GTO-SS PRINCIPAL THE ORANGE BLOSSOM 'ZBHE CPRINCIPADS MESSAGE cg believe that the present senior class will make Hne citizens and that thev will give back to the world in service what they have gained from their four years' contact with the faculty, the students, and the spirit of good-will and service found in the San Fernando High School, remarked Harry E. Gross, who came to San Fernando High School last September, 1925, to take the place of Mrs. Ellie C. Ingham, principal for twenty-two years. Mr. Gross, who is ambitious for the high school and for each student, feels confi- dent that the institution, as it grows with the town, can develop a spirit best expressed in the school motto, 'fHonor is the reward of excellence, and a self-governing student body in which each member will so conduct himself that no control from the outside will be necessary. In 1910 Mr. Gross was graduated from the College of the City of New York. He immediately entered the service of the Federal Government as special agent of the Census of Manufactures of Mines, later becoming the chief special agent. From 1911 to 1916 our principal became wholesale piano merchant representative for the Sohmer Co., piano makers, covering the states of Iowa and Wisconsin. Becoming interested in the teaching profession, Mr. Gross accepted the position of mathematics instructor in the Hanford Union High School, California, during 1917-18. Then he entered the Los Angeles city system, instructing in mathematics and band work in the Los Angeles High School from 1918-21. Mr. Gross, who plays the violin with a fine technique, had conducted several bands and orchestras in the East before coming to California. ln 1921. Mr. Gross became head of the mathematics department in Jefferson High School, Los Angeles, where he stayed until he came to San Fernando as the high school's new principal. Concluding his remarks, Mr. Gross stated: I wish especially to commend the two honor scholarship societies, the Philomathean and the Ergon Kalon, for in those societies we find the students who best exemplify the prime purpose of any school, namely the maintenance of a high scholarship standard. lt isnlt the gold, silver, or bronze pin worn by the honor student that distinguishes him, it is the effort that he has expended during his four years that places him in the foremost rank. The self- disciplined training, the development of perseverance and proficiency mean character building that stands a student in good stead when he enters his chosen career. The great men of the world like Roosevelt and Taft were honor students. When business men write to me for recommendations after a student is graduated, the questions they ask are, Is he capable in his studies? and What has he done for his school? What initiative does he possess? I cannot place too much emphasis on the two aims of the best student, self-improvement and xerfvicef' . HONOR is THE REWARD OF EXCELLENCE. fx, f THE ORANGE BLOSSOM - 'M f' FACULTY HARRY E. CRROSS - ft74..L7'f7J' ' ORERT L. FRAISHER FAITH ROBERTS - - Www W 1..AR,x WALKER Qfllffl RL7T'I'l M.

The Ephebian honor for 1926 has been bestowed upon Esme Brown, a senior of excellent scholarship, leadership, and character, who has stood above others in her class. As business manager of The llfhirlwind in 1924-25, as class officer during her school career, as participant in many of the school plays in the last two years and in interclass contests, as winner of the Nina Brown Medal in 1925, as a student body officer, and as president of the Girls' League for 1925-26, Esme has proved her right to the Ephebian honor. Having the greatest number of A's in academic subjects, Madeline Skinner has been selected as the valedictorian for the class of 1926. lblarvin Pilcher, because of his superior effort and achievement as athlete, student, and citizen in the school community, has been chosen as the second boy 'to have his name engraved on the Malin bronze tablet which hangs in the auditorium. As stu- dent body president, district winner in the oratorical contest on the Constitution, and all-around athlete, Marvin has won an honor that can be bestowed upon only one senior boy each year. The senior boys receiving honorable mention are Franklyn Beyea and Melvin Fowlerg the juniors, Claire Rogers and Henry Knight, and the sophomores, Henry Benefiel and Ernest Lindholm. The Nina Brown Medal and the twenty-five dollars in cash donated annually by Dr. A. B. Brown, formerly of San Fernando, now of Santa Monica, in memory of his daughter Nina Brown of the class of 1923, will be given this year to Dorothy Sidey of the junior class. Melvin Fowler, who acted as student body treasurer for 1924-25 and who has held high class offices, has been selected to represent the seniors as their class orator on Commencement night. Other students in the school who have been honored during the year are Charles Roloff, a freshman, who was given first place in the F reshman-Sophomore Declamation contestg Edward Walther, a junior, who won second place in the Book Week essay contest conducted by the English teachers and librarians of the Los Angeles city schoolsg Neville Lewis and Carryl Gould whose papers won locally in the national competitive examination on the League of Nationsg Frank Castle who was awarded first place in the first Junior-Senior debateg Fredna Tweedt and Frank Castle who won the Huntington Beach debate for San Fernandog Dorrace and Carryl Gould who placed first in the Highland Fling at the Glendale Eisteddfodg Elmer Goad, a sopho- more, who won second place in the song contest for boys between the ages of fifteen and eighteen in the Eisteddfodg and Margaret Vanderpool who placed first in a local extemporaneous speaking contest on The Duties of a Citizen in a Democracyf' The student body and faculty are proud of these students who have brought honor on themselves and their school through their hard work and achievement, and espe- cially do they point with pride to their ever growing Philomathean and Ergon Kalon Honor Scholarship societies in which are found the real honor students of the school.

Esme Brown, Nathan Barragar, and George Stepp did much to bring honors to their class. Nor can the class oHicers and their class overlook the help and co-operation they received from their class teacher, Mrs. Nina Ferguson, who for four years helped to steer the class through many Shoals.

