The 1949 Caribbean is affectionately dedicated
to Mrs. Phyllis Spencer, who has been a shining
light on the Isthmus.
It is with deepest regret that her students and
disciples say, "hasta la vista" upon her retire-
ment this year. May her future Stateside days
be topic.

Freshman Sophomore
Brawl
The Sophomore Class, for the second time in the history of Cristobal High School,
won the annual Freshman-Sophomore Brawl for two consecutive years. The class
performed this feat when they trounced the green Frosh by a score of 531/-901/2
on the opening day of school.
The scene of this yearly encounter was Strode Field. Slight rain showers at
noon made the battleground a muddy and slippery warpath. Before the contest,
the 100 Freshmen were favored to beat the 75 Tenth Graders.
The Three-Legged Race was introduced for the first time at a Brawl and
proved victorious for the Frosh. The Rail-Fights were acclaimed by the teachers,
by-standers, and coaches as being the most evenly-matched in many a year.
After the final score was announced, the possessors of the lower end of the
score had to run the gauntlet. Judges at the Brawl were Larry Horine and Izzy
Wachtel. Scoring was handled by Howard Munro, and Fred Cole was the
announcer.

The National Art Honor Society
The Caribbean Chapter of the National Art Honor Society is the
newest organization at C.H.S.. and has inducted Carolyn Tobin, Sandra
Hanmmond, Andrew Iim, and Florence Christian.
The charter was granted in May 1948. It is interesting to note that
the Caribbean Chapter is the only one of its kind on the Isthmus
and also the first chapter outside the continental United States.
To become a member, one must primarily ha\e a talent and an
interest for art. But before he can even be considered for member-
ship. a student must have at least a "C" average in all other subjects.
and a "B" or better in art. He must display ten pieces of his work
made in at least three different mediums. This "one-lman show"
must be approved by three competent judges.
The initiation of the Caribbean Chapter charter members, Lee Van
Siclen, Class of '48, and Nanc D)onaldson. Class of '49. was held at the
home of the sponsor. Miss Mary Worrell. At this beautiful candlelight
ceremony, Mr. Beck gave the invocation and Miss Worrell administered
the membership pledge. Nancy spoke on Knowledge and Appreciation,
and Lee spoke on Skill.
We hope that this new organization will further the interest in
art at C.H.S. as new members are admitted.

To become a member of the Cristobal Dramatic Club all one needs to do is express
a sincere interest in dramatics.
The officers for the year were elected at the first meeting. Officers for this
year are: President, Florence "Tookie" Christian who has held this highest office
for two consecutive years, Vice-President, Edward Allgaier, and Secretary-
Treasurer, Carolyn Tobin.
The aim and ambition of every member of the Dramatic Club is to achieve
membership in the Thespian Society. There are no special talents or requirements
to be a member of the )Dramatic Club, whereas, to le a Thespian, a pupil is re-
quired to participate in a meritorious manner in the production of plays. It is
necessary to have either a major role in a three-act play or a minor role in two or
more plays. A pupil may be eligible also for outstanding work in the production
staff of the play.
Fijt\-t ight
National Thespian Society
The National Thespian Society was organized
twenty years ago by a group of teachers who felt
that a greater impetus could be given to the study
of educational dramatics by an association of di-
rectors, teachers, and students actively interested
in high school dramatics.

CAST OF "WHAT A LIFE"
It was made clear that the honor of nmember-
ship was to be conferred upon High School
students not so much for the reason that
They met the eligibility requirements, but
more for what these students promised,
under oath, to achieve in dramatics after
they became members.

School captured its fifth consecutive Isthmian title. It was also the ninth out of
the last ten championships.
Coach Palumbo has again brought victory to C.H.S. In the five years that Mr.
Palumbo has been on the Isthmus and coached Cristobal High School, we have
won eleven games, tied three, and lost none. We have yet to lose an Inter-scholastic
game.
The outstanding backfield men of the year x\, i : Captain Larry Horine, Fred
Cole, the high scorer of the season, and Bob Gibson, passer and kicker of the squad.
Linemen who showed excellence were William Johnson and Alex Michaud.

