Text from Pages 1 - 90 of the 1941 volume:

★ Published by the Sen ior Class uinsHincTon union high school At Centerville, California ★ This year is the celebration of the 50th Com ' mencement of Washington Union High School. We, the Senior Class of 1941 are most proud and happy to dedicate this issue of our Washing ' tonian to the 50th Commencement in token of our sincere appreciation of the efforts made by our community to provide an education for us and also in appreciation of the many happy times we have spent in our school. n j Our Washington Union High School Have we ever wondered about our school’s past? When was it started? What have been its triumphs, its progress, and its failures? Let us look into the past years and see what our school has done. Washington Union High School was started in 1892 in one room on the lower floor of the old Masonic Hall. The entrance was five feet wide and extended along the side of the building, where seats had been placed at one end for recitation. The laboratory equipment consisted of a 2,inc lined box, a faucet and a drain pipe. (If we had to work with such equipment, wouldn’t we feel abused?) The library was a new set of the Encyclopedia Britannica and a few other books. Even though there were only twenty-four students, they had eighteen separate classes all taught by their principal, Mr. William Wentworth; but soon Miss Crocker was added to the staff. As the number of students increased, plans were made for a school build¬ ing. The site was chosen on the Niles-Centerville road, and when the build¬ ing was completed the students joyfully moved to their new quarters. Our school continued to grow in numbers and in activities, and sports played an important part in the school life. Let us go back to Football in 1899. After a fairly successful season, the school decided to enter the Academic Athletic League. The first opponent, Oakland High, fell under Washington’s blows, being defeated with a score of 16 to 0. Then a game with Lowell High of San Francisco loomed in sight—the winner to play Belmont for the State Championship. Friends of the team got the services of Jack Craig, famous U. C. end, to give the team some coaching. After two weeks of diligent practice the team met Lowell High in a game played in a sea of mud, which did not bother Washington for she was used to playing in this sort of field. Washington emerged from the mud as victor, after playing water-polo for most of the game. Then tv o more weeks of hard work, and the game with Belmont was at hand. The two teams played until exhausted; still neither team gave that added punch so vital in football. After the scoreless game, a second was arranged. This was a duplicate of the first. League officials refused when Washington tried to secure a third game, so Washington Union High tied for the honor of state championship. It was a fortunate day in 1905 when Mr. George Whitfield Wright came to our school. Finding only a college preparatory course, M r. Wright added the homemaking and shop courses and a commercial department to o m school. Mr. Wright was lovingly called ‘Trof’’ by the students who have many fond memories of him such as these: The football team had won several games and the boys were getting a little cocky. It was time for roll call and the students were assembled in the Study Hall. As Mr. Wright took roll, he quoted, as he so often did, from the Bible— ' Wherefore let him that thinkest he standest, take heed lest he fall.’ ” It was time for the World Series. The class in algebra was wondering why they should bother about X and Y, when there were such interesting things to think about as baseball. Mr. Wright quietly stepped into the room and wrote on the board N. Y. 6, Phil. 3, and with a twinkle in his eye went out without saying a word. Class and teacher smiled and somehow algebra seemed worth while after all.” The Hatchet, a two column paper, was the pride and joy of the students in 1916. The paper was due to Philip Griffen and Kelly” Wales and their adviser R. O. Moyer. The origin of the Hatchet is interesting. It was born in the library,” said Mr. Griffen, we wanted a paper, so we decided that Washington’s Hatchet might be regarded as an instrument used to bring deceit to an end. Therefore, we decided that our paper, the Washington Hatchet, should be an agency o be utsed to end and deceit that might crop up to keep truth from growing, so that the better growth might be in no danger of being crowded out. Secondly, it was something different with the necessary pep and life, just enough of a pu 2 , 2 ,ler and not too deep.” The Hatchet was published twice a year; but when the persons interested left school, it was discontinued. upon the arrival of Mr. Kibby m 1920, an old printing press was salvaged, and the Hatchet was continued again. All down through the years The Hatchet has enlarged, progressed, and expanded under its very able editors and assistants. A student body organi2;ation was what the students in 1922 decided they wanted, and little “Doc Sweeney” was appointed temporary chairman until permanent officers could be chosen. The campaign was a hot one, as the Juniors wished to have one of their own for president, but the Seniors thought differently. Finally, after a heated campaign, Lewis Musick was unanimously elected the first Student Body President of Washington High. Soon after, the constitution was written through the combined efforts of the newly elected president, Lewis Musick; the English Instructor, Miss Thelma Thoming; and Coach Edwards. In 1924, the present building was completed. This splendid school was due largely to the efforts of Mr. Wright who labored tirelessly to attain it. Unfortunately he passed away about a week after the building was com pleted, but he had lived to see his dream fulfilled. Washington needed a gym, and one of the best in the state was the dream of Principal Hodges and the Board of Trustees, who spent much time plan ' ning the building, which was to fulfill the needs not only of the day it was built, but also of the future when the school would be larger. In 1930 con ' struction was begun and completed. No debts were necessary, for the build ' ing was paid for with the savings accumulated during the previous years. We are all proud of our gym, which has seen many happy gatherings. It has given us much joy, and will give the students of tomorrow much pleasure also. The shop building was also erected at this time. Washington may justly be proud of her famous athletes who have brought honor to their school. Among them are Ezra Decoto and football players Larry Bettencourt, A1 Leonardo, Bart Thane and James and John Whipple. The baseball players include Fred Muller and Leonard Dondero. Judge Allan Norris was National Intercollegiate Pole Vault Champion. In 1931 Mr. A. J. Rathbone became principal and the last ten years of our school life have seen many improvements, both in the courses of study and in the grounds and buildings. At the beginning of the present administration, the Agriculture depart ment was placed in the school under the Smith Hughes Act. Since then it has broadened and improved in many ways furnishing some of our most interesting and useful courses. The homemaking department has been greatly enlarged also. The seniors learn now, besides their cooking and sewing, catering, house designing, and child care. In the languages, Spanish has been added and English has been greatly improved. Many courses of English are now available; such as English IV A —-preparing seniors for their college entrance exams. Public Speaking, Busi ness English, and English R. to improve the reading of the students. In general every department has been enlarged and improved to meet changing educational needs. Our buildings have been improved and added to also. Among the first improvements were placing of stationary seats in the auditorium, purchas ing of a fleet of buses, and the planting of lawns. Our excellent football field was added, and soon the softball field, equipped for night playing, made the athletic fields complete. Especially in these last few years have we seen many changes .We now have large bleachers, which seat three thousand and enable us to hold com mencement outdoors, a very modern cafeteria, and a well equipped Art Building. All in all, don’t you think we owe our trustees and our administration a vote of thanks for their great interest in us and in our school?

