The invisible evidence of controlled force is represented in our many modern day inventions-radio, airplanes, engines. Back of all these are the great natural forces of steam, electricity, and ether. just as these great natural elements repre- sent a Force, so do our lives represent a Force. This human force must he controlled, directed, and made to worlc for the uplift of mankind. In the life of Youth today, potential force exists for development. The challenge of the Woodrow Wilson High School is the correct and true guidance of this great force.-John L. Lounsbury. NN THIS age of machines, men have learned to appreciate the advantages of power. Vaguely, men apprehend the value of the brain power that created the products of invention. Men fail to under- stand the power of intellect, Recognition and development of brain power will inaugurate the greatest age of man.-C. I-I. Woodruff. NN THE material world that speaks of energy from its mighty industries, its marvelous achievements, only a small part of the Power is being used. In our mental life we develop only a little of our capacity. 1IGreat springs of Power lie undiscovered. What an adventure to move to lofty en- deavor and achievement!-Mattie M. Paine. EDUCATION should result in the de- velopment of each individual so that he may direct his power to the best advan- tage for himself and society. Each person chooses where and how he wishes to gain his education. That choice determines wheth- er Youth will become a constructive or a de- structive factor in society.-Alta Williams.

CAMDAN LE 1928 OARD OF GOVERNORS-At the conclusion of the second year of Wdson High School, we may review the program sponsored and carried out by the Board of Governors with great pride. QIThroughout the year the admin- istration of the Board was outstanding be- cause of the sound judgment displayed in handling executive affairs and the efficient organization which was built up in a short time and which functioned almost perfectly. 1IRalph Murray was chosen to act as Stu- dent Body President, and also presided at the sessions of the Board of Governors. In the capacity of president of the Student Body, he represented this school at the meetings of the Bay League Student Body Presidents which are called at frequent in- tervals. QIA large volume of business was handled during the year and Mr. Woodruff commends them on their fine work in the following terms: The Board of Governors is the most businesslike and efficient organi- zation in this school in their handling of Student Body Affairs. IINearly all of the school's business is carried on in the Board Meetings and a resume of the most impgl-tant measures Passed Show the amount ROSALIE BRASHEARS, RALPH MURRAY, DALTON MoBLEY, of Work done by our governors 'Iffhe RANDOLPH RICHARDS, THONIAS YouNG, PAUL SYLVESTER, Student Body Ticket was planned and put MRS' RUBY C' YAGER' C' H' WOODRUFF' before the schoolg budgets for Campanile and Girls' League were madeg managers were appointed for the various athletic teams, a Fire Department was organized, life passes were made for the Championship Class C Basketball Team, the Back-to-School Night was sponsoredg and a number of assemblies were held under the Governors, auspices. IIThe administration for the first semester was in the hands of Ralph Murray, Governor of Affairsg Rosalie Brashears, Governor of Welfareg Thomas Young, Governor of Safetyg and Dalton Mobley, Governor of Athletics. The cabinetis work in handling the Student Government was looked upon as a big success from the viewpoint of the Student Body. ffln the election for the second semester Ralph Murray and Rosalie Brashears were retained in their respective positions due to their manifold activities and prominence in Student Affairs, while Randolph Richards and Paul Sylvester were elected to the offices of Governor of Safety and Governor of Athletics. These Governors carried out practically the same policies inaugurated by the first semester's Board. ffMrs. Ruby C. Yager and C. H. Woodruff, Vice-Principal, served as faculty members of the Board the entire year. 928 CAMDA LE STUDENT COUNCIL-FIRST SEMESTER TUDENT COUNCIL-Woodrow Wilson's chief ideal was that of true Democracy. In this school which bears his name we have truly found his quest in establishing one of the most democratic forms of student government to be found in the high schools of this country. 1IThe executive branch is taken care of by the Board of Governors, while the group corresponding to the legislative body in state or national government is the Student Council. 1IThe Councilmen are elected from the thirty-four Home Rooms, one represen- tative coming from each section who hold weekly business sessions. Some of the major duties of the council are: to check the activities of the Board of Governors, to accept or reject the charter of any club which wishes to organizeg and to attend to the regular business of the school. 1IThe spirit of the organization is particularly Democratic in that every student may participate in his government and may suggest any plan or idea to his section representative who will present it before the Council. 1IThe activities of the Council are not fully appre- ciated until we remember the hated monitor system, and the permanent seating arrangements for assemblies that are to be found in so many schools. It has been through the influence of this group that these banes of self-government have been kept out of this school. Many skeptics insisted that it would be impossible to give high school students so much freedom, that they would be sure to abuse it, but they have been decisively proved wrong and an interest has been built up towards government that makes it possible to allow the Student Body even more freedom. QIThe gold VV plan, whereby one who takes part in enough activities to earn fifteen points is given a Gold '4W,' pin and if twenty five points are earned a jeweled W', is presented, was originated by the Council. The plan met with immediate success and awakened the interest of many in school activities. 1IBecause of their efficiency and trust- worthiness, we have come to turn to the Student Council to remedy any evil that arises in school life and whenever we need a telephone booth or find that the bells do not ring at the proper intervals, we immediately register our complaints with our representative with the as- surance that they will be remedied if it is in any way possible and if the problem is reasonable, CAMDANILE 928 STUDENT COUNCIL-SECOND SEYIESTER OME ROOMS-The 'latest innovation to be introduced into high school educational circles is the Home Room plan as carried out at Wilson High School. 1IUnder this system, the students meet for a short period each day in groups of from thirty to forty pupils. These sections are divided according to grade. A daily program is ar- ranged so that one day is given over to the discussion of school business. one is used for vo- cational guidance, another for clubs, and the remaining two days general assemblies are held or individual programs are presented in the Home Room. IIOfficers are elected each se- mester and a representative is chosen to attend the Student Council. Repozrs are given weekly concerning the activities of the council which are discussed and any plan suggested and ac- cepted by the Home Room is presented before the next council meeting by that section's representative. IIThe aims of the Home Room Course, as defined at the first of the year, are: to instruct pupils what and how to study, to offer a complete survey of the educational opportunities to be found in high school, to cause pupils to realize that a high school educa- tion pays in dollars and cents, in happiness, in ability to render service to the community, to give vocational guidance, and to develop the desire in each pupil to occupy a useful place in the world. QA survey of the various Home Rooms show that these aims have more than been accomplished, and according to the faculty advisers, the system has benefited the stu- dents in the following ways: A spirit of interest and comradeship has been fostered between members of the section, and a democratic spirit is promoted by having almost the entire re- sponsibility rest upon the officers and the class. lISchool routine in filing cards and making out programs is greatly hastened, interest is created in school government and an active part is taken in school affairs, vocational guidance is given and many students are enabled to choose the correct course of study to prepare them for college or to give them a solid founda- tion for the business world, and finally the school policies are clearly explained, the standard of scholarship is raised, and a general knowledge of current events and public speaking is gained. 1IIn all, the work of the Home Room has surpassed the expectations of its sponsors. ..

Filmy dresses in rainbow hues con- trast with the grey caps and gowns of the Seniors, and the pastel polychromery gives a softly dream-like effect. The magic of fairies is woven and blended into its graceful, beautiful coloring. The carrying of the daisy chain is a loving service freely offered by the Juniors to Seniors. CAMDANIL 1928 ENIORS, JUNE '28-This is sta- tion W. W. H. S., Long Beach, California. This program comes to you today through the courtesy of the June Class of 1928, in their world premiere. It signalizes commencement of the Woodrow Wilson High School. 1IThey are broad- casting over world wide hook up of 162 superstationsg they have worked all contin- ents, encircled the world which has grown too small, in their radio work. QThey are speaking to the largest radio audience in the world. IIStand by while Lyman Ander- son, chief announcer, tells of the class in the field of radio and brings before the mi- chrophone, celebrities of national repute. QIf'For years the radio world has sought to find some way to banish that one tantalizer of the receiver and broadcaster-static. It remained for The Class to startle the world by perfecting a means to prevent static-the winning of the Lions' Club Trophy in 1927. The master control of this work was success- fully guided by the leaders, Lyman Ander- son, announcer, his assistant, Fred Ziesen- henneg with Claire Allabach and Harry Dougherty handling the circuits of corres- pondence and finance, respectively. In 1928 The Class is still generating that same power in all branches of athletics. 1I The Class tossed into the air waves its musical LYMAN ANDERSON, VIRGINIA ACKLEY, FRED ZIESEN- HENNE, EMERY GODARD, CLAIRE ALLABACH, HARRY DOUGHERTY, JULIAN GREENUP, J. K. WADE. talent, interpreted by distinguished artists of the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs. Stand by for their new numbers. fl Not content with one type of broadcast, in 1927 The Class scaled new heights in dramatic ability in presenting their guest artists in The Little Ministerli and in 1928, The Intimate Strangersf' With Fanchon Roberts as editor, they published this beautiful book, Campanile. lIThe Class spun its dial to the hike, the Senior dance, and Catalina Outing. QI4'They maintained continuous broadcasting service through four hard years of conscientious work. IIStand by, I am going to turn the michrophone over to The Class who will chant in unison a closing greeting. IIWe, of The Class of 1928, do not wish to leave our beloved station without offering some token of appreciation for the great help given to us by our teachers and Woodrow Wilson. Therefore, we bequeath to our Alma Mater the Senior gift and the 1928 Campanile, a memory of our happiest days at Station W. W. H. S., a sincere God Speed to the home of all our joys, and all our love.

Speed, superspeed. Enough words to fill several long novels. HWith Milo Sagerhorn, editor, Thomas Young, man- aging editor, Richard Heald, business man- ager, and a large staff of members, the news is covered in every city on the globe. They spent 575,000 to cover the story. Every Senior B is a front page headline. The latest stride was sending a message around the world in eight minutes. Their leads number prominent students at Wilson. Sagerhorn's basket shooting has been the drawing card for street sales, Young polled heavy votes on the S. A. E. Cup, on basket ' making, as a Wilson governor and yell leader. Heald and Forbes are champions of the Southland. Weiss, Gilbert, and Richards are dramatic artists and impressarios of the first rank. Brown, Shelley and McFadden write banner headlines across the sport pages. Evelyn Williamson, Rice Ober, Betty Drummond and Marjorie Sanderson write all the big stories on topics of national interest. No power today has such influence in changing the world-no force has made the world so small. Airplanes, radio, cables do our bidding. We are the people's text book. Ten thousand sheets are published daily and sold for two cents each. Public opinion is molded in our hands.

The passenger list included leaders who scored many touchdowns and launched and won national drives fCampanilej. QIThe most memorable social affairs were given on the voyage: the Man on the Box, a brilliant comedy. the Junior Vaudeville which set a record in box offices, and the sumptous Captain's dinners Qunior-Senior Proms, held at the Hotel Virginia. lIWhen the Junior Class Special glides into the port of graduation in 1929, it will have accomplished its purpose and leave memories of conscientious labor and enjoyable achievements. The skyline-the whistle blows-Pier '29. 1 l 1 L 928 CAMIDANIL SOPHOMORE CLASS OPHOMORES-The last wonder of Wilson-the last dynamo of power-is her giant Skyscraper-the Sophomore class. As Skylines are America's own contribution to architecture, to power and efficiency, so the class stands out as a tower of strength to Wilson's future. Iffheir foundation goes down to bed rock, their massive frame worlc is of riveted steel, their height of many stories fas outreaches the Woolworth building-a thousand win- dows send their lights slcyward. This sky- line may be seen from mountain top, dis- tant plain, or far at sea-it is ever a beacon of progress, of security. It is a modern city in itself-with its hundreds of people fstu- dentsj working out the future of a newer Wilson. Qlwhat better could symbolize Wilsonls dreams of a great future than a fairy skyscraper building-not built of stone, concrete, and glass, but of hundreds of ac- tive, intelligent students who, through view- point and vision and fine perspective, are bringing her to her rightful place on moun- tain top of education. Their first leap slcy- ward came when they crowded the Juniors ,CAMDAN ui 928 for a 320-319 sale of Campaniles in their finest effort of loyalty to Wilson. Another color- ful event was the presentation of a Crimson and Gold banner from their skyline to Wilson. An inter-section traclcmeet reenforced their steel riveted class spirit. Not followers, but creators, their class President, Bob Hall, initiated the council of home room presidents, which has been adopted by upper classmen. The engineers of this super structure were Russel Self and Bob Hall, their assistant was Artelle Spathg Don Gunn and Morris Harper oversee the 500 offices in the buildingg Lawrence Gibboney and Rudolph Ziesenhenne attend the renting and collecting of finance. Mrs. Gladys C. Marsh directs the elevators and sends the sophomores to the tower. Its balconies and domes are inlaid with gold mosiacs as they write their history in gorgeous colorings-each mosiac is selected for its beauty and faith in Wilson. The pano- rama from its tower is dazzling. In 1930 this shaft will stand sun-crowned above the fog. 928 CAMIDANILE O WEST-The West, that vivid panorama which stretches before the eye, from one end of the Pacific to the other, will be on display in the Pacific Southwest Exposi- tion to be held in Long Beach this summer. It will show to an interested world how magnificently the West has been developed since the days of 349 when the miner came to the Pacific, with a pick-axe and the desire for gold. QThe grounds, situated in the Harbor Dis- trict, cover 60 acres, and contain 50 buildings. Spanish and Moorish architecture predominates, blending with the Southern California atmosphere. IIThe leading nations of the World are planning to send representatives, realizing that the Exposition marks a mile stone in the growth of the new West. fIThe schools of Long Beach are cooperating by preparing numerous exhibits, under the direction of Harry Moore. They have been working all Spring on these exhibits. There will be well worked out notebooks and maps from the Social Science de- partment, lucious cakes, muffins, and other dishes from the cooking department, chic dresses from the Home Arts department, gorgeous displays from the Art department, and so on, through every phase of school life. 1IAnother feature will be the publishing of a city- sized newspaper. Poly High, Woodrow Wilson, and the Junior College will each edit an Expo- sition Extra, giving pertinent news of their school, as well as facts concerning the exposi- tion. QA yachting regatta will be one of the high lights of the entertainment, just outside the amusement zone, which will rival New York's famous Coney Island. 1IThe exposition will bring to Long Beach a new birth, a re-awakening to its place in the great West. AMPANILE LITERARY CONTEST-The Campanile Literary Contest was held this year under the direction of Miss Katheryn Harrison and the Literary Editor, Marian Princehouse.

