' Liwxam M' Inspires and Encourages Students On behalf of the Associated Student Body of Pioneer High School, the members of the 1968 TORCH staff respectfully dedicate this yearbook to a teacher who has been a source of inspiration to all who have been given the opportunity to know him. Berkeley, California is his birthplace, and it is there that he went to school and spent his early years. He majored in business in his first few years of college, but later turned to his favorite subject, history. He received a Masters degree from California State College at Berkeley in 1957. He became proficient in Spanish during a tour of duty in South America where he served as a missionary for the Mormon church. As an active member of the church he enjoys working with various youth groups. He derives much enjoyment from such spectator sports as football and rarely misses our school competitions. An outstanding ping-pong player, he challenges all comers when the occasion arises. In 1959 he and his wife Nadine moved to Whittier with their two children. Since coming to Pioneer in 1960 he has taught U.S. History to thousands of students in such a manner that makes the subject live in their imaginations. His favorite expression, and one which he uses frequently in his classes is, 'LHistory is to a nation what memory is to a manf, He is a man who shows a deep concern for human welfare and his nature reflects an interested regard for others, especially his students. His consistent sense of responsibility and devotion to young people sets an excellent example for his fellow teachers and inspires his students to emulate his precepts. It is with great respect and deep gratitude for all that he has given us that the 1968 TORCH is dedicated to. . . Mr. Delbert Rock history classes. 0 Impromptu discussion and question and answer periods help create an at- mosphere of student interest in U.S. A me N K W .MMS 3 ,igjify Y 1 ff in 57 Klip 5 m Lk il F WAX , . 1 A V ,p,Zf1dfcft.' f X7 ' 47M N 'fray MMZZ' C!

Pepsters Generate Enthusiasm Early in the summer the Songleaclers begin preparing themselves for the school year, making up routines to most of the standard school songs. The 1967-68 Songleaders also worked to make money which would help pay their way to camp. A bottle drive and a H1920 Bikini Car Washl, netted each girl about 359.00 to help pay expenses. The hills above Santa Cruiz, California, set the scene for our Songleaders' summer training camp. Here they gained experience and new ideas to aid them in the coming year. Gayle Chase, Head Songleader, who represents the group on cabi- net, says that, During the year the Songleaders attend every league game in football and basketball, help plan for pep rallies, and are each individually active in extra curricular clubs and activities. ,- The pepsters hold their breath in the excitement of a touchdown .... Is the kick good? It's good! . . . The crowd reacts with enthusiasm, the band strikes up, and the Yell Leaders run back to lead the happy rooters in victory cheers. Peppy Liz Ramos, a Yell Leader, is no exception to the fact that this year's pep- sters were full of vitality. 10 Tim Branham, Titan quarterback, received a gin- gerbread man wearing his own uniform number 'rom an i ic'an . n e 'v e ore e n t S dW kl clO th da,bf thloh Glenn game each member of the football team re- ceived a cookie from the pepsters. it f I 5 I Song Leaders and Yell Leaders Keep Titans Cheering During Sports Events Our six fun-loving yell leaders have devoted many hours alter school to organize Pioneer's spirit, Their duty of boosting our teams on to victory has not always been an easy job. They organized pep rallies. made up new yells, and spent long hours after school learning them. They did quite a bit toward organizing a good cheering section, making it one of the best Pioneer has ever seen. Good yell leaders donlt just happen overnight. During the suinincr our squad went to training camp at Redlands University. At cainp they did justice to the Pioneer name fl g'Come on, really yellll' encourages Chris Richardson and Marty liozano, two spirited ineinbers of the yell leading squad. Tully Titan. the school,s mascot, is learning to be a yell leader too. and brought back several awards, in- cluding one third-place ribbon which the yell leaders hold inost remarkable of all. This was earned one day after poor Liz Ramos had stubbed her toe. She eouldn't perform so the remaining four struggled through their routine without her, and the Titan Yell Lead- ers were most surprised to find they had rated third out ol fourteen other schools. 7 K K T ,rf I Y ,aff LE h . ., 1 fir' T N ern I 4 , nw, , ta--f' 7 'N i f 'il T is M an-5' 71' ..1gQf1 aims f, N Wgkl S1 I' ff gferg K -' 4 I l if!

Zgwiai Tradition of Bee Cheerleaders Revived Liz Rodriguez Karen Stabile Chris Valle This year the Titans revived an old tradition, ab- sent frorn Pioneer since l962, by bringing back HBee cheerleaders. The cheerleaders were chosen at the end of last year by a coininittee of teachers and pep- sters on the basis of personality, poise, pep, and ability. Also figuring in their selection were citizenship and academic grades. Head 4'Bee', cheerleader for ,67-'68 was Liz Rodri- guez. Liz, a Junior, was responsible for niany unusual and interesting signs which kept popping up on campus just before Bee games. Chris Valle was the Hquietn ineniber of the squad -except during a garne or pep rally, when she would really let go, as would Chris Shubin. This Chris could really generate spirit, for which the successful MBees were happy! Bouncy Karen Stabile was one for jump- ing around, especially when she got excited over a touchdown or basket made by our guysf' Short, blonde Mindy Dixon rounded out the group with her all-around, ever-present pep and spirit. All-in-all, the Bees', were a welcome and success- ful addition to Pioneer's Pep Squad. Chris Shubin Mindy Dixon i Flagsters Add Dash of Color at Games and Assemblies The 1967-'68 flagsters did an outstanding job this year, attending all the football and basketball games and adding their spirit to that of the rest of the pepsters. Under the leadership of head flagster Nancy Stoughton, they worked out and learned many routines, often in a very short time. It was easy to tell that they enjoyed their jobs, because they were always ready to go, and if they dropped a flag occasionally, it didnlt matter. They really helped keep things going!

Majorettes Add Dazzle to Parades and Games N'-J' The duties of a majorette are numerous and varied. Besides attending all games, they are re- quired to perform at pep rallies, pep assemblies, and parades. Often the girls are asked to make up new routines on short notice, which is quite a prob- lem. Working out and perfec- tion of marching and twirling routines is a time-Consuming job. In order to perform well, much practice is needed. Every- one must agree that Gwen and Debbie have done a great job this year. Gwen Scifres, Head Majorette Gwen and Debbie pose with their betasseled batons before going into action at a football game. Pioneerfs majorettes, Gwen Scifres and Debbie Threadgill, are two hard- working and conscientious girls who seem to thoroughly enjoy their jobs as pepsters. Gwen, a Junior, has been a majorette since her freshman year, and is currently serving her first year as head. She has studied baton for a number of years, and is becoming even more proficient as time goes on. Gwen is active in rrgany things around school, including Junior Class Council and Yearbook Staf . Debbie, a Freshman, is serving her first year on PiHi's Pep Squad. She has done an excellent job in her new position, and shows a great deal of promise toward being an important member of the pepsters in the future. Serving with the girls on Pep Squad is 'Tuffy 'l'itan', a mascot made from the skill and pep of loyal Titans. Tuffy is always around to add ithat certain something, to PiHi pep. Debbie Threadgill Being a majorette involves much work and attendance at count- less parades, but Gwen and Debbie seem to enjoy the job. l Peppy 4Tuffy Titanl, Pioneerls mascot. was always present at games to help keep spirit up to par.

