Roseburg High School - Umpqua Yearbook (Roseburg, OR)

Text from Pages 1 - 124 of the 1951 volume:

SOOIUH HHM-HOIIQH Foreword The age old axiom “A house is no stronger than its founda- tion” can apply just as well to an annual as to a skyscraper. The basis of a yearbook is the theme. After much considera- tion the 1951 Umpqua staff se- lected the theme of a Rodeo which they attempted to cam- on throughout. 4 Dedication In keeping with our theme, we, the staff of the 1951 Ump- qua, do hereby proudly dedicate this yearbook to those people who have enough ol that true western spirit to enjoy some- thing of this sort. We have en- deavored to give a written and pictorial review of the past school year in a pleasant manner.

Remember when the new Library Arts building was under the category of unfin- ished business. It has come a long way since then and it is now the best liked building on our campus. BEFORE 2. You'd hardly recognize the new sewing room of the Homemaking department in all this disorder. Many attractive skirts, blouses, jackets and other useful clothing have been created in this room. 0 I 3. Mrs. Simonson dreamed of this room, and much work went into making it more like a real home with a cheerful fireplace and harmonizing color scheme. 4. All students are very proud of the new library. Since the date of its opening, last Oc- tober 16, the library is usually filled to capacity every day. The Officials ■ The Fair Board PAUL S. ELLIOTT, superintendent of schools, thoughtfully examines next years school budget in view of the ever-increasing school population. Planning school locations is just one of the many tasks of the school board consisting of: N. D. Johnson, J. W. Doyle, V. V. Harpham, C. W. Claren- back, P. S. Elliott, superintendent, G. W. Neuner, school attorney, P. W. Helweg, and A. B. Collier. Room, room, and more room is the most critical and pressing problem of school district four at the present time in the opinion of the Board of Education. The schools’ “housing” problem are acute and many hours have been spent on the first and third Mondays discussing ways to solve it. I lelping to ease the situation are the Board’s newly renovated offices. Mr. Elliott put it this way, “The new offices are a great improvement and will increase the efficiency of the whole hoard.” 8 I ime repeats itself! Again Roseburg Senior High has become a four-year high school, alter a twenty-four year interval, during which the senior and junior high schools were organized with three years each. 1 he student body has increased steadily in the past three years, with a total of over 1100 students this year. Our new Library-Arts building was completed in October and the school also took over half ol the Fullerton building for classrooms. 1 his increase in teachers, students, and rooms made a bigger job for the administra- tion. 1 he administration for this year con- sisted of Mr. George Erickson, Mr. Owen Price, Miss Elizabeth Randall, Mr. Ralph Snyder, and Mrs. Lee Killings worth. Some ol the duties of the administra- tion were to keep permanent records of all the students, help individual students with problems, oversee the functions of the stu- dent lxxly, and in general keep the high school system running smoothly. Another important item was the very important at- tendance records. A new inter-communication system was installed this year because of the need for a direct contact with the office from each room. This was particularly necessary be- cause of the new campus stvle school which involves five buildings. The bulletins were read over the system second period each morning by Mr. George Erickson, princi- pal. Mr. George E. Erickson, principal, oversees the education of all the stu- dents and is responsible for the ad- ministration of our new four-year high school. The Score Keepers Mr. Owen W. Price, vice-principal and dean of boys, checks on tardies and absences. Miss Elizabeth Randall, dean of girls, is a big help in solving some of the problems which come up in the life of a high school girl. Being responsible for those all-important permanent record cards is one of the many duties of Mrs. Lee Killingsworth, secretary. Mr. Ralph I. Snyder, bookkeeper, manages all financial af- fairs connected with the running of our Roseburg High student body. 9 The senior boys' gym class goes through a rather shin barking drill. Potential stars of tomorrow work under the direction of Miss Di Loreto. Those creators of the masterpieces must have some talent and a lot of imagination.

Strasburg, biology; Mr. Alva Laws, gen- oral science, and Mr. Warren Ewing, chemistry and physics, the instructors of the science department, gave their stu- dents a good start into the interesting and cryptic field of science. MATHEMATICS Whether it was trigonometry for college or consumer mathematics for practical purposes, R. H. S. had it, for this year's mathematics department under the con- structive teaching of Mr. Charles N. Hill, general math; Mr. William Ernest Buell, algebra, trigonometry, and geometry; and Mr. Edwin Wyatt, algebra, was the most complete mathematics department in the history of the school.

