Riverside Polytechnic High School - Koala Yearbook (Riverside, CA)

John Little, a typical Sopho- more student, loaded down with Driver Education and Algebra books, cringes at the sight of a mighty senior coming down the stairs. Not another one! He ' s seen so many these past few days! But in the true Hello and Smile Day fashion, John manages a feeble greeting to this upperclassman. These traditional days at the begin- ning of the year gave every- one an excuse to get to know each other. Poly ' s Seams Bulged With Groping Thoots The assembly presented by the Sophomore class followed the theme Sketches in Twentieth Century Entertainment. One of the acts imitated a familiar T.V. show, but the audience got the biggest kick out ot the can-can girls.

Such Were the Sophomores I- The lowly Sophomores needed much help in their climb to higher levels. As Sophomore Advisors, Miss Bowers was always prepared to polish the Thoots and boost them up the ladder of success while Mr. Raymer finished off the hopeless cases with one quick blow of the hammer. Sophomore cheerleaders Shirley Ander- son, Janet McVey, and Pat Shelton developed the lung power of the Thoots and cheered the B teams on to victory. (The hose in the background has nothing to do with the idea of dousing their opponents.) The great day for Sophomores finally arrived, and they were officially welcomed into Poly ' s midst. The welcoming committee arrived in attire which would have scared any ordinary Sophomore class back into the Junior High schools, but they showed their courageous character by rising to receive the name Thoots . In case you ' re wondering, a Thoot is a rare type of Kuckamongan Kiwi going extinct due to excessive kubular koncentration. Get It? Got it! Good! ! 13