The Titanettes, whose purpose is to promote school spirit and represent Pioneer to the very best degree, also sponsored such things as a bottle drive to raise money for parade entry fees. Among the many awards won by the Drill Team were: first runner up at the Chaffey parade, second place at the Hawthorne parade, and first place at the Whittier Homecoming Parade. They also participated in the West Arcadia and Whittier Christmas parades, and the Baldwin Park parade, where they won first place.

Year Highlighted by Unusual Assemblies 1967-'68 was one of the best years in Pioneer's history for assem- blies. Under the direction of Assemblies Chairman Lance Carlson, the assembly schedule was enlarged and rounded out to include better and more interesting programs. In addition to regular pep assemblies, Lance scheduled many unusual programs for the entertainment of the Titans. By far the most unusual assembly ever held at Pioneer featured a talk by Communist Dr, Georgi Velikovski. Velikovski spent a regular assembly period haranguing the students on the evils of the capitalis- tic way of life and the comparative beauties of the communistic system. The students refused to accept this point of view, and re- jected the speaker. After building up the tension to an extreme de- gree, the speaker revealed his true identity as George Veliotis, a Santa Barbara restaurant owner. Alarmed by the apathy of many Americans toward Communism, Mr. Veliotis decided to pose as a Communist and attempt to arouse the sympathies of American youth against the Red Menace. Both faculty and students agreed that this was the most interesting and refreshing assembly they had seen for a long while. Also included in the 1967-'68 assembly schedule were the Tim Morgon Assembly, a talk by Dave Grant on problems of today's teenagers, a show featuring a rock group known as The Knackf' and a special pep assembly with three of UCLA's '5Bruin yell lead- ers. Other assembly programs included an appearance by Negro Spiritual singer Jester Hairston, band and choir assemblies, and the annual award presentation. Thanks to good organization and planning with the likes and dislikes of the students in mind, there were very few complaints and many compliments on this year's assemblies. One of the most unusual assemblies ever presented on the Pioneer cam- pus featured a Gommunist,' speaker, Dr. Georgi Velikovski, who ac- quainted the Titans with a rather radical viewpoint. After being soundly rejected by the students, he revealed his identity as George Veliotes, an American restaurant owner from Santa Barbara. W sa tt lt 5 was S -V ,.

On February 23, Titans again gathered to hear Dave Grant speak on the matters which concern today's teen- agers. Showing his usual enthusiasm for the subject on which he spoke, Mr. Grant emphasized the importance of self respect and knowing who you are and where you're going. As his talk pertained to things with which Titans could identify, Mr. Grant was well received by everyone and left with wishes of all Titans for his return next year. The Knackf' a rock group featured at one of PiHi's as- semblies, specialized in spoofing popular groups. Included in their repertoire, were imitations of such well-known groups as the Beatles, Stones, BeeGees and the Monkees. Their original approach and good humored gibes made for a very entertaining assembly. The Homecoming Assembly featured the presentation of candidates for Homecoming Queen to the student body. This was the largest assembly of the year, as it included the entire student body and alumni who had returned for Homecoming Day.

Courtroom Drama Involves Members of Audience Ayn Rand's 'cThe Night of January 16th, a taut court- room drama, was the major project of the Thespian Soci- ety for the Fall, 1967. The play, which takes place in a courtroom, was unusual in that the audience was able to participate in reaching a verdict. In the opening scenes the bailiff stepped forward and read off the names of twelve members of the audience to serve as jurors. These people were escorted to the stage where they remained for the en- tire performance and listened to the testimony. They were then asked to deliver a verdict. During the run of the play which included four performances there were three verdicts of not guilty and one verdict of guilty. Dialogue throughout the drama took the form of testi- mony tp provide a most interesting and unusual evening's entertainment. During the questioning of a hostile witness, the District At- torney, played by Allen Desrnaretz, gestures menacingly as he emphasizes a point. His client Karen Andre, portrayed by Diane McKain, contemplates the outcome of the ques- tioning.

Thespians Produce Comic-Melodrama Way, Way Off Broadvvayn Way, Way Off Broadway, a comic melodrama, was one in a list of accom- plishments made by the Thespians this year. Written by Betty Tracy Huff, the play offered many unusual character parts which the Thespians found challenging. In addition to being presented at the Thespian banquet, the play ran five per- formances for English classes and was en- tered in the third annual high school Play Festival at Cerritos College. It was also presented to enthusiastic audiences at the Carnival. According to the drama coach, Mr. Whatley, The play was an excellent ve- hicle for Pioneer Thespian talents and a great satisfaction to all who participated in it. Because I'm your boss! replies Phil Mc- Murtrey when asked why Ken Roberts should untie him. This reply assured fast action and also the defeat of the villain, Von Cliche. An appropriately evil grimace graces the face of Allen Desmaretz as he views the plight of Phil McMurtrey and listens to the approaching milk train.

Following the matinee debut were two other performances on Friday night and on Saturday night. All three shows drew large crowds who were over- whelmingly enthusiastic in their acceptance of the show. Co-authored by Pi Hi's musical director, Mr. Orr, and Mr. Whatley, drama advisor, the musical featured well-known songs from various hit shows. Among the many tunes which livened the plot of the melodrama were, 'gPoor Jud is Daid, You Gan't Get a Man With a Gun, and i'Rosie.

The nianv interesting and unusual photos drew many comments and mueh attention to the Photo Depart- ment. The 1957 Pioneer Fine Arts Festival ineluded the Industrial Arts and Art Festivals as part of the overall show. The shows were open during the day for the students and during the eve- ning for adults. The different categories were judged by faeulty members from other sehools and the winners were awarded rib- bons. Four ribbons were given in each category. Sculpture took on some rather odd and interesting forms and shapes as the artist tried out various materials and sub- jeet matter. Une of the favorite subjeets seemed to be the human body, which was displayed in nianv unusual situa- tions and positions. The ceramics section was crowded with niany strange and varied items. Along with the odd-shaped vases and jars were plaques, bowls, and a tiny statue of a Hotai Dollf, used in Eastern worship as a symbol of good luck.

Among those slated on the calendar was the mock football game put on by the faculty. The women teachers posed as football players while the men participated by portraying song and yell leaders. It provoked hilarious laughter from the spectators and was remembered as one of the most enjoyable pep rallies of the season. Pep VVeek started with a wagon race put on by the freshman class and ended with a senior pep rally. The theme for the senior rally was get rid of your trash by throwing it at La Serna's mascot. La Serna drew the dubious honor of being Pioneer,s rival for the week. , ig .iie 'g Z1 Junior-Senior Prom Gala Atmosphere l The 1968 Junior-Senior Prom, with its therne of Mardi l Gras in lNIay, was the final and crowning social event of lthe 1967-'68 school year.