Snyder, commercial law, ond bookkeep- ing. of the commercial deportment are readying students for their debut into the business world of today. 12 Not only various personalities, but also various activities are represented in the language-arts department with Mrs. Daphne Riffe, senior English and annual; Mr. J. H. Barneck, freshmen English; Miss Marie Di Loreto, dramatics and speech; Mrs. Edna Turner, freshmen English, and Mr. Frank W. Purdy, junior English and journalism.

Peggy Knight, Marvin Sigfridson, Ed Stritzke, Roger Oiler, Lorry Cox, Virgil Guthrie, and Mr. Erickson discusses the refixing of the constitution. new constitution to fit the needs of the en- larged student body and promote more ef- ficient ways of operating activities such as voting and campaigning. The council also directs the interclass rivalry contests and sponsors concessions. An important event of the year was the regional conference on October 5 and 6 at Ashland, which the whole council attended. Capable chairman of the council was Vernon Thompson, whose job was con- ducting business meeting besides doing other endless little jobs. Taking minutes at these meetings was efficient Joyce Harp- ham, secretary. I land ling the finances was well managed by Peggy Knight, treasurer, under Mr. Ralph Snyder s supervision. Keeping order in all A. S. B. meetings was sergeant-at-arms, Marvin Sigfridson. Vice-presidents were Ed Stritzke, junior; Roger Oiler, sophomore; and Virgil Guth- rie, freshman. Also taking part in several of these meeting was a group of represen- tatives made up of a student from each first period class in school. King and Court Much praise is due to the student body council this year for its job in regulating school affairs. This council is the main governing body for all organizations in the school. Its main purpose is to represent the student fxxlv in handling business. The biggest project that the council undertook this year was the writing of a Poised and prepared for any emer- gency that might confront a student body president was Vernon Thompson, who was also a member of the Key Club, National Honor Society, and Hi-Y. These various activities helped to make Vernon an efficient servant of his school.

These were the years the Seniors jingled their spurs through these well-known halls, first as sophomores when they timidly entered the strange un- comprehensible world of the high school. Next we saw them as proud juniors, utterly swept away in an overflowing tide of rings, dances, assemblies, and plays. They worked diligently to make their prom, “Some En- chanted Evening”, the tremendous success it was, and their class play. “The Boarding House Reach”, a masterpiece in amateur production, with the riotous predicaments of Wilbur and his pal Hercules stealing the show. I hen at last we found them as sen- iors assuming the customary dignified (?) air, ready to set the pace for the years mad rush of gay events. After debating long and heatedly over election of officers and the style of announcements, they settled down until the end of the year. This was the year which brought with it the initia- tion of both the Freshmen and Sophomores, a welcome escape from classes; the class carnival over which Queen Noreen reign- ed; and the class play which was a tre- mendous hit. And then after the final exams came the Senior Week, May 27 to June 1. In it were the Senior picnic, with the sunburned faces and blistered backs testifying their enjoyment; the Senior Ban- quet with vivid, fleeting impressions of our friends; and Baccalaureate, a sad and wist- ful farewell to our pleasant times together as the Senior Class. Finally on June 1, the Seniors marched out through the portals of R. H. S. to the accompaniment of the majestic strains of “Pomp and Circumstance”. NOREEN R.

For four consecutive years Dale entered the rodeo competition in the arena of R. H. S. and he always came out on top as a true champ- ion should in athletics and his various of- fices. It is sincerely hoped that silver horse- shoes will continue coming Dale s direction in the years to come! Lending her warm, friendly smile, and her charming personality to the 1950-51 R. H. S. rodeo was Joanne Ware, who was chosen top cowgirl of the year. Various of- fices and activities such as Tri-Hi-Y, Secre- tary of National Honor Society, Pep Club, and Girls’ League Council kept her more than occupied, but she still had time to drop a friendly “hello’’ to evervone she met. May a pot of gold be waiting for Joanne at the end of the trail! 35 Senior Play ARSENIC AND OLD LACE ABBE ...................... Barbara West MARTHA.............................

