By virtue of the raise in price, we were able to have a two-tone color scheme and twenty additional pages which included two new sections. Special thanks are due the seventh, tenth, and twelfth grades who showed a gen- erous spirit by forfeiting their prizes won in the Nautilus sales contest in order that the size of the annual might be increased, In these times of depression 'tis well to laugh. lt was with this in mind that we used the creations of various renowned cartoonists. To our own cartoonist, Harry Allen, goes the credit for the division pages. Appreciation is extended to Mr. Franklin, the typing department, the office, and to all others who co-operated in making the l933 Nautilus a success. MRS.

History of the Class of '33 With many achievements added to the history of the school, the class of 1933 bade farewell to Roosevelt. Following the tradition left by preceding graduates, this class when juniors, sponsored the three athletic dances, thus firmly establishing this custom. When the inter-class track-meet was held in l932, this group showed good sportsmanship by cleaning the fishpond as the penalty for defeat. When the Senior Play, The Patsy,U was given, these juniors selfishly perhaps, but looking forward to their Prom, sold enough tickets to warrant a third perform- ance. The officers in the junior year were as follows: Oakley Hunter, president, Robert Blau, vice-president, Laurell Arnold, secretary-treasurer, Paris Thomas, yell leader, Thomas Boyd, sergeant-at-arms. November fifth was a big night in the Senior Calendar. After many discussions involving a decision between a Prom and a Dinner-Dance, the Prom finally won out. Dorsey Dwelle, the Senior Class President, had serious difhculty in making the boys get their Udatesn. As a result, an edict was issued that this would be the last Prom given, unless the next class made a special request. For the Prom a futuristic silver deer motif was used with blue, coral, and black as colors for the favors, programs, and decorations. The Jazz Orchestra bought some new numbers for this special occasion. The Prom over, the January class was then faced with the problem of choosing a Baccalaureate speaker. Dr. Leonard Oschsli was the one chosen. A class of forty students graduated on the twenty-sixth of January with the motto: Let us be seen by our deedsf' The student speakers for commencement were Dorsey Dwelle, Hugo Kazato, and William Otto, Jr. Rev. Luther E. Stein addressed the graduates on The Great American Sneeru. He began his speech with the remark, I don't see why you have an outside speaker when you have such splendid orators here in your own school. lt was with this idea in mind that the June class decided to have only student speakers. To he what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming was the motto of the largest class to graduate from Roosevelt. Commencement took place on June seventh. The speakers were Lowell Firstenberger, Oakley Hunter, Edwina Riley and Alvin Walker. Saluting a class flag of orchid and green, the class said adieu to its Alma Mater, wishing its successors the best of luck and happiness.

Hurley Organized in the fall of 132 in time to sponsor the first Senior High dance Armistice Embarlccaderol' on November 9, 1932, the Class of '3-1 set forth on a year of activity. The Snow Carnival followed on January 13, 1933, with all the hilarity of a trip to the High Sierras in midwinter. 'lihe third and last dance on lllay 18, 1933, was highly flavored with Spring in all its joy of blossoms and sunshine. The class sweater was adopted in the Spring of '33, thus allowing the February Class as well as the June Class the privilege of two semesters of service. The Feb- ruary Class is practically one hundred percent blue . Co-operation of our class members, faithfulness of class officers, home-room rep- resentatives, and sponsors have brought results which all will remember.

It was the second sophomore class to be organized in Roosevelt. However, we were not allowed to organize until we presented a pro- ject that would be of service to the school, so the class set out to make Roosevelt's rooting section the best in the city. It was only a short time until we had elected class oflicers. We investigated the games to see what was lacking in our rooting section. As a result of this investigation a drill team, a yell team, and two song leaders were elected. The direction of the class project was under the supervision of an executive board which had charge of all business matters. The members of the executive board were the class officers and also two representatives, a boy and a girl, from each home room. At each meeting the representatives of the board brought to- gether the opinions and wishes of the entire class. Even before the class was organized, we felt we had manifested our ability to put things over, by selling candy and popcorn at the P. T. A. dance in March. Perhaps Mr. Otto thought so, too, for he soon gave us permission to organize! Tfwenty-four First Row: Graham, Hooper, Sinarf.

Sophomore Yell-Drill Team The class of '35, although still a young organization, has already done much toward the completion of its project. The drill team, made up of thirty-two girls, has shown much ability. As an aid to the Student Body yell leader, a yell team was organized, working in unison in leading the yells. On the day that Roosevelt defeated Fresno High in baseball 21-3, the class of '35 put on a skit during a rally, forecasting our victory. The drill team made its first appearance using green and gold cards to form the letters. The team is planning on doing fancy marching and forming of serpentines, but this will not be done until the football season next fall. Every Wednesday' during home room period the class has a meeting in the auditorium. At these meetings the class of '35 band, composed of eleven members, takes charge of the musical part of the program. Before the interclass track meet the Juniors and Sophomores joined forces in order to be better trained for rooting at the track meet. The two grades held com- bined meetings to prepare songs and yells. In April the girls of the class put on a very interesting pantomime for the Girls' Leagueg the boys of the class put on another pantomime at the P. T. A. Carnival that same month. During the spring the class of '35 had a dancing class in which forty-two were enrolled. All in all, the group seems to be well on its way as far as organization is concerned. lt should be capable of assuming the duties of the Junior Class next fall.

