Blended with English is the rapid flow of Spanish conversation in the streets of Mi- ami, a city on the rim of Pan-America. The sign uaqui se habla espanol in the majority of store windows is, like the Miami Latin News, a welcome appetizer for Spanish- speaking citizens. Coral Gables with its fa- mous Spanish-styled homes adds another gen- erous pinch of Latin seasoning. Since Ponce de Leon High School, too, has so much Spanish spice stirred into its tradi- tions, wc dip our spoons with enthusiasm into the melting-pot of the Good Neighbor Policy. ln view of our especial interest in all things Pan-American, we are particularly pleased to introduce diminutive El Ponso, a tiny Latin emissary who has beached his boat on the shores of Biscayne Bay, and to devote our energies to providing a warm welcome for this ambassador from south of the border. Wlith true Spanish hospitality, Weill share with him a year's vast wealth of enjoyment, experience, and achievement. VVe've planned his school schedule as carefully as the teach- ers plan our own. Heill come to know our faculty, vie with Ponceites in the field of sports, Msit ini' on club meetings, gleefully join us in school activities, and at the last, become a mighty senior in the class of '47-- a year of growth in physical and mental sta- ture, a year of progress in developing the brotherly feeling towards our near neighbors that is so essential to a world at peace. --DIANA ROESCH FED Left to right Miss Ethlyn Massey Mrs. Pearl Davis, Mrs. Maudie Cook Mrs Juanita Jarman MISS Mary Cecile Ions.

Infinitely patient, they supported and directed us through many successful activities from the Freshman Sing through our Sophomore Dance, Junior Carnival and Prom, and senior graduation. To them, in deep appreciation of their unfailing loy- alty and firm hut gentle guidance, we dedicate this 1947 Cavaleon.

He is also a mechanical drawing instructor and sponsor of the Hi-Y cluh, which maintains a store of school supplies in his office. Under his guidance, the Hi-Y built a visual aids room, where movies on nearly all subjects are shown. Among his special activities this year is the founding of a flying club, the Cavalairs. Known as Scottie to fellow camera enthusiasts, Mr. Day has made a movie of Ponce activities, and has., in the past, taken many pictures for former Ca-valeons. fa? gsm, MR.

Mrs. Archer is one of the veteran teachers herc, having started teaching at Ponce when the school was first moved to its present location in 1926. In 19410, after being head of thc commercial department, Mrs. Archer took over her present position, that of dean of girls. She derives a great deal of pleasure from working with the Ponce girls, hecause, as she says, wllhc job hcrc is one of guidance, rather than of disciplincfv Among her outside interests, Mrs. Archer has heen active in Red Cross work, especially during the war.

Something new in these courses has come with the introduction hy Dr. C. C. Peters, director of Americanism through social studies, University of Miami, of experimental classes that are student con- trolled as far as the subjects studied dur- ing the semester are concerned. These special courses have embraced American history, senior civies, and sociology. Wlith an industrious class, this experimental course may prove very interesting. The material, in the form of books, pamphlets, etc., for these classes is supplied hy Dr. Peters himself. Last semester, a course was offered in psychology, taught hy Mrs. Herherta Leonardy, which proved very popular with the students taking the course. Equipped with new text hooks that bring the student right through the UN conferences, our world history classes have ample opportunity to study the economic and political aspects of war and peace. -LESTON NAY Mrs. Ruth Johnson, American history Lefl ln right, top to bottom: Mrs. Mary Coover. com- mercial geography, Miss Katherine Davis, American historyg Mrs, Herherta Lennurdy, sociology and de- hnlingg Miss Elhlyn Massey, world historyg Miss Katherine Megihben.

Wlorking in connection with the hiology, chem- istry, and physics divi- sions, the general science students get a hctter-than- average lmackground on which to work. The hiol- ogy division, offered chief- ly to tenth graders, has planned field trips this year to further associate thc students with the world ahout them. ln chemistry, a more detailed study is made than in any other division, with increased emphasis living put on atomic struc- ture in its relation to the formation of chemical compounds. With the addition of hundreds of dollars worth of equipment, the physics department gives future engineers an insight into the various fields open to them. fLEs'1'0N NAY T ,L,,.

