What a wealth of emotions wells up into the hearts of all of us, even the most candid and unsentimentall The class of June, 1932, entered the halls of Polytechnic as insignificant freshmen in the fall of 1928. Four glorious years ahead in which to find success or failure! Most of the outstanding members of the class began early in their high school careers to malce a name for themselves, others dropped behind. New faces have appeared while a few have left our midst. Time elapsed. As high juniors the class elected Jack Ray president. Together with the low juniors, a junior prom was given, our first public appearance en masse. At the end of the term senior pins were selected, and the entire class eagerly awaited the time which marked eligibility to wear the band of recognition. When low seniors we chose Kennard Harper, the proverbial man- about-school, to lead us. Displaying our pins, we made our formal debut as low seniors. But another all-important problem faced us-the choosing of the senior insignia. Various displays of grief were to be seen on the coun- tenances of serious minded individuals when told that only one insignia would be allowed, thus necessitating the abandonment of the traditional hats or mortarboardsg but once resigned to the fact, the problem of choosing a sweater assumed tremendous proportions. After much pondering over new designs the practical black sweaters with red numerals, similar to those of recent terms, won the decision. Two hundred of the dignified personages appeared wreathed in superior smiles at the Christmas rally, bedecked in the new raiment-High Fours at last! Five months of school remained. Upon returning from vacation, elec- tions were held. In a close race john Portman emerged victorious, winning the coveted honor of high senior president. The other capable officers were Mary jane Hansen, vice-president, Max Childress, secretary-treasurer, Pat Buclcley, sergeant-at-arms, Mario Machi, cheer leader. President Portman, realizing the tremendous amount of worlc essential to the success of the semester, immediately appointed chairmen of the stand- ing committees. Miss Tabrett, high four supervisor, assigned a senior registrar as faculty advisor to each committee. The success of the graduating class is in the hands of these officials, therefore, utmost care is exercised in the selection of committee members. Duncan MacArthur headed the graduation committee and Barney Martin, the diploma committee. Correct spelling of names and investigation as to whether students were qualified to receive one was their taslc. The boys 9F'fJFWrWWFWrWWEWrW!dWdWdWdWrWdW1-WrW:ZZ71-WW:-WrWrWF'.W1-W!FWi7lEWZ'z taking mechanical drawing were responsible for the elaborate and original diplomas, the most outstanding in the city. Retha Gompertz, with Agnes Murray and George Nelson assisting, attended to the selection, ordering, and delivering of the announcements of graduation. As in previous terms, the vice-president had charge of the senior dance. Assisted by Annette Rahmer, Mary Reilley, Sylvia Lachman, Barrett Ely, Ben Johnson, Don Pidgeon, John Greene, Charles Prather, Charles Swan- son, Mary Jane Hansen engaged the ballroom, took charge of the sale of tickets, and arranged the program. The luncheon committee was headed by Anita Castro and Walter Brown, assisted by Max Childress, Esther Schmidt, Bob Cetchen, Helen Farris, and George McKenna. The luncheon, the most informal event of the term, is a project of astonishing size. Doris McLeod and Dick Marsh were co-chairmen of the senior jinx. Don Pidgeon, Barney Martin, Margie West, Charles Prather, Anita Castro, George Nelson, Bob Couglan, Max Childress, and Duncan MacArthur were chosen for the committee. Besides planning the theme of the jinx, it was necessary to hold tryouts every Friday and to supervise the staging of the performance. Don Hanson, John Portman, and Mary Jane Hansen, as class leaders, were ex-officio members of all committees. After selection of these committees had been completed, work began in earnest. Miss Roddy, senior counselor, checked all records and assisted students in planning programs. A close check was constantly kept so as to avoid any last minute disappointments. In April Journal pictures were taken. Proofs fluttered about between examination papers and term projects. For days after the senior class picture was taken, the 'thigh and mighties were found with heads buried in rolls of pictures. Senior day, long anticipated, took place May 26. Silly costumes, silly actions, and riotous times-the typical senior day. The jinx, broadcast from a radio station in ancient Athens, was appropriate both in theme and spirit. The luncheon was likewise befitting the occasion. Final examinations, dreaded by all of us, arrived in all their glory. Mid- night oil burned low, pencils became mere stubs. But that ordeal was passed. Journals came out, and senior sweaters donned, every senior equipped with several fountain pens. In between signature gathering, graduation was rehearsed. Only two more milestones to be passed. Graduation June 8, always a dim unreality, drew near. The dance, held at the Fairmont Terrace, June 9, became a symbol-the last time we assembled together, and the class of June 1932 passed into oblivion. .. mmeiglggs 5 5 Q ' fam 4 Q we 'assi fs wfff 1 1 KR: W Qi'-rf wa .4 'if ,L . .. .