Club Week remedied that with most club memberships going to new highs. All clubs on campus participated, building booths to emphasize the activities of their particular clubs. Each club was assigned a certain day to present its booth, and the best clubs of each day, according to popular vote, was asked to compete for Club of the Week on Friday. Spirit and interest ran high as all of the clubs vied for recognition and cash prizes. Pep Club members worked hard at their display at which they sold if school pep items.

German Exchange Teacher Sponsors Club French Club Serves French Food During Club Week Le Club Francais, better known around Pioneer as French Club, is one of the smaller clubs on campus, but the members make up for the small size of the club by their enthu- siasm for their activities. Among the many French Club activities were a trip to the Los Angeles Art Museum and sponsorship of a French restaurant booth for Club Week. The restaurant was a great success, although for some unknown reason, snails, that famous French stand-by, were not served.

Pioneer's rollicking German Club, headed by President Faye Johnson and advisor Mr. Heinemann, had one of the best booths on campus during first an- nual Club Week. The Deutsch Club booth featured German music and an armchair tour of Germany through maps of the country and boundless in- formation given by club members. German Club is made up of students who are interested in Germany and its culture. German classes are not neces- sary in order to be a member, although some of the spirited conversation to be had in German Club meetings is in that language.

Spanish Club Aids Needy Families of Tijuana The Spanish Club, one of the largest organizations on campus, has to its credit a noteworthy and charitable achievement, Prior tc- the Christmas holidays, the members held a food drive to Collect canned goods for the needy families in the Mexican border town of Tijuana. Donating rnueh effort and a good portion of their own vacation time to this project, club members delivered in excess ol two hundred dollars worth of food to a distribution center in Ti- juana. Soon after their return to school from the Christmas holidays, the club members received a letter of gratitude from the Secretary for the diocese of Tijuana on behalf of the Bishop for their kind gesture. This, among other numerous accomplishments of the Spanish Club, has served to make a most worthwhile year for its members.

The band en- tertained with such popular songs as Hey, Look Me Over, Every- thing's Coming Up Roses, uOn to Victory, and the Pioneer High Fight Song. Under the leadership of Mr. Dorch and the student director Gary Nottingham, the pep band helped to make pep rallies and bas- ketball games more exciting and entertaining. Field Trip Club Promotes Interest in Dramatic Events I iilfs' One of the most highly active clubs on campus this year was the Field Trip Club. It was organized for the purpose of taking trips to worthwhile mo- vies, plays, and other cultural activities. Because of the size of the group, they often save money on transportation costs, and receive group rates for admissions. Among the many interesting and infor- mative trips taken by the club was one to View the movie, A Klan For All Seasons at the Hollywood Wilshire Theatre. They visited Melodyland The- atre to see Funny Girl, and attended a re-run of the all-time classic, Gone With The Wind,', at the Carthay Circle in Hollywood. Expenses for these trips are paid for by the members. Transportation is often furnished by parents who have their admis- sion ticket paid for in exchange for driving a car full of members to the event. Members of the Field Trip Club meet to plan excursions. Seated: Tory Schroeder, Chris Gilbert ftreasurerj, Marilyn Skripp Csecretaryj. Standing: Janet Percy, Georgiann Pantos, Shirley Whitcomb.

Swain as an extension of classes in electronics. The members repair discarded radios, or radios and TV sets sent in by friends and members of the faculty. Membership is comprised of boys who have had ex- perience in or interest in electronics. Many of the club's members take up a career in the field of elec- tronics. Auto Club members meet weekly to discuss and work on cars brought to them by friends or faculty members. Aside from repairing autos, they also buy and rebuild old discarded ones. Among their many activities contributing to the extra-curricular area of the school is aiding the Boys' League with its annual Car Show. This year the Auto Club also distinguished itself by winning an award for Most Popular Club during the first annual Club Week festivities. Activities Club is a very important and influential club on campus. Headed by Ruthie Glenn, they plan and execute all of the details for all A.S.B. sponsored events. Among the many successful activi- ties planned by the club are the Donkey basketball game, the carnival, the Fall and Spring Flings, and numerous dances. The work entailed in preparing for these events is often time consuming and tedi- ous, but according to their advisor, Mr. Rhodes, they are a dedicated group who devote themselves to worthwhile and meaningful extracurricular activities for the benefit of students at Pioneer.

Publicity Club Keeps Titans Informed Publicity Club made its existence known in many obvious ways during the year by the presence of colorful and imaginative posters and banners publi- cizing school events. From the first foot- ball game of the year to the Senior Fare- well Breakfast, the original ideas of Bobbi Aboe, chairman of the club, had been put into effect and graphically pro- claimed to all Titans, events taking place on campus. Bobbi and her crew had the responsibility of preparing ban- ners, posters, and handbills publicizing such events as the musical, dramatic productions, and the carnival. Once a month Bobbi met with publicity chair- men from other high schools to ex- change information on school activities. A finance club member works in the boys' gym ticket booth selling tickets to a home basketball game. aff- Kr . The Finance Club officers and their advisor, Mr. Clayton, were instrumental in planning for selling tickets for all Titan games and dances. lvfany long hours and numerous meetings of these people led to efficient, well-organized handling of the finances Finance Club Serves at School Events Finance Club is organized primarily to sell tickets and work at all of Pioneer's games and dances. The club meets Thursday at 8:05 a.m. in BE 200 on the weeks that games or dances are planned. The meet- ings are held to plan for the selling of tickets and con- cessions at the events. The club has approximately thirty-three active members, making it one of the larger clubs on campus.

XVe exemplified a student body that pulled together in all fields to make this year the one you will remember as the best ever! I would like to congratulate the student body and the cabinet on making this year the most outstanding in Pioneer's history.

Boys' and Girls' Council Work As Liaison for Pioneer Students One of the more important aspects of student gov- ernment is Boys, and Girls' Councils. The two groups aid the students by forming an important link be- tween students and the guidance office. When a stu- dent breaks the rules regarding smoking, over-affec- tion, or dress standards, it is brought to the atten- tion of the Boys' or Girls' Council. He is then sum- moned by the Council and is given a warning. The student benefits because this warning is only a warn- ing, is not reported to the Guidance Office, and does not go on the student's permanent record. Girls' Council, under the able leadership of Pres- ident Georgiann Pantos, met every Monday at lunch to discuss problems and plan events. Among these events was a fashion show assembly featuring clothes from the May Co. department store. Another im- portant job of Girls, Council was choosing the Girl of the Month. This year they had outfits for the first time, which they wore each Nlonday. Boys, Council for l967-68 was led by President Claude Miller, who was assisted by Jim Lobnow and Don Harding.

