So it is with our Radio Log of the Manzanita. This year has goneeout over the air waves, and all you have left is memories. We have tried to pre- pare this Radio Log for you so that you can turn on the radio of the Manzanita and have a summary of I 936 before you. If all our selections donlt please you, just turn the dial until you get What you want. May we present the 1936 Manianita. OwO-A MANZANITA WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL In appreciation of the part she has played in 1 making the Manzanita What it is today, we the Staff of the 19 36 edition sincerely dedi- cate this year book to Miss A. Mae Lord. W MANZANITA 0WD.- WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL MANZANITA GIN! WHRELEW WAVES T. S. MACQUIDDY V Fettered feet bind me to the earth, But, oh, my spiritIs free; And ,Cross the chasmed miles and years From me and you I flee. I climb the highest peaks of snow And roam the floor of seas; On clouds I sail the cool deep skies And moor at stars With ease; Astride I ride the cometIs back Around the burning sun, And run beside the meteors Until the race IIve won. I join the chorus of the spheres With dance and lusty song; And twinkling stations flash the deeds I,ve wrought my path along. Then resting on the silent moon Dear friendships call again, And down the timeless silver light I coast to me and men. But prisoned here in walls of self In vain I seek a way To radio to you I love The words my heart would say. I41 WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL FAQ U LTV LOIS BARTON .............................

Our program comes to an end on June I9. Reviewing the broadcasts of the past four years we find most of our memories to be happy ones. Outstanding in our activities we have formed a credible class organi- zation. In all Clubs, sports and other activities we have always been well i representedeand now our senior year. At the hrst assembly the seniors blossomed out in their red and white Senior Sweaters. My! Were we proud! We were really surprised to find no one wearing dark glasses the next day. The senior picincea day of leisureebasking in the sun at Bolado Park. Those peeling backs might have looked O. K. on the beach-but oh, what they did to a formal. The Junior-Senior Prom came next. A lot of hard work but it was worth it. After every student had snapped back to normal, we hnd final eX- aminations booming up with a great many seniors not a little worried over the possibilities of his or her graduation. And thentthe reward of four yearsl workeGRADUATIONeand the Senior Ball. It is hard to say whether graduation marks the beginning or the end of our careers-but with the bright hope of youthil we must disregard all dour remarks that our happiest days are behind us, and look forward to even better times and greater accomplishment. Four long years you,ve sheltered us,, now we intend to find further shelter in some form of fame, service, or endeavor.

UBJ WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL JMNHGDRSS FTER spending three full years in the Watsonville Union High School, the Juniors are ready to take the place of the departing Seniors. ,. The oflicers of the Juniors, are President, Bill Grul; Secretary, Carolyn I Ellis; Treasurer, Charles Black; Vice President, Bill Newby; Yell Leader, Lawrence Fergoda; Girlsl Athletic Manager, Amelia Amezich and Boys, Athletic Manager, Howard Ditlevsen. The Junior boys have nearly outdone all other Classes in sports. Junior boys captain three teams: Football, Bill Grul; Basketball, Bill Tembey; Track, Sam Vucinich. Bob Ditlevsen, Howard Ditlevsen, Bob Rhoads, Bill Newby, Lloyd Miller and Slip Marinovich played outstandingly this year and will make up the background of the teams next year. We canlt forget the Junior girls who fought so hard for the champion- ship. Juniors who continually made All Star teams were Amelia Amezich, Var Lemon, Sue Mida, Barbara Birbeck and others. There were many who shone in interclass games. Both boys and girls have taken active parts in all school activities and have done their part scholastically too. We feel that the present Junior class will make a very able class of Seniors. V JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS President -. ,,,,, .A ........