For this section of the Ponceite's education, there is the athletic department, Where, under the able instruction of the men and women pictured on this page, the students-both boys and girls-are really put through their paces. ln boys' physi- cal education, activities are conducted in four week groups, thus enabling the students to get a good basic knowledge of rules, play- ing technique, etc., in many of today's more popular sports. The girls, too, receive in- struction in such games as basketball, had- minton., softball, and other sports. .Both boys and girls get the usual calesthenics and marching drill. Of course, under this department are the various competitive sports that aid in mak- ing up the school-life of Ponce. Q S5 ie P' ,- if Q :1 X EL P0 0 BUILDS ,EM AND BREAKS 'EDI Football!

The lone tally was scored by .lack Wilkins on an 88 yard run in the fourth period. Credit for stopping the Generals' offense goes to a secret defense produced by Coach Johnny Noppenburg. Ponce opened the season by completely out-passing the Lake Worth Trojans to the tune of 19 to 0. But in their second game their passing attack baekfired by setting up both of Pahokee's T.D.,s as the Cavaliers bowed, 14 to 13. The next week a strong Miami Beach eleven crossed the bay into the Orange Bowl to smear thc Ponce cripples by a score of 25 to 13. This defeat was followed by a heartbreaking setback at the hands of a light but power- ful Dania team, 14 to 0. ln their first out of town game, a critical case of fumblitis hampered the Ponce Team as they fell before West Palm Beach, 18 to 0. The following week Coach Nop- penberg sent only underelassmen to Fort Pierce to face a 20 to 0 drubbing. 'DAVE MCDONALD, first string All-Confer- ence, second string Little All-State, and third string All-City back, will probably leave his spot to .lack Stahl, while Vic Daey, first string All-Conference center, third string Little All-State, and honorable mention on the All-City Team, will turn his position over to Tom Gibson, who alternated with him this year. Chester Hunter, who held the same honors as Dacy, only at tackle, will probably leave his spot to Bud Nelson, while his co-worker, Hugh Ansley, will leave his to John Gazlay. Kirk Westcott and ,Bill Stephens will leave their positions to George Lane and Bill Wlard. .Both Stephens and Wlard earned hon- orable mention on all teams.

Their second game was a close one, but Edison came out 011 top, 6 to 0. This was followed hy a 12 to 0 setback at the hands of the Baby Stingarecs. All these were avenged when they romped over the Lauderdale eleven 18 to 6. But on their home grounds they dropped the next tilt to Jackson, 13 to 6. Next they showed their improvement to the Miami High Club by giving an 18 to 0 performance. After this victory they shellaeked the Miami Shores Boys' Club 25 to 0. BEES ANI!

Mr. Gramley and I were just discussing this ycar's basketball team. Mr. Gramley, why don't you tell El Ponso what you just told me? I know he would like to hear it, too. Wlell, El Ponso, during the early part of December we had nlore than seventy fellows out here in the gym to try out for basket- ball. Of course in every group of boys you will find some who are just too lazy to stick to the basketball training rules. There are some also, who find basketball is too much, along with their other activities. For these two reasons and a few others the boys kept dropping out till a few days before our first game we had left just what we wanted in the first place, the cream of the crop. 32 In the first pirture at the top of the page we find referee .loe Mason and players Ray Pierce and Dave McDonald. The second photo lrames George Lane and Tom Gibson. El Ponso says that is George Lane up in the air after the ball. Oh, yes, the referee in this photo is Gal1by', Fields.

Our opening game was with Redlands. The boys may have been a little nervous stepping on the hardwood for the first time in the l9-1-7 season, but they were so full of self- confidence that they bowled over their oppo- nents 50 to 30. The next game was a real set-up. Tech scored only 18 points to our 41. Dania was the third and perhaps saddest team. For it was against her that Ponce rolled up its highest score of the year, with a 59 to 32 victory. Alter stepping ovcr Gesu 4-6 to 26 and Lake Worth 42 to 33, the team was still full of self confidence. However, nervous tension of the early season had worn off and the team began to relax a little. This was clear during the next game when Ponce scored only 21 points against the mighty Edison Fivc's 43. The loss might have been a shock to good old P.D.L, students, but it did not faze our team. They had what it took to win a game. They knew it, and they proved it at the very next game. After a long hard battle with Palm Beach, the Ponce Five showed they could come out victors over the best of teams. We won that mighty battle 37 to 35. The nerves of our team were still re- laxed, when bingo! one, two, three games lost-just like that. The Beach took us At the tap of the page wc find in the first picture left to right: George Lane.

