If one were to trace the life of every young man and woman who has graduated from Venice, one would find a kaleidoscope of immensely interesting proportions. Probably each of the many branches of life has been entered by some Venetian alumnus, and many more have already decided what walks of life their feet shall trod. With this idea in mind, Life After High School has been chosen as the theme of the 1934 Gondolier. Only a few of the many phases of Life After High School have been illustrated, a fairly diversified selection having been made. Some students will go to college, some to junior college, and someiwill start immediately their quests for Hlivingsv in the professional, industrial, and commercial fields. If each graduate will follow the motto of a man who had some seemingly unconquerable obstacles to meet, he may feel that he has made a good start toward enjoying a successful life.

QF f A I 2,0 IC Venice--Today and Tomorrow Venice High School is today only a shell of its former self. Where once stood Hve beautiful structures surrounded by an equally fine campus one can see only ruins, in back of which stand a number of tents and bun- galows. These tents and bungalows represent, today, the Venice High School STRUCTURE. However, the boys and girls that form the student body, the men and women that constitute the faculty, are not mere shadows of their former selves. They have not become disheartened because of the devastating results of some cataclysmic act of nature. Instead, they have adapted themselves to their new environment, and look forward to the time when their new home will have been built. This represents, today, the Venice High School SPIRIT. The future of Venice High is certainly secure in the hands of such capable and optimistic persons. And these persons can, in every way, sur- pass the old when completed. They can be assured that their patience and optimism will not go unheeded. Everyone will then realize the worth of their enduring faith in the individuals at the helm of the reconstruction movement. Everyone will then realize the worth of the NEW Venice High School, for it will have been completed only after a long and arduous period of inconvenience. Let us make the NEW school one of which we and our successors, as well as the alumni, may be proud. Let us do this by not only preserving the beauty of our present campus or the beauty of our new STRUCTURE when it is completed, but also by preserving the Venice SPIRIT that has been present during this period. Let us maintain with dignity and decorum that quality which characterizes all loyal Venetians-be forever rowingl' towards higher ideals. The Venice of tomorrow will be only what we of the Venice of today make it. Do we want a school STRUCTURE such as the one described above? Do we want a SPIRIT such as that described above? The answer rests with us. 706'V 'U' ,WMQQMMM W ,Jwwff 7 'M ! I AIXL7.

E. W. CLARK PRINCIPAL 66 GMMENCEMENT Day should be taken literally as a day when onc's education begins. Foundations are laid in the grades and in the high schools. Superstructures are begun after graduation and reared gradually day by day, year by year as long as life lasts. The building is completed only when life has been completed. In other words our education never ends. If we are wise in our choices we will build a citizenship stronger, a character truer, and our life structure will be more noble, with the passing of each birthday. A life need not be long in order to rear a noble structure. Witness the life of the two whose structure was completed at nineteen. Happy, however, is the aged lnan who can say I have lived, in comparison to the young rnan who can only say I hope to live. Do your best day by day and life's record will take care of itself.

R. B. SHAW Boys' VicefPrincipal VICE-PRINCIP The Gondolier staff is to be congratuf lated on its choice of theme. It does not take long to learn that one gets from life's situations just what he puts into them. The football player who attends a game as a spectator gets vastly more en- joyment from the game as a result of his knowledge of the ine points of play and his own experiences in similar situations. In other words having given of his best to the game he is now reap' mg his reward. Foreign travel is another striking ilf lustration. The ignorant vagabond gets nothing from his contact with the won' ders of another civilization, but the pleas' ures these same wonders give to the stu' dent are limited only by what the stu' dent gave to an understanding of their meaning, wisdom, and aptness. It is because this principle holds throughout all of life's contacts that I forsee for you boundless gifts of the best the world can offer, but you must give your best always. Your friend in this great experience of life, R. B. SHAW, Boys' VicefPrincipal. Mas. M. L. SALLEE Girls' VicefP1'incipal ALS' MESSAGES Like the winds of the sea are the winds of fate, As we voyage along through life, 'Tis the set of the soul That decides its goal And not the calm or the strife. We should all have an aim in life and surely it would be better to have a lower aim than not to have an aim at all. We should be sure of the thing we want to do, be sure of the place we want to get and be sure of the person we want to be. There is always something that gives life a meaning and purpose. What it is that gives life a meaning and a purpose to you is the thing that holds for you the possibility of happiness in life after school days are over. The meaning and purpose of life is different for each individual. It was Lincoln who said, I have an inexpress' ible desire to live till I can be assured that the world is a little better for my having lived in it. My good wishes for your success, MAMIE L.