These ideals our pageant sought to glorify, and in honor of this man, the pageant was produced. QI The Quest of Youth - a pageant-the final step in the dedication of our school was originally presented at three performances, December 14, 15, 16, and re-presented April 2 in honor of the California Secondary Principals. QIThe whole theme, plot, script, and production were created and developed in our own school by our artists and three hundred loyal students. Hlt was deemed fitting that the pageant be clothed in the garb of medieval chivalry whose coura- geous sacrifices for its ideals belonged no more to medieval times than to the present. Each age may weave its own interpretation of ideals, but the qualities of character which seek diligently, which dare valiantly for I-lonor's sake, must be eternal. QIThe original idea of this pageant was suggested to Miss Burdick by a poster showing masses of people pouring over a drawbridge into a castle, and to this idea was added the conceptions and work of many others. 1IThe Pageant Story-Approaching through the darkness in an endless procession, the Youth of all ages pour into the castle. Youth and his companions follow. They find it to be the Castle of Education, always open. ffYouth paints for Wisdom his ideals of success- Adventure, Fame, Wealth, Power. Although Wisdom suggests that these goals may easily degenerate into Folly, Vanity, Greed, and Selfishness, Youth is impatient to be off. No sooner is he on his way than the Phantoms of Ignorance assail him. Youth fights valiantly, but finding he is being overcome, seeks again the Castle of Education. QU-le implores Wisdomis aid, promising allegiance if he will but prove Education worth while. Then comes the vision of Service, and realizing he has found the object of his world-wide search, Youth pledges himself to the high ideals of Wisdom's Court, is knighted and receives Education's gifts. lIThe lofty theme was embellished in a lofty setting, a massive castle with turrets added strength, multicolored lightings wove subtle atmospheres, brocaded robes and shining armor approached the royal, the banquet scene was an hour of magic, the Knighting of Youth ap- proached the Galahad story, the chanting through the ages echoes still. The work of Randolph Richards as Youth, and Roy Walker as Wisdom, was most inspiring. ffGorgeous prophetic tableaux were means of presenting the ambitions of Youth, which while he told Wisdom of his zeal for Adventure, Power, and Fame, appeared in the distance by means of complicated lighting effects and a mystic curtain. QIThen as Wisdom explained to Youth that the bright visions were, in reality, the selfish desires of life, the lights playing on the masks changed the expressions of the figures in the tableaux, and what he sought as truth turned to grim folly. llThe students and teachers who threw their creative ability into the pageant are a legion. fflV1ore than 8000 people caught its message and were inspired by its idealism and beauty. From the Southland came artists, from the entire state educators gave it their benediction, the Dean from the University of California doubted whether the Berkeley institution could produce such a moving spectacle as the pageant. Perhaps the finest thing that grew out of this production was the 'ckeeping faithi' through the countless months of preparation that this ideal might grow into a soul. While some fashioned ermine, others created medieval at- mosphere by weird lightings, some gave Youth a soul through song, orchestral symphonies lifted the whole to the majestic, and the Youth of Wilson, fired by the high ideals of the pageant, poured their joy into work and met rhe challenge of the great Woodrow Wilson. 1928 CAMDANILE CAMDAN Llf 928 HE INTIMATE STRANGERS-With the presentation of The Intimate Stran- gers by Booth Tarkington, the Senior Class skillfully gave an ultra-modern comedy- drama, which fairly bubbled with modern youth. 1IMargaret Herod as Isabel, the most interesting maiden guardian of a flapper of the new generation was delightful in her portrayal, while the sophistication of Jim Weiss as Ames, the bachelor supposedly bored with the new generation and life in general, was unsurpassable. 1IAlice Thomas, the vivacious flapper, kept the audience in an attitude of pleasing humor, and Johnnie White, played by Kent Bell, proved an ideal balance for Florence, as her youthful suitor. ffGeniece King played one of her interesting character parts as the great-aunt of Florence. Ed Gilbert was a typical country-town station master and Harriet MacLaurin and Dick Spano were humorous servants. 1IThe plot developed around Ames' interest for Isabel, whom he met while de- tained in a one-train-a-day town in a raging snowstorm. QAmes had voiced his dislike for the modern flapper, and Isabel, hoping to convince him that modern youth is still alluring and charming, extended her hospitality to him for a week-end during which time he not only became aware of the fact that youth is most delightful, but also that the woman of the late twenties is just that much more charming. ffMargaret Herod will long be remembered by two clever lines, A woman is as old as she makes men behave toward herf' and 'lThe most romantic woman isn't so romantic as the least romantic man. The following lines typify Alice Thomas, as Florence--A'I'll bet you I can go until day after tomorrow night without any sleep. johnny- And never close your eyes? Florence- No, nor my mouth either. . 1IMuch credit in due the business staff, consisting of Lyman Anderson, production manager, Reggie Barden, assistant production manager, Merle Pohlmann, business manager, Rose Waite, assistant business manager, Virginia Mertins, advertising manager, Claire Allabach, assistant director, and Jane Turner, property manager. 1IToo much cannot be said for the stage settings. The success of this phase of the play is due to Miss Ruth Burdick and the stage crew, Miss Katharyn Kennedy was director and proved herself a coach of the first magnet. This finished production in its many ramifications was a dramatic masterpiece in its entirety. IQZS CAMDAN I L AN ON THE BOX-The presentation of a clever three-act play, The Man on on the Box, was one of the outstanding successes of the Junior Class. Two per- formances on May IO-11 were successfully given before audiences appreciative of the rare humor and brilliant acting. 1IThe plot centers around the alleged kidnapping of Betty Annesley, a Washington debutante, by Lieutenant Robert Worburton, who poses as a cabman. Willo Gean Hanson and Russel Self were admirably cast in these roles. Bob is arrested and the judge insists that whatever was taken be returned. Betty finally tells the judge that it was a kiss, and Bob is given thirty dollars or thirty days, therefore Betty pays his bail and employs him as her cabman. IIBetty, attempting to find out who Bob is, forces him to serve as butler at a dinner of the elite of Washington. The climax is reached when Count Karloff, a Russian Diplomat, interpreted by Thelwall Proctor, tries to buy plans of fortifications from Betty's father. The plans are foiled. Of course, Bob wins Betty, so the play ends just as happily as anyone could wish. IIMarjorie MacMillan was Betty's best friend, Arthur Buell portrayed in convincing fashion the Washington elite, Roy Walker carried the heavy role of the aristocratic colonel with ease as he struggled between honor and treason. 1IGeorge Howard gave a forceful presentation of Judge Watts the judge, and judge Watts the suitor. Sara Mosher as Mrs. Conway engaged Judge Watts in a flirtation to foil his plans for her friend. Colonel Raleigh was played by L. M. Bolton. The court officers, Don Harris and Bill julian, plus the maid, Elizabeth Panero, and Klayton Chapman and Robert May, formed a quintet of mirth-provoking characters. lIMiss Burdick and the stage crew. were responsible for the impressive stage sets-the royally dignified living room scene with its vivid lighting effects, the open door and brilliant display of green house and garden beyond. The play was presented under the expert direction of Miss Martha Smith. Credit is due the production staff composed of Lita Morris, Roy Walker, Lynn Stewart, Frances Wheaton, Ramona Simonson, Esther Ballard, Kathleen Whitmore, Eileen Ryan, Thomas Mathews, Bob Holdeman, Ivan Bowman, Isabel Sheller, and Jim Stoddard for their successful work in directing the management, advertising, publicity, costuming, staging, and press stories. gl CAMDAN LE 1928 RAMATIC ART- The Monkey's Pawn was a tragic drama of the supernatural. Geniece King, the mother, had a part demanding delicacy. Bob Kimberlin was well suited in the portrayal of the grieving father. Byron Ward, son, was con- vincing in his part. Jim Weiss, the bluff major was excellent. Miss Kennedy produced this cameo of dramatic art. IIHAH Gummed Upv was appealing in its action, suspense, and laughter as the youthful actors dipped into matrimonial atmosphere. jim Weiss skillfully handled the role of physician. Don Harris in his usually easy manner assisted the physician, Miss Smith substituting for Ardis Long was highly received. Alice Thomas, Wilson,s own, always wins her audience. QA dapper family of social climbers in straightened circumstances furnished the vehicle for the subtle charming humor of the one-act comedy, Where But in America. Ardis Long, always a star, kept the house bubbling with her impersonation of the stubborn Swedish maid. Luther Bartron, henpecked husband, filled the role admirably. Dorothy Andrus, the wife, gave a graceful performance. QI The Boor, a one-act comedy, offering Don Harris first as a burly Russian soldier and a suitor afforded an entertainment of much zest. Alice Thomas as the grief-stricken widow handled the part well. Randolph Richards, servant, added many laughs. 1IDick Spano, cast as the convict in The Bishop's Candlesticks, gave a fine interpretation, in his final appearance for Wilson. Sharing the lead was Roy Walker in portrayal of the righteous bishop. Jane Turner ably filled the role of the bishop's sister, and Sara Mosher, Jim Weiss, Bill julian, and Don Harris completed the Cast. CURTAIN CALL-Call back the seniors-actors, stage crew, and costumersg throw your bouquets from the balcony, the parquet, and pit. Give them this flower from the grateful fan-their own Woodrow Wilson. lIGive them not one call but many-turn on the spots-flood the stage-make it brilliant, roseate in their grand finale. IIThat group of seniors has appeared in diversified roles, in many guises they came when Vfilson came, that crew has built up multicolored atmospheres and settings, those costumers have created robes of gossamer and ermine and rare jewels, they have given Wilson's handsome auditorium a soul. Tomorrow they play greater dramas, set greater stages, create new roles in the pageant of Life. 7 Z A ZZ i 928 CAMDANI E STAGE CREW-Adviser: Miss Ruth Burdick, Manager electrician, Ivan Bowman, Assistant, Bob Holdemang First Semester: Ralph Dawson, Property Manager, Maurice Ruckle, Flymang Herbert Eachus, Carpenter.

Moore as director, and a membership of forty instrumentalists, has been one of the most useful organizations to the student body. The orchestra played for all assemblies, school plays, and ac- companied many of the major presentations when vocal music was required, such as the Dedi- cation Pageant, song rallies, and Junior and Senior Plays. 1IDuring the past year, the in- striufnentation has been excellent-quite symphonic in fact, and the personnel numbered many clever and talented young musicians. 1IDuring the past semester, the orchestra has had numerous engagements outside of the school, a community service concert in the Municipal Auditorium, one at the beautiful Brea-Olinda Union High School in Orange County, still another at Poly High School, and a private recital for the members of me Long Beach Municipal Band and their families. QThe annual Spanish Fiesta was served by the or- chestra, as were both Commencement exercises. The Dedication Pageant was replete with incidental music and again this orchestra rose to the occasion with music suggestive of the many moods of the great drama. IIThe musical ability and the work of this group of boys and girls represent years of preparation, a willingness to serve Wilson High Schoolis excep- tional ideals of character, service, loyalty, and citizenship. 1IThe officers for the first se- . mester were M. Edith Smith, Presidentg Stanley Morgan, Vice-President, Ted Primrose, Secretary-Treasurer, Paul Lawrence, Manager. Those for the second semester were Robert Stewart, President, William Woodard, Vice-President, Winifred Thomas, !5ecretary-Treas- urerg Paul Lawrence, Manager, Stoddard Wilson, Librarian, George C. Moore, Director. ECOND ORCHESTRA-The second orchestra is composed of ambitious boys and girls working with the incentive of becoming members of the Advanced Orchestra. This organization, under the direction of George C. Moore, who has found it a very inter- esting class of representative young American citizens, has not functioned to a great extent in school activities, but is always ready to respond when its services are requested. In view of its very fine worlc, this orchestra played at the matinee performance of the Junior Play. CAMDANILE 1928 AND-There is no factor that affects the prestige and position of Z1 school more than orchestras and bands. Their very influence is stimulating, harmonizing, inspiring. Everyone has been aroused to action, felt a new urge, reached new heights of loyalty and purpose by stirring band music. QIOn the glad days, game days, rally days, the band has led us in Wilson spirit. Loyal to the man, they have practiced in the wee hours of morn- ing to give Wilson pep for her great days. lIThe band represents an ambitious class of Wil- sonians ever eager to be of service to the school. Because of the crowded condition of the calendar, the class met at seven-thirty in the morning, and according to Mr. Moore, absences were almost unknown. QA band may be of inestimable service to the student body if it so desires. The Wilson band has proved itself to be no exception to this rule, for it has played for all pep assemblies, games, and civic events, 'Service to Wilson, first, last, and always. QZS CAMDANILE f , at , . ,I BOYS, 0111413 ' LEE CLUBS-Theulthree glee clubs,-' have scored emphatically throughout the year as they have presented brilliant hburs of song to Wilson, Luncheon clubs, to the City of Long Beach, and to radio audiences all over the Pacific Coast. Their aud- iences from platforms probably number ten thousand, while the radio audiences are innum- erable. IIThey have appeared in one hundred ten public recitals, glowing tribute and ample proof that they are musicians of first merit, that they have found their place in the Long Beach Music and Club circles, that they are sought by the leading organizations of the city when colorful, artistic programs are desired. lIAlways prepared with a varied program offering a shimmering play of emotion, ravishing beauty of tone and colorful conception of theme that missed no shade of meaning or melody, they have always pleased. QIThey have been a potent factor in uniting, building and stimulating the greater Wilson in the classic art of song. No organization in school has given more loyally or lavishly than have the Glee Clubs. No organization has been more instrumental in enlarging the bonds of Wilson both in school and in the city. No group has appeared on so many platforms. In their short two years they have talcen rank side by side with musical groups of years, development. 1IThey have given recitals over KGER and KFON to their greatest audiences. They have appeared in inspiring offerings before the City Teachers' Institute. 1ISharing honors with other high lights of the Quest of Youthf' the Glee Clubs aided in lifting it to a fine idealism in the Knighting scene. Members from the Boys' Glee Club appeared as knights in glistening armor with helmets, swords, and silken banners, their rousing chorus matched the lofty theme of the story-the sacred Knighting scene where Youth was given all the symbols of virtues in life, was composed of members of the Gleei' Clubs as were the squires who appeared later in the minuet. IIThe brilliant chanting processional of the Pageant of Youth through the ages, vague, shadowy, evanescent, suggestive, appearing and disappearing in form and voice, was composed of the glee clubs. It was a rhythmical spectacle expressed in tone-so mastered that nothing marred the harmony of its spell. QIStill again in the Secondary State Prin- CAMDAN 928 SENIOR GIRLS, GLEE CLUB cipal's Convention, the Glee Clubs appeared in recitals carrying their work to all California as well as did the wandering troubadors who punctuated the entertainment at the Beach party. 1IThey are lcnown to all the business men of the city through luncheon clubs where they have offered programs some time during the year either a few numbers or full recitals. These clubs include Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions, Exchange, and a host of others. Ifprograms marked by enthusiastic receptions and a fine lcind of sentiment were the exchange programs with Polytechnic I-ligh School. These programs are annual traditions and are one of the finer bonds that bind us with Poly. fIDuring the Girls' League Cabin Drive when the school was joined in a network, the Glee Clubs scored repeatedly as they visited the service clubs. During National Education Week they assisted in many programs, during the Music Convention they again appeared before musicians from all California QDuring the Spanish Fiesta the Glee Clubs furnished the major part of the evening's program: every number was professional in character and brilliant and subtle in its humor. It easily divided honors with any event of the day and its reception by the student body was in a class alone. Scores in gorgeous costumes made up the colorful array of the casts. ffln addition to the concert and ensemble numbers, versatility was shown by individual soloists, quartettes, and sextettes who appeared on many platforms. Qlduilding up an atmosphere, setting and character for the clubs were the smart uniforms worn in every public recital. The Senior Girls' Glee Club had costumes of powder blue-sweaters and flannel slcirts. Fluffy flowers in pastel shades completed their dignified beauty. ffThe costumes of junior Girls' Glee Club were a maze of brilliant colorings-every lovely pastel or rainbow shade was blended together in a sym- phony of its own. lIThe Boys' Glee Club appeared in white sweaters, white flannel trousers and crimson and gold ties. Emblems especially designed by the Art Department were worn on the lower left side. This will be the permanent uniform for the Boys, Glee Club. lIDur- ing the first semester, the membership of the three Glee Clubs ntunbered one hundred twelve, during the second semester its membership was increased to one hundred thirty five. e 928 CAMDANIL UPPER PICTURE-JUNIOR GIRLS, GLEE 'ZHORUS-First Row: Harriet Hughes, Verna Smith, Violet Shotliff, Nellie Andrews, Virginia Blume, Wanda Sandburg, Eclnaruth Cytron, Pauline Pierce, Irene Middough, Lucile Mann.