WILSON HAWLEY LYONS REES THORNBURG WRIGHT FACULTY BOARD OF TRUSTEES Each succeeding year our Board of Trustees makes outstanding additions to the improvement of the school. This year the enrichment of the curricu¬ lum is their main contribution. The trend is toward a more liberal curricu¬ lum offering extra opportunities to the non-college students. A homemaking class is required of all freshmen girls this year because of its varied worth. Also freshmen students all take physical Education the same period and consequently benefit by special work giving them a strong background in sports and hygiene. Latin is no longer a prerequisite for Spanish, so Spanish is now open to freshmen as well as upper classmen. Algebra has been changed from a 9th year to a 10th year course and Geo¬ metry to 11th year. Remedial reading is to be given in regular English classes so that all students may benefit from this training. An opportunity class has been formed emphasizing vocational guidance while college prep students have a new course available to help them learn to take lecture notes, use the library, and do supplementary work. A new double period commer¬ cial course stressing practical business situations, made its debut this year, while in the interest of better citizenship, American Problems has become a compulsory senior course. The board has made it possible to start classes in tractor, auto mechanics, and carpentry, as a result of provisions in the National Defense Program. Student Body Members greatly appreciate the many services of our board, Mr. Overacker, Mr. Harrold, Mr. Logan, Mr. Oliviera, and Mr. Scott. They especially wish to thank Mr. Scott, who is retiring this year after nine years of devoted service to the school. MR. LOGAN MR. HARROLD MR. OLIVEIRA MR. t)VERACKER MR. SCOTT ADMINISTRATION Ever y ship needs a captain, every nation needs a government, and we well know that every successful school needs a competent and efficient administrative system. Because of our hard-working staff another success¬ ful year has been completed. Our principal, Mr. Rathbone, has constantly worked at a gradual en¬ largement program to meet the needs of a rapidly growing school. He and his associates have attended many conferences and conventions in order to obtain new ideas which might benefit the school. To this end he organised the first rural coordinating council in the nation. This group represents vari¬ ous civic organi2;ations of the community and act as an advisory group in connection with youth problems in our community. Other members of the staff have also been constantly working for the im¬ provement of the school. Mrs. Morse, dean of girls, has been a kind and patient friend to all of us. Her services will be greatly missed next year. “Pop” Goold, dean of boys, has always been ready to give friendly, ex¬ perienced advice. Miss Knoles, director of curriculum plans the schedule of courses each year. To our administrative force, who have so willingly given us their assis¬ tance, we of the Senior Class bid farewell and extend our thanks for our many happy days at Washington. STUDENT COUNCIL Our able president, Mervin Telles, has by his excellent leadership enabled the Student Council to successfully complete its tenth year of service to the school. This year the Cou ncil tried out an entirely new idea. The Freshmen were invited to attend a regular meeting in order that they might become acquainted by observation with the student government of the school. One of the biggest services rendered the school by the council is planning the assembly schedule. A great deal of variety in assembly types holds in¬ terest. Some are paid professionals and the others student talent. This year we were fortunate to have mostly student talent. Mr. Rathbone is the adviser to this group.

HARRY USHIJIMA Yell Leader SENIOR CLASS With the completion of four memorable years at Washington Union High, the Senior Class looks back over them with pride. This final year has been a most enjoyable one. Among the outstanding Senior activities were the four senior nights. Two of these were class parties held in the gymnasium in November and March. The other two were skat ' ing parties in January and April which proved very successful. On May 2 the class acted a s hosts to all the 8th grade pupils of the towiv ship on our annual Eighth Grade Day. The seniors were guests at the alumni dinner held in the school cafeteria on April 29. They also enjoyed a day of fun on May 19, when they were excused from school for their annual sneak day. ' ' He Who Hesitates,’ ' a comedy, was given by the Class as their senior play on May 28. They also enjoyed the senior breakfast which was served on June 10, and on this same day they gave their last assembly program, where the usual ceremony of the reseating of the lower classes took place. A total of 143 members of the class of 1941 were graduated at exercises held on the football field on the evening of June 12 with the events dedi ' cated to the 50th commencement of our school. The Senior Ball, held on June 13, ended the many successful activities of the Senior Class. The Senior Advisers were Mr. Morse, Miss Fournier, Miss E. Wilson, Miss Stockholm, Mr. Kibby, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Brown. 20 STEPHEN ADAMS ALLEN AMARAL LESTER AMARAL GENEVIEVE ANDRADE GEORGE ANDRADE CARMEN ARIZA KATHERINE AZEVADA FRANK BARRETT RONALD BARTON ROLAND BENDEL EDWARD BERNARD SHIRLEY BERTOLOTTI EDWARD BETTENCOURT FLORENCE BETTENCOURT DARLENE BOLYARD WILLIAM BORBA JOSEPHINE BORGES MERVIN BOYCE RUDOLPH BRAZIL ELIZABETH BREWER PELISIMO CABARAN LORETTA CAETON EDWARD CALDEIRA LYDIA CAMINADA DOUGLAS CAYARD CLEO COOPER HELEN CORDENIZ ELEANOR COSTA SENIORS MARYLIN CRITCHFIELD ORION DUNBAR TRAVIS DUNGAN RUDOLPH ENOS MARGARET ESCOBAR MURYEL A.