To supervise this organization, the Student Body elected Donald Hanson, president, Retha Gom- pertz, first vice-president, Georgia Hicks, second vice-presi- dent, Donald Cronin, secretary, Petro Evergettis, treasurer, Walter Fink, custodian, Marvin Compton, athletic manager. Millard Buckman and Charles Williams led the cheers at the rallies and athletic events. After much pro and con arguing, it was decided that the Student Court was necessary to the school and should be continued. Dick Gratton was appointed judge and Dorothy Smith, court secretary, filing all offenses in the catalog. The jury was composed of the presidents and vice-presidents from L1's to H4,s. Pete Evergettis with the assistance of Bob Heidenreich, managed the Student Body dues. This term The Loyalty Dues Campaign offered many advantages in that it was left to the students as to whether they wished to support the Sudent Body, and it was arranged so that any student wishing to own a card could earn sufficient money to enable him to pay for it. Georgia Hicks and her committee sponsored several dances in celebra- tion of such colorful events as Valentine's Day, February 29, and St. Pat- rick's Day. - Under the supervision of Bill Mackey and the rally committee, Mr. Gedar of the Y. M. C. A. of Berlin, Germany, was presented to the school, as was also Mr. William Finley, noted naturalist. A Student Body assembly was held March 28 for the purpose of discussing the proper use of the library. No faculty members were present and the success of the rally rested with officers and students. With Bill Mackey as master of ceremonies, a rally for the purpose of dedicating the newly acquired trophy case was held April 25. Under Donald Cronin the Clean-Up committee sponsored Poly- technic Beautiful Weekf' April 25-29. The long-awaited Public Address System has been installed. After trying out various kinds to test their perfection, the new one was at last chosen. It is portable, and may be installed in any part of the building, as well as in the court. Hello Week, similar to Spirit Week and Greater Polytechnic Week of previous terms, was the outstanding event of the semester. One entire week was profitably spent in the development of student control, co- operation and loyalty. The objective which the Forum Club and Student Body had in view was to promote friendliness and to assist the students in becoming acquainted. 'QHello Cards, with space for forty signatures of HWl'wFwFW wF.WFU TwHWl'wI'w dW ,W If fr' F1 f p fy are ,ff ,wif 1 M new friends, were distributed April 11. The next day, being student control day, the pupils ran7' the school. President Hanson acted in the capacity of principal, Retha Gompertz occupied Mrs. Murphy's chair, and Pete Ever- gettis took over the Dean of Boys' duties. Students, elected or appointed, conducted all classes. Thursday was the semi-annual Camera Day. The climax of the week came on April 15, when under the direction of Mr. Crowley, the Forum Club presented The Forum Fun Frolicf' Retha Gompertz was chairman of the annual Student Body banquet, held at the Mark Hopkins Hotel, April 29. Bob Heidenreich, master of ceremonies, contributed much toward the success of the dinner. Student Body officers and class representatives were invited, as were also Mrs. Mur- phy, Mr. Addicott and the faculty advisers, Miss Hatch and Mr. Koehler. Open House Night, April 28, members of the governing board con- ducted a model Student Body meeting.

Dorothy Strittmatter was responsible for the quantities of flowers which graced every Girls' Student Body occasion. p Rena Hunken headed the committee in charge of the Girls' Jinx, which was held during May. The theme, A Modiste Shoppe, was very clever in that the entertainers were models of a fashionable shop. The annual luncheon, given April 13, was under the direction of Mary Craig. Colorful decorations of orchid and yellow added to the attractiveness of the affair to which all members of the board were invited. The rally committee, headed by Molly Smith, presented Mrs. Pearl Newman, who talked on Q'Personal Appearance. In January a reception was held for the freshmen, senior girls acting as hostesses.

Margie West was well qualified for the position of editor, having been assistant editor the previous term. Charley Cassidy returned as a post graduate to continue in the capacity of assistant editor. Marcia Edelstein shared this office. Mario Machi, boys, sports editor, covered the basketball games. He was assisted in his work by Irvin Silberstein and Fred Brown, who had charge of track news. Mario was responsible for the new column, The Training Table. Catherine Hearst, outstanding feminine athlete, edited the girls' sports. Phyllis Black wrote Leap Year Laughs. Mack Hunt followed the brilliant accomplishments of the R. O. T. C. Richard McKenzie, assisted by Irving Prien, hustled the ads. Blanche Jones, besides writing the exchanges, was the private secretary of the entire class. Katherine Woolner had charge of copy and proof reading. The clever versified news and Poly personalities were originated by Lillian Mayer. She was also the authoress of that thrilling, nonsensical serial, The Laughing Maniac. Elmer Koehler was the author of History Hud- dle, which presented interesting facts concerning outstanding men of history. William de la Fuente originated Turning The Pagesf, giving short book reviews. Chalter Chinwell and His Latest Social Snoops, flowed from the pen of Beverly Keenan. Faculty Facts, by Margie West, again delighted the students, giving them a new slant on dear teacherf, A personality contest was sponsored by The Parrot, a description of a prominent person being given in each edition. For the most correct solu- tions and the best essay on Why We Should Patronize Parrot Advertisers, three -I '32 Journals were awarded. Members of the staff paraded the halls garbed in stiff collars, high hats and peculiar hair dresses, advertising The Old Timers' Edition of the paper. It made its appearance March 16, all decked out in green paper. This edition included a history of the school, interviews with famous alumni and clippings from papers and Journals of the past. Margie West, Marcia Edelstein, Kay Woolner, Mack Hunt, Bill de la Fuente, Charley Cassidy and Mario Machi attended the Delta Sigma Chi journalism convention at U. C., April 8 and 9. The entire class contributed articles to the San Francisco Chronicle High School pages every week. On Open Night, visitors were able to witness the makings of the bi-weekly, from the writing of the material to the final make-up of the paper. KATHERINE WOOLNER Editor .

