The plans are formu- lated by the Architects or faculty and the Chief Engineers or deans stand by to straighten out construction problems. Laying the foundation are the freshmen, and as sopho- mores the Qround Tloor is laid. Juniors are the Second Story Wien, and the seniors add the Tinishing Touches before going on to higher goals. Unterior Decoration of four years of building is taken care of by our organizations. Building Brawny Boys or Sports have an important part in our plans as the most popular and enjoyed of activities. Tirne Out, alias student activities, is the welcome rest period in the heavy con- struction schedule. Not only is Ponce building the future of its sudents educationally but will very soon be involved in the actual construction of a new school building. Land has been purchased on the corner of Lejeune and Bird Roads. Building is one of the keys of progress. The Architects at Ponce hold our key to progress. It will be those students who use the key that will be ready for tomorrow. S Q X355 x A wx x xr.- L K i s X xx! issms N u Q21 2xSNQxM W xx X XX -wx N fgsggiggfx KSN QXX Xb., Q N K n X .

Now when we must think of giving Ponce up soon for a junior high school building we must look ahead with pride to the building of a new and better high school. A good school needs leaders-leaders who have the ability to get things done and keep things going. With the problems of building the new school in our minds, we want to thank Mrs. Davis, Mrs. Jarman, and Mrs. Archer for the truly great job they have done at Ponce de Leon all these years. To you, Mrs. Davis, Mrs. Jarman, and Mrs. Archer, we dedicate the CAVALEON of 1946. , wg , 1 1 1 v www' XXX X , 1:1 ' W 1 , , 1 1 'UU ffloese Jlrcbitects deal with our future and past 'Until we are graduate seniors at last. ARCHITECT-IN-CHIEF 218 Q f Y I' V10 IN ORDER that you may better understand the school of which you are a part and feel the inspiration within these walls which share so richly in tradition, we have put in this annual a little of the past, much of the present, and a word of the future. The best part of any school cannot be put into words. We are proud of our spirit, ideals, and achievements, and we hope this annual will help others catch and keep that spirit. I extend my congratulations to the faculty, annual staff, and the student body for making this year so successful. I CHIEF ENGINEERS IE You PEER into the busy office with a shingle plainly printed Dean of Girls, you'll see one of the old timers at Ponce-Mrs. Susan Arch- er. Twenty years she has watched Ponce grow and the students mul- tiply. Back of her quiet nature there is a real friend to teachers and students alike. With her many duties as dean of girls she also teaches shorthand classes.

Splicer, mender, adviser, teacher extraordinary are only a few words that explain this hard worker. 1 Between teaching mechanical drawing and acting as dean of boys, Mr. Day is busy helping his Hi-Y boys with their projects. Making the attic into a theater for visual educa- tion is one project of this school year that put a feather in his hat.

GENIUS PLAYING NWOULDNQT IT BE FUN to take a gander at our faculty when theyire not behind a desk or with a piece of chalk in hand? ,lust for fun let's take a Saturday off and see what we will find. Llp early Saturday our first discovery would be Mrs. Claire Marley and Mr. Paul Cremaschi swimming at Math- eson Hammock. A wet note of har- mony prevails as the sun beats upon these two teachers of the fine arts. Refreshed somewhat, we would soon take leave of the swimmers and on the way to peer at Miss Mary Cecile Ions, we see Mrs. Virginia Gleason and Nir. Abbott Messler, fishing poles and all. Mr. Messier claims hehas a scien- tific method of catching fish. YX7 e donit know how true this is but Mrs. Gleason has a picnic basket bulging. Guess she has his method classified! After con- siderable debate over where fish are biting we continue on our way to Miss Ions., To our surprise Miss Margaret Clark, and Mrs. Maudie Cook have joined Miss lons in a morning digging in the good earth. Index files, type- writers, and Shakespeare are unheard of among these tillers of the soil as they fidget over their marigolds, asters, and weeds. NW ith an explicit education on the do's and don't's of gardening, we decide to hunt something to eat. Our intuition leads us to Mrs. Belle Crutchfield's, where aromas of the most tempting variety seep suggestive- ly out the windows. Subtle hints brought forth a lunch for kings to feast on. Having stuffed, or as they Q' x- ei V .ad J 1 X. 3 S i 1-2 say in the finer circles eaten too far beyond our capacity, we bid good bye to our queen of the culinary art with the intention of seeing what Mrs. Maria l-lornor was up to. Upon our arrival Mrs. l-lorner is extremely absorbed in sewing with Mrs. Helen Evans as a sewing compan- ion. This leaves us in stitches so we literally fly to the airport to see Mr. Fred-Wilson. We are just a trifle late as he, Ivlr. Day, and Miss Keuffel have just taken off. Slightly weary we decide to make one more stop before going home. Mrs. Pearl Davis is the subject chosen. A most peaceful scene is found at Mrs. Davisi. She is working crossword puzzles while Mrs. Edith Mason plays the piano, and over in the corner Miss Katherine McGibben is reading a mystery story. This last paragraph is just reasoning. You see after observing our faculty in their off minutes, we began to think. ln most circles they would call their go- ings-on hobbies, but we will just call it GENIUS PLAYING. P I-lackley. Above, talking over the won ders of visual education in teaching the social sciences are department members.

