Nautilus YYDito Marsh Hyde Van-rson Principal's Message The chimes of June, 1932 are ringing and Roosevelt High School closes her portals leaving behind her a joyously happy, successful year. The wheels of civilization are traveling over the highway of progress. Passing side by side with this progress has been Roosevelt High School. We have reached another milestone in our history. Our past year crowns Roosevelt with the finest of co-operation, with the best of loyalty to duty and respect. Through a constant effort she has been lifted to a place high in realms of service, and to a type of sportsmanship and fair play that is extraordinary. This beautiful school annual is certainly deserving of a warm place in your heart and plays a most important role in Roosevelt's cast of activities. May I express my hearty appreciation for the excellent piece of work done by our Chroniclers in bringing to us this treasure of memories of our activities during the year just passed. May your vacation be a most happy one and when our doors open again this fall, Roosevelt's welcoming atmosphere will await you. Miss Lydia Almquist Marshall B. Barker Miss Nell Bartlett E. E.

Looking backward we find we have forgotten the hardships, and remem- ber only the many happy hours we have spent together. Reminiscences of the past bring forth many delightful memories, and make us feel that we can be justly proud of our achievements. One memorable day in October, 1929, while we were mere sophomores, we felt the 'furge to take a prominent part in school activities, we were bubbling over with ideas and enthusiasm. Our first step was to organize. Cui' ardor, however, was momentarily quenched by lVlr. Gttois ultimatum that we must prove ourselves worthy of the responsibility before organizing as the class of '32. VVe set our brains to work to think of some project we might sponsor. Finally, we decided to accept the chal- lenge by sponsoring the athletic dances for the spring semester of 1930. From then on much of our time was devoted to making a success of these dances. The two big dances, f'May Days, Play Daysi' and April Showers Bring May Flowers were joyous affairs, and well repaid us for our efforts. In our junior year, the athletic dances gave way to senior high dances. At the request of the administration, we, the Juniors, took over the task of sponsoring these dances, in order to bring about a closer fellowship among the students of the Senior High. Five dances filled our year, and then as a culmination of our social program, we gave a dance in honor of our first June graduation class. Although the dances, our service to the school, demanded so much of our time, hardly any school organization or activity could be found which did not include the names of many members of our class on its roll. We were an up-and-coming bunch! At last our senior year-when dreams come true! The Senior Prom, teas, dances, and then-February graduation! This event took from us forty-seven of our members. Ties were broken, and two and one-half years of happy companionship came to an end. Time, however, flies quickly, and the rest of us, almost before we know it, will have passed the same mile-stone in June. But before we write Hfinisu to the chronicles, the class of '32 cannot help pausing to exult a little over its originality-a Sunrise Baccalaureate and a clever Senior Souve- nir Bulletin. On Commencement night, we, the fifth graduating class, will sing Roosevelt's first Alma Mater which was composed through our tireless efforts. YVC hope this will grow in the love of the students in the years to come. This history would be incomplete without some mention of the inspiration and guiding companionship of our sponsors, Miss Scott, Mrs. Sullivan, Miss Powelson, Mrs. Morrison, Miss Bartlett, and Mr. Franklin. The class owes much to their kindly interest and encouragement. For the glories of our Alma Mater' and for Ye Olde School Spirit, many busy but happy hours have been spent by the class, its ofhcers, and sponsors. Because of such ideal contacts, we hope to be, as a class, a little better, and as individuals, a little finer. lf we have accomplished this, our aim has been fulfilled, if we have accom- plished our aim, we are content. f'Auf lViedersehen ln 'l'wenly-One Nautilu Twenty-Two Senior Snaps C25 HUMIIIMIIYHNH M'WHl'1l Nl Nautilus Standing: Clemens, Murphy, E.

A. Otto Vacation over! A sound of the gong and Roosevelt's Student Body of some thir- teen hundred trekked back to the ranks. The hurried bustling of the students and an atmosphere filled with activities have become a daily occurrence with us. Our athletic teams gained losses and sustained victories on the gridiron, court, track and diamond. We are certainly proud of the fine sportsmanship displayed by our boys. Glad, are we, too, that a leveled field, turf, curbed track, and other im- provements will be Waiting to greet our athletes when they report for duty this coming school term. Thanks to our Student Body! Our year has certainly been crowned with well-spirited co-operation between the school and the P. T. A. How we helped them put over the Turkey Dinner and the big Carnival Dance! They were both grand successes! The Student Body deserves also a lot of thanks in working with the Music De- partment of our school. We bought over six hundred dollars worth of instruments for rental purposes. Then, our big inter-class Track Meet-thrills, noise, music, gasping moments, fiying colors were all there in a big way! The Seniors walked home with the banner and the Juniors cleaned the fish pond-what a day! 1931-32 marks another milestone for Roosevelt, and the names of Roy Clemens and Bill Hall march into the Hall of Fame, carrying with them emblems representing the finest of leadership as our Student Body Presidents. Well, our space is filled, but long shall we remember the gay days filled with athletic school contests, school plays, turkey dinners, carnivals, and School dances, we have enjoyed during this past term.

Junior Class FIRST SEMESTER OFFICERS SECOND SEMESTER Oakley Hunter President Oakley Hunter Robert Blau Vice-President Robert Blau Laurell Arnold Secretary-Treasurez Laurell Arnold Paris Thomas 1 Yell Leader Paris Thomas Thomas Boyd Sergeanl-at-Arms Thomas Boyd Sponsor-Miss Lucile Elder School is a sad, gloomy, and humdrum affair if one chooses to walk only in the shadows, but it is grand and glorious if one looks on the bright side of things. This, the Scribe tells us, is the opinion of the Junior Class. For the benefit of those students, commonly known as the Freshies,', and also for a group of uncivilized barbarians called Seniors,', Cthis term is used not because of merits earned, but because of the generosity of the teachersll, we wish to point out the great importance and signifi- cance of the Junior Class. lf Fate is kind, the members of said organization hope to graduate in 1933. However, before this tragic day arrives, many events will have taken place which will leave within every student a feeling of fond remembrance for the illustrious Juniors. During the past year, the Junior Class has had the pleasure of sponsoring for the Student Body, three most delightful dances. The most successful of these was the Chinese Garden Ballet. Several novelty dances were offered and unique prizes awarded, with John Militano acting as Master of Ceremonies. The success of this dance, we modestly admit, was due to the well-organized work of the class members. In the inter-class track meet, held in March, the Juniors came in a close second fonly a trivial difference of forty pointslj Due to certain reasons, such as bribing the timers, apple polishingf' and the like, the Seniors placed first. True to their ideals of sportsmanship, the Juniors cheerfully paid the penalty of the defeated by cleaning the fish-pond. When the Senior Play, K'The Patsyl' was presented, it was the Juniors who boosted the ticket sales to insure its success. But there's a reason ll' Our Prom and our graduation expenses for next year depended upon the profits thus derived! CRAFTY JUNIORS l 'fwcnty-Five Nautilus Scofield, Shields.