To preach upon this text is no longer necessary, the world acknowledges its truth. Everyone recognizes the fact that play is necessary for a well-balanced life, but many do not know the difference between recreation and merely time-wasting activity. The solution lies in following a hobby-anything from pasting pictures in an album to cross country racing, just so long as it supplies continuity of interest and provides recreation not only for today but for tomorrow and other days to come. The full value and greatest savor come from a leisure time employment that is farthest removed from one's daily occupation, such a one soothes, refreshes and stimulates tired muscles and weary brains. Every student should have a hobby. In school he probably does not work hard enough to tire himself out, but he is at least required to follow a certain routine for a number of hours each day, and the opportunity to turn to something in which he has a deep personal interest adds zest to life, and increases the value of those hours spent outside the school room. If any Polytechnic student has no hobby, he should acquire one at once. If he has no ideas on the subject, or doesn't know which one to choose, or doesn't know how to proceed after he has made his choice, help is at hand. In the various student clubs are the answers to all those problems. There are more than two dozen of them, ranging in purpose from the serious to the frivolous, from the vocational to the social, from those whose interests are near at home to those whose interests are far afield, from those whose membership is a reward for athletic superiority to those whose entrance fee is good scholarship. About five hundred students avail themselves of the opportunities offered by the clubs. What is the matter with the other two thousand? No better tonic for a jaded appetite for school has been devised than interest in one of these numerous out-of-school activities. If you don't find what you want in the number already established, hunt up some kindred spirits and found a new one. There is plenty of room for another. The Journal is offering club news in a different form this year. The clubs, with their officers, have been listed alphabetically, and the activities have been tabulated in brief form in order that readers may see at a glance exactly what the activities of each club include. Take a look at what they dog then join the one that fosters the things you like to do. The club editors hope to report next term that at least one thousand Poly students are taking an interest in club affairs. lliiicers oi Clubs f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 5:0 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff UE Club President Vice-President Sec.-Treat.

MEM ff ff' ff ff fFWHMdWHidWH!FWdWHWFWdWEWdWEWdW dWEW N THE spring of 1932 the Polytechnic Battalion had perhaps the most eventful term of its career. First came the honorary inspec- tion early in March, then in order the rifle team competition, the honor school inspection, civic auditorium competition, Memorial Day parade, Washington Bicentennial Day parade, and Hnally the gradu- ating oflicers' inspection, not to mention all the drill downs, and battalion parades that took place in the meantime. HONORARY INSPECTION On March 15, the Polytechnic unit represented the San Francisco high schools at an inspection by Major General Malin Craig. During this time the R. O. T. C. passed in parade, review, company inspection, company drill, platoon drill, squad drill, and map reading. Both the battalion and Sergeant Giblin were highly complimented by the inspecting officer and Major Adams. HONOR SCHOOL INSPECTION Colonel Pillow and staff inspected the Polytechnic Battalion on April 5. The Battalion first passed in parade and review, then inspection. The companies in turn displayed their efliciency in different military formations. K Co. fCaptain Dylcesj executed company drill, M Co. QCaptain Stellingj did extended order drill, and RL Co. fCaptain McKenna, pre- sented physical drill. After this the ofiicers and non-commissioned officers explained map reading, muslcetry and guard duty to the best of their ability. COMPETITIVE DRILL On the night of May 6 at the annual competitive drill of the San Fran- cisco high school units of R. O. T. C., Polytechnic carried off her share of cups and medals. The platoon drill is a four minute period of selected movements done by a platoon from each of the high schools. Captain Edward Stelling com- manded the Polytechnic platoon and won first place. Physical drill, won last year by our school, was commanded this year by Captain McKenna. The band, drilled by Lieutenant Rose, drum major, was directed by Lieutenant Mueller. The individual drill down is the most interesting to the spectators, excitement grows apace as the ranks gradually are thinned until only one remains. RIFLE TEAIW The fifteen members of the Rifle Team competed against all the high schools in San Francisco to emerge victorious by a large number of points. The competition ran through three stages beginning on Feb. 2 The first stage called for the prone and sitting positions of fire, the second for the ROBERT TONE JAMES MALCOLM JEROME WORTMAN JULIUS DYKES EUGENE CROCKER ROBERT HEIDENREICH HUGO CURTAZ GEORGE MC KENNA FRANCIS DYBDAL EDWARD STELLING ERNEST EICKWORTH CLIFFORD FIELD HERMAN RIESCHEL LEE FREDERICKS HERBERT ROGERS DONALD HANSON ROGER SCHUYLER DUNCAN MAC ARTHUR GEORGE STEIGER RONALD MUELLER WILLIAM TURPEN JOHN PARKER JACK WIGHQLM IEMWFFhFWHdFWFWHiFWrWNF.FFFJ7FE prone and kneeling, and the third for the prone and standing positions. Robert Tone was captain. Major Adams offered a wrist watch as a prize to the man who made the highest score in the city. Robert Tone, major of the Polytechnic Battalion, was the skillful man, winning the prize with a total of 560 points out of a possible 600. Other members of the team received medals. The members of the team and their scores were as follows: Robert Tone 560, Edward Irvin 555, Eugene Haslam 545, Crayme Budkowsky 542, Araldo Masconi 541, Donald Hanson 539, William Hafer 539, Edward Stelling 539, Albert Hinde 536, Francis Dybdal 536. Alternates: Julius Dykes 531, John Cooke 528, David Parker 519, Stanley Daver 516, Robert 1-Ieidenreich 515. Sergeant Giblin is justly proud of his rifie team and looks forward conhdently to next year's competition. BAND The band, under the inspirational leadership of our new music teacher, Marion Knott, has developed into a splendid unit of the battalion. The drum major is Lieutenant Rose and the student leaders are Lieutenants Mueller and Steiger. The band is composed of forty pieces, and during competitions it more than strengthens the morale of the battalion. C. M. T. C. By means of the Citizens' Military Training Camps the United States government offers training to its citizens in infantry, artillery, cavalry and signal corps. The camps are held during the months of June and July in different parts of the state, each camp conducting a different course. Many high school students take advantage of the opportunities offered at these camps each year. Last summer the following Polytechnic students attended and enjoyed themselves immensely: Mack Hunt, William Hafer, Sidney Rentz, George Arnold, Jerome Wortman, Herman Rieschel, Clifford Field and Robert Peters. SCABBARD AND BLADE The newly named oflicers' club consists of all the commissioned and non-commissioned oflicers of the Polytechnic Battalion. It meets on the first Thursday of each month. The purpose of the club is to improve the morale of the men and to co-operate with them in an endeavor to win the competitions in which they participate. To stimulate interest the club has inaugurated a system by which colored banners are awarded to the companies for excellence in attendance, cleanliness and drill. These banners are placed on the guidons of the com- panies. The club planned several social events for the term. Among them were an ice skate, a theater party and the semi-annual banquet. x ' R figlfnf QJZW W, x R, QT, Q- ITE 5 Q gag may ,W -vga as c 1 N H- Q' Q- f F g kb M, gg ' Hr I faigfigxfi 55?