Easy now, set it down with careln Such is the figurative speech of Miss Christine Young, our vocational guidance director. Laying the cornerstones for the future by the Kuder Vocational Interests Tests to show what fields we naturally like, by aptitude tests to see what abilities we have in such fields as engineering, nursing, and clerical work, and by tests of mental ability, Miss Young has arranged a guidance program at Ponce. We lay our cornerstones carefully under the individual attention of Miss Young., Being the first school in Dade County to start a vocation guidance program of this type, we at Ponce are justly proud of its achievements. The realization that all firm and everlast- ing structures have well laid cornerstones makes us aggressive as we strive to help each student find the vocation best suited for him.

'-' gif' H ARCHITECTS AT WORK SELDOM is there much said in appre- ciation of a few of the Architects who take on added construction chores. We wouldnit want to be the first to tell you that Mrs. Virginia Gleason has worried, fretted, lost sleep over, col- lected, and disbursed science books, English books, math books, history books, and every other kind of book the state of Florida lends the students of PDL. Through all this she still has a sane mind and our bookroom is one of the most, if not the most, efficiently run in Dade County. W hy should we take the time and space to let you know that Mrs. Nell Leifeste has run herself ragged trying to keep the camera in the theaterisup- plied with reels of film so you can have a painless period of education? W7 hat difference should it make to you if Miss Christine Young goes un- noticed for her splendid work in voca- tional guidance , or if Mrs. Mary Coov- er tries to keep some semblance of order with her guard system? What could you do for Miss Eth- elyn Massey if you saw her leaning over the mimeograph machine, ink smeared and weary, mimeographing study sheets and such? Why should you worry if Mrs. Helen Evans works herself into a state of nervous frustration over the Cava- leon and Tribune, or if Mrs. Pearl Davis slaves over your permanent records to see if you have all the necessary credits to graduate? We don't see any reason, whatso- ever, in telling you about all these Architects who do more than their share of work. We want you to hear it somewhere else. We aren't going to take the time and space to let you know. It doesn't make any difference to us and we aren't going to worry about your finding out.

BOUND FOR COLLEGE Realizing that education is an important asset in establishing one's self, Ponce students have ranked far above average in the country in pur- suing college educations. A follow-up-study that was inaugurated this year showed that sixty-four percent of the graduates of the past several years were now in college while the nation's average is from nine to Hfteen percent. The greatest number of these are studying in their hometown university-the University of Miami. Many have chosen col- leges within the state while others are studying in all parts of the country. A modern world requires modern minds. Ponce de Leon is alert in helping encourage and assist each student in selecting his college.

XVell, it's our own Student Council under the direction of Miss Katherine Megibben. Every semester elections are held for the officers. Then representatives from homerooms and clubs are chosen. Meeting every week, the Student Council has published the student handbook and visitor cards, and has supervised fire drills, a ping pong tournament, cafeteria and campus cleanups, intramural sports activi- ties, and the receiving of Student Council pins. Being a member of the National and Southern Associations of Student Councils, delegates at- tended the Dade County Student' Council Federation Meeting on March 15. 76 + Top: the first semesteris officers and cabinet, seated left to right: Bertha Moore, secretary of treasury, Nell Champion, chaplain, Barbara Fos- gate, secretary of publicity, jackie Cieger, re- cording secretary, Anne Ellis, corresponding secretary.