The evening was dedicated to the Seniors, who were presented with small favors. Another Junior activity was the pre¬ sentation of a Bob Hope assembly on January 24, which was received en¬ thusiastically by the Student Body. The Juniors took part in all school activities showing much talent in the Student Body Play, Christmas Pageant, Vodvil and Sports. Many of the Juniors will be the star players of the football, basketball and baseball teams next year. The Juniors were awarded second place in the “Song and Yell Contest.” 26 President_ Vice-President.

Their first big success was the winning of the song and yell contest in October. Next they decorated the halls, auditorium, and the entrance to the main building with garlands of greens and lights for the Christmas season. They also cared for the museum case in the upper hall. The Sophomores took part in many of the school productions, including the Student Body Play, Christmas Pageant, and the Vodvil. Both boys and girls participated in sports. They also gave a sport dance, skating party, and assembly which were enjoyed by all students of the school. 28 President.......Kenneth Calhoun f Vice-President.Edward Bradl Secretary.....Ebba Rae Benbow Treasurer.Nicholas Reina Yell Leader ...Tommy Nitta Student Council Representative.Ine2; Fong Girls ' League Representative.Beatrice Dutra Girls ' League Representative..-..Marjorie Brunelli Advisers: Mrs. Jones, Miss J.

After the Freshmen were initiated by the Seniors, they immediately took part in all activities. On February 14, the Freshmen gave a Valentine dance, with red hearts serving as an appropriate theme. They also gave two successful skating parties. Many Freshmen took part in the Student Body Play, Christmas Pageant, Vodvil, Sports and other school activities.

GIRLS LEAGUE The prime purpose of founding the Girls’ League was to establish an o’ ' - ganization that would bring the girls closer together and create a feeling of unity, friendliness, and school spirit among them, as well as to discourage snobbishness and the formation of cliques. The Girls’ League has always stood for hospitality, welcome, unselfishness and the refinements of school life. It was founded in 1919 by Miss E. Marie Sandholt with Miss Marietta Edwards as its first president. The league was one of the first of its kind in California. However, many have sprung up since then. Several Federations have been formed in the state, one at San Mateo, in October of 1922, of which our league is a charter member. This year the Federation meeting was held at Berkeley and was attended by Mrs. Morse, Dean of Women, with Joy Brown and Winifred Santos as student representatives. Some of our yearly activities are: Mothers’ Day Tea and Fashion Show, Cotton Cluster Day, Football Dinner, BigTittle Sister Tea, Christmas Canned Food Drive and Vocational Teas. The present officers are: Margaret Schelbert, president; Winifred Santos, Vice-President; Loretta Caeton, Secretary; and Dorothy Bettencourt, Treasurer. The committee chairmen are: Mary Cattaneo, Ways and Means; Pat Rose, Hospitality; and Cleone West, Program. SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY Boasting a total of thirty-nine members, Chapter 111 of the California Scholarship Federation began its year’s activities by attending a convention 3-t Treasure Island on September 28, 1940. Next on the program was the annual assembly given on October 24. Early in the year, approximately thirty members went on a tour of the University of California, where they visited points of interest on the cam¬ pus. On February 23, the Santa Clara Chapter extended an invitation to a dinner which ten members attended. In order to apply for membership in the Scholarship Society, a student must earn ten points during the preceding semester. A, in a solid subject merits three points; B, in a solid one point; A, in a half-solid one and one- half points; B, in a half-solid one-half point. A student may also earn two points for extra-curricular activities. A member who remains in the society for six semesters receives a gold seal on his diploma and a gold scholarship pin signifying life membership. Shirley Bertolotti, Flatsuye Hayashi, and Betty Jane Steinholf have already qualified for this honor and will receive their gold pins on Graduation Day. There are several more Seniors who may receive their pins, if they qualify during their last semester. Officers for this term have been: Cleone West, president; Joy Brown, vice-president; Rudolph Bra 2 ,il, secretary-treasurer; Patricia Costa, program chairman; Miss Nold, adviser.