At last your wish has been fulfilled! Cast your eyes upon the memoirs of the Boys' Federation! This said organization is upheld by a very distinguished group-the Senior High boys. The members so far, have been very fortunate in regard to the type of entertain- ment presented. During the past year the Federation has enjoyed two style shows, given through the courtesy of Harry Coffee to show what the well dressed man will wear. This accounts for the immaculate appearance of our members Cdirty cords and no ties, for instancelj In the early part of March an event took place which will long be remembered- The Boys' Federation Dance, given in honor of our girl friends of the Girls' League. The auditorium was decorated in true spring fashion so as to satisfy that strange feeling that overcomes one during that season of the year. The committees in charge modestly admitted that it was one of the most outstanding social events of the year. Not long afterwards the Federation was invited by the Girls' League to partici- pate in a joint meeting. The speaker of the day being Miss lVlary Yost, dean of women of Stanford University, of course our presence added greatly to the prestige of the meeting as it always has and always will, forever and forever. I thank you! OAKLEY HUNTER. P. S.: I wish to state that this confession was forced from me through the famous third degree of the Nautilus Staff.

Membership in the Scholarship Society is an honor depending upon a high type of school work during the previous semester. A's give three points and B's one, toward the ten points necessary for membership. Two of these may be gained from extra-curricular activities such as athletics, dramatics, and debating. Those pupils who have earned membership for four semesters, one of which must be in the Senior year, become life members of the California Scholarship Federation. Those attaining life membership are given pins by the Student Body. They are also presented with a certificate, on graduation. The Chapter seal is placed on their diplomas and they are given college recommendations. A scholarship for college may also be earned. The activities of our organization have been varied but much of the time has been spent on conferences. The Twentieth District meeting was held here in November with a Reedley student acting as president, and Viola Toler as secretary. The business meeting and discussions of the morning were followed by a luncheon and program. ln the afternoon a dance was featured. ln lldarch the District lVleeting was held at Kerman with Jim Shipe as president. The delegates were impressed by the activities and privileges of the other chapters. The next important event, possibly the most important to all who attended, was the conference of the Central Section held in Santa Cruz on April ninth. Our delegates were entertained at the summer home of Geraldine Rodgers and reported an enjoyable, as well as a profitable, trip. '37 I just lacked one point.

The library had been moved into new quarters so it was in the nature of a house-warming. The new books, which had been received and catalogued during the summer were out on display, and you should have heard those teachers rave about them! lt is hoped to make this faculty tea or open house an annual affair. The club has been very active this year. Its members have undertaken a project not found in any other high school in Fresno county. They have been responsible for the pay collection of books which has been added to the library. This collection now contains about thirty volumes of late fiction suitable for use in the English classes for their outside reading. Meetings are held regularly every other iwonday in the library. At one of the meetings Miss Marsh gave the club a real inspiration in her talk on iWVhat Constitutes a Successful Club. At the meeting held during Childrens Book VVeek, Miss Doris Gates of the County Library, spoke on Good Books for Young People. At the close of this meeting refreshments were served by the committee of social affairs. In December the club put on a program for one of the regular assemblies. Pins of black and white enamel, the club colors, are now being worn by the members. Have you read your shelves? Twenty-Nine Nautilus First Row: Tliomas, Hunter.

A. Otto The lVitenagemote Club, which meets every other Tuesday evening fthe Consti- tution providing for special meetings when necessaryl, is one of the oldest organizations in the school. lt was first organized in March, 1930, through the efforts of a group of boys headed by LeRoy lVood. Since then it has grown in size and fame. There are now twenty-tive active members, carefully chosen from among that type of student interested in leadership. VVitenagemote, Council of VVise Men,,' is a parliamentary law organization. lts purpose is to instruct the members in the principles of parlia- mentary law, and to train them to conduct properly any Student organization. Dis- cussions on world-wide topics are held during the meetings. Mr. Otto is the instructor of parliamentary law, and thirty minutes of each meeting is devoted to its study and practice. An efiicient program committee has always insured a pleasing and interesting program. A pot luck supper at the last meeting, in honor of the club's second anniversary, brou ht to a close a most successful year for Witena emote. Amon the honored Q l , I g sf guests present were the Wltenagemote Alumni. The club, being inactive the first semester, accounts for the first semester's limited activities.

Social Affairs Beulah Hawkins Sponsor-Nliss Eleanor Evinger The Girls of the Parliamentary Law Club chose the name Boadicea for its organization, because of the womanly and queenly deeds of the ancient queen of Britain, who bore this proud name. She was a great leader of her people. The object of the club is to be joyous, interested, well poised individuals, well- versed in many subjects perhaps-but certainly courageous, open minded, resourceful with some initiative and fair judgment, socially minded and able to work with others. Every one present at the meetings answers roll call with a quotation from a famous California author. The girls have had training in parliamentary law, and every member is given a chance to be chairman of the meeting for parliamentary prac- tice. This establishes in the minds of the younger people the standards by which they are governed. The Parliamentary Law Club is dedicated, primarily to the study and application of parliamentary law and procedure, and, secondly, is designed as a forum for expres- sion of views and opinions, pertaining to topics of interest. Through this practice they are able to conduct with efficiency the offices to which they are elected in the school. Rising to a point of order, a point of personal privilege, moving to resolve into a committee of the whole, suffering through the trials and tribulations of the amendment to the amendment, occupies the practice time of these meetings. Sometimes real poli- cies and programs till the discussion time, and offer opportunities for parliamentary contests. Sometimes mock motions are placed before the body to be jumped on and pulled far out of their original meanings, as the embryo lady-legislators under their judicial chairmen try their intellectual prowess, and still remain Uwithin the law. After a successful year, this club hopes to have done its bit in establishing an interest in parliamentary law. The members hope to attract more Sophomore and Junior girls so that the club may help to train the League and Class Olfticers. There is a motion before the house!