CDRGANIZATIONS T Associated Student Body FIRST SEMESTER OFFICERS ERNEST JORGENSEN . . President DORSEY DWELLE Vice-President EUNICE PITTMAN . . Secretary EDITH LANDER ..... Treasurer WALTER STALEY .... Yell Leader Sponsor-Mr, William A. Otto The Associated Student Body consists of over fourteen hundred students including both Junior and Senior High divisions. This organization promotes the co-operation be- tween students and faculty and also carries on projects of interest to the school as a whole. The fall semester officers installed in June, '32, started off the new term with a bang when Ernest Jorgensen took charge of the meeting, and Dubby Staley led the students in yell after yell. This was a suitable beginning for the meet- ings which followed. The purchase of fifty-four hats for the band was one of the first projects of the year. Then came the installation of a new sprinkling system on the football turf. The Student Body also procured a float for the Ar- mistice Day parade, advertising the football game between the Roosevelt Rough Riders and the Fresno High Warriors. Toward the close of the semester the Student Body had JoRGENsisN as its guests, the officers of the Lemoore High School.

With Francis Orr presiding, the Student Body adopted a standard athletic sweater as an award. A system of graduation cum laudeu was established. When the 'KPeanuts won the county championship, the Student Body saw to it that they were given small gold basketball awards. The Student Council is the judiciary branch of the As- sociated Student Body in which the business of the school is conducted. This body consists of representatives from each Home Room. These representatives report proceed- ings of the council to their various rooms. In this way every student in the school is acquainted with the matters pertaining to student welfare. This group is presided over by the vice-president of the Student Body and meets alternately with the regular Stu- dent Body meetings. F, . ,v- ORR VVOODS ARANCIBIA SCHMIDT First Row: Young, I..

They are the social service, home room representative, personal efficiency, social courtesies and decorations, honor awards, and new projects committees. The committee chairmen for the first semester were Margaret Cox, Eleanor Bliesner, Evelyn Freitas, Ethel Naman, Helen Arancibia and Eunice Pittman. Those for the second semester were Lois Sullivan, Catherine Swett, Eleanor Russell, Mary Burns, Sarah Peterson, and Janet Allyn. The year's program included both social affairs and charitable work. The League sponsored the distribution of food to needy families at Thanksgiving, and on Bundle Day clothing was brought. The social program included a Mothers' Tea and a dance honoring the Boys' Federation. Evelyn Ereitas and Laverne lVIerino were the representatives chosen for the annual Girls, League Convention held in Bakersheld in November. Thirty First Row: Dale, Moore.

Otto, Mr. Earle Snider Excalibur, one of the outstanding clubs of the school, is sponsored by the Fresno Chapter of the Loyal Knights of the Round Tableu. The membership is limited to the number in the sponsoring unit, which at present is thirty-five members. Excalibur is a national organization with various chapters located in many sections of the United States. Roosevelt is proud of having one of the few chapters in California. Among the ideals of the club are loyalty, citizenship, and fellowship. Perhaps the aims of the club are best expressed by Excalibur's motto: He who seeks to serve another, best serves himselff' Regular meetings are held on Tuesdays at luncheon. After the business session, some form of entertainment is provided by the program chairman. On the evening of November seventeenth, Excalibur entertained, as guests at an informal dance, the members of Boadicea, Witenagemot, California Scholarship Federation, and the Senior Girls' Luncheon Club. At the All-Club dance on May fifth, members of the club acted in the official capacity of reception committee. The greatest accomplishment of the year was the writing of an initiation ritual by several members with the help of two advisers. It was based on 'AThe Idylls of the King by Tennyson. lblembers of the Fresno Round Table consider the ritual so symbolic of the knighting ceremony it portrays that they hope to make it a National Excalibur ritual. Every year the California District of Round Table holds a one-day convention. This year it was held at San Jose, on April 29th. lt was not compulsory for delegates from Excalibur clubs to attend, but a special feature in the convention is held for them, in the form of an oratorical contest. Unly one delegate is allowed to go, or at least to enter the contest, from each club. This year our delegate and entrant in the contest. was Bill lllclielvey, with Ted Bollinger furnishing the transportation to and from San .lose and attending some of the sessions. XVith only ten days notice before the conven- tion, Bill did exceedingly well to prepare a ten- minute oration which brought home the award. First Row: Bakman. Barieau. .xllli-'l'ilC'LlHl2lH.

The club meets every lVednesday at noon in the Assembly Hall. Une of the main activities of the year was the luncheon for the eighteen February graduf ates. hir. and hlrs.

The outside' 'speakers who led discussions during the year were Dean Diary Baker, Klar- jory Ludy, and Evelyn Erickson of Fresno State College, who told the girls about sororities and other campus organizations, lwrs. Helen Sim- mons, who spoke on personalities. Hooks, clothes, make-up, modern drama, hobbies, marriage, divorce. home decoration, and smoking and drinking were some of the topics discussed. ln Our Luncheon Club was chosen as the official club song. It was written by Muriel lVIaul and Maryf Burns. A unique feature carried on in the club is the disposal of the trays. Every week three girls are asked to take out the trays. Each girl in alphabetical order takes her turn. and in this way noise and confusion are eliminated. The president appoints committees to decor- ate the tables on days when there are special speakers. The fun-meeting in April was an interesting meeting in which each member gave short speeches on assigned topics. WITENAGEMOT FIRST SEMESTER President . . . Oakley Hunter Vice-President . . .