Assisting the editor were the associate editors, Cleone West, Leontine Rose, and Johnny Williamson. Roy Mathiesen and George Smith were Business Manager and Associate Manager, respectively. This year ' s fine sports editing was under the leadership of Joe Ishida, who had f several boys working with him as sports reporters. The staff was composed i of thirty-five reporters and feature writers. On November 2 eighteen members of the staff attended a convention held at the University of California where problems of high school publica- tions were discussed and where they attended the Galifornia-Oregon State football game. All returned full of enthusiasm for a year of work on the j paper. The Hatchet is a four page paper issued every other week. Various school activities and general subjects are found on the first page. Editorials, The Principal ' s Corner, Book Review, Cartoons, and jokes are placed on the second page. News of the Agriculture, Homemaking, and Art subjects and the Who ' s Who column are on the third page. On the last page are found all the boys ' and girls ' sports news and a column by the Sports Editor. The i paper is under the supervision of Miss Grace Knoles and Mr. H. Kibby. 36 WASHINGTONIAN Each year the annual staff tries to choose a timely theme for their book; Treasure Island provided a theme last year, and this year “Patriotism is the keynote of the Washingtonian. In keeping with this idea, the art staff has designed four section pages portraying four important periods in United States history—the Revolutionary War; the 1820’s; the Civil War; and finally, the spirit of American Youth Today. In addition the staff has cele¬ brated Washington Union High School’s fiftieth commencement by devot¬ ing four of the Washingtonian’s pages to the “Golden Jubilee.’’ The staff of the ’41 Washingtonian has really worked to make it a success. Special credit goes to Toshio Shio 2 ;aki, Jim Uchiyama, and Jack Pool for the hard work and the hours they spent on the photography, to the art staff in recognition of the effort which made the section pages possible, and to Barbara Williams for her work as rewriter, and to Mr. Kibby and the boys in the Print Shop who made the covers. The staff extends its thanks to all who have helped to make the ’41 Wasingtonian a success and hope that its readers enjoy it as much as the staff has enjoyed working on it. The annual staff includes: Editor-In-Chief, W. Santos; Assistants, S. Bertolotti, C. Cooper; Business Manager, W. Martin; Advertising, L. Moise, R. Garcia, E. Justus, J. Gomes, G.

BOYS’ “W” CLUB “Sportsmanship” is the goal of the Boys’ Block “W” Club. This does not mean a victorious team in every game played. If a game is well organized and cooperative, win or lose, the goal has been well achieved. The “W” Club is open to boys who participated in sports, and admittance can be gaim ed only after spending a required number of minutes on the playing field and earning a Block “W”. Block holders may earn Stars through playing. The organization’s program included their social events—dances and parties, including a very successful skating party. One of the outstanding events of their year was a fine barbecue to celebrate the initiation of new members. The officers who served during the past year were Mervin Boyce, President; Don Furtado, Vice President; Danny Mannix, Secretary and Treasurer; and Coach Taylor, who acted as their adviser. The Boys’ “W” Club has encouraged higher standards in the quality of performance and in the sportsmanship exhibited by the players, and their efforts have served to increase the attendance at basketball and other games. Because of the cooperation of the “W” Club and the rest of the Physical Education department, Washington’s games have become more enjoyable to both players and the spectators. GIRLS’ “W” CLUB Through regular participation in inter-class games, a girl may become a member of the Girls’ “W” Club. This year the required number of points to earn a block was increased from 600 to 700 because of the addition of another major sport to the girls’ athletic program. An additional 250 points entitles her to a star. These blocks and stars may be earned by being on the second team as well as the first team. This gives the girl who is merely eager to participate in sports a chance to earn her points as well as the girls who have attained skill in the various sports. During the year the “W” Club members participated in many activities. The first among these was the initiation party. Get together parties were held several times during the year. The Club received numerous invitations from other schools and colleges inviting the girls to attend their Play Days this year. Some of these were accepted and the girls who made the trips reported them worth while. The “W” Club entertained the Hayward, Amador, and Livermore girls this year on the annual sports field day. This big event is always one of the most important dates on the calendar. The officers for the year were: President, Alexia Le2,and; Vice-President, Helen Guardanapo; Secretary and Treasurer, Helen Cordeniz;; Yell Leader, Alberta Nunes; and Advisers were Miss Griffen, and Miss Shumay.

BAND The Band has again won flying colors for its appearances and perfor¬ mances throughout the year. Besides attracting the crowd with their fine playing, the 36 members display color too with their new orange and black uniforms, purchased by the Student Body. As in previous years the band plays at football games both at home and out of town. The spirited music helps the team on to victory. During the half-times of games the band makes a brilliant display by marching up the field with out high-stepping majorettes Doris Alcaraz,, LaVerne Gomes, Jessie Seoane, Charlotte Lewis and Jacqueline Burtch, led by Winifred Santos. This year the members had the opportunity to play at Livermore at the annual Armistice Day Football game. They also enjoyed their participation in the Hayward Pet Parade. This year in addition to marches and regular band music the Band has taken up concert music which they have presented to the school on several occasions. The Band also participated in the Music Department’s Assembly Pro¬ gram which was held during the latter part of the year and which was received most enthusiastically by the Student Body. Mr. Thornburg is the leader of the Band. 40 FUTURE FARMERS The Washington Chapter of the Future Farmers of America, with a membership of sixty, has carried out an extremely successful program dur ing the past year. The most outstanding activities of the year 1940 41 im eluded a program for the improvement of projects, night meetings, participa tion in state and county fairs, the annual skating party, the Future Farmers’ Dance, essay and public speaking contest, and the compiling of a bound mimeographed F. F. A. Year Book. Summertime as well as school time saw the Future Farmers carrying on their activities. Showing their projects at the Pleasanton and Antioch Fairs last summer, the boys won more than one hundred ribbons and three hundred dollars in pri2,es, as well as obtaining a great deal of favorable publF city. Last fall Joe Schelbert, Mervin Telles and Clarence Pimentel represent ed the Washington Chapter at Camp Lillard, the Future Farmers’ State Fair Camp. From Camp Lillard they visited the Fair and were present at the judging of livestock. Our Chapter played host to the entire student body at the annual Future Farmer Dance, given on October 31, and at the assembly program which took place on January 17. The program was composed of a short play entitled Caesar,” with John Reina acting as master of ceremonies. Any resemblance to Shakespeare’s ' ' Julius Caesar” was purely coincidental.