Slaughter The Excalibur Club, which is the Junior Organization of the Fresno Knights of the Round Table, and Roosevelt's only boys' luncheon club, meets every Tuesday at high noon in the Assembly Hall. Under the very capable supervision of Mr. Otto and Mr. Slaughter they gorge themselves on Cafeteria dainties and discuss important issues. After the appetites of the respective members have been satisfied, a short busi- ness session is held, followed by a program, usually consisting of talks by various members. Primarily the aim of the club is Service,U and to that end they have undertaken several projects. At Christmas time the club co-operated with the Knights of the Round Table in supplying wood to needy families of our city. Members of the club served as ushers for l'Nothing but the Truth, and The Patsy. The club volunteered cars to help with the transportation to the Wasliington Bi-Centennial Pageant held at the Fresno High School Auditorium. They also offered their services to help bathe the china-ware after the Student Conference ban- quet, but in view of their tender QU care of the dishes at last year's Girls' Day, it was decided that such services would not be required! However, the Club did act as a reception committee on that occasion. The crowning success of the year was the Excalibur Dance held Thursday eve- ning, lVIarch third. The guests were members of the Senior Girls, Luncheon Club and their escortsg members of the Round Table and their wives, and alumni members of Excalibur. The auditorium was decorated as a Spring garden, and music was furnished by the Roosevelt Jazz Orchestra under the direction of Mr. Walsh. Mr. Slaughter served as master of ceremonies. So you see, the club is not just a nutritional class, but an organization really con- cerned with the betterment of the school!

It defines sophistication as the state of simplicity, or naturalnessg I'd rather be just me. Oh, Florence, it really isn't as bad as that! I've met a few sophisticated per- sons in my life, and they were really very charming. What is it? Simply the Senior Girls' Luncheon Club at one of the weekly meetings! This club originated from the 1931 Student Conference. Miss Marsh and Jeanada Hamilton worked on the plan and finally summoned fourteen girls whom they thought would be interested. The members now number twenty-five, a most congenial group. The club meets every Wednesday during the lunch hour with their sponsor, Miss Marsh. The meetings are called to order by the president, and then turned over to a chairman who takes charge of the program. A few people are assigned certain phases of the subject to be considered, and then the whole club takes part in a general dis- cussion. Some of the subjects that have been under discussion during the past year are: Cosmetics and Its Usesg The Ideal Companion for Life, Sophisticationg Culture, Proper Dress on All Occasions, Booksg Sororities in High School and College, Private Schools. Outside speakers were secured on two occasions. Dean Mary Yost from Stanford was a guest of the Luncheon Club in March. She recited several instances of college life, and told the girls what they might expect on entering college. The club first started with girls from several grades and met during different school periods. It was decided that the Club should be turned into a Luncheon Club and membership be limited to Senior girls.

Every true Girl Reserve uses the blue triangle to picture the right way of living. The weekly meetings of the Senior High Girl Reserves have been intensely inter- esting this year. In a series of service meetings scrap-books were made to send to the County Hospital. The two initiations are important events on the Girl Reserves' calendar. The informal initiation in the afternoon, is followed by a delicious dinner and a candle- lighting service in the evening. At the annual mid-winter conference held in Porterville, one of the five delegates, Loraine Large, was elected president of all San Joaquin Valley Girl Reserves. The Sesame Girl Reserves has twenty-six members from the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. The Service work this year has been to serve others less fortunate than themselves. At Christmas time the club prepared and sent a big box to a family in the country. They also gave appropriate gifts to the children at the Nutritional Home, Valentine's Day and at Easter. The club also has many social activities. The girls often swim and have pot-luck suppers at the Y. W. C. A. Each year in May a joint Father and Daughter banquet is given by all the Girl Reserve Clubs in the city. Songs, pep, yells, and good food help make it a successful event. These girls are ever ready to assist when needed.

A river full of water, count- less rocks, a big council fire, some nifty entertainment, lots of eats! Where that man, Doug Hubbard, stores all his food, is a mystery! As Christmas was approaching, several baskets of food were solicited and dis- tributed to needy families. Lee Sawyer was chief organizer and executive. That memorable date, February 12th, soon rolled around bringing the celebration of the twenty-second anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America. Entertainment, eats, and good fellowship were in abundance. just ask Johnny Otto how well his Mom can make Spanish beans! Thank you, Mothers and Dads, for your splendid co-operation! Hereis Spring and the big test-passing season is on! Thirty-five tests were passed in one week-congratulations, fellows! Paris Thomas, Bill Otto, and Adellon Hanson set a fast pace for some of the younger fellows. Hauling the logs to Fresno for our log cabin, digging the cellar, laying the founda- tion and putting up the building certainly kept the fellows on the jump!

Snider, R. A. Hendricks Troop 17 has grown considerably since September, l93l-in ambition and pro- gress, as well as in numbers. The troop firmly believes that only a test-passing group of Scouts are really Scouts. As a result the Patrols have begun to take test-hikes, while the entire troop has hiked to Fresno Beach when the weather permitted. The almost weekly hikes of this troop into the mountains last fall came nearly being a council-wide record. Outdoor cam fire meetin fs seem to be a favorite on re fular meetin nights, being Q p a A o . E n g 1 occasions for developing the out in SCOTJTIIIFQ as well as the organized play period. The chief project in which Troop 17 Scouts are engaged is the construction of a log cabin on the Roosevelt school grounds. The logs were felled on the Cascade Ranch road above Northfork in Sierra National Forest. Hauling rough logs to Fresno and converting them into a cabin is no small task, but it is a decidedly worthwhile one. The P. T. A. sponsors this particular troop. ln token of appreciation, the Scouts are only too glad to serve as cloak and hat checkers, and as telephone messengers at various P. T. A. events.

The regular meetings have reflected the spirit of co-operation and interest by excellent attendance and a fine social spirit. The membership has increased forty-two per cent.