Alumni f Jf ff f ff ff fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy ff-'fy fy fy fy 'fy fy UST to keep you in touch with some of the thousands of graduates of Polytechnic, the Journal staff has gathered the following bits of in- formation, not complete at all but suggestive of the many fields of activity into which your old friends have ventured. First, a few ex-presidents claim our attention. William Gros- venor, Fall '31, is a man of leisure, aside from doing some musical work. George Graham, Fall '30, goes to San Mateo Junior College. Ray Quirolo, J '29, is attending San Francisco University where he is making good in track. At night he is head usher at El Rey Theatre. All that ought to keep Ray fairly busy. Another ex-president, George Ososke, J '28, served in the same capacity at S. F. U. last year. Sava Limneos, D '29, and Sid Goldstein, J '31, are also at S. F. U. Anatoli Maioroff, valedictorian of June '31, is doing newspaper work at Chowchilla, Madera County. His pal, Vlad Taranik, of the same class, is a guard on the Stanford water polo team. We hear that he also goes abalone fishing. How about it, Vlad? King Harrington, J '31, who used to spend all his time in the art classes at Poly, is now at art school. He recently won a prize offered by Schwa- bacher-Frey Co. The two Moes are busy. Pearl, D '31, is competing with two college graduates for a steady position at the Emporium. Steve, D '29, is in the sport shop at Moore's. Gertrude Cornils, D '31, is pursuing the thorny career toward efficiency in business affairs at the Munson School. The last time we saw her, her trial balance had come just the way a trial balance should. We may assume that they don't always do that. Elaine Johnson, J '31, and Frances Christiansen, J '31, are at the same school. Frank Walker, last term's football captain, is a student at Williams' Junior College in Berkeley. He plans to transfer to California as soon as possible. Helen Lyman, J '31, who married Ralph Barringer, J '30, soon after graduation, has a baby boy, and Meredith Jones, J '29, and her husband, Carl Bermel, D '27, have a daughter, Ann Elizabeth. John Imwinkelreid, D '29, works at the 'Eureka Mills, Vincent Theuriet, J '31, at one of the United Cigar Stores, his brother, Leslie, is with the Western Union. At the Bank of Italy is Leigh Hunt, J '30, at the San Francisco Bank is Herbert Bernthal, D '28. Peter Weinberger, D '31, works for the Johnson Oil Burner Co., but expects to enter U. C. in August. FWlEFIEFiFWh-WJFWF.WEMF'h-Wr-Wr-WrWHMEEr-WEFJEF0EFlEWE Bob Feiling, J '31, is at Cal., while brother Bill, J '29, is at Marin Junior where he has broken an all-time record by winning four blocks in four dif- ferent sports. He will go to Stanford next term. Webster Allen, D '28, after going to State Teachers' for some time, is now the leader of a dance orchestra called the Commandrians. Ernest Spencer, D '31 , is learning the Horal business from the Picetti Brothers. Dormer Peterson, J '29, was recently beaten by only one point for the city amateur golf championship. George Challis goes to the College of the Pacific at Stockton. He has been playing football and doing work on the college paper. All the Alexanders are busy. Alberta, D '31 , is at State Teachers' learning to be a kindergarten teacher. Virginia, D '31, is going to the Pacific Audit and System School. Ellen, J '28, is now a senior at,State Teachers', while Evelyn, D '27, is a student at the French Hospital. We don't mean to imply that all these girls belong to the same family, only to the same name. Winifred Lodge is working at I. Magnin's, Ruth Anderson, at the Emporium, Dorothy Doyle, in the main Woolworth office, Cecile Brav and Esther Grossman, at the City of Paris. All these girls belonged to the J '31 class. Aileen Broderson, D '29, after serving as Past Worthy Advisor of the Rainbow Girls of San Francisco, has been chosen for a Grand Worthy oflice in the state organization. She has also been prominent at State Teachers'. Warren Handley, J '30, is running a service station at Eighth Avenue and Fulton Street. Jack Houston, J '31, is working in a Standard Oil sta- tion. Fred Plowman, J '31 , is to be found in a Shell service station at Nineteenth Avenue and Lincoln Way. Among the girls taking business courses are Margaret Husband, J '31, at Miss Miller's, and Christine Anderson, D '31 , at the Saline-Johnstone School. Florence Bryant, J '31, has just completed her course. Babette Levy and Elinor Busach, both of D '31, are at Lux. Agnes Knox, D ' 31, is dancing, and Dorothy West, D ' 31, is singing as engagements offer. Virginia Coontz, J '31, is looking forward to a journalistic career. Just now she is studying shorthand and is being coached for a position on the Chronicle. At Lick are James Williams, taking five periods of chemistry, Herbert Kallman, studying pre-medical, George Bilstad and Louis Jorowitz, all of D '31, Bill Koepf, J '31, is studying to be a chiropractor. Lawrence Mortimer, valedictorian of the class of J '30, is now secretary of the Alumni Association. V!!! 1 f 1 ff ff ff ff IdFlFWWtE.'Wr-W1-Wr .WdWF:' 1-'lEFJFf ff fa fEfEf Willetta Ragland, J '30, has announced her engagement to Lawrence Burch, also of J '30. Joe Purcell has gone into business with his father, who deals in auto- matic hot water boilers. The alumni associations of Poly and Commerce staged a charity basket- ball game and dance on the night of April 8. Commerce won the game and was duly presented with the victor's cup by no less a personage than Governor Rolph. The proceeds were divided between the P. T. A. organizations of the two schools. A number of recent alumni came back to sing in the operetta Lelawala on May 20. Among them were Howard Kuchlenz, D '31, Lee Davenport, J '31, Norman Keaton, D '31g Bill Leclcey, D '31, and Elsie Hart. IEI What mystery lies hidden in a rose?

