' The dashing romance of exploring and inhabiting a new country and the pitiless drudgery of the untold hardships-these two elements balanced one against the other in the eyes of the aspiring pioneers, but romance proved itself victorious. Long trains of settlers moved toward the Pacific coast with the gleaming star of Hope leading them ever onward in spite of discouragement. Nature seemed to have set them apart from other men, making them the vanguard of the long, transcontinental march of immigration's endless army. Then came the dawn of the era when they attained their goal, and a new country was born. To these spirited and adventurous individuals who first inhabited our golden state of California do we, the students of the Santa Rosa High School, sincerely dedicate this book. Realizing and appreciating the value of men and women who challenged and con-quered a country humanly desolate except for the Indians, we pay due respect to the pioneers of California, and especially to those who founded Sonoma County and our own city of Santa Rosa. Every student has formed within his mind an imaginative picture of the pioneer and the life of the pioneer. His admiration grows quite naturally from pondering over those fireside tales of his California ancestors and from a desire to make a reality of their ambitious dreams. It would seem quite natural at this time to turn our thoughts to those pioneers who first settled in the vicinity where the fair city of Santa Rosa is now located. 1930 6 l , -. ,:g.K..,f ' !r:? ifgf.'5v,.N, ,, .V 7 ' L:-,,. ml. sffw ,,k5'Ifr .J 1,3-,. 5, f'.. . oED1cAT1oN . Perhaps one of the most romantic figures in the history of Santa Rosa is that of Juan Amoroso who, we remember, was one of those missionaries who would dare anything for the sake of the Cross. In 1829 he made an excursion northward from his Mission at San Rafael, doubtless in search of someone whom he might enlighten with the Christian faith. He came to the territory of the Cainemeros tribe of Indians who resided on the river of Chocoalomi, the Indian name for what is now our familiar Santa Rosa Creek. A short distance from this stream he captured an Indian girl, baptized her, and gave her the name of Santa Rosa. He chose this name for her because on that very day the Church was celebrating the feast of Santa Rosa de Lima. He made a hasty retreat and narrowly escaped when he was attacked by natives. Later, after the city had been founded, many other sturdy pioneers carried on the work those who had crossed plain and mountain in the covered wagons began. Names which will ever live in the hearts of those who love Santa Rosa include McDonald, Mallagh, Meacham, Hoen, Goldfish, Hahman, Barney, Wise, Hartman, john Ball, julio Carrillo, John Fremont, and countless others. May they have passed on to us, their descendants, the same primitive fires of progress-Courage and Adventure. 7 1930 b, A IN MEMORIAM FACULTY MR.