We practiced for weeks for these occasions and they were always such a success. Another annual event in which we feature is the Christmas Pageant. This year we were well represented in the Washington Pageant and the Roosevelt Revue. We sang again for the Kiwanis this spring. Fun, wasn't it? And, oh, those new uniforms! Aren't they lovely?

Dramatics Club Each year Mr. Hyde chooses, from the seniors who have passed the English Com- position test, a limited number of students to compose his Dramatics class. The class studies dramatics appreciation as well as drama in practice. One of the class projects was to collect and learn poems appropriate for grades from one to twelve. Some of these poems were given for outside engagements, the P. T. A. carnival and the Scholarship Federation meeting. The greatest stunt of the year in which everyone in the class enthusiastically par- ticipated was the ice cream feed, Five gallons of ice cream and seven cakes did a 'ivanishing act. In April a play contest was held. Nearly every member of the class was cast in one of the four one-act comedies, under student direction. The play judged as the best was given for outside engagements.

Would you like a glimpse of a Stagecraft class? The play to be staged is read to the class: the stage is planned, the students are divided into groups, each having a special part for its responsibility. The girls do most of the designing and painting, the boys, the building and construction work, then we all work together on setting up stages. This gives us a feeling for color and the balance of furniture and other objects on the stage. We learn, too, how different lights change colors, and which ones give certain effects, as, for example, the ghastly grey green, which was used for the prison atmosphere in The Valiant. Stagecraft is made up mostly of Seniors, with a few Juniors to carry on in the next year's work. We were handicapped this last fall by lack of experienced people. Stagecraft is one of the most popular courses in the school. We may appear to be wandering around the halls as privileged characters. Not so, by any means, for we are on our own only so long as we are trustworthy. True is the old saying You get out of a project, just what you put in it. 'fBut what about the false fronts you put up!

Review of Revues CWith apology to Review of Reviewsnl The year 1931 closed the third annual presentation of the Revue, an all-school production which has developed from a rather mediocre program of stunts by Home Room groups in 1929 to a gloriously finished 1'Revue of Songs in 1931. The 1929 Revue blazed the trail for the success of future years. The 1930 Revue owes much to the clever way in which Mrs. Sullivan adapted an Irish Fantasy, Skaters, and Cake Walkers to the general theme based on the old legend of the Pied Piper of Hamlin. Without doubt the crowning achievement came in 1931 with a cast of one hundred sixty-two players who gave to their delighted audiences seven clever and original acts. Juanita Davis and Ted Garrison appeared before each stunt in quaint costume of Jack and Jill, singing little choruses of acts to follow. Color, comedy and song were cleverly woven into a fantastic Circus Act pictured above, featuring clowns old and modern, tumbling and dancing to earn their applause. There were Raggedy Anne and Sandy Andy, Bashful Dan and Giggling Anne, and dainty Pierrette, high on a trapeze, with her Pierrot, Jack Morgan, singing to her the lovely theme song Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams. Gther prominent acts were Walking My Baby Back Home and Whistling in the Dark, featuring the Glee Clubs in romantic lights and shadows. The Darkies who appeared in a minor act of 1929 Revue, and in the well- known cake-walk of 1930, brought such favor in 1931 that their act was used as the nucleus of the George Washington Bi-Centennial Pageant, February 22, 1932. The Ensemble with its gorgeous costumes and colorful settings will linger long in our memories. Adios-Revue l Forty-Six Nautilus Seated: Segrcss, Hurd, Starkel, Painter, Clark, Fleming, Hall, Standing, Monck, Lindley, Otto, Nothing But The Truth ALL SCHOOL PLAY McPherson. A grand cast, an able director and a delightfully humorous plot made James Montgomery's play Nothing But the Truthl' the most talked of play in town. The play was directed by Mr. Hyde, and the cast runs as follows: Bob Ben- nett, Bill Hallg E. M. Ralston, Mel Starkelg Dick Donnelly, Bob Segressg Clarence Van Dusen, Lee Clark, Bishop Doran, Bill Ottog Gwendolyn Ralston, Lucile Flem- ing, Mrs. E. M. Ralston, Melba Painter, Ethel Clark, Edith Hurd, Mabel Jackson, Edna Monckg Sabel Jackson, Lois Lindley, and Martha, Fern McPherson, who also acted as prompter. Bill Hall was obliged to double ten thousand dollars for his Hancee, Lucile Fleming. To do this, he bet his business associates, Bob Segress, Mel Starkel, and Lee Clark ten thousand dollars he could tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth for twenty-four hours. And then the trouble began! Embarrassing situ- ations galore almost convinced Bill that little white lies weren't so monstrous, after all. Two snappily dressed chorus girls, played by Edna Monck and Lois Lindley, who couldnyt under any condition be described as slow, caused trouble between Mr. and Mrs. Ralston, namely, Mel Starkel and Melba Painter. Bishop Doran, played by Bill Qtto, calculating financier, hiding under the cloak of ignorance of business, was a scream in more ways than one! Dumb? He wasn't so dumb! He got his seven hundred dollars! Allis well that ends well, and Bob Bennett won his bet, thereby doubling Gwendolyn Roberts' money. Mr. and Mrs. Ralston finally got over their misunder- standing and they all lived happily ever after. After all, that's a nice way to live, isn't it? If you think itls easy, try it!

Christmas Pageant This year as the Christmas tide drew near, over fifty Roosevelt students partic- ipated in Van Dyke's superb dramatization of his story, The Other Wise Man. The Pageant Committee composed of Mr. Walsh as chairman, Mrs. Turner, Mr. Young, and Mr. Otto as ex-officio member, chose Van Dyke's play because of its colorful pageantry and glorious teaching. Artaban, The Other Wise Man, was played by Stuart lVIcKelveyg the four readers were Ethel Scofield, Mildred McLaughlin, Eleanor Caldwell, and Evelyn Manderville. The other speaking parts were portrayed by Jack Walton, John Gomas, Oakley Hunter, Ed Stern, Boyd Beard, Milton Chatal- bash, John Otto, John Militano, Grace Roberts, and Edith Page. It was directed by Miss Bernice Struthers. This play is beautiful in the thought which it brings before us-the idea that God cannot be purchased for jewels, money, or extravagant gifts but that He comes to us, only through the deeds we do, the thoughts we have and the love we hold for Him. Never will those Words of the old and bent Artaban be erased from our memory. Never shall we forget the white-haired figure kneeling before his Maker after years of Weary searching, listening to the Voice say: Verily, I say, unto thee, inasmuch as thou hast done it unto one of the least of these, my brethren, thou hast done it unto me. Artaban answers, At last I have found Thee, O my King!