The sport staff has tried to bring to you a detailed account of every event in prep sports, but, because the Journal goes to press before a number of these events are staged, we can only put on an optimistic smile and hope for the best. In any department of athletic endeavor that you may visit, you will notice a certain quality in the athletes which did not seem to be there formerly. There is a new conscientiousness, a more sincere effort toward developing the best there is in them. It may be because the Olympic Games are to be held so close to us this year. Whatever the cause, however, it has put prep athletics on a higher plane in the Bay region. Basketball was not what we wanted it to be this year, but, since it was full of fight and interest for the fans, and showed a lot of promise for next year, we must be satisfied with that. Coach Williams and the team captains, Denny Martin and Frank Norman, made a good battle of it. Coach Paul Hungerford, after bringing home a football championship last fall, feels that he has not exhausted his bringing possibilities, so he has decided to go out and bring back the track title and hang it up on the walls of Poly. His activities are being watched with a great deal of interest, not only by track followers but by his many football well-wishers. Coach Wilkin continues to turn out stars like Prout, Mort, Hartzer, Cox and Rigby. However much he misses these lads when they leave, he always manages to find others somewhere. This year he has pulled a couple of fine pitchers out of the bag. They are Jacobson and Reuther, and they look like great prospects. With the re-classification of lightweight swimming as a spring sport instead of a winter event as heretofore, an additional burden has been laid upon Coach Kinney's shoulders, for he now has the two swimming teams as well as his golfers and tennis aspirants to care for. The regular A. A. A. swimming meet will take place too late in May for this book to carry the results, all we can do is to predict. We can now say that Poly swimmers look unusually strong this year. For the last few years they have been coming up slowly but surely until they are now at a point where they threaten Lowell and Galileo who have reigned supreme. The golf team is said to be the strongest in the history of the school and this is saying a good deal, for Poly has turned out many stars. Practice tournaments have revealed an exceptionally strong tennis team, and we feel assured of a championship this year. The boys have cleaned up on every one of their practice games. u ,si W x,- gf ' Y .M 4 eg' , ' i if x 'iv K' X3 3,2 ff?

A new coach and a green team is hardly conducive to that. With but one veteran and a herd of young ambition to back him up, Coach Williams plunged into the icy waters of the A. A. A. whirlpool. At the end of seven weeks of competition he was drawn down into the vortex along with six other aspiring coaches. The lightweights did slightly better than the big boys when they finished a little nearer the top. Led by their popular captain, Frank Norman, they fought through the season playing havoc with the hopes of many. Substitute material was bountiful on both teams, and they were given plenty of opportunity to gain that much needed experience for next year. The unlimiteds are in line for plenty of fine material from the 30's in addition to their own returning men. Coach Williams is looking forward to next year with high hopes. , Unlimited Games POLY 18-BALBOA 17 ff. pn. 4 5.