' ■■ : The Future Farmers participated in a large number of social events during the course of the past year. They gave their annual Skating Party at Irvings ' ton on October 10, and it was pronounced one of their most successful to date. Two hundred Hayward Future Farmers were hosts to our chapter at a night meeting on January 28, and the Washington chapter was victorious in both of the basketball games played as entertainment. An innovation which the boys introduced this year was the Parent and Son Banquet, held in the school cafeteria and attended by more than two hundred people. Speeches were given by some of the boys and by some of the guests. Among the guest speakers were Mr. Hellwig, County Supervi sor; Mr. Scott, and Mr. Rathbone. The banquet was held in the form of a meeting and promises to become a yearly event. The Farmers’ ambitiously planned program was brought to a successful close under the leadership of the following officers: President, Mervin Telles; ViceTresident, Ed Bettencourt; Secretary, Minoru Hanamoto; Treasurer, Richard Laudenslager; Reporter, John Reina; Advisers, Mr Brown and Mr. Elsea; and by the unfailing cooperation of the members throughout the entire year. CLUBS Washington is fortunate in having many organizations which serve the two ' fold purpose of giving the students added enjoyment and making valu ' able contributions to our school life. The DRAMATICS CLUB introduced the student body at an assembly to some unexpected talent when it present ' ed the three-act mystery-comedy, “Laughing Gas,” under the direction of the club’s adviser. Miss Fournier. The cast included Beverly Adams, Mar¬ jorie Jackson, Marjorie Brunelli, Doris Alcaraz, Rolland Adams, John Machado, Bob Manley, Margery Hunt, and Henry Mariani. The members enjoy various activities other than dramatics. An initiation party with food and fun for all started the year for the thespians. They then held an ice skating party in Oakland and a swimming party and wienie roast at the Hayward Plunge. Although founded only two years ago, the Dramatics Club plays an increasingly important part in school affairs. The officers are: J. Pool, President; L. Holden, Secretary; M. Escobar, Vice-Pres. Last year Mrs. Morse and Miss Nold formed the ART CLUB to en¬ able art students to do special projects for which they hadn’t time in the regular art classes. Their work has frequently decorated the stage and gymnasium, and their flower arrangements placed throughout the school 42 have pleased us all. This spring the ART CLUB members sponsored sketch ing parties in the Niles Canyon and other points of beau ty. Students interested in nature study have enjoyed the activities of the NATURALIST S CLUB. Led by their officers Cleo Cooper, President; Lillian Harvey, Secretary; and Miss Nold, adviser—the nature lovers parti ' cipated in a trip to Chabot Observatory and a visit to Golden Gate Park. They have contributed to the school with an exhibition of wild flowers coL lected on various tramps through the hills. The CAMERA CLUB brings W ashington’s candid ' camera fans tO ' gether to learn different ways and techniques of taking and developing photographs. A highlight of the club’s activities was the annual snapshot contest, in which Margaret Schelbert won the pri 2 ie for the best pictures. The Camera Club has proved a great asset to the Washingtonian, making it possible to have more interesting picture pages. The officers are: Jack pool. President; Howard Alves, Secretary; and Miss Van Winkle, adviser. The INKLING is not a formal club but is open to all students iii ' terested in writing. Washington’s literary magazine, it is composed of ori ' ginal stories, essays, short sketches, and poems. The Inkling is under the direction of Miss Knoles. The printing is done in our print shop by students under the direction of Mr. Kibby. Every spring a day known as Inkling Day is set aside for all the English classes to do their writing. The best of their contributions are chosen for the maga2;ine, which is published in late May or early June. Another group which has not organized into a formal club, although it meets regularly, is composed of the students especially interested in HOME ' MAKING. The senior girls are the most active members of this group. Dun ing the year they participated in a fashion show held at Hayward High and made a tour of the San Francisco shops and markets. The girls have numerous activities at school. Throughout the year they have served dinners for various groups—the Eagles, Rotary Club, Co ' ordinating Council, Alumnae, and many others. In preparing these dinners the girls plan the menus, do the major part of the cooking, serve the food, and help clean up afterward, thus enabling individual Homemaking girls to give expert a ' sistance in preparing dinners at private homes. The girls especially interested in sewing made drapes and slip ' covers for the Girls’ League room, and the entire homemaking group has prepared refreshments for school parties and has made all the homemade candy for our candy sales, fulfilling its purpose of gaining experience and enjoyment at the same time. 43 STUDENT BODY PLAY A capacity audience attended this year ' s Student Body production, ' ' Aaron Slick of Funkin’ Crick,” held in the auditorium November 8, 1940. This rural comedy was well received, and much praise was accorded it by the local papers. Set in Oklahoma, the plot concerns the lives of the Widow Berry’s boarders. Hero Aaron Slick out smarts a speculator who tries to swindle the widow out of supposedly valuable oil land. Mrs. Berry makes a good profit; but after a taste of city life, she consents to marry Aaron Slick from Funkin’ Crick. The characters were well chosen and were ably portrayed as follows: Aaron Slick........Roy Mathiesen Mrs. Berry...-----.-.-.Sally Mayock Little Sis Riggs, the widow ' s helper.-...Marie Pierce Merridew, the swindler.....-.Bob Manley Gladys Merridew, his niece...Mary Cattaneo Clarence...-.