Vintage Acalanes Pictures Discovered by David Carter
(with his captions)
  
"Charles Eaton, Major Sports Coach"
 
"You've Volunteered"
 
"PE Coach Gene Ridley inspects the future of America"
This appears to be our Junior Year.  Left to Right we have Biff Baker, '57, Dick Ball, '55, Gary Biederman, '57 and Bob Blake(?)
 
"Was this Student Body Prez Gene Bell with a touch of Spring Fever?"
My guess it's a Rally with Ernie Fox, '58, leading a yell with either Natalie Pray, '57, or Judy Parker, '57.
   
"The educators audition for Broadway. Seated rear right, back to camera, could be Robert Wilde"
 
"What hit Erwin Matson and why?"
According to Sam, this was a skit put on by the teachers in our Junior Year. Verna Phillips, the school nurse, is giving first aid to Matt, or something!
  
"The Faculty takes a bow"
 
"Robert Wilde at a Friday night football game takes a warming brew."
   
"David Carter, fifth from left. But who is the girl giving the camera a V or two-finger sign?"
   
"Wrong game, Joe Sheaff. The slam-dunkers went the other way. Extreme right of shot: Jan Lilja."
From Right to Left it's, Jan Lilja, Jean Reid, Joe Sheaff, Janice Parnham, Karen Jacobsen and Kathy Robers . . . I think!
 
"Not even Mike Laurenson's ministrations helped the Acalanes squad win tonight."
 
"Sales, like the team, were down."
   
"Running around circles."
This has to be our Junior Year.  Left to Right it's 36, Gary Williamson, 27, Sonny Faulk, '57, and maybe 26, Gary Arel, '57.
 
"Junior Prom/Dec. 9, 1955: From left to right: David Carter, Jeannie Hunicutt, '58, Ruby Yaryan and Guido Graziussi"
    
The Walnut Festival, "God Bless America"
 
The Walnut Festival, "Parading the Flag"
 
The Walnut Festival, "Celebrating Custer"
 
The Walnut Festival, "Where are they now?"
   
According to Robin Muse, '54, this is Elmo Heard's Model A Ford!  An "oldy but a goody"

That car in the background could be Phil Shoptaugh's 1950 Ford, or possibly Fred Arbogast's 1949 Ford . . . all in the Acalanes school Parking Lot.

 
"Carter vigorously denies Britain lost in 1776."