This calm sea and warm evening air made her drowsy. She glanced at her wrist watch and sighed. It was only eight o'clock. She must manage to stay up another hour, because sleep was so fattening. 1IShe reflected that so far as her own ambitions were concerned that trip had been a total failure. She yawned and took another half-melted chocolate from the box at her side. She had come on the cruise with the young newly-weds, the Peytons, with a definite purpose in mind. That trip was to rescue her from the endless round of bridge luncheons and teas, the lazy drifting life, and her ever-increasing obesity. IIOnly a decade or so ago she had been beautiful, had enjoyed the admiration of her friends, and had been sure of social prestige. All this had fallen away from her as she had gradually allowed her beauty to be shut in by a disfiguring case of fat. She wondered if her husband's devotion would have survived this dreadful transformation, had he lived. QIAII at once Bella had realized that she was fat and forty and alone and that she must make an effort to save herself. She sighed again as she thought of Professor Cchlimmeris gymna- sium, with all its horrible machinery, the rollers and pulleys, the electric horses-all the diabolic tortures of the Spanish Inquisition revived. And those sweat baths were tedious, monotonous hours shut in a cabinet as a Puritan offender in a pillory. She remembered the terrible pang of hunger and the longing for just one box of chocolate creams. Through these three months of torture and exertion of extreme will power, she had gone from two hundred and fifty to two hundred and thirty-five pounds, only to gain it all back again in one month of luncheons and dinners. fLThen came this cruise with never a day of seasickness, such excellent food to tempt her never-failing appetite, and such long nights of sleep. Left much to herself, what could she do but read, eat chocolates, and gain pounds. She yawned and stretched her plump white arms. She would have to give up and go to bed. IIBella rose heavily from her chair, picking up the box of chocolates, went to her stateroom. Soon, despite the increased pitching of the boat, she was snoring contentedly. lIThe next morning Bella awoke to an unusual quiet. Hoping that it was early, she looked at the clock. It was five minutes to nine. She would need to hurry for breakfast. She dressed quickly and went to tap at the door of the Peytons' stateroom. There was no answer to her knocks, and, supposing that they had already gone up to breakfast, she went upstairs. As she passed through the salon she was surprised to see the chairs and all the loose furniture piled to one side. Still she encountered no one. HThe deck was swept clean. The ship had evidently passed through a szorm in the night. None of the crew was about. Where could they all be? Many of her fellow-passengers were early risers, they must be at breakfast. But in the dining room she found no one. And there was that strange stillness everywhere. IISuddenly she became aware of what she had been noticing subconsciously for several minutes, the fact that the boat was tipped very much to one side and that she was having difficulty in maintaining her balance. IIA panic of fear siezed her. She rushed from door to door of the cabins and staterooms, calling. And only the echoes of her own voice answered her. IIShe ran on deck once more and made the final despairing discovery that both life boats were gone. How could they, how could they desert her? She sank in a despairing heap and sobbed. HA longing for her breakfast chocolate assailed her. After she had foraged in the galley and appeased her hunger, she went out on deck again. The ship was caught on some rocks and rested there on its side. She must get away before it sank. But where, and how would she go? That dim outline over there must be CAMIDAN LE 928 an island. And here was the dinghy. If she could launch it, she might get to land safely. The sea was calm enough now. IITwo hours later Bella pulled up on the sands of a small island. All the muscles of her body ached from this unwonted exertion, and hunger again assailed her. But she must go on to find her companions. She walked up the sandy beach, munching the chocolates she had rescued from the ship's refrigerator, hallooing loudly be- tween bites. IIBut instead of the passengers of the Astor, a band of gaunt black women stepped from among the trees. Bella squared her shoulders and stood prepared to die fighting. Much to her astonishment, the women, instead of rushing savagely upon her, approached slowly and with clasped hands and smiling faces walked round and round her, seeming to ad- mire her huge uncorseted figure. One, with a ring in her nose and a scar on her forehead, bolder than the rest, patted Bella's plump arms and tapped her second chin. fIBella was horrified. They must mean to roast her for dinner. If she were only thin, they might let her live for awhile. But here she was, already fattened for their feast. She sank weakly on the sand and stretched out her pltunp hands beseechingly. Any fate but that-any fate but the dinner pot. 1ITen of the strongest women stepped forward and lifted her gently. They bore her swiftly under the trees to a group of huts. Others of the women, who had run ahead, entered the largest hut and with loud chattering forcibly evicted a large black woman. Then Bella was taken into the hut and placed on a rough platform. QISome of the women smiled and bowed reassuringly at her, while others took off her shoes and stockings, exposing her large, white feet. These they all kissed in turn, and some even passed their hands over her fat calves with seeming satisfaction. Qliut Bella, in her passage to the hut, had noticed a huge, black cauldron with a bright fire crackling underneath. She felt sure that her fair white skin, devoid of fur or feathers, would mean an easily-prepared meal. She laughed dryly at the irony of it, that she had gained all this flesh only to grace a cannibal feast. Why, there was enough of her to feed the whole tribe! IIAt this point other women came bearing baskets of tropical fruits and little, flat cakes, very sweet. She ate and felt her courage renewed. Then suddenly a loud clamor arose at the edge of the village, hoarse shouting, and through her doorway she saw a band of stalwart, black men approaching. They had just come from the hunt. Some bore on their shoulders the carcasses of antelope. 1IThe women crowded about gesticulating and chattering. The evicted fat woman was the loudest and most imperious of all. But the old crone with the ring in her nose and the scar on her forehead thrust her aside and led the men to Bella's hut. They entered, bowing and smiling, and came to kiss her feet. They pointed to the spoils of the chase which they had just put down before her door. 11Then Bella knew that this was not a cannibal tribe, that she was not to be served for dinner, that among these gaunt, black women her size was rare and admired, that they had chosen her for their queen. She rose and smiled graciously. By gestures she gave orders that the meat should be prepared. The women deftly skinned the animals, cut them up, and threw the meat into the steaming cauldron. 1ISoon, as Bella sniffed the savory odor, she thought with a contented sigh how she could enjoy the dinner. She would eat without restraint, indeed, she must eat to retain her position as queen. Luscious odors of meat siezed her, the wafted odors of tropical fruits added their juicy concoctions, memories of denied sweets, chocolates, ices, pastries, royal parfaits, flooded her very soul-the peace and contentment of it all was a rainbow mirage. Strange luxuries awaited her-royal patronage would be lavished-poured out upon her. They would love her round form. Bella had found the right place at last.-Frances Coxen. 928 CA-MDANIL WANDED LIJST NSHDULD uni TD rouow A THE WANDEIQ-A we wmv E LDDSED EDDM EAD AWAY WILD DLACES WINDS WITH THE STIQENGTH DE EIQEEDDM TD DLDW ME CAIQESS ME DADDY ME IEYDHILADENA WEDED I SHDIJLD LIKE TD TIQEAD THE DATH DE AD- VENTUIQE TD LANDS IN THE HEAIQT DE ' THE SUNSET LANDS DUL- SING with THE IBADIBAIQIC uvfs or YELLDW E .

I arrived early to obtain a good seat and be entertained by the kaleidoscope view of people. Being early gave me a chance to study the faces around me. There were some good, some evil, and all the many degrees be- tween. Here mingled the rich, the poor, the high, the low, the intelligent, and the ignorant- all drawn by a common bond, the gaming instinct of humanity. lIMy own Kentucky blue blood was aroused by the great excitement, and I felt that I must pick a winner. I glanced down the long column of names, ranging from that of a soda fountain drink to the name of the latest screen star, which was given on the program for the day's races. To me they all looked equally good or equally bad. I had no hunches, so I could only trust to fate. I decided to play eeny, meeny, miny, mo. My finger moved slowly down the column and stopped at the name, Google Eyes. As my ancestors had for centuries owned race horses, I knew that I, as a true daughter of the South, should not risk family honor and choose a poor horse. The selecting of that name was of fateful importance to my conscience. The bugle blew a sharp, echoing call to attention, and the horses came walking down the track. Cin their backs were jockeys dressed in brilliant blouses of many colors. I watched eagerly for Google Eyes. I am not a judge of horses, but, when I first laid eyes on him, I felt it would be a hard race if he won. He was the smallest and friskiest of them all. Life, in his young eyes, was a gay and innocent holiday, and the thought of the money pending on his gentle gait bothered him not at all. I-Ie even forgot about the little jockey on his back and in his prancing about knocked him completely off the saddle. Though I could not see into the eyes of Google Eyes, I could feel the malicious gleam of intelligent wickedness char glinted from them as he watched the jockey squirming in the mud. Then, realizing that he was riderless and therefore not respon- sible for any lost articles such as jockeys, he kicked his dainty little heels in a gesture of glee and started skipping down the track. I-Ie was not running a race, just taking a gay little frolic for his own amusement. QIIt took five minutes to bring back Google Eyes and restore the rider to his rightful seat. Then the horses formed in a line at the starting place. Google Eyes had a sense of originality, and, upon seeing all the others in a straight formation, he flicked his rail impishly and turned around, facing the exact opposite direction. With a few switchings his position was arrighted, and he stood with the others. QA pop of the gun, and the race was on. Not for Google Eyes, however, who stood for fully a half minute watching the others in gentle surprise. What sort of a game was this anyway? Then he decided to play too, and away he went, tail, jockey, and all. He was yards behind the others when he started, but at the half point on the race track Google Eyes had caught up with the race. QIThe grand- stand cheered and howled with admiration and surprise. Come on, Baby! Come on, Google Eyes! Ride him, boy, ride himlv You plucky little horse, come on inf' I yelled louder than anyone. I prayed harder than I ever had before. And Google Eyes, spurred on by his success, with a merry fleet-footedness led on to a victory. QI experienced thrills beyond expression in those short three minutes, while the wicked little Google Eyes won my everlasting affection. With a heart full of exultation I gazed proudly around me. I had saved my honor by proving myself a true horsewoman. I had chosen the winner. Now I was one of the crowd, one of that fellowship united by the bond of excitement ana sportsmanship found at a horse race. My Kentucky blue blood had found expression.-Marian Princehouse. CAMDAN 1928 ILSON LOUD SPEAKER- Starting the year with great enthusiasm, the Wilson Loud Speaker has proved itself to be of inestim- able value to the campus life of Wilson during 1927-28, which marks the second year of its existence. The paper has in- creased in size from the old three column page to the present five column page, since the opening of school. 1IOn September 15, 1927, the first Loud Speaker of the year was published and two thousand copies were distributed to the student body.