THEY RATE - WITH HONORS ONE OF Tl-IE HIGHEST HONORS that can be bestowed upon a Ponceite is to be tapped into the National Honor Society, and later be initiated. Students warranting membership must have an eighty-seven average, be passed by the vote of the faculty and members of the club, and be outstanding in leadership, scholarship, character, and service. The N.H.S. pin, the keystone with the flaming torch, symbolizes these qualities. Founded in 1927 at Ponce and meeting twice a semester, this branch of the club has Principal H. N. Rath and Mrs. Edith Mason as sponsors. ln the upper picture left to right 'first row: McQuaide, Denning, Vance, Meyers, Ellis, Mitchell, Geiger, Sullivan, Mixson, Shaver, XVeiland, Virrick.

ORATORS WHO RATE CREAM or THE CROP of debaters are these National Forensic Leaguers.

The Duke finds it all right, but when he returns and the king refuses him the hand of his daughter, he unsheathes his sword and kills the king. And so it goes, the queen dies of grief, the duke takes poison, and the princess dies from mental strain.

In 1945 the club was split and the junior Girl Reserves, made up of freshmen, was formed. Living up to their Christian ideals, both branches have contributed not only to benefit local groups but also na- tional. The senior girls, under the leadership of Mrs. Maudie E. Cook, and Mrs. Katherine Hackley, sent 700 pieces of clothing and 300 letters to the Netherlands, the junior girls, guided by Mrs. Elizabeth Bowlby and Mrs. Nelle Hill, sponsored the tuberculosis seal sale and victory canned food drive for overseas relief.

NE :ENE,QRHENSQBESEEMQQESSHRN1NESS! 535 as 7 VAULTING up AND oven-typical of the manner in which the Cavalier backfield thundered into their opponents throughout the 1945 season. Pictured from left to right: Dick Fandrey, Doug Preston, and Dave McDonald. Despite being out of three games, McDonald was high scorer racking up 48 points. Fandrey, playing his last year, sparkled in his defensive play. Linemen from left to right: Chester Hunter, Lawrence Hebert, Bill Hartnett, Bill Kerdyk, Al DeFoor, and Kirk Wescott. XVith all but two first stringers graduating, the prospects for next year are rather vague. Co-Captains Hebert and Hartnett, and Bill Kerdyk proved mainstays of the line through- out the rugged schedule of games. DeFoor, although ill last part of the season, played a fine defensive game and was in there driving most of the time. CHARGING .... that is exactly what Mr. Hebert did. As a result of his brilliant playing and fine sportmanship, he was honored with the left guard position on the Miami Herald 'Little- All State' eleven, and was chosen athlete of the year in the senior class superlatives. As co- captain he ably managed the team, and al- though missing three tilts because of a broken jaw sustained in the second Ft. Lauderdale game, he was in there fighting every minute. Waayyyy--- up there! jump after the elusive oval was a feat that kept Ponce's aggressive ends, Kirk Westcott and Bill Wlright, busy in every game. XVescott, third year man, played bang-up- ball, and certainly will be the mainstay of next year's forward wall. ffl! SEASON OFFERS SNAPPY HLTS Meekly starting their 1945 grid season, the Cavaliers battled to an 18 to 18 deadlock against Fort Lauderdale at the Orange Bowl on September 14. However a week later they tri- umphantly skinned NVest Palm Beach out of a 13 to I2 tussel. ln their next tilt they pulled a 2 TD game out of the Hre when Ray Pierce split the uprights to provide the Cavaliers with a one point margin to defeat the Miami Beach Typhoons. W'ith Dave McDonald pacing the attack the Cavaliers thoroughly laced the Lake XVorth Trojans 25 to 7 in the first game played there. McDonald scored 2 touchdowns and sparked the team to its victory. journeying up-state to Ft. Pierce the red and black suffered the first loss, 6 to 0 at the hands of the Fighting Eagles. The game was played on a wet field, thus hindering Ponce's aerial offen- sive attack. That one-half of the schedule was over, and 4 out of 5 victories, seemed unevident to the Cables lads as they buckled under the vengeful Typhoons and Flying Lis. 1945 FOOTBALL SCORES OPPONENT Fort Lauderdale 'IS XVest Palm Beach 12 Miami Beach 12 Lake Worth 7 Fort Pierce 6 Miami Beach 12 Fort Lauderdale 6 South Broward 7 Andrew jackson 6 Fort Myers lfl PONCE 18 13 13 25 0 7 0 8 33 7 O4 In the Cavaliers second tilt with Miami Beach, the Typhoons had the game all the way through and won out 12 to 7 after the home team had finally garnered a TD in the final quarter. Certainly the second Lauderdale tilt was the most tragic, when Co- captain Lawrence Hebert suffered a broken jaw in the initial period. The Lis went on to shutout Ponce 6 to O. Thus the Cavaliers, losses jumped to 3 with 4 wins. Smacking down the heretofore unbeaten, untied, and unscored on South Broward eleven, the Red and Black halted their own losing streak, when Coach Phoney Smithis us- ually aggressive team bowed to the poor end of an 8 to 7 score. XVith further lust in their heart the PDL boys slaughtered the favor- ed Andrew jackson eleven 33 to 6 in Poncels final conference game of the year. This victory not only clinched the Little Three Champion- ship, but strengthened their hold on Hrst place in the Gulfstream Con- ference. To top off the season the Ponce- ites trekked over to Ft. Myers to be defeated 14 to 7 in a rather poor game. It was clearly a game for the seniors since Coach jack Gramley played every available last year man. Qs' Pgv ' Sw... se,x s Bn.