Senior Play- The Patsy The Patsy, written by Mary Conners, is classed as the most popular high school play in the United States. In the minds of the Class of '32, it isthe best senior play ever produced by a cast of Roosevelt students under the direction of Mr. Hyde. Full houses greeted the players on three successive nights. Patricia Harrington, sparkling, gay, witty, and naive was played by Ethel Sco- field. She crept into the heart of everyone, and offset the warped love of the mother and sister, by her splendid acting. Ray Newsom QPop Harringtonl as Patsy's father and champion, gave to us what is familiarly known as a star performance. The famous worm turned and the hen-pecked husband turned into a real man. Ray's interpretation of the part made us all want to be his friends. The self-pitying wife, played exceptionally well by Ethel Hamilton, explained why married men leave home. Grace Harrington's part, capably portrayed by Lois Lindley, was a real picture of like mother, like daughter. The parts of Grace and Mrs. Harrington were distinctly not parts to make one love them, and the audience gasped at their catty remarks and outbursts of temper. Wlien Tony Anderson fMarvin Murpheyfj appeared on the stage, many a fem- inine heart went 'ipit-a-pat, for Marviii did make a handsome and lovable hero! Billy Caldwell, Grace's hance, played by Bill Hall, was admired by all-especially the girls. lf it hadn't been for the minor parts, some striking humor would not have been evident. Mr. Oililaherty QVernon Hopel was one of the factors that helped Patsy to win Tony. ln the same way, Sadie Buchanan QlVlarjorie Howard, and lllary CGertrude Cohanl helped Grace to realize that it was Billy Caldwell she wanted and not Tony. Humor was added by the appearance of Trip Busty QBill Ottoj as the taxi driver. Oh, that we all might have been in this cast, still: All the world's a stage, but most of us are only stage hands. -and There's no use crying over spilt milk because therc's enough water in it already l Forty-Nine Nautilus l i ,....t.., or-mu, nuuper, uomas, Merino, Jorgensen Hamilton NICPllQI'SOIl Vfimfm Qtern Ieit lx Wtt' , ,. . ,i. .,t , J Y1i'l'GI'Qf.ll!lgI Crowell, Jidwards. Washington Pageant The part Roosevelt High School played in the city-wide celebration commemo- rating the two-hundredth birthday of George Washington, consisted of two main episodes in the Washington Pageant, presented at Fresno High School on February 22nd, and several musical numbers between the various episodes. The orchestra which furnished the music for the entire performance was also from Roosevelt. The first episode in which the Roosevelt students participated was the plantation scene in which we saw crooning mammies, mischievous pickaninnies, and lazy darky men. We caught a glimpse of the darky quarters at sundown when the lazy droning of the bees had been replaced by the low swinging melodies of a guitar and a violin. The other scene depicts the home life of George Washington with Martha and her two children at Mt. Vernon, gay and laughing guests arriving to wish George Washington a happy birthday. The curtain closed with the measured steps of the stately minuet. May Music Festival For many years it was a custom in Fresno County to hold Music Contests between the Various high schools, in which all the different musical groups competed in a selected program. As time went on, a certain amount of dissatisfaction and loss of interest led to a change. ln 1930, Fresno City secondary schools united in a Festival of Music at the Civic Auditorium. This was so much more enjoyable than the contest that in 1931, Fresno County also abandoned the contest, and held a May Festival on two successive Sunday afternoons at Roeding Park, with a tremendous crowd in attendance. One striking feature of these concerts was the fact that the groups which performed together had never had a general rehearsal, but sang or played each number with a different director, who had never seen most of the group before. The results were so satisfac- tory that the May Festival was repeated in 1932, with every prospect of it becoming an annual affair. Fifty Nautilus First Row: Dawson, Melton. Batt, L.

The Roosevelt Newsl' is published bi-weekly by the Journalism Class. The staff includes: News Editor, Advertising Manager, Editorial Manager, Circulation Manager, Sports Editor, and a goodly list of reporters. Witli the splendid instruc- tion of their able sponsor, Miss Eleanor Evinger, the class succeeds in 'inosing out the smallest morsel of news round and about Roosevelt. Go-getting for ads is perhaps the most difficult accomplishment a journalist must achieve, but when once the needed number of inches are procured, the class visibly sighs with relief. There's no sleeping on the staff. Every minute oneys eyes and ears must be alert for news, and woe be to the person who fails to turn in a news story to his editor! And oh! the feverish haste with which everyone works just before the paper is published! Editors battle with the length of stories while the paper is being made up, and the last minute news that jumps up unexpectedly, brings grey hair and wrinkles to the Staff. The Roosevelt News plays an important part in Roosevelt school life. Through its editorials, school problems are brought to the attention in such a way as to be most interesting and valuable to the students. The features and columns are the pride of Roosevelt News. Not only do they prove to be entertaining reading, but they also tell just what is going on in the school. The athletic news of the Roosevelt Newsl' is invaluable to the Roosevelt Sports fan, as stories of all games are published in detail.

Debating Team For the first time in Roosevelt's history a debate squad was trained. There were nine in the final varsity squad. The series of four dual debates in the county league were with Coalinga, Madera, Reedley and Lemoore. The question for debate was Resolved, That State Medicine Should Be Establishedf' The affirmative was upheld by Agnes Tatarian and Mildred McLaughlin, Ruth Batt, Ethel Scofield, and Wilma Gordon. Grace Roberts, Lucile Fleming, Stuart McKelvey and John Silva composed the negative team. Miss Evinger coached the speakers. The second squad won both dual debates from Fresno High. The teams, both negative and affirmative, were coached by Miss Struthers on the question Resolved, The Several States Should Adopt Unemployment Insurance. The victorious affirm- ative team was Gene Benham and Jim Shipe. The negative team that defeated Fresno High was Lowell Firstenberger and Marshall Fiese. The same team debated Bakers- field on the same question, with Oakley Hunter replacing Gene Benham. Awards Grace Roberts, Agnes Tatarian, John Silva, Ruth Batt, Mildred McLaughlin, and Lucile Fleming won debaters' pins, and an additional pearl was given Agnes Tatarian and Grace Roberts. Stuart McKelvey received two pearls for his pin that he won in 1931. Oratory The Oratorical Contest which was held March 28, 1932, in our auditorium was a preliminary to the great international contest. Those who spoke were Oakley Hun- ter, Marshall Fiese, Dorothy Bibler, Leslie Joynes, Ethel Naman, Jim Shipe, Ethel Scofield, and Phyllis Longtin. Oakley Hunter took first place and Marshall Fiese second, winning prizes of ten and five dollars respectively. A contest among the repre- sentatives of the city schools took place at Fresno High School on April fifteenth. Ethel Naman was given first place and Dorothy Bibler second place in a contest to decide who should give a Washington Memorial speech during Public Schools Week.