GTO you, Juniors, if this book gives inspiration, a desire to do and live, a courage to strive higher for Wilson, success is ours. 1ITo you, Sophomores, if this book reveals the spirit of Wilson, traditions, the spirit, yet the fact of Wilson, then we are successful. 1IMay this Campanile we are successful. 1IMay this Campanile mean to you-Woodrow Wilson.-The Editor. CKNOWLEDGEMENTS-This year the Campanile has been successful through the loyal help extended by the firms of the business and professional world, and through the banner support and cooperation given by the Faculty and Student Body in the Campanile Sales Drive. The following, within and without the school deserve special mention for their help: llldella Sieben, Editor of the 1927 Campanile, for her valuable help and advice dur- ing the entire year. lIThe Long Beach Photo-Engraving Company, whose accurate work has made possible the multiple number of pictures. QIThe Beach City Printing Company, whose suggestions have contributed toward many technical and typographical improvements. IIMr. and Mrs. Wiliam Way of the Way Studio for their courtesy in producing the countless number of studio pictures. Qjames W. Wilson of the Raymond and Weilenmann Studio, who has contributed so much of his time and energy to the taking of group pictures. HA. W. Sealock of the Coast Envelope and Leather Products Company for his careful attention and suggestions in making a beautiful book. IIThe Journalism Classes, whose writing has enriched the pages of this Campanile. fl-The Art Class, whose drawings have made possible the elaborate theme of this book. ffThe twelve hundred who have cooperated.-The Staff. CAM AN LE 1928 THE SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY CHOLARSI-ITP SOCIETY-The activities of the Scholarship Society this year have been varied and pleasing. One especially fine thing the society did was to offer student tutors to all those students who were behind in their studies. Every member of the so- ciety malces it his aim to encourage a higher standard of scholarship throughout the entire school. 1IThis year the Scholarship Society has been under the direction of Miss Alice Johnson, Miss Anne Stofflet, and Dr. Elizabeth Collette. The officers for the first semester were: Don Lewis, President, Vivian Jay, Vice-President, June Borden, Secretary, Fred Ziesen- henne, Treasurer, and Marian Princehouse, Publicity Manager. Those who served for the second semester were Alice Thomas, President, Onalee Repp, Vice-President, Artice Couch, Secretary, Bernice Wedum, Treasurer, and Marion Princehouse, Publicity Manager. QIThe members of the Scholarship Committee of Five were Claire Allabach, senior member, Alberta Brown, junior member, and Edward Fisher, sophomore member. QIThe Scholarship Society, this year, had ninety members. Each semester, the names of the members are printed in the School and city papers. IIThose who received the California Scholarship Federation Pin this year were Rosalie Brashears, June Borden, Onalee Repp, Alice Thomas, Artice Couch, Claire Allabach, Sybil Mitchell, Fanchon Roberts, Erna Schweitzer, Virginia Mertins, Fred Ziesenhenne, Tobe Hart, and LeRoy McCord. An assembly was held to present them, with Alberta Brown acting as chairman. 1IThe first semester the society went on an exploration to visit Occidental College. While there, the members were given the privilege of visiting classes and were entertained by the students. The second semester a banquet was held at a city club. After the dinner a delightful program was enjoyed, consisting of both outside and local talent. lIThe regular meetings of the society are held once every quarter. In these meet- ings a short business session is held and a program is then presented. Short business meetings are called every month during the regular club period. 1IThe Membership increased im- mensely at the opening of the second semester. Ar this time, Dr. Elizabeth Collette was ap- pointed adviser of the society to take the place of Miss Anne Stofflet, who had resigned. 'lf 1928 CAMDANILE RATORY-Woodrow Wilson dur- ing the past year has made great strides in oratory. It has been a memorable season, and the interest that it has awakened in the student body promises to pave the way for even greater achieve- ments in the future. 1IOur participation in Oratory has been limited to two contests, the Briand Peace Oratorical Contest, and the National Constitutional Oratorical Con- test, but as this goes to press, plans are being laid to have a representative for Wil- son in the Redlands University Declama- tory Contest. 1IThe coaching of oratory was carried on by Sam E. Gates, with the assistance of several other members of the faculty. Qrfhe Briand Peace Oratorical Contest is based upon the proposal of per- petual peace, made to the United States by the French Minister of Affairs, M. Briand. The object of the contest is to spread senti- ment in favor of world peace. lIEvelyn Williamson was picked from those who tried out to represent Wilson at the city finals. Her oration, '4Disarmament, was given a S50 prize over a field of six other speakers from Polytechnic High School and RALPH MURRAY, RAMONA siMoNsoN, JIM WEISS, L. M. Long Beach Junior COHQQC- Her first BOLTON, EVELYN WII,LIAMSON, Rice oBER, sAM GATES. achievement is especially commendable. llln the National Oratorical Contest, which is nation wide in its scope, to have a few students enter this contest is honor, but to have a huge field as Wilson had, is a true distinction. Elm the preliminary contests, twenty-five entered the ranks of those competing for the honor of representing Wilson. This field was narrowed to six by the elimination contests held to determine who should speak before the student body in the final school contest. Qln the final contest, Ralph lVlurray's speech, The Spirit of American Citizenshipf' was judged best, and Ramona Simonson, speaking on The Improved Constitution, was given second. Others who took part in the finals were Evelyn Williamson, Rice Ober, Jim Weiss, and L. M. Bolton. Qln winning first prize, Ralph won the distinction of speaking for Wilson at the district finals held at Phineas Banning High School. There, Ralph was given third place. HAH of those who worked on these projects deserve the sincere commendation of the student body for their efforts. QA good measure of future chances is the summary of experienced material to be available next year. Only one whose picture appears on this page will be lost to us by gradua- tion, thus leaving a fine field of material in oratory for further achievements next year. CAMDANIL 928 EBATIN G - Woodrow Wilson's final debate summary for the year shows two victories, and two de- feats, which tied us with Redondo for sec- ond place in the Bay League. First place was earned by our proverbial enemy, Comp- ton. 1IAt the debate conference held the first part of the year, the question, Re- solved, that a Department of Education should be established in the United States,', was adopted for all first semester debates. 1IUnder the able direction of Byron N. Scott, Wilson's representatives engaged in two forensic meets during the first part of the year. Our affirmative team, LeRoy Mc- Cord and Erna Schweitzer, met the negative team of Compton High School before the local student body. The judges gave Comp- ton the decision by a 2 to 1 count. Comp- ton was later judged the champion of the Bay League. The negative, L. M. Bolton and Ralph Murray, journeyed to Hunting- ton Park, where they were defeated 3 to O by Huntington Park,s affirmative, AI. though neither team was awarded a victory, they were judged debaters of the first rank. QIThe question for the second semester debates at the mid-year conference was, Re- solved, that the Jury System should be abolished. After a series of eliminations, the team was chosen from the ample squad that reported the second semester, and the results of these two meets justified the choice of the teams. llwilsonfs affirma- tive team, Betty Drummond and Marjorie Sanderson, won 3 to 0 over Venice. Rice Ober and Ramona Simonson, upholding the negative at Redondo won a 2 to 1 victory for their superior defense of the jury sys- tem. QIThe work of coaching the second L. M. BOLTON, RALPH MURRAY, RICE OBER, RAMONA SIMONSON, BETTY DRLTMMOND, MARJORIE SANDERSON, LE ROY MC CORD, ERNA SCHNVEITZER, SAM E. GATES, BYRON N. SCOTT. semester debate teams was done by Sam Gates, to whom we owe our thanks for the time and thought spent with our debaters, working toward victory. 11Wich six experienced debaters coming back next year, and a plentiful field of new material eager to try its hands at debate, indications point to keen competition for places on the team and a strong bid for the cup. 928 CAMDAN I LE THE R. 0. T. C. UNIT HE R. O. T. C.-The organization of the R. O. T. C. has proved to be of in- estimable value to the student body of Wilson High School. The objectives of this unit are vast and extend over various phases of school life. The primary considera- tion, however, is to produce reliable student officers by teaching drill and military order. It is interesting to note that the R. O. T. C. creates a corps of men who are prepared to take up arms at any time that a national emergency calls for assistance. This past experience helps the R. O. T. C. immensely in gaining a high rank in the army if they are drafted. However, they would not be drafted first, but in the normal order. lIThe training of the Wilson R. O. T. C. group is under the direction of Colonel B. B. I-Iyer and his assistant, Sergeant Ben Griffin. Three days of the week the boys are trained in drill. This includes closed order, extended order, and fire arm drill. The other two days are spent on special work, such as automatic rifle, fencing, sketching, and code. The sketching and fencing are taught by Colonel Hyer, the automatic rifle by Sergeant Griffin, and the code by Lieutenant Russel Alexander. 1IAside from these things, many interesting and stimulating lectures are carried on. The subjects in this lecture course are: drill, extended order, military discipline, scouting, patrol duty, firearms, and nomenaclature signaling. lIThe organization of the Woodrow Wilson Unit of the United States Reserve Officers Training Corps is headed by nine student com- missioned officers. They are: jack Russell, first lieutenant, Russel C. Alexander, second lieu- tenant, George Kline, first sergeant, Willis Griffin, sergeant, Gordon McCain, sergeant, and jack Rose, Klaton Chapman, Albert Thompson, and Frederick Wakefield, corporals. 1IWil- son may be justly proud of such an outstanding organization as we find the R. O. T. C. to be. From this group will undoubtedly come some of the leaders of :omorrow who will guide the citizenry of the United States. lIOver and above the technical training, comes that high training of citizenship. This organization not only teaches broader citizenship, but the finer and deeper meaning of the ideals of this country as well. Tomorrow the United States will need citizens of the highest calibre to carry out the functions of our own great republic. , w , ., I i X , WlLSOH Llrli CAMDANIL 1928 ILSON LIFE, WILSON TRADITIONS-These pages are dedicated to those finer, more splendid ceremonies-those great moments, those staunch friends, those lustrous trophies, those all-American students who have built up a treasured senti- ment for Woodrow Wilson. QIGreat moments came last year, too late to be recorded, with a note of regret-other supreme moments come too late to be recorded here. 1IFive such fine moments enriched Wilson life when the Music Cup, which will be annually presented to the most valuable members of the orchestra and band, was presented to the school by the Women's City Club, when the American Legion trophy cup appeared with the luster of the classic Holy Grail between rich folds of drawn curtains, when the Exchange Club Cup for scholarship radiated forth its resplendent rays, luring students on to higher scholarship, when the coveted bronze medallion was placed in our trophy case for basketball championship of Southern California, and when the S. A. E. cup was engraved with Tommy Young's name for being the most popular athlete with the highest grades last year. QIThese handsome trophies, tokens of interest in our success, pledges of support and loyalty from clubs of this city, have shared in the building of the finer traditions of the school. QIThe shining Silver Loving Cup will be presented annually to the most valuable member of the orchestra and band. The names, Raymond A. Cheeseborough for the orchestra and Evan Bower for the band were en- graved in the metal last year and this year the names of Paul C. Lawrence for the orchestra and William H. Davis for the band were so honored. Gene Irvine is given honorable mention for orchestra and Richard L. Russell honorable mention for the band. The R. O. T. C. cup was presented for a year to Wilson in R. C. T. C. contest of efficiency with Poly High Unit. 1IThe Scholarship Cup will be traditionally engraved with the name of the class having the highest scholarship average. The June Seniors of 1927 were the first to receive this honor. The quintet of lightweights who brought the first Southern California Champion- ship to Wilson High School, and with it the burnished glint of the bronze medallion to our trophy case, were presented with life passes to all Wilson sport events. 1IThus the ceremo- nies, presentations of symbols are perhaps of little intrinsic value, but glorious in sentiment. 928 CAMIDANI LE OLD W -Foremost among the various honors bestowed upon the students of Woodrow Wilson High School is that of the presentation of the gold W.'7 In order to win one of these coveted pins, a student must earn fifteen points in school activities, while twenty-five points are necessary to win a jeweled gold W, which represents the highest and most significant honor in Wilson life.The points are won in phases of schol- arship, athletics, music, dramatics, publications, and executive offices, as well as various other activities. Iffhe students who were awarded these pins represent a wide variety and range of ability and service given lavishly and unselfishly. 1IThe presentation of the pins to the nineteen students was an outstanding and impressive occasion. Superintendent W. L. Stephens left his multiple tasks and presented the pins, which was an honor within itself. In a short but forceful and inspiring address, he emphasized the importance of the ceremony and thanked the winners for their accomplishments at Wilson. The following five students were the first individuals to be singled out of the Wilson student body and awarded the jeweled pin: Lyman Anderson, Virginia Lee Mertins, Dalton Mobley, Rose Waite, and Rosalie Brashears. Four- teen received the gold W. They are as follows: Fred Ziesenhenne, Tommy Young, Ralph Murray, Paul Sylvester, Richard Spano, Alice Thomas, Stanley Hill, Emery Godard, Wini- fred Cole, James Munholland, Merle Pohlmann, Artice Couch, Mabel Pettes, Onalee Repp. gig, ..,: :.L :.k VK,,:.