Christine Gilbert Ed Tewes A .Sf H! Select F ew Receive C.S.F., with its motto of Scholarship for Service is an organization for high school students with high scholastic standards. Founded by Charles F. Seymour in 1921, C.S.F. is a statewide club dedicated to help- ing deserving students to secure scholarships to C01- leges and universities of their choice. Since its organi- zation, C.S.F. has accepted over six hundred chapters with a total membership of over thirty thousand. In order to join C.S.F., a student must have ten or more points earned in the previous semester, The point system is organized so that a student earns three points for an A and one point for a HB. D' D Ed Compean lane amey w 'T' CSF. Life Membership Brenda Harrison In order to qualify for life membership in the California Scholarship federation, a student must have maintained con- sistently high scholastic standards throughout high school. Membership in C.S.F. must have been kept for six semesters, with the last semester in the Senior year. Simple though it may seem, in truth, this accomplishment requires dedication to in- tense study. To be named a C.S.F. life member is one of the highest honors which could possibly be accorded any high school stu- dent. This achievement is direct proof of a student's determin- ation and hard work all through his high school career. Being a C.S.F, lifer is an accomplishment of which a student may be proud all his life, and a distinction which he will always carry.

At the beginning of the year the sophomore class officers meet to select from among the rec- ommended students those who will be appointed to the Honor Society.

Among her awards for speech, are first place at Redlands in humorous interpre- tation. After her victory at Redlands, she went to the state competition at Santa Barbara, where she took fifth place in the state. Liz won five levels of competition in the American Legion speech competition, which in- cludes an original speech concerning the Constitution, plus extempora- neous speeches. She also did excellent work in debate, winning several tro- phies with her partner, Barbara Lester. Mrs, Judy Johnston says, 'The Gabby is awarded tothe student deemed best speaker of the year. To qualify, a person is considered according to the following: Quality of presentation, improvement, and working in more than one category of speech? Everyone agrees that Liz is one of the most deserving persons ever to have received the Gabby. Diane Damey, delegate to Girls' State 1967 Diane relates that participation in Girls, State gave her a valuable insight into California state Government as well a better understanding of how other high school students think and react to various political issues, Those brief days of working with students from other schools throughout the State were very rewarding.w says Diane. Wie made many lasting friendships and we did have time to have a lot of fun, toof, One of the outstanding activities was a tour through the state capitol and a glimpse of Governor Reagaifs private offices. The American Legion encourages all students who are interested in participating in their program to talk with their guidance counselors to learn the procedure for application to this worthwhile activity for California's youth. Boys' State was a very profitable experience for Ted. who stated. uljoysi State has been the most valuable and rewarcl- ing experience in my life. The knowledge and inspiration I received will be a great boon to me in future yearsf' Each Ucityu at Boys' State was made up of forty boys. They met daily to discuss problems which occurred in their city. They made laws. levied taxes. and conducted trials. Each night a different program was offered. along with some very excit- ing political rallies. Ted felt that one of the best features of Boys' State was the opportunity to meet with and discuss is- sues and problems with boys from all over the state. Boys' and Girls' State Delegates Learn About California State Government Pioneeris delegates to the 1967 Girls' and Boys' State were Diane Damey and Ted Van Daalen 1Yetters. Diane journeyed to the University of Galiforniais Davis campus, and Ted went to the Sacramento State Fairgrounds. They spent a week at their respective locations along with six hundred other dele- gates from high schools throughout the state of California. The delegates, in accordance with the program of learn- ing about their government, elected city, county, and state officials. They were given a choice of joining one of two Spar- tiesf, the Vihigs or the Tories. Each participant was assigned, appointed. or voted to a specific' post. The Boys, and Girls, State program is sponsored by the American Legion and the Ainerican Legion Auxiliary as an annual event. Students are chosen to represent their high school on the basis of scholarship. school activity participa- tion. and good citizenship. The goal of the program is to help teenagers learn about the political structure of our state by playing an active part in the selection of government officials and by following strict governmental procedure. 'lied Van lilaalen Wetters, delegate to Boys' State 1967 Dear Titans Here I would like to express my thanks to all of you that I eould share with you this wonderful year. It is the greatest experienee of my life. I think it is so wonderful how the students of the sc'hool work to make the visit of a Foreign Exchange Student possible. I am very happy that I had the opportunity to learn, first of all the English language, which is the key to eommunieate with and to understand the people in this eountry. I found everyone very helpful in bringing me over this obstaele. This made it possible for me to adapt to the Ameriean life, which is so different from life in Belgium. Arriving here I wanted to forget everything I previously knew about this eountty and diseover for myself how the American people are and what their eustoms are. Never will I forget how mueh fun it was to do the half- time shows, to learn to play the flute, to mareh in the pa- rades with the band and later play in the c'onc'ert band. This meant the realization of my dreams. I enjoyed the whole year very mueh: football games, band and drill team parades, danees, and many other aetivities. I wish you Titans, good luek in all your future aetivities. Now that this wonderful and unforgettable year is going to its end it is hard to good-bye to all my Ameriean friends. The memory of you will always stay lively in my mind and I will tell my friends in Belgium mueh about you and how wonderful is the Ameriean Field Service program. Ann Van Houtte Foreign Exchange Students Express Gratitude to AFS. for Opportunity to Learn of Gther Nations It has been sinee August that I was in Nonyay, but I am still excited about it. All that was foreign in Norway kept me busy learning about it, Hundreds of mountains topped with snow, deep fertile valleys. tiny farms generations old, and the dramatic fjords all stand out as representative of Norway. Yet what proved to be more fascinating was the people themselves. Troll folklore. the Viking age, and past history all have had a great deal to do with making the Norwegians sueh an interesting and wonderful people. By developing an understanding of another people I was able to understand the Americans and their problems better. All of us who were abroad this summer have returned with a strong desire to help Ameriea with her problems instead of looking over them and just offering our eritieism. Another insight I developed this summer was one of my- self. Being entirely on my own among people I had never known before foreed me to examine myself. Although this ean be a painful proeess I think I really benefited from having a ehanee to recognize my interests, goals, and beliefs. My summer in Norway was made possible by all tho-se people who so generously have supported the Ameriean Field Serviee at Pioneer and aeross the United States and around the world. I would like to thank all of them very mueh. Con- tinued interest in organizations sueh this is what is needed to reaeh eventual world peace. Brenda Harrison A... we 2' w-, J t .

Aggressive Play Takes Varsity Footballers to Third Place The 1967-'68 Varsity football team spent a rough season, finishing in a hard- won third place berth in the Suburban League. The Titans, who met some strong new competitors and renewed old rivalries, turned in a season record of four wins, four losses, and one tie. Coached by Mr. Lou Borg, head coach, and assistant coaches, Mr. Phillips and Mr. Kelly, the Varsity team consistently played to win. As for next year, Coach Borg is hopeful for a stronger Varsity showing. Mr. Borg says, The team will be losing some important senior players, but there are many outstanding and promising team members who will be juniors and seniors next year who should provide the punch for a great team next year.

The 605 teams are comprised of students in the Rio Hondo and Cerritos junior College areas, with Rio Hondo as the North team and Cerritos as the South. Players are nominated by their high school coaches, and the nominations are submitted to the coaches of the North and South. Each of these Coaches then selects thirty players, with five alternates for each team. Any player who makes an All-league team is automatically nom- inated for the 605 team. Tommy Castro, Steve Clark, and Doug Redican were chosen to play for the North team. Tommy was distinguished by being assigned two positions, defensive halfback, and offensive split end. Doug was chosen second quarterback, and Steve was assigned the position of of- fensive guard. Due to the many schools who partici- pated in this event, it is a distinct honor to any one school which places three athletes on this team. These players and their coaches deserve many congratula- tions for their outstanding accomplish- ment. -K. 5 J , K 4, t 1, it . ?'

