Mr. Baat's history students, known throughout the school as appreciating the enjoyable side of the subject, are famous for knowing two outstanding points. One is the importance of the date October 12, l492 and the other is that women have no constitutional rights except that of voting. CAfter all, what would men do if women had equal rights? WOW!ll Mr. Baat has also left his name imprinted in other locations.

Then the West Coast heard ot lack Baat as an outstanding halfback tor the St. Marys Gaels. He has taught at Sutter Hi and in South San Francisco. His daughter, Pat, graduated from Tam in l95l. ln his last year as senior class advisor, Mr. Baat, a part-time counselor and in the past a tootball, basketball, and baseball coach, has maintained a teach- ing technique that is happily remembered by many years ot Tam students. It is with this in mind, that we, the graduating class ot 1954, dedicate OUR PAI to Mr. lack Baat. Page 3 hs., t PRI CIPALQS MESSAGE This is the time to survey the accomplish- ments of the past four years and to look into the future. Your future is strictly up to you. As a citizen of free, dynamic, ever-progressing America, you will find no dictator to tell you what you must do. Your opportunities will he limited only by your vision of what your future may become, your abilities and how you use them, your character and your determination. You will shortly start out on one of the most exciting adventures you will ever have. Whether you go to college or start to work, you will find this new phase in your life fun. But, if you Want to get the most out of life you will have to organize your thinking. You will need to use foresight in acquiring those skills which will be most valuable to you later. You will have to plan your life well and follow your plan--yet leave your plan flexible enough to get around obstacles and take advantage of unforseen opportunities. MR. CARNINE, Principal Your income and position will be determined principally by the values placed upon the ser- vices you render to your employers or your customers. Whatever your work, you will have a selling job to do-a task of presenting what you have to offer in the best possible way. To reach the top you will find the road steep. l am confident that the members of this excellent class of 1954 will scale the heights. Your future is what you make il. Kenneth S. Carnine MR.

Thomas. The school board of governing body of the Tamalpais High School District is one of the most important groups concerned with school activities. The chief function of the board is formation of school policy and dealing with the problems of school administration. The members of the board are elected by the people of the Tamalpais Union High School District and the valuable service rendered by the board is completely voluntary, members receiving no compensation. ln a growing county like Marin, the board is constantly faced with problems cf building of new schools and the repairing of older ones. Being a member is usually a thankless task, so We would like here to offer a bouquet to the Tamolpais Union High School Board. Hats off to them as they, with a vision of the future, meet the growing needs of an expanding school population.

SE roi: CLASS OFFICER With the planning for graduation and presenting plays, dances, and pro- grams, the members of the 1954 Senior Class have had the busiest year since they entered Tam as freshmen, four years ago. Last tall, the class officers were oft to a fast start planning the Senior Ball. At Christmas they were selling Christmas cards and wreaths to lessen the cost of the bids. These projects raised enough money to pay for a band. ln March, plans were made to have the Ball, Iune 18, in the Italian Room oi the St. Fran- cis Hotel. At the same time, a day at Stinson Beach for the Senior Picnic was being dis- cussed. Also, there were the much talked-about Senior Plays, each having something new and special to offer. Our Town was the first play to use only seniors and Best Foot Forward , was the first musical comedy to be presented here in many years. These were among the many projects that made this the greatest year at Tam tor the class of '54. Page 1 1 l i l l l l 1 i E l r l l l i i .. l l r L r l l . ,, 7 .,.