I3 ACK-TO-SCHOOL NIGHT-This night brings Mother and Dads, teachers and stu- dents into a nice happy get-together atmosphere that generates volumes of Power fto use the theme of this boolcj. QIOne huge dynamo, perhaps more silent but marvelously subtle, penetrating and urging, generates the Force that permeates Wilson from foundation to tower. 1IlVlothers and dads of Woodrow Wilson, we salute you-you are our hearts and our hands-we are all pledged, bound, inspired by definite aims-to reward you, mothers and dads, to develop worthy manhood and womanhood, and to glory our institution. An old student, a graduate from another institution, said recently, after visits to other schools, that Wilson had the finest bunch of boys and girls he had ever seen-there is joy and pathos in that-your dreams and ours come true. 1IOn this fest night we generate more Power. i 1' 1928 CAMIDANILE RID BANQUET-Morley Drury, Long Beach all-American Quarterback, was the speaker of honor at the Woodrow Wilson Annual Grid Banquet tendered by the East Long Beach Industrial and Improvement Association at the Recreation Park Clubhouse in the greatest joy fest of the year. The famous sports' luminary spoke intimately to one hundred guests including Coach Oak Smith's complete pigskin band of fifty. Super- intendent W. L. Stephens delivered a stirring address and Coach Oak Smith, Charles Hunt, director of Physical Education, and John L. Lounsbury commended the football men for their noteworthy efforts. Captain Ralph Jackson announced Benjamin Butler as his successor to the captaincy and then introduced his squad. 11Sid Wrightman's orchestra supplied music during the feast, and Clarence Crary and Doris Dolan, KFON entertainers, favored with songs. Howard Deems entertained with humorous songs and stories. QThe Clubhouse was tastefully decorated in red and gold by the Girls' WH Club, who carried out the football motif with goal posts and footballs. A miniature football field was on the speakers' table. IQLANKETS-Among the splendid pledges and expressions of good will to Woodrow Wilson are the crimson blankets with the massive gold '4W's',-the gift of the Long Beach and the East Long Beach Exchange Clubs. How they flashed when Wilson's football idols first wore them and dedicated them gloriously in the battle with Santa Monica. QAMDAMLE 1928 UARTERBACK STEPHENS-Donning the crimson and gold jersey, Superintend- ent W. L. Stephens carried the ball over, ran his team, scoring touchdown on touch- down as he fired the Bears with new fight, and made inroads on the morale of the Inglewood and Santa Monica reserves. QU-le appeared on the platform in a rally staged for the Inglewood game-he is always a forceful, magnetic speaker. He always scores, but on this occasion he reached new heights as he carried the new Wilson, eager, cxultant, trium- phant, with him-in line bucks and ends runs as he urged them to victory. Q11-Ie said in part: Hlnstitutions like this are not built of bricks and mortar, of stone or steel, they are built by the character of the people who make them. Wilson high school has an opportunity this afternoon to establish herself as a school that accomplishes things worth while. The school is being tested: you are building a tradition of what can be expected of the Woodrow Wilson High School in the future, Eyes are turned on you. I-low will you meet the crisis? fIOur team is only as good as it is when it is backed up on its two-yard line with Inglewood determined to go through for a touchdownf' Un the Santa Monica game we met this testl BUSSES FOR BEARS+Adding their dynamo, spirit, and zest, the Long Beach Lions' Club chartered great busses for the games which moved out, packed to the bursting point with Wil- son fans and charged with pep, fun, and flying streamers. Every Bay League city was invaded by the charging horde of Bruin rooters, who faithfully backed their team to the limit. 928 CAMDAN I L IESTA DAY-Ho for Fiesta Day! The day that's dearest to the hearts of Wilson- the day of gaiety, of joyous carefree abandon. Alluring senoritas, swaggering senors, dashing dons, and dignified donnas.

Books, bells, and bulletins taboo-woe to him who thinks of themes, theses, or term papers. Welcome im- promptu parades in the foyer, hats off to the caballeros. Welcome to the zoreador and his senorita, to the flashing matador. lIAway with the omnipresent sandwich and salad-all hail the burning ramale, the blistering enchilladas. 1IChile, the tortillas, frijoles. QIRed, green, gold, and orange mantillas, combs of all heights and sizes.

The patio speaks-the patio's second baptism of gaiety-location ideal. IIRavishing senoritas, capti- vating Caballeros. IIThe queen of the carnival waves her magic wand and sets free a blaze of glory in the athletic carnival. QA hundred booths coax you to ice-cream, soda and candy. Fair maids from old Spain with their dashing senors make merry in dance on the green. Could Wilson abandon Fiesta day-never-so long as boy and girls are Youth. Everybody plays-teacher and student are pals-Wilson receives a new birth-a new understanding.

It has a tang, a freedom, a get-together all its own. IIThe whole fabric of the school is built around this spot, the delicious odors that purge and permeate the patio. Nothing at Wilson can match the chatty fests, idle moments, the real times-the embryo and advanced romances, the purple moments, secret sorrows et cetera, et cetera, that it has given its voice to. fI:Man is always at his best when fed-hence our wager for the fountain-when the fellows and the girls get together for thirty minutes of sheer joy mingled with the malts and shakes and specials-while the fountains turn out tubs, cones, tutti-frutti and lcolderpoles and from the depth of the boxes come Hersheys, malt bars, cherry nuts, peanuts, cream cakes, good bars, fudge bars, and on and on ad in- finitum. lIOver here a bunch are eating cones-over there a bunch are sipping straws. lflt is the social hour, the mixer, the co-op-free, impromptu-that functions every day- never lacks pep, dynamo, power, leaders, entertainment, programs and lots of things to eat. The atmosphere reflects the spirit of the students-that carefree, untrammelled abandon. 928 CAMDAN LE OWER PILGRIMAGEfIn' her two short years, Wilson has implanted certain beautiful traditions deeply in the hearts of her students. One of the precious tradi- tions of which graduating seniors will carry away choice memories is that of the inspiring Tower Service. Qlrfhe climb to the top of Wilson's lofty tower is reserved for Seniors alone. It is symbolic of their dreams, their aspirations, their ambitions. Each station on the upward climb has its own symbolism, but most significant of all is the top, with its joys which may only be tasted by Seniors. For the wide, blue prospect seen from thence, the mountain top view obtained represent the clear vision of Youth and its far-seeing range. ABLET OF BRONZEfOne of the foremost achievements of the February 1928 grad- uating class was the presentation of a bronze plaque to the school. This plaque is an honorary tablet, and there is space for the names of the highest scholarship students for the next ten years. Dalton Mobley, President of the-class, unveiled it with a fitting presenta- tion speech the night of graduation. The first name to be engraved thereon was that of Evan Bower, the valedictorian of the class who presented it. Students for years to come will be inspired to greater scholastic endeavors by the sight of this tablet on the wall of the Auditorium. There it will be ten years hence, a monument to the efforts of worthy students. Sopho- mores entering and seniors leaving will be awed by the knowledge of what it represents. Y ..

CAMDUIGIQ CAMDAN I LE 1928 Ng Q X' 1928 CAMIDANIL IRLS' LEAGUE-The Woodrow Wilson High School Girls' League has proved itself to be one of the most outstanding organizations, participat- ing in every phase of school activity by the promotion of drives, assemblies, programs, and social activities. It has decidedly lived up to one of its most important and staunch purposes- to help in the growth of a dis- tinctive uplifting spirit in the Woodrow Wilson High School. Ijiidoremost among the social activities of the organization, the Girls' League Banquet is recalled as a most successful and enjoyable achievement. It was held November 10 with Alice Thomas acting as toast mistress. Miss Paine made the principal address, and the girls were entertained by members of the Thespian Club -in a short skit. Jane Gregor's orchestra provided music during the banquet. Girls on the hospitality committee acted as wel- comers at the Principals' Convention, and ' a spirit of friendliness was created for the ALICE THOMAS, MABEL PETTES, LORITA HENDRICKS, incoming Sophomol-C5 at the beginning of both semesters through the Big Sister Movement under the leadership of Mabel Pettes. Both pay and free assemblies have been conducted by the organization. The Thespian Club presented Enter the Hero to raise funds for the cabin and also The Boor under the auspices of the G. A. A. for the same purpose. fThe Faculty Vod-vil was by far one of the most successful entertainments held during the year, a percentage of the proceeds going toward the Cabin Fundj Dean Bush of the Junior College was guest of the high school at an assembly presented in December. James McGarrible, baritone soloist, and Miss Madeline Gumprecht, soprano, were guests at Girls' League assemblies. Numerous girls' assemblies were held also. The Mothers' Day Candy Sale was successfully conducted in May, and last but not least the Spanish Fiesta, the second annual festivity of this kind, was sponsored by the Girls' League on May 25. On this day the student body revelled in a most unique and pleas- urable program amid an atmosphere of color and gaity. Due to the cheerful and valuable as- sistance tendered by the many advisers, the cooperation of the girls in the league, and the untirin efforts of those engaged in Girls' League work, the year has been successful. The staff ofg this organization, in view of its accomplishments during the past year, wishes-to express to the entire student body of the Woodrow Wilson High School its sincere gratitude in return for the cooperation it has always given this past year. lIThe business of the Girls' League has been carried on almost exclusively through the three bodies of which it is com- posed: Executive Board, Advisory Board, and Council. Members of the Executive Board were MARGARET DOIDGE, JANE NICCOLLS, MISS MATTIE PAINE. CAMDANIL 1928 UPPER, ADVISORY BOARDQ LOWER, LEAGUE COUNCIL.

Through the leadership of this executive group and with the able guidance of the ever cheerful Miss Paine, the many commendable activities have been accomplished this year, IIThe Girls' League has proved itself equal to any task. Countless projects have been placed before its members, and each time they have come throughn as perhaps no other organization in school could. One commendable feature of the League's present administration is that they never allowed interest to lag. Every girl in school seemed to feel that she was an integral part of 1 1-1 1 1 - r .1 1 - HS 1 .4 1 fra, NJ, .r,....l.-., ,L -Lc f',....-Il L-- 3 gs 928 CAMDANIL ABIN-The Girls' League Cabin Drive represents one of the most prodigious and fruitful undertakings of the yearis program. The log cabin is situated in the Sierra Madre mountains, about two miles above Roberts, Camp. It was a gift of the Ramoth, a local organization, and will house forty girls. Hln order to repair the cabin it was ne- cessary to raise a sum of 81500, therefore, a Cabin Club was created to direct the raising of funds. Much credit must be given to Miss Stonebarger, adviser, Alice Thomas, President of the Girls' League, the combined Boys, and Girls, Glee Club, and the Girls Athletic Association for their part in the campaign for raising funds. QIThe largest amount of money was gained through the sale of logs and tags. Parents, service clubs, and various or- ganizations demonstrated their interest by the purchase of logs. The Rotary Club was the first to be visited, and the members bought 5115 worth of logs, presented two victrolas and a number of records. 1IOther clubs which contributed liberally to the fund were the Lions, Club, Kiwanis, Eastside and Long Beach Exchange Clubs, Improvement Association, and Optimists. QAt Wilson the cooperation of the organizations was stupendous. The Home Rooms contributed S503 the Thespian Club, 5140, and the various clubs and faculty were lilcewise exceptionally generous. Gifts were presented by Mr. Hunt and Mrs. Ballard. Two hundred dollars were pledged by the Long Beach junior College, who will share the cabin. Glee Clubs presented musical programs at the service clubs. And thus, with the cooperation of the student body of Wilson and the citizenry of Long Beach, the cabin fund has reached inestimable heights, and the dream of happy weelc-ends in the lofty ranges of Sierra Madre has practically materialized into a reality for the Wilson girls and the Junior College women. Mr. Wilson will be in charge of the repair worlc of the mountain haven. Qplans for furnish- ing and decorating the cabin to harmonize with its natural setting are under the direction of Miss Dorothy Challcer. Vivid colors will predominate throughout the interior with a riot of steel blues, jade greens, scarlet reds, and duslcy purples. The curtains will be a bright cheery chintz. Every detail for comfort, atmosphere, and attraction will be purchased. Those who are especially interested are considering naming it The Bear Trap. It is easily remembered, but will be suggestive of our emblem, the Bear, a vital factor in Wilson life. CAMDANIL 1928 RMY CLUB-All students taking R. O. T.

These men have upheld Wilson traditions, in second year of its existence, by dis- playing all the qualities of intelligence and sportsmanship that so characterize true lead- ership. Their work has been highly instru- mental in producing teams of the calibre that has represented Wilson High School in 1928. QIAccomplishing the almost im- possible, the Wilson athletic teams, under the leadership of capable captains, were in the running till the final game for both the Bay League football and basketball titles, as we go to press, the wrestling team is making a strong bid for the Southern California Championship, the golf team, also, has thus far been undefeated, the tennis and base- ball teams, suffering handicaps, have made particularly fine showings, the varsity track team was molded into a powerful aggrega- tion and placed high in the Bay League meet. The cross country team, while not in any league, worked hard and now gives evi- dence of furnishing strong competition for any team next year. QU-land in hand, and in no small sense responsible for Wilson's successful year, was the spirit and enthus- iasm evidenced by the entire school, as well as the whole of Long Beach. Color reigned supreme throughout the year, the whole school turned out en masse to all the games, song and yell leaders kept the team on edge, service clubs cooperated heartily, all in all, it was 3 banner year for the Red and Gold, CAPTAINS-JACKSON, FOOTBALL, DAVIS, BASKETBALL, Esports Perhaps as no other activity in SAGERHORN, BASKETBALLQ GEBHARD, TRACKQ SYLVESTER, ' BASEBALL, HEALD, WRESTLINGQ LEWIS, cnoss COUNTRYQ Wilson give an opportunity for unifying, HINCHMAN, TENNIS, WHITE, GOLF crystallizing and building up that' fine in- tangible something known as Wilson Spirit. 1IMan likes a contest, a fight and element of chance-but forgetting these, nothing so welds a student body into a great dynamo of spirit, action, ideals-like a football game. fISports give every one in the institution a chance to prove his loyalty in ways ad infinitum. Sport mentors, sterling athletes, and all-American teams are unanimous in declaring that teams must have backing of a rousing, flashing grand- stand to carry the ball over. 1IFootball history is one chronicle of crucial moments, six inch lines, last stands, that have been saved by the concentrated rooting of loyal bleachers.

OACHING STAFF-A highly efficient coaching staff has in the course of Wilson High's two short years of activity placed the Golden Bear sports on a par with the best in the Southland. 1IOak Smith, varsity football and track, and middle- weight basketball mentor, has developed an unusually fine lot of athletes. His powerful 1927 football team defeated the cream of Southern California talent and barely missed the cham- pionship by the margin of a tie game. 11111 handling the reins of varsity basketball and baseball, Fred Frazer has organized teams that have yet to end lower than third place in Bay League competition. QU-larry Coleman, while dividing his time between orthopedic work and coaching, has produced a lightweight basketball team that has scaled the heights-the Southern California Championship. Qln passing out bouquets, Clifford Wright comes in for his share with a second place in the Southern California wrestling finals last year and a prospective championship team as we go to press, as his offerings. QIRygel Farrand has proved his worth in dealing with the young fellows. Outstanding in his work has been the 1928 class D basketball team that played up to the final encounter before losing the Bay League Championship. QIWayne Merrill, chemistry teacher, in the role of tennis coach has been not a little responsible for the fine showing made at Wilson in that sport this year. QBert Smith, head of the department, has had a friendly word and a helping hand for all.