Beginning their high school career as freshmen in 1922 with Paul Eth- ridge as president, they had an eventful and successful year. Although they did not win the Freshman-Sophomore Hunt, they annexted first place in the Declamation Contest. From that year on by instituting a 'Treshman Day, the class showed their originality by launching some new feature. As sophomores they were victorious in the Hunt, in the Declamation Contest, took second place in the yell contest and first in the song contest. Armbands were the class' first insignia of distinction. The junior year was perhaps the most eventful even though the members did not start victoriously by winning the Flag Rush. However in both song and yell contest they were victorious. The next important event was the establishing of Junior Day on May 1 with Blanch Westlund as May Queen. That year the bulldog was chosen as the class emblem and used in the senior hat, ring, and commencement announcement. As seniors, with more important duties to attend to, the class did well to win the Flag Rush, place first in the song contest and second in the yell contest. Seven Keys to Baldpaten was said to be one of the best senior plays ever presented. The final de- cision in the annual junior-senior debate was made in favor of the juniors, although the senior debaters, Rita Harriman, Mildred Bowen, Milford Zornes, and Benjamin Ward, did excellent work. Again instituting a new feature, the class established Senior Book Day to take the place of the old Senior Tramp Day. Characters or titles of books were represented by the seniors who delighted their audience with a special assembly program introduced by Mrs. Ferguson. Now that the high school career for the class of 1926 is drawing to a close, the faculty and members of the student body are beginning to realize that the present sen- iors represent not only a good deal of talent but a school and a class spirit that the classes can well emulate. Many of the seniors will go to collegeg others will enter businessy but no matter where they may choose their future vocation, the members of '26 have vowed always to bring honor to their dear old San Fernando High School.

Heretofore the noble post graduates have not numbered enough to be a class by themselves, and have met with the Seniors, enjoying the privileges of this honored class to some extent. The roll call of the P, G. High and Mightiesn bears the names of the following persons, ably advised by Mrs. Mary Poore: Willard Park, the President, is a '24 graduate. He was president of his senior class and took the lead in their senior play, Golden Days. Betty Davis, the vice-president, is a '25 graduate of Los Angeles High which she attended for four years. She came to San Fernando in September and was a member of S. F. H. S. this one year. Emma Dennis, secretary-treasurer, a graduate of S. F. H. S. in '25, portrayed the lead, Judy,', in the senior play, Daddy-Long-Legs. Lewis Willman, another S. F. twenty-Ever, has been here four years and posted to Complete a fifth year before leaving us for good. Nellie Dickinson, a classmate graduate of Lewis and Emma, is also fulfilling her last year here. Charles Lawson, president of this year's Commercial Club, graduated from Topeka High School in 1917. Having come to San Fernando in 1925 he joined the ranks of the HP. G.,s Horace Allen was a worthy member of the P, G.'s in the fall term.

After an all-night vigil maintained by Miss Hendrick as monitor, Claire Rogers, James Johnson, Douglas Moore, and Robert Lawrence, the juniors won the Hrst student body drive by being the first to hand in their money. They also won the second drive, but unintentionally as they had alread acquired the winning habit. 'Mid shouts and cheers and multi-colored banners and ribbons the juniors were proclaimed winners of the yell contest. Considering the amount of practice and preparation the victory was justified. - Among the juniors' many achievements perhaps the most worthy was their monthly contribution of ten dollars for the founding of a scholarship fund. The annual junior May day celebration began with an excellent breakfast in the cafeteria. Mate Hovey, the Queen of May, was attended by Vivian Tilden and Jean Sanderson. The class wore costumes of rustic design. The day came to a close with a dance in the gymnasium. RICHARD BARROWS.

Manly maidens were proving that they were worthy of being wooed while boys captured other classmen's girls by manners or Fords. As is the custom the sophomores challenged the freshies to a hunt. The affair ended in a very enjoyable party in the gym given by the losers alias the frosh. In the month of December our class surprised the assembly by presenting our Collegiate Song. The decision broadcasted was that it was very good. Next on the program was the dance we gave the four upper classes and the alumni. We dec- orated the gym in our class colors, blue and white. The next great fete was the song contest. The sophomores for the first time wore their new armbands with the blue background, the white lion and the 28. Our song was set to the tune of The Parade of the Woodell Soldiers. To represent the idea two members of the class were costumed as soldiers. The class wore white and each one wore either a blue or a white cap. Thus gaily dressed we carried off second honors, permitting the seniors to take Hrst place. Under the guidance of our class teachers, hir. Clinton Smith, Miss E. Maye Stephens, Miss Frances Kirk, llflrs. Cora Reed, and lVIr. Titus Kinzie, we were able to win renown for ourselves.

M ARJORIE CARR arvin Pilcher, member of the senior class and winner of the Malin Award for 1926, gave the student body a memorable administration as president for 1925- 1926. Not only has he proved himself a leader but as president of the Philo- mathean Society, he ranks among the scholarly students of the school. Winning the national oratorical contest on the Constitution for the Valley, he maintained San Fer- nando's reputation as a hot-bed of orators by being the third to bring such honor to the school in four years. Under the inspiring influence of Mr. Harry Gross, principal, the student body has inaugurated this semester a student council with Marvin as prseident ex-ollicio and with home room representatives as counsellors. At present this council is a nucleus for student self-government, which will be establishetd next semester. The self-gov- ernment board has been formed and is doing successful work. The reason for its success is that the student members are backing up this organization and have hopes for improvement as the years go by. The council meets every Thursday to administer justice like any court. H The finances of the student body were taken care of by Merle Evans, treasurer, who was advised and guided most capably by Mrs. Amalie Lightner of the commercial department. Perhaps there is no other department in the school that has so much work and responsibility. Viola Kinder, the secretary, kept the student body meeting minutes for the entire year most elliciently. Vivian Tilden, song leader, and Jimmy Wheat, yell leader, assisted by James Johnson, contributed their share toward creating the right kind of school spirit. WVith the school year drawing to a close the oflicers and student body feel that the school under Mr. Gross has enjoyed a successful year and that everybody leaves school in June, 1926, ready to go on to higher institutions of learning or to come back in- spired for even a better year in 1926-1927.

ELIZABETH WOODSON he junior high school student body, though not very active this year, has devel- oped some good leaders. It is probable that the junior student body will be represented in the student council next year where they will be able to take a more active part in the organization work of the school. John Decker and Ethel Phillips did creditable work as student body presidents for the year. The rest of the othcers co-operated with the presidents in all the activ- ities that they undertook. At the beginning of the second semester the junior high school student body was moved from the science building to the library building, a change which has proved to be great help for the junior high school. Young Johnnie D. and Ethel P. Have led J. H. S. joyfully. With K. K. K., which stands you see For a fair miss who's K.