"B League" Allstars
The Cristobal "B League" Tigers under the direction of their neIw coach, (;Gerhard E. Lust, copped the
inter-scholastic title for the first time in three years when they downed the Balboa "Puppies" in two
straight games, 18 to 0, and 26 to 7.
The "B Leaguers" took the initial game
18 to 0 at Diablo on October 23rd when
Arnold Manning scored two thirty-yard
touchdowns and Don Gegg scored the third
touchdown on a 20 yard end run. Great -
teamwork and.fighting spirit by the Tigers
gave Cristobal this jubilant victory.
Not satisfied with the first victory, the
"B Leaguers" came back and handed the
Balboa "Puppies" their second straight de- t'i
feat, thus winning the inter-scholastic title. T.*.i-
The touchdown twins-Arnold Manning .
and Don G< 'G--,IIi C more went on a scoring ",' "
spree, each scoring two touchdowns. Ruben
Garcia, place-kicking specialist, booted
through the uprights for the other two
points.
For Cristobal the whole squad was out- i*
standing as they played brilliant ball with '
Arnold Manning, Don Gegg, Pete Johnson, *
Bill Maloney, and the Captain of the squad,
Arthur "Reds" Corbett, being the big guns t V'
for Cristobal. '
Congratulations is
handed to Coach Lust
and his "B Leaguers" for
sparking our team to a
very successful football
season, and the chain-
pionship, and to the "B A
League" cheerleaders
whose pep and vitality -
r. was a great asset to the I '
( team and its victories.

OHIO BUCKEYESS"
Ending second with a five won and four lost
record was the Jerry Kane-John Davis 11. Lack-
ing in experience and weight, the "Buckeyes"
were always in the thick of the battle. This aggre-
gation was handicapped when some of their out-
standing players were transferred to the "B"
League.
U.C.L.A.
"CHAMPIONS"
Larry Horine, captain of the Varsity Squad, led his
team to the championship with a record of 6 wins, I
loss, 1 tie. The late acquisition of William Johnson
and the outstanding playing of Bob Kariger, Robert
Stern, and Gerald Daugherty were responsible for this
championship.
NOTRE DAME
Always lacking in men, Notre Dame gave their op-
ponents a run for their money. Bob Gibson did a one-
man job, as he scored almost all the points that his
team accumulated during the season. The "Fighting
Irish" finished with a record of 3 wins, 4 losses, and
I tie.
ALABAMA
Alabama had the most powerful line in the
league, but lacked that important backfield
power. Fred Cole also scored almost all the points
that his team made, and this was done by center
plunges. Leading players on the squad were:
Dorn Thomas, Alex \li hi.inl, and Izzy Wachtel.

Class History
Turn back the pages of time to the year 1945. The mighty seniors of '49 were then lowly
freshmen. Dorn Thomas presided as class president. Nancy Donaldson assisted as vice-
president, with Flossie Kane as secretary, and Sophie Papadopulos as treasurer. In spite
of the overwhelming induction into high school, this class was undaunted. A tremendous
victory was gained the first day of school. The freshmen won the Freshman-Sophomore
Brawl. With such a start how could a class go wrong? This class continued to prove their
worth by what was accredited to be the best talent assembly of the year. The theme was a
ship which pulled into harbor long enough to make a guest appearance. Also, this year
the class staged the George Washington Shag, which was declared a great success.
Leaf over a few pages to the year of 1946. Again this class won the Freshman-Sopho-
more Brawl-the first time for any class to perform such a feat two consecutive years. Dorn
Thomas was again installed as class president. His co-officers were: "Tookie" Christian,
Flossie Kane, and Jackie Whitlock. A reputation established the preceding year for talent
was upheld in a return visit of the ship. A Valentine Dance was the big feat of the year.
A few pages onward to 1947-Juniors-upperclassmen at last! This year Jackie
Whitlock assumed the position of class president. She was backed by Lila Hill, Sophie
Papadopulos, and Donald Johnson. The class gave the school a keyhole glance of their
talent with an all musical assembly. Another assembly put on was the campaign assembly
for S.A. officers for 1948. The class's pride and joy of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom
and Banquet, the theme of which was the school.
Turning to the last chapter we find "Tookie" Christian in the role of class president.
Her supporting officers were Sophie Papadopulos, Nancy Donaldson, and Arthur Corbett.
The assembly given this year was the Thanksgiving assembly. This was a representation of
the first Thanksgiving in the new world. The Christmas Dance followed with hard work,
but good results. It was formal, and held at the Washington Hotel. A floor show was the
main feature, highlighted by a sextette singing "All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front
Teeth."
This class represents fifteen states from the United States and five foreign countries.
The largest single group comes from Panama, consisting of 26. Other countries include:
France two, Costa Rica two, Cuba one, and Free State Danzig one. New York and Penn-
sylvania produced four, Illinois three, and Massachusetts with California was next in line
with two. The other states with one apiece are: Maine, Ohio, Alabama, Oregon, Minne-
sota, Colorado, North Carolina, Mississippi, Nebraska. and Maryland.
Before closing this book of memories, honorable mention is given to those sponsors
who have helped this class along its way. In the Freshman year Mr. Evancoe gave them
their start; the following year Mr. Flowers sent them further, from there Miss Liter took
over for the Junior year. Mr. Maedl, patient and smiling, has guided this year's Seniors on
the last mile of the journey through C.H.S.