WHAT'S GONE - WHAT'S LEFT! GRADUATING s13N1oRs make a large opening in the line and backfield of next fall's varsity eleven. ln the backlield, Ponce lost 5 men: Dick Cassidy, Ed Mon- tague, Dick Fandrey, jack Raudenbush, jack NVilkins, and XVes Bunce. Cassidy left school last February, moving upstate. All the other fellows have graduated from Ponce, going out to various, still undecided colleges. This leaves the backfield with only 3 sure starters: Dave McDonald, high scorer last season with 48 points, Ray Pierce, and Billy Powers, a driving 'back who car- ried the mail last year, and plays a fine offensive game as well as defensive. With only two positions, left end and right tackle, held by juniors, the line was hit hardest with its loss of 9 men. Al DeFoor, left tackle, left open a difficult position, which may be hard to Hll, Hebert, left guard, vacated his post, with jack Keena who substituted for him, a possible nominee, Bill Hartnett, center, has under- study Vic Dacy to follow up in the lineis middle spot, Bill Kerdyk, right guard, who played a fine game, left his place open for several prospects. Coaches will have to Hnd a player for Bill XVright's right end position. Substitutes graduating are Benny Klotz, Larry Cahill, Jim Harrison, and Hugh Wood. + MEMBERS of the varsity football team left to right. back row: Ray Pierce, Dick Fandrey, Dave McDonald, Kirk XVestcott.