There are sixty-four active chapters in the State Federation of Girls' Leagues of which San Fernando is seventeenth with a seven year membership so far. This year under the inspiring influence of their adviser, Miss Minnie Tribby, and their capable president. Esme Brown, the local Girls' League have been very active. In October they gave a kids' party to the junior Leagueg donated S50 to the Ortho- pedic Hospitalg and gave an entertainment to the soldiers of the United States Veter- ans' Hospital. During the second week of May, which was set aside as Girls' Week, the girls took charge of the classes, prepared an interesting pay assembly, published a special edition of The Whirlu'ind, entertained their mothers at an afternoon tea, and gave a dance for the boys. junior Girls' League he Junior Girls' League was formed in 1922 for the purpose of promoting better understanding and better fellowship among the junior high school girls..

The welfare work which the junior League has done for the San Fernando Grammar School has taught them to do their bit in community service work. The Junior League gave a kid party in the gymnasium on April 29. At Christ- mas they donated a box of clothes valued at Hfty dollars to the San Fernando Grammar School. Amicitia Qlub ith a membership of one hundred and forty-seven the Amicitia Club is increas- ing in size each year and the boys are taking a greater interest. Organized to create a feeling of friendship among its members, as its Latin name indi- cates, this club embraces a larger membership than any boys' club in the school. During the last semester Howard Merrill has been acting president and as a leader has been very successful.

It is well to begin to form the habit of success by striving for membership in the Philomathean Society, which stands for success in school. The Philomathean Society is a member of the California Scholarship Federation, Chapter 32. Each year that Federation holds a meeting which is attended by repre- sentatives of the various members of the Federation. This year San Fernando was represented at the convention by Marvin Pilcher.

MARJORIE GILLMOR he Ergon Kalon, the honor scholarship society of the junior high school, was formed three years ago, but in that short time it has accomplished much more than its founders expected. These founders, Miss Lucile Valentine and Mr. Raymond Schoeffel, deserve a great deal of credit for the success of the society. The attitude of the society toward endeavor is that ability to think is the first step toward right thinking and that must precede right acting. If the citizens are educated, democracy will endure. The Ergon Kalon has been very active this year. In the fall the boys went on a fishing trip at the invitation of Mr. Schoeffel. Later they held a picnic in May's Canyon back of the Veterans' Hospital as guests of Virginia Radcliffe, daughter of Major W. H. Radcliffe, who took them on a tour of inspection through the hospital.

Harold Huston '22, who is now an honor student at the California Institute of Technology, suggested the name for the paper, which was printed by what was then known as the San Fernando Press. The following year found Elizabeth Wyatt QS. B. U. CJ as editor and Neal lVIiller CU. S. C. athletic instructorj as business man- ager, and in 1922-23 the publication was piloted by John Woodson lstanfordj with Karl Westlund as business manager. In 1923-24 there were two editors, Willianm Booth for the first semester and Horace Allen for the second. During this year The Whir!u'ind won second place in Class A in the school paper contest conducted by the Student Press Association of Southern California. In 1924-25 the paper was edited by Irene Langendorf with Esme Brown as business manager. This year's issue, like that of the previous year, was printed in eight pages and arranged in magazine form, each number having a cover of different color. The cost of publishing was borne by advertisements and by two benefits. This year, 1925-26, the staff has worked out several new ideas. The financing of a weekly in a school of this size is always a problem. This year The hfhirlwind was printed by Mr. Jack Ballenger of the Craftsman Press who procured the adver- tisements himself, keeping the proceeds as payment for printing the paper. A subscrip- tion charge of ten cents a semester was charged to cover any incidental expense. This plan dispensed with the need of having a business and advertising manager. The staff feels under obligation to Mr. Ballenger for his co-operation and help during this term and to Mrs. Evelyn Burgess Bryant who has been the faculty adviser since its incep- tion in 1920. ' The Whirlzciinrl was published this year, as it always has been, by the journalism class. The staff consisted of Mary Elizabeth Saxton and Mary Leach, associate edi- tors, Ruth Glass, literary editor f'Arthur Goodnow, joke editor, Frank Castle, sport editorg Jean Sanderson, departmentsg Dorothy Smith, clubs and organizations, Lowell Keyes and Herbert Frith, circulation managers. The reporters were Florence Hen- dershot, Naomi Lamkin, Harold LaViolette, Maybelle, Meacham, Dorothy Millen, Marian lVIiller, Delpha Perret, Gladys Thibadeau, Betty Davis, Carryl Gould and William Stonecypher. The paper, published weekly, was composed of four pages arranged in regular newspaper form. Each week a different member of the class was chosen as editor, so that each person published two editions during the year. At the beginning of the year Mrs. Bryant offered a prize of ten dollars to the editor who could edit the best issue. The judges gave Ruth Glass' issue No. 22 first place, Florence Hendershot's No. 5, second place, and Marian Miller's No. 11, third place. 55.2 1 THE ORANGE BLOSSOM Physical Science Club Sponsored by lVIrs.

All experiments of importance attempted by various students are brought to the attention of members. The Craft Club The Craft Club, sponsored by Mrs. Nina Ferguson, has proved very beneficial to its girl members. Their time is devoted to making lamp shades and favors of all kinds. Because so many girls wanted to join, the membership was limited to juniors and seniors. The Bluestockings The Bluestockingsn or Writers' Club, sponsored by Mrs. Evelyn Bryant and presided over by Mary Leach, has contributed some good literature to the schoolls Anthology of Prose and Poetry for 1925-26 which will be ready for the library next September. Aqo Oral English Clubs With Miss Ida M. Wilson as sponsor the A10 English classes organized three clubs, the Oral English Club, Oratores Anglici, and the Athenaeum. Every five weeks officers are elected to take charge of the Monday meetings. The electing of officers for only five weeks gives each member an opportunity to hold an office during the term. Every Monday a program is arranged by the three officers, approved by the sponsor, and announced for the following Monday. On the programs club members give talks, declamations, orations, stories, original poems, sections from Robert's Rules of Order, and current events. The aims of these clubs are to encourage the members to speak easily and effectively before audiences, to conduct club meetings properly, and to act as helpful critics.