Yes, you’ve guessed it, it was the Senior Class Carnival. Six hundred dudes, cowpokes, and cowgirls jammed the main corral for the annual shindig which netted the ranch hands of “51” seven hundred dol- lars to finance their school activities. Sou- venir stands, the coke bar, and the various booths such as the baseball throw and the dart throw did a booming business. Even “Spill the Babe” came out financially well in the end! One of the many varied events ol the evening was a cake auction con- ducted by Dick Hempenius and Del Mc- Kay of KRXL. Queen oreen Allen and princesses Joan Ollivant, Joanne Ware Lois Morgan, Janet Foster, and Joan Long reigned supremely over the gala and swirl- ing affair—“The Carnival Comes to Dog- patch.” Community Shindig Our ten gallons are off to shindig chairman. Bob Sullivan, ranch foreman, Frank Olson, chairman of the rodeo committee, Mr. Snyder, and the whole class of 51 for a job well done! Blonde, blue-eyed Noreen Allen cop- ped the 1950 Carnival Queen crown with poise and grace. 38 Junior Color Bearers Dewitt Swanson shouldered many responsibilities when he accepted the junior class presidency. Secretary Anne Mariott and Treasurer Lois McKinney check their notes with class advisor Mr. Scudder while Mr. Purdy class advisor and Ser- geant-at-arms Louis Ripperger, Vice-president Spud Rogers, and President Dewitt Swanson watch approvingly. 1 he Juniors of 51 got off to a rip-roar- ing start with their lively characterizations in Mother is a Freshman, on November 21. The pace set by this successful presentation reached a climax in the Junior Senior Prom on May 5, one of the highlights of the year for all who participated. Their class party was held in March and was very well at- tended and enjoyed. I he Juniors were also successful in inter-class sports, coming out with first place in volleyball and second place in soccerball. In all their games, whether they won or lost, they showed ex- cellent sportsmanship and earned many more badly needed points toward tthe win- ning of the interclass cup, a goal for which they can look forward in their senior year. The beautiful decorations for the outdoor commencement exercises on the turf were also a credit to the junior class. Many were let termen and some were on the starting lineups in basketball and football, and some were top performers in track. Juniors also gave still scholastic competition to the other classes, as 23 were elected to mem- bership in the National Honor Society. I he class of 52, numbering nearly 280, is the largest class of juniors yet to trod the halls of dear old R. H. S. With the class officers, Dewitt Swanson, president; Howard Rodgers, vice president; Anne Mariott, secretary; Lois McKinney, treas- urer; and Louis Ripperger, Sergeant-at- Arms, and under the guidance and super- vision of the class advisors Mr. Purdy and Mr. Scudder, all the junior activities were kept well in hand and running smoothly. 39 T.

Sophomore Treasurer Pat Roark listens attentively to class advisor Mrs. Broaddus as class advisor Mr. Strausbura looks on. Secretary Shirley Wil- kenson and President Tom Burke note the order of business as do Vice- president Michael Wooton and Council Representative Roger Oilar. Three hundred Sophomores registered for classes beginning September 6—the sophomore class being the largest in the history of Roseburg Senior High School. Nevertheless this large group of stu- dents soon made themselves at home. Dur- ing the week of September 25 to 29, fac- ulty and upperclassmen were saying how different the Sophomores looked. Girls were dressed in jeans and shirts and had their hair put up in braids with twenty-four ribbons. I he unusual appearance of the boys was due to their wearing shirts and ties backwards and rolling up their jeans. Beginning at eight o’clock every morning Sophomores were very much the underdog in Roseburg Senior 1 ligh—shining shoes, carrying books, washing cars, signaling every time they made a turn and saying a million “allahs” whenever their masters would command them. The climax of the week came at an as- sembly held sixth period with Frank Olson, senior class president as master of cere- monies, looking as if he were having fun giving the underclassmen those egg and Fizzwater facials. Another event to help Sophomores orient themselves within the school was the tea given the girls of the class by the Girls’ League, September 13. This was an in- formal, after-school event with refresh- ments served on the tennis court. The sophomore class elected a very able group of officers: Tom Burke, president; Michael Wooton, vice-president; Shirley Wilkinson, secretary; Pat Roark, treasurer; and Roger Oilar, sergeant at arms.