Beating Edison, Miami Beach, and Fort Lauderdale, the Little Cavaliers succumbed to Miami High. They later met Okeechobee, and won that tilt for a standing of 4 wins, and 1 loss. Last but not least the freshman team, who boast an undefeated season. Under Coach Menacof the boys traveled to Miami Shores and whipped them 13 to 6. Then they took on the B team, whitewashing it 6 to 0. And a group of senior under the title of the Dusty Dustersn took it on the nose, being defeated 7 to 6 by the frosh. 105 f'I WAS A 98 LB. WEAKLINGH IN LINE with the nationwide attempt at building up the health and stamina of American youth, s gym tutors put the boys through a phy- education course that either makes or a boy. Opening gym classes provide a period of con- tentment to students when they play football and volleyball during the class periods, while intermittently drilled in the fundamentals of correct marching, but within a short time they are immediately launched into an extensive course of tumbling, which begins on the mats with somersaults and such, into the more dif- ficult twists on the springboard, and work on the parallel bars. That this course improves the boys physically is true, but also it improves the boys' mental alertness, and sharpens their coordination. During the year others participate in boxing, individually and collectively, wrestling, track workouts, and last but not least, the most unfavored-by-boys idea in the course: dancing. Every Friday, if one ambled by the gym he heard terrifying groans emitted from the inter- ior. Why? Because that was the class for dancing with the girls. Softball provides some diversion from the workout in the spring months. But soon the boys went back into the body-building gym- nastics. 106 + PHYSICAL EDUCATION CLASSES on the field 5 this particular snap is of the boys passing the baton. Below them is the gym class participating in track events. Pictured below is Coach Mitchell Menacof viewing the activities of the classes. HARDWOOD BATTLERS HAVE EVEN EINIS OPENING THE 1946 SEASON the Ponce Hardwood members journeyed to Redlands on January 4 and set the i'Beanpickers' back 26 to 20 in their usual initial game. First class competition came in the form of 5 cagers from Miami high who showed the rather baffled Ponce quintet how, when they dealt them their second loss, 32 to 29. Getting back in stride the Cavaliers invaded Miami Beach, and deftly conquered the Typhoons 24 to 15. Talbot Trammell began to show his skill and dexterity in hitting the bucket when he led Ponce scoring with 6 points. Again the Miami quintets proved too much for the Coral Cables lads when the Edison five handed them another defeat, 36 to 32. Suffering their second straight loss the Cavaliers suc- cumbed to the unbeaten Fort Lauderdale quin- tet by a lopsided score, 36 to 16. The L's later proved to be superior when they went on to lead the conference, and take the Gulfstream championship by defeating Ponce in the semi- finals and Miami Beach in the finals. Endeavoring to get out of the rut, and prove they knew the hoop was still up there, the Ponce Quintet smacked the jackson Generals 55 to 11, in their highest offensive scoring tilt so far. To no avail Ponce's star forward, Trammell, scored 17 points in the second end of a 30 to 26 score. Notching their second win of the season to the tune of 43 to 26, the Edison Raiders again defeated the Cavaliers. ln a fast moving but not too dexterous game, the Red and Black piled up 61 markers to the Lake NVorth Trojans' 29, in their second meeting of the year. Trammell again proved his worth by totaling 23 points on 10 buckets and 3 free tosses, while NVard scored 12, and Kirk Westcott 11. The Miami Stingarees collected 45 points to bowl over the Cavaliers 45 to 27. lronically enough Bill XVright pulled the boner of the year when he obligingly dropped the ball in Andrew Jackson's hoop, but despite this the Red and Black went on to win 32 to 25 over the weak General's five. That the first injury suffered by a Ponce cager came in the last game of the year seemed the only outstanding incident when the Cavali- ers ambled up to West Palm Beach and rather haphazardly overcame the Wildcats 43 to 41. Early in the tilt Kirk Westcott hastened off the hard wood with gore gushing from his head down his face. After rinsing off the wound, he immediately dressed and was taken to the hospital where he had 3 stitches taken in the gash over his eye. x ,QSM Varsity basketball team from left to right, back row: Coach Gramley, Managers Robert Bartnett and Bruce Booherj middle row: Kirk XVestcott, Bill Wright, Edgar Montague, Talbot Trammell, front row: Doug Preston, Read Montague, Billy Ward Dick Fandrey, Ray Pierce.