The Tiger teams won two major championships in football and track, second place in basketball, and championships in both light- weight and Class C divisions in basketball. At the time that the Orange Blossom goes to press the baseball team has won three games in a schedule of five, and is well on its way to another championship. A new coach, john W. Hughes of U. S. C., was responsible for the excellent showing made by San Fernando's teams. Few coaches can point to such an accomplish- ment in their first year, and San Fernando is looking forward to future San Fernando teams coached by Mr. Hughes. Football , Starting with a team that was believed to be the worst in the Valley, Coach Hughes and Captain Nathan Barragar whipped together a fighting eleven that astounded every one by winning the league championship. In the preliminary game for the Southern California championship, San' Fernando played Covina, which later won the title, and lost by a large score. George Stepp at quarterback and Nathan Barragar at fullback were the individual stars of the season. Stepp was one of the most consistent scorers on the team, while Barragar's punting and line smashes played a leading part in the team's success. How- ard Merrill starred at halfback, running the ends with dazzling speed. On the line Franklyn Beyea, left tackle and captain, and Herbert Frith, center, were the best players. Others who contributed to the team's success were Jimmy Daly, Fred Asavis, and Dale Mills, ends, Eddie Thompson, tackle, Merle lllarkland, Lyle Poppelman and Joe Cascales, guards, Marvin Pilcher, tackle, Tommy Walker, centerg and Nathan Katz and Fred Elam, halfbacks. The players that made their letters in the Covina game were Henry Knight and Eldred Merrill, ends, Henry Benefiel, quarterback, and Waynes Harless and Joaquin Sanderson, halfbacks. The season's record: San Fernando 32-Owensmouth 12 Spectacular playing on the part of George Stepp and Nathan Barragar featured the first game which San Fernando won easily. George scored three touchdowns, Nathan one, and Fred Elam one. Spectacular passes brought San Fernando victory, with Barragar on the throwing and Stepp on the receiving end. Fine line playing by Thompson, Poppelman, and Cascales was a contributing cause for the victory. l71l THE ORANGE BLOSSOM San Fernando 6-Burbank 6 Burbank surprised every one by holding San Fernando to a tie in the second game. George Stepp made the only touchdown of the game for San Fernando, and his failure to add the extra point cost the game. Burbank scored on a fumble in the first half and played the rest of the game on the defensive. San Fernando 14-Van Nuys 12 In the biggest and most exciting game of the year San Fernando defeated Van Nuys by two points. A San Fernando victory was only a remote possibility before the game. After it they were hailed as the potential champions. George Stepp and Fred Asavis scored the touchdowns for San Fernando, both on forward passes, and both made the extra points. Every player on the team played perfect football, and the team was at the peak of its efficiency. San Fernando 27-Lancaster 0 The championship and the last game went to San Fernando by a big margin. The team had a field day at Lancasterls expense, and never once was it even in danger of being scored on. Barragar, Stepp, and Dale Mills made the San Fernando touch- downs. San Fernando 0-Covina 42 It was a sad ending for such a fine season, but the championship team ran rough- shod over San Fernando. The team was literally worn out, and as the loss counted for little, was not disappointed in the outcome. The feature of the game was the play- ing of the lightweight substitutes, who will form the nucleus of next year's champion- ship team. Lightweights The lightweights got away to a good start, defeating Owensmouth 28-0, and then flopped miserably, losing to Burbank 17-6, to Van Nuys 7-6, and to Lancaster. The leading players were Henry Knight, Clyde Poppelman, Warren Wisler, Marion Nelson, Norman Glass, Victor Elwood, Henry Benefiel, Eldred Merrill, Al- vah Wright, Channing Peake, Merrill Hocker, James Wheat, Bennett Tilden, Albert Cocciante, and Robert Lawrence. Joaquin Sanderson coached the lightweights, and Walter Scott was the manager. Three lightweight players, Eldred Merrill, Henry Knight, and Henry, Benefiel, received heavyweight letters for playing in the Covina game. l72l THE ORANGE BLOSSOM ,J 5 4 22 wi Aki -naw?-Q .Mazza mms, ai. 2jIj'gi.T.i..-f..,....n.Y,.,nrgi:il.pQllQ!. .vwif-LJ k . -.

A TEAM George Stepp was captain of the team and the most consistent scorer, playing for- ward. Paired with him at the same position was Alfred Asavis. The guards were Nathan Barragar,'Claire Rogers, and Tommy Walker, and the centers, Lowell Keyes and Frank Beyea. The team was well balanced, and but for the Van Nuys game had little trouble defeating its opponents. The first game was with Owensmouth. San Fernando won easily, 21-5. Against Burbank it won 15-14 in a thrilling contest that was won only in the last minute of play. Van Nuys won the next game, 32-9, and in the finale San Fernando won from Lancaster, 22-8. C B TEAM The B team won the league championship and also won the George Dewey Schelling cup, which will be awarded each year hereafter to the San Fernando basket- ball team making the best record.