Those two old-timers were Alvin Edlin and George Smith, a catcher, who seemed to have some difficulty in deciding on a baseball career, but he finally signed at the last minute. Max Bingham, a pitcher, left for the East early in the season and left Coach Winkins with some qualms as to his pitching staff. However, this department was quickly filled with several good men and the team was again in smooth working order for the practice season. PRACTICE SEASON In the practice games Poly triumphed over Stanford Frosh, 6 to 4, and State Teachers College, 4 to 2. Games were lost to California Frosh, 6 to 12, Berkeley High School, 1 to 8, San Mateo High School, 3 to 4, Affiliated Colleges, 2 to 3, and in a return game with the Afliliated Colleges, tied 5 to 5. POLY 6-CALIFORNIA Fizosi-I 12 The California babes slipped a fast one over on the Laddies from the Sunset before they knew what had happened to them. In desperation Coach Wilkins sent in three pitchers to stop the flow of runs that were coming the way of the old Golden Bear, but all to no avail. Ruether, Bingham and Jacobson all went in with great hopes and retired with nothing but illusions for consolations, the freshies just couldn't be stopped. To add to the grief the Poly boys were not wielding the willow that day, or, of course, it may have been the Cal pitchers. POLY 6-STANFORD FRosH 4 In one of the first practice games of the season, Poly, with the aid of Roy Mort, succeeded in scalping the Stanford Indian. In this hair-raising episode young Ruether showed good early season form in doing his bit in the starring. Mort swung the old wand to the tune of two triples and one double, quite an afternoonis work. Ruether, besides getting two hits, held the Cards to six hits, fanning ten men. PoLy 1-M1ss1oN 3 In spite of the fact that Q'Jake', Jacobson pitched a one-hit game, Poly lost to Mission in the first game of the season. Compton scored Poly,s only run after he had hit a two-bagger in the fifth inning, Palmer then came through with a two-base hit, scoring Compton from second. Due to the fact that Poly and Mission are rated the two best in the league, this game was really a major game, although it was played in the early season. Poly got seven hits. Missionis runs were scored on the Parrots' errors. Klung received the first walk of the season, Palmer the first hit, and Edlin the first strike-out. The batting order was Klung, Palmer, Edlinfiohnson, Jacobson, Saliou, Abbey, Garris and Compton. 1 ff ff ff ff EFWEFJFW1-WFWJEW ff ff ff ff ffff ff ff ff ff--ff ff ff POLY 5-SACRED HEART 4 In the second league game of the season, Poly succeeded in defeating the Fighting Irishv after a lusty battle which ended in a close score packed with thrills. Old reliable Jake Jacobson pitched his usual smooth battle. Co-starring with Jake was Bill Abbey behind the bat. Johnson was the big star when he succeeded in garnering two hits to score two runs. PoLY 3--GALILEO 7 The shaggy old Lion from Galileo succeeded in gobbling up the Parrots in their third league start. Ruether, after three innings of effort and head- aches, succumbed to the Lions' onslaught. I-Ie got tired of watching balls Hy over his head into the outfield and gave the job over to Jake Jacobson. The game looked like a shutout until the sixth inning, when Abbey, the Parrot catcher, got a hit. The next man got on and the heavy hitting John- son came to the plate to rap out a long one, scoring both men. However, this rally proved to be but a Hash in the pan and the game ended with the North Pointers on the long end. TENNIS With an excellent chance of winning a fourth championship, the 130- pound tennis team swung into action. Despite the loss of Carl Bernthal and Paul Collins, the school has two stars in Pete Meyers and Harry Goldman, who were runers-up to Bernthal and Collins last year. Coach Kinney feels that these boys are capable of winning the city titles in both singles and doubles. They won the singles last year and should hold them against all comers. The unlimiteds will be a free-for-all contest with the best man holding the job. The schedule for the team as planned by Manager George Farris called upon them to play every Saturday until the first week in May. There is much promising material, all those who have encountered them will bear witness to that fact. They journeyed to Stockton to play the Tarzans and came away with everything there was to win, and this included all nine matches, both singles and doubles. In a match at State Teachers' College, Poly won three out of four hotly contested matches. Poly players were also victors in fast matches with Balboail-Iigh School. Eight singles and two doubles were won on this occasion, the team scoring a complete shutout. In the fifth practice tilt of the season Poly went over to San Rafael High and defeated them on their own courts. Goldman won his match 2-6, 6-1, 7-55 Meyers, 6-1, 6-0, Peirano, 6-4, 6-45 Jones, 6-2, 6-4, and Ferris, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4. In the doubles Meyers and Goldman won 8-6, 6-1. The team had previously defeated Mission. The only loss was at the hands of Lowell players. Reading down, left: Unlxmxtecl Baseball Pole Vaulters Henderson, Cal. -Ir.

In any discussion as to Poly's chances in the forthcoming meet, the first question is: Who are the prospects? Where do they come from? Probably the greatest surprises were that Jack Ray could sprint and John Portman could pole vault. Fine material has been coming in from other schools and by graduation from the lightweight division. Ray and Portman have helped greatly to raise the level of Poly's hopes. For the pole vault the combination of Rhodes, the veteran, with Portman and Gottwald should click. Peterson and Mackey in the high jump are a pair of ringers, both doing well over 5 feet 6 inches. Poly's strongest event will be the mile, with Hinde, Poch and Plowman, all capable of finishing in good time. Undoubtedly in the weight events Poly will bow to Commerce. This latter school hopes to be a two-time winner. OAKLAND TECH 54-POLY 49 Poly,s unlimited track team was defeated by Oakland Tech at Kezar Stadium, 54-49-. Jack Ray, former 440-yard man, pulled a surprise when he took second place in the 100-yard dash and third in the 220. Poly showed strongest in the mile when Hinde, Poch and Plowman took Hrst, second and third. Walter Brown showed good early season form in winning the high hurdles. Peterson and Mackey tied for honors in the high jump with 5 feet 9 inches. CALIFORNIA Fnosl-I 63-ALL sTARs 59 A team composed of Poly, Lowell, Galileo and Commerce went down to defeat before the California Frosh. The Poly boys held up their