The boys probably exceeded in quantity but the girls were not far behind in quality. Stars of the class among the boys were Jack Nelson, playing football; Gordon McGowan, football; Owen Keena, track; Homer Silver, tennis; Gerald Hansen, tennis star; Bill Mine, midget track; David Gibbs, track; Marvin Tierney, Miguel Tavarez, Bert Depew, discus throwers; and Frank Osmer, lightweight football as well as captain of the Wildcat lightweight basketball team. The Sophomore girls lead the Junior and Senior girls a merry tussle in the fields of speedball and hockey. The outstanding sportsmen in this Class were Ida Raye Graham, Alma Stephenson, Grace Bradley, Margaret Herbert, Edith Worthington, Norma Goldman, captain of the Sophomore V V7 IX -r S C3 P4 TI 1 L L E LJ P4 I C3 r4 F4 I 65 PI S C: Fl CD CD L l speedball team, with Verna Stroh following close behind. The language Clubs found many capable people in this Class to fill their offices. Mary Sheehy, Fred Koepke, and Robert Rettig represented their Class in the Latin Club. The French Club,s very ambitious secretary, Edith Worthington, be- longs to the class of T3 8. Sophomores were not lacking in the Spanish Club. Adelaide Taylor was the queen at the Spanish Fiesta this year. Jeanette Bonita and Jessie Huston also represented them in the A Lo Alto. . From the record that we have made in the first half of our high school careers we feel confident that the last half will be one of continued glory to ourselves and the school.

S. we are apt to forget that sinking feeling we had less than a year ago when we first entered the school. Now we have become a part of this organization and are ready to initiate the Class 40 when they arrive in August. Many eager Freshmen boys enrolled in the non-ceasing call for more football and basketball players; and track team members. Some of the boys regardless of size and youth went out for all the sports. Their lighting at- titude will be shown even more in the next few years When they constitute the greater part of our school teams. i The Freshmen girls, not to be outshown by the boys, made a big show- ing for their part in girls, athletics. They are energetic, active, prospective members of the G. A. A. spending many hours after school to gain required points for entrance into this all purpose organization. Spurts of their ambition have been displayed in gaining recognition in the all star teams and big turnouts for all activities giving the upper Classmen a challenge in every sport. Our class can look to these girls in the future as outstanding athletes and typical American girls. t Our Freshmen Class deserves high honors, not only for their athletic ability, but also for having a greater number eligible for the Scholarship Society than any other class this year. We are also well represented in other Clubs in the school.

MARY LEE I 9 3 6 l MANZANITA OWOH d WATSO-NVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL TWQ YEAR QERTHFHCATE QQMRSESS HE Watsonville Union High School offers a two year course to stu- dents looking for an intensive study along commercial lines, home management, or trade preparation. Girls or boys interested in preparing for secretarial work take a special training course in stenography, which includes typewriting and shorthand. The student gains a knowledge of general oche routine, the ability to write a good business letter, handle the mail, and the different duties required of an OHiCC worker. The accounting course includes a great deal of book- keeping. In addition to these specialized skills, courses are required of a more general nature Which are absolutely essential to a successful man or woman. The home management course is for girls looking forward to the days When they Will be heads of their homes. When they finish their course, they are skilled cooks, able to plan and serve a well balanced meal; ac- complished dressmakers, able to design, make and care for their own ward- robes, as well as other members of the family. They receive practical training in running a home, furnishing it economically, efficiently, and attractively. What is more, they know how to keep it clean. They also learn about child care, family life, and etiquette. The trade preparation course touches on many skilled trades. Along with these trades, the fundamental subjects are taught too, so that a student leaves school With a definite knowledge which Will in later years enable him to fit into a business or home organization; and still he has had some academic work too.