The tasks and pleasures just completed at Venice High make foundae tions for us to stand upon as we are def ciding where next to turn. My pleasure at Venice High was much enhanced by the confidence which you showed by choosing me as your presif dent. I hope that all the joy and satisfacf tion which I had was reflected toward each of you individually. The rebuilding of our school seems assured for the near future. It is my earnest wish that every advantage will come to you all upon that occasion. JERRE CARLSON The past semester has been an ex' perience that will prove invaluable to me in later years, and I have you, the student body, to thank for it. I only hope that I have been the kind of president that you wanted. As a word of advice, let me say again that which was said at the beginning of the termMone gets out of this world only what he puts into it. Time and again has its truth been proved, not only concerning the good, but also the bad that people do. May the old Venice spirit continue with the new school which is now being built. The answer is up to the student body.

'34 The climax of twelve years of preparation through elementary and high school was realized by 108 Venice students on January 31. Most of those who received their diplomas had made the journey uneventfullyg others, either quicker or slower than average, had made the trip either more rapidly or less rapidly than their classmates. On the whole, however, it was a class superior to the average in ability and accomplishments. Twofthirds of the members of the Central Committee, the governing body of the school, were Seniors. Seniors formed the nuclei of most of the athletic teams. They led in social activities, and were the guiding lights of most of the schoo-l's organizations. Withal, the talents of the members of the W'34 class werefwidely and evenly distributed. Music and art, leadership, athletic ability, superior scholarship, all of the multitude of talents which are so valuable in preparing one for future business success, were represented here, in this class. In February 1928, there entered Venice High 143 seventh graders. The group was very ordinary in appearance, causing no comment upon the part of the upper' classmen, other than the timefhonored, But, they're so little. It seems as though the 'scrubs' are getting smaller every year. Even in those early days, however, qualities of leadership were displayed by some. At that time, each recitation class elected a president, upon whose shoulders fell the duty of conducting the Friday program, lead' ing flag salutes, presiding over recitations at times, it was a grand way of developing leadership. Through later years, during the time of the daily homeroom system and the organization of classes, the same students displayed their abilities as leaders. As was true in the case of the class of Wl34, so is it true in the case of every class, every business, every organization. The tendency to lead will be recognized. So, the leaders and outstanding members of the class of W'34 became such not by chance, but by practice and habit, and their graduation, although a climax to their school career, was just the beginning of their real life. 15' .I Hnmmm W, ..,Q,,.,, .KW IWmmm,,.,,1...i.:,.,, W W- p5a?f1.Y55'Iunr1WpnuuumunuI11uwqgI ..... .I.wy,:m:...3g:mnIIIgIgnunrmpxwunuuwullllm WHmmmIWW:W2 'ff5fW 'HFw1iMgllLr1:1l5:J ' !I1Q'fmvlIlFfWEW H Il - WSQW-Rniivfowfmlwl65f1l1 f 59I....u1m I I I IIIIIII Rm I I I .R I I tl A-l5aIH'kilm-sh:1.15RilluH- . - .fimlf-Qaglfhm R6R5FJnmM1QHHHIJMEzilmnwzifmmmliiiiiifbmumlmwmwwnu 'l5lIll.I.LlIlllllIlIlllI.IJllJJ'Pl'NQ UI1l1lIll1'lUlllllmllu1: llnnwlmmllW'''wifi'-lllQl'ilKlUlJllWll'tWIlIIllUx..ulkhl I L, A,,A,, L,,R....,.

After two years of initiation into the intricacies of high school life they became freshmen, the last word in sophistication. Some of the fair youths felt the urge to display their physical prowess, and early added to the annals of sports history. Entrance into the 10th grade marked the real beginning of their high school careers, Many became interested in political affairs of the school, while various club activities occupied the time of others. As juniors, life became more complicated as various individuals assumed a definite place in school life. Then came that memorable September when the metaf morphosis reached its final stage, and a new group of Senior Bee's blossomed forth. The Senior Ayes started their last semester by having a large majority on the Central Committee. They made a big hit with their sweaters of red and white, which were presented in an assembly that was featured by a message from an airplane, a mad professor and a mystic . Senior Ayes made up for the most part the leading oflicers of the clubs. Graduation! Soft colors-Mliquid melody pouring out into eternity-flower scented air-hushed voices and tear dimmed eyes-sunset fading into dusk-a great class be' came alumni, passing on to noble accomplishments.

