Under the direction of the new coach, Hilton Bell, a hard-driving team was quickly whipped into shape. The first practice game was with Corcoran in Cor- coran. Tulare played good football, the majority of the game being played in Corcoran's end of the field. Powell sliced oi tackle to score, Nowell blocked a punt, and Broome fell on the ball for safety, to give Tulare a victory, the score being Tulare 8, Corcoran 0. The most heart-breaking defeat was the first league game with Exeter, held the day of the dedication of the new athletic field. Tulare scored early in the game with power plays, and threatened on several other oc- casions. They failed to convert and held the lead until the final half minute of play when Exeter completed a pass to score a touchdown and another pass for the extra point and victory, The losing of the first league game must have dis- couraged the mighty Redskins, for they likewise lost the second league game to Hanford, the score being 13-6. The game showed the teams even on first downs. Lopez ran through 68 yards for the first Hanford score, and Abbott caught a pass for the Tulare score. A cost- ly Tulare fumble paved the way for Hanford's winning points. However, there was much spirit among the boys and they had plenty of fight left for the rest of the season. lWith this fight the boys made a beautiful play to win the third league game from Lindsay. Friend ran around right end for the only score of the day. Tulare also won their game with Delano, Barrier scoring on a power play. The game proved to be an interesting one. This was the ninth year for the Strathmore jinx, thus being one of the most exciting games of the sea-

1954-1955 33 333 335 With the approach of the close of another year at Tulare High School comes the natural reminiscence of the happenings and highlights of 1934-35. The regular subjects of the curriculum are little var- ied from those of previous years and this issue of the Argus is not devoted to them but to the permanent im- provements around the school, the extra-curricular ac- tivities in the school, the students and teachers who have taken part in these activities, and as a lasting summarization of the activities of the class of 1935. Two major additions, one a matter of necessity, have been made this year: First, the official opening of the new athletic field, one of the best in the valley, and second, our 12-bungalow court, which has housed a large part of our classes since the condemnation of our main building and gymnasium. Activities of the school have been spread over the entire town, with the Tulare Theatre, Central School auditorium, Tulare County Fairgrounds, and the Wo- man's clubhouse being the scenes of student assem- blies, basketball games and social events. The year 1934-35 has not been a banner year, yet it can well be said that it is far above the average. In football our teams were victorious in the majority of their games. In basketball both varsity and B class teams made strong bids for county honors. The var- sity lost by a scant three points, losing one crucial game by one point and another by two points. Baseball, revived after five years, started the sea- son with a bang, but had its championship chances hurt by a defeat in mid-season. Track, as yet unfinished, promises to bring many honors to Tulare. Space here limits a review of the year's activities, but in the following pages have been gathered, accord- ing to seasons, the most interesting and outstanding events of the year.