Kee Briggs, editor of the UMPQUA, prepares to take some candid shots. Mrs. Daphne Riffe discusses pians for next year's annual with Lois McKinney, assistant editor. The financial problems of the UMPQUA were left to Doree Ellis, while Joan Olli- vant handled the art depart- ment. Umpqua I o round up the year s story of events in the big corral the Umpqua staff spurred their progress bv gathering around the campfire for a full hour every day. A quota of 700 annuals to be sold for the year was set. About half of the quota was met in the first pre-sale late in October. Approximately a fourth of the book was financed by sponsors who were business men in the town contacted by Doree Ellis, business manager, and her assistants, Anette Gibbons and Grace Hasbargen. I he rest of the finances came from the student sales. Outgoing expenses consisted mainly of photography, engraving, printing and binding. f oreman Kee Briggs and his cowhands chose a theme typical of the West. Sketches to illustrate the theme were drawn by Joan Ollivant, art editor. Size ol the 51 annual was increased to 116 pages from 92. Fifteen per-cent of the book was due at the printer bv the end of December, including senior portraits and activities. I he staff, now a member of National Scholastic Press Association, located at University of IVlinnesota, has tried to improve the quality of the book by taking advantage of the critical service of this organization. 56 Orange R Extra! Extra! Read all the latest news from RHS!” eould he heard loudly every other Friday at noon. The staff of the Orange R, headed hv Kee Briggs the editor- in-chief, kept the ranchers well informed of what was going on in the corral throughout the year. Linder the advice of Mr. Frank Purdy, the staff worked to turn out a better paper each time, with the Christmas issue and Commencement issue being special editions. 1 lelping out the editor were Marcia Newland, man- aging-editor; Juanita Thomas, assignment editor; Dick Jacobson, advertising manager; and Jim Helliwell, bus- iness manager. The Orange R was published by the ad- vanced journalism class, who was a selected group. To help finance the paper the advertising manager con- tacted the businessmen of town for advertisements to be placed in the paper. I he rest of the money came from the student body fund; and cowpokes who held student body cards received their papers free. All other students had to purchase their papers. I he staff made an all-out effort to balance the budget. SEATED (left to right): Kee Briggs, Juanita Thomas, Barbara Bailey, Elienor Rumsey, Valarie Sparks, Paula Helwig.

Marcia Newland, Juanita Thomas and Mr. Purdy make a lost minute check on assign- ments. 57 Radio Class One of the most interesting and educational of elective courses offered in our school is the radio class, under the direction of Mrs. Broaddus. Listed as a very worthwhile class it gives everyone a chance to participate in programs of his own in terest. 1 he students take turns at managing a pro- gram, giving news, and presenting musical numbers. Interesting speakers have visited this class from the two local radio stations and other places of in terest. I his year a new type of program was initiated. I his gave other classes a chance to present talent and ideas from other educational departments. Another important feature of this class is the chance it gives to visit the radio stations and observe the programs actually being broadcast. Several of the boys were allowed to shadow news casters. During the latter half of the year Don Broadwater, Jim Prowell, and Ken Bergerson joined in this experience. Iwo students, Juanita Thomas and John Robertson, gave a fifteen minute disc-jockey program at KRXL, where they wrote their own script and chose their own records to spin. The students held cake and candy sales with Junior Trent in charge to raise money for a micro- phone stand which was badly needed. Approximately the middle of the year this purchase was made.

Mr. Stiles has been the director since Jan- uary of 1949 and under his capable direction the band improved in playing and marching ability. I heir snappy steps and flashy uniforms made a favorable impression evervwhere they went. 1 hev were especially appreciated here in our own school. Bond librarians Darlene Wilson, Don Campbell, and Leola Lorenzen had the job of keeping the music and files in shape. Capable director of the Senior Band was Mr. E. G. Stiles. 63 PREP BAND The Prep Band, directed by Mr. Clyde Moore, was formerly called the Junior Band. I hey played in the Spring Concert on April 18, and at the Grade School Football Jamboree.

Although having only a moderately success- ful season as far as winning goes with three wins, five losses, and one tie, Coach “Cece” Sherwood had many reasons for terming the past season “highly successful.’’ Starting the season with only two regulars and a small handful of reserves, Coach Sherwood and Coach Ray Brown started whipping up an inexperienced team to go against the highly touted Springfield Millers on September 15. For eight consecutive weeks following, the Ind- ians tackled some of the toughest competion in the state. The green redman with big hearts and little experience crushed the Millers 13-12. In each game afterward the squad showed marked improvement in the execution of plays, in tackl- ing, and in blocking.

Led by Kee Briggs, with 200 points, seven Indians poured more than 100 points each through the hoop to make this the highest scoring team in the history of the school and the team record of fourteen wins and seven losses was also the most successful in years. After taking two losses at the hands of the tall Pelicans from Klamath Falls, the redmen came back to win six straight games before being stopped by iMedford 46-43. Roseburg won games from such teams as Willamette of Eugene, Marshfield, and Reedsport. I he Indians came through in league play without a loss to take the sub-district title and then proceeded to win the sub-district tour- nament in three straight games. Thev team was O O J honored at the Junior Chamber of Commerce banquet at which time Dale Blanck was awarded the inspirational award and Kee Briggs the foul shot trophy with a per centage of .669. Only two members of this year s varsity will be back to form the nucleus of next year s squad because eight are graduating seniors.