ARSITY FOOTBALL-Playing a typical early season brand of ball with rag- gedness predominating, the Wilson varsity ended a practice tilt with Anahiem in a 6-6 deadlock, however, an improved team next met the Fairfax High crew and sent the Angelenos home under a smarting 13-0 setback. Al Mutter was the big noise with his terrific smashes and bruising defensive work. lICoach Oak Smith's Bruins opened their second Bay League campaign with an auspicious win over the powerful Huntington Park eleven. After trailing 9-0 at the end of the first chapter, the last half found the Smithmen waging a slashing attack and brilliant defense that netted two touchdowns, while the Parksters were being held scoreless. Henry Davis, great fighting throughout staved off what in the first half seemed a rout for the invaders. QA soggy tanbark which caused many fumbles and slowed down the Wilson backfield, that depended more upon speed than power, tells the whole story of a heart-breaking 0-0 tie with the Redondo Sea Hawks. The only bright spot of the game was in the closing minutes when Les Gebharcl and AI Mutter launched an attack that ended on the Redondo four-yard stripe as the gun sounded. QIA fighting, well- coordinated Bruin eleven came back against Venice and served notice on the Bay League that it had arrived among the elect. Launching a brilliant aerial game in the opening half, Dalt Mobley flipped two passes to Jimmy Walker and Stan Hill that accounted for as many CAMDANILE 1928 VARSITY LETTERIVIEN-FIRST ROW!

A1 Mutter crashed over for the third score to bring the figures to 18-0. QWhen the Wilson Bear horde and the San Pedro Pirates mixed, the former walked off with the booty, I9-6. Les Gebhard chalked up two of his mates' touchdowns on long runs around the port and starboard sides of the Buccaneers, line. QIUnder cloudy skies, over a muddy field, and throughout the Inglewood line the Wilson backs ripped and slashed their way to two touchdowns and a safety, and when the many spectators swarmed off Stephens Field to drier places, the figures on the tally sheet stood out boldly: Wilson, 143 Inglewood, O. Emery Godard played a great game at halfback, while Jack Walton and A1 Mutter starred on the defense. Dalt Mobleyis cultured toe played a stellar role in the rout by his long range booting, QIBringing a highly reputed line and potent backfield to Stephens Field with the record of having only one touchdown scored on them in two seasons, the Samohi Vikings tasted a stinging 14-O defeat at the hands of Oak Smith's grid warriors. The largest crowd ever as- sembled on Stephens Field went home satisfied that all the nice things said about the Smith- men were amply justified. The outstanding feature of the day was the Golden Bears' glorious stand on the six inch line. In the third canto Samohi had worked the ball to the three- yard line and had four downs in which to score. The first play placed the ball on the six inch linef' where it remained for three consecutive downs due to the efforts of the keyed-up Wilson defense. lIChampionship curtains were rung on the Wilson I-Iigh eleven when their well-educated offense failed to function, and the fourth place Compton Lions won 20-0. f I r l! eAMDANlL,ii 1928 XJ MIDDLEWEIGHT FOOTBALL SQUAD-FRONT ROW: HARRIS, DAVIS, BROWN, ISENBERGER, SMITH, CAPTAIN STEW- ART, MURRAY, ALEXANDER, Mc LANE, WATSON, HOAGLAND, FITZER.

IDDLEWEIGHT FOOTBALL SQUAD-Stubbornly grinding their way into the spot light of Woodrow Wilson athletics, Coach Harry Colemanis Class B footballers brought to a close a semi-successful season. With two complete back- fields being injected into the fray at critical moments, a stubborn line, unequaled in defensive play when at its best, and a capable list of replacements, the Bruin team was never known as a loser in Bay League standings. fI:Starting a backfield of brawn and substituting a fast, light quartette, Coach Coleman managed to keep his team right at the heels of the leaders at all times. The first backfield to start the fracas consisted of Kid Johnson, Chuck Braswell, Red Westwood, and Paul Maull. A sturdy plunging power was much in evidence here with Maull at fullback leading the entire aggregation at line smashing and scoring. In an open field the backfield of Jimmy Munholland, Chet Shelley, Floyd Davis, and Henry Myers starred with their long end runs. Shelley and Munholland especially turned in some of the longest gallops of the season, one of Shelleyis being good for 80 yards. QI Eggs,' McLane, Morrie Watson, and Howard Brown performed in spectacular fashion at ends and turned in some of the classiest playing of the season. Lloyd Alexander and Franklin Isenberger bore the brunt of the attack at tackle positions, while Captain Bubbles Stewart, Vincent Murray, and Harris Smith forming a bulwark of strength at the apex of the line were in every play. 928 CAMDANILE J ,,,, J' ,,,,,3 5,3 7.1 ,, LIGHTWEIGHT FOOTBALL SQUAD-FRONT ROWZ ANDREWS, SLATER, ZAHN, WARE, JACKSON, HILLIARD, GIBBONEY.

IGHTWEIGHT FOOTBALL SQUAD-Although unable to turn in a single vic- tory during league play, Coach Rygel Farrandls Class C eleven won a place for them- selves in Wilson's hall of fame by their stubborn fight and undying grit against teams that were very nearly twice their size and weight. Outweighed but never outfought, the mid- get players handled themselves in a manner that spoke well of the training and efforts of their coach. QIWith Captain Weenie l-locking starring in every game the Bruins managed to come so close to victory that their opponents were ever in fear. l-locking at quarter was the constant threat of the game, for small and wiry as he is, his line smashing was a revelation in itself. lIAbly assisted by the flying feet of Bill Woodard at half, Hocking ran the team in a businesslilce manner, always seeming to diagnose the right play at the right time. Cecil Martin at full was the defensive foundation of the entire team, and his vicious line plunging certainly deserves recognition. Sol Deeble and Palmer Stone took care of the other half-back position in great style, while Grant Scott was substituted freely at any of the baclcfield po- sitions. Qwith Myron Andrews and Lawrence Gibboney at ends the flanking positions were well guarded. Jack Proctor, Slim Slater, and Bud Turner were stationed at the tackle positions, with Slater turning in the most consistent and deadly playing. The center of the line was well supplied with material with Richie Ware, Ed Ingle, Bill Hilliard, Malouf Zahn, and Ed Losch officiating in defending the Wilson goal in a most consistent fashion.

DAVIS, OLIVER, MATTHEWS, BLACK, CAPTAIN LEWIS, COACH OAK SMITH. ROSS COUNTRY SQUAD-Soon after the fall term opened Coach Oak Smith called a meeting of all prospective middle and distance men. At this meeting the first cross-country team in the Bay League was formed. William Black was appointed manager. Don Lewis was unanimously elected captain. QIOfficial training began directly after this, but since this sport had not as yet been recognized in Bay League circles, it was the middle of December before a meet could be scheduled. Qfln lieu of this, the team held exhibition meets during the football games. A handicap race was run at the Venice game over a two and three-fifths mile course. Roy Walker won the handicap, and Captain Lewis and Bill Davis were first and second in regard to time. At the Samohi game, the race was won by Bill Davis, with Lewis and Black taking second and third. IIAt the Los Angeles Breakfast Club's annual Southern California A. A. U. championship meet, the Bears placed seventh. Davis, Black, Lewis, I-Ioldeman, Oliver, and Matthews were the leaders of the team. IX INCH LINE-The supreme moment for Wilson was the Hsix inch line when we held Santa Monica before 3000, minutes like those run into years, they test men. Stu- dents fifty years hence will be urged on, shown the picture of that squad in this Campanile, write their names in gold for that famous stand. 1IRah! IIRahl Some of the squad, bent, crippled, bespectacled will appear in assembly and tell budding Bruins how it was all done. And-when the crowd moved out-when those cars unparked, there were miles of Wilson smiles-there were Wilson chuckles-yes a million chuckles. It was Woodrow Wilsonis day. nmnwmwmmmm Ai 7 r CAMDANILE 928 VARSITY BASKETBALL SQUAD-FRONT ROW! BUTLER, CAPTAIN SAGERHORN, CAPTAIN DAVIS, MOBLEY, SOEBERG. SECOND ROW! BLAINE, ASS,T MGR., GORDON, HEWITT, JACKSON, ABRIGHT, HILL, IVIONK, MGR., COACH FRAZER. ARSITY BASKETBALL-Performing with an unstoppable offense and an air- tight defense, Coach Fred Frazerys varsity basketball five brought to a close the most successful season imaginable for an infant school in only its second year. Battling from start to finish of every game, the Wilson quintet went through the season with nine straight victories only to lose the championship to Santa Monica fwho incidentally played through the Southern California Prep finals and defeated Polytechnic High in the final gamej in one of the most heart-breaking games played by any team during the season, because of a last half slump, that unexplainable bane of all sports. fIDeveloping one of the most bril- liant scoring aces of the year, Coach Frazer rang up a real surprise in uncovering the sensa- tional Mike Sagerhorn, who when in scoring range absolutely cornered the basket market. Averaging 13 points a game during league play only, Sagerhorn took Bay League high scoring honors with a grand total of 78 points. Bill Soeberg proved himself a worthy running mate of the flashy Sagerhorn by bearing the brunt of the offense in the last two games. 1IThe loss of Dalton Mobley and Henry Davis at mid-year was a great blow to the championship hopes of the team, for it broke up that sensational scoring triumvirate, Davis to Mobley to Sager- horn. Butler at guard and Tommy Young at forward did much to fill the shoes of Mobley and Davis, but it was indeed a heart-breaking task. Captain Henry Davis at guard was at all times the star floor player of the team. His lightning dribbling, accurate passing, and dead- eye shots were always a thorn in the opponents' side. Ralph Jackson and Ben Butler were 928 CAMDANILE dependable at all times, feeding the forwards with that consistency that does much to win basketball games. With the ever-dependable Stan Hill at center, the majority of the tip-offs went to Wilson, giving the Bears the jump on the opposing team at all angles of the game. lIWirh three practice games under their belts, the Wilson crew upset Venice in the first league tangle to the tune of 31-6. Being absolutely unable to get past the Wilson defense cost the Venitians the game, while the Wilson offense with Mike Sagerhorn officiating with 17 points was working with clock-work precision. Davis, Mobley, Hill, and Jackson all came in for their share of the glory by their perfect feeding of the shifty Sagerhorn. IIWith Mike Sagerhorn and Captain Hank Davis sinking shots from all angles of the floor, Wilson dedicated Huntington Park's new gym by defeating them 29-21. Sagerhorn dropped 13 points through the basket, while Davis managed to net four field goals from his guard position. QIDominating the play at all times, the Wilson crew with Davis at the helm sank the rugged Redondo Sea-Hawks under a barrage of baskets, the final score being 26-14. Dalt Mobley took high scoring honors by sinking five field goals and a foul shot for 11 points, with Sagerhorn crowding him closely with 10 points. Ralph Jackson, Bill Soeberg, and Stan Hill furnished the crowd with plenty of thrills by their spectacular floor work and passing. lIWirh Captain Hank Davis and Dalt Mobley playing their last game in the Red and Gold uniform, the Inglewood Sentinels were thrashed by a 39-16 count leaving the Bears in a tie for first place with Santa Monica, In finishing their prep careers Mobley and Davis turned in great floor games as well as accounting for 14 points between them. Sagerhorn in sinking 16 points for his usual high scoring honors, now has an average of 14 points per game. CAMDANIL 1928 IIWinning their fifth game in League play, the San Pedro Pirates were downed by a 26-10 score. With Bill Soeberg and Stan Hill feeding him, Sagerhorn netted 13 poznts to keep up his 14 point per game average. Ben Butler and Morrie Harper playing their first game for the Bruins were steady and dependable at all times and fitted nicely into the places vacated by Davis and Mobley. IICompletely stopping Wilson's great scoring threat, Mike Sager- horn, the Santa Monica five performed the impossible by sending the Bruins down to defeat in a game replete with strong defensive play. While stopping Sagerhorn with only 2 points, the Viking defense made the mistake of letting Soeberg loose and he retaliated by dropping four field goals and a foul shot through the hoop for 9 points before the Samohi defense tightened around him too. Holding a lead of 9-2 at the half, the Bruins were unable to stem the desperate rally launched by the Samohi crew in the last period and a long heave from the middle of the floor by Tony Jurich cinched the game for the Vikings. 1IDumping the Compton Lions 29-17 in the last game the Bruins went into a tie for first place with Santa Monica due to their defeat at the hands of Redondo, but Samohi still retained the moral championship because of their win over Wilson. With Bill Soeberg sinking 13 points and Sagerhorn dropping in 7, the Compton five were completely out classed from start to finish. Ralph Jackson at guard completed his athletic career in Wilson in a blaze of glory with his superlative defense tactics, while also taking enough time to drop two long distance shots through the hoop. Barnes and Yancy, the Compton threats, were completely smothered by the classy guarding of Butler and Jackson at all stages of the game. fflsosing only Ralph Jackson, the Wilson Bears are favored to walk off with the league hunting next year. m - f 1928 ANILE 1 'F I .