Otto The VVitenagemot takes its name from one of the oldest governing bodies of England, and means ACouncil of VVise lVIen . It is an organi- zation dedicated to the study and application of parliamentary law, and was the first group of its kind in Roosevelt High School. There are now twenty-five members all of whom are trained to direct the affairs of student organizations. The roll call is answered by quotations from famous authors. Since hir. Otto is the sponsor, thirty minutes of each meeting are turned over to hiin for parliamentary instruction and prac- tice. During this practice the temporary chair- man suffers through 'fCalls for the Order of the Uayf' f'Questions of Privilege, and Appeals from the Decision of the Chair, until finally he must yield the gavel on 'fPoint of Orderu. The programs are varied and interesting, covering a wide scope of subjects ranging from automobiles to astrology. Throughout the year the speaking ability of each member is tested through these programs. A pot-luck supper was held the last meeting of the first semester at which Excalibur members were honored guests. The program consisted of a play. The crowning success of the lVitenagemot year was the third anniversary banquet held on the fourth of April at which a play, written and directed by Oakley Hunter, was given. Guests were alumni members of the club and faculty sponsors. Some of the recent initiates who do not have insets are Bob Natzel, Leland Sawyer, Vernon Dwelle, Harold Gamble.

Boadicea, the name which stands for an ancient queen of Britain, was chosen as a name for the girls' parliamentary law club of Roosevelt High School. The club was reorganized in September, l932. Thirty members is the maximum number allowed in the club at one time. The club meets every Thursday after school. During the past year the meetings have been very interesting and profitable. Roll call was answered with a quotation from some famous author. A business meet- ing followed. Every member was given a chance to be chairman of the meeting dur- ing the course of parliamentary practice. The duties of the chair required clear thinking and sharp wits. At least one social function is given each semester. A tea was given for the mothers of the members in December. The Christmas motif was used. The members voted it a most enjoyable afternoon. The success of Boadicea is due to the loyal co-operation of the girls in everything undertaken.

It was organized April I-l, 1930, under the leadership of IlIrs. blorrison, and from a modest membership of ten has grown to thirty members. IVhen in the fall of 1931 Mrs. Fuller became our librarian, IVIrs. IVIorrison retired in her favor. During the past year, the Library Club has been active in the service of the Roosevelt High School. Its greatest contribution has been the enlarging of the pay collection library, which now numbers seventy books. Books purchased go- into genf eral circulation as soon as they are paid for by rental. The most highly prized book in the collection is 'iThe Flying Carpetfl bought at the request of a number of boys. This was autographed by its author, hir. Richard Halliburton, on his recent visit here. The members of the club have also been eflicient in the regular Service they have given as librarians. That they might give better service, they held weekly luncheon meetings for the purpose of receiving instruction in library science. In addition reg- ular meetings have been held every other VVednesday at which reports have been given and other interesting programs. They have had the honor of entertaining such guests as Miss Marsh, Mr. Hubbard, lVIrs. Otto, and bliss Paxton. Those not in picture: Elaine VValtman, Jean Glenn, and James Irvine.

The Senior Patrol Leader, Bill Otto, an Eagle Scout, was active in the reorgani- zation.

The troop enjoyed several overnight hikes and took an active part in the Boy Scout Jamboree held in Ma5'. Bill Otto became a Junior Assistant Scoutmaster, and four members of the troop became candidates for Eagle rank. Scouts deserving special mention for their advancement are Bill Otto, Adolph Meier, Phil Edwards, Harvey Edwards, Doug Hubbard, John Otto, Lloyd Roth and Bert and Archie Caughell.

But-heat produces energy, and thanks to the faithful old stove, the sparkling- brainedy' students gradually revive and inspira- tion comes! Two weeks or so later an atmosphere of ex- citement pervades the place! VVhat can it mean? Hurrying reporters, absorbed Copy-readers, and a worried news editor! It is the day before the Roosevelt News goes to press! This is only a bird's-eye View of the ma- chinery of the Roosevelt News staff in action. The course, open to eleventh and twelfth grades, is taught by Miss Evinger. The staff includes news and sport editors, an advertising mana- ger, and reporters who have special assignments such as sports, jokes, and social news. The first journalism class issued a five- column paper under the direction of Miss Ellen Hicks in 1929. The following year it grew to six columns. It has steadily been improved upon until now it is eight columns in size, with vari- ous kinds of type and many new features. The editorial board, composed of second semester journalism students, has done much to promote the progress of the Roosevelt News which, by the way, was the only High School paper pub- lished regularly in the city during 1933.

The first bit of competition presented itself in debating. After a great many inter-class debates, the Var- sity Debate Team was finally chosen. Extemporaneous speaking and extemporane- ous reading followed closely on the program. Alma Pratt represented Roosevelt in the County lfxtemporaneous Speaking preliminaries, while Floreen lwegenity and Bill lWcKelvey sought the honors in the Reading Contest. This year the California lnterscholastic Fed- eration sponsored the Oratorical Contest, which in previous years has been handled hy the Los Angeles Times. Through the co-operation of the history, civic, and sociology classes, in combi- nation with the two public speaking classes, the Oratorical Contest was made one of the largest speech events at Roosevelt.