Class Prophecy
S/ In the year Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-Nine I inherited a small
fortune. Now I could make mv dream come true! I would look up
all my old classmates from Cristobal High School. Class of Nine-
S teen Hundred and Forty-Nine.
Having never been to New York City I high-balled it there.
Walking up Broadway, I saw a swanky girl whom I thought I
recognized. Her back was toward me. I couldn't be bold, so I
hesitated about addressing her. The girl turned around. It was
Lila Hill. a John Powers model. After talking for a while I departed
to look further into the big citv.
Upon entering the famed Waldorf-Astoria Hotel I saw a door marked "Manager" open and I saw my old
classmate Richard Egger. We laughed at the times we gave teachers gray hairs by being tardy to our classes.
Back in my room. I settled down with a late edition of the evening paper. The sub-headlines caught my
eye first. It told of a fast-rising lawyer in Chicago winning another case. Reading further into the article I
learned that this same lawyer was the husband of Jean Dough. They had been recently married and lived on
a small estate just outside of the city.
Looking through the advertisements of exclusive dress designers. I noticed the name of Florence
Christian. A'anrc Donaldson was her head designer.
On the opposite page was a notice of the opening of a new play. "The Gay Twenties." Donald Johnson
was starred in the play. )eEldla Cotanche was co-starred. Both have brilliant careers ahead of them.
Having read every thing desirable in the newspaper. I turned on the radio. I was just in time for Bill
Stern. Instead of Bill Stern. I heard an entirely different voice. His protege. Arthur Corbett. would take over
his broadcast. Arthur had many things of interest to say to me. Among them he reported that history was
in the making. The first woman to campaign for President of the United States had hopes of being elected.
It was the Cristobal leader. Ann Newhard. Rumors were that Fred Cole would be the First Man of the country.
A possible cabinet appointment for Secretary of War was John Thomas.
Arthur next mentioned a new writer's corporation which was turning out many Broadway hits. Officers
were Eric Ducruet. and James Gracie. His closing remark was for every one to be sure to listen in on the big
fight between Olympic Champions Bob Gibson and Izzy Ifachtel the following evening.
The next program was of popular music. It featured the Dorn Thomas orchestra. He could now hit an
"H" note on his trumpet which even Harry James couldn't beat. His program was sponsored by Eye. Ear and
Throat Specialists Betty Bougan. and Charlene Jahnke.
Leaving the big city I went to Detroit. Michigan. Here I might complain right to Henry Ford about his
cars. Before I boarded the train I bought the morning edition of the "\.-w York Sun": editor of this paper
was Sophia Papadopulos. w ith Howard llunro as assistant editor. Flossie Kane gave the paper spice as feature
editor.
\ short distance from the train station in Detroit I saw a line of women filing into a building. I stopped
a lad) and asked what was happening. She informed me that the women in Detroit were having a contest to
see who was the best dressed woman. I immediately fell in line and it was not long before I was ushered to a
seat in the front row. 'ora Christe was among the contestants. In my opinion, my friend was the slickest chick
there.
After the contest I went over to talk with Nora. We had supper in a hotel around the corner. Nora told
im that Alex Mlichaud was a mining engineer. His wife. I learned. was none other than Joan Styles. She also
helped him as his secretary. His office was just a few blocks distant.
Leaving them I went to a lecture given 1i Professor Ernest lRuinells. Hi- topic for the evening was ge,-
logical specimens. His \cry capable assistant was Professor Brian iAlbrigiht as lank and lean as ever.
I found a map of the United States. shut ni eyes and pointed to a citt. The city I had chosen was Salt
Lake Citv, Utah. In a short time I was aboard a plane. The hostess asked me if I was getting air-sick. As I