' be , IN MEMORIAM Q' , rf 53:45 , P -.ive ' ANTA ROSA PIONEERS juan Amoroso, that fearless missionary, in 1829, journeyed northward and baptized the Indian maiden Santa Rosa, and although driven away by natives, gave the name to this city. General Vallejo, as Ensign Vallejo, held the pueblo near Mark West Creek for some time with but a small group of soldiers, and planned the city of Sonoma, the first city to be planned and completed north of the San Francisco bay. He established permanently the military command of the northern frontier of California. To julio Carrillo a large tract of land, including the present site of Santa Rosa and the area between Santa Rosa and Sebastopol, was granted during the Spanish regime, and he granted what remained of his property at the time of laying out of the township to the town of Santa Rosa. Mark West, that intrepid pioneer, who had been an English sailor, is described as a tall man of commanding presence, mild in manner and kind to a fault. His death in 1849 was the first in Sonoma county. And all those others who, by their combined and less spectacular efforts, suc- ceeded in laying the foundation of the Santa Rosa which we now know. 9 1930 It is fascinating to look back into the dim and misty past and picture Galvez and Fra junipero Serra planning and dreaming of one of the most fateful enterprises in the history of human endeavor. As they sat in Galvez's tent in the camp at La Paz, they had before them the map of the coast of California, preserved from the immortal voyage of Sebastian Vizcaino, made in the year 1602, one hundred and sixty-six years before. After much preparation and repairing of ships, Galvez selected the sites on the coast as shown by Vizcaino's map, at which the first three Missions in California were to be erected. These were as follows: the first at San Diego, the second at Monterey, and the third between the two, to be known as San Buenaventura. It was from this site that Portola set out on his search for Monterey. The expedition was absent on its great quest for a period of eight months, it returned to San Diego early in March, 1770, sadly the worse for the hard experience which it had undergone. The men had been buoyed up only by the hope that they would find cheering news upon their return to San Diego. But they were terribly disappointed. During the eight months of their absence, Father Junipero had accomplished practically nothing more than the ceremonious foundation of the first Mission. There had been a great deal of sickness, and the new Mission establishment was on the verge of starvation. But the situation had one indomitable soul still to reckon with. junipero Serra could not give up, he would go to God for help and pray to Him for succor from across the blue waves. On the morning of that last day he climbed to the topmost pinnacle of Presidio Hill and prayed for succor for San Diego. As the sun went down, he caught sight of a sail-a ghostly sail, it seemed, in the far distance. Who can ever look above the old Presidio without seeing Father Serra on his knees pouring out his prayer of thanksgiving? Thus was wrought what is called a miracle, and by what better name shall one call it? Did not junipero Serra ask for another day, and did not the day bring the ship to starving San Diego? And what does that day mean to California and the world? It means that, had it never been, the wonderful Franciscan Missions of California, of which San Diego was the first, would have never risen, to stand, as they do today, in ruin, but still the most priceless heritage of the commonweath. 5 1 f i ADMINISTRATION I JEROME O. CROSS J. J. BURKE City Sfzperintendent of Stboolf Prefident of Board of Education Mr. Burke's Message to the Student Body The Student Body of the Santa Rosa High School comes from a wide range of territory, since the district is composed of the city of Santa Rosa and twenty-five rural school districts. The high school is a part of the city school system in which all the types of schools must co-operate with each other. As President of the Board, which is composed of Mr. George Proctor, Mr. Roe M. Barrett, Mr. Archie Lockhart, and Mrs. Sara Pryor, I believe in securing teachers with the highest professional training possible. Of the forty-four teachers in the high school faculty, fifteen devote their entire attention to vocational training. I believe in the theory that education is life, and that Santa Rosa High School should train its pupils to face the problems that are found here and now in Sonoma County. .-ftT....,.-,..A.,.. ,, .. ,, , , .., ,. o, Ts-, .--ans .. k.,.....1,.,1..,.r:.....t,...t.,..-,... . .. ..,..,.-., ,..,...,., ......, . ., .. y ,. ..,, 1930 12 t :'Tf1 ,A .fd -1,5'f 'Q' ff?

PATCHETT Principal Vice-Principal Mr. Spring's Message to the Seniors As I write these words of farewell to the Class of 1930, there comes the news that Lindbergh has established a new record by crossing the continent in fourteen hours and forty-five minutes. It is a great accomplishment to add to the list of achievements already won by him. When warned of unsettled atmospheric condi- tions, he said, We expect to fly high enough to miss the storms. You graduates, like Lindbergh, have already made certain achievementsg now look forward to others. It is my hope that every member of this year's class will continue his educa- tion into higher realms, soaring above the commonplace and the mediocreg and, in doing so, I trust that each one of you may be saved from being buffered by many of life's storms. 13 1930 ECHO I 1 v FAC U LTY During the past year fourteen new members have been added to the faculty of the Santa Rosa High School. They are: Miss Lorabelle King, Miss jennette Ufkess, Mrs. W. C. Van Rensselaer, Miss Florence Tangney, Mrs. Edna F. Smith, Miss Eugenia Watson, Miss Frances McCanse, Miss Margaret Swett, Miss Pauline Petit, Miss Martha E. Erwin, Mr. Henry Karpenstein, Mr. Vern Hickey, Mr. Marvin C. Holman, and Mr. Dale Walfron. Among the several activities the faculty enjoyed during the year were three informal parties. The first one was held in the home of Mrs. Martin on the evening of October 11, the second one was held at the Santa Rosa Golf and Country Club on the evening of December 11, and the third one, at the Guild Hall in Santa Rosa during the latter part of February. Dancing, whist, and bridge were enjoyed by everyone. The athletic department of our school has progressed very materially this year with the completion of the new gymnasium and the addition of two athletic in- structors to the faculty, Miss Frances McCanse and Mr. Vern Hickey. The debating class, under the able direction of Mr. Henry Karpenstein, has carried on the splendid work of Miss Catherine Fields, who is now teaching in the Junior College. In the English department Miss Watson and Miss Erwin have been of untold value, and to Miss Watson many thanks and congratulations are due for her splendid work on the Santa Rosan and the Echo. The Science department has been fortunate this year in having Miss Tangney and Mrs. Smith added to the faculty. When news came last October of the death of one of the shop mem- bers, Mr. Keyser, it was a shock to the school and the community. He was always well liked among the students of the school and especially among the boys from the shop. We were very fortunate, however, in having a man like Mr. Holman step in and fill the position in the splendid way he has done. 1930 14 rv' ,.-'Wh - iyQO ...r 00 ' U-W AGRICULTURE HISTORY SCIENCE Walter C.