A runner must be able to hold his strength in reserve for a long run rather than use it at the beginning of the race. A large amount of training is necessary in order to get into shape to compete in the cross country event. Beginning with short runs of one to five miles per day, a student must work up to distances of ten to fifteen miles per day. This rigorous practice schedule builds strength and endurance necessary to hold out in competition. At a cross-country meet, different events are held ranging from one to two and one-half miles.

Varsity Posts Nine Wins in League Play Beginning the season with a strong 65 to 56 win over Mark Keppel, and a 72 to 65 win over YN'hitticr, the Titans found this year's Tourney play tough as they dropped 7 games in the Cal-Hi-La Habra and Pioneer tournaments. Although the Titans were 12 and 13 on the season, 8 of those 13 losses were very close. Pioneer improved greatly as the season progressed and finished with a strong 9-5 and 'ffl' 3rd place in the Suburban League. The Varsity Cagers won the last five games of the sea- son and hope to extend this winning streak into the 1968- 69 campaign. Coach Kemp states that, 'fWe are looking forward to next season, as he will welcome five returning letter win- ners and a number of players from his year's championship Bee team. Player Fga Fgm Pct.

It involves, more than any other sport, a great deal of coordination, balance, and skill. Also an important factor in gymnastics com- petition is endurance, which is necessary to hold the taut positions reached in the various moves.

The pair of Ojeda and Esparza is one of the top doubles groups in the Varsity tennis team. Varsity top man Bob Pippin demonstrates tremendous skill and U l agility in his backhand return of a fast serve from a Glenn f'Eagle. Due to tough compet1t1on and the fact that many of the season's games were played under a handicap, the Varsity and JV tennis teams had a hard fight making their respective ways to 6th and 5th place berths in the Suburban League. 1 Varsity Coach Briones has much higher hopes for the tennis team,s success next year, E stating, The strength of the team should be ,4- yi rather uniform next year. Bob Pippin, Don Allen, and Danny Garcia should be the strong- ' est returning players.

PiHi's golf team is comprised of a group of enthusiastic golfers who very much intend to put Pioneer on the map as far as golf is concerned. Led by Coach Garry Wilken, the two squads met Sub- urban League schools which had golf teams. Matches are scheduled against John Glenn, La Serna, Monte Vista, Sierra, and Neff. At deadline time, no matches have been played, but both Varsity and Junior Varsity teams show strong potential and excellent promise for the future. Mike Dong Bill Elliot Most golf courses in the Whit- tier area are familiar to Pioneer's golfers. Many of their matches are played at Candlewood Coun- try Club, Whittier Narrows Golf Course, or La Mirada Country Club. At left: Pil-li Varsity golf- er Mike Rosen lines up a shot at Whittier Narrows as teammates Rick Canzoneri, Greg McMahan, and Al Rosen look on. J.V. Golfers Show Promise of Outstanding Season of Competition Golf is unlike any other sport in which high schools compete. It requires, as do other sports, intense concentration, but there the similarity ends. Golf is not a spec- tator sport in the same sense as other high school sports. An essential element in a golf match is quiet, because any distraction could cause a messy shot, which might well throw the match. Despite the fact that golf is not as popular as football or basket- ball, most high school golf teams, Pioneer's included, have a small but loyal group of supporters who may be counted on to be at all matches possible. Among the many matches in which PiHi golfers will compete this year are Sub- urban League games and certain special invitational tournaments. One of these is held every year at the DeBell Golf Course in Burbank. Sponsored by the Burbank Optimist Club, it will be held this year on April 11, for all C.I.F. high schools in Southern California. Pioneer's golfers hold high hopes of coming home from this and all other matches with another victory for PiHi. Y ' . . . .ff 44 ,'wWi??i,. -. .14- li3!'t?'

Knowledge of the basics of sports, good sportsmanship, and devel- opment of good health patterns through exercise and teamwork are objectives stressed in G.A.A. activities. Included in the program are such team sports as tennis, track, tumbling, volleyball, modern dance, and basketball. Any girl wishing to compete in intermural sports may join G.A.A,, which meets two to three days a week after school. If a girl goes out for two sports in the G.A.A. program, she may sign up for sixth period gym. In this program, a girl may specialize in two sports, work- ing on one sport each semester. This also enables many girls to in- crease their proficiency in sports in which they are most interested, rather than participating in a number of sports they do not enjoy. According to a Pioneer girls' P.E. teacher, The Girls Athletic As- sociation helps build attitudes of good sportsmanship and develops body skills which are an aid to more healthful living. The G.A.A. program has proven itself beneficial to all participants.

In auto shop boys learn about the mechanical functions of each working part, how to make repairs, and improve on auto performance. As part of their class activity students work on their own cars or on cars brought in for repairs by friends and members of the faculty. Their expert work is in evidence in the number of smoothly running cars seen around the Pioneer parking lot. Below, seniors Rod Pool and Rich Lairmore reassemble a distributor which they had dismantled for repairs.

They held a play school for younger brothers and sisters of the students, and during this activity, they studied human behavior through the activity of the preschool students, During the course of the experiment, the children participated in such activities as finger painting, easel painting, indoor-out- door games, music, and others. According to some of the Senior girls who worked on this program, it was a most profitable experience for everyone. Above, Abby Ruval- caba and Rose Camino oversee a finger painting session.

Both are outstanding art students and both plan to attend art school fol- lowing graduation. Lance and Linda have many ar- tistic accomplishments to their credit. Linda has won awards with her original work in the Fine Arts Festival, and has had many of her creations purchased from a local shop which acts as her agent. Lance has designed many of the eye-catching posters seen around campus, and has prepared program covers, designed bro- chures and other art work for the print shop. Many of his commer- cial designs have won awards at the Fine Arts Festival. In addition, as art editor for the TORCH, Lance designed all of the divider pages, much of the layouts and the 1968 TORCH cover.

It is a required course for any student who plans to study medicine, engineering, dentistry, or any other science field. In Pioneer physics classes, stu- dents work in laboratory groups to study the basic principles of sub- jects such as motion, force, pow- er, energy, attraction and repul- sion, sound, and atomic structure. Along with lab work, teachers give classroom demonstrations to help clarify some of these complex prin- ciples. Most students who enroll in physics courses at Pioneer also study trigonometry concurrently. Prerequisites for physics are alge- bra I, geometry, algebra II and chemistry. A grade average of C or better must be earned in these classes to qualify for physics.