SSCHQLARSSHIIP SSCJDCIIIETV UNDER the leadership of able ochers and Mrs. Tyler, their faculty advisor, the society flourished during the school year 1935-36. The presiding officers for the first semester were Pearl Huston, president; Barney Procuriza, Vice president; Maxine McElroy, secretary and Clyde Greenhill, treasurer. In the second semester Lora Freeman was elected president, Florence Hurst, vice president; Aileen Dyche, secretary and Barbara Birbeck, treas- urer. With 64 members, this society is larger than ever before and now has i261 WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL become the largest organization, outside of the student body and band, in the school. Most of this group Visited Stanford last fall in the Scholarshipk annual visit to some prominent college. There they were shown around by student guides and Visited classes. As it was the day before the Big Game, the stu- dents saw Stanford,s rival, the California team practicing in the big sta- dium. The group ate lunch at the Stanford Union, the school cafeteria. When they returned to Watsonville, they all felt as though college must be a wonderful institution. With the help of the Oral English Class, the society put on a very suc- cessful evening of entertainment. Despite a rainy evening, the student body forecast the good time that awaited them, and a large crowd turned out to see the three plays and to enjoy dancing later. Another feather in the cap of Mrs. Tyler,s charges was the fact that Bud Lettunich was elected President of the Central Region Scholarship Confederation and Pearl Huston was elected the Director of Publicity. Because of the ambitious workers in this organization, Watsonville was chosen to be host to the annual Central Regional Convention held April 25. Bud Lettunich was appointed general chairman and in turn ap- pointed some of the upper classmen to help him. Those he appointed were: Pearl Huston, publicity and general assistant; Lora Freeman, appIe-polish- ing committee tthey polished apples for guests which were donated by the Chamber of Commercey; Bob Worthington, overnight accomodations; Clyde Greenhill, transportation; Marian Dong, table decorations; Frances Faulds, signs and Florence Hurst, registration. Students from the school at large cooperated by entertaining many out-of-town guests over Friday night. The Visiting students were the guests of the student body at the student dance held in the Veterans Memorial Hall on Friday night. By Saturday morning, 400 delegates had registered and had been presented with a special copy of the Black and Gold which the Watsonvile Register printed for the news writing classes of Miss Fleming and Mr. Hamilton. Another favor given to the delegates was the work of Miss Martin,s commercial students. They mimeographed directions on the back of colorful cartograph maps of the Monterey Peninsula, furnished by the Chamber of Commerce. At the morning session Professor Leon Rich- ardson, head of the extension department at California and professor of Latin, addressed the students on some of the elements that enable a person to enjoy living: study your own possibilities; make use of idle time by re- flection; improve the skills that you have already acquired, such as reading. Miss Farrell, of our own faculty, pleased the delegates with an amusing and effective talk on Scholarship for Service? One of the ways the local society serves the school is by tutoring the I pupils that have been absent or that need special help in their studies. 9 At the first of every term the members help the freshmen and new stu- 3 dents become acquainted with the new school. Every year they raise $200 toward a college loan fund which they secured from the faculty, student 6 body and their own projects. v9; :4 I271 MANZANITA TOP PICTUREeFirSf Row: Raymond Bradshaw, Carl Gray, Charles Shikuma, Vernon Baker, George Mat- sumoto, Wallace Hutton, Lloyd Lettis, William Rasmussen, Edward Chinn, George Clute, Harold Bradley.

THE BAND HE cameras were stopped at the Fox Theatre and when the curtain went up, who was on the stage? Yes, you guessed it. It was the High SchooPs Championship Band. They played a few numbers and were pre- sented with bright medals. This event will be remembered in Watsonville for many years. During the summer adorned in their black and gold uniforms, the band marched in the Fourth of July parade, after which they were given tickets to the barbecue. The first event of this year was the kangaroo court at which the new members of the band were in--- WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL All the boys were sent through the mill, :1 process that warmed them up to a hard years work and made them eat off the mantle shelf for several days afterwards. The girls were made to recite poems, sing songs or do something funny. After these festivities were over the band settled down to work, find- ing that they had to work desperately for they were handicapped by the loss of 3 2 members of the Championship band of T3 5 who had graduated and the loss of 5 solo chair players who had moved away. However, every member grimly and determinedly worked with all sails, set for another Champion- ship for T3 6. Great enthusiasm was stirred up by the band at assemblies, football and basketball games. The trip to the Salinas football game was rather unusual. The teams, bus of band students was forced to stand alon g side the road until a bus came back from Salinas to pick them up. tOur smallest member will remem- ber this day particularly well. Instead of spending the afternoon with the band, he was always to be found at the candy counter. The following Mon- day, he was presented with a medal which consisted of penny candies, horse blanket pin, clothes pin, tissue paper and an old sockJ l They then played for the Armistice Day Parade and football game, l and a few weeks later for the Childrenls Parade. Piling into buses one evening around 4: 30 the band members had their dinner at the Saint George Hotel in Santa Cruz. Afterwards they piled back into the buses and played a concert at Cocoanut Grove for the State Grange Convention. May was the bands most important month. The first trip was to Salinas for the band festival. Salinas, Pacific Grove, Monterey, Gilroy, Gon- zales, and Watsonville were all represented. The bands all played in unison. The spring concert was presented May 5 to raise money for the trip to San Francisco. The program consisted of the contest number, Egmont Overture by Ludwig Beethoven; Slavonic Rhapsody by Freidman; Con- certino by Weber; and also many other marches. May 9 was the most outstanding day of the year for the band, being the date of the contest in San Francisco, Egmont Overture, Slavonic Rhapsody No. 2, the number Chosen by the band, and the International Band Masters Association March was the march that was chosen to be played. The year of hard work was ended by the annual picnic at Sea Cliff. New members were again initiated by being ducked, but there were also many cases of sunburn which were remembered for days afterward.