Early in the fall semester the Governing Board was occupied in revising the constitution, and the result is a constitution that is a credit to our high school. Through the student body the school purchased a trophy case for the new gym- nasium and a radio. The radio is a great help to the classes as many educational programs are received by means of it. It also makes possible the noon dances. The Governing Board also discussed a new plan in which the number of mem- bers on out Governing Board may be decreased so that it may be more efficient next term. GOVERNING BOARD 1930 16 ECHO MR.

Garrett Nelligan The Senior year of the class of 1930 has been more eventful than any other year since its members were freshmen. The new schedule, the new gymnasium, and the many new clubs have all added variety to school life. This year has been a complete one, scholastically, socially, and athletically. The class has watched all of its members rise to superiority throughout its four years of school life. The first girl to be president of the Student Body was elected this year. Athletic championship winners, orarorical contest winners, and possessors of talent in other lines figure in this year's graduating class. The junior-Senior Prom was held in April, the Senior picnic in June, and a dance given the Seniors by the Parent-Teachers' Association was also an event of June.

'H' V l 57 1930 aaa Governor Pablo Vincente de Sola, successor to Governor Arguello in the province between the Harbor of the Sun and the Valley of the Seven Moons, was the last Spanish Governor of California. His rule, which began so pleasantly, finally proved unhappy for himself as well as for his King. Fate reserved for Governor Sola the ignominious task of surrending the power of Spain in California to the victorious revolutionists of Mexico. Sola's troubles began immediately. The Russians at Fort Ross and Bodega on the coast north of San Francisco were constant thorns in his side. The Muscovites appeared determined to colonize the northern portion of the Province, as well as to use it for a hunting and a fishing ground. The Governor received instructions to drive the Russians out of the country, and there is no doubt he would have made the attempt had not invasion from another quarter intervened. The best he could do was to send the Franciscans out to extend their line of Missions, resulting in the establish- ment of San Rafael and San Francisco de Solano at Sonoma, but it may be that his fears regarding the Russians were groundless. Certainly they did everything they could to show a spirit of friendship for the Spaniards. They were extremely deferential and courteous in all their acts, and aided the Franciscans with contributions of both money and ornaments in the erection of the Mission at Sonoma. But the Spanish rulers and settlers of California could not get over their dislike and distrust of all strangers. When Alexander Kofkoff, the Russian officer in charge of affairs at Fort Ross, came to San Francisco in 1815 to transact some business, Luis Antonio Arguello, the Commandante of San Francisco, wrote a bitter letter to Governor Sola against the Russians, saying that their presence in the country was an insult to the Spanish flag. Fort Ross is the name that the English-speaking settlers came to call the settlement made by the Russians in 1812. The founder, Governor Alexander Kofkoff, named his new colony Rossiya, which means settle- ment of Little Russia. The word fort was not included in the name, for though the Russians brought arms and cannon for protection, they wanted only peace, and avoided any term that might even suggest armed conflict. f' 4' - 's THE RU-SSYAN FORT AT FORT ROSS l8i2 ECHO Miss LELAND Miss COVERT Advifer Advifer GIRLS' LEAGUE The first event of the year for the Girls' League Cabinet was the convention of Girls' Leagues held in Alameda on September 28, 1929.

Every year this auction is conducted by the Debating Club and is always one of the most successful attractions of the school circus. FIRST SEMESTER OFFICERS SECOND SEMESTER Robert Stokstad ....

The members must be active in vocational agricul- ture, high in scholarship, and must be recommended by the agricultural in- structor. The purpose of the organiza- tion is to unite the Future Farmers so they can improve the conditions of co-operative marketing and profitable farming. The Santa Rosa Chapter was formally launched when a meeting of the charter members was held in the high school cafeteria. The Santa Rosa Chapter proved to be progressive because of the great spirit and interest the members are showing. The enrollment will increase greatly as there are many students in the agricultural department who are eligible and interested. There are three types of membership in the organization. They are Active, Associate, and Honorable. One of the Honorary members is Arthur Ketterlin, who is distinguished as the Fourth Vice-President of the United States and is a charter member of the National Organization. MR.