- -..Rolland Adams Hotel Guests.Adele Bertolotti, Marjorie Brunelli, Lucille Greenfield, Joyce Karel, Nancy Stark, Virginia Wilson, Ruth Ziegler Specialty Dance...Harriet Dias Director...Miss Muriel Fournier CHRISTMAS PAGEANT As the soft strains of the organ music filtered through the air, an ap preciative audience with appropriate solemn mien again filled the audi- torium, when the Christmas Pageant, “A Christmas Eve, ’’’ was presented on December 15, 1940. The theme of the pageant centered around the welhknown story of the “Cathedral Chimes, ' ' which would not ring until the ' proper gift had been given at the altar. Stephen, portrayed by Roy Mathiesen, succeeded in making the chimes ring, when he presented his own humble gift of three copper pennies. Appropriate tableaux and the beautiful traditional Christ mas music made this pageant outstanding. Other characters included: Ted, Stephen’s brother...Andrew Lindsay Uncle Robert... .Anthony Maciel Orpah. Margaret Escobar Ruth. Shirley Bertolotti Naomi.......Elaine Justus The Old Woman. Barbara Williams The Priest...... .Richard Witherly Joseph.......Mervin Tellcs Mary.Mary Sumaquero The Attendants......Joaquin Naharro, Henry Mariani Organist...Mr. Thornburg Directors....Miss Stockholm, Mrs. Morse VODVIL Songs, dance novelties, skits and comedy comprised the Vodvil of 1941 which was presented on Thursday and Friday nights, February 20 and 2i. Under the co-masters-of-ceremonies, Joseph Lewis and Johnny William son, the first act began with “Early in the Morning,” featuring the Boys’ Double Quartet. Following were the “Tumblers,” “Birds,” a “Jungle Dance, a solo by Elaine Lewis, and “The Congo,” by the verse ' speaking choir. The “Accordion chorus,” “Sweethearts,” “Human Xylophone,” and the Shadow Act” followed. The curtain came down on the “Skaters,” featuring a solo by Yvonne Sinclair and a skate duet by Milliard Van Ike and Dorothy Amaral. The second act opened with “Fantasy,” and a vocal solo by Joy Brown. The Crystal Gazer” closed the second act. One of the highlights of the evening was a rhumba tap duet by Marie Pierce and Bob Manley. Comedy was provided by “Baby Snooks and Daddy,” portrayed by Mary Cattaneo and Roy Mathiesen. Shamrocks and Irish peasant girls added much to the success of the “Irish,” with Marie Avilla and Vernie Ray as soloists. Anita Cabaran, who sang “May I Never Love Again,” and Joaquin Naharro, who sang “Little Boy Love,” were enthusiastically received. Other stunts were the “Saxophone and Accordion Choruses,” “Gay 90’s,” “Giraffes,” followed by the “Majorettes,” who did a routine to Bugle Call Rag. Next were the Uncle Sam’s. This stunt featured Margery Hunt as tap soloist, and Geraldine Goularte and Lillian Franco in a tap duet. The Grand finale was unique. The Majorettes led in each group to form two concentric circles while the American flag was lowered in the back ' ground. At the same time. Uncle Sam was ushered into the center. The curtain came down as the whole cast sang, “Stars and Stripes Forever.” Mrs. S. Morse directed the production and Miss Evelyn Wilson and her sewing classes made the clever and beautiful costumes. Two hundred and seventy ' five students participated to make our annual 1941 Vodvil one of the best ever given. 46 SENIOR PLAY This year the class of 1941 chose for their senior play “He Who Hesi¬ tates, a romantic comedy concerning the complicated love affair of a young college graduate. The play was presented on Wednesday night, May 28. The cast was composed of the following; Judy Quigley..Laura Lee Zwissig Ollie Ness.Virgil Young Tom Fullerton. Frank Barrett Barbara Quigley.Bette Murphy Frankie .Lawrence Moise Don Quigley.Roland Bendel Cousin Harriet.Cleo Cooper Gwendolyn .Genevieve Andrade Phyllis.Darlene Bolyard Mrs. Ostoff.Shirley Bertolotti Mrs. Quigley.Margaret Escobar Mr. Quigley.Mervin Telles Director.Miss Fournier ASSEMBLIES This year the Student Council decided on Friday assemblies except dur¬ ing the football season, when assemblies would be held on Thursdays. To¬ gether with the serious side of the meeting, an entertaining program is al¬ ways scheduled. Several unique and interesting assemblies were presented this year. At the beginning of the year was the annual Freshman Initiation Assembly in which new talent and faces combined to make one of the outstanding pro¬ grams of the year. For their customary exchange program, Hayward presented a student production of “Our Town.” The three-hour play was a tremendous success and was enthusiastically received by everyone. Livermore presented their exchange assembly on May 22. Among the professional assemblies was the “Magician’s” program with Lee Grabel. Making another visit to the Washington Union High School were Howard Mulholland and his wife, professional actor and pianist. On March 7, Frank Elsaas and his Brass Choir from San Jose State College presented an arrangement of popular and classical music. The Dramatics Club deserves much credit for their splendid performance of “Laughing Gas,” a full three act comedy, revolving around a murder. Each school department presents an assembly sometime during the year. Some of the stellar performances were: The Future Farmers, Physics and Chemistry, Girls’ and Boys’ Physical Education, Scholarship So ciety, Pub¬ lic Speaking, Music, and the Class Assemblies. 48 SNAP SHOTS Here is Emily Mesquite enjoying a cone while Eleanor Costa looks on, but Marie Brown wouldn’t direct her attention toward the camera. The next small snap contains two Senior boys and a Scrub — Bill Santana, Frank Barret and Bobby Lewis. Below this picture we have five charming girls. What’s the matter Jean? You seem to be lost in our big school. Yvonne Sinclair, finds the paper so interesting that she didn’t have time to cross her feet back to normal position. Cute isn’t it? In the next picture Frances Hart’s mood is doubtful, but she seems very comfortable. “Speed” Young and Matt Tomimatsu lend a smile to the cameraman. Danny Mannix and Richard Garcia do likewise. Miss Van Winkle’s Spanish class was the scene for this snap of Laura Lee Zwissig, apparently enjoying Spanish very much. SNAP SHOTS Two popular Sophomore boys, Joseph Lewis and Reuben Ramos, were caught by the cameraman just as they were viewing the school from the entrance of the Music room. It must have been the Sophomore’s candy sale for in the next two pictures we see Mary Inouye, Anita Cabaran and Hiroshi Sugimoto at work. Alvina Homen makes a striking picture enjoys ing her lunch. Here is another Sophomore doing her part—Dorothy Frank ' lin, selling candies and ice cream bars at a football game. The roving camera here caught four boys. The two on the left eating cones are “Flash Furtado” and Hayden Freitas; the other two are John Amaral and Norman Silva. Two faculty members, Mr. Morse and Mr. Rees, seem to be conversing over something important during lunch hour. In the last picture two football players Gene Martinez, and Fred Paredes pose. Nice Isn’t it? SNAPSHOTS This is what the cameraman calls cooperation from three smiling lassies, Grayce Lyons, Lucille Silva, and Helen Guardanapo. Evidently one of the art classes, for Mrs. Morse seems quite busy helping her students mould clay. Beverly Adams was too busy t o look around at the camera at this moment. She and her friend are looking for something awfully important. What is Stanley Bernardo doing? Could he be trying to see how tall he is? Next we have a hit from the Vodvil—cute little birdies, Sally Logan, Alice Lum, and Barbara Bettencourt. That new Senior, Richard Webster from Alaska, poses a minute for us, just as Dorothy Parks another new student does likewise in the next snap. Here Joe Regli, an enthusiastic ball player took time out to satisfy the cameraman. B. BRAGG E. BETTENCOURT H. BORGHI M. BOYCE D. FURTADO H. FREITAS R. HENRY M. LEAL R. LAUDENSLAGER G. MARTINEZ M.