The team was generally conceded to be the best in the Valley. Only two dual meets, were held, one with Fairfax High School, which San Fernando lost 55M to 5314, and the other with Van Nuys which San Fernando Won by a lopsided score of 68 to 18. The team was made up of individual stars, and trophies in the form of silver loving cups were presented at the end of the year for the best record made in each event for the season. The cups were presented as follows: Pole vault, Marvin Pilcherg 880 yard run, Benjamin Ward, mile run, Milford Zornesg high jump, How- ard Merrill, 100 yard dash, Eddie Thompson, shot put, Lyle Poppelmang 440 yard dash, Franklyn Beyea, broad jump, Alfred Asavis, 220 yard dash, Dale Mills, high hurdles, Channing Peake, and low hurdles, Claire Rogers. Besides these men, the tracksters that brought San Fernando its championship were Lowell Keyes, high jump, George Stepp, 440, Jack Moore, high jump, Warren Wisler, pole vault, Dayton Caldwell, broad jump, Nathan Katz, 220 and 100, James Johnson, 100, Ernest Lindholm, mile, Demetrio Velasco, 880, Henry Benefiel, 440, Roy Bowman, 440, Thomas Walker, high hurdles, Roland Dill, 880, Alvah Wright, mile, George Lafkas and Nick Lafkas, shot put, Ed Walther, 880, and Albert Cocciante, broad jump. Colton High won the Invitational with 19M points. El Monte was second with 18, Oxnard made 1624, and Harvard 15. Twenty-four high schools and 291 athletes were entered, and while no records were broken, the meet was a success. San Fernando scored IM points, lllarvin Pilcher in the pole vault and Ben Ward in the 880 placing for the school. San Fernando won the Valley meet with a total of 62 points. Burbank scored 37 points, Van Nuys 17, and Lancaster 8. While San Fernando did not win high point honors, that going to Martin of Van Nuys, it won six first places. Ben Ward in the 880, Peake in the high hurdles, Zornes in the mile, Poppelman in the shot put, Asavis in the broad jump, and Pilcher in the pole vault were the first place winners. Marvin Pilcher made a new Valley record when he pole vaulted 11 feet 7 inches. Six of the trophy winners will be back next year, and if present indications are any criterion, the track team of 1927 will be even better than that of 1926. Baseball ith zz team composed almost entirely of lettermen, the nine seemed almost sure to win the championship. E Eddie Thompson captained the team and played left field. Eddie proved his worth in the early games when he led the team in hitting. George Stepp pitched and furnished some spectacular plays. Nathan Barragar in center field and l 7 7 l THE ORANGE BLOSSOM FTT Roland Russell, catcher, shared slugging honors. Walter Scott played a good game at short stop. Alfred Asavis at third base, Demetrio Velasco at second and Claire Rogers at first rounded out the infield. Billy Neale, Clyde Poppelman, and Albert Cocciante alternated in right field. Jimmy Johnson served as relief pitcher, and Ernest Lindholm and joe Cascales were the sub catchers. Orville Kindig and Jimmy Daly were sub infielders. Jimmy Shaug was the manager. Nearly every man on the team will be back next year. The entire infield will remain intact and the only regulars to be graduated will be Russell, Stepp, Barragar, and Th0mpS0r'l. The regord for the year: San Fernando 16-Owensmouth 9 San Fernando had little trouble winning from Owensmouth. George Stepp pitched five innings and struck out ten men. But for one wild inning when Owens- mouth scored five runs, the game was all San Fernando's. r San Fernando 2-Burbank 1 San Fernando defeated its most dangerous opponent in the second game in an eleven inning game that was a classic. Stellar work on the part of every man on the team was all that won the game. George Stepp was given splendid support and fanned nine men. San Fernando 11-Van Nuys 10 The third game was a thriller, with San Fernando barely managing to win. Costly blunders almost lost the game, but ability to hit meant victory. George Stepp pitched the game with his eyes badly burned with acid. Despite this he struck out nine men and led the team in hitting. Nathan Barragar and Roland Russell both made home runs. San Fernando 4--Lancaster 5 The weakest team in the League won a surprise victory, and an off-day and a weakened team meant the loss of the game. This caused a tangle and the League Championship had not been decided up to the time of writing, although it seemed to be rightfully San Fernando's. Tennis he boys' tennis teams, sponsored by William T. Sterling, comprised two teams, the A and B. The membership of team A was as follows: Price Westman, John Cascales, Nick Lafkas, George Lafkas, Keith Nelson, and Charles Clowerg that of B team, Robert Lawrence, Wesley Dunn, George Holsten, Alvah Wright, Allyn Clampitt, and Louis Izeckman. ' Although the teams did not make reputations for themselves in the Valley League, each member received a letter and played well in the school tournaments.

THE ORANGE BLOSSOM jokes DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE IN S. F. H. S. November 16, 1925. The unanimous declaration of the three original U. S. history classes of the S. F. H. S. When in the course of current events it becomes necessary for a history class to dissolve the bands which have connected them with their teacher, a decent respect for their opinions of him requires that they declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that they are endowed by their programs with certain inalienable subjects among which are chemistry, algebra, and the pursuit of Spanish: that to secure good grades in these subjects we must give them as much attention as we do our history or else our grades will perish. To prove this let facts be candidly submitted to the world: He has refused to give us A's, the most wholesome and necessary to our good' reputations. He has erected a multitude of new tests to harrass the students when they should be getting other lessons. A He has given us, in time of other studies, current events which we must bet every Monday. He has quartered large bodies of E's on our weekly average. He has imposed tests on us without our consent. He has deprived us, in many cases, of the benefit of having our books open during tests. - In every stage of the oppressions we have petitioned for redress in most humble terms. Our repeated petitions have been answered only by more tests. We, therefore, students of the three original U. S. history classes declare that we need and of right ought to have a little less history. OUR HISTORY OUTLINE l. Remote causes for quitting school: A. Too many girls. B. S. B. dues too high. C.

THE ORANGE BLOSSOM 'I' A Byword in Many a Home VERY one in the San Fernando Valley is familiar with the name Mercantile It is a byword in many a home. The reputation for dependability now enjoyed by the San Fer- nando Mercantile has come only after years of good service and hard work- Mr. C. W. Judy, one of the owners, has had an affiliation with this store since '92. He was born and brought up in West Virginia, moving to San Fernando in '87. Mr. J. H. Jenifer, however, is a native of the San Fernando Valley. Mr. G. W. Bates, an immigrant from Nebraska, has lived in this Valley for about thirty years. Mr. E. P. Rose, the fourth partner, came to this Valley in '87 and has been enjoying residence here since that time. Although the store has been incorporated under the name of The San Fernando Mercantile Co., for only fifteen years, it was formerly in existence under the names of Judy and Jenifer, Groceries, and Rose and Bates, Dry Goods and Shoes. The four partners can remember the good old days when San Fernando consisted of one store, one drug store, the Pico Hotel, one livery stable, one lumber yard and seven saloons, when the streets in places were thirty inches lower than they are now. These four citizens all helped to build the high school by voting bonds, and you can ask them whether or not they had a hard time fighting the opposition. The San Fernando Mercantile, which after all spells quality, endeavors to serve the public and its children who will soon make up the citizenry of the community. Track and gymnasium clothes are sold to the students in addition to a complete line of merchandise, ladies' and men's notions, and shoes. In the grocery department can be found the best of groceries, vegetables, hardware, paints, and oils. The vegetables and groceries that supply our high school cafeteria are highly recommended by both faculty and students. Three of the four partners have sons who have attended San Fernando High School or who are student body members at present. Wilton Bates, '24, business manager of the Orange Blosmm of l924g Paul Bates, '26, oflicial typist of this annualg Robert Bates, '28, and Donald Bates, 32, Grover Judy, '30, and James Jenifer, who attended this high school in 1922, have helped and are still helping to make San Fernando High School a bigger and a better School.-D.

