I ' y ( Af f L ■ ' ; DEMOCRAT JEFFERSON HIGH SCHOOL LOS ANGELES, CALIF. 1967 EDITOR DORIS BROWN ADVISOR KEN HAWKINS . Would You Believe? The doors of Jefferson challenges a new student ' s imagination and interest. Few are those who enter without having heard much about our school and what they have heard has usually made them eager to become a part of our adventures in learning. We are never quite the same. Our minds are developed; our friendships, enlarged; and our attitudes are matured far beyond what they were before we passed this way. V ' enniring high above our school, we dare to look down upon the seat of our exciting activities. Behind the school lies the football field, where students discover the thrills of sportsmanship, the participa- tion in or watching football, track, and outdoor sports. FOREWORD CONTENTS ADMINISTRATION 6 SERVICES 11 STUDENT GOVERNMENT 14 STUDENTS 16 ORGANIZATIONS 65 FACULTY CLASSES 77 SPORTS 101 ACTIVITIES 118 ADVERTISEMENTS 126 f WOULD YOU BELIEVE that the next fifty years in the history of Jefferson High School can be even more significant than the first fifty? We have just entered the second half-century in the history of this fine school. If each member of the student body will do everything in his power to make his three years here productive and constructive, we will have every reason to have confidence in what lies ahead. Congratulations and best wishes to all members of the graduating class. We are proud of you! VICE-PRINCIPALS Miss Lucile Vance Girl ' s Vice-Principal One role of Administration in a secondary school is to provide an educational environment in which each student may achieve his potential capacity. The office of the vice-principal affords an opportunity to assist teachers, students, and other staff members in the development of such an environment. Students must meet established codes of behavior and pursue their studies in an industrious manner as a part of this environment. The ultimate goal is to have each student attain a high level of self-discipline in the pursuit of learning. Mr. Marvin Borden Boy ' s Vice-Principal Would you believe — That the boy ' s Vice-Principal ' s office is dedicated to providing the finest Educational Environment possible. Would you Believe — That the Vice Principal is frequently assigned to give references for present and former students and that the good or poor records made in High School stay with you.

The Attendance and Counselors ' Office and its staff have tv o-fold functions: (a) to provide counseling and guidance services for all students at Jefferson High School, and (b) to maintain adequate records that will be available for each student during his lifetime. The counseling and guidance services are directed toward assisting each student. 1. To advance toward knowledge and acceptance of himself --his abilities, his needs, and his potentialities ; 2. To find opportunities for developing his abilities and interests, and for meeting his needs ; 3. To face and accept without defeat those realities over which he has limited, or no control ; 4. To find means of achieving a way of life which is satisfying to him as a person and which is in harmony with the ideals of the democratic society of which he is a member. At Jefferson each student meets with his grade advisor each semester to make a program for the follow- ing semester and review his educational plans. Grade advisors may not be able to confer with students as often as they, the students, would like. Students or parents are urged to make an appointment for a conference with any member of the staff whenever it seems desirable. CLERICAL STAFF Mrs. E. Livingston Miss C. Babajko Miss Burleigh Mrs. W.

Just to give you an idea of what the cheerleaders do, here are some of the major duties they have: 1. Extend a welcome on behalf of the entire student body to the opposing school. 2. Lead students, at the proper time, in cheers to help boost the team ' s moral. 3. Try to keep cheering section together to prevent their getting out of hand. 4. Sacrifice their desire to please you the student body in order to abide by the school and league rules. So, if you have thought being a yell leader is an easy job, maybe this has convinced you that it is not. If not, join the cheering sofuad and see for yourself.

You ' re right! ! We are the smallest, and yes we offer a m ore diversified program than most large art departments. Would you believe that we have a famous print maker in our art department- -that we have an outstanding sculptor? Well the sculptor is not a Michelangelo but the print maker - what lines - what texture - what beauty ! She got a free trip to Rome for having the best print in the Westward Art Show. Seriously, the art department is well-rounded in all fields and can present an art major with a solid background. We ' re hoping soon to get another fulltime art teacher to take over the ceramics department; until then, we ' ll do little potting, but lots of painting. 77 BUSINESS Mrs. Miles (Department Chairman) Miss Baethke D. Matthews Miss Cueva Would you believe: that shorthand at Jefferson High School is fun. The addition of a Stenocord Listening Post makes it possible for thirty-two students to take dictations at three different speeds at the same time. The post is available during the SOC classes for students who need extra practice. that of the fi.fty students who qualified during the city wide L. A. Board Clerk Typist and Clerk Stenographer test- ing program of last semester, five of Jefferson ' s students are now employed by the Board of Education in these positions. that a new course, Sales and Merchandizing Procedures, has been added to the Business Education Curriculum. Bungalow 26 boast a new cash register, three mannequins, a showcase, register, selling, window decorating, etc. A cash register operator in a grocery store demands a good wage. that if you enroll in the Business Education Department now, you may select one of three major sequences: Shorthand or Bookkeeping, Salesmanship and Merchandizing, or General Office. 78 £D ESS EDUCATION Mr. Vranjes fig i Miss C.