Edgar Montague winning three first places, was high point man. jack XVilkins, jimmy Saunders, and jack Raudenbush rated in that order. Bobby Marx ran the 50 yard dash in 5.3 seconds. Despite a sprained ankle, Doug Phillips won the quarter mile, Dick Fandrey, though troubled by a Jackson miler jeff Cason, took the mile for another first for Ponce. XVith a 5' 41, leap, Montague took first honors in the high jump. Therefore in its first meet Ponce captured 10 lirsts, 2 seconds, and 3 thirds. Coach Cramley took his 15 man squad to the conference meet in May. At last year's first Gulfstream meet, held on May 18 at XVest Palm Beach, Ponce placed fourth, totaling 21 points. It is hoped by the coaches, and expected by the team, for Ponce to rate much higher in the meet this year. aaz'4m7Zew5 Inaugurating a new team sport at Ponce, 12 boys make the swimming team, which has com- petitively challenged local schools to swim meets. Against their first competition, a squad from Lake Worth, the Ponce Aquateers lost at the sorry end of a 50 to 37 score. Held at Venetian Pool in Coral Gables, Ray Trindade captured the only first for the Gables' lads with his diving in the 3 meter contest. He took second in the 100 yard free style, and Tom Fryer won second honors in the 220 yard free style. Others participating in the meet were George Pena, Billy XVard, Fred Lewis, and Donald Lanigan. PUGILISTS PDUND WITH PASSION Ruooieo, Rouou, CAPABLE,-all these adjectives adequately described Ponce de Leonis ringmen. These pugilists of the highest degretfcombine brawn with fast footwork and dexterous boxing. Having held the preliminaries at school, the finalists went to Gesu Roof in March to battle for top honors in their respective titles. Everything turned out with results as follows: Chester Hunter, defending his heavyweight title, defeated Frank W'ilcox in an interesting bout, Dave Rinke took Don Allen in his stride to win the title of light heavyweight championship , middleweights Bill XVright and Al Gustinger drew in a boxing contest, Kirk Westcott retained his welterweight title by defeating George Thompson, Bill Dunsford stopped Bill Thomp- son for the lightweight championship, feather- weight james Lee defeated Fred Bridges 5 for the bantamweight title, Don LeBaron stopped Bill Waddell , the Hintzke brothers, Ted and Dave, successfully defended their titles, flyweight and paperweight, respectively, against Bob Kuhl and Tony Gulliver. All title winners who repeated from last year, were awarded miniature golden gloves, while new winners received silver gloves. STAR PERFORMERS-three fellows who did not participate in the school golden gloves, but did fight in the Miami Golden Gloves bouts: Al DeFoor, George Pena, and Francis McCrink, all winners in the Miami fights. Al has fought for six years, climaxing his young career with a trip to New York, fighting in the Golden Gloves at Madison Square Garden. Winning the open lightweight title at Miami by a KO., Al added to his present record of 22 bouts. He represented Miami at New York, but was defeated in his first bout. George has fought for a year, winning 9 bouts. This year he competed in the open division bantamweight, receiving the title. Francis Mc- Crink, winner at Miami, lost in his featherweight division bout at the Garden. GEORGE PENA raises his arm in victory at the Miami Daily News bouts. K V I A . fvfin 2:1 . '599hu '-1-..

At this writing,--Ed's note: Deadline prohibited inclusive games-the Caval- ier's standing in the district was 5 wins and 10 losses, while the conference record was in second place with 3 wins and 4 losses. 8 Returning lettermen were: Tom Day, Talbot Trammell, Dave McDonald, Captain Dutch Kirkland, Kirk Westcott, Fred and Bob Schiess, jack Keena, Ray Pierce, and Vic Dacy. Other players include: Bill Powers, Doug Preston, joe Ciancimino, jim Wfright, and Dick Fandrey. That they were favored to take their initial tilt of the season from the Redland nine seemed ,ff T ff ' D b ' no help to the Cables, lads as they bowed to the supreme hurling effort of Gene Cvossman by a 5 to 0 score. C-ossman blanked the home team spreading four hits and fanning nine. ln their second game the Cavalieris came out victoriously at the top of an 8 to 2 score over Andrew Jackson. Kirk XVestcott netted our first round-tripper with a blast into left-center field. With a sharp eye Westcott poled another fly deep into left-center that a good fielder would have caught, as it was Kirk made home on the four base error. Dave Callander and Vic Dacy split the pitching chores, each allowing one run. Next day, the Cavs journeyed upstate to XVright Field, the home of the XVest Palm Beach Wildcats, and politely yet rather sloppily drop- ped the tilt to the Wildcats at the short end of the 8 to 3 score. Tommy Day pitched, allowing six runs on 7 hits. XVith a standing of only 1 win and 2 losses, the Ponce diamondmen added to their deficit by forfeiting their game at Lake XVorth. Several key players failed to show up, letting Coach Cramley down in a time of need. At this point of the season it seemed all the boys needed either glasses or sawdust to fill up the holes in their bats. No matter how good the pitching or fielding, you have to be able to hit the apple to win any ball game. With 2 hits garnered in the Edison tilt which Ponce lost 5 to 0, third-sacker Bill Powers seemed the only half way consistent hitter. By the way, Bill wore glasses 5 maybe the whole team should have tried Poweris formula! Losing to the league leaders, Fort Lauderdale, Il to 6, the Cavs regained some scoring power. On the previous day the Ponce nine had shutout Miami Beach 2 to 0 with the 1 hit hurling of Dave Callander. Again Ponce lost in a non- conference tilt with Tech High I2 to 9. With a degree of vengeance in their sticks, the Jackson Generals came too long enough to stop Ponce 8 to 3. Fred Schiess was the star hitter of the tilt. Miami High beat Ponce 4 to 0 in their first tilt of the season. The Cavaliers came back to conquer Redlands 10 to 0 in the second game with the beanpickers. They lost to Lauderdale again by a 4 to 3 score, but came back to defeat torious mood, they surprisingly blanked Miami High 2 to 0 in an exciting tilt. 1 ,ul 1-S in- ? if .z ' L. the Lake Worth Trojans 8 to 4.