Brenda and Don have been uetive in a vari- ety of school events throughout their high sehool eareers. Both have been active rnernbers of the Titan Marching Band since their Freshman year, In addi- tion to her band work, Brenda has found time to serve on elass councils for four years, and also to spend a summer in Norway as Pioneer's A.F.S. representa- tive. Don has also served in stu- dent government and has worked with Mr. Orr and Ti- tan Tones since his Freshman year. Both Brenda and Don plan to study musie after high school. Brenda would like to be a music teacher, and Don has not revealed his plans beyond college. All Titans must agree that these two are most deserving of their title, and are Certainly bound to fulfill the prophecy. we P' Suzanne Garvin Eddie Garza Raymond Gasca Susan Geary 'ilff in 'Www-in Christine Gilbert Kathie Gilweit Rand Glesener Ruthie Glenn Armando C.

Both are well-known for their zany personalities, which they are never reluctant to show. As a yell leader in her Junior year, Michelle was always the one to yell the loudest, jump the highest, and root the hardest, just to get the crowd a little more excited. Also remembered from her yell-leading days is the time Michelle turned up in an assembly with her hair in ringlets. Allen, on the other hand is most iFamous, for his super-spy routine with its crazy gadgets up to and including a Htelephone-shoew a'la Maxwell Smart. Also a part of Allerfs personality is his camera, which he is never without. Both Michelle and Allen have done their bit toward making things a little brighter around PiHi, and for that, we are all grateful.

Senior Homemaking is a special course designed to give senior girls knowledge of family planning, marriage prob- lems, child care, and other facets of family life. In this class, girls with previous experience in homemaking do more ad- vanced work in all parts of home economics. In addition to the family planning section, study and actual experience is offered in gourmet cooking, sewing and tailoring, and fash- ion, Outside speakers are often invited to talk to the girls on subjects such as correct hair styling and make-up, figure control and proper diet, and correct clothing. As a rule, these speakers offer a demonstration to accompany their talks, and the girls learn a great deal from them. This year, senior homemaking classes had guest speakers from pattern concerns, make-up companies, and a florist shop. Senior homemaking is a profitable and enriching class for all stu- dents enrolled, and it is an excellent way to prepare a girl for a career as a good wife and mother.

Metal Shop courses offer students basic informa- tion and experience in working with a variety of processes used in working with metals. Students receive instruction in such areas as machine work, forging, metal casting, art metal, and welding. Also emphasized in metal courses are creativity in metal and allied products, and safety training for all facets of the field of metal. Vocational metal is limited to a few capable stu- dents who are willing to concentrate on training for the metal industry and plan to go into this field upon graduation. In this course, the students are given intense training in all parts of the metal in- dustry and are therefore prepared either to con- tinue their training or begin working upon gradua- tion from high school.

It is a class aimed principally at col- lege-preparatory students, and has prerequisites of geometry and algebra I. In this course, the student furthers his knowledge of mathematics with a study of advanced theorems, number lines and coordinates, and other related matter. Usually taken in conjunction with algebra II is chemistry or advanced biology, and taken as a follow-up are courses such as trigonoxnetiy and physics. For the most part, stu- dents who enjoyed algebra and geometry get much valuable ex- perience from this class. At right, Mrs. Papero explains to W'ill Davis and Sandy Deakins some of the more obscure points of an algebra II theorem.

The courses are interesting, stimulating, and often fun. Different classes hold different types of work, and all are an excellent way to spend an hour of the day. The chemistry courses offered at Pioneer are, as in most other schools, laboratory-oriented. In Chemistry, students learn all about the things which compose every substance known to man Judi Jernigan WE Cheryl Keller ' ' 4+ Nan Kellinski H Teddy Kestler 1 -' ' Virginia Juarez V K it Barbara Kino' 'ef' O iiv.

Offered in this study of atoms is fas- cinating knowledge of the behavior of particles so small that they cannot be seen without the use of powerful microscopes. In this course of study, many experiments are performed which involve chemicals and instruments never known before to most students, and learning to use these things effectively and safely is an important part of the course.

Courses in electronics usually entail studies of different types of circuits, relay of current, and the technical terms dealing with electricity. Students build working models of electric motors, circuits, radios, and other electronic devices. Many boys who take these classes cultivate an interest in ham radio operation which is an extremely rewarding and interesting pas- time. After successful completion of Electronics I, interested boys may continue in the field and enroll in Vocational Radio or Vocational Electronics.

Ei 1. 4 I , it Students Gai Pioneer's Fine Arts department offers many interesting and stimulating courses in music, art, and other related subjects. A very impor- tant part of this department are the art classes. In these elective courses students learn the basic concepts of drawing, painting, sculpture and other allied arts. As a result most students derive from their art classes more skill in expressing themselves artistically, a better knowledge of their own style, and most important, an increased awareness of the fundanientals of art, During the two-semester course students have the opportunity to experiment with many different media such as pencil, pastels, oils, and a variety of sculptural materials. They are also given the opportunity to do studies of many types of subject matter. The human form, natural phenomena, and inani- mate objects used in still life settings are a few of the subjects. Some advanced students elect to work extensively with only one or two media. Many of their compositions are en- tered in the annual Fine Arts Festival which is an excellent showcase for talented students to display their achievement to the public. Patti Linza, right, is given constructive eri- tieism by art teacher, Miss Narkiewicz who states that Art classes are beneficial to all students who enroll with the purpose of ex- tending their talents, abilities, and apprecia- tion in art.

Modern dance is designed to help girls gain ease of movement, grace, poise, and other desirable attributes. Also of great merit is the fact that posture is improved and muscles are toned as a result of concentrated effort required of modern dance exercises. Students are given the opportunity to create their own movements and work them into a dance in coordination with instructions given by the teacher. Many of these dances turn out very well and some of the girls are requested to perform as a part of the G.A.A. modern dance group in assemblies and other programs. Above, a group of junior girls perform a composition of four different levels. In these compositions, students are asked to move from one level such as standing, to three other levels, standing, kneeling, or sitting, in a given number of counts. Coor- dination, control and a sense of rhythm are required to successfully and gracefully complete such a movement. 5 'ff-if'-1 'f 1 .1 -..l ,.

History, Past and Present A required course for all juniors, U.S. History is designed to give students a more comprehensive background into the history of our country. Included in the course are studies of all major con- flicts in which the U.S. was involved, reasons for this involvement, and the re- sults of actions taken. Also brought up for detailed study are the major figures who participated in the building of our nation. In some classes, students are re- quired to do term papers or detailed re- ports on historical persons who most in- terest them. Among the more popular subjects for these papers are Benedict Arnold, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Alexander Hamilton. Also included in the U.S, History courses is a program of study of current events. In place of textbooks, students utilize such media as newspapers and periodicals. This means of learning about the events which go on current- ly is an excellent method of helping stu- dents accept and adjust to the various ways of learning which will be available to them throughout their lives. At right, Mr. Rock moderates an in- formal discussion of the day's lesson with Sue Chase and David Medina.

Among the many courses available under the occupational training program are occupational auto, wood shop, metal shop, machine shop, and electronics. In machine shop, boys with two semesters previous experience in the class are allowed to enroll in a two-hour per day class to further their experience with the many types of power tools and equipment.