Student Conference Am I an 5'ldeal Boy or Girl?', This was one of the questions seriously and earn- estly discussed during the Student Conference, held at Roosevelt, Saturday, April 2, 1932. The day was planned by a committee of three: Jeanada Hamilton, John Mili- tano, and Claire Garrett, under the supervision of Mr. Otto, Miss Marsh, and the faculty. Our visitors were greeted by a large reception committee who assisted them in registering. Showing them around the building occupied the few minutes that remained before the Devotional. The theme of the Conference, 'fKnow Thyself, was explained through the pro- gram of the Devotional. Following the Devotional, the Conference adjourned to various rooms about the building for group discussion on such topics as: Choosing a Life Companion, The Ideal Boy or Girlg Race Prejudice and Moral Standards of the Twentieth Century Youth. The Assembly Hall was 'fpresto-changed into a delightful lunch room by the Girls' League, who also served beverages to our guests. A short entertainment was featured by our own students. Our guests had a real treat in seeing our Senior play, The Patsyf' The per- formance was one of the best ever featured at Roosevelt during its play history. At 4:30 the Conference gathered in the Assembly Hall to listen to the reports of the various committees. A brief summary of all the discussions was given by a chosen chairman. The banquet, planned to the last minute, followed the Committee reports. The speaker of the evening was Dr. Papazian, of the Armenian Congregational Church. His address followed a program of vocal, orchestra, and dancing numbers. The banquet concluded the successful day, leaving our guests looking forward with great joy to our next Student Conference.

Yet we finished in only third place, having been defeated by both Fresno High and Fresno Tech. Opening the season, the Rough Riders were held to a 7 to 7 tie by the Hanford High School team in a practice game. The Rough Riders were apparently off form in this encounter, as it was the Hrst of the season. Taking Taft next in stride, the Rough Riders bowed to the Valley champions of the year before, after a bitter fight, by a score of 13 to 0. HEXD Colton Enw xmas . . I 1 Fresno State's Frosh team was our first victim. The game was won after a hard struggle by a 7 to 0 score. This was the first victory of our Ugallopin' Rough Riders and it was, likewise, the Frosh's first defeat. The stage was all set for the Nbig gameu of the season, the one in which Fresno High Warriors were our opponents. Roosevelt was favored by two touchdowns, but sad to relate, 'fthe dope was just reversed. Fresno High won by a 14 to O score, which gave her the chance to cop the valley hunting this year. After this disaster, the Rough Riders got down to serious business and defeated Reedley, Selma, and Fresno Tech in the order named. These wins put the Rough Riders in a tie for second place with Edison Tech, but the Tigers won out in the race for that position by defeating the Rough Riders in a thrilling game by an 8 to 7 score. Head Coach Edwards has charge of the team, ably assisted by Russ White and Leo Weiland. Next year the varsity will be greatly handicapped by the loss of several of this year's regulars, but since several likely lightweight stars are going to graduate to the heavyweights, we may rightfully point to a fairly successful season.

Quite an impressive start! Reedley was the next team to face the Rough Riderlettes. Heralded as an undefeated team, the Pi- rates came to Fresno, but were soundly trounced by the Roosevelt babes by a 40 to O score. Some of our boys were just having a little fall,' training for , track that day! This is especially true of Paul Alli- 1 son, who starred by making two long runs for touch- downs after Catching punts. Coxon Mom-zuousi-1 The next game on tap for the Rough Riderlettes was the 'flittle big game of the year with Fresno High School, our bitter-sweet rivals, whom we beat, 7 to 0. A long pass by Big Toes Leguina to Art Shirley resulted in the score. Roosevelt fans have seldom seen such a beautiful pass. Just as everything seemed to point toward a championship, the boys traveled down to Selma, cocky and confident, and were Hbowledi' over by a 20 to 0 score. The less said about this game, the better! In the next game the Rough Riderlettes barely nosed out Kingsburg, 7 to 0. Le- guina, Roosevelt quarter, after having passed several times, finally succeeded in making a completed pass to Avedesian which resulted in a touchdown. Edison Tech was no match for the Rough Riderlettes in the next game. Roose- velt wound up with a 27 to 0 score. It was just another 'ltrack meetli' In their last game of the season, the Rough Riderlettes found themselves face to face with the Wolfcubs of Fresno Tech. Tech wasn't rated as a very strong team, but they put up the fight of their lives in this game, losing only by the slim margin of one touchdown, 7 to 0. In their second practice game of the season, the Rough Riderlettes held the strong Taft team, who were runners-up for the valley crown, to a 0 to 0 tie. The season was the most successful since lightweight football was organized. U' First Row: Kazato, Negus, Trower, Berberian, Barger, Gilham, Clark, Hensleyg Second Row: Otto, Falrburn, Gordon.