DEBATE Debate lost some of its prestige at Venice. due to the lack of an auditorium in which to speak. However, debaters worked diligently on such questions as Ref solved: That The Sales Tax Be Repealedfl A Venetian team composed of Leonard Dinowitz and Jack Cunningham debatedifthis question negatively at Los Angeles High. Although they lost the decision, Cunningham was awarded second speaker and Dinowitz fourth. The affirmative was debated at Venice by Charles Crouch and Bernard Blue. The former won first speaker. Resolved: That Capital Punishment Be Abolishedw was debated negatively against Santa Ana by Leo Firetag and Naida Sparks at Venice. The judges cast theirs votes unanimously in favor of Venice, giving Naida and Leo first and second speakers respectively. JUNIOR AND SENIOR DRAMATICS The senior play is no more! This will be so until a new auditorium is built. In its place the Senior Dramatics class gave several one act plays. The most important of these was Cappy Explains , a very hilarious production which was performed not only before the entire student body, but in various civic halls. 30 N 5 X X 3 L COSMOPOLITAN CLUB With Creating World Friendship as its aim, the Cosmopolitan club, under the sponsorship of Miss Laura Danielson, made and sent to Japan a book on the United States.

The first appearance of the senior Girls' Glee club, under the direction of Miss Blevvett, was a Christmas program in the girls' gym. The string class and the glee club combined their talents to present a successful recital, while the girls staged an even' ing program for their parents and friends during music week. Several social affairs were enjoyed by the group. The senior Boys' Glee club, directed by Mr. Cox, has been especially Outstandf ing during the past term. With a membership of about 40 enthusiastic singers, the club sang at the Ship Cafe for a civic program, over the radio several times, and at churches and theatres. Fan mail was received from the four corners of the United States as a result of the boys' singing on the radio. The Boys' Octet enjoyed the busif est year in its history, the talents of its members surpassing those of all other similar organizations at Venice. The senior band, famed throughout the West for its splendid formations, added zest to the football season by playing and marching at every league game. At a foot' ball carnival in the Coliseum the band marched and played with the bands of all city high schools, and received much applause from the 60,000 sepectators for its crack appearance. XV ith Mr. Schlosser wielding the baton, the group played over the radio and at a church in Los Angeles. The Southern California Festival of The Allied Arts Contest, held in Los An' geles on June 9, found the Senior Band, Boys' and Girls' Glee clubs, the octet and the sextet ready to win blue ribbons for Venice. The results were not able to be ob' tained in time for publication. SENIOR BAND First roiv: Van Buskirk, Bean, Howard, Klein, Fisher, Wild, Altman, Steitz, Mathias, Wright, Wire, Van Elk.

VARSITY FOOTBALL Staging a wonderful comeback in midfseason, after dropping the first two grid encounters, the Venetian varsity eleven, under the helm of G. O. Turney, pulled through with victories over Marshall and Hamilton and thus ended the season in third place. The Blue and White backfield consisted of Donovan, Owens, and Parif sini, halfbacksg McClellan and Durnell, quarterbacksg and Barney Lescoulie and Liles, fullbacks. Un the forward 'vfzfll Hale and Wilde took over the ends, Eldridge, Jacobs, and Benne, tackles, John Lescoulie, Marrs, and Ashburn, guards, and Glover, center. Beverly gained an early lead in the first grid encounter when Molin skirted his left end for the opening score. Donovan, on a line buck, carried the ball over to tie the count in the third quarter. Peplow crashed through the Venetian forward wall in the last period, making the final score Beverlyfl2, Venicef6. A Washington scoring parade in the second quarter overwhelmed the Gondof liers, 2Of6 in their second league game. The Hurneyfmen held by far the best end of the playing in all but this period. Donovan tallied for Venice in the opening quarter. In the third league encounter the Venetians made up their minds to go to town, and the result was a l3fO victory over Marshall. After a sustained drive in the first period, McClellan went over from the four yard line. In the third quarter Donovan crossed the line from the four yard stripe for the second score. Hamilton's football squad was buried, l9f6, when a fiery Venetian eleven balked a deceptive passing attack and swept to a victory overfthe Yanks. ln the opening quarter Donovan scored from the four yard line. McClellan wentover from the six yard stripe for the second touchdown. A pass to Hale made the final score. 40 .r was . X mi H 'll 'l'liH!!9f 'V41'!1Zi1fi W--Nutt 'wimrm nl migmllgrnaml EQ'F39?i'?