UOJ WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL CHGRAIL CLMISS YEAR of exceptional musical activity was completed when the choral classes sang at the Baccalaureate services for the graduating class. During the fall semester, the choral classes sang for the Business and Professional Womenk Club, the Womanis Club, the Scholarship Benefit Plays, the Santa Cruz uGood Willh Assembly, and with the Oral English classes, presented the annual Christmas Pageant at which they sang very new and beautiful arrangements of Mexican, Indian, and Russian Christ- mas Carols. i ; Spring brought forth another semester of singing and entertainment i as the choral classes continued their serenading at the Rotary Club, the Ki- wanis Club, the Scholarship Convention luncheon, music week and for the American Legionis Services on Memorial Day. ' On May 2 I , the girls were Hostesses at a uMusical Teai, honoring their a mothers. This was the first program of its kind to be presented by a high T school group, and proved to be very successful. GRQHESTRA YEAR of success and achievement with the ingredients, hard work and fun thoroughly mixed, has been the orchestrais score at the com- pletion of one of its most successful years under the baton of Merti, Car- lyon. The orchestra is one of the important organizations in the Watsonville Union High School. Many of the schoolTs social events are dependent upor the talent displayed by this group. One of the important affairs at which the orchestra participated was the Fashion Show, sponsored by students of the Home Economics classes. Several numbers performed by the orchestra were well received. The next event was the Oral English Plays at which the orchestra setting was carried out in an oriental motiff. At the time of the annual Spring Concert, which was held May 5, the orchestra shared the program with the band. Last, but not least, was graduation on June 19, ending another suca cessful year, after which all instruments were put away to wake up again at the beginning of the fall semester with a call to arms, from Mert.

They have been very suc- cessful in all of their projects. Their agricultural projects have attained greater scope and size than those owned by former Aggies during the de- pression years. Poultry project work Which had been practically at a standstill for the last six years has again come to the front, for more than a fourth of the Aggies this year own and operate projects in egg production, poultry meat production, and in chick brooding. The students purchased and owned nothing but blood tested stock, some of this stock purebred. Losses in this poultry project work have been surprisingly small. Under the direction of UN WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL Mr. Hollenberg a poultry house was erected in the Hall district. This poultry house was for the benefit of the Future Farmers, and they gained much valuable knowledge from it. The acreage of crop projects has increased to nearly hfty per cent above that of the last few years. They have made many experiments with different kinds of crops and soils. Better varieties and crops more suitable to various types of soils and land locations are in evidence of these experi- ments. Taken all in all the year has been one of great interest in project, the foundation of all the agricultural instructions given the boys of this course. Besides the agricultural project work carried on by each individual Aggie a considerable amount of community service project work has been done on the farms of the valley for their farmer owners. Such work was done in the nature of outsideh class instruction in agriculture and agricultural mechanics. It involved jobs in orchard layout, orchard planting, Vineyard and orchard grafting, Vineyard and orchard pruning, butterfat testing, poultry blood testing, and numerous other problems by agriculture Classes. Agricultural mechanics Classes built a large 1000 bird poultry egg pro- duction unit that involved much work in concrete and carpentry. Their time has not only been taken up in project work, but they have had pleasure excursions besides. All of the boys from the agricultural classes went on a picnic. This picnic was held on May 15 at Bolado Park in Hollister, where swimming and games were enjoyed as well as a big feed? Besides this there have been other social events. Project work was featured in talks and pictures at the Annual Father and Son Banquet held on May I4. It was largely attended by enthusiastic boys and their dads. This has really been a year of great accomplishment for these boys. F. A. A. OFFICERS President JACK MCGOWAN Vice President JOHN PINI I Secretary ................................