LASS B BASKETBALL-Fighting with the same spirit that personified their big brothers on the varsity, Oak Smith's Class B basketeers finished league play with a percent of .425 to their credit. Hit hard by the loss of Tommy Young, scoring ace of the team, at mid-year when he was graduated to varsity competition, the Bruin quintet battled on, losing heart-breaking games by the closest of scores. 1ITom Young, shooting from a forward position, was the highlight of the B's offense, ringing up 29 field goals and 8 foul shots for a grand total of 66 points. Paired with the starring Young at forward, Cap- tain Jimmy Munholland turned in some of the most sensational play of the season besides finding time to drop some 39 counters through the hoop. Bearing the burden of offensive work on his shoulders after the departure of Young, Chet Shelley with '53 points basketed during the season, played a most consistent game at center at all times. With Howard Brown Kid Johnson, and Chuck Glasgow taking care of the guard positions, the home basket was well taken care of by some classy defensive playing. 1IOpening League play Venice and Huntington Park fell victims to the vicious onslaught turned loose by the Bruin five, oing down to defeat by the scores of 24-15, and 17-14. Falling prey to old man overconfitince, successive defeats were registered by the Redondo Seahawks and the elongated Inglewood Sentinels, but regaining their stride once more the middles turned and swatted Pedro 22-14. 1ISamohi took the Bears' measure 21-17, and the Compton Lions checked the Bruins 22-12. i 'if- ff 1 -1 VA., :1M.M., . , QAMDAN I . 28 CLASS C BASKETBALL SQUAD'-FRONT ROWZ SCOTT, DEEBLE, WARE, LEACOCK, INGLE, PROCTOR.

LASS C BASKETBALL-In practically the same predicament as that which faced the B team, Cdach Rygel Farrand's Class C dribblers ended the season with the same standing as that also officially credited to the above mentioned Smith trained five. Losing Sol Deeble, who up to that time had been running wild in his basket making, the C's were forced to shift their lineup in mid-season without a minutels notice. lllvan Leacock, flashy little forward with 29 points to his credit was high point man for the season. Although ineligibility lost him the chance of participating in the last three games, Sol Deeble at the otherforward post grabbed second place with 28 points. Richy Ware at cen- ter was a pillar of strength on defense and also contributed to the scoring column. With Captain Myron Andrews and Bob Hilliard at guards, the score sheet never gave evidence of an overwhelming score one their opponents' part. lIThe C's started league play with a vengeance, dumping Venice 19-13, only to have Huntington Parkls lanky five swamp them under a barrage of baskets 27-6 in the next encounter. Again the lighties came back and veneered the heavy Redondo five 8-7. The loss of Deeble at this time hir the C's hard and Inglewood, Pedro, and Santa Monica all took their measure by the scores:-13-7, 16-14, 14-13. With their fighting spirit now aroused, the Baby Bruins rose up and smote Compton 14-13, in the final and most sensational game of the season. These basket tossers are all in the Sophomore ranks and have two more seasons to take on energy, form, brawn, and loyalty. They will be a power to be reckoned with in Bay League circles in the next few years. L CLASS D BASKETBALL SQUAD-FRONT ROW! ARMSTRONG, MOSKO, MARTISON, CAPTAIN CASNER. SECOND ROW!

LASS D BASKETBALL-With every man on the team battling with a steady per- sistency that could not be denied, the Class D basketeers followed in the varsity's footprints by coming within an ace of winning the championship of their league. With junior Martison, that little half-pint of athletic energy, sinking baskets from all angles of the floor, the D's were always dangerous contenders up to the very last second of play. fIBasketing 26 field goals and 6 fouls, Martison, flashy midget forward, ran up 58 points to be high point man of his team. His unerring eye and his all-round playing made him a nightmare to all the other teams. Captain Ajay', Casner lead the D's from the other for- ward post, and proved himself of the most value as a defensivelrather than as an offensive star. The center position was left in the capable hands of Lawrence Gibboney, who netted 27 points against league teams. Classed as the best in the league by all who saw them play, Aarow Mosko and Bob Farrow made it practically impossible for a team to penetrate the Wilson defense. 1IUnder cover of a veritable barrage of baskets, the midget five shoved Venice and Huntington Park aside with the score of 12-3 and 14-9, respectively. Up against a team that made up in inches what they lacked in skill, the D's met their first defeat at the hands or Redondo, 8-7. Spurred on to superhuman efforts, the smaller replicas of the varsity knocked over Inglewood, Pedro and Samohi, with the following scores respectively: 13-7, 18-14, and 23-15. In the last named game, Junior Martison ran wild in the scoring column scoring 17 points.

RESTLING-Wrestling made its second debut on the Wilson sport calendar by turning out the strongest prep team in Southern California. Of the six teams that met, not one was strong enough to even come near upsetting the powerful Bruin squad. lIThe season opened with Wilson,s cyclone attack brushing Fullerton aside 33 to 0. Following their first triumph, they took the measure of Alhambra, and handed them a 23 to 10 defeat. Pasadena fared no better and took a 21 to 10 trimming at the hands of Wilson. Wilson secured revenge for a white washing received a year previous by walloping Whittier 17 to 8. The Bears' next win was taken at the expense of Glendale. This was the hardest obstacle that the Bears had to overcome, and with a crippled line-up managed to take a 16 to 15 win from the Dynamiters. 1ITo climax a most successful season, Wfilson went to San Diego to defeat the Coast League Champions. This defeat was accomplished, and Wilson took the powerful hilltop crew into camp 12 to 9. This left Wilson as the only undefeated team in the running. Gln the Southern California meet held at Pasadena to decide the individual championships, Captain Dick I-Ieald walked off with first place in the 158 pound division. Stan Morgan, Wilson1s 118 pound grappler, also worked his way into the finals to capture a second place. QThe other Wilson stars that Coach Wright selected for his team were Charles Kummer, Virgil Saddler, Harry Tanton, Ivan Bowman, George Haruff, Bob Guthro, and Wienheimer. Wilson's splendid success can be attributed to Coach Clifford Wright, who has been moulding the 1928 team for two years with just this goal as his objective. 928 CAM 'A 'ILE gigs . f: , .-1 ,,i.77s7,f,.,1.7.--7mi.t, 7,, -i .,..,,?,,,7,Q,5,m.?7 .f ,,,g,,M,,,g.7.,,..,,gt7,, fs 3+ -' - El -' ' 7 sizes.,-stef-71577 ffQ7Ksw7-s we-fffarsfeagsr.-'Sf-ww 7- r9EE'fFFgKf ff -' Kfajfweififz vfre Qiesgitfffifszifegfs-'?5fsi7'fHfPMY1:v1 -M573 ,-rs-rw. .

ARSITY TRACK-Wilson's track team under Coach Oak Smith's guidance had a successful year and completed the season by taking fifth in the Bay League track meet held at Huntington Park. 1IThe tracksters opened the season at the Orange Show relay races. Of the four teams entered, a team composed of Gebhard, McFadden, Ziesenhenne, and Lewis placed fourth. QIThe final dual meet of the year was held at Comp- ton. the Lions nosed out the Bears by one point. Lewis and McFadden were the only men to win their events. 1IThe following week the Bears traveled to Venice and wrote Victory', in crimson and gold by taking eight first places out of a possible twelve. They massed a total of 57 points to the Venitians' 47 to win the first track meet since the institution opened. Captain Gebhard won the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard dashg Forbes turned in a double win, while Lewis, Ziesenhenne, Davis, and McFadden won their events. IIInglewood's strong team gave the locals a set-back in a triangular meet in which Redondo was the third contestant. Lewis, Forbes, and McFadden were the only men to win their events. 1IHun- tington Park, the Bay League Champions, also defeated the Bear aggregation in a triangular meet between Wilson, Redondo, and Huntington Park. Forbes was the only man to hang up a first place for the Bruins. fIIn the Bay League Meet, Forbes was the outstanding per- former of the day. He broke the record in the shot with a heave of 48 feet 10 inches, as well as setting a new Bay League record in the discus with a long toss of 128 feet. f it I CAMDAN LE 928 CLASS C TRACK SQUAD-COACH OAK SMITH, GARCIA, SMITH, HOCKING, CLARK, WILLEY, MUTTER, ASS,T MANAGER STEADINIAN.

QIGene Weenie Hocking and Harold '4Tennie', Clark together were the outstanding leaders of the squad. Together they averaged a dozen points in the Bay League Competition. Gene Hocking took third place at the Bay League finals and competed in the Southern California track finals. 1IAt the Southern California me et Hocking copped second place in his heat, but in the finals he was shut out of a place. Qjoe Garcia, Sterling Smith, Gene Hocking, Harold Clark, A1 Bennett, Willey, and Tigner made up the squad. ESUME-There have been many bright spots in Wilson sports during the past sea- son. First, Oak Smith's grid eleven rode on the crest of a victori final game, that was lost to Compton, and the Bay League cham tington Park.

ASEBALL-As we go to press, Coach Fred Frazer's horsehide nine has won one of the first six Bay League tilts. The team started out in a very unimpressive fashion at the beginning of the season, but after dropping the first three league affairs the team began to play winning ball. Although the Bears have been eliminated from any pos- sibility of placing among the first three, if the present gait is continued, the team will be several steps above the Bay League cellar. The locals fared very well in winning the majority of the early season practice affairs. lIThe Bears were indeed unfortunate in the draw for schedule in Bay League baseball play this year. The plan of play called for the locals to meet the league's two most powerful teams, San Pedro and Santa Monica, in the first two tilts. After dropping these two decisions by loose scores, the Compton Lions scored an unexpected 12 to 4 victory over the Wilson outfit. Venice was the first league opponent to lose, while Redondo handed the Bears a beating. Huntington Park Spartans clubbed out a 13 to 3 victory. Sylvester captained from third base. Stan Hill, veteran, served on the mound most of the time and was usually relieved by Hubert Trippe. Blaine did good work behind the bat. The infield lineup follows: Russell, first, Reed, second, Captain Sylvester, third, White, short- stop. Godard, Soeberg, Garling, and Meyer worked the outfield. Herbert Timm man- aged the team and Charles Glasgow acted in the capacity of assistant manager. Ijflzollowing is the seasonls score to date: San Pedro 6, Wilson 1, Santa Monica 8, Wilson 0, Compton 12, Wilson 4, Venice 11, Wilson 12, Huntington Park 13, Wilson 4, Redondo 10, Wilson 1. CAMIDAN LE 1928 GOLF TEANI1IVIANAGER BLAINE, SYLVESTER, CHASE, CAPTAIN WHITE, STEVENSON, JACKSON. OLP-Golf came to Wilson as an experiment, but after a few matches were played and the golfers qualified for ranking, the dubious ones were convinced that Wilson really had a golf team. The team started out by taking all the practice matches available including a deadlock with the strong Glendale team, last yearis Southern California Champions. 1IThey then competed in the league matches and were beaten only by the powerful Fullerton team in a close match at Long Beach Country Club. Their showing in this strong league demonstrated the fact that golf had a place in Woodrow Wilson sports. QILast year saw the formation of Wilson's first golf team. They were unable to get in a league, so they played few matches. This year the team, aided by the return of three letter- men, landed in Southern California league number one and succeeded in downing Whittier, Huntington Beach, Poly, and Santa Ana, only to be beaten by the league winner, Fullerton. 1IRonald White was elected Captain and played a consistent third man. Paul Sylvester led the greensmen as first man and Jay Chase, Ronald White, and Jim Stevenson followed in second, third and fourth rankings respectively. This quartette went the rounds in the seventies consistently, and each one had his share of being low man. Art Buell and Ralph Jackson alternated as fifth man and both played good games to complete the team. Eddie Blaine managed the mashie wielders and Byron Scott acted as faculty adviser. ffThe team played its matches at Long Beach Country Club and Virginia Country Club, and secured the Muni- cipal Course for practice. Their only defeat came in the crucial league match with Fullerton, the team that had to shoot perfect figures to defeat the Bears in their onward plunge. 1 928 CAMTDANIL TENNIS TEAM-COACH MERRILL, CAPTAIN HINCHMAN, JAEGER, MC CUTCHEON, HUTTON, MATHEWS, HUL- BERT, MANAGER DOWNER. ENNIS-The Wilson varsity tennis team has to date rung up six victories out of nine starts, and is certain of placing in the division of the Bay League, one of the strongest tennis leagues in Southern California. lIThis year7s squad has engaged in sixty practice matches, while last year only one practice session was played in preparation for league competition. Two members of the team were sent to the annual Dudley Cup tourna- ment, held at Santa Monica in April. 1IWayne Merrill, newly appointed tennis coach, has helped and guided the team throughout the season. These factors have all contributed to the team's tremendous improvement over last year. QIDuring the practice season the Bears defeated the Compton C., Santa Ana, Orange, and Anahiem High, as well as the strong cadet team from Harvard Military Academy at Los Angeles. The only reverse suffered by our netmen was the 12-5 defeat at the hands of Glendale C. In the initial leagues, San Pedro and Santa Monica thrust the Bruins into the cellar with Venice and Redondo, but it is expected that the final standing will credit at least four victories to Wilson. IICaptain Roger Hinchman and George McCutcheon have displayed a high brand of tennis at the first and second singles positions, while the doubles berths have been ably filled by Chuck Gordon, Tom Mathews, Harlan Hulbert, Bill Jaeger, and Homer Hutton. Captain Hinch- man, Chuck Gordon, and Bill Jaeger will be lost to the team next year due to graduation. We are indebted to them for the organization and entry into the Bay League of a tennis team worthily representing Wilson High, and we wish to extend our appreciation. McCutcheon, Hutton, and Mathews will be the only returning lettermen. Roswell Downer was manager. CAMDTNILE mn I l 1928 CAMDANILE CAMIDAN LE 928 IRLS' ATHLETICS-The Girls' Athletic Association, fully organ- ized and with a year of experience behind it, launched enthusiastically into its second year's activities simultaneously with the opening of school. fl-The club spon- sors all after school games and activities as well as the athletic clubs, Tennis, Outing, and W,,' after school practice for inter- class competition and enthusiasm through- out the year. QIAssociate members become active in the G. A. A. when 200 points or an emblem has been earned in the after school activities. This yearis roll included a total of one hundred members, seventy of whom were active. QIThe Girls' Athletic Association does not confine its activities to athletics alone, but endeavors to develop the all round girl. Social activities and service have a prominent place among their activities. lIOne of the big events directed by the G. A. A. was the Annual Spanish Fiesta for which the President of the Asso- ciation had been appointed general chair- man by the Girls' League. This gala day when Wilson students as dons and senoritas strolled in our patio among the booths, decked gaily with festive colors and gor- geous with the odors of Spanish food, was most successful. 1IOther instances in which they have served Wilson this year have been their staunch cooperation with the Girls' League in their Thanksgiving Drive for which they launched a Potato Drive,', and in the Girls' League Cabin Drive. 1IThe association was invited to two play- days, which they attended, one at Alhambra ROSE WAITE, XVINIFRED COLE, VIVIAN SOLACE, ARTICE COUCH, ONALEE REPP, AMY BRIFFETT, MARJORIE SAN- DERSON, MISS RUTH STONEBARGER. and one at Pasadena. fIThe Association belongs to the Girls, Athletic Federation of Southern California, and sent representatives to its semi-annual conventions at Glendale and Long Beach Poly High Schools. They were elected members at large on the executive board of this organization for the Glendale convention. QOfficers of the association are Rose Waite, President, Winifred Cole, Vice-President, Vivian Solace, Recording Secretary, Onalee Repp, Secretary-Treasurer, and Miss Ruth Stonebarger, Faculty Adviser. Presidents of Clubs were Artice Couch, WH Club, Amy Briffett, Tennis Club, and Marjorie Sanderson, Outing. w 918 CAMDANILE HE C'W CLUB-The W'7 Club, which is an organization of girls who have earned the minor of major athletic W,?, has for its motto Service,', and by their many acts of service they have lived up to their well-chosen motto this year. HThe minor XV is won with the earning of 500 points, the major with the earning of an additional 500, or 1000 points in all. Points are earned by after school athletic activities. Members of class teams are entitled to 100 points by their point system. To insure varied and all around activity, a number of points must be won in service and athletic club activities. lIThe club sweaters, which were offered at the beginning of the year, upon which they wear their red and yellow felt W,s, are white with tiny yellow stripe trim at the neck and sleeves. lIAwards were made twice this year, at the end of the first semester at an impressive assembly, and again at the close of the year at their annual VV banquet. A reception and initiation welcomed the newcomers each time. lIThe W,' girls rendered their services by decorating for Boys' Ath- letic banquets and supported Boys, Athletics in various other ways. The President represents the club in Girls' League work, where they also co-operated. 1IThe officers of the club who were reelectecl at the mid-semester election are Artice Couch, President, Mabel Pettes, Vice- Presidentg Betty Drummond, Secretary, and Mrs. Sergel, Faculty Adviser. 1IMembers of the Club in the picture from left to right are: Colette McGuigan, Nona Acton, Joyce Aston, Eloise Pickrell.