The committee sold cards and Christmas wreaths to raise money for the band. The location, the Italian Room ot the St. Francis Hotel, was paid for by bids which the committee sold for S3 apiece. 5 A special election was held this year among the senior class to choose special graduating Tamites. The seniors elected Marshall McNeill, spring president ot the student body, and Gail Irvine, spring vice- president, as the two outstanding charac- ters. Tom Decker, fall president, and Lucie Cleeton, Editor oi the Pai, were chosen as the two most likely to succeed in their chosen professions. Both Tom and Lucie are looking at the possibility of science as a future career. SENIOR PL Y ln spite ot comments that no drama but comedy could be produced at a l'1iglr1 school, the l954 seniors presented Thornton Wilder's modern drama, Our Town to capacity audiences. Cal Audrain successfully played the romantic lead during lootl'1 performan- ces. Tamites will also never forget the acting ot Doris Terzich and Betty Main- inni as Emily, and Bill Hutchins and Bruce Bossrnan as ll'19 stage manager. For the spring production the Tarnalpais tlfiespians chose ot musical comedy, Best Foot Forward. lt was the tirst musical Tarn has given in years, and was very Well received. Gail lrvine, lay Bardwell, and Sally Bodine headed the double casts proving that they could sing as Well as act.

Page 23 SE TOR FAREWELL MESSAGE THE SENIOR FAREWELL: yes, the one small bit of writing th at summarizes four shcrt, but happy years in the lives of Tam's grad- uating seniors. We, the graduating sen- iors, in reminiscing find many outstanding events in our lives as Tamalpais stu- dentz. Problably it all start- ed when early one morning in September, 1950, we ar- rived at Tam for the first time. Excitement and ap- prehension filled our minds as we fearfully left the bus- ses. But here we were, as green as grass in the Spring, and we were willing to make the most of it. We all met in Mead Theater and there our high school life began. Remember meeting Bill Maddox, the Student Body President? Remember the first few days at school when we could never find our classes. we had no idea how to fill out an absence slip. Soon, we became part of the great Tam spirit. We saw Bill Hillebrand as the outstanding Indian footballer. We got our first sniff of the hydrogen sulfide from the chem. lab, and we watched Poo- chie White swish his way to a place on the All-Northern California basket- ball team. Ioan Preble made the boys look twice when she did the hula. Bar- bara Crtman and Paul Knowles made our eyes water from laughing and Coach Ed Nordstrom was the star of the Faculty Frolics. Then suddenly our sophomore year came and we really became active in school affairs. Bob Gunn and lim Bennison. led our Student Body. We watched Coach Ed's team take the N.B.L. Championship by smashing Vallejo, l2-U. As upper classmen we elected for leaders, Bob Sapp and Dayton Drake. Gramercy's Ghost was the Senior Play. With Steve Harper as our class prexy we put on the best lunior Prom in the history of the school lntermezzo . At last our Senior year, under the leadership of Tom Decker and Marshall McNeill. We danced at the l.R.C. dance Sernade in Blue and the frosh dance Sweetheart Hop. We produced two terrific Senior plays. Our Town, first play at Tam that had only seniors and used no scenery. Then came Best Foot Forward, the first musical senior play ever presented in the history of the school. We saw the faculty, led by Mr. Chet Carlisle, dump the Let- terman in their annual bas- ketball game. Then came Senior Week, the Senior Farewell, the Senior Picnic, the Senior Ball at The Ital- ian Room, Graduation, and tears. All this we remember in four glorious years ct Tam The freshman, sopho- mores, juniors, the faculty, the administration, from our hearts we, the graduating class of '54 thank YOU one and all.

The class officers, with the aid ot all class members, Worked hard to raise funds for the dance. With money raised in cake sales they were able to purchase a big name band, and cover all expenditures which arise when sponsoring a dance. The Queen of the Prom was the sparkling highlight of the evening. The junior class was honored this year to send a class member as a can- didate in the annual San Rafael Fiesta queen contest. Also, every year a junior girl and boy are sent to Girls' and Boys' State, to represent their school. This privilege is awarded only to juniors. The juniors, by working together, had a very lull and eventful year.