As the echoes and rafters settle into place, the Yell Leader announces the coming football, basketball, baseball games and track meets; coaches, captains, and outside speakers give pep talks; and then ten months later the assembly is adjourned by singing that grand school song, Black and Gold? Sixteen members of the Student Body, with advice and encourage- ment from Miss Lang and the two coaches, have made humor and school spirit outstanding in the following activities: WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL l l l l Decorating of Memorial Hall 'for dances and assemblies. Rally assemblies. Big game bonfire. Selling of candy at basketball and football games. Charge of student dances. Skit Tramp Barbers? Yell contest, and the providing of good entertainment and interest- in g speakers for all Rally Assemblies. STUDENT ICCDARD HE student board, to those who do not know what it is, can be dehned as another student body made up of the most conscientious members of the different classes in the school. The function of the board is the con- sideration of student body questions which need more discussion and reasoning than can be given them at a regular student body meeting. The two major subjects with which the board dealt this year were; the financial status of the student body; and the other, still more important, the relationship between the student body of our school and that of Santa Cruz High School. The first was handled efliciently and a surplus of $ 500 was made a permanent emergency fund to be used if urgently needed in the future. The second; was settled peacefully with the cooperation of a similiar board from the Santa Cruz High School and a sort of Versailles, treaty was agreed upon. Both decisions were considered wise by the student body and will become tradition in W. U. H. S. QVM QCDDMMIITTEE HE annual Gym Dance was held at the Veterans Memorial Hall, April 2 5. Good music, attractive decorations and an enthusiastic crowd made the dance a success. It was well attended by many students as well as inter- ested townsfolk. The committee was ably headed this year by Bill Grul. v , ,, OWO-i I351 MANZANITA SERVICE CLUB TOP PICTUREeFth Row: Lillian Thomas, Frances Faulds, Carolyn Ellis, Betty chdcs, Frances Benich, Margaret Hunsuckcr, Evelyn Novak.

WEINIES ON WEDNESDAY BOTTOM PICTURE: Ray Kirby, Jean Koepke, Leon Williams, Annette Sager, Lucille Curtis. CQIRAL ENQLHSH RAMATIC activities started during the first semester when Miss Lord,s Seventh Period class presented three plays at the Scholarship benefit party. The flrst, a comedy, Weinies on Wednesday? was enacted by Annette Sager, Leon Williams, Lucille Curtis, Jean Koepke and Ray Kirby. In An Excellent Thing in Woman? Aimee Lou Emmett, as secretary to Drs. Bill Grul and Frank Crossetti, saved the life of a poor fellow Who wanted to commit suicide-euntil he heard Aimee Louhs golden voice on the ,phone. An original comedy by Bud Lettunich closed the shOWethMasquer- ade? Helen Ruth Eckel, the maid, couldntt resist trying on the costume that Nancy Cochran had bought for her house guest, Jean Dorey, to wear to the masked ball. Complications arose when Bud Lettunich arrived and mistook the maid for his blind date. With Ann Rozich as the mother, Lael Putman, the daughter, Peter Watters, the son, and A gnes Lasher, the prima donna, Weinies on Wednesdayh was repeated at the good-will assembly in Santa Cruz, and for local service clubs. Our traditional Christmas pageant closed the activities of the first DH semester. The Oral English people did the Nativity scene in pantomime while the glee and the language classes sang carols and hymns. In the spring set of plays, the most elaborate one was the romantic fantasy, uThe Rose of Alhambraf, a costume play in which Helen Wood- all, as the rose of the Alhambra, was granted her wish to be reunited with her lover, Bob Hudson, by the spirit of a moorish princess, Marian Dong. Clem Molina delighted the audience as the king who thought himself dead and bewailed the fact that he remained unburied. Nancy Cochran was his queen, Mary Bauer the merry jester whose dance only infuriated him, Harold Vorheis, his sardonic courtier de Alarcon, and Roy Gordon, his chief attendant. Isabelle Gutierrez was Aunt Fredezonda, who took all the credit for the happy ending. The bearers of the kings bier were Bob Mooney, Harold. Hitchings, Hal Bidelman, and Leon Williams. Credit should go to the stage crew: William Cox, Herbert Jacobson, Frank Lettis, Bob Worthingtoh, Homer Silver and to Mrs. Worthington for long hours of art work and supervision for the fountain and colonade and to Mr. Hol- lenberg and Cliff! Dethlefsen for the construction of the sets. For sustained character portrayal in the difficult roles of Finders Keepers? the acting of Betty Swearingen and Frank Birbeck was out- 1 standing. In theishorter role of Mrs. Hampton, who lost the $400, Beth 1 Sanders maintained the high tension which Betty and Frank had created over the conflict of wills and ideals when Mrs. Aldrid was determined to l WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL keep the money she had found. Twelve dclock! The Witching hour! Lights out! A scream! A falling body! A strangely assorted group of guests appeared for the evening at the Van Dyke mansionenot all of them expecting their host, Leon Williams, to be murdered. Among them were the phrenologist, Helen Eckel; the en- fant terrible? Janet Stafford; the son, Hal Bidelman; the butler, Robert Mooney; and Mrs. Van Dyke, Maxine Bliss. Harold Hitchings proved the sensation of the play in his oilicial capacity as the chief of the police, but not before he had killed each remaining member of the party. Name: uWilhen the Clock Strikes? Excuse: None needed. i Miss Gordorfs newly organized Dramatics class made their initial appearance when they presented two plays for the Scholarship convention in April. The first was, The Dear Departed? a comedy dealing with a dead man Who didn,t die. John Copriviza was the living dead man, sur- rounded by grasping relatives, who were Louise Pokovich, Jean Jackson, Mike Matulich, Madeline Mello, and Leon Williams. The other play presented was A Reign of Terror? an episode from the French Revolution, in which the power maddened citizeness, Lora Freeman, mentally tortured three aristocrats who died, finally, happy that their troubles would at last be over. A farce, The Pot Boilers? was presented at the Girls Assembly in May, and a comedy with Merle Twyman, Marian Hushbeck, Pauline Bor- ders, Pearl Huston, and Jean Dorey in a girls school mix up finished the season at the Junior-Senior Prom.