Fifty-Seven Nautilus l Varsity Basketball Roosevelt completed the most successful basketball season in the history of the school this year although they did not win the championship of the league. Although they would have liked to win the Ubunt- ing, they have the satisfaction of saying that they were as good as any team in the league. This is proved by the fact that they beat every team in their division, including Fresno High, who came out as valley cham- pions at the end of the season by defeating Porterville 25 to 17. 1 . Starting the season off the Rough Riders did not get going in any of their practice games, losing nearly all of them. However, in the first league game of the season they bowled over Fresno Tech by a 17 to 13 score. Spud Murphey flashy Rough Rider forward dazzled the Wolfpack by his uncanny shooting in this game and rung up ten points to his credit. Entering the second game, the Rough Riders were favored to beat the Edison Tech team, but were nosed out by a 22 to 19 score. Fresno High completely outfoxed our team in the next game by rendering the Rough Riders a 31 to 12 whipping. In their next game, though, the Rough Riders woke up and beat Edison Tech 25 to 21. The next game was with the Fresno Tech Wolves, which we lost by a 27 to 16 score. Sweet revenge for the Wolves! In the final game of the season, we had our big moment and beat Fresno High in an extra period of play by a 27 to 25 score. Bill Hall distinguished himself in this game by scoring all of our points which we made in the extra period of play. The most important factor of the game, however, is the fact that this was the first basket- ball game that our team ever won over Fresno High. Much credit should be given to Leo Weiland, our coach, as it was he who built up the team's spirit to great heights, thereby making our team the most feared of any in the league.

MIDDLEWEIGI-IT BASKETBALL Although our season,s record was not very impressive, our B Class basketball team members, coached by Johnny Moreliouse, nevertheless, gained lots of experience and learned many things they never knew before about basketball. The only league game they won during the season was the second Fresno Tech game which they won by a lop-sided score of 37 to 19. In the last game of the season they were barely nosed out by Fresno High, cham- pions of the league, by a score of 16 to 14. In other games, the smaller Rough Riders didnlt fare as well, but their opponents were constantly aware of the fact that they were in for a battle. Off on a bad season that apparently wasn't even going to net a win, the Hpeanutsu pulled the cat out of the bag and surprised everybody by defeating the Fresno High Papooses in a thrilling game by a 13 to 12 score. You couldn't ask for a better climax. Head Coach Logan Edwards' boys did well, despite the fact that they were handi- capped by the lack of a gym, as all of the games that they lost were won by the other team by only a slim margin.

Fifty-Nine Nautilus Track The Varsity track squad at Roosevelt is completing the most successful season in the history of the school. Although the season is not yet over, the Rough Riders, i coached by diminutive Johnny Morehouse, have won both the city and county titles. In the city meet the Rough Riders galloped off with 86 points to their credit while their nearest competitors, Fresno High, amassed but 43. Edison Tech finished third with 21 points, while the other city school, Fresno Tech, fin- ished fourth. In the county meet the Rough Riders made a total of 43 points, 33 of which were made by second, third, and fourth places. Only two firsts were chalked up by Dave Morehousesis men -Captain Frank Beller's win in the loxv hurdles, and Willard Suttenls six-foot leap in the high jump. In the Valley meet the Rough Riders placed fourth, a quarter of a point behind Bakersfield. The meet was won by Hanford with a total of 31 points. Selma was second with 24-5 Bakersfield third with ZZMH and Roosevelt fourth with 22. Han- ford's points came mainly from second and third place men. Although not a man of theirs placed first, they made eleven points in the sprints alone. Their crack relay team Won in the record-breaking time of l:3l.7 seconds, to mark up their only first place. - Roosevelt made eight points in the hurdles through the efforts of Captain Beller and Clemens. Silva placed in the 440 yard-run which was won by lVIorey of Visalia in the fast time of 50.4 seconds. Willard Sutten placed third in the high jump and fourth in the broad jump, while Louie Boyd Won the only first place for Roosevelt in the football throw by tossing it 203 feet, IOM inches. The Roosevelt relay team placed third, thereby finishing the scoring for a day. All in all, the team has had a very successful year. John David lllorehouse, the coach, is largely responsible for the wonderful showing of the team.

They can, however, point to a fairly successful year as they both placed second in the city meet. ln Class B the Rough Riders had one consistent man in the person of Vernon Dwelle. He won first place in the discus in the city meet and placed second in the county, finishing behind Edgar Dunn of Kingsburg, who broke the county record in the event. The only team that beat them in the city meet was Fresno High, one of the strongest in the county. Edison Tech's great lightweight team, county champions this year, beat out the C class team for the city meet championship. However, a few Roosevelt boys were outstanding in the meet. They were Weiser, Bernhauer, and Cwens. VVeiser broke the city meet high jump record by five inches and also won the county high jump event. Bernhauer placed behind him in the city and placed fourth in the county. Owens won the discus in the city and placed second in the county in the football throw. Coach John David Moreliouse coached both the B and C class teams as well as the Varsity and much of the credit is due to him. First Row: Ninnis, Goto, lVeiser, Bernhauer, V.0wen, Allor, Masters, G.

Sixty-One Nautilus s. l 'l U U Varsity Baseball Roosevelt's Varsity baseball team captured Divi- sion One title this year by defeating the Fresno High team by a 6 to 4 score in ten innings in the play-off game. This game was necessary due to the tie that existed between the two teams at the end of the regu- ' lar season. Starting the season with a bang, Coach Edward's men trounced the Washington Union team by a 13 to 3 score at Easton. Paul Allison starred in this game with his effective hurling. In their next game the Rough Riders ploughed HEAD COACH EDWARDS through the Fresno Tech team and won by a 7 to 3 score. This was a hotly contested game but, finally, the Rough Rider strength began to show and, little by little, they wore their opponents out. Fresno High's belated rallies in the eighth and ninth innings nearly overcame the Rough Riders, who won the game, 11 to 8. Until the seventh inning Paul Allison was not even nicked for a hit, but in the eigth and ninth innings he was not so fortunate. Fresno Tech surprised everybody in the next game by nosing out the Rough Riders, 4 to 3. Inability to hit in the pinches cost Roosevelt this defeat. The Rough Riders were defeated in their next game, losing 9 to 8 to Fresno High, throwing the league into a three-way tie. Going into their next game, the Rough Riders faced elimination if they lost. Realizing this, Paul Allison hurled a perfect no-hit, no-run game. Roosevelt needless to say, won 7 to 0. This game finished the league season, but the tie that existed made necessary the playoff game, with Fresno High. Roosevelt defeated Reedley 13-0 in the semi-final county play-off for the cham- pionship, but dropped a close game to Tranquillity, losing the county title. Much credit is due Coach Logan Edwards for his wonderful team this year, as it was he that guided the team so successfully.