Richard McCammon Mrs. Ouida Mitchell ENGLISH Would You Believe The functions of the English Department are to serve the in- dividual needs of all students, from slow pupils to college preparatory students, so that each pupil has the opportunity to develop his potential capacity to the fullest extent and to be able to communicate adequately on whatever economic or occupational level he may attain. To read well, to write effectively and to speak standard American English are of the greatest importance. It is hoped that basic reading and writing and standard, grammatically acceptable English usage will lead to crea- tive thinking and creative writing. Today, with so many influences of all kinds about us, we must learn to know, to think and to evaluate independently allof the many areasof modern day living. Spelling, grammar, oral-expression, composition, library skills and creative thinking- -these are the ingredients for the recipe of success. Mr. Philip Nolo Mr. Malcolm Small Mr. Don Schulman k 80 HOMEMAKING Would You Believe? Would you believe that the Home Economics Department at Jefferson High School is one of the most active in senior high schools in Los Angeles? We are able to boast about our relatively large department of five teachers, offering a wide assortment of classes from Boy ' s Foods and Management and Boys ' Tarloning to Commercial Sewing and Child Care. In Commercial Sewing and other Clothing Classes, the students learn to operate the kind of equipment that is used in the garment indus try to mass produce clothes. Would you believe that five girls who grad- uated from the Commercial Sewing Class received jobs as power machine operators? Would you believe that boys are better cooks than girls? For the second time, a scholorship for advanced study in Foods has been a- warded by Trade Tech, to a recent Jefferson graduate. Would you believe a fifty-dollar place setting of sterling silver goes to the winner of the Homemaking Award, in the Spring Semester? Would you believe a beautiful cookbook is given to the student with the best grade in Home Living Classes, each semester: The girls and boys at Jefferson are indeed fortunate in having such a good opportunity to study the various phases of Home Economics, a subject so meaningful in everyone ' s life. You ' d better believe it! Mrs. Lynch (Dept. Chairman) Mrs. Bowser Mrs. Collins (Fac. Sec. ) Mrs. Katayama (B12 Grade Advisor) Mrs. Simmons 82 83 INDUSTRIAL ARTS Mr. W. Gray, Chairman Mr. L. Allen Would You Believe Over one-half of Jefferson ' s student body is enrolled in the Industrial Edu- cation Dept. That many students go directly from high school into good paying jobs as a result of training received in the in- dustrial education dept. That many industrial plants near Jef- ferson High co-operate with the in- dustrial education dept. in providing jobs for students. Students realize that they must learn before they can earn. Mrs. E.

Beginning Algebra students will take Algebra S, followed by Algebra Si, and then Algebra S2- At the end of the Algebra S semester, the students get credit for General Math. Al- gebra credit is given for both Algebra S, and 52- In other words the student takes three semesters of Algebra to make two. This program has many advantages, among which are: 1. The S classes move at a slower pace and hence cover less work in a semester. 2. Because of the slower pace the teacher is able to go into topics in greater depth. 3. Fewer students lose 5 credits per se- mester as was true under the old pro- gram. 4. There is a strong possibility that students in this program will come out of it with a better understanding of Algebra. 5. Because more students will have a bet- ter understanding of Algebra there should be as a consequence, an increase in the number of students taking ad- vanced Math. Mr. J. Reynolds Chairman Mr. A.

Each subject in the Social Studies Department is required for graduation by California state law. In the tenth grade, students must take World History and Geography. United States History is required in the eleventh grade. In the senior year, United States Government and Contemporary American Problems and Government are required courses. Because all Jeffersonites must participate in the Social Studies Department program, it ' s enrollment is one of the largest in Ihe school -- about 1400 each semester, with a teaching staff of 12 teachers. The World Friendship Club, one of the OLDEST and most active organizations in our school is sponsored by a member of the Social Studies faculty, and it has always urged all students in Social Studies classes to join the group. The basic philosophy of this department is to give every student at Jefferson High School an education for Democratic citizenship. The words of our school oath are its constant inspiration and challenge — To win honorably. To lose graciously. To cooperate generously. Mr. Knight- Honor Sch. C.S.F. Adv.
