Westwood High School - Chipmunk Yearbook (Westwood, CA)

Text from Pages 1 - 94 of the 1949 volume:

J WESTWOOD JR - SR HIGH SCHOOL NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FORTY-NINE A century ago rich men, poor men, honest and dishonest, farmers, tradesmen and merchants worked side by side for the same purpose, gold. To- day the rich deposits of gold have vanished, but still the sons and daughters of those men work side by side with another common goal. There is no quick and easy attainment of this goal. It requires patience and ambition, but once gained it can never be taken away. Knowledge is this common goal and it is far more valuable than the largest fortune ob- tained by the 1849'ers. Still, we must not belittle those men, for they made possible, to a certain extent, the wonderful system of education in our state today. The 49'ers were truly a great group of a great era. Dedication The Chipmunk Staff dedicates this 1949 edition to Mr. Walter C. Bristol in appreciation of his pro- ficiency as a teacher, his service rendered to the C. S. F., his understanding of the students, and his friendship and sincere interest in the entire student body. 3 3n Jilemoriam She was blessed with the gifts of teaching and of always trying to help her fellow man. Nothing was out of her way; when she helped anyone, she always did everything she could. When God took her away from us, it was as if he had taken a corner stone away from our school. We would like to thank God for giving us the privilege of knowing her and having her as a teacher, and a friend. We know now that he has taken her to his garden of paradise so that she might join his angels in teaching his gospil to all the world. Though God has taken her away from us, there shall always be a place in our school and in our hearts for her. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION I AdminUttedicM SECTION II GlaAA i SECTION III SECTION V Adae ilie4fte4iti SECTION IV After the discovery of gold in California thous- ands flocked there to earn a fortune. Because of this rapid migration, the West was thickly populated before there was proper authority. To make up for this lack of authority it was necessary for the 49'ers to iorm their own courts. The justice of the vigilantes was swift and many times violent. Today the stu- dents participate in their school government in order to prepare themselves for self-government. An execu- tive Council and an Administrative Council, in which the students participate, make the laws. The student control and the student court enforce these laws. Although the 49'ers showed the necessity of self- goverment, they also showed the necessity of prep- aration for self-government. —Shirley Avery 6 Principal’s Message There is a statement on one of the State build- ings in Sacramento that says in part, Give Me Men to Match My Mountains. The need for men— and women—has always been the cry of business, government and education. This '49er anniversary year has seen the need for men, big men, increase so much that it seems we will never find enough to fill all the demands. These needs require men with training in skills, men who can think, men who have the courage to stand firm for what they believe to be right. It is the sincere hope of the School Board, the Administration, and the Faculty that all of you pupils have had the opportunity to develop these attributes during this past school year and that you will con- tinue to use all educational facilities to further de- velop your abilities to be as big as any occasion demands. —J.

LOUIS BOSETTI President MARY GIANNINI Song Leader DICK GOODERHAM Treasurer STUDENT BODY OFFICERS This has been a busy year for our student body officers. They have been exceedingly capable in fulfillment of their offices. This year Louis Bosetti wielded the gavel; Lecho Guzman led the flag salute and headed the assembly sched- ule; Jo Ann Swanson kept the secretary's notes; Dick Gooderham kept the finances; and Mary Giannini and Ila Londagin rooted out the school spirit. On February 12th, the officers attended the Student Leader's Conference at Chico State College, where they discussed high school problems with repre- sentatives from other high schools. They also planned a spring carnival, and made plans for a new student body constitution. Others who also deserve credit are: Willmar Bowman, publicity manager, and Fritz Stoppel, athletic manager.

