Thanks to the Star for publishing my little cartoon honoring Quentin Bryson, the "Athlete of the Year" for 1959 at Catalina High. I enjoyed drawing those sketches, always to honor boys, never the best girl athletes. Not once. We had fine girl players, like Sandy Boonstra who was sports "girl of the year" her junior and senior year, playing volleyball, