, as- sociate editors; Jane Jillson and Betty Emory, feature editors; Rod Wheeler and Gordon Sevilla, sports editors; Bill Graham and Pat Hogan, business managers; and Jayne Follansbee, advertising mana- ger. Wallace H. Moore has been faculty adviser for two years and has completed his last year with the Campanile. Next fall he will assume the responsibilities of dean at Coalinga Junior College. Mr. Moore will be a very difficult man to replace. In his few years at Palo Alto High School, he has been not only an excellent teacher but also a man who is respected and liked by those on the Campa- nile. His policy towards the Campanile has been modern and up-to- date. While many faculty advisers act as censors to every line of type, Wallace H. Moore has been iust what the name of his office implies—faculty adviser. He has been content to remain in the back- ground and to give the editors the opportunity to determine their own policy. This makes working under Wallace H, Moore doubly valuable. When the editors did need advice, they always found him an open listener and an excellent adviser.

This Christmas gift to the school consisted of a series of tableaus and two plays, The Christmas Road and The Modern Viking. An innovation was introduced this year—that of having two casts. This was done so that more people could take part, and so that there would be an understudy for each part. Nearly all of the one-acts had two casts. During Drama Week the club pre- sented What Men Live By by Tolstoy. In connection with the Drama Class, the Thespians presented plays for assemblies, the P. T. A., and Dads' Night. In the spring they participated in the Peninsula Drama Festival with one of their one-act plays. They completed the year with the three-act, Three Cornered Moon. Officers for the year were Bill Graham, president; Ellen Wylie, vice-president; and Bette Sheridan, secretary. Miss Shields is the faculty adviser. Two more innovations were tried out in the dramatics this year and each proved to be of value. The first was the formation of the Drama Classes, taught by Miss Shields. There were two periods a day for these classes, and they did much to increase interest in high school dramatics and the study of the stage. The other innovation was to have various faculty members act as judges at the casting tryouts. Wallace H. Moore, Mrs. Lucille Green, and Stella McKee of the faculty helped to choose the casts, replacing the old system of hav- ing the Thespian Club adviser assume the responsibility alone.

With a variety of characters and a plot that keeps an enthusiastic audience in suspense from beginning to end, the story portrays the adventures of a well-to-do family, which never works and is always inventing complicated methods of suicides and impulsive journeys. One day, Mrs. Rimplegar, played by Pat Allen and Dorothea Bernsdorf, sells her fortune to a margin broker and this is where the plot develops. Mrs. Rimplegar becomes the nagging house mother, and the kids go to work on starvation wages. The play, directed by Miss Laurene Shields, was carried through in the usual successful Thespian style. The two casts, which were used in alternate performances, also included Patsy Jay and Verona Steffen- sen as Elizabeth; Tom Shreve as Kenneth; Jack Harriman and Kenneth Johnson as Douglas; Charles Norby and Leland Cutler as Ed; Gilbert Quinby as Donald; Bill Graham and Ed Manning as Dr. Stevens; Nancy Dewey and Patsy Rayner as Jenny; and Mary Ann Bolton and Beverly Wood as Kitty. This is the first time that the three-act has ever had two casts, the principal purpose being to give more stu- dents the opportunity of participating. The three-act always attracts a great number of tryoutees, and because there are only nine characters in Three Cornered Moon, two casts were formed. In all, three performances were given. The first, on May II, was a matinee for the junior high school students; the second, on May 12, was the evening performance; and the third was a matinee for the high school on the following day.

THREE CORNERED MOON” 55 The annual stunt show was presented by the Boys' League on April the eighth. High spots on the entertainment were a skit called the Trial of Mazie West, the Block P Ballet, Charley Travis' Goodman Trio, Crawford Gates' Orchestra, and the singing of Ted Uppman and Verne Freeman. The masters of ceremonies were Jim Wylie and Gregory Goodenough. The show was directed by Henry Norberg and Coach Hod Ray. The fact that the Jinx this year had no special theme allowed a great variety of stunts. Over one hundred girls participated. Most of the skits were musical, although there were several tap dances and comic skits. The Jinx was ably directed by Margaret Rankin. Miss Preston was the faculty adviser, and Miss McKee and the stage crew helped with the lights and sets. One of the most industrious organizations in the high school, the stage crew is responsible for the sets of all the plays given and for other functions presented on the stage of the Palo Alto High School auditorium. Weeks before a play is to take place, the stage crew can be found building sets. This year Warren Thoits has been head of the crew, Waldron Wilson has been in charge of lighting, and Miss McKee is the adviser. The Mineralogy Club is one of Palo Alto's newest clubs and was established for those who are interested in studying the various minerals. Mr. Fuller, who has taught geology and mineralogy, has acted as adviser. Trips to Morgan Hill, Emerald Lake, and other nearby sites were taken during the year. STAGE CREW—Wuthman, Hogan, Thoits, Slater, Price, Burrill, Lane, Roe, Wilson. MINERALOGY CLUB—Mock, Ferrin, Walker, J., Buss, Drake, Fox, Meek, Hight, Proctor, Walker, G., Mr. Fuller (Sponsor). STAGE CREW, MINERALOGY I Publication of only one issue of the Literary Magazine was possible this year because of the failure of the student body to contribute material. It Is hoped, however, that next year interest in the periodi- cal will be revived and more issues will be published. Robert Duryea as editor did his best to arouse student interest into supporting the Lit. For the first time since it was founded at Palo Alto High School, the Quill and Scroll began to take an active part in student body affairs. The society is entirely an honorary organization, and stu- dents who have done outstanding work in some phase of journalism are qualified as members. Susan Atkinson as president and Margot Seward as secretary were the officers during the year, and Wallace H. Moore acted as faculty adviser. LIT STAFF—First Row: Krcps, Bruce, Fox, Canine, Call.

The club was almost entirely reorganized, and a new constitution was drawn up. The evening meetings of business and discussion on a given topic were well received, and the invitational assemblies started in March will no doubt be continued next year. Other officers are Henry Leland, vice-president; Ann Reed, secretary; Alan Bruce, general manager; and Tully Knoles, faculty adviser. An organization designed to promote international interest is the International Club. Established three years ago, the club has taken an interest in world affairs. Officers for the second semester were Bert Meek, president; Henry Leland, vice-president; Alan Bruce, secretary. Helen Buss was president for the first semester, and Clark Cypher is the faculty adviser. FORUM CLUB—Mr. Knoles (Adviser), Norris, Merrier, Bryant, Bernsdorf, Meek, Leland, Kessler Hillcndahl. Reed.

The glee club also sang at the Girls' Jinx, at the President's Ball, and at the Public Education Week program. Leslie Langnecker is president of the organization. The A Cappella Choir has been a very active organization during the past year. Mrs. Lucille Green led the choir, and their efforts were rewarded when they received a trophy at the first All-State Choir Festival. Other engagements included singing at the Fortnightly Club, at the Community Theater on two occasions, at Mountain View High School, and at the Santa Clara Valley Choir Festival.

PHILOMUSIA, A CAPPELLA Mr. H. Klyne Headley surpassed difficulties in instrumentation and size to produce a fine orchestra. The orchestra played at two P. T. A. meet- ings, gave three concerts on the History of American Music, and combined with the A Cappella Choir to give a Christmas program at the Community Theater. Later in the year it played during Public School Week and at the Santa Clara Valley Orchestra Festival. Under the direction of Mr. David M. Knighton, the Palo Alto band numbered thirty-five musicians and three drum majors. With new uniforms, the group played at all the home football games and at several of the basketball games. Among the various other events in which the band participated were the Armistice Day Parade, Dads' Night, Public School Week, and the May Day Parade. ORCHESTRA—First Row: Strick.

In all, five girls tried out as prospective cheer leaders and three of them, June Garr, Heather Whitton, and Jackie Diamond, were ac- cepted by Head Yell Leader Jerry Nelson. New megaphones and sweaters were bought by the Board of Athletic Control and classes were established for training. Because there were ten yell leaders in all, no one of the number led throughout any entire season. Organized to promote the interest of high school girls and boys in tennis, the Tennis Club has completed another successful year. Tournaments in the spring and fall, with new balls or cups as prizes, have been held, and these, together with the year-round operation of a tennis ladder, gave every member a chance to take active parti- cipation. Hal Lamb as president and Mrs. Younkin as adviser were responsible for the success of the club. YELL LEADERS—Nielsen, P.. Whitton, Horst, Garr, Ncilson, D . Diamond, Manwaring, TENNIS CLUB—First Row.

Karl Gielitz is president; Fred Proctor, secretary-treasurer. All models, so tar, have been small rubber-powered ones; although Karl Gielitz has been building a gas model. During the year a contest was held to test the workmanship ot the members. With the club's station, W6PII, maintaining communications with amateur radio operators over the entire country, the Radio Club is now one ot the school's most popular organizations. The purpose ot the organization is to prepare members tor the examination neces- sary to obtain an Amateur Operator's License. Mr. Burbank is the club's adviser; Bob Helliwell, president; Bob Bradford, vice-president; Albert Jew, secretary tor the first semester, and Ray Krone, secretary for the second; and Bud Hoffman, custodian.

Its program for the year consisted of a series of talks by business men and demonstration of business mach- ines, and several field trips during the year to various business establishments in the vicinity, including the Sutter Packing Company and the Pacific Press. Mrs. Edmondson is the sponsor, Edna Dooley is the president, and Beverley Engley is secretary. The Home Economics Club has had one hundred and twenty-five active members during the past year under the sponsorship of Miss Middlekauff and the leadership of Donna Wear. An interesting and diverting program was carried out. Some of the events of the club's calendar were lectures by an artist, a furrier, a coiffeuse, and an in- terior decorator. Fashion shows were presented in the fall and in the spring. COMMERCIAL CLUB—First Row: Motooka. Lentos. Hansel. Knight, Ermcy. Dooley, Mrs. Edmondson (Adviser), Schneider.

Most mem- orable events of the year were talks by Dr. A. T. Murray, emeritus professor of Greek at Stanford, and by Tully Knoles of our faculty. The traditional initiations of slave collars, bay leaves, and perfume were supplemented by selling the slaves from the block to the old members. Evelyn Pleasant is dictator and Miss Clary is faculty adviser. The Spanish Club was led by Edna Ellis, president, and Mrs. Guerrero, adviser. The meetings were varied, informal gatherings, consisting of Spanish games and songs, special holiday meetings with plays, and talks on Mexico and early California missions.

Its record — two victories, one tie, and four de- feats — was none too impressive, but no small consola- tion to Coach Hod Ray was the spirit his team showed even in losing. A 25-0 win over Hayward preceded the P. A. L. season for the Vikings. In the opener the Palo Altans tied a favored South San Francisco outfit, 7-all, their best game of the season. The following week Palo Alto protected an early lead to beat San Mateo, 7-0. Then, after three weeks, the inevitable let-down came, and Jefferson won, 13-0. A strange technicality gave Bur- lingame a 2-0 victory in the next game; and the following week San Jose, league champ, handed Palo Alto its third straight defeat, 20-0. Bringing the season to an end, the scrappy Vikings lost the Big Game to Sequoia, when Norberg, the star of the team, left the game with an in- jury. Sequoia won, 14-3. Outstanding during the season were Norberg, Back, Hansen, Shreve, Stevens, Metzger, and Hawley. Prospects for next year appear bright, with returning veterans numerable. Norberg, all-P. A. L. end, will be missing, along with Metzger, Hansen, Shreve, Stevens, and others, but Coach Hod Ray may neverthe- less develop a powerful team. VARSITY FOOTBALL f Frosh-Soph football at Palo Alto was dropped this year because of the lack of a freshmen class, and a B foot- ball team was established, composed of substitute varsity players and coached by Ned Johns. The reserve eleven finished the season without a defeat, tied only by San Jose's Frosh-Sophs, 0-0. They won a close game from the Frosh-Sophs of Burlingame, 6-0; easily over-powered both Jefferson and San Mateo handily; and in the final game of the season outplayed the Sequoia lower-class- men from the starting whistle to the closing gun. The score of 13-7 might have been more decisive, so dominant were the Vikings over their Redwood City foes. Against San Jose, the reserves threatened several times, but couldn't manage to score. In the game with Jefferson, Lyle Taggart scored all 19 points, his team mates in turn holding the opponent scoreless. Bearsby and Beliveau were outstanding in the close 6-0 victory over Burlingame. Although all their games were with P. A .L. teams, the record of the B team did not count in league standings. Nevertheless, the majority of the members of the squad were lower classmen, giving indication that a purely Frosh- Soph team might have been near or at the top. Bearsby, Black, Anderson, Wilson, and Berryman starred during the season. Because of the fine record of this squad, the Board of Athletic Control made an exception in reward- ing the individual team members minor letters.

Although it placed tourth in the league standings, the Palo Alto basketball team was feared by other teams on the Pennlnsula as the most dangerous team in the P. A. L. Composed largely of untried material, the unlimiteds rose to their greatest heights by upsetting San Jose, un- crowned champion of the league. Sequoia, winner of the title merely because it played more games than San Jose, beat Paly in both games, 57-22 and 25-13. In other games the Vikings lost to South City, 24-23; but they beat both Jefferson and Burlingame handily. Ritscher, Norberg, Back, Denmark, Gunther, and Anderson were outstanding during the season. The 30's will go down in history as one of the best teams in lightweight basketball history. Ending the sea- son in second place, Coach Ned Johns' outfit salvaged Palo Alto's basketball reputation by twice defeating Sequoia, 22-17 and 22-6, and by beating San Mateo for the first time in ten years. During the season they lost to San Jose and South City, but these defeats were matched by victories over Burlingame and Jefferson. Gere, Gerdau, Collins, Steffen, and Taggart all de- serve credit. UNLIMITED, 3o’s BASKETBALL i Two victories and four defeats was the record of I 10- pound basketball at Palo Alto during the past year. The bright spot of the season was defeating Sequoia in both games. The dimes played good basketball all season and were greatly improved at the conclusion of the P. A. L. play. Jackie Howell was the star of the team and was selected on the All-P. A. L team. Taylor, Rich- ards, Mock, and Sakakihara were all outstanding. The twenties ended their season with a .500 average, winning games from Sequoia, San Jose, and Burlingame, and losing the final game to Sequoia, as well as to San Mateo and South City. A last half rally failed to over- come a Sequoia lead in the last game at Redwood City, while the local 20's lost another close game when San Mateo rallied to beat them in the closing minutes. Lack of reserve material was the main cause of the average showing. Reilly, Troedson, Yamamura, and Show were the team's mainstays. Reilly and Troedson both won positions on the all-P. A. L. team, having received this same distinction last year as tens. 110 BASKETBALL—Quinby, Ramsey, Freeman.

A. L. dual-meet season with only one defeat. Led by Hank Nor- berg, Andy Clough, Fred Palmer, Lyle Taggart, and others, the varsity showed supremacy on the field as well as the track. In the first meet of the year, the Vikings traveled to San Francisco to meet Balboa. Because of the wet weather, Ned John's men were not entered in several events and the San Francisco team won by a 77 1 3 to 35 2 3 score. One meet concluded the practice season. In the first league dual meet, the Norse- men defeated a highly talented team from Jefferson. The favored team went down easily under the combined strength of the Paly trackmen. In inaugurating the new Paly track, the Vikings won by a decisive 64-49 score. Palo Alto continued its streak by winning from San Mateo on the latter's track, 74 j to 38f 2- Next in line came the annual Big Meet with Sequoia, which was run on the home track. Paly won more easily than was expected by a margin of 78-35. In this meet Norberg put the shot 49' 101 2 , falling short of the P. A. L. record by one-half inch. In the final dual meet of the season the Vikings traveled to San Jose, where they were defeated quite de- cisively, 64-39. In this meet, however, Paly showed enough power in taking first places to be a great threat in the P. A. L. meet. During the course of the season the Vikings took part in two other meets. In the King City Relays they finished fourth. Schools from Paso Robles to San Francisco competed. In another meet the Vikings joined men from other peninsula schools to form the P. A. L. All-Stars in a meet with the Stanford Frosh. UNLIMITED TRACK LIGHTWEIGHT TRACK—First Row Dodda, Newman, Richards, Mattingly, Mock, Quinby, Taylor, P., Rick.

LIGHTWEIGHT TRACK Improving as the season moved forward, the lightweight trackmen showed better individual marks than team per- formances. In the opening meet, the Vikings engaged in a dual meet with Jefferson on the Daly City track. The thirties won 64-36; the twenties lost by the close score of 45-44; and the tens won all but one first place in winning 45-5. The lightweights were overwhelmed in the Sequoia meet, hardly getting a first place. In the San Mateo meet, the Norsemen showed some fine perfor- mances, although losing in all three weights. The Mateans won the thirties 70 1 5 to 33 4 5; the Paly twenties lost 46-40 and the tens lost 36-14, with only Sakikihara taking a first place. In the final dual meet of the season against San Jose, the Vikings lost again. The Norsemen lost the thirty meet by a 62-40 score; the twenties lost 55-31; and tens were on the short end of a 48-2 score. It is true that the performances as a team were not exceptional, but individual performances were outstanding. Clarence Rick, competing as a twenty, was a double winner in practically every meet. Taro Yamamura, putting the shot for the twenties, also was a consistent winner. The thirties had their individual competitor in Jack Millar in the high jump and discus, Willard Krogh in both hurdles, and Omelka and Harrison, middle-distance men. For the tens, George Sakakihara was outstanding. The lightweight trackmen were given little chance of winning any one of the three P. A. L titles. However, only a handful of the entire squad will be missing next year, and, with a year's experience and the coaching of Ned Johns, many of the members may develop into outstanding competitors. In spite of the oustanding pitching of Walter Dembroge, the Palo Alto baseball team has experienced only aver- age success during the 1938 season. As the deadline for the Madrono was approaching, Coach Hod Ray's nine had one victory In three P. A. L. games to its credit. This was an extra-inning 9 to 8 triumph over Burlingame. How- ever, late season games may have seen Palo Alto placing high in the league standings in spite of a slow start. Dem- broge has allowed but four hits to San Jose, Sequoia, and Burlingame, having struck out eleven San Jose play- ers. However, only against Burlingame did he receive sufficient support, and so Palo Alto lost to the other two teams, 7-3 and 3-2 respectively. In the practice season, however, only two opponents proved superior out of ten games. Fremont swept a three-game series and Santa Clara won, 6-1; but these defeats were matched by vic- tories over San Jose Tech and the Alumni, two triumphs over Mountain View, and one win in two games against Menlo J. C. The line-up of the Viking team includes Dem- broge, pitcher; Sonnicksen, catcher; Crawford, first base; Ritscher, second base; Nicewonger and Bearsby, third base; Bewick, short stop; Butts, left field; Ostrom and Steffen, center field; and Janovich and Nelson, right field. Only three, Ostrom, Nicewonger, and Nelson, graduate. BASEBALL TENNIS i Seven boys represented Palo Alto on the tennis courts this year, turning in a remarkably successful season. Led by Captain Jack Chappie and coached by Delmar Isreal, the local team was not defeated by any high school, and lost only to the Stanford Frosh and San Mateo J. C. One-sided victories over Menlo J. C. and Burlingame were the highlights of the season. Against Burlingame, Andrew Roberts defeated Jack Joost, state boys' cham- pion. The squad was unique in that each one of the seven members was evenly matched. In another match they also defeated San Jose, 5 to 0, and with only San Mateo re- maining on the schedule, the team was favored to win the P. A. L. title. Andrew Roberts was first singles player during the season; Hal Lamb was second singles; Ben Olsen was third; Captain Jack Chappie and David Patterson were first doubles; and Carr Neel and Don Neil- son were second doubles. Out of this number, Roberts, Patterson, Neel, Neilson, and Capt. Chappie will all gradu- ate. However, ample reserve material, along with return- ing veterans Lamb and Olsen, should provide Palo Alto with another successful tennis team in 1939. Scores for the different matches held during the season were Palo Alto 5, Burlingame 0; Palo Alto 6, Menlo J. C. 2; Palo Alto 2, Stanford Frosh 7; Palo Alto I, San Mateo J. C. 4; Palo Alto 5, San Jose 0. TENNIS TEAM—Hogc. Neel. Olsen, Chappie, Lamb, Roberts, Wise, Neil- son, Patterson, Hoffman.

At the time when the Madrono went to press, the Viking swimmers were undefeated and were favored to win both P. A. L. and N. C. S. titles. Outstanding during the sea- son have been Smith, 220 and 50; Wylie, breaststroke; Captain Mustain, backstroke; Manwaring, 50; Slater, 220; Wuthman and Back, 100; and Kelley, Darsie, and Reeves. As usual, Palo Alto and Sequoia ruled most of the events in the P. A. L. meet for lightweight swimmers. In the thirties class, Palo Alto was first with Sequoia second; and for the twenties the order was just reversed, with Sequoia winning. The championship 30's were led by Hoyt, first in the 100; McClain, first in the backstroke; and Ramsey, winner in the diving. Other point-winners were Captain Blatt, McKaig, Keeler, Hight, Nichols, and Nelson. For the twenties Allen was the only first-place man, winning the breaststroke. Other points were scored by Captain Bailey, Norby, Smith, Petty, Goodenough, and Daley. p x SWIMMING WATER POLO Water polo, as usual, enjoyed a successful season at Palo Alto. Rather inconspicuously a far as the student body was concerned, the team braved fall winds to turn in a season marred only by two defeats from Sequoia. Proba- bly the outstanding victory of the season was their win over the Stanford Frosh, the first time in history. In other practice games Coach Fraser's team lost to the California and San Jose State frosh, which proved to be older and more experienced teams. Quick work was made, how- ever, of San Jose, Burlingame, and San Mateo, Sequoia being the only team in the P. A. L. to prove superior to the Paly aggregation. With a team composed almost en- tirely of seniors, the Redwood City team won both games by scant margins. Players who saw action and were out- standing threats were Wuthman and Barnsley at forward positions; Manwaring at sprint; Nickel at guard; and Manning at center back. Ed Manning led the scoring in almost every game and scored every goal in the Stanford frosh game. An abundance of material will be available for next year's team.