Tom Blakey, captain, and two year member, led the team into its opposition. In their lirst match which was held over in Miami Beach against the Beach High racque- teers, the Blakeymen fell down and lost all but one doubles match. ln this Blakey and Wfard went together, and defeated the Beaches' double combination. Expecting better results with more experi- ence, Captain Blakey hoped to hold up Ponce standards. Ponce captured the Southeastern League title with a perfect score. All members of that team graduated and the captain, Daniels, is now rated 5th in the nation's amateur singles. Keglew Sfmt eague Miami's first high school bowling league- and Ponce was in there battling all the way. After PDL started the fourteen week com- petition in the cellar because no team had been organized, Denis O'Donovan and Erwin Straus- burger took over the reins and the Ponce Pickers started their upward climb. They blazed right through jackson, Miami High, Tech, Beach, and the gals from Miami High and the Beach. At the turn, they were in first place, with Miami High, Edison and Beach tugging at their heels, although they dropped one game to beat Homestead while the B team came out on top by beating Edison. Falling to Miami High, the A team pulled themselves up again when they beat Andrew jackson and then came up against Edison. After beating Edison, last yearis champions, the A team went to the semi-finals, but were Edison, Miami High-boys and gals-and Tech, they still led when the final set began. Then Beach downed PDL two out of three tilts while Edison swamped Miami High three times. Ponce captured high team record, 868, and high team set, 2364. Erwin Strausburger, captain, Dave Metzger, jack Keena, and Ray Pierce topped scoring honors, followed by Chester Hunter, Homer Wfilliams, Hugh Ansley, and Denis O'Donovan.

CATHERINE SAMPLE va- cated her office in the gym in the fall of '45, Mrs. Maria B. Hornor took on thc duties of foreman. Posture straightening and general im- provement are the goal of Mrs. Hornor, and often her classes start with kill-us- thenicsn and posture rules. Her blueprints also include several activities for Ponce girls, namely, swim- ming, jumping rope, horseback riding, soccer, and speedball. Assisted by Nliss Elsa Keuffel, better known as Rickie, Mrs. Hornor may be found on Tuesday and Thursday after- noons giving a few extra tips on how to play better and building the thought of good sportsmanship. Gr she may be just having a little fun in an exciting practice game. Fridays, the wonderful days when no one changes, Mrs. I-Iornor can be found in the gym gaily calling, Swing your partner and do si do. + ABOVE: Mrs. Horner, BELow-G. A.