After the usual first weeks of searchiiq for lockers, classes, and the answers to homework, the Freshman class got on their Way under the leadership of their president, Deanne Amerson. On Feb. 20, the Frosh gave their first dance, appropiately named the Sweethart I-lop. Presented in the Study Hall, the dance was sport with the Tam Dance Band providinq the music. As a new twist, the Frosh qirls were allowed to ask any boy of their choosing, provided he was a sophomore, junior, or senior. Whether or not it was because of this stipulation, the dance proved a very successful event. If they continue to progress with the vitality which they have shown this past year, the qraduating class of '57 will be a class to remember!

Page 38 fuss- STUDENT GOVERNMENT X.,-,NLs' E E Jmoma X .G STUDENT BODY OFFICERS In the fall, under the leadership of Student Body President Tom Decker, Tarn enjoyed one of its most active semesters. Participation in extra curricular activities, representing all four classes, was at a record high. The county lnter- School Relations Committee became a strong bind between the high schools of Marin. Tam's representation of the N.B.L. Student Leaders Conference showed an outstanding example of Tam spirit by all those who participated. The Sportsmanship trophy was thoroughly experimented with at Tam until defeated by the league fathers. Under spring Student Body President Marshall McNeil, the Tam Student Body found its organization maintaining the high standard of recent years. Activities ran to perfection in the spring with Doris Terzich and lim Blair, Self- government I-leads, leading the field of many outstanding committee heads. During President McNeil's administration the A.S.T.H.S. Constitution was revised and amended to great extent thus ironing out many technical difficulties. Two new clubs were organized in the school, and a new public address system was bought with the help of the P.T.A. Page 41 FALL JUDICIAL and EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES Body President Tom Decker made the tall semester one of the most outstanding in several years, and even in the light ot a losing tool- ball season, student body spirit re- mained high. The other student body officers were Sally Bodine, vice president, Doris Terzich, secretary, Iennie Hong, treasurer, and Bon Sunde, yell leader. During the tall semester the Awards Committee was reorganized, proving very successful under the direction ot Bates Mclndoe, commit,- tee chairman.

The other student body officers for the second semester were Grail Irvine, vice president, Sandie Moor- ing, secretaryp Bruce Rossman, trea- surerp and Ierry Harman, yell leader. The Dance Committee was head- ed by Sue Enos and Cal Audrain, the Election-Survey Committee by Mercer Ervin and Iohn Rumsey, the Publicity Committee by Bobbie Iohn- son and lim Monte, and the Awards Committee by Sally Bodine and Bill Hutchins.

Starting off the year with a new instrustor, Mr. W'illiam Dochterman, the Tamalpais News staff turned out a' changed paper for its first issue. As more issues appeared, more new features, carto ans, and pictures became the policy for the paper. leanette Ehlen started as fall editor while Mardie Buchtel took over in the spring.

Then, with a little more room in which to move around, the staff set out to write and publish, the best Pai ever. Lucie, chosen as '54 editor by Kathy Laws, the head of last year's book, named lay Bardwell to assist her as manager: Pete Gross, sports editor: Carla Wooley, sales manager, and Pat Mullen and Lori Bard, assistant-editors. Early in the year, it was decided that more copy would be stressed in this year's book. After much debate, a new typo of cover was selected. lim Monte was chosen as the book's featured artist. Besides turning out the book, the staff took time to present the Pai rally, Old Faces. Hits of the show were a dance routine with lzzey Lewis and Vinette Purpora and Iackie Fontes as a dancing Pai. With the rally finished, and all books sold, the staff had only to meet their dead-lines, Whether they turned out the best Pai ever is up to you.