This haberdasher is usually several jumps ahead of the season in showing the latest .thing in men's clothing. For instance spring suits and accessories were being displayed early in January. It may be of interest to the student body to know that Mr. Keeley employs a former graduate of the high school, who has been with him since his graduation. Mr. Keeley has always been a sincere friend of the San Fernando High School students, having lent them gratis accessories which have aided them in the presentation of their plays. JACK KEELEY E83 l 'THE ORANGE BLOSSOM Our Official Photographer A. S. MOORE, the official photographer for the Orange Blossom, entered the profession of photo- graphy at the age of eighteen in Hutchinson. Kansas. Since then he has had studios in Salina, Kansas. , Nickerson, Kansasg and Tekamah, Nebraska. Mr. Moore handled all the school work of the Reno Coun- ty High School for six years when he was in Nicker- son, Kansas. In April, 1921, Mr. Moore came to San Fernando, moving into his present location at 911 Celis Street in the Porter Hotel building, across the street from the Cody Theatre. During his five years in this town he has done a great deal of photographic work, indivi- dual and groups. He has made such a reputation for himself that he is known as the oflicial photographer of the town as well as of the high school. This year Mr. Moore has done all the photographic work for the 1926 Orange Blossom including large individual photographs, class groups, play groups, athletic teams, stamp pictures, and the art panels for the title pages. The students and the year-book staff have been well pleased with the Moore Studio this year and heartily recommend that all future staffs turn to Mr- Moore, our local citizen, who can give better prices and do more painstaking work than any hurried out- side bidder.-N.

Specializing in high school and college trade, he was located where he had a large patronage of high school and University of Southern California students. In order to bring better merchandise to San Fernando Mr. Routh left Los Angeles to establish for himself a shoe shop in this town. Mr. Routh's patrons feel satisfied that he has accomplished his mission. But he has done much more than bring with him better styles and merchandiseg he has also introduced startlingly low prices. Lou Routh is one of San Fernand0's prominent young business men, who plans to serve the high school and the community all he can. Having a wide acquaintance with college men and familiar with the tastes and the whims of the youthful, Mr. Routh can ably and satisfactorily supply any of the footgear needs of the San Fernando High School boys, girls and teachers. No where in the Valley can a neater and at the same time, more fashionable shop be found. The artistic window displays have attracted a great deal of attention, and many a high school boy and girl has a better and firmer understanding for having patronized Routh's Fashion Bootery. Now that june and commencement time are drawing near, are there any of the high school girls looking for those attractive blonde kid pumps and strapped shoes for their class night and baccalaureate programs, or lovely white kid shoes for commencement night when they will sit on the stage and be the center of attraction? Then come to Routh's Bootery where you will find any kind of shoe that you may want. They are all styles, the very latest, for the senior boy who may want a black pair of commencement to wear with that dark blue suit and a sporty pair of oxfords for class night. Lou Routh has all kinds and can suit all tastes. Ask anybody who has purchased a pair of shoes from the Bootery and he or she will assure you as to the quality of the goods Lou Routh puts out, at very low prices- All Mr. Routh asks is that you give him a chance to prove these facts to you.-H.

Situated on one of the best corners in town, the store has already drawn a patronage that it deserves because of its genial, young owner and its excellent stock of goods. Among the supplies that would especially appeal to high school students are the Eastman kodaks and films with a first-class and prompt developing and printing service. Now that school days are drawing to a close this is the season for kodak pictures. Do you have that last picture of the class of '26 who will no longer be with us? And then there is the candy department in the Mission Pharmacy where Mr. Schelling sells not only all kinds of delicious bar and bulk candies but also Whitman's boxed chocolates, one of the highest grades of chocolates in the country. After school the soda fountain is a rendezvous for students who are on their way to town. Since it is so near the school, Mr. Schelling would like to make the Mission Pharmacy headquarters for students, where tickets can be sold and advertising matter distributed. In June, parents and friends are hunting for graduation gifts. With almost 60 students graduating there will be many gifts to buy. The Mission Pharmacy has a stock of high-class toilet articles and imported perfumes, delightful gifts for any girl, kodak albums, these new fountain pens in colors, and beautiful stationery. A box of writing paper always makes an acceptable gift. No where will prescriptions be more carefully compounded than by the two licensed pharmacists, Mr. Schelling himself and W. R. Bryant. Mr. Schelling won the hearts of the students this year when he gave a handsome silver loving cup as a permanent basketball trophy to go to the basketball team in the school that won the greatest number of games during the season. This year the B team with Henry Knight as captain received the cup and will hold it until next year. Learn to think of the Mission Pharmacy as the headquarters for high school students, a place where they will always receive a warm welcome.

That is the record of the H. H. Dace Store. Mr. Dace started in business in 1916. In 1921 be moved his establishment to its present location at the corner of Porter and Maclay. The business has been built on a strictly cash foundation. The success of the Dace policy may be easily seen in the store's large annual business. A unique feature of Dace's is the specialization in well known brands of dry-goods. Their superiority over unknown merchandise has been proved. Munsing underwear and Phoenix hos- iery lead in the better known lines as do the Kayser gloves and the A.B.C. silks. H. H. Dace, proprietor of the Dace Store and now president of the local Chamber of Com- merce, is a prime mover in the Greater San Fernando Valley Association, an organization formed for the purpose of developing the resources of the Valley. Realizing that a community will grow only when buoyed by the enthusiasm of its own local business men and citizens, Mr. Dace has contributed a great deal in personal time and service to the advertising and effective boosting of the town and the Valley.-J.

After many successful years in the East, he came to San Fernando about seven years and engaged in the same line of endeavor. He invested heavily in San Fernando property and has built several of the largest buildings here. Mr. Poppelman is a director of the Chamber of Commerce and of the Greater San Fernando Valley Association and is a sincere booster for this community. F. J.