Much credit is due to Coach Geiser Who has developed the team in the last three years into a smooth and powerful machine using his material to the best advantage. Gonzales fell as the first Victory to the Wildcats gridders taking a 32-6 walloping here in the first practice game. The only defeat of the season was a 7-0 affair in which Sequoia defeated the Cats after a spirited battle. In the last practice game, the Cats, after fighting a light stubborn Los Banos team emerged With a 2 5 - I 2 Victory. Coach Geiseris Wildcats proved themselves to be strong contenders for the title in their first league game, When they trounced Monterey I9e0. Clem Molina scored all three touchdowns. Held scoreless for the first half by the fighting and determined Hollister squad, the Cats unleashed their r421 attack and carried the ball over the last stripe three times to win again by 19-0 score. This time Bill Newby scored all three touchdowns. uBeat Salinasi, was the battle cry during the week of October 26, and a band of untamed Wildcats invaded Salinas. With the game but a few minutes old, Captain Bill Grul picked up a fumble and scampered 60 yards to the first score. But this wasnit enough for the ,Cats who scored three 5 more touchdowns, winning by a 25-0 count. The Cowboys fought des- l perately throughout the game, but lost the championship crown, which they had held for 'four consecutive years. Before an estimated crowd of more than 5000 enthusiastic fans on Armistice Day the lCats defeated their traditional rival, Santa Cruz, by a I 3-7 score in the Big Gamel, which ended the most successful season in a grand finale. l Those who received all-C. C. A. L. mention were: ends, Bob Ditlevsen and Sam Vucinich; tackle, llBeefo,l Dani; guards, Capt. Bill Grul and Slipl, Marinovich; center, Bob Hudson; backs, James Izumizaki, Clem Molina and Bill Newby. i LHQHTWEHQHT FGQDTIAILL l NDEFEATED, untied, and unscored upon, the good ship llWild- 3 kitten,i came to a graceful three-point landing when it turned back a determined Santa Cruz eleven in a dog-fight that ended in a 25-0 score, and with the game won the coveted C. C. A. L. lightweight title. Clear sailing all the way? was Coach Lloyd Budl, Wintefs remark. The com- plete squad got a work-out in the Cardinal contest. It was the iirst light- weight football title the school had ever won. Perfect team-play, plus a courageous and nghting spirit that would not accept defeat, accounted for the Wildkittensh unprecedented success. On offense the Kittensll moved with the precision of a team that knew where it was going, and on defense the line held with the strength of a steel girder. Steady and inspiring in his play and spirit, Captain Roy Goodwin stood out as the finest blocking halfback in the league. Henry Little Napoleonll Antognani, proved himself a genius of field strategy, and di- rected the team on many a goalward march. Helping out the running attack, York Asami pitched the pigskin about with deadly effect, Tom Mine usually being on the receiving end of his tosses. Frankie Osmer, an overstuffed model of a lightweight halfback, scored the most points, and was almost impossible to stop when a short gain was needed. Most of his scoring plunges were from within the ten-yard stripe. In the forward wall, Bill Mine, Toyo Hisatomi, Gordon McGowan, Owen Keena, Harvey Harris, Jack Nelson, Tony Scalisi and Tom Mine effectually smothered the oppositions attempts at offense, and ripped Wide 1 holes for the Apple City backfield, which ran wild in almost every game. 9 The Register-Pajaronian all-C. C. A. L. eleven named the entire Wat- sonville backneld on its first team, while Tom and Bill Mine, Toyo Hisa- 3 tomi, Tony Scalisi and Gordon McGowan won line berths. Owen Keena 6 and Jack Nelson were placed on the all-C. C. A. L. second team.