Cutright, Mrs. Frodsham, B. James, D. Edwards. Administrative Council The Administrative Council is the highest court of the school, it governs student affairs, helps solve problems of the school, and makes or revises laws. It is composed of six students and five faculty members. They are Mr. Bratton, Principal; Mr. Haskell, Vice Principal; Mrs. Frodsham, Registrar; Mr. Stump, Dean of Students; Mr. Randall, Director of Student Body Affairs; Louis Bosetti, Student Body President; Marjorie Cutright, Senior Representative; Lecho Guz- man, Senior Representative; Billy John James, Junior Representative; David Edwards, Junior Representative; and Tommy McDonald, Sophomore Repre sentative. Executive Committee The Executive Committee meets each Tuesday at 8 o'clock under the guidance of Mr. L. Randall. It is composed of all student body officers, one representative each from the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades, two representa- tives from the tenth and eleventh grades, and three representatives from the twelfth grade. The duties of the Executive Committee are to make and enforce rules, pay all bills, and to approve athletic awards. This year the Executive Committee revised the handbook, helped plan a combined Paul Bunyan-Sadie Hawkins Day program, and was instrumental in planning divided student body organi- zations for the Junior-Senior High School.

Sometimes school only lasted three or four months of the year and many students never reached the eighth grade. Everything has vastly improved since then. The schools are well ventilated and well lighted. The schools usually try to have the latest equipment and materials. Each class has its own room and the teachers are specially trained for the courses they teach. Sometimes the students moan and groan because they have to attend school nine months of the year until they graduate from high school, but deep within them they realize the importance of education. —Shirley Avery 14 —V ntffr Senior History The highlight of our beginning year in high school was the annual Sophomore Christmas Dance. This was followed by a very successful swimming party which was held at Susanville. During our Junior year we became more ac- quainted with all the different activities. We spon- sored the Junior Stardust Dance, and co-sponsored the Junior-Senior Prom. We also had a picnic with the Seniors. We finally reached our goal—we were Seniors. We enrolled on August 31, and before we knew it, it was time to graduate. In our last year we held a Valentine’s Dance, and co-sponsored the Junior-Senior Prom, and the Junior-Senior picnic. We had a picnic at Lake Almanor, and a pot-luck dinner and dance at the school. On our last month of school we held a field day, and gave the Senior play, The Adorable Imp. Jo Ann Johnson, Betty Serna, and Jo Ann Bcrs- com received life membership in the California Scholarship Federation.

But this was just a minor handicap to those hardy pioneers. They still had dances, where any man with patches on his pants was the woman, and they swung with their partners in a good old-fashioned way. Today the patches are not necessary, as there is no shortage of women, and social functions are enjoyed by both boys and girls. —Shirley Avery Back row: Mr. Bristol J. Adams, J. Bascom, M.

The 1949 Annual Staff, with the aid of their advisors, Mr. and Mrs. Mag- giora, put forth their best efforts to make a better annual. This would not have been possible without the co-operation of every member. The Annual Staff was financed by several sales at school and at games; a dance after the Big Game; sale of book covers; Christmas card sales; a con- tribution from the school; and advertisements from local merchants and mer- chants from Susanville and Chester.

Stories of general school interest, features of outstanding students and news pictures were included. They learned to write stories which would pass the journalism standards ior content, interest, and presentation. Each student had an assignment tor the paper which called for obtaining first-hand information, writing, correcting, re-writing. Every story printed gave the writer some knowledge about the style of newspaper writing. 4 , The class was very fortunate to be able to have a printed paper. The members of the staff included: Frances Martin and Marjorie Cut- right, co-editors; reporters, Louis Bosetti, loan Adams, Kay Deemer, Nina Belden, Barbara Rhodes, Jerome Lauer, Lecho Guzman, Ronnie Wilson, Lxirry Van Leuven, Rita Doering, Donna Rogers, and Darrell Barnes; advisor, Mr. Searles.

Junior Rod Cross The Junior Red Cross sent a representative to the National Red Cross Conference in San Francisco, and three representatives to the Regional Junior Red Cross Conference in Chico. The chief project of the year was to send the gift boxes overseas, and fifty-seven of these boxes were collected through the basic courses. The officers were: President....................................Anna Blakemore Vice-president............................... Mary Blair Secretary-treasurer.......................... Carl Romero Library Staff The iibrary staff is composed of students who work in the library during their elective periods. These students shelve books, file cards, read shelves, and take care of the books in a general way. The senior high workers keep records, type cards and orders, and do reference work. These students relieve Mrs. Bratton of minor details and thus make it possible for her to accomplish more. The library staff also help themselves by learning things that will be useful all their lives. But what is more important, they serve the school because the library serves the school. Back row: a.