He is a director of the Greater San Fernando Valley Association and a member of its flood control and commercial affairs committee. A director of the Associated Chamber of Commerce and a mem- ber of the finance committee, he owns considerable proprty here. He was one of the organizers of the local Kiwanis Club, serving as its president in the second year. Mr. Hendershot's energy has been a prominent factor in the development of San Fernando. Walton Collins, president of the Kiwanis Club, has charge of the building program of this organization. ' The sterling quality of Walt and the merit of his Collins Built homes is well known throughout the Valley. Dr. C. K. Douglas, for several years connected with the U. S.

The initiative that he has shown, the high sense of honor in all business dealings, the progressiveness, and the courtesy and friendliness-all point to the fact that Morris is a young man of unusual business ability. He is in the business primarily to give service to the public and the high school, and to earn for himself a valuable business reputation by dint of honesty and mental ability. The Model Boot Shop, 903 Porter Avenue, San Fernando, was established by Morris Katz on May 5, 1925. It is an up-to-date establishment, showing to great advantage the success of modern business methods. Established upon a strictly cash basis, an attractive shop, it is rapidly taking its place among the best and most progressive stores. The standard of such a concern is service in the matter of excellent quality, fashionable and moderately priced footwear. The cosy interior of the shop with its plate glass and mahogany store front attractively arranged with the style of footwear in vogue, in both the masculine and feminine modes, has a pleasing effect upon the public. School trade has been a prominent factor in the progress of the shop, says Morris. Students have taken an interest and pride in the success of one who graduated from their own high school, and they show it by patronizing The Model Boot Shop.

E301 THE ORANGE BLOSSOM The Life Force Within Q4 N EVERY seed there is a something that knows how to take from its environment the wherewithal to build the body of the organism it animates. From the little seed you plant in the ground, this .something sends roots into the earth, blades or branches into the air, and takes from the earth and the air that with which it builds. Within the egg this something is wooed to life by the warmth of the brooding mother's breast. Chiropractic teaches that this something knows the secret of converting food into Hesh and blood, and carries on all the processes of life in the human body by means of nerves. It teaches that when the nerve is impaired by a vertebra's becoming misaligned, these impulses do not How over the nerves normally, and the result is what we call disease. To get the dis- eased member to function again, it is necessary to adjust the vertebra that is pressing on the nerve, the normal alignment, thereby permitting the normal flow of impulses over the nerve. To adjust the vertebra to normal alignment is the work of a competent chiropractor. For a skillful and intelligent application of the principles of chiropractic, see Dr. J. H. Kienke, chiropractor, who has been practicing in San Fernando for more than four years and in this time has developed an enviable reputation for eflicient, dependable service- He is a graduate of the largest chiropractic school in the world, the Palmer School of Chiro- practic in Davenport, Iowa. Dr. Kienke uses the neurocolometer, an instrument which detects nerve pressure and shows the location requiring adjustment. just recently he completed a course of instruction in the Spears Painless System of adjusting which makes chiropractic adjustments ont only painless but much more effective than formerly. This system is the very latest. Dr. Kienke's ol'l'ice is located at 1038 Porter Ave., San Fernando, and his phone number is Blue 87. Kwality - Cervice NE of the oldest lumber companies in Los Angeles was founded in 1874 by William G. Kerchoif and James Cuzner. The first yard was built on the corner of Alameda and Macy Streets, Los Angeles, and today the original yard is operating to capacity. The next yard was built in Pasadena and is still doing a flourishing business. Other yards were started in Pomona and in various neighboring towns. At present in California there are sixteen Kerchoff-Cuzner lumber yards. The main oiiice of the company is at Sixth and Main Streets, Los Angeles. It is interesting to know that this site was the home of Mr. Cuzner in days of old. The San Fernando yard of Kerchoff-Cuzner was started in 1921 with Mr. R. E. Gilson as manager. In Sept., 1922, Mr. H. C. Clampitt took Mr. Gilson's place. Mr. Clampitt traveled from Oaklahoma and Texas to Washington where he spent five years in the lumber business. He later moved to Imperial Valley, where he was connected with this lumber company for five years. Moving southward, Mr. Clampitt thought San Fernando looked pretty good to himg so he settled here, and now he says he has no kick acomin' is very well satisfied with the town. Mr. Clampitt is interested in our high school and its development. As adviser for the local chapter of De Molay to which a number of our alumni and undergraduate belong, he is especially well known among the boys. Kerchoff-Cuzner has a very appropriate motto: Kwality-Cerviee. The purpose of all con- nected with the lumber company is to serve the public, and as you all know, the lumber com- pany is doing its best to build up San Fernando--D. P. H. C.