Irs purpose was to bring together these boys so that they, as a group, might accom- plish something worth While by C0A3H .FORTIER combining their interests. Adwfff' During the first few years of its existence, the society was one of the most active of the school. Its duties were to maintain order in assemblies, rallies, and games, to collect tickets at games, and to act as ushers at games. The society also presented programs at school entertainments. During the past few years, the society has not been as active as formerly, but the members hope to take over some of their old duties next year, according to Harold Groom, this year's president. The members of the Block S Society are: Francis Alkire, William Grace, Walter Pense, James Dennis, Harold Groom, Everett Fisher, Paul Asti, John Galeazzi, Lennie Hartman, Leo Collin, Lloyd Johnson, George Pagani, Jerome Brendlin, Fred Rossi, William Novelli, Stewart House, Robert Jenkins, Arthur Roberts, Francis Gardella, Robert Duffy, Elden Eckman, Delmo Poli, Harold Gallagher, Clarence Walker, Arthur Eickenberry, Ernest Zappa, Clevie Duerson, Marcel Delport, Leiton Elder, james Farley, and Harold Patton. 67 1930 ECHO ASTRONOMY CLUB The Astronomy Club was organized for the benefit of those who are inter- ested in the stars and planets and their relativity to the earth.

This club was organized for the purpose of promoting interest in stamps and thus to bring about closer relationship with foreign MRS. SMOYER countries. The study of stamps in- Advllff cludes international relationship. At the meetings various stamps were discussed and reports were made on new issues and classifications of stamps. During the term several collections were displayed which are valued at several hundred dollars. Among the most interesting of the single displays was a Graf Zepplin cover owned by Otto Kaasch. The Stamp Club presented a joint assembly with the International Club, and also participated in Circus Day.