The band plays at all assemblies except the business assemblies. It also plays at all home football and basketball games. The band held a party in the Youth Center during the second semester. They also held a pot luck and dance April first. Both parties were very suc- cessful. The band went to the Chico Music Festival this year. The music that was played was Lost Chord and American Patrol. The officers of the band were: Band Captain..............................Pat Stoppel Secretary-Treasurer.......................Betty Monay All in all, the band has been very successful this year and it hopes to continue thus through the years to come. Junior Band Westwood High School's Junior Band is composed of twenty-three mem- bers. It is directed by Mr. Allen Hastings. The Junior Band is more or less a beginners' class, to teach the students to play their different instruments. The band has played at one Junior High assembly. They‘played the fol- lowing pieces: Stepping Along March, Shadow Waltz and By the River. The band's music ranges from simple pieces to slightly advanced music. The simplest piece played was Evening Song, while one of the harder pieces is Yankee March. It is the hope of the Junior Band members to be in Senior Band in a year or so. Back row: B. Cloud, G.

They have, however, played at some of the dances throughout the year, and hope there will be more interest in the coming year. Chorus The chorus of Westwood High School is composed of twenty-nine members. It is under the direction of Mr. Hastings. The chorus sang at several assemblies.They also sang with the Community Chorus Christmas and Easter. The chorus sang at the Spring Festival in Chico, and at the May Festival held in Westwood.

Girls9 Block W” The girls' Block W has been doing a lot this year. They kept the girls from wearing other girls sweaters and wearing awards they had not earned. This year a committee got together and changed the point system. Now there will be bars in the blocks instead of stripes on the sleeves. They will buy their sweaters after the Freshman year and get a G. A. A. emblem and their numeral in their Sophomore year. In their Junior year they will receive their Block W and in the Senior year they will receive a very special award. This new system of awards will take effect with this year's Sophomores. The Juniors and Seniors will proceed with the old system. Boys’ Block WW” The Block W underwent a number of changes this year. The organiza- tion was very inactive during the first part of the year, so a constitution was composed in mid-year with many changes, including new rules regarding athletic awards and letter-sweaters. This reformation was just what the organization needed, and it became very active in the. latter part of the year. Plans for a Block W —sponsored dance were made. Plans were also made for the annual Block W banquet. All in all, a very successful and enjoyable year was attained by all members of the Block iAT. Back Row L. to R.. L. Guz- man, J. Flore . R.

The season started with softbalL Claudia Zoller was elected captain of the Freshman team, Wanda Oxford of the Sophomore team, while Billie John James was named Junior captain and Diva Andrioni, Senior captain. Due to poor weather conditions, softball play-offs had to be discontinued and the girls moved inside for volley- ball. Volleyball captains were Kay Bates, Jo Ann Phelan, 11a Londagin, and Joan Adams with the Seniors winning first place. Basketball got off to a roaring start with all of the teams ofiering keen com- petition. These teams were headed by Susie Garcia, Bobbie Jo Chessir, Billie John James, and Lila Florez. Group sports were followed by such individual sports as bowling, tennis, O Ae A badminton, and table tennis. The hi-light of our social season was the originating of Paul Bunyan Day at Westwood High with the Block W as co-sponsor. We hope that through our efforts this will become a tradition at Westwood. Other memorable occasions of our year were the Big and Little Sister Party, the hilarious Initiation of new members, the play-day at Quincy, our own play-day, and the fun we had working at our sales. All of these activities were brought to a satisfying close with our annual banquet, held at the High School Auditorium. O A. A Officers Back row: J. Gibson, L. Fregoso, Miss Heckerson, L. Flores, B.