Aided by the invaluable assistance of coaches Taylor and Voorhees, plus the insurmountable aggressive spirit of the team. Washing ' ton tied with Santa Clara for second place in the league. Considered an inexperienced team, Washington started the season with ' out great hope. Although the opening game was lost to Mt. View, the re ' mainder of the games were victories. The Huskers upset the highly favored Gilroy eleven and held Santa Clara to a 7 ' 7 tie. One of next year’s problems will be to replace the backfield combination of Mervin Boyce and Walt George. Mervin Marshall’s dependable block ' ing along with Joe Schelbert’s never failing tackles will be missed. Also missing will be D. Furtado, R. Henry, R. Laudenslager, J. Pool, R. Vieux, M. Garcia, and J. Stanhope who regretfully concluded their football career for Washington this year. Hope for next year’s team will depend on the returning veterans F. Bon ghi, E. Bettencourt, B. Bragg, R. Farrington, H. Freitas, A. George, L. Laudenslager, M. Leal, G. Martinez, F. Parades, B. Pine, G. Smith, and B. Rand. CLASS C BASKETBALL Standing: M. Tomimatsu, R. Ramos, A.

C and D BASKETBALL The D ' s had another very successful season, ending in a three way tie for first place with Santa Clara and Mountain View. The high score man of the season was Ernie Machado followed closely by Nakamura, Rose, Daniels and Lebon. Other boys who saw action were Jacinto, Jardin, Lemos, Jones, Tajima, and Champion. The C’s were not quite so successful as their smaller brothers, but ended up in third place. The outstanding players for the C ' s were Nitta, Winters and Bra 2 ;il, helped by Cardo2,a and Holeman. Other boys of the C team who saw action were Alameda, Tomimatsu, Ramos, Fasolis and Santos. A and B BASKETBALL The Washington High Varsity had its most successful season since join ' ing the S. C. V. A. L., ending in a co ' championship with San Jose Tech, both having lost one game. The season was highlighted by the two games with Santa Clara and S. J. T., both won by Washington. This year’s team was not made up of great individual players, but a group of boys who played together and had the will to win, and last but not lease, the guidance of Coach Taylor. Seniors who have played their last game for Washington are Richard Marriot, Lionel Rocha, Danny Mannix, Travis Dungan, and Robert Hunt. The Washington B’s weren’t quite so lucky as their larger brothers but won 4 out of 8 league games. The B’s, led by Coach Voorhees, started out with a bang but went into a midseason slump. At the end of the season they had regained their skill and were playing fine ball. CLASS A BASKETBALL Standing: H. Freitas, T. Dungan, F. Paredes, R. Witherly, H. Silva, F. Rogers, W. Kimberling.

FIRST TEAM BASEBALL This year’s Varsity Baseball team is one of the peppiest and best co ' ordinated teams Washington has ever had. It has a very high fielding aver ' age with Nunes and Enos proving one of the best keystone combinations in the league. The hitting ability was very equal, with Walter George, G. Smith, R. Lebon and M. Nunes leading. On the mound we had Roy Duarte and Charlie Marin with Eddie Bettencourt doing a stellar job behind the plate. First base was the pri e of one of the hardest fought battles for a posi ' tion by George Smith and Jack Silva. On third base Rufus Lebon did a spec¬ tacular job with some great stops. In the outfield we were well taken care of with Bud Marshall, W. George, J. Rodriques and M. Leal doing a grand job. Losing only three seniors, W. George, L. Rocha and Bud Marshall, v e hope to make a good league standing next year.