Reporter 71 1930 i Ax On july 14, 1769, began from San Diego the historic march of Don Gaspar de Portola and his men on the vain and fruitless search for Monte- rey, which resulted in the discovery of another and greater harbor that made the name of Portola immortal. Never was port so elusive as that same Monterey that the whole world now knows so well. The trouble was that Cabrillo had made an error in his reckonings when he placed Monterey on his map, and, because of this mis- calculation, Portola was led on a sorry chase when he set out from San Diego. For weeks and weeks the party marched through valleys beautiful with oak and sycamore, redolent with perfume of wild flowers and vibrant with the songs of rhrush and linnetg for weeks and weeks they climbed the brown hills shining with the splendor of the dawn, royal with sunset's purple and diademed with the jeweled stars of night-but still no sign of Monterey gleaming in glory among her cypressed shores. And it came to pass that on the first day of November in that fateful year, 1769, Portola's expedition had marched beyond the spot it was seeking. Every morning and every last look at evening from the hills showed still no crescent cut of shore or estuary that could be hailed as Monterey even by the wildest flight of the imagination. Sickness and weariness had .nade pathetic inroads on Portola's bands. The men who still remained strong carried on litters those who could no longer keep up the heartbreaking pace. At last the brave little band reached the spot from which the fasci- nated traveler of today, trekking from the South, may look out upon the great ocean, beholding Point Reyes to the northward and the rocky isles of the Farallones in cobwebs of mists off shore. Portola pitched a camp and sent Ortega, his sergeant, to explore. Some soldiers who were left in camp resolved to go forth on a forage, which they did, and as they returned, near evening, they fired their guns to apprise Portola that they came with great news. They reported having seen a vast arm of the sea which stretched far inland. Was it Monterey, at last? New hopes inspired the expedition and the coming of morning was most eagerly and restlessly awaited. The rest of the story is soon told. Pushing eastward, next day across the hills, Gaspar de Portola and his companions looked down, not upon Monterey, but upon the dancing waters of the Bay of St. Francis and the bronze portals of the Golden Gate! I 5 . 1 ECHO COACH F ORTIER COACH HICKEY ATHLETICS The conclusion of a successful athletic season shows what two good coaches can do for a high school. Santa Rosa High School is proud of its two splendid coaches, Orbin W. Fortier and Vern Hickey. Coach Fortier has been turning out good basketball teams for the past five years, and his teams this year ran true to form. His Class UA hoopsters took the champion- ship of the North Coast Basketball League, and his B team missed the championship by losing only one game-a hotly contested battle with Tamalpais. At the time this book goes to the press, Coach Fortier's baseball team is a likely prospect for the league championship. The Santa Rosa team has won the division by defeating Analy and Healdsburg. Petaluma forfeited her game to Santa Rosa. Coach Fortier also tutors the tennis and swimming teams. He took tennis honors this year, and, at the time of this writing, the swimming team is getting well under way. Coach Vern Hickey is a newcomer here this year. He came to Santa Rosa from Fort Bragg. His track team broke the league record for the half mile relay, and his C team won the league championship. Coach Hickev also produced a fine foot- ball team last fall, which placed second in the North Bay League. At present, he is coaching a golf team which promises to do some good work on the links. Some of the proteges of the local coaches will be graduated this year and intend to participate in athletics in college. Among them are Francis Alkire, who may enter Stanford University, and Harold Groom, who will go to St. Mary's College. Elden Eckman intends to attend junior College. 1930 74 tt, 2 EMO ,. ,inn 1. f 1 .ff ,A , FOOTBALL This picture shows one of the best football teams in the history of Santa Rosa High School. The team is a result of the work of Vern Hickey, new Panther Coach. The team started the season with practice games with the Santa Rosa junior College and St. Mary's High School of Berkeley. The local team held the junior College to a 0-0 tie, but the St. Mary's aggregation defeated the Panthers by a score of 13-12. In other practice games the gridders defeated Tamalpais, Napa, and St. Helena. The opening league game was played with Analy whom the Panthers defeated by a 13-0 score. San Rafael, the next league contender, also met defeat at the hands of the locals by a score of 26-0. The Panther winning streak was stopped by Vallejo in the third league game when the Trojans defeated the Panthers 6-0. Petaluma, the one remaining league team, was defeated 13-0 by the Santa Rosans. In each of these games the Santa Rosa team displayed a good spirit and has played a stellar brand of football. Many of this year's squad will be here next season and may be counted upon as probable players on next year's team. In the backfield Santa Rosa will have Arthur Roberts, William Grace, Lennie Hartman, and Alessio Bertini, all of whom played good ball this year. In the line there will be Marcel Delport, Everett Fisher, and Walter Bowron. In spite of the fact that these veterans are remaining, the school will feel the loss of Captain Harold Groom, fullback, Leo Collin, George Ankers, and George Pagani, halfbacksg Herbert Yandle and Forrest Wasson, ends, Francis Alkire, james Dennis and Marion Simpson, tackles, and Clarence Weinland and Clevie Duerson, centers. These players will all be graduated with the class of June, 1930. 75 1930 ECHO 950 CAPTAIN HAROLD Gnoon Fullback-Senior WILLIAM GRACE Qmzrlerbark-junzor JAMES DENNIS Tarkle-Senior FORREST WASSON End-Senior LEO COLLIN H al fbark-S enior LEN HARTMAN Qzmrierback-Senior CLEVE DUERSON C enter-S efzior HUBERT YANDLE End--Senior COACH VERN HICREY MARION SIMPSON Guard-Senior EVERETT FISHER Gzmrd-Sophomore GEORGE PAGANI H al flnzck-S mio 1' MARCEL DELPORT Guard-fzmior GEORGE ANKERS H al fback-S enior FRANCIS ALKIRE Tackle-Senio r ARTHUR ROBERTS Halfbark-junior ECHO 1930 ECHO HAROLD GROOM FOOTBALL Putting forth their most suc- cessful effort in five years, the Santa Rosa 1929 football team placed second in the North Bay League.

When the league started, Coach Hickey's cohorts proved themselves superior to all but one team, Vallejo, who scored a 6-O win over Santa Rosa. Many of this year's first team will graduate and leave vacant positions for Coach Hickey to fill. The first string men who will leave are: Francis Alkire, George Ankers, james Dennis, Harold Groom, George Pagani, Forrest Wasson, and Hubert Yandle. The personnel of the first team is: fullback, Harold Gtoomg halfbacks, Leo Collin, George Pagani, Arthur Roberts, and George Ankers, quarterbacks, William Grace, and Leonard Hartman, ends, Hubert Yandle and Forrest Wasson, guards, Marcel Delport, Everett Fisher, and Marion Simpson, tackles, Francis Alkire, and james Dennis, center, Clevie Duerson.