Forty-eight Dramatics Twinkle, twinkle little star, How I wonder what you arelu Believe it or not, this well-known quotation came from the lips of none other than lanky Oakley Hunter, reciting his poem before the dramatics class! VVhy? Be- cause each member of the class was obliged during the year to memorize and recite poems that are used in the various grades from the first to the twelfth. ' Miz. l..Kl Al'lC'I l'E HYDE Poetry was not the only interesting and advantageous project taken up by the class. There were long and often heated discussions on topics of interest to young people, such as Love, Vocations, Re- ligion, and Marriage which, Mr. Hyde maintains, come under the heading of dra- matics since they all deal with character and development. Valuable experience was gained through the actual production of two plays. His Methodist Foot was given for the P. T. A. Carnival on April twenty-second, and The Arrival of Kitty was scheduled for the last day of school. The first play included seven members of the class and was directed by Laverne Merino. HThe Arrival of Kitty had eight characters and was directed by Mr. Hyde. The stages for both plays were arranged by students of the class, as were also the costumes. Perhaps the most practical experience gained was that of learning the art of make-up. The students discovered that it was serious work and required study and concentration. The dramatics class did almost all of the make-up for the Senior Play, The Three One-Act Plays, and several others. A. . ,L H,-.I A , I fx. .N 1 1 ggi? . jfs, QR, ' in .

June Johansen Butlers . . . . . Charles Van Valkenhurgh, Leslie Otis With a glamorous black and white setting, a new thrill of accents in Standard English, and a distinctive Cast, the All-School Play was produced in October. Tom Carter, as John Wortliing, took the male lead and threw far-fetched jokes above the heads of both the Junior and Senior High audiences in his rapid love-making to Jickie Alderman, who took the part of Gwendoline Fairfax. Algernon Moncrielf played by Jack lVlorgan, furnished untold entanglements and sentimental giggles in his capers around Helen Muth, who played the role of John lVorthing's ward, Cecily Cardew. Helen Arancibia portrayed cleverly Lady Bracknell, the old 'imeanieu of the story. lVhat is a play without a pair of sentimental old lovebirds? This time it was June Johansen and Bill lVIcKelvey. Clever touches of humor were brought in hy the butlers, Charles Van Valkenburgh and Leslie Otis. As usual Mr. Hyde was the director.

Hyde, Roosevelt produced the best collection of One- Act Plays in its dramatic history. They had the audience rolling in the aisles one minute and wringing out their handkerchiefs the next. They even had Mr. Barker running his fingers through his hair, and Bill Cosby laughing right out loudl Heading the program was A Wedding,ll a riotous comedy that made much of the loss of the groom's collar button. The bride and bridesmaids were Visions of love- liness in their bridal finery. Following this came a tragedy, considered fully as good as the famous HValiant. This praiseworthy production was entitled HNo Sabe and dealt with a mysterious murder, the authority of the law, and a love that was barred by race distinction. Jerry Arbuckle portrayed the law in its sternest phase, and Joseph Parret enacted the part of the Chinese servant. picturing a deep-rooted devotion for a girl whose happiness meant more to him than his own life. The tense atmosphere created by this play was broken when the curtain went up on the scene of UA Mad Breakfastu. The queerest looking people, the oddest actions. and the funniest plot made this farce one to bring tears of merriment to the eyes.

Captain Appleiaclcn sicxioia PLAY lVe quote from the Roosevelt News: XVitli exceptional ability, all persons con- nected with the senior play, 'Captain Applejackf put it over successfully. The ease and reality in the acting of the players were unusual for a group of high school students. l3utAthey were not high school students for the two hours of the playg they were men and women involved in an intricate plot in an old house on the bleak coast of Eng- land. Jack llorgan, as Captain Applejackf' astonished everyone with his versatility in portraying two such widely varied parts, while Nell Stallings, as Anna Valeska. spoke English, French, and Portuguese with apparently equal ease. As lvan Borolsky, the Villain, YVendell VVoods played his part in a strikingly vivid manner. Poppy Faire, who was in love with her guardian, was acted by diminutive Helen Nluth. The part of llfrs. Agatha lVhatcombe, the temperamental and easily perturbed aunt of Am- brose Applejohn, was taken by Helen Arancibia. Clinton Seals and ,lanet Allyn, as Nlr. and lXIrs. Pengard, spent most of their time going in and out of windows, stealing jewels, and holding people up. Dan Aller surprised everyone as Johnny Jason, the man who could sell anything, while Gerald Ar- buckle played Dennet, the fake policeman, with as much ease as he did the inspector in No Saben. Lush, the unemotional and unruffied family retainer, was played by Bill lfkas. Louise Arancibia was the maid and also the prompter. The second act, which was a dream, was made most colorful by David Naman, Bill Cosby, Klilton Chatalbash. Ralph Harris, Ben Americanian, lValter Staley. Dale Starling, llary Burns, llluriel lllaul, and Hugh Dunn who were bold, bad pirates on a pirate ship. ln the end Ambrose realized his desire for romance and adventure within his own home and found that he had loved Poppy all the time.