Mr. Wlttry This year the Junior-Senior Ski Patrol of the Westwood High School once more enjoyed the great winter sport of skiing. In former years Westwood High was very powerful in this winter sport. When the war came many of the skiers were drafted. Now the club is again getting back on its feet. In the future years we will hope to be very powerful in skiing, because many youths of Westwood High are interested in competing in this sport. During the year the ski team made many trips to Mount Lassen, with two practices at Coppervale. The final trip was to Mount Rose. The trips were held on Saturdays, ieaving at eight in the morning and returning by five. Emblems were given to those skiers who made three successive trips to Mount Lassen or four trips in all. A Junior and a Senior member, who was out- standing in ability, sportsmanship, team spirit, leadership, and cooperation, was given a ski trophy. The three girls and the three boys who showed the most improvement were each given an improvement medal. There was a ski meet held by the local Rotary Club, Saturday, March the 12th and Sunday, March 13th at Coopervale. RALLY COMMITTEE Back row: K. Eran� , I. Smith, L. Walkor. D. Good •rham. J. Maxwell.

It was started by Mr. Haskell in order to produce better rally assemblies. As it has been in part the Assembly Committee, it has planned all the assem- blies. The committee also decorated the goal posts during the fall for the league games. Sal Y.MS i IOIX VZIV V 9UO Frog jumping was one of the sports of the 49'ers, as Mark Twain illustrated in his story The Cele- brated Jumping Frog.” They didn't have much time for fun, so such spectator sports were immensely enjoyed by all. Today the students enjoy many more sports, where they are able to actively participate. Sports have become a worthwhile addition to Cali- fornia's educational program. Besides building strong bodies, they teach the students sportsman- ship and how to get along with people. —Shirley Avery 54 Varsity Football Mr. Hoffman and Mr. Scarlett took the team out on the field and the team made an excellent showing. October 2—Westwood 7 —Modoc 30. The Jacks were a little over confident, and we were very discouraged by the outcome of the game. RESUME: Westwood managed to score only once in the whole game. Buzz carried the ball over for the only touchdown and Louise B. kicked the conversion. Final tally: Westwood 7—Modoc 30. October 9—Westwood —Stewart 0. The Jacks came back to revenge their loss of last week. We came out victorious. RESUME: A pass from Buzz to Lecho scored our touchdown, and the conversion kicked by Louis B. gave us a half time lead of 7-0. After holding the Indians scoreless in the last half, the Jacks were victorious with the final score Westwood 7, Stewart 0. October 16—Westwood 6—Red Bluff 0. In our first league game we felt like winning, thus we did. RESUME: When Buzz threw a pass to Jesse Camacho, we scored our six points. The con- version wasn't any good. Fritz Stoppel saved the game twice when he made two beautiful tackles in the closing minutes of the game. October 23—Westwood 7—Oroville 51. We don't know what happened in this game. You will have to ask Bombo, for he said we were going to make history. RESUME: Oroville kept up scoreless the first half with a 12-0 lead over us at the end of the first half. In the last half Buzz was able to run over for our touchdown. Louie had no trouble kicking the conversion. Oroville also scored in the second half. Alas, the end came too soon! Westwood 7, Oroville 51. October 30—Westwood 0—Redding 24. Com- peting with the top team of our league, every- one thought we would lose by (HO-HUM |) at least 60 to 0. They were surprised. It was a good game, and we should have scored. RESUME: Redding managed to score only twice in the first half. Thinking they would run up a big score in the last half, as Oroville did against us. Redding only scored two more touchdowns. November 6—Westwood 0—Chico 30. Chico came prepared to beat us, but we were de- termined not to let them. After thinking it over, we changed our mind. RESUME: During the game something went wrong with our passes. Instead of us, Chico was making touchdowns on our passes. Pete Lucero made a showing when he returned a kickoff 37 yards. November 11—Westwood 0—Susanville 0. Since this was our last and big game of the year we were going to fight to the finish. Ask anyone about the outcome. The team played an ex- cellent game that day. RESUME: The first half was about even, for most of the game was played in mid-field. The score at the end of the half was 0 to 0. All of the last half was played in Lassen's territory. Buzz came so close to the goal line that one referee raised his hands, indicating he had scored, but it was argued about and it was ruled that he had not scored. Joe Florez made the transcendent catch of the game, and had he not have been so tired he would have scored, for Jesse Cama- cho and Lecho Guzman made beautiful blocks on that play. Joe carried the ball 53 yards and was finally brought down on the Lassen 10 yard line. The game ended shortly after, and the final score was Westwood 0, Susanville 0. VARSITY FOOTBALL ROSTER NAME NO.