When the league opened, the Panthers continued their winning streak by taking their section of the league. The Panther invincibles nabbed the North Bay League Championship by defeating Napa 35-19. At the conclusion of this game, the Panthers took on the Eurekans to defeat them 24-10. By virtue of this victory, they won the North Coast champion- ship. Every one of the first string men played stellar ball, while the substitutes would have done any team credit. Eckman, Duffy, and Galeazzi held down forward positions, while either Pense or Johnson took center, and Alkire and Grace held guards. The reserves were Boll- inger, Brooks, Brown, Bunyan, Estes, Fisher, Gardella, Patterson, and Poli. Praise goes to Coach Fortier for his able instruction. 1 9 3 0 79 ECHO LEN HARTMAN C uplaifz CLASS B BASKETBALL Santa Rosa High Schools Class B basketeers took second place in section B of the North Bay League.

The team was composed of Eickenberry, Vitali, Walker, and Zappa. Only three members of this year's team are graduating. They are Captain Leo Collin, Elden Eckman, and Arthur Roberts. The rest of the team will be eligible to compete in next year's meet. 35 1930 ECHO TENNIS Santa Rosa High School's tennis team, under the direction of Coach O. W.

Schaefer, and William Grace. 1930 86 ECHO MINOR SPORTS -- Tennif, Swimming. and Go! f. 1930 ECHO G. A. A. CABINET Members of the cabinet were: presi- dent jacquelin Mitchell, vice-president, Elvira Lagomarsina, secretary - treasurer, Alice Iwaoka, point recorder, Alice Gei- ger, yell leader, Angelina Perotta, fresh- man class manager, Leonore Slusser, sophomore class manager, Edna Fae Miss MCCANSE Kronke, junior class manager, Lucile Advirer Talbot, senior class manager, Lois Com- stock, basketball manager, Mary Kral, volleyball manager, Ruth Stewart, tennis mana- ger, Claire jessup, hockey manager, Mary Ora Sights, horseshoe manager, Alice Furber, swimming manager, Sylvia Marihugh, track manager, Catherine Ward, field manager, Rose Molinari, dancing manager, Helen Heckley. Faculty advisers were: Frances McCanse, Wilma Van Rensselaer, and Mildred Turner. During the past year there has been fostered a spirit for a greater movement in girls' athletics. As a result, the Girls' Athletic Association has been organized. At present the membership totals 385, including 19 officers. The constitution was enacted by Angelina Perotta, Elvira Lagomarsina, Alice Geiger, and jacquelin Mitchell, assisted by Frances McCanse, physical education instructor. Docia Patchett, dean of the girls, officially installed the first G. A. A. officers into their respective offices, at which time the oath was taken, followed by the mem- bership pledge taken by all the girls. Later the first initiation was held at Doyle Park, and 34 girls were accepted as members of the G. A. A. Although a new organization, it has become outstanding for the loyal spirit the girls have shown in supporting all school activities. 1930 88 ECHO GIRLS' DANCING CLASS The girls of the Santa Rosa High School dancing classes have been fortun- ate this year in having a new dancing studio, lockers, and showers. These facilities and Miss Mildred Turner's splendid direction have helped to pro- duce some of the best terpsichorean programs ever presented by groups in this high school. Miss TURNER Adzfirer This year has seen the accomplishment of many new and fascinating ideas in the way of solo and group numbers on various programs presented at school. Among those which were especially outstanding are the Football Show, Echo Stunt Nite, the Education Week program, the Operetta, The Belle of Bagdad, the G. A. A. Play Day, and the several assemblies at which the girls danced. The Education Week program contained an especially lovely ballet, and the solo, special, and group num- bers in the operetta deserve special mention. The girls in the picture above are members of the advanced dancing class. They are Beth Rudisill, Julia Laurent, Dolores Gardella, Teresa Mae Defoe, Wanda Zoller, Margaret Plum, and Naomi Dempsey. Costumes worn by the girl dancers in their ballets were made by themselves and by the sewing classes. For several programs, the costumes were rented from various San Francisco establishments. Miss Turner says that she hopes the girls' dancing classes will progress as much next year as they have done this year, and that they will continue to entertain at high school functions whenever asked to do so. 89 1930 ECHO 'Ihe above picture represents Santa Rosa High School's first girls' swimming team. These are the girls who placed highest in the meet held at the municipal pool in September, 1929. In June, 1930, the second swimming meet was held in which an increased number of girls took part. Plunge for distance, back-stroke, under water for distance, candle race, and the twenty-yard dash were the aquatic events for the afternoon. Below are the school's girl championship tennis players, who played in inter- class tournaments both in the fall and spring semesters. A number of these girls played in the singles and doubles tennis tournaments made up of girls from Petaluma, Sebastopol, Healdsburg, Geyserville, and Santa Rosa at the Sonoma County Play Day held at Santa Rosa May 2-4. A l , ,QW l930 90 ECHO Hockey was introduced during the fall semester under the supervision of Frances McCanse, girls' physical education instructor. Hockey tournaments were played in all the classes, each class having three teams. The Freshman and Senior girls were the victors in the final inter-class tournaments. At the Play Day held on May 24 on Nevers' Field, the Santa Rosa girls gave an exhibition of a hockey game before Girls' Athletic Association members from other high schools of Sonoma county. Horseshoes was also a new sport for the girls' gymnasium classes this year. All girls who were not interested in the game of hockey spent their time in playing horseshoes. Class tournaments of this game were held during the fall semester, 91 1930 usm -- 9 if ii 77 ATHLETICF.-IWW , ff ' ffl em, AWARDS -,JiJZfliesTf:f5WfG3?,zSS FOOTBALL Ellsworth Ingram Francis Alkire George Ankers Leo Collin james Dennis Marcel Delport Clevie Duerson Everett Fisher William Grace Harold Groom Len Hartman George Pagani Arthur Roberts Marion Simpson Forrest Wasson Hubert Yandle CX?