looked up to reply. I met the blue eves of kindly Beulaih .imons. Xci i l I in h,.Il' was the capable pilot of the
plane. As we settled down on the airstrip I gathered im belongings and bade Heulah and Neyle goodabe.
I was very anxious to see the famed Salt Lake so I ent there first. I was ,overjoyed to find a small cabin
overlooking the lake that was inhabited by Jackie Lee and her husband.
Jackie told me that Phyllis Fisher. who had inherited a fortune. was making plans to irrigate the deserts
in Utah. The main engineers for Phyllis were Paul Cain and 1uriel Jordan.
I had heard a great deal about the performances at Sun \ alley at this tine. Eager to see them. 1 found
the theater performers were Jose Colina. Jenrn Korenbrot. and .lar Janre Salmon. The\ were dickering with
several producers for movie contracts-Jose as a dancer. Jennv in a corned\. while Marx Jane tickled her
magic piano. Freda Flenniiken was the owner of Sun \ alley Lodge. One mile from Sun \ alley. I discovered
the small town of Ketchum. the Monte Carlo of Idaho. laria (,arcia was the wealthy owner of one of the
modernistically designed gambling houses there.
I wanted to see the capitol of Idaho as it was something I had nc\ er seen. Walking dmon Mlain Street in
Boise. Idaho. I saw a fashion shoppe. I went inside the shoppe and a verx attractive woman came up to me.
It was Rita llann. She owned this shoppe and made dresses to order. her motto being. "Let Rita do it." She
told me that Edt'arld Illlaier was Lieutenant Governor of Boise. It wxas rumored that Gi'bert l ounig would be
running against Eddy when election time rolled around.
Continuing on my way home. my plane landed at Pocatello for repairs. I knew the University of Idaho's
southern branch was in this city. and I wanted to see this college bcfore I left. s, I went there immediately. The
president of the university was smooth Donald Kane. while hi- fa% rite professor of women's sports was Mary
Louise Turmran.
Hurrying back to the airport in order to make the next plane. I sutmmoned a taxi. On the door was the
motto "Larry will take you." I learned from the cab driver t':at Lar v IIlmincie owned the line.
As 1 entered the air terminal I bumped into a dapper vxoung man. It was Roinal, RossAkop. He was a
salesman for the Hunter Diamonds. guaranteed. not for life. but forever. It seems lacklie Hunter discovered
this mine on a ranch left her by her uncle Jo Jo.
I was very eager to see a certain luxury liner that had iusI come into Golden (ate Harbor. iThe con-
struction of this famed liner had cost a fabulous sum. I ti.ok thel next train for San Francisco. and arrived
just in time to see the liner before it left the harbor. On ihe biiot I met iacAkle I hitlock, now National President
of The Toastmtistress's Club. Jackie told me that ilig !!cK n:ie has been elected Miss America of 1959. She
also told me that Roiwena Burton was competing against Helen MIarquard for the title of world's Most Vamots
Baton Twirler.
The annual Rose Bowl game was being held in Pasadena. California. The All-American team was to be
chosen from its contestants. and coach of the team was to be Thomtas Siiimmolnds.
I finally reached my home town of Cristobal. Canal Zone. In this metropolis I found that Syiria lustin
was happily married and owned a prosperous farm just outside of tow n.
Another happily married graduate of the Class of Nineteen Hundred Forty-nine was Barbara f en/tworth.
She has proven the theory that working women can keep home and career on the same basis and still be a
successful business woman. She is now chief buyer for the Cristobal Commissary.
Returning to visit Ye Little Red School House I found that Sanna lurrnden was an instructor at Cristobal
High School. The outstanding shorthand teacher was Albertina Trecia.
Money is credited as being the root of all evil. IMoney brought me a siege of happiness in these delightful
contacts with my former classmates. I too was a vital portion of that illustrious '19 Class. But mv only claim
to recognition was my tiny inheritance which hlis now been spent. so again I retire into oblivion.