The lineup included McConnell, Carlucci, Gres, and Polk, halfbacksg Mario Gravante and Brandelli, quarterbacks, Frank Gravante, fullbackg White, Brightman and Bankey, .endsg Def Ghionno and McRae, tacklesg Bible, Okamoto, and Firetag, guards, and Roof, center. A pass from Frank Gravante to Brightman in the final quarter of the Beverly game placed the ball in scoring territory, and Cottonftop McConnell carried the pig' skin nineteen yards for the only touchdown of the tilt, the final score being 8fO as the result of a blocked kick recovered by Venice in Beverly's end Zone. Riepulsing a determined General passing attack, deep in Venice territory as the result of two blocked kicks, the Gondoliers downed Washington, 6fO, in their second league game. Babe Brandelli went over from the one foot line late in the third quarter for the only score of the game. Intercepting a Marshall pass in midfield with only seconds left in the game, Cottonftop McConnell ran 45 yards to a touchdown, changing what seemed to be a certain scoreless tie into a 6fO Venetian victory. The Gondoliers' goal was threatened but once. In the iirst quarter Wright, of Marshall, intercepted Gravante's pass and was downed on the Hughesfmen's ten yard line. The fighting Venice lightweights nabbed their third straight Western League title and kept clean their record of not having been scored upon in three years when they trounced Coach Jasper Riney's eleven to- the sweet tune of 290. Venice scored in every quarter and was continually making long' runs through the Yanks' line. 41 tif 'J J, 1 jf tifpfdiili vji ' ' ,mluumnu mymmlmmymmmwmm gnf-X1,,'LlIlllbll lllqlllllllllllllll n-N w l' luv mu L mmm mu uunnqummurm mmmuuuumu llllljnlllll Mr lllllillk Hllilm Wu lf' wh ilulil, MW I H' ' l 'lNlW -XLL I li 'HU 'lui in In ll ulmlullulllnulh K5 lllkuhwimtnlmminllluiirlv nb umm 'mu all my J MNAB X U Iulumuiillllilrl rm I IIB uluma:nlnnaluillillliilllllllllllll ,lQlW!MlMQlQllllU ' f . rl I- .. ...- - ..,,,.. ,N .Il-!'E':2i-. ..,.., . . , 1 : ' ' in llhlll A .

Bob Bushman led the individual performances by nabbing both the century and 220, while Captain Kenny Neal and Walkey took first places in the 220 low hurdles and high jump respectively. Neal continued his victories in the 220 lows, taking first in every dual meet, and Bushman and Don Cwens marked up their shares of points in the sprints.

Under the captainship of Aileen Horgan, the mighty Swastikas were spurred on to victory in this sport. The Tahitians, Olympiads, and Topflights were not so fortunate, and although they gave the Swastikas much to worry about, they were unable to take first place. Basketball season, favorite of all, proved to be both thrilling and brilliant. The Tahitians, captained by Theodora Wuertemburg, turned out to be the superiors in fighting spirit and ability, and came through the finals with flying colors. The' Swasf tikas, Olympiads, and Topflights displayed unusual playing ability in this game alf though they did not manage to become champions. Tennis found widefspread favor among the girls this year. It is being recognized more and more as an invigorating, pleasurable pastime and the number of tennis enf thusiasts has increased considerably. Coached by Miss Miles, the beginners and old' timers alike were eager to learn. Frances Boswell and Thelma Savage, representing the Topflights, showed steady and forceful playing and won the championship for tennis. Hockey season finished successfully with the Swastikas, captained by Goldie Holman, winning the championship. The result of the hockey games meant tying points for the plaque with the Tahitians. The Swastikas at the end of the season tied one and won two games, while the Tahitians won one game and tied two. Archery is also a popular sport with the girls and this yearls team is reputed to have been exceptional. Three of this group have managed to make the highest scores during the entire term. They are Thelma Savage, Ruth Robertson, and Doris Howard. The instructor of this sport is Miss Clive Miles. G.A.A. First rozc: Miyake, Uchigfoshi, Hozman, Ahern, Horgan, F.