Other activities included a Valentine Dance for the Student Body in February. This was so successful financially that the club paid for its Nautilus picture, gave a dance on April sixth for members and guests only, and purchased emblems. The boys hope to make the Valentine Dance an annual affair. A great deal of credit is due the committees that planned and carried out the various activities pertaining to the afternoon's pleasure. For the All-Club Dance on Nlay fifth, the boys had charge of the music which was furnished by the Jazz Qrchestra.

In appreciation of its very satisfactory and rapid progress, the Board of Education provided an ample supply of music. This year the hand for the first time was supplied with uniforms. The caps were furnished by the student body, and the remainder of the uniforms were furnished by the members of the band. The attractive outfits consist of green caps trimmed in gold, white shirts with black bow ties, and white duck trousers with green stripes edged in gold on each side. It was a Hred letter dayll when the band made its first appearance in uniform in the Armistice Day Parade. On the afternoon of the same day at the football game between Fresno High and Roosevelt, every Rooseveltian heart was filled with pride as the band marched on to the football field. The band also participated in the outdoor Tlianksgiving program, in all Student Body rallies and meetings, in interclass track and field meet, in the Fresno County lway Festival, and in the final event of the yearg namely, Commencement Exercisesn in June.

This orchestra is playing second and third grade music. lt has played many of the compositions in the first four books of Fischer Progressive Booksf' also many sup- plementary sheet music selections from the Advanced Orchestra library. Members of this orchestra are transferred to the Advanced Orchestra as soon as they have advanced suiiiciently to play Advanced Orchestra music. Approximately ten will be ready for Advanced Orchestra work next fall. By filling the places left vacant by recent graduates, the membership of the Advanced Orchestra is kept up to about forty. The instrumental department is as well equipped with solo and basic instruments as any school in the county. lt has a well-equipped percussion department: drums, Xylophone, tambourine, gong, castanets, and the best Ludwig pedal tympani set made. These were purchased last year. Orchestra members who desire to learn to play these instruments have access to this department.

We had a clean, hard-fighting team, a team which had high morals, and above all a team that had a student body which stood behind it to the finish. ' A great deal of credit should be given to Coaches Jack Savory and John Morehouse, credit going especially to the former as he, a stranger, worked into shape a bunch of boys who were totally inexperienced in the new system of football that he introduced. He encountered many obstacles but with the fine assistance of Coach Morehouse dealt successfully with all of them. The season opened with a practice tilt against the -NGK SAVORY Merced High School team. Roosevelt made its only serious threat to score in the first quarter, but were held for downs. Merced then went through for a seventy-yard march and a score, Winning the game 6-0. In their second game the Rough Riders met the all countyn Fresno State Frosh. The Bullpups unloosed all their trickery and a lot of good straight football to smother the Green and Gold machine 51-0. Even though the team had two disastrous starts, the Rough Riders remained in high spirits and won their next game-a night affair-from Selma 6-0 in a chilling and thrilling contest.

Lightweight Football XVith only three regulars from last year with which to build a team, our new lightweight coach, Gordon VVilson, put out one of the scrappiest teams in Roose- velt's athletic history. The record at first was not very impressive, but the team progressed rapidly as the season advanced and near the end, the Rough Riderlettes were a fighting squad that played good, hard football. All games played were of the close-score variety, which shows that the opponents were given a hard battle. In a pre-season game, the Made1'a heavies nosed out XMQQFILHNQxllfaffffm the babies 6-0. The 'APeanuts', then lost and tied three League games. In their last game, the lightweights traveled to Reedley and handed the Reedley heavies a 7-O defeat as an impressive seasonys close. Coach Wilscan should be given a great deal of credit for his untiring efforts in buildin g up this yearls team and for developing many promising players for next year's varsity. Those who received letters were Captain Lee Fairburn, Dan Aller, Ted Bol- linger, Walter Condley, VVayne Dickman, Frank Finley, Andrew Gardner, Ralph Hague, Ray Hensley, Charles hloore, Ed Negus, Harold Newsom, Qrman Rawlings, Don Schmidt, Paris Thomas, Bill VVeil, Fred VVrightson, Harry vegan and Harold Cosby, Manager. -f X as First Row: Bzxrieau.

Varsity Football ROOSEVELT S1-1ELLs 'IQIECH FOR 26-0 WIN Coach Jack Savoryis men, in their second league encounter, met the Fresno Tech Wolf Pack and made their major conquest in the l932 football season by defeating them 26-0. After a hard fought first half ending with a 6-0 edge for Roosevelt, the Rough Riders speeded up their attack and amassed twenty points. This victory left Fresno High and Roosevelt to Hfight it Out for the city cham- pionship. Nleanwhile Roosevelt engaged in another practice tilt with the Bakersfield Drillers. Bakersfield rolled over the Green and Gold gridders for a 33-0 win. WARRIORS WIN Bio GAh'lEi, 34-0 The championship clash with the Fresno High Wzlrriors was a coveted game. Before a large crowd of six thousand in the stadium on Armistice Day, the l932 x Q5 Q iQ X Qwr ,eg x Sixty-four aww squad of Rough Riders attacked the lVarriors but were turned back on the short end of a 34-O count. The men fought like demons but were unable to cope with their superior 1'ivals. Rooting, music, and cheers, and the waving of the colors of each school, did much to make an interesting contest for the spectators in spite of the heavy toll the l'Varriors took from the Green and Gold. Considering the difhculties overcome this year by our coaches, we may all look for- ward to 1933 as a year of football supremacy for the Roosevelt Rough Riders. The following players received their Varsity HRH: Ernest Jorgensen, Paul Alli- son, Horace Ballow, VVarren Beck, Frank Heller, Louie Boyd, Tom Boyd, Jack Casner, Bill Cosby, Dorsey Dwelle, Qakley Hunter, A. AI. Jones, Enoch Lauderdale, Barney Long, lValter Kloore, Bill Otto, Art Shirley, and Santos Leguina and Phil Sims, managers. Sixty-f-ve Varsity Basketball The Roosevelt Rough Riders closed a successful sea- son, the final standing finding them in third place. The Rough Riders won many of their practice games but did not fare so well in the league race. However, under the coaching of Jack Savory, all invading teams were given a fight to the end. The men who bore the brunt for the squad were Santos Leguina, Herb Gordon, Art Shirley, Alex Goorabian, Daris Warren, Enoch Lauderdale, Lee Duncan and Louis Boyd.