They couldn't stand it any longer, so they came hack to heat Jackson, our last game of the season, 42 to 37. With hope for a swell season in '4-8, we look to our MB squad. They won first place in the Gulfstream Conference game. Well, so long El Ponso, see you again soon. -FRANK BAKER 33 i at Q Zena, Zuma 0 RETURNING to swat the ole apple again for Ponce this year are several real pros. Top- ping this list are Billy Stephens, Kirk West- cott, Homer XVllliHHlS, Ray Pierce, Dave Pip- pinger, ,lack Keena, and Lawrence Blaylock. Heading our list for Hashy pitchers are Rob- ert Conrad, Vic Daey, Bob Prahl, and James Overstrcet. As usual the boys all think they are really hot stuff when they first show up, but after getting hopped in the head with the ball, letting some beauties get by, and fanning a few hundred tinies they calm down a little. Under Coach Mike Ruggles' supervision the boys are really going to town with base- ball this year. Starting off with catching flies, placing bunts, and burning 'em around the hases the team has shown real pep and enthusiasm. Upposite picture. left: Coach Ruggles is watching Robert Conrad wind up the pitchg lower left: Flip Rosen gives a safe signal to Kirk Westcott as Jack Keena bites the dust. Ponce Track Team, left to right: Bill Umphrey, Haley, John Gazlay, Frank Race, Leith Kent, Ed David Alter, Jack Stahl, Bill Thompson, Ray McEnany, Bobby Marx. ln the second week of training the boys were shown the true form of fanning by that prominent man of baseball-Flip Rosen. Poncels schedule for the year has just been completed as we go to press, and our tough- est competitors this season will be Edison, Redlands, and Miami Beach. One thing is certain, if Dacy, Conrad, and the rest of Ponceis curve twirlers do as well in these games as they arc doing now, we have no worries concerning the baseball Season, -AARON HERTZ o AT THE TIME the Cavaleon went to press the track team had had two time trials, one was at Moore Park, the other at Miami High School. The hoys did as well as expected considering the small amount of time they had had for training and practice. From these time trials we get a fair idea of just what the different hoys can do hest. Outstanding for thc dashes are Bob Marx, Bill Tompson, Ray Williams, and Claude John- son. ,lack Stahl shows promise for tl1e 100 yard dash, throwing the javelin, and pole vaulting. Richard Davdison also shows promise for the pole vault. .lohn Gazlay is good as a discus thrower. Over the hurdles we iind Leith Kent, David Alter, and Bohhy Marx in the lead. For the broad jump there are Bowman Hinckley, Ed Ingram, and Bohby Marx. This being the first year most of these hoys are out for track, it's going to take a lot of work to become good, however, if they show in the future as much improvement as they have in tl1e past, we have big hopes of walking away from thc Gulfstream conference with one of the cups. -FRANK BAKER Pictured below, left to right, back row: Coach Ruggles, Robert Conrad, Vic Dacy, Harry Geller, Billy Stephens, Dave McDonald, Dave Pippinger, Richard Kosel.

No, it's not soccer or kick ball! lt's one of the new games called speedball introduced by Mr. Fabian Hoffman, former United States Naval physical training officer. Mr. Hoffman, with Mr. J. C. Gramley, head of physical training, has arranged a very thor- ough program for his classes in order to give the boys a chance to play new games indoors 36 and outdoors. The object of these new games is to teach team play and co-ordination. Along with speedball, a few weeks were de- voted to playing touch football, basketball, track, volleyball, and softball. Another thing rated number one with the gym classes is tumbling. By gradually work- ing in more difficult stunts for the boys to try, Mr. Hoffman has seen to it that they don't strain their bodies. These difficult stunts include head springs, parallel bars, and tumbling on the mats. -AARON HERTZ Netters Get Ready Of the Ponce Tennis Team, we find pictured in the first row, left to right: Cap Turner, Dickie Rutledge.