Six Man Football Mr. Takesian's six man football team went out to play football, although lacking in several techniques. Mr. Takesian drilled and trained them vigor- ously. In most of their games they were outweighed and their opponents were taller. They also didn't have depth in their reserves. Regardless of their handicaps the team made a splendid showing in all its games. The Student Body was well pleased with the vigor of the six man team, for they turned out to support the team. The scores of the six man games were as follows. Westwood 8 . Westwood 8 .. Portola 32 Westwood 8 Westwood 33 . ... Susanville 18 Westwood 13 . ... Greenville 39 Westwood 14 Westwood 12 . ..........

This is the first year that the “A team has ended up in fourth place in the Big Six League. In the league games the Westwood Lumberjacks were vic- torious in four games and lost six games. In non-league games the Lumberjacks won four games and lost two games. The A team followed, passed, and shot excellently all through the season. The Stud- ent Body was very much pleased with the excellent basketball team Mr. Hoffman had this year. Let us take a look at this year's season. It went like this: December 8, 1948. The Westwood A cagers started their season off with a victory over the Greenville Indians, 30-22. December 15, 1948. The Greenville Ind- ians came back and pulled this game out of the fire. It was a hard blow to Westwood, 33-32. January 4, 1949. The Lumberjack five made the Quincy Trojans bow to their mercy, 33-23. January 7, 1949. The Westwood cagers suffered their first Big Six defeat when they met Chico. 44-23. January 8, 1949. The Shasta boys made the baskets and Westwood made the noise, 35-17. January 15, 1949. The mighty Lumber- jacks shriek led the Quincy Trojans again, 53-35. January 21, 1949. Westwood went down for its fourth defeat. Oroville really showed Westwood, 38-24. January 22, 1949. Westwood trounced Red Bluff and started to climb the ladder, for a position in the Big Six, 31-17. January 28, 1949. The Lumberjacks didn't go to Susanville in vain. It was victory for the Lumberjacks that night, 28-22. February 4, 1949. After Westwood started their second round in the Big Six League, Redding was unmerciful toward them, 53-26. February 5, 1949. This was a practice game for Chico. Westwood did so badly that they would like to forget this game, 46-13. February 12, 1949. This was a hard play- ed game, but the Westwood boys just couldn't push over the Modoc five, 29-26. February 18, 1949. Westwood was in the lead all through the game. Red Bluff didn't have a chance, 42-28. February 19, 1949. Tonight was an off- night for Westwood's boys and the Oroville baskets were coming down like rain, 33-16. February 23, 1949. To the glory of the Lumberjacks, the Faculty (Old Men) couldn't turn the tables on them. Remember last year? February 25, 1949. To close their season the Lumberjacks wrapped, tied, and buried the Susanville Grizzlies. The Lumberjacks out classed the Grizzlies all through the game, 38-29. BUZZ BOMBO I L NAME J. Camacho M.