Sixty-sewn Track Despite the fact that the Varsity track team did not win the city track-meet and so keep the Bee-Republican cup for the third consecutive time, the Rough Riders had quite a strong outfit, feared by all the opposition they met. Farly in the season the Rough Riders were looked upon as favorites to retain the Bee-Republican trophy due to the scores against their early opponents. The opening meet of the season was a tilt with Selma. The Rough Riders trounced the Peach-Pickers by a score of 70 to 205 points. Frank Beller led the scoring With a total of 1-PM points, Blask was a close second with 11M JOHN MURICIIOUSIC points' ln the next meet The Fresno State Frosh upset the Rough Riders by a score of 106 to 56 points. Beller led the scoring with 1554, points. Linstrum, a former Rough Rider, was the Frosh star with 15M points. For the last two years Roosevelt has been victorious in the city meet, but this year the Rough Riders were nosed out by Fresno Hi. The scores were Fresno Hi 82, Roosevelt 63, and Edison 5. Frank Baller, in the XVest-Coast Relays, tied the world's inter-scholastic high hurdles record. CLASS B The Rough Riderlettes had a fairly successful track season, bringing home a first place from Selma, a second place in the city competition, and a close second place in the county. The Selma meet was just another day for the fighting Rough Riderlettes, who swept the field by a score of 32 to Edison's 19 points.

Bernhauer broke the city record for the high jump and boosted it to 5' 5 . hlaxwell broke Burby's record in the shot put. Although the contestants worked hard, Fresno Hi slipped into first place by a 6 point lead. The county meet was a heart-rending allair for the boys were nosed out hy Reedley with a score of 26 to 2-I-. lVeiser, the mainstay in the B class relay team, ran for the A class team, thus leaving the Riderlettes in the lurch. Despite this handicap the relay was a thrilling event lost by only a foot. CLASS C Not faring as well as their older teammates the Roosevelt C class Htliinly cladsn failed to win a first in any competition, although they put on some wonderful exhibi- tions in many meets.

Sixty-nine Varsity Baseball Smashing through all opposition in the city, to win all games, the Roosevelt Rough Rider baseball team under Coack Jack Savory, retained the city title won by last yearls team. The Rough Riders were made pre- season favorites by the various sports Writers in Fresno. 7 The only reversal met by the team was in a practice game with Taft, but this encounter was only a practice affair. The Rough Riders opened the season against Fresno High, smothering the Warriors under a 21-3 score. The Edison Tigers were next to be tamed by the Rooosevelt JACIQ SAVORY team by a 9-2 score. The Tech Wolves furnished no op- position to the strong Roosevelt machine as they, too, fell at the hands of the Rough Riders by a score of 10-1. In the next round of play Roosevelt achieved the same fine results by defeating Fresno High 10-3, lacing Edison Tech to the tune of 25-7, and smothering Fresno Tech 10-1. Taking a forfeit from Reedley in the semi-finals, Coach Jack Savoryls men next met Washington Union whom they trounced, thus winning the county title. This can be considered by far the most successful year Roosevelt has had in baseball. In the valley semi-finals Roosevelt landed Bakersfield a 27-5 lacing. In the valley finals Roosevelt won her first valley championship to the tune of 17-2. Last year the Rough Riders reached the semi-finals, there to be eliminated by Tranquillity. The team will be somewhat weakened next year with the graduation of Maybee, Allison, Alleruzo, Anderson, Leguina, Gordon, Shirley, Arbuckle, Pfeif, Fairburn, Avedesian and Warren, but a coach like Jack Savory can pull any team out of a hole, so here's for another good year!

See their smiling faces! .E9 '-77 Somebody remarked that tennis draws a great bunch of folks. As we look them over We believe it is true. At Wliat a treat it was to see them with their tiny Con- trary Mary hand sprinklers sprinkling that solution of X over the tennis courts! Then came the Word that they were to get clay surfaces for the courts! All of that work for nothing! some said, but they took it with a grin. Others said, VVe got the clay because We worked so hard to make these dirt things half usable. Maybe they were right! At any rate they were mighty happy when they found that from another source had come enough money to insure a really good practice board. Inci- dentally, it's the only one in these parts. And now just a word about accomplishments.