There SECOND TEAM BASEBALL For the first time in several years the B team was limited to Freshnien and Sophomores. Most of these boys were playing their first games in high school. Three outstanding Freshmen who have the ability to really play good ball in the next three years are M. Rose J. Daniels at second and J. Jacinto at short stop. L. Marin and F. Galvan did a good job on the mound with P. Silva and S. Alameda catching. The hitting was evenly divided throughout the team with M. Rose, and M. Olivera leading. The outfield was well taken care of by such heavy hitters as J. Rogers, E. Kuegeman, L. Laudenslager and R. Ramos. On first, F. Paredes and Bill La 2 , 2 ;erini fought it out, with Paredes finally winning the position. M. Olivera took care of third with ease. These boys were not very lucky this year, winning one game out of four, but in a few years you will see these same names winning games for the W. U. FI. S. Varsity.

Veterans from last year’s B’s have formed the nucleus of this year’s team. Outstanding this year are Don Furtado and Richard Marriott who are both top track stars of the league. The team will lose the following Seniors by graduation: Jack Pool, 100 and 220 yard dashes; Mervin Boyce, 880 yard run and discus; Don Furtado, polewault; Richard Marriott, hop ' skin and ' jump and broad jump; and Dan Mannix, hurles. The B team has also concluded another successful track season. A senior missing next year in the 130 class will be Harry Uhijima, polewault. This year the S. C. V. A. L. trials and finals were held at Campbell on May 21 and 29. 60 C and D TRACK The return of many veterans aided the lightweight track team consider¬ ably this year. Meeting strong competition, the G team finished an average season. Returning next year, we have Tom Nitta for the discus and pole-vault; Reuben Ramos and Walter Fasolis, ace timber toppers; Don Lemos in the pole-vault and the hop-skip-and-jump; and Elliott Jardin and George Hole- man running the 50 and 100 yard dashes. Although handicapped by the lack of trackmen at the beginning of tne season, the D team, nevertheless, came through with flying colors. Outstand¬ ing in the D team this year were Jim Machida and Yukio Isoda, veterans of the past season. CLASS D TRACK I Nakamura, T. Champion, J. Turner, Y. Ishida, J. Machida.

This is the fourth year for Washington with the Santa Clara Valley Athletic League. Under the coaching of Mr. Taylor, Jim Stanhope was in the first singles position, with John Williamson and Jack Dutra playing second and third singles respectively. The first doubles team was composed of Joshua Fong, Mervin Boyce and Eugene Corriea. Second doubles con ' sisted of Richard and David Webster. Seniors playing their last year for the Alma Mater are Jim Stanhope, Richard Marriott, Jack Dutra, Mervin Boyce and Richard and David Webster.

GIRLS’ SPORTS Girls’ sports were of an unusual variety this year. In addition to the four major sports, basketball, speedball, baseball, and volleyball formerly taken up, many new enjoyable selections have been made. Topping the “new list” was hockey, which was taken up with a great deal of zeal and interest. Hockey technique was shown to the girls during the season by Miss Apple ' by, one of the foremost authorities on the game. Some of the more interest¬ ed students went to California and Stanford Universities with Miss Shum- way and Miss Griffen to watch the Northern California Field Hockey As¬ sociation. As in other sports, inter class hockey games were played, with seventh period emerging victorious. Most of the girls turned out enthusiastically for speedball which this year replaces soccer. Playing a fine, hard fought game the seventh period girls showed fine playing and took the championship from the second period. Basketball took the center next and as usual, interest in this sport reached a high peak. Because of the large turn-out not only one but two teams from each period were formed. Since the rainy season lasted too long ,interclass tournaments were not played until the middle of March, and final play-olfs were played after the Easter vacation. The girls enjoyed basketball even more this year because their interest led to the learning of many fundamen¬ tals of the game which made it more enjoyable. GIRLS’ SPORTS While the major sports were being played, there were many girls who wished to take part in individual games, such as ping pong, tennis and bad ' minton. A ladder was provided for each of the games to select the top ranking players. At the end of the year, many of the girls had mastered these sports. Croquet was also introduced this year. On several occasions, when the gym was not available for all girls to take part in sports at one time, the classes were converted into dancing and exer ' cising classes, in which the girls enjoyed learning new dance steps and vari ' ous types of formal exercises. Besides the regular P. E. gym classes’ dancing groups, an elective social dancing class was formed. Enthusiastic Freshmen boys and girls who wished to learn were all invited to attend. Not only was this class for beginners but also for more advanced dancing students. During the entire year the girls have enjoyed their numerous sports as well as learned a great deal about them through the able instruction of IViiss Grilfen and Miss Shumway. Standing: E.

These two have helped the squad all through the season as “water boys.” The group of boys in the next snap seem very happy. Notice a smile or grin on each one’s face. Our three yell leaders, Tony Lopez,, Alberta Nunes, and Evelyn Betten court pause here for a breath after leading the school in some yells. Joe Schelbert, squinting at the sun, seems to be expecting a pass from a team¬ mate or else looking in the stands for someone—could be. The squad watch¬ es as their team plays. Next we have what might be called the “mightiest” section of the cheering section. But look at Joy Brown and Mary Cattaneo. The play didn’t seem to be to their interest at that moment. SNAP SHOTS SNAPSHOTS In the first picture we see Loretta Caeton and Bud Amaral playing a little game by themselves, while Rita Gonsalves and Loretta Lewis watch the camera. Next we have a group of six popular boys just roaring to go. Who knows where? Miss Shumway seems to be making an absentee slip out while Bernice Rose looks on. Witherly and Mohn pose a minute for the camera, while Ebba Rae Benbow, A1 George and Melvin Leal do likewise. Observe closely and it will seem to you that Don Lemos is demonstrating a new step to Betty Mederios. Mervin Boyce and Leona Holden pause here a moment during lunch hour. The cameraman did a fine job in getting five handsome Junior boys all together. Left to right are Arnold Silva, Ed Bettencourt, Roy Duarte, Tony Alonzo, and Ed Enos.