HEAVYIWEHQHT BIASSKETALIL MERGING victorious over the highly touted Santa Cruz hoopsters by 18-17 score in the play-off game, after both teams had hnished the season With 8 victories and 2 defeats, the Wildcats under Coach Emmett Geiserls tutoring won their fourth C. C. A. L. title in six yearSethe flrst being in 1931, when the Wildcats won not only the C. C. A. L. title but also the P. A. L. and N. C. I. F. honors; then repeating for the C. C. A. L. title in 193 2 and again in 1934. Against Salinas, the Cats started the season with a bang, decisively trouncing the Cowboys 38-16. Monterey, Gilroy and Pacific Grove all fell by huge scores. The opponents were held to 52 points, a total equalled H41 WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL by Lloyd Frese who scored 52 points in the four games he played. With Santa Cruz left to play on the schedule for the first half, the Cardinals postponed the game because of a flu epidemic in the surf city. This pre- vented Frese from playing in the last game because he was a nine-semester student after January 3 I. In the second round, the ,Cats played an up-and-down grade of basketball, losing to Salinas and Santa Cruz. Still determined to win the title, the heavyweights once again hit their stride and knocked Santa Cruz out of the running in the last two games by 29-20 and I 8-17 scores to win the second major title of the school year. Those who received mention on the C. C. A. L. teams were: forwards, Lloyd Frese, Bob Ditlevsen and Bill Newby; center, Bob Hudson; guards, Sam Vucinich, Capt. Bill Temby and Joe Heatwole. ILIIQIHTWIEIIQIHT HA$IKIETAILL FTER a flawless flight during the grid season, the good ship Wild- kittenll went into a combination nose-dive and tail-spin to crack up before well under way in quest of the C. C. A. L. lightweight basketball title. During its wild and whoozy flight the Kitten? did manage to polish off every team in the league at least once with the exception of Pacihc Grove. The lone Victory of the lightweights over the Santa Cruz limiteds edged the Cardinal live out of the league championship. That sinister Villain and Waterloo of all quintets, uOld Man Hard Luck? was in constant attendance at the Wildkitten games. Sometimes he appeared in the form of an elusive hoop which would not cooperate with the local sharpshooters. Though injuries hurt the team at times, the real trouble lay in the inability to hit the basket at crucial moments. Three games were lost by three points, and another by only a four-point margin. Frankie White Shoesl, Osmer captained the squad and was outstand- ing for his floor work. Those who got into most of the games were: Guards, Henry Antognani, a cool and deliberate player; and Jack Nelson who would have played more if he didnt have to replace Osmer. Forwards, Roy Goodwin, a tricky ball handler; Owen Keena, most improved player on the team; and York Asami, veteran ball hawk. Centers, Elwyn Maitoza, a hard fighting tip-off man; and Johnny uFour Plays,, Lasich, game-saver and sucker shot king. Others who saw action were Gerald Hansen, forward; Katsumi Kozeni, forward; Walter Hashimoto, forward; Tom Mine, for- ward; Danny Mracevich, guard; and Glenn Arthur, guard.