Hockey, under the new color system, got off to a favor- able start with a turnout of about forty girls. Ray Field, deserted by the boys' football team because of the newly-constructed gridiron, was used during the season. Failing to have enough members for a complete team, the Blues were divided by the other groups, the Maroons, Greens, and Browns. Captain June Gilkey led the Green team in carrying off the championship. Playdays were held with Burlingame, Sequoia, and Castilleja. The Vi- queens won the Burlingame series and split with Sequoia and Castilleja. All- star selections were as follows: Clara Nystrom, Betty Jarchow, Laura Smith, Sylvia Parr, Cleora Hanna in the forward rank; Barbara Nelson and Heather i Whitton in the fullback position; Pat Clark, Rachel Ste- koll, and Elizabeth Ellet at halfbacks; and Hazel Benson, goalie. Honorable mention went to Esther Lentos, Am- brosine Currier, June Gilkey, and Marion Lawrance. Much credit should be given Marion Lawrance, who HOCKEY supervised hockey this year. SWIMMING VOLLEYBALL With a small but talented turnout, girls' swimming was held only in the fall, being discontinued as a spring sport as in past years. Although only six were on the team, several meets were held during the season. Meets were held with Castilleja and Stanford, as well as several intra-squad competitions. The best times were turned in by Betty Berryman, who was clocked In 14 seconds in the 25-yard freestyle and 34 seconds in the fifty. Miss Collins coached the team. Volleyball had the largest turnout of the year, with ap- proximately ninety-five girls. Because of this large num- ber, the color teams were divided into A and B groups. All-stars, chosen at the end, included Laura Smith, Barbara Nelson, Jessie Burns, Ann Whitman, Mar- ion Band, and Janice Creech. Honorable mention: Heather Whitton, Lorena Watts, Clara Nystrom, Hazel Benson, Cleora Hanna, and Betty Jarchow. A Sports-day was held with Sequoia on April 30. Jane Jillson was head of volleyball.

Basketball, one of the most popular girls’ sports, had its usual large turnout. Besides the inter-club games, sports days were held with Castilleja and Sequoia, and a demonstration was given at the new junior high school. Because of the large turnout, there was a division be- tween the beginners and advanced players, each group coming out on different days. In the A group the Browns, captained by Betty Berryman, took the champion- ship, with the Greens giving them a close battle. The champions of the B group were the Blues, led by Rachel Stekoll, after defeating the Greens, II to 10. The other captains were A group—Greens, Elizabeth Ellet; Maroons, Margaret Schilling; and Mixed, Mary Baird; B group—Greens, Jessie Gaspar; Maroons, Ida Stelling; and Browns, Wilma Arjo. All-star for the A group were Betty Berryman, Laura Smith, Cleora Hanna, Betty Jar- chow, Jessie Burns, Pat Clark, Barbara Nelson, Mariorr Lawrance, and Ann Whitman. For the B team the fol- lowing were all-stars: Marion Christiansen, Ida Stelling, Betty Hooker, Shirley Taylor, Esther Lentos, Wilma Arjo, Muriel Roberts, Rachel Stekoll, and Jessie Gaspar. BASKETBALL TENNIS BASEBALL Under the management of Bette Sheridan, tennis became a successful sport of the season. Teams were composed of the four color clubs, Brown, Blue, Green, and Maroon. Single ladders were used during the club competition, af- ter which the most outstanding players combined for doubles tournaments. Matches were held against Castil- leja, San Jose, Campbell, Los Gatos, Sequoia, San Mateo, Burlingame, and Gilroy in various sportsdays. The captains, who were in change of the ladders, roll call, and the points earned by each girl, were Lotte Martens, Elizabeth McCollum, Margaret Millar, and Helen Hahlbeck. Baseball, played with a soft ball, was under the direction of Myfanwy Hughes. Because the Maroons failed to have a sufficient number of participants for a full team, they were divided among the Blue, Brown, and Green color teams. Competition among the three teams was held af- ter school twice a week. Sportsdays were held with Mountain View and Sequoia. The captains for the three teams were Phyllis Michel, Blues; Angelena Pappas, Greens; and Laura Smith, Browns.