At the end of the games they tied for third place in the Big Six League. The B cagers racked up six games for their winning list and lost nine games. This year Westwood had one of the best teams in the Big Six League. They should have won more games, but something went wrong somewhere. The Review of their season was as follows: December 8, 1948. The B's started out with a Boom . Victory was theirs in their first game against Greenville, 27-13. December 15, 1948. It was useless for Greenville to try to defeat the Lumberjacks. Westwood, once more, trounced Greenville. 40-21. January 4, 1949. The Westwood cagers tasted defeat for the first time this season. Quincy had Westwood running all over the floor. 40-26. January 7, 1949. The Lumberjacks showed Chico what they could do when they downed Chico. 33-30. January 8, 1949. When they trounced Red- ding 38-28, it looked as if the Lumberjack B's were making it a habit to beat the valley teams. January 15, 1949. Once more the Westwood B's went down to the mighty Quincy Trojans 37-22. January 21, 1949. The Westwood B's were doomed this night, and they bowed to the Oro- ville B's 48-19. January 22, 1949. The Red Bluff cagers took home the bacon and the Westwood B's were left out in the cold 36-24. January 28, 1949. Thanks to Pete Lucero, the B's pulled this game out of the fire. Lassen put up a hard fight but not hard enough; final tally was 21-20. February 4, 1949. To suffer defeat from someone you had already beaten was very hard. Redding won. 47-27. February 5, 1949. The Chico B's got revenge on the Lumberjack B's. Everyone but the Lumberjacks was making baskets. Score, 43-30. February 12, 1949. The Westwood B's went down to their seventh defeat. It wasn't an easy game for Modoc, 34-30. February 18, 1949. Westwood B's racked up one more victory for their Big Six list. Red Bluff took their hats off for the Lumberjacks, 31-26. February 19, 1949. Again the Oroville B's defeated the Lumberjack five. This time the score was 42-27. February 25, 1949. It was hard for the Westwood B's to lose to Susanville. The game wasn't handed to Susanville on a platter. This was the closing game for the mighty Westwood B Lumberjacks, 48-46. HENRY TEAM ROSTER NAME NO. POSITION AGE WEIGHT HEIGHT CLASS POINTS MADE p.

Gregory, P. Trujillo, C. Howard, C. Vornon, C. Sundq-ixt, A. Huntor. ”C” BASKETBALL With good sportsmanship, fair play, and a fair team, Mr. Swift's C team took to the courts. The team had high hopes of winning all of their games. However, they ran into stiff competition, and they were only able to win one out of four games. In all of their games, except one, the scores were very close, and the winning team always managed to score in the last few minutes of the game. At the end of their season, the ”C team's scores were as follows: Westwood 23.........Susanville 25 Westwood 26.........Greenville 30 Westwood 20......... Susanville 18 Westwood 8..........Greenville 25 WD” BASKETBALL The tiniest of the Lumberjacks, coached by Mr. Randall, had a rough time this year. During the year the D team managed to win two out of five games. The D team was greatly handicapped because it was composed mostly of seventh and eighth graders. They were just too short compared with the other teams. These shorties'' of today will be the mighty Lumberjacks of tomorrow. The results of the D team basketball season were as follows: Westwood 23..........Susanville 31 Westwood 26....-....Greenville 20 Westwood 11..........Susanville 23 Westwood 14......

Baseball It looks like the boys at Westwood High really go for baseball. Coach Takesian had a big turn-out aqd there were a lot of boys that had had previous experience. An above average baseball season is expected this year. Westwood is going to play eight games, four away from home, and four home games. Susanville, Greenville, Quincy, and Portola are the four teams that Westwood will play. Track Cross Country Off to the races went the Lumberjacks. The field sports at Westwood went of well too. Hearing the pat, pat, pat of the runners makes the track season seem to be in full swing. Then there is the arched bamboo pole as the pole vaulter goes over the cross bar, and ''umph'' of the shot putter as he throws the shot put. The word crow-hopped was familiar to the broad jumpers; roll or scissors were in the high jumpers thoughts; and back to the track for the hurdlers and relay. Westwood's track team, considering the size of the school, was of good size and good strength. Mr. Wittry's track team participated in the track meets of the Big Six and of Northern California. As the Westwood Annual went to the press, the cross country team had just gotten under way, but hadn't yet held any of its meets. The team was strengthened by many returned veterans of last year. Coach Wittry said that their season was expected to be exceptionally good. In the yearly meet between Westwood and Susanville the Lumber- jacks were expected to make a splendid showing.

Way back in 1849 what newspapers there were took a long time to circulate and the postal system was slow. Much of the news was passed on by word of the mouthy Peddlers carried news as well as their products. The' news of the discovery of gold in Cali- fornia reached the East slowly. Communication has adyanced rapidly since then. Today advertising is a big business and billions of dollars are spent each year on advertising in newspapers, maga- zines, and on radios.