TRACK OPED as a serious contender in the heavyweight division, the ,Cats, With injured and sore muscles, lagged behind Salinas and Hollister, scoring but 14 points in the C. C. A. L. meet. In the uBig 5h meet held at the Watsonville cinder path, the Wildcats gathered 34 points to flnish sec- ond to Salinas. Among the heavyweights, the best performers of the season were Sam Vucinich, weights; Bill Grul, sprints; and Fred Crosetti and Bob Worthington, middle distance runs. With York Asami garnering 1514 points in the C. C. A. L. meet at King City the ,Kittens won their first track title in the history of the school With 3 I points. The lightweights also shared honors with Hollister at the Hollister Invitational meet tzo schools representedt and Big 5t, meet With I461 WATSONVILLE UNION HIGH SCHOOL 22 points and 3 3 points respectively. York Asami, liKatsll Kozeni, James Izumizaki, Chetl, Colbert, Dan Vucinich, and Tom Mine won silver spikes for their season,s performances. In the midget division, Bill Mine, shot putter, stood out for the tiny mites by finishing the C. C. A. L. competition undefeated with tosses be- yond 48 feet for the only first place in the midget division. TENNHSS LTHOUGH the Wildcat racqueteers did not bring home the coveted league honors in tennis, the black and gold netsters succeeded in turn- ing the tide against the Pacific Grove BreakerSea feat never heretofore realized by Watsonville. The only obstacle in the path of the locals was the Santa Cruz netmen who were destined to become the C. C. A. L. champions. Victims of the ,Cats in addition to P. G. proved to be Monterey and Salinas. The latter forfeited seeing no chance for a Victory. The local team in order of their ranking was as follows: Bob Worth- ington, Leon Williams, Gerald Bitsyh Hansen, Bob Liles, Johnny Lasich, Joe ltStiltsl, Heatwole, Chet Meginness, Howard Shinn and Bob McGowan.

HASEAILL S the yearjs book was being published, the ,Cats and the Cardinals were in a deadlock once again with four wins and one defeat. Wat- sonville lost to Santa Cruz in first of the two-game series by a 4-2 score, but Hollister nosed out the Cardinals by a 9-8 count. The veteran squad was more than confident of avenging the defeat of last year. A Victory over Santa Cruz would mean the third major title of the year. With all-around batting and fielding strength plus the great pitching of husky Jim Hart, who hurled a no-hit, no-run contest against Salinas, the ,Cats walloped Salinas by 25-1 and 17-0 scores. Hollister was also set back by IOeI and 6-3 scores. Playing their last game for the Black and Gold in the title game against the arch rival, Santa Cruz, were: Captain James Izumizaki, 35; Tony Scalisi, lf; Frank Crosetti, Cf; Torn Mine, rf; Bob Ditlevsen, 2b, and Chen, Col- bert, u. Although Coach Geiser loses many players by graduation, he will be helped, however, by the return of the same battery of Jim Hart and Toru Asada, Bill Newby, Eddie Dykes, De Von Smith, Dick Willis, and many others who are expected to come up from the local American Legion I 9 3 6 Junior League team.

Then on down the lineebasketball, speedball, individual games, volleyball, baseball, kept us busy in our interclass com- petitions. The seniors came out with flying colors, winning most of the games and thus becoming winners of the Interclass Championship Cup. Helen Johnson won the ping pong tournament. This year the G. A. A. has enabled the Watsonville girls to compete in Play Days with surrounding schools, the hrst with Santa Cruz, a tennis and badminton tournament; the next, basketball and volleyball with Hol- lister; and third, hockey and basketball with Salinas. This was the first time these Play Days have taken place, but they were so successful we hope they will become annual events. At the Girls Jinx there were about 200 girls in colorful and original costumes, dancing, eating, watching a program and riding bicycles and scooters. The annual G. A. A. picnic was held in Capitola May I 6. A very good time was reported by girls with sunburned noses and sore backs. For two days preceding Memorial Day the girls were busily engaged in making wreathes for soldiers, graves. The Girls, Block W Society held their overnight trip at Big Basin. The C. C. A. L. Play Day at Santa Cruz wound up the eventful year. In the morning games were played; at noon everyone retired to the gym to eat their lunches while an Amateur Hour was being presented.