end gal- lantly, making a total of 30 points. Results for the Parrot outfit include the following: Ray first in the 440, Fitzgerald first in the javelin, Walter Brown second in the high hurdles, Portman second in the pole vault, Greene second in the 440. LOWELL RELAYS While Commerce was walking off with 58 points and first place, Poly- technic slipped into second place by winning 22 points. Captain Portman tied for first in the pole vault, Ockenden, our new miler, ran in the sensa- tional time of 4:45. The Sunsetters also got a second in the mile relay, third in the 880 relay, two-mile relay, low hurdles, broad jump, high jump and football throw. lightweight Iruck N WINNING several meets thus far this term, the Poly lightweights showed up as a strong contender for the old Alpha Trio crown. With only a few men gone from last year's team the squad is com- posed of nearly all experienced men under Coach Kittredge. The best showings have been made by the 100-pound team, consisting mainly of Walsh, Frediani and McKenna. Walsh has the knack of winning the 100-yard dash with great regularity. Gerughty, another starlet, shows his heels to most of the field in the 50-yard dash. McKenna proved to be a good little broad jumper. The little fellows were clocked at 53 215 in the relay. This is close to record time. In the 110-pound class, Poly has three winners to run the 75-yard dash. Bob Stevens usually takes this event. Jack I-lata runs the 150-yard dash. These 110-pound boys also have a strong relay team. Reed of the 130-pound team is outstanding in the 440, and Trainor in the 100-yard dash. POLY 87-BALBOA 45 Displaying a superior team, the Poly lightweight traclc team rang in a great victory over the Balboa Bucs to open what we hope is to be a successful season. The best showing of the day was made by the 100-pound team. Walsh took the 100-yard dash, Gerughty toolc the 50-yard' dash and Mc- Kenna won the broad jump. They also won the relay in close to record time. In the 110-pound class Poly made a clean sweep, taking a first, second and third in the 75-yard dash. Poly also won the relay. Reed of Poly toolc the 440-yard run and Trainor won the 100-yard dash in the 130-pound class. POLY 119-EVERETT JR. HIGH 27 Stock in the Poly lightweights was on a new rise after the meet with Everett. Poly's little fellows succeeded in taking every first place but two, and the majority of seconds and thirds. Walsh, Gerughty, Lee and Hata, Stevens and Millete all grabbed first places. Everett was able to win one of the four relays. All of the running events went off in fairly good time. POLY 702-GALILEO 6426 Six points were all that separated the two teams at the end of the en- counter. The meet was extremely close throughout, with each school getting about an even number for first places. First places for Poly came in the 100-pound 100-yard dash, 110-pound 75-yard dash, 120-pound 75-yard dash, and 120-pound 200-yard dash. The Parrot 110 and 120-pound relay teams proved themselves worthy by winning their events in good time. In the field events Poly won the broad jump. Swimming . . lioli MEM:-'WHW1-Wrwz-WJFWF rWJEWdWFWdHWrWHWdWFWrWH.F SWHMNHNG With the A. A. A. swimming meet looming up as the next big event, Polyis teams are busily practicing every Friday at Fleishhacker Pool. In fact, they have been practicing since January 22. Boys who should, by previ- ous showings, place on top in the meets this term are Bob Rowan, Edwin Coe, Wallace Scott, Ray Everding, Bill Reamer, John Kuhn and Bob Calahan. These boys placed in the meet on the last day of last term which resulted in a tie with Lowell. Lowell has been monarch of the city high schools in swimming for the last twenty years, having been dethroned only once in that time, namely, by the Poly lightweights last year. It looks at the present time as though it might happen again this year because of Lowell's lack of material. Coach Kitchen of Lowell has only one point winner from last year. Poly does not lack for material, except for the lightweight relay. Coach Kinney believes that he has a fine chance to win both lightweight and unlimited divisions this year. Captains Everding and Scott are both sure place winners in several events. Several practice meets were arranged for the term. GOLF That Poly this season has the strongest golf team in the history of the school, is the opinion of Coach Kinney. Poly is the defending champion and is expected to retain both the city and the individual cups. The Poly lads have won the title for three consecutive years. With Dalton Henderson, junior champion of the State of California, as a leader, our golfers are pretty sure to live up to expectations. Dalton is capable of shooting around a 69, and it is predicted that he will be a future star. Poly also has two other good players in Mason Buflington and Renton Garrett. Henderson will try for individual honors, besides playing with Garrett, Buflington and Bruce. Incidentally, Bruce is a new-comer to the school. Roy Mort, an old hand at swatting the little white pill, cannot play this year be- cause he is too good at swatting a larger white pill with a willow instead of a mashie. He had to choose between the two and he took baseball. If there were any state tournaments, Coach Kinney would certainly enter his present team, he stated recently. The team twice defeated the Cali- fornia Frosh. In a return match they won in spite of the fact that they played on the difficult Berkeley Country Club Course. The fact that the course was strange did not stop these lads. Henderson shot an 81, Kibbee 82, West 82, Vaughan 81, Gandy 81, and Bennett 82. Girls! Sports lFWFIFW1-W0F'WFWJF'F0FWiEWrWWEW1-WWrWF'MFWr'Ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ITH a greater number of girls out for sports and a greater enthusiasm shown, the spring term of 1932 turned out well for all athletic activities. Seven sports, one more than in pre- vious years, were offered. Baseball, as the major sport, had the largest turnout, volley ball and hockey followed closely in popularity. BASEBALL This sport was greeted with such enthusiasm that over a hundred girls signed up at once. Miss McCall and Miss Tausche took over the coaching. Seven teams were organized: two each from the freshmen, sophomores and juniors, and one from the seniors. Two leagues were played off, MA teams composed the American League, UB teams the National League. The championship game was played on the day of the G. A. A. banquet. FRESHMEN. Of the two teams composed of freshmen, one played in the American and one in the lNational League. Lillian Margolin was captain of the A team and also did the pitching. Mickey d'Amico