In this course of study, such machines as comptometers, adding ma- chines, various duplicating machines and other types of office implements are used. Each student is given a certain amount of time to learn the opera- tion of his machine under the supervision of persons qualified to teach the correct operation of every machine in the classroom, YVhen they have suc- cessfully passed various proficiency tests they arc assigned to another ma- chine and the learning begins again. Students are usually proficient on all of the machines by the end of the semester and should be adequately pre- pared to pass tests administered by prospective employers. An excellent course for all students interested in a business career, office machines offers the student the advantage of gaining actual experience with most equipment used in modern offices. Another advantage is that actual experience is acquired while still in high school and prepares the student for employment upon graduation. Mr. Hart, above, with Tammy Dias and Steve Clemons, reviews some of the more difficult aspects of an assignment. Carolyn Ortiz Joseph Ortiz , H Ramon Ortiz .

As welding involves fusion of two pieces of metal by intense heat, precautionary measures are decidedly necessary. Students must wear protective goggles to shield their eyes from flying sparks and from the intense brilliance of the heat. Pioneer welding teachers also require their students to wear asbestos gloves. Welding is a useful skill and can be a very profitable means of employment for a person who is proficient at it. Pioneer offers various courses in welding, including vocational welding in which a student may begin his preparation for a career in this field.

The spirited Sopho- mores also sold refreshments at some of Pioneer's other dances. The special goal of all these fund- raising aetivities was to earn plenty of money for the Junior-Senior Prom which the Class of '70 will sponsor next year as Juniors. All the plans for these and all Sophomore- sponsored events were made on Thursdays at noon under the guidance of their advisor Mrs. Papero and the leadership of President Bill Stei- mer.

Zacarius believes that only by drawing from live models will the art students learn to discern and ex- press their own interpretation of the human figure. The art II student learns to work with a wide variety of media and sub- ject matter during the two semester course. After completing a year of art H the student may then elect to take art III, ceramics or a commer- cial art class to enlarge and broaden his experience in the field of art. Speed and Accuracy Stressed in Typing ll Classes Typing, whether for personal or ca- reer use is an excellent course for all students. It can always be used for many various purposes. Usually Typing I is enough for personal typing, such as letters, term papers, and job applica- tions. Typing Il is a vocational course for job training skills. The experience gained in Typing ll is excellent train- ing for a person who desires a career in business. S If a student is seriously applying his or her efforts toward a secretarial ca- reer, he or she might take Shorthand, Office Machines, or Office Training., These courses lay the groundwork and offer the basic experience necessary to begin a career in office work. In addi- tion to these courses, the more serious students have an opportunity, through a placement counselor, to get jobs which will further prepare them for their re- spective business careers. Susan Daddario, at right, is shown working at improving her skill in typing speed and accuracy in Mr. Armstrong's Typing II class. Mi., . md.s,,U,...,. .. or 'si 4 .-Wet.

World history, a required subject for all Sophoniores, is a Course de- signed to inform students of the great historical events of the past and present. The elasses begin with a study of the Renaissance and prog- ress through to the present time, in- cluding a study of World Wiar II. An important part of world history courses is the opportunity for the students to learn in depth about the many great figures in history, Also Covered are great battles of the Na- poleonic era, the Elizabethan era with its nionientous naval growth, and world-changing explorations. At left, Mr. MacDonald gives Susan Lubely and Larry Wilson some interesting background infor- mation on one of the famous per- sonalities eovered in the day's lesson. ig K lx :XX X Q W . lf i'Vl,'i V' s Class of 1970 is ' ' - s r 1 3' '- S: ,. ...

Students from all four vlasses enroll in these courses. ln the crafts periods, the students are able to develop different in- terests whieh can easily fill their out-of- sehool leisure hours. Some students even go so far as to improve their skills to the point where they are able to sell the ob- jects which they make and thereby sup- plement their regular invome and earn extra spending money. At left, Mrs. Moore consults with Pete Segovia about a design to use for a pastel drawing. Also included in the crafts pro- gram are leather working, copper enamel- ing, Casting plastie and resins, woodrarv- ing, and making objects with lami- nated wire. .v 'w 2 vi A -fs , 5 wi' z g ' '- Camera Shy Sophomorcs Gail Adkins Margaret Aguilar Alice Aguilera Raul Aroz Frank Baca Adrian Barazal Rhean Beckley Alfredo Bracamontes William Brown Gary Butts Christine Carrillo Daniel Castagnetto Andrew Castillo Yolanda Celiz Ruben Chavez Anna Flores Fredrick Garcia Lillian Garcia Genaro Guerrero Bruce Hougardy Albert Houtekamer Linda Jurado Paul Ledieff Karen Lewis Bonita Lindsey Nancy Little Earl Loucks Donald Lowery John Maier Richard Malcolm David Miller Gerry Navarro Michael Negrete Manuel Ojeda Sandra Ortiz Stephen Paterson David Ponce Mara Rivera David .Rodriguez Nemecio Rodriguez Fred Rose Michael Rosen Jerry Ruiz Jose Ruvalcaba Scott Sabins Michael Sandoval Michael Shrewe Tom Spear David Sylling Dale Tibbs Jesse Uzueta Frank Vasquez Fammie Ventura Jane Vreeland William Wirsing Raymond Witmer -f air I' A ' 'lir -A J reiry h 'W ,V ' I' ' ' 'VAI H J ' qi VVV' ii, - .

Identity Study Joey Franco, Freshman Class President The Freshman Class has had an outstanding year this year, sponsoring many activities which were enjoyed by Titans from all four classes. Among the many Frosh-sponsored events were car washes, a Frosh-Soph Morp. a Campus clean-up and after- game dances. The spirited Class of ,7l was led by President joey Franco, who was backed up by Vice President Veronica Telles. In Charge of keeping the minutes of all meetings was Secretary April Steele, and the responsibility of the Treasury fell to Veronica Telles, Vice President Marsha Carlson. Judi Lozano, Social Chairman, was in charge of planning and carrying out all Frosh-sponsored events. The Class of ,7l came into something entirely new this year by being the first Freshman class to participate in the Identity Study. The Class Council, along with the officers, were asked for suggestions concerning the things they thought would im- prove Pioneer. They came up with some helpful ideas and were very efficient in carrying out their part in the study. April Steele, Secretary Marsha Carlson, Treasurer Judi Lozano, Social Chairman 14 V 2. .4 9 i ' .

In English I, stu- g dents are encouraged to use the language, and learn from their own mistakes. In accordance with this method, students write compositions or opinions and are then allowed to form discussion groups to K M I go over and correct their original work. This tif? ' 1 method, which could very well result in chaos, has fl ' ' 'fx worked vew well with many classes at Pioneer. The 'fp 1,9 ifgmf Q f . ' . , 7. . f v.

O A Different teachers find different ways of handling study or discussion groups. In some classes, each , group is asked to select a secretary to record the A' discussion, and then report to the class. Qften teach- it A ' f ers ask for written reports of the discussions, while N 63' ' ' 'V still others rely on the results of the work to show J k up in the revised papers. - At left, Mr. Letcher joins a group of his English I .M , , g , students as they discuss a piece of contemporary -I literature.