However, the B team went a step higher on the ladder to take second place, losing only to Miami High. ln the first round Ponce set up the ball to beat Homestead while the B team came out on top by beating Edison. Falling to Miami High, the A team pulled themselves up again when they beat Andrew jackson and then came up against Edison. After beating Edison, last year's champion, the A team went to the semi-finals, but were defeated by Miami Beach. wi -s vict BASKETBALL TEAM AKES FIRST PLACE or B team won the trophy after beating all the teams at the annual basketball tournament. Tied with Andrew jackson for first place, a three minute play-off was scheduled, leaving them still tied. Thereafter, it was whoever made the first basket and Ponce had her oppon- well-nailed in place, making her orious. In the A division Ponce was not quite as strong, coming in fourth place while Edison took the honors. FRESHMAN GIRL WINS FREE SHOT SINKING I9 out of 25 shots, Camille Oelkers copped the first place in the freshman basket ball finals. In the preliminaries at Shenandoah, Ponce's ninth graders were second only to Shenandoah's own team. Coming to the finals, however, the A team fell also to Ada Merrit, but suc- ceeded in taking victories over Andrew jackson's and Edisonis junior teams and Robert E. Lee. Vol eyballers Cop Second Place PONCl3'S FRESI-IMAN volley ballers almost laid their corner stone for posterity this year at the annual jun- ior High tournament at Moore Park. V olleying the ball to vic- tory over all opponents except Shenandoah, these sportsters took second place They came very close to claiming the trophy that Shenandoah has held for so long. Captained by Mary Ann Shaver, the Ponce nine showed they have the foun- dation for a winning team in the senior tournament next year - XVith a little more coaching,who knows? mx.iL1.i. -- T., S1 116 MINOR SPORTS FOR MAJOR ABILITY LINDER CONSTRUCTION this year is the idea of attracting more interest in minor sports. In the top left hand corner we find jane Smith, Nancy Albury, jackie Gibson, Dot Ozanne, Evelyn Fitzpatrick, and Shirley Rogers in the act of building a pyramid. Track provides a chance for girls to show their individual skill. Not only may they show their running and jumping ability, but also their strength and judgment. In the upper right hand picture jackie Gibson hands the baton to Nancy Albury in a relay race. On Fridays, the girls will usually be seen inside the gym dancing with the boys to the music of some talented Ponceite or more likely just the Vic.J' Arching into the canierais eye in the lower right are Aline Brown, Pat Fitz- gerald, and Dorothy Sclioonmaker. me-miner:-, , ,,,.swssf-,,,mewsme sxmmm:wxs,.:m,,,,,,,,, fm: New LABOR TROUBLE? STRIKES have been constantly in the news of late whether for labor or ball games. The ones referred to here, however, are definitely not of the labor type as can be plainly seen below. Clancing toward the upper right hand corner, we find the enthusiastic freshmen all ready to see that there will be no strikes. On the con- trary in the lower left are the upper classmen practicing their pitching to see how many strikes they can get on the other gals. Ping pong is one of the popular class and after school activities, especially when everyone would rather challenge Mrs. I-Iornor to a game than run around the Held. Below is a fast moving game between Betty Jane Mitchell and Bettie and jonnie Caudell. Shaping upv could be the name of this section if you are looking at Betty Lou johnson in the lower right picture. Betty Lou is the one on the right, of courswthafs Colonel, the ath- letic departmentis mascot on the left. A-mg e et- -. X-1 an-in-1-1-my-nuns.-ummm-1w.m FOR PUSTURE PERFECTIDN TAKE A LOOK at these girls pictured in the lower right. Such as these are the columns, archs, and flying buttresses in the edifice of national oflicialdom. After passing official rating tests in volleyball, basketball, tennis, or softball, these girls assisted as referees or umpires at the county tournaments. Tennis is one of the top contenders in the sports line for the girls. In an early inter-school tournament, Katherine I-lardeman was runner-up while Doralys Arias came out on top. Badminton, the favorite game of Louis Quatorze, is also the favorite of many Ponce girls, as may be seen by the enthusiastic playing of Mary Vance and Emily Gahr, above. Nike SOMETHING new this year is the or- ganization of a swimming ballet. The girls pictured left took top honors both in Miami and Sarasota, where they represented Miami in the state swimming meet. ff' Sr if 3 S S X sss:sQm. i'e:11:i Q 1w st::1:sxx.fes:f.:v ff-.Qsfs ?'..H Time out is the time for laughter and fun Jlnd many gay romps in our year-around sun FOOTBALL FANCIES A x SN OX X fx A X Q XX X A XXV QS A wiki NF X CR 1:5 .