Vlfhile their co-captains, Tommy Blakey and Gerald Monsalvatge, are working on a schedule with the different high schools in Greater Miami, the team is working hard every afternoon on the tennis courts improv- ing their game day by day. As a definite schedule is not available at present we cannot name the teams they will play. But come as they may, our team is ready to take them all. KEGLEBS TAKE 'l'Il0I'lIY o IT's THE HONEST TRUTH, E1 Ponso, the Ponce Bowling Team won first place in the league this year by winning 31 of the 36 games played. We did pretty well otherwise, too, having three of the five members of our team hold offices in the league. Erwin Strausburger and David Metzger were secre- taries while our own Chester Hunter was president. The highest average on the Ponce Aven- gers was held by Erwin Strausburgcr with 171. Following were David Metzger with 165 and Chester Hunter with 154. Frank Little held fourth place with 135. Bringing up tl1e rear was good old Burke Luitich with a nice 132. Ponce filled the honor seats at the banquet held at the end of the festivities when the trophies were awarded. -+FRANK BAKER Members of the Ponce howling team are: Erwin Strausburger and David Metzger standing: Burke Luitich and Frank Little kneeling.

If from last year or some other previous experience in boxing, they know the boxing training rules stick to them, work hard, and keep in con- dition, they may enter the Golden Glove Tournament. lf they come out well they may be sent to New York to compete with the nation's best.

These archers pictured here are only four of the many fine marksnlen here at Ponce. Look at that form-the proper stance for archers, that is. Archery teaches hand and eye coordination, and gives Cupid a little assistance, perhaps? Experience proves that there's nothing better to bring out competitive instinct than a fight for an inflated basketball. We take back that last statement in view of the after-school workout on the basket- ball courts demonstrated below. Spike it! Side out! These are the shouts you heard on the volleyball courts after school last October. On the right Mary Ann Batcheller smashes the ball across the net to Gayle Schwartz. Pull out the mats!

I just had to call you up to tell you all about the volleyball tournament held at Moore Park November 4. Nobody seemed to want the number 13, so as usual I took it. You should have seen the mess everyone was in. Managers Evelyn Fitzpatrick and Suzanne Hardin were so busy seeing to it that everyone had the right numbers that they forgot to give the score- keepers the right information. Judy McIntyre, captain of the A Team, told us, u0ur first game will be against the Edison Red Raiders. They beat usg then we had a chance to watch the B Team tackle the Edison B Team. Our team won! Wie then played Homestead and with the help of some spectacular plays by Barbara Bowyer and Trixie Fosgate, we won by an easy margin. The B Team played a winning game with Homestead. Jackson gave us our second defeat and put us out of the tourna- ment. Play-off Necessary ' Winning over Edison in the semi-finals, the B Team stood face to face with the fa- mous Miami High Stingarees, who gave them their first defeat. That made it necessary to play off another game which the Stingarees won. Wlhen the winning teams were announced, I was told that the A Team placed fourth and the B Team placed second.

The tremendous success of both those teams was due to the expert coaching by Cap- tains Carrel Power and Audrey Obarski. That's all there is to tell you, so I guess I7d better hang up. Good-bye for now. --PAULINE MARKS January 17, 1947 Dear E1 Ponso, 0 AMID SHOUTS of uShoot, Make that bas- ket, Block her,'7 and Upass it, our Ponce A and B Basketball teams fought for top honors in the annual basketball tournament held at Miami High yesterday. The first game, wl1icl1 we lost 11 to 6, was a smash-up against the Miami High Stin- garees. Turning the tables, our B Team beat the Miami High B Team 11 to 6. The A Team overpowered the Beach Ty- phoons 16 to 2 in a thrilling tangle. Follow- ing in the A Team's footsteps, the B Team also beat the Typhoons 16 to 2. The skull and cross bones of the Edison Red Raiders soon appeared over the Cava- liers and defeated us in the A game 14 to 2, but the .B Team heat the Raiders 9 to 6. A Team Out Of Running As the A Team had two defeats to their credit., they were officially out of the run- ning. The B Team still had a chance to win the cup by overpowering the Jackson Gcn- erals. Much to our dislrcrs and disappoint- ment thc Generals triumphed 14 to 7. Wfell, E1 Ponso, in the end the A Team tied with Miami High for third place and the B Team came in second. Every year Mrs. Huey of the Miami Beach Recreation Park gives an award of a small gold basketball to the girl who places the highest number of free shots in the basket. This year the award was won by Nancy Vann of Miami High who placed 20 out of 25 shots in the basket. Placing 19 out of 20 shots, was Doralys Arias of Ponce, who came in second. F rosh A Places Second At the freshmen tournament held here at Ponce, our A Team placed second, beating the Jackson Generals and the mighty Shen- andoah team by one point. Later on it was necessary to play Shenandoah again and this time we lost. Our other defeat was at the hands of Edison. The B Team came in third.