Nautilus Baseball Roosevelt started on a new project this year by having two baseball teams in the county league race. The second team played in the fifth division of the league and, considered as a new organization, finished fairly well. Starting the season off right, the Rough Riders trounced Fresno High 9 to 6, behind Werl Owenls effective hurling. What a start! Caruthers beat out the Roosevelt team in the next start in a thrilling game by a 6 to 5 score in ten in- nings. Caruther fans have seldom seen such a game. COACII w111'r1c Edison Tech, who walked off with the title, won the next game by an ll to 2 score. Too much power in the bats of the Tigers caused this defeat. Coalinga, 55 Roosevelt, 2-that is how the score board read after the next league game. Although the Rough Riders lost the game, they put up a valiant fight, which the Coalingans will long remember. Winding up their season, the Rough Riders gave the story a happy ending and won from Fresno Tech's team 9 to 3. Marion Alleruzo showed his ware that day and the Fresno Tech batsmen were not able to see much more than just that! Al- though the team did not do so well from a winning standpoint, they gained much valuable experience. Russell White coached the team until his transfer to Longfellow, and then Coach Edwards took up the reins. The plan of two teams from the school, entered in the county league, should arouse more enthusiasm among the younger boys. Many of the present members should be valuable additions to the Varsity next fall. , .

Tennis One of the unusual features of Roosevelt High School is a mixed tennis team coached by one of our new teachers, Mr. Leo Weiland, who is fresh from Fresno State College. Dean Patterson, boys' singles player on the team, and our star player, proved his worth by carrying away the silver trophy offered by the Fresno Bee at the fall tourna- ment in 1931. Dean is a 'fwhizf' and vve,re certainly expecting big things from him. Lois Lindley, better known as lnset,', plays girls' singles. The mixed double team consists of two modest, quiet and reserved persons-Bill Hall and Dorothy Eldredl Shirley Guhm and Janet Allyn play girls' doubles. Janet is also trophy winner and has a head start on the class, as her loving cup was Won in elementary school. Benjy Americanian and James Dale uphold the boys' doubles team. We expect them to win honors as well as women's hearts. Wouldn't the twins, Jimmie and Allen, make a Hcuteu team? Not all of our talent is used in the team, so class and interscholastic practice tour- naments are held to give everyone a chance to play as Well as learn the game. A team must have a manager and the best we could do was Jeanada Hamilton, with Woodrowv Roberts as assistant! Sarcasml Tennis is the game of games for everyone-fat or thin, young or old. It makes no difference what kind of a shape you're in, you can still play tennis. Oh, say, by the way, have you seen our father of coaches-Logan Edwards and his girlish figure together with Gertrude UTrudy,' Cohan tripping merrily around the court in an exciting game of ping pong? lt's a sight worth seeing-in fact, you shouldn't miss it.

The girls hold this position by election, from girls of all grades. Squad Leaders assume a great responsibility and must be girls of great dependability. Their duty is to take the attendance, report the scores of the intra- mural games, and help in the upkeep of the athletic responsibility. VVithout them the Physical Education classes would be diflicult to manage. The girls, not competing with other schools and still wanting to earn a much prized R , worked out a point system in order to make this a possibility. Points are earned by being team captains, squad leaders, attendance monitors, or towel checkersg also by observing health rules, showing good sportsmanship, and by playing on teams of the major sports in the intramural program. Each girl must have at least 700 points before she can earn her award. Checking points and keeping records of all activities requires careful and system- atic work on the part of the Physical Education instructors and girls. A record card is kept for each girl, and points are recorded after completion of each major sport. Sixty-Five Nautilus Girls' Basketball MRS. TURNER Basketball, among the girls, is one of the most important games during their high school career. It is a game where ability comes before strength, this gives the small girl as much of a chance to compete as the larger. The girls' basketball teams are not decided upon as the boys' teams are. The boys are chosen according to their ability in the game, their weight and eligibility. The girls elect a dependable person for their captain and then the captains choose their own teams. The physical education instructor, Mrs. Turner, then coaches the teams carefully and patiently until she feels they are ready to compete with one another. The champion team of each period plays to decide the winner of the school. Christine Clark's seventh period basketball team, the Black Pirates, won the championship for this year against Teddy Platsis's team, The Fighting Irish. This game for championship was an exciting and fast battle on both sides. The forwards for the Black Pirates were: Dorothy Bibler and Grace Robertsg the guards, Francina Pedlebrodie and Helen Lindquist, Elizabeth Thompson played running center, Christine Clark, jumping center. The subs were, Chestine Clarke, Frances Dawson, and Barbara Mo1'rison. i , , W-.. .... , --....., -a..,c.., -..,...,-,.., ..-.....-... Sixty-Six Nautilus Hockey This has been the first year of intramural Hockey competition in the history of Roosevelt. lVIuch enthu- siasm and spirit was shown by the teams. Fine team work and good technique was shown throughout the games. It was hard to decide during the season which team would win the school championship, as several tie games were played and all the game scores were very close. There were eight teams enteredg one hundred five , girls took part in the twenty-two games which were played. The captains were: Lorena Richardson, Dorothy Winters, Kathryn Shorb, Harriet Joseph, Jean Leydon, Me1'le Cunningham, Jean Glasscock and Noveda Lowden. MRS. ELLIS The final game was played on April 7, 1932, between Kathryn Shorb's and Lorena Richardson's teams. The latter team won by a score of l to O. The players on Lorenais team were: Center forward, Lorena Richardson, right inside, Sevart Avakiang left inside, Anne Mae Shaw and Edith Bosson falternatesjg right wing, Anna Mae Alleruzog left wing, Vivian Lawg center half-back, Gertrude Bedrosiang right half, Mildred Denmang right full-back, Grace Merzoiarig left full, Helen Sackettg goal-keeper, Frances Kennedy. There were many outstanding players on the losing teams such as: Helen Potts, Betty Caldwell, Kathryn Shorb, Dorothy B. Hall, Ruth Shields, Eileen Sullivan and numerous others. The hockey season has been a thrilling new sport for the girls. Very few casualties were listed with the exception of a few bruises and skinned knees. The hockey enthusiasts are already eagerly looking forward to next year's com- petition. Standing: Merzoian, Sackett, Richardson, Avakian, Kennedyg Kneeling: Denman, Bedrosian, Alleruzo, Law, Bosson.