This is a class for boys who wish to learn the art of working with various kinds of metals. Although some of the class time is spent in lectures by the teacher, the greater part of the time is spent at the workbench gaining practical ex- perience. Among the many tools used in metal work are the drill press, metal lathe, power saws, and various shaping and polishing tools. The student must also become proficient at handling delicate measuring devices. At left, Freshman Jeff Bates works with a stylus as he prepares to cut a piece of sheet metal. Pioneer's shop teachers place much emphasis on safety and efficiency in their shop classes. T ' ei, so 251 ' i . VV ., r..y.. r . . ii '...' f..'

In Algebra classes, stu- dents learn the basic principles of mathe- matics, not to be Confused with arithme- tic. A new experience to many students is working with unknowns and the many unusual mathematical symbols which are so much a part of algebra and high- Upon completion of a course in alge- bra, a student, if his grades are high enough, may go on to take geometry, applied physics, chemistry, algebra II, physics or trigonometry to round out his studies in math. The many courses avail- able after successful completion of al- gebra I may enable a student to culti- vate an interest in math and help him find a career in mathematics or other related fields. The slide rule is an important instru- ment which no mathematician would care to do without. It enables students or professionals alike to make quick and accurate calculations which would otherwise be time-consuming and pos- sibly inaccurate.

Chorus is a beginners class in vocal music, which guarantees the student who enrolls in it a useful knowledge of music along with a real enjoyment of performing that music. Chorus, which is part of the Fine Arts Depart- ment, is taught by lXlr. Orr. The students in the chorus learn music and perform in assemblies, at local concerts and festivals, and play important roles in school musical productions.

Through their endeavors the district maintains a well-balanced apportionment of students among .-an ax its seven high schools. They are responsible for the hiring of highly qualified teachers. The control of financial affairs of each of the schools in the district. from the budgeting and ordering of supplies to the planning of curricular and co-curricular programs. is in the hands of these able men. Advanced planning of new building sites and expansion of existing schools is another of their monumental tasks to keep the district aligned with increasing student population.

For the Titan's answer to such a question, I would commend a close study of this 1968 TORCH. For within the beautiful pages of this TORCH, are forever pictorially recorded Pioneer Titans giv- ing of themselves for their school and community. Untold hours of hard work in aca- demic and occupationally centered classroomsg devotion to homework and to co-cur- rieular activities have made possible the achievements of the young people shown on' these pages.

He came here after serving a hitch in the Sicilian Army to find work and opportunity for himself in the Land of the Free. He soon became a United States citizen, and after working for a while in Boston, he came to California with his bride in 1957 and went to work with the Whittier Union High School District. He transferred from California High to Pioneer High in 1960 and during the years that he has been on our campus he has eome to be loved by faculty and students alike. His ready wit and cheerful attitude have endeared him to all who have known him. Joe will retire in the summer of 1968 and follow- ing his retirement he plans to devote full time to his vegetable garden, and to the management of his income properties in El Blonte and in Palm Springs, Joe will be greatly missed and warmly remem- bered by everyone at Pioneer High. Mr. Helmut Heinemann, Pioneers First Foreign Exchange Teacher , xg Mr. Heinemann indicates on a map of Germany the area near Freiburg where he spent most of his life. He will return to his teaching position in Freiburg at the end of the school year. Mr. Heinemann works closely with his students in Ger- man classes to per- fect their pronunci- ation as well as their understanding of his native country. wg'-ff Pioneer High School was especially fortunate this year to partici- pate in a faculty exchange program known as the Fullbright Teach- ers Exchange Program. This is a project in which a teacher from an American school and a teacher from a school in a foreign coun- try exchange places for a year, each taking the other's classes. The aim of this project is to promote understanding through cultural exchange. Mr. Helmut Heinemann is Pioneer's first foreign exchange teach- er, He teaches German and English at the Goethe Gymnasium or high school in Freiburg, Germany. lklr. Heinemann states that he had some adjustments to make to the American public school sys- tem. In Germany the school week is six days and classes meet only in the morning, He teaches Mr. David Lee,s classes while Mr. Lee takes his place in Germany. Living with him while working here in America are his wife, Helen, and their two-year old daughter. The Heinemanns spend most of their free time touring Southern California to learn as much as they can about the American way of life. .x XX' Bob Matkovich, Student Body President, discusses some of the fine points of student life in an American high school with foreign ex- change teacher, Mr. Heinemann.

Mr. Kelly, beginning his second year as a member of the faculty, was stricken suddenly and hos- pitalized early in December. Although he was an im- portant part of the Social Studies department, he will be best remembered as Coach Kelly of the Varsity and Junior Varsity football teams. Mr. Kelly is survived by his wife Margaret Ann and their children, a boy aged 4-M and an infant daughter. A 1965 graduate of Whittier College, Mr. Kelly majored in History and Physical Education. He spent his first year as a teacher at Bell Gardens Junior High, and came to Pioneer in 1966, where he taught U.S. History, Life Science, and Physical Education, coach- ing football as a special interest. Although everyone at Pioneer is saddened and shocked by his death, his life was lived in a way that will make him long remembered as a friend, teacher, and colleague of the most wonderful sort. He is and will be missed by everyone at Pioneer, faculty and stu- dents alike. His life was gentle, and the elements So mix'd in him that Nature might stand UP And say to all the world, 'This was a manl' -William Shakespeare it an Mr. Kelly experienced tense moments as a coach.

This is especially true with myself and the 1968 TORCH. I feel bound to this book by long hours of gruel- ing work, almost unbearable agony of worrying over deadlines, and pride in the accomplishment represented by the publication of this volume of the TORCH. Working on this annual has brought me closer to many people, most especially those of the TORCH staff, without whose help and patience I would have been useless as an editor. These people worked, slaved, and worried along with me, besides putting up with short tempers, anger, and tears-all for the overwhelming reward of seeing their work represented in this volume of Pioneer's history. Though they may not believe it, I am grateful to them all, and proud to have had such a great group with which to work. A No words can describe the deep feelings of gratitude, respect, and affection due Mrs. Zane Thompson. She has held the TORCH staff and me together through dreadful tension, disappointment, happiness, fatigue, and every other emotion imaginable. She was always there to listen to problems, complaints, or just talk. It is with great humility and respect that I express my gratitude to Mrs. Thompson for all she has done for me, and for the TORCH. I suppose I could go on forever, thanking everyone individually, but I'm afraid I would run out of words and become redundant. So, I will close the last page of the most wonderful chapter of my life with the greatest reluctance and an abundance of tears and nos- talgia. To everyone and everything, a sentimental, tearful, Aufwie- dersehenf' 5 Judi Killough Editor-in-Chief 1968 TORCH Q -ug. f 00. . 13365015 5 4 N -, s aiiiijffl 5 ,sm ,uf , of if 1 W We .-., . li U 9mNblQgv , W Mi J , Mwgiwfb 9 wgjgfyxw X M wif? f gf A WQMWWW gf 1 o JW?