Pl ALPHA TAU Carla Wooley Mrs. Flanagan Alice Erwin Under the leadership of Carla Wooley in the Fall semester, Pi Alpha Tau, Tam girls service organization, began a very successful year. ln November, over titty new members were initiated into the group. This is the largest mem- bership the organization has had in its history. Many Tam students will re- member seeing the titty odd-looking girls, 1?l in pigtails, short skirts, and sun- glasses, carrying out the wishes of the older Pi Alpha Tau members. To start the semester's work, the group staged a clothing fund drive for Korea's destitute orphans. Several tons ot clothing were collected. The second project the girls tackled was a cake sale to raise money for blind Korean orphans, after the group received a letter from Helen Keller ask- ing for their help. Over 520.00 was raised through the cakes and cookies. On hand in the tall to help Carla in her job as president were: Mardie Buchtel, vice-president, Darlene Albin, secretary-treasurerg and, ot course the group's ever patient faculty advisor, Mrs. Katherine Flanagan. In the spring, Alice Erwin took over the president position.

Ed. who has coached football since 1948, produced in 1951 the finest team ever to take the field for Tamalpais. This same team went undefeated to win the N.B.L. Championship with a 12-0 victory over Valleio. We will all miss Ed at his football duties, but we look forward to many happy years of Ed's P.E. classes and outstanding Baseball teams that he will lead. It is with this in mind that we, the sports staff of the Pai, dedicate our section to coach Ed Nordstrom. VARSITY FOGTBALL Coach Ed Nordstrom's varsity football team came through its 1953 season winning six games, dropping three, and ending in a three-way tie for last place in the final North Bay League standings. The Indians opened the season by winning their first four games. Tam successfully downed St. Mary's of Berkeley, 13 to 6, San Rafael, 39 to 9, and Marin Catholic, 20 to 6 then turned back Napa, 20 to 14, for their first league wln. The Tam eleven fell the following week, however, to powerful Santa Rosa, 52 to O. The Indians got back on the winning track just long enough to knock over San Rafael again, 25 to 6, before being dropped by Vallejo the following week, 47 to l3. Reloounding from the Vallejo from the Vallejo defeat, the lndians put to- gether iheir finest game of the year to topple previously unbeaten Capuchino, l8 to 7. Tam closed out its season on a sad note, however, losing a hard- fought I2 to 7 battle to their northern rivals, Drake. Outstanding throughout the year were co-captains Carl Lundquist and Ken Homan, Mike Green, Frank Commins, Bob Whitman, Phil Price, Al Cannon, Lorry Brown, IL, EN Marshall McNeil, Bill jones, Tom Elliot, lim McGown, and AX Doyle Nance. .

Many of the team's members will join the varsity and B ranks next year and should be a great help to the respective squads. The team started the season fast, winning their first two Page 85 Jeff Van Cleve Bill Sievers Sid Chapin Mike Kilgore Don Muller 'Til WIMMI G Coach George Cfustafson's B swimming team, like the varsity, was one of the greatest in Tarn history.

The Vallejo meet probably showed the greatest team effort of the year, as the Tam squad soundly trounced their favored opposition, 42-24. The mer- men finally met defeat in their l3th meet of the year as they found their.- selves on the short end of a triangular meet with Cal Frosh and powerful Oak- land Castlemont. A few days latter the lndians suffered defeat at the hands of another strong East Bay swim squad, Acalanes.

Under the leadership of Pat Leininger and loanne Murphy the girls in G.A.A. have again had an eventful year. in the fall G'r.A.A. horseback riders provided the first highlight with the Tamalpais Horseshow. One of the events in this horseshow was a costume contest. Gennie Sefton rode away with the prize after she coni- peted as the Headless Horseman. Linda Hains was awarded the prize for being the best all-around rider. Following the Horseshow was the semester's awards banquet. Arabian Nights was the theme of the banquet and Cynthia Browne carried the theme through in fine style when she designed the exotic program covers. At this banquet Fall President Pat Leininger handed the gavel to Spring President, Ioanne Murphy. As usual the spring was filled with activities. Tam planned a playday but had to cancel it because the other schools had their calendars filled. A few Tam girls went to a playday at the Univer- sity of California in March. More went in April to a playday at Drake. A new spot was made in the G.A.A. Council when it was de- cided to have an intramural manager.