It was, therefore, from Monterey that everything which concerned both the religious and civil government originated for a period of nearly eighty years-from the founding of the Mission to the constitutional convention which marked the entrance of California into the American Union as a sovereign state. The Presidio of Monterey was called The Royal Presidio because it was located at the capital and therefore stood in the place of the King. And the church at San Carlos, near by, was called The Royal Chapel because it was the church in which the King would have wor- shipped had he actually existed in the flesh in his new California possessions. There were no other ptesidios or churches in California, from the first to last, to which the title royal was or could have been applied. The church of San Carlos in Monterey built in 1794, which is still standing in excellent state of preservation, was used as the church of the parish, and took the title Royal Chapel of the Presidio of Monterey -the same title that was borne by its rude and unpretentious predecessor, the first temporary church build- ing, long since vanished in the dust. Monterey, having been established as the civil, religious, and military capital of California, also became, naturally, the center of social life, The memory of the glory of Monterey and the color of the gay life that was lived there through so many stirring years lingered long after the place had been stripped of its power. It is a memory that lingers still. It was not only the central government, but the central port, as well-the place in which authority from without was received and from which it was proa mulgated and disseminated for the guidance of the pueblos and ranchos with their alcaldes and over-lords, all up and down the golden coast of glory. It is therefore an easy feat for the imagination to picture old Monterey as she was in her days of power and splendor. The busy streets were filled with gorgeously caparisoned horses. Frequently a rider sat in a saddle worth a thousand dollars and held the rein of a bridle worth half as much, so ornamented were the harnesses with gold and silver. All was life and color. Fashion drew to this central throne the wit, the wealth, and beauty of the entire country that lay between San Francisco and San Diego. ll?

The wheat fields of Cali- fornia were extremely fertile and magnanimously productive. They produced an excellent quality of wheat. The early Spaniards, however, cultiviated these fields only to the extent of harvesting enough for their own use. They had hired labor to cultivate and harvest the fields, and they were content to grind the meal by crude grist mills run by hand. Another great tide of empire broadening the United States had begun to sweep farther westward, breaking trails, climbing mountains, fording streams, and forging a civilization in the west. These men who came were hardy. They had crossed the plains in covered wagons and with very little household goods. These were the pioneers. Theyiknew how to turn natural resources to their own uses by applying their minds and their hands. These pioneers, these Americans, saw this land rich in offerings, and they saw that the offerings were good, but that they had to be earned by labor. These people offered their labor and harvested in return such crops as had never been seen before. One way in which the pioneers made use of the marvels of nature was in the applying of water to the crude grist mills which had been used heretofore. Napa Valley was a lovely spot for growing wheat. Several fields and grist mills were located in the valley. In 1847 Dr. Edward Bale, an enter- prising pioneer, erected a grist mill run by water power in the fertile Napa Valley. This mill still stands, a picturesque landmark of pioneer days.