These two defeated four teams in practice matches and found only Fresno High as hard competition in the county Semi-Finals. Ben Americanian and Jim Dale won in the Semi-Finals but lost out in the County Finals. At the Semi-Finals Janet Allyn and Harry Woods came out with colors flying. Again in the County Finals they brought honor to Roosevelt by winning the mixed doubles title. Not content with this, these two stars came back with both the silver and gold medals for the Valley Championship. Altogether, it has been a great year for tennis!

Sefventy-one Girls' Athletics Under the supervision of Nlrs. Ethel Turner and Mrs. lwaude Ellis, the girls' P. E. department started another year of intra-mural sports. The girls began the season with volley-ball. Of all the teams competing, Helena Cutrell's team was found to be the best, for it won the championship by winning four out of five games. The members of the team were Helena Cutrell, Teddy Platsis, Elsie Klemm, Evelyn Cowan, Grace Bowling, Virginia Parker, Frances Levey, MRS- ETHEL ,,,URN,,R Marion Clark, and Barbara Morrison. MRS' M-XUUE l'H'LlS Closely following the volley-ball schedule came base- ball. After a heated contest between Eleanor Russell's Jumbos and Helena Cut- 1'ell's 'fXVi1d Cats for the girls' baseball championship, the latter won with a score of twenty-eight to nine. The members of the winning team were Helena Cutrell, Teddy Platsis, Alice Cross, Frances Levey, Dorothy Rasmussen, Cecelia Blodgett, lVIartha Heidt, Grace Howling, Paula Parks, Marion Clark. With the cold weather came basketball, one of the most popular sports played by the girls. Basketball is a good warming-up exercise for the cold winter days. The outstanding teams that competed for the championship were those captained by Arabelle Fordyce, Paula Parks, and Florence Johnson. The latter's team, after a long hard Hght, finally received the championship with a score of thirteen to twelve. The members of the winning team were Florence Johnson, Helen Swegart, Eleanor Radcliffe, Serpia Hodian, Helen Cucuk, and Helen Salwasser. This was the second year of hockey at Roosevelt,-a favorite sport. On account of the stormy weather, the play-off for the championship was delayed, but Helen Potts and her team came up smiling when they defeated Geraldine Rodgers' team by a First Row: Flark, Vulrell.

The squad leaders, chosen by the class are girls who are dependable, efficient, and capable of assuming responsibilities. Each squad leader takes the attendance of her squad. The girls do not compete with other schools as the boys do to earn a letter RH, Letter 'KR,s are given to the girls who have earned at least two hundred points. The points may be earned by being squad leader, team captain, towel or shower clerk, or attendance monitor. Before a girl can be awarded a letter, she must have earned points by keeping rules, and by showing good sportsmanship at all times. First Row: Harris. Barnes. ll. Nletzler, Mariin. llenrlerson.

We saw our fellow classmates dressed as we had never seen them before. Girls in their long, swishy dresses, and boys dressed in their Sunday bestl Decora- tions Were carried out in black, silver, and coral. Refreshments were up to the standard and above. Dan Aller was master of ceremonies. just ask any Sen- ior if the Prom was a success! EXCALIBUR DANCE Dancing to the lively tunes of the school orchestra, and eating pumpkin pie, frosted with whipped cream, will long remain in the memories of those who attended the Excalibur dance on November seventeenth. Guests were announced with flourishing gaiety by a spotlight which was thrown on the couples as they entered the auditorium. Everyone was full of laughter, gaiety, and fun. It was a great dance! P. T. A.-SOPHOMORE DANCE The Christmas motif was carried out in the P. T. A. dance held in the audi- torium from eight until eleven, on De- cember ninth. An ornamented Christ- mas tree stood in the center of the floor, while red and white streamers hung from the ceiling. Hot dogs and coffee were greedily Consumed. Arenyt some of you sorry you were absent? P. T. A. DANCE Spring has come! Everyone who at- tended the P. T. A. dance on March thirty-first celebrated the coming of spring in a lively Way. Johnnie Moi'e- house, of wise-cracking fame and Joe Dale of the P. T. A. were the twin masters of ceremonies. The most popular corner of the room was where ice cream was rapidly con- sumed and fast disappearing punch was served from the bowl which is always kept full by the P. T. A. CARNIVAL Five cents a dance! was the famil- iar cry as the catchy strains of the or- chestra proved more than the guests at the P. T. A. carnival dance could re- sist. Everyone was in a carnival mood. The dancing was lively and the gentle- men, short and tall, old and young, swung fair damsels about the room. GIRLS, LEAGUE MOTHERS' TEA Little mothers, big mothers, grand- mas, aunts! All were invited, to the Girls' League Mothers' Tea. The ori- ental motif was carried out in decora- tions and serving. A program consist- ing of musical numbers was presented at fifteen-minute intervals. Everyone had a delightful afternoon. COSMOPOLITAN TEA DANSANT The high seniors of Roosevelt in the Sociology classes were hosts at a Cos- mopolitan Tea on Friday afternoon, April twenty-eighth. Spring Howers decorated the stage and surrounding walls. Green and lavender constituted the color scheme. Punch and cookies were served as a delightful refreshment. The program consisted of two brief ad- dresses, one on Turkey and one on Americanization. Musical numbers and dances gave variety to the pro- gram. Dancing completed the lovely afternoon. INTER-CLUB DANCE A sport dance was sponsored by all the organizations of the school on the night of May' fifth. Teddy's Toot- ersn, or the Roosevelt Jazz Grchestra furnished the music, and spring Flowers were used for decoration. The refresh- ments, too, are not to be forgotten.