held down the position of catcher. For the B team Marie Albach acted in the double capacity of captain and pitcher. Yvonne Manning was elected frosh manager and G. A. A. representative. SOPHOMORES. Many of last year's freshmen stars returned to make up the sophomore teams. Caroline Knottner was captain of the NA team and did a fine job at fielding. Othilie Penzato had the regular pitching position, and Jean I-Iunken supported her well as catcher. Audrey Hamilton and Doris Koldenstrodt were outstanding in the field. For the B team Barbara Roe acted as captain and pitcher, while Bernice Jorgensen caught. Mabel Stack was the sophomore manager and representative. JUNIORS. Heralded as the probable winners of the interclass crown, the juniors quickly organized their A team. With Ruth Shackleford pitching and Phyllis Gould catching, this team had the best battery in the school. Such basemen and fielders as Alice Sullivan, Rose Meagles and Ethel Spencer helped to fill out a championship team. B team had as pitcher and captain Mattie Schmitt, while jane McKillop displayed much skill behind the plate. Ruth Shackleford was manager and representative. SENIORS. A small but experienced turnout greeted the senior baseball call. Only one team was formed, of which Frances McMahon was elected captain. Although the seniors had scarcely enough girls to form a team, a good showing at all the games was to their credit. Frances McMahon proved her worth in the box, pitching fast but steadily. Birdeena Gowan performed well as catcher, and Anita Barrett and Rose McDonald were excellent base- men. Frances Jones was the team manager. ff ff ff ff ffl! ff ff ff ff Fx ff F1 ff FFF! ff ffelff ff ff ff fn VOLLEYBALL Almost equaling baseball in attendance, volleyball drew over eighty girls out every Thursday. Miss McCall did the coaching for all four classes of this sport and did it well. The second year had by far the largest repre- sentation-more than fifty. In this sport also two leagues were formed. The American League was composed of the senior, junior and sophomore A teams, the National League included the freshman teams and the MB and C sophomore teams. Many exciting games resulted from the play-offs. FRESHMEN. Fifteen freshmen turned out for volleyball, and though it was a comparatively new sport for most of them, they turned out a team more than capable of holding its own with their rivals, the sophomores. Mae Denny was elected captain and manager. SOPHOMORES. Out of the large number which turned out from this class, three teams were formed. Suzanne Young was chosen captain of the A team, Audrey Jones, of the B team, and Florence Hyde, of the RCN team. Sue Taylor became soph manager and representative. JUNIORS. About twenty juniors attended the practices. just one team was formed from this group, with the rest of the girls acting as substitutes. Lois Rea served as captain and Ruth Sondhaus as manager. SENIORS. Although the seniors had the smallest turnout, they had one of the best teams because most of the girls were experienced players. Martha Markey captained the team and Grace Chaquette was its manager. HOCKEY Introduced as a new activity, hockey turned out to be the hard luck sport. After a few practices the school was deprived of the use of a hockey field. When it was found that no other field could be obtained, ice skating was substituted. But this also proved to be a failure, as only a few girls were able to attend. Miscellaneous finally took the place of the ill-fated hockey. At the beginning of the term the following managers were elected: Yvonne Pullen, freshmen, Claire Shaughnessy, sophomores, Helen Collins, juniors, Mathilda Colclough, seniors. TENNB Tennis, the ever popular American sport, called ,out about fifty girls for the first meeting. Through the able instruction of Miss Tausche, many promising players have been developed from this group. Florence Biddell, manager, and Maura Barry, assistant, were a big help to the coach. SWUMBHNG Although many more signed up for this sport at the beginning of the term, only twenty received their awards. These twenty, however, well de- served them, as they had attended the practices at Crystal Palace Baths almost L: F . I ll 2 2 E 'i f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff every Thursday, and also participated in the big inter-school meet at the end of the term. Alice Lubeck and Doris Schrader were the swimming managers. GOLF After being discontinued for a term, golf was resumed this semester. More than thirty girls journeyed out to Lincoln Park every week to receive instruction in the use of the various clubs. Because of the size of the group, two classes were held, one Monday and the other Tuesday. Miss Thompson and Mrs. Koehler had charge of these classes, but the instruction was given by a professional. Patricia Krauskopp was golf manager and representative. RIDING Only one horseback riding class was conducted this term, as there were only six out for the sport. Miss Thompson had charge. TENNIS TEAM Started as a new activity this semester, the tennis team has now become an established institution. Those composing the team are Mildred and Edna Connell, Leona Tompsky, Alma Wolfenden, Evelyn Harris, Dorothy Smith, Frances McMahon and Bernice Fross. Mrs. Koehler is the faculty sponsor. TUMBLING TEAM Continuing its activity from last term, the tumbling team held tryouts at the first of the semester. The girls who qualified and became members of the team were Bernice Fross, Yvonne Manning, Ruth Clawson, Mary Lou Packard and Vera Self. Those carrying over from last term are Mickey d'Amico, Etta Fulham, Eleanor Jones, Florence Anderson, Catherine Hearst, Lee Alves and Jeanette Smith. Catherine Hearst was captain of the team. G. A. A. Efficient oflicers and interested members were combined to make this term an active one for the G. A. A. The season's sport activities were officially started at the Sign-Up Rally. Other events which the Association conducted were an ice-skate, a swim, a roller skate and a hike. The G. A. A. board, consisting of the oflicers and representatives from the sports, planned and carried out these events. Officers for the term were: president, Rose Mc- Donald, vice-president, Virginia Tilley, secretary-treasurer, Lucy Arabian. Bringing the sport season to a close, the big semi-annual banquet was held May 17. Helen Collins had charge of the decorations, and Yvonne Manning managed the entertainment. More than two hundred girls attended and received their G. A. A. and after-school awards. 66Gee,,Iack, I I like that 99 lflf l X ll l Y 2950 l-lere's The slyle and qualify lhal appeals To high school and college men!