IIMany other girls are wearing liW's and stars since the beautiful VV banquet near the close of school. CAMDAN I Llf 928 UTING CLUB-The Outing Club, whose manifold activities are perhaps as varied and educational as those of any other club in school, is an organization of girls interested in outdoor life and the many beautiful and interesting things in the world of nature. 1ITo qualify for active membership, a minimum of twenty-five points must be earned in some line of club activity as set forth in the club's point system. Points earned in Outing Club contribute to the winning of the athletic W. IIThe club reorganized at the mid-semester under an original idea which has proved most successful. The plan is known as the Little Gypsy and Big Gypsy tests. Each test is a project for one of their expeditions or hikes which is taken regularly every two weeks. The Little Gypsy test includes the following projects which are passed in the order given: Nature Craft, Camper Craft, First Aid, Ath- letics, Handicraft, Cookery, and Story Telling. 1lEvery project taken up is enormous in its possibilities for exploration and interest. Nature Craft alone includes the study of wild birds, wild flowers, trees, marine animals, rocks, butterflies, and all the other many interesting things found in nature's big, mysterious outdoors. Trips ro the open fields, mountains, and seashore make the study of nature real and genuine, and the lectures that follow or accom- pany their explorations into the secrets of nature, give them lasting and useful scientific knowledge. IIBesides the regular short hikes, week-end trips are frequently taken which provide the chance to put their knowledge of Camp Craft, Cookery, and other arts into prac- tical use. Golf was also included in the Outing Clubls activities this year. 1IThe officers are Marjorie Sanderson, President, Kee-Wee-Tah Webster, Vice-Presidentg Claire Allabach, Sec- retary, Betsy Slater, Thelma Burns, I-like Leaders, and Miss Stonebarger, Faculty Adviser. 1928 CAMIDAN LE ENNIS CLUB-The Tennis Club is an organization which seeks to promote interest in after school tennis among the girls. A series of elimination and ladder tournaments served to hold the interest of the girl netters by furnishing keen competition through- out the year. flwilson won the tennis doubles from Pasadena at the Alhambra Play Day. Ramona Simonson and Alva Shaw wielded the winning rackets for Vlilson. Hlt is apparent that the girl tennis players also enjoy skating as they held two skating parties during the year at the Alamitos Skating Rink. A week-end outing to Silverado Glen where they visited an old deserted silver mine with numerous legends was another feature of the year's social events. IIOfficers of the Club were Amy Briffett, Presidentg Mary Long, Vice-President, Mildred McQuillen, Secretary, Alva Shaw, Manager, and Miss Davis, Faculty Adviser. PLAYDAYS-just imagine five-hundred agile girls, bubbling over with life and uncontrol- lable energy, assembled together from schools all over Southern California as the guests of one school for a day of fun and friendly rivalry. Imagine them covering a city block, in squad formation, uniformly dressed and with perfect posture, marching with military precision, or again dancing in unison with grace and rhythm in one of the old folk dances. Then again can you see them doing their best to excel in their chosen sport for the glory of their respec- tive schools, skillfully wielding tennis rackets, tossing basketballs with ease and precision, dribbling a soccer ball swiftly down the field, cleverly manipulating a hockey stick or yelling with enthusiasm in a close volley-ball game. Then imagine them refreshed with showers after the hot exhilirating games, rushing to the cafeteria to satisfy their healthy appetites and enjoy a social time together. This explains why playdays are red letter days to Wilson High girls. CAMDAN LE 1928 OLLEY-BALL-Volley-ball took up the first two weeks of this year,s athletic ac- tivities. The all star Juniors began their meteoric capture of the class championships by copping the volley-ball championship at the beginning of the year. 1IThe Senior- Junior games resulted in 6-15 and 13-15 scores, giving the victory to the Juniors 2-0. The Juniors defeated the Sophomores in their first school game, with a 17-3 and 15-2 point scores, giving them another 2-0 game score and the class championship. 1IAlthough the volley-ball season was short, it started athletic activities out with good spirit and enthusiasm which marked the whole year. Qlffhe juniors owe much to Mrs. Ada Sergel, junior coach, for their string of championships. With keen foresight, and encouraging words, Mrs. Sergel led her teams through efficient practices on to a record number of class championships. Mrs. Sergel, who is regularly engaged as Orthopedic Instructor in the Girls, Physical Educa- tion Department is a graduate of University of California and served as Supervisor of the Orthopedic Hospital School in Los Angeles.. Mrs. Sergel coached juniors in all sports. 1IThe Sophomore lineup, back row beginning center from left to right, Alva Shaw, Mae Crowther, Eloise Mussetter, Glenda Gallegher, Captain, Kee-We-Tah Webster, Roberta Sturdy, Maxine Stern, and Ava Besse, Manager.

Rah! 928 CAMDANIL w ASKETBALL-Basketball season opened with a combination Halloweien Masquerade party and Basketball Rally. A sham basketball game, played by a team of clowns who used ladders, chairs, and butterfly nets as tools, was one of the features of the rally for the occasion, while the games and stunts included both the Halloweien and basket- ball ideas. 1IThe remarkable teamwork of the accurate Junior basketball team carried them through the season to their second class championship. 1IThe Seniors played an even game with the Juniors up to the last half when their defense weakened and they were finally de- feated with a 22-15 loss. The winning Junior team next defeated the Sophomores with an easy 28-13 win, capturing the basketball championship title. Hrfhe Senior Class was very fortunate this year in having Miss Ruth Stonebarger, who is also adviser of the Girls, Athletic Association and Outing Club and who teaches the Leaders' Gym Class, as their coach in the five sports. Miss Stonebarger is credited with innumerable original ideas and unlimited energy in putting them over as was shown when she led seven-hundred girls through cabins, logs, tags, and speeches in the biggest drive ever staged at Wilson. IIThe Sophomores, back row, from left to right, Virginia Cole, Captain, Eloise Mussetter, Eleanor Cunningham, I-lelenne Degman, Ada Osborne, Margaret Hutchinson, Martha Chambers, Edna Rubien, Manager, and Frances Shennon.

CAMDANILE 1928 OCKEY-Hockey playoff scores continued to show the Junior Class superior, al- though the Senior-Junior game ended in a tie, each team scoring in the hard- fought game only one, lone point. 1IThe juniors, however, defeated the Sopho- mores with a flashy 3-O win against the less conspicuous win of 2-1 made by the Seniors and won the title. The Hockey Rally started the season off with a bang, featuring 'fhockey when mother was a girl. The Senior girls dressed in busrles, hoop skirts, and other ancient finery struggled futilely against the agile and unhampered Juniors to the cheers of amused rooters. QIThe splendid turf field which was in excellent condition this year was a strong attraction for hockey players. llMiss Margaretta Reagan as Sophomore Coach stirred the Sophomores into action with her own personality, enthusiasm, and unbounded energy. flThe Sophomore lineup back row, beginning center from left to right: Glenda Gallegher, Manager, Kee-We-Tah Webster, Margaret Hutchison, Barabara Freeland, Maybelle Jones, Doreen Baverstock, Polly Mattison, Edna Rubien, Frances Cramer, Lucille Nelson, Nannette Smith, Eloise Mussetter, Captain, Mae Crowther, and Frances Shennon. lIThe Senior, hockey team, back row from left to right, includes Vivian Solace, Manager, Colette McGui- gan, Nona Acton, Claire Allabach, Arlene Shimer, Mabel Pettes, Eloise Pickrell, Artice Couch, Captain, Anne Drummond, Erna Schweitzer, Helen Jewell, Audene Hutchison, and Rose Waite. IIThe members of the Junior hockey championship team are in the foreground, back row, from left to right, Katherine Scott, Mildred McQuillin, Betsy Slater, Amy Briffett, Manager, Laura Price, Mary Long, front row from left to right, Betty Drummond, Rhea Comfort, Captain, Joyce Aston, Edith Curl, and Margaret Swope. Ifjuniorsl Rah! Rah! 928 CAMDANILE PEEDBALL-Speedball, which has the best points of basketball, football, and soccer blended into one glorious game, was introduced to Wilson girls for the first time this year, replacing the old game of soccer. IIA Speeclball Rally at which Mr. Penni- well, Supervisor of Long Beach Playgrounds, spoke on the red-bloodedl' game of speedball, opened the season, which has been one of the most enthusiastic of the year, The Sophomores alone steadily turned out approximately thirty strong two nights a week for practice. 1IAn- other notable feature in the initiation of speedball into Girls' sports was the demonstration game which the Poly High School girls played on the Wilson turf for the benefit of Wilson novices. The neighbor school had just completed its first season of speedball and did much in imparting enthusiasm for the game to Wilson. IIFor the first time all three classes started a season on an equal basis as the game was as new to Seniors as to Sophomores. 1IThe class managers were for the Seniors, Artice Couch, for Juniors, Rhea Comfort, and for Sopho- mores, Kee-We-Tah Webster. IIThe picture, which was taken previous to the choice of class teams, is of all those candidates eligible for the team at that time. IIThe Speedball championship went to the Sophomore Class team, who ushered the ball down the turf to a 14 to 12 win over the Seniors, who had previously defeated the Juniors by a 23 to 12 score. BASEBALL-The popular American sport, baseball, is also one of the most favored games of the year with the Wilson girls, but because of its late arrival as the last season of the year, it was impossible to record its interesting history, which shares honors with the great game Babe Ruth has made illustrious in the field-supremely American in sports. As we go to press, all three classes have shown a great deal of enthusiasm and keen competition.

They have staged many pageants and a long waiting list will be rewarded. 1IThey are responsible for blue and purple spots in the air, the warm waves, the Santa Anas. They have produced hymns, paeans of praise and-well-other inspired eloquence than any course in school. 1IAnother thing about them is that they can hold seventeen people and generally do, and all of them pile in front seat. QBubbles Stewart, leading the junior Play parade repeated a whole book of original poems when the water case blew out at the moment of greatest pride and he and his flaming banner took a steam treatmentgyes a cabinet bath, minus the cabinet. QU-lank, Henry the First, chose a black and stormy night while the rain fell in torrents to show coeds that Pageant Knights still lived and carried velvet coats for emergencies. 1ILoading his car with football and basketball captains and bundles of femininity he drove viciously into the mud out by the eucalyptus trees-Ah! the hero-when they struck, I-lank's dream had come true. ffAsk Ed Barrett for the wuzy story when his car coughed, wheezed, and jumped off the bluff-It's too good to tell here. IlStan's whoopee has played two leads before the spots -in a pep rally and then fired the opening gun in Campanile drive, to say nothing of the corners it has moved six blocks East when it draped itself on telephone poles, and six times it's plead guilty.

IIBaseball, unlike football, track, Webster's dictionary, or the World War, is a process of swinging a heavy club in a vain endeavor to '4ki1l a small horsehide object, then if successful to run around a square path beset with obstacles. Since the horsehide pellet has done nothing to be pelled for, and the runner is only back where he started, and after che fielders have put one out, only goes back and tries again, we consider this a loss of time. But since people will insist on having Hill, Sylvester, Reed, Blaine and other exponents entertain them it is no business of ours. llwrestling seems to be a process of twisting a representative of the specie homo sapiens into a model for pretzels. No, the stiff necks are not from wrestling.