VALLEY INVESTMENT COMPANY Phone Green 33 205 South Brand Boulevard Insurance We Sell Real Estate l88l THE ORANGE BLOSSOM A Complete Line of Home Furnishings N THE corner of Maclay and Second Streets is a store filled with just the furniture you would like to see in your own home. This establishment is owned by Harry and Sidney Waite, both alumni of our high school, class of 1904. In December, 1922, these two brothers purchased the furniture store of Will G. Noble, the oldest store in the San Fernando Valley, As the town and Valley have grown and become more densely populated, these business men have increased their stock. Now they have a complete line of home furnishing. They keep a fine quality of merchandise and sell at a very reasonable margin of profit. The latest addition to their stock is the Premier Gas Range, a superior stove sold at a mod- erate price. Any housewife will deem herself fortunate when she buys one. The Waite brothers are well known throughout the San Fernando Valley as enthusiastic well- wishers. With all their customers they are courteous and painstaking, taking a personal interest in each piece of furniture that they sell. Out of town people have learned that they can buy to an advantage in this dependable store, and they come habitually to the Waite Bros. when furnishing their homes or hanging their window shades. Ever since Harry and Sidney Waite have been in business, they have shown a generous attitude toward the high school, lending furniture and bric-a-brac for plays and programs. Such interest in the school is deeply appreciated by both students and teachers, who feel a personal interest in these alumni and their excellent stock of furniture.-R. G. WAITE BROS. FURNITURE COMPANY A Model Barber Shop Mr. Arthur Bashe, the proprietor of the Porter Hotel Barber Shop, located in the Porter Hotel facing Brand Blvd., came to San Fernando about ten years ago. At that time San Fernando was merely a place in the road. When Mr. Bashe first came to the town, he was indirectly interested in it, living at the Porter Hotel part of the time and in Los Angeles the rest of the time. Two years ago he took over the Porter Hotel Barbar Shop and moved to San Fernando permanently- In addition to the barber shop there is a cigar stand, a shoe shinning and magazine stand at the entrance to the shop. When Mr. Bashe first took over the shop there were only two barbers with an extra one on Saturdays. Three barbers are now regularly employed and Mr. Bashe is planning to add to his force in a short time. Ladies hair cutting is the specialty of this shop. Both George Sidey and jim Hodges, ex- perienced barbers, have won many customers among the high school girls and the women members of the faculty. Since both men are artists in their line and will always go out of their way to please their patrons, their clientele is steadily increasing. Mr. Bashe has added over eight hundred dollars worth of improvements since he took over the shop. Besides installing more chairs and electrical equipment, he has added beauty mirrors, the first to be used in San Fernando. These mirrors make it possible for the customer to see the back and front of her hair cut at the same time. There is a mirror in the front and one in the back, both connected by a rod, which may be pulled down over the chair. The Porter Hotel Barber Shop is certainly an indication of San Fernando's growth, for it is not only the best equipped barber shop in the Valley but as good as any in Los Angeles. With the first-class barbers that it has, it is certainly a credit to the town of San Fernando.-D. S. THE PORTER HOTEL BARBER SHOP E891 'THE ORANGE BLOSSOM Imported Japanese Goods HE SUNLITE COMPANY was first started by Mr. Motoike in 1914, he having first arrived in San Fernando in 1907. Mr. Motoike successfully operated the small store alone and was doing a very good business when he decided that he was in need of a partner to help him in his thriving business. In 1919 Mr. G. Miyake joined him in his business as a partner. They former a co-partnership and called it the Sunlite Company to be managed by these gentlemen. From a small beginning the Sunlite Company has gradually grown to the largest store of its kind in the valley. This store carries the largest stock of imported Japanese goods in San Fernando Valley. Try their japanese Green Tea which comes directly from the Flowery Kingdom sealed in a beautiful container and if you have never tasted any of this delicious tea, then certainly you have a pleasant surprise in store for you. The Sunlite Company are also importers of japanese canned goods, such as bamboo sprouts, mushrooms, bean sprouts, abalone, fried fish cakes, chop suey sauce, crab meats, dainty cakes made from rice, baskets, kimonas, hand painted china and countless other grades and kinds of Japanese goods.

Unknown though he was when he first came to town, in five years' time Mr. Schelling has developed a business that attracts the patronage of not only the town and the Valley, but of many of the transients who pass through the community on their way to different parts of the state. The popularity of the San Fernando Pharmacy is the result of its giving the best kind of efficient and immediate service to the patrons. Not a small part of the business comes directly from the high school students and their parents who have already learned that Mr. Schelling and his employes will not only give them courteous attention but will likewise be able, by reason of their large stock, to meet the needs of all customers, young and old. Having one of the largest and finest fountains in town, the San Fernando Pharmacy is able to serve lunches, ice cream, and hot and cold drinks. Because candies, boxed and in bulk, of the highest grade are sold continually and in large quantities, the stock is kept ever fresh and varied. All kinds of school supplies, note-books, fountain pens, stationery of the best grade, and inks are sold to the students and business men. Graduation gifts may be selected from the big supply of kodaks, perfumes, ivory sets, etc. Now that Commencement is only a few days off, every senior in the high school should have a graduation book in which he or she can keep a record of school day memories and school friends. In the San Fernando Pharmacy you will find the best assortment of graduation books and memory books that you will find anywhere. What would make a more appropriate gift than a memory book? One of the present employes of the store, Chester Taylor, is a graduate of the San Fernando High School, class of 1920.

L. Nine Years of Progress PICTURE of San Fernando, taken nine years ago, would not be recognized by a large number of our citizens as the friendly San Fernando of today. Modern homes now abound where once brush, weed, and briar held full sway. The business section of our city has also experienced many changes in the period of nine years. Three doctors, two realtors, two plumbers, one jeweler, a dry-goods merchant, druggist, general merchant, undertaker, and an auto dealer together with one hardware establishment are all that can be claimed as old timers and under the same management. The San Fernando Hardware is the outgrowth of The Davenport Implement Company, owned by P. L. Lopez, W. B. Folger and L. M. Davenport. This company was established primarily as an implement house, as the name suggests, with hardware as a side line. Grain ranchers for miles around our city procured their farm implements here. The Davenport Im- plement Company passed out of existence upon the establishment of The San Fernando Hard- ware Company nine years ago. The San Fernando Hardware Company has grown since that time from a 55,000 stock with two to handle all the work Qfrom sweeping the walks to banking the proceeds of their effortsl to an active crew of seven, who are eager and ready to serve you from the largest stock of hardware ever carried in our town. The stock embraces Pipe, Paint, Glass, Fencing, Stoves, Regrigerators, Wash Machines together with Farm Implements of the early day and the Radio of modern times. SAN FERNANDO HARDWARE CO. D. E.

At that time the store was located in the old San Fernando Hotel on Porter Avenue, occupying very cramped quarters. Today it is located in its store building at 107 North lilaclay Avenue, and a branch store is located in Newhall, showing the extent to which the business has pros- pered since its inception. The proprietors attribute this entirely to the generous pa- tronage of the people of San Fernando, especially of the high school students and their parents. Starting with a stock composed of Army surplus goods, the store has added the better known brands of dry goods until today it carries a complete stock of men's and boys' furnishings, shoes, hats, and clothing, and also a complete line of campers' goods, hunting supplies and athletic equipment.

It was with regret that the school learned of lkir. Malin's departure in January, 1926. Mr. H. Muller succeeded Mr. Malin as local manager of the Bank of tlaly.

The onward course of this chain has been minutely observed because of the fact that it is organized on a basis that is unique in the annals of mercantile pursuit. In occupying its new, modern 18-story building in the heart of New York it reaches an event in its history of signal and lasting' importanc.