Mrs. Miller's room gave a party on May ll. The other high nine home rooms were not entertained likewise during the year. JUNIOR HIGH GIRLS, ATHLETICS The division which is most outstand- ing in the physical education classes is the assemblage of squad leaders. These girls are relied upon by Mrs. Turner and Mrs. Ellis to fulfill their duties by keeping a daily record of each of the nine or ten girls in her squad. The Junior girls do not participate in all the sports which the Senior girls play. The sports engaged in by the xlunior High girls are soccer, baseball, speed- ball, basketball and volley ball. Baseball and volley ball were played in the fall and the more strenuous exercises prac- ticed in the colder weather. lntra-mural games are played in all sports. Twenty- two girls were selected as captains, who With their teams played to a schedule made by Mrs. Turner and lVlrs. Ellis. Each team played from five to seven games after which the winning teams were selected to play against each other. Championship teams played each other after school to determine the school championship. JUNIOR HIGH Boys' ATHLli'I'ICS The only sport in which the Roose- velt -lunior High boys can take part, as a Junior High team, is track. Junior High boys who made school teams in other sports were Finley, light- weight footballg Puerta, tennisg Green, Finley, and Nlatthew, lightweight bas- ketballg Hart, Puerta, Condley, Green, Reynolds and Nlatthew, track. ln the intra-mural track meet the out- standing boys were Hart, Green, Rey- nolds, and Condley. ln the Junior High Track meet Roo- sevelt placed fourth. Roosevelt won first and second in the Class l hurdles: second in six-man relaysg second in Class Il high jump, and hurdlesg second in Class lll broad jump, second and third second in six-man relaysg second in Class second in the dash and third in the hurdles.

Verna Sporleder, Miss Dorothy Dahlgren The Sesame Girl Reserves, which is the junior organization of the Girl Reserves, meets every lVIonday. The club is made up of about thirty friendly, fun-loving girls from the Junior High School grades. The Girl Reserves emblem is the blue triangle, and from it they take their in- spiration. The sides of the triangle stand for Spirit, Body, and Mind. This triad is a constant reminder to the girls of the importance of developing a well-balanced life. The club has been very active this year. A large portion of the time was spent in doing service work which means service for others. At Christmas time they pre- pared a very Merry Christmas consisting of food, presents, and clothing for a family in the country. The Spring service has been the making of paper dolls and sun-bonnet quilt blocks for little girls in the tuberculosis ward at the General Hospital. The club has many social activities, some of which are held at the Y. W. C. A. Cnc of the favorite forms of entertainment is swimming, followed by a pot-luck supper. Twice a year Recognition Services are held at which time new members join the organization. Another social function, a Mothers, Tea, is a regular occurrence in May. Eighty-four First Row: Suv, li.

Advancement in rank, experience in camping, knowledge of ideals, practicality of handicraft, fun in games based on ability of mind and body-these are our chief objectives. The troop has become one of the chief Scouting groups in the Sequoia Council, accomplishing this in less than six months. VVe, as Roosevelt Student Body members, shall be especially delighted to remem- ber the following high points in recent troop history: the ghostly mystery meeting at which all troop members were blindfolded and led through perilous paths in the dark and silence of Roosevelt halls. There lay dying a Scout who 'ifailed to call his Patrol Leader when he know that he was to be absent from meetingfl Two other mis- erable wretches lay still and cold from failure 'ito go to Scout Courts of Honor in three successive months . Another thrill was that February meeting with fifty-three in attendance! As we plan our spring activities, we see Qlj at least two meetings at the Crown Plunge where swimming may be practiced or tests passed as the Scouts may wish, C21 an all-troop mountain-hike, a Parents' Night, C-H the all-council Camporee in April and C55 the Indian Lore of Southwest tribes reproduced in the State College Stadium at the Annual Jamboree, during lVIay.

Junior Boys' Glee Club FIRST SEMESTER OFFICERS SECOND SEMESTER lflwin Newsom President Rual Ulm slack Douglas Vice-President Merl Blake Secretary-Treasurer Kenneth Ko Roy Schwabenland Librarians Robert Prickett Lloyd Hauke Robert Smale Kathryn Ratliff Accompanists Nlarjorie Degner lllarjorie Degner The Roosevelt Junior Boys, Glee Club is the first one to be organized in Fresno City or Fresno County in the seventh and eighth grades. The club did not engage in a great deal of outside activity in its first year. The boys sang three songs at the County School Trustees' dinner in Februaryg namely, HOne, Two, Three, Fourug i'De Ol' Ark's a-Nloverinug and HThe House by the Side of the Road. The club was hon- ored by being included in the group which sang the finale at the lnternational Spring Festival at Roeding Park. The number used was the UFlag Songl, by Gaynor. Other organizations included in this group were the Junior Girls, Glee Club and the lllixed Chorus from Roosevelt. A very loyal spirit was shown by the boys in all their undertakings. lVhen the collections for the Nautilus picture did not come up to the quota assigned, they held a candy sale to make up the deficit. Some of the candy was made by the boys them- selves. Another device was the establishment of a bank in which spare pennies were deposited throughout the spring semester.