Governing Body 0 IMAGINE EL PONSO'S surprise when on December 9, 194-6, he discovered his first Student Day. This day, long the ambition of many a Ponce student, was one of the outstanding achievements of this year,s Student Council. Remember the day the freshmen were sent sprawling to retrieve their lids? The traditional Ponce dink had staged its first comeback since the war. Among the many services and duties of the Student Council, one of the more important is that of our hi-weekly assemblies. In an effort to acquaint our parents with the school, Student Council mem- bers served as guides during the P.T.A. open house held at the beginning of the year. . At this time visitors were priviledged to witness displays made by each The Ponce de Leon Student Council is registered with the Southern Associa- tion of Student Government and under the guidance of Mr. Micah Buggles is blazing the path to new and better things for the student body. department.

If you have a MBP average, you are eligible for approval by the faculty and the vote of the present members of the club. ln 1927 the Ponce chapter, then under the direction of Mrs. Pearl Davis and Mrs. Susan Archer, was the first of its kind in Florida to receive its charter. Today it is sponsored by Mrs. Edith Mason and holds a meeting once a month. A flaming torch and keystone, symbol of a National Honor Society member, stands for the outstanding qualities of character, leadership, service, and scholarship. Admittance into N. H.

' Uaew PERHAPS SOME of us have wondered who those girls are that we see helping teach- ers in a diversity of jobs. Well, to begin with, they are members of the Beta Club organized at Ponce in the spring of l946. Since it is a national service club, its members are chosen on the basis of de- pendability, service, and an average of at least L'C.'7 Nominees are selected by standing members and the faculty and then submitted for the vote of the club. Have you ever tried to play basketball when you were in doubt as to Who was on your team? Thatis what the girls' freshman basketball team would have done if it had not been for the effort of the Beta Club to provide them with the necessary pinneys. Over two hundred hours have been given by the Beta Club members toward helping the teachers. They've done such jobs as alphabetical arrangement of names, preparation of the grade books, typing, and grading papers. Witll Miss Ethlyn Massey as their spon- sor, the .Beta Club made plans to staff Mrs. Archer's and the finance offices. +MILDRED GARCIA 'ce HELLO, MOM.

To become a member it is necessary to file an applica- tion and be interviewed by the membership committee, the prime requirement is a sincere belief in the principles of the Hi-Y Club--clean spech, clean sports, clean scholar- ship, and clean living. If you're looking for an address, home room, or tele- phone number, youall find the correct one in that help- ful, time-saving Student Directory sold every year by the Hi-Y boys.

Busy Boys WE WONDER what El Ponso thought of his first contact with American music! It was at the Wheel Club assembly which presented Paul Lewis, band and introduced Mrs. Mason's songs for their first audition. These boys spent many Sundays collecting newspapers for the various drives as at right above, and it was the Wheel Club who provided a desti- tute family with a real Christmas. Can anyone forget the night of the Junior Winter Carnival! Undaunted by the rain of the previous night, the Wheel Club sponsored both the dart throwing and the drive the nail in the log booths. Here Pan-Americanism enters. Tying in the theme of this book with the Wheel Club, we find that they gave a party for University of Miami students from the South Americas. Under the guidance of Mrs. Herberta Leonardy and Mr. Micah Ruggles they have participated in the projects approved by the Rotary Club and held classes in parliamentary law. -MILDRED GARCIA EVERYONE has noticed the new benches around the campus!

On Key Club Sunday a church service was given in honor of all the International Key Clubs at the Country Club Christian Church. Having Mr. Fred Wilson and Mr. Willard Wave of the Kiwanis Club as sponsors, they planned a Mothers' Day tea and a boatride to be given at the end of the year. Believe it or not-the Key and Wheel Clubs planned a party together! ln the middle of the year the Key Club gave a Father and Son banquet at the San .luan Restaurant and were hosts at the Key Club Convention held at the Robert Clay Hotel in Miami. . ----MILDRED GARCIA Left to right, first row: Lanignn, Roberts.

When the Orientation Club sponsored a Christmas Carol contest among freshman home-rooms, we gave the school a sample of our vocal potentialities, and we all dug in to help the various war drives which were in full sway, completely drubbing the less diligent upper-classmen in the paper and clothing drives.

Twenty-four years is a long time in South Florida, and the surprising thing is that weve managed to retain our en- thusiasm for our job and yours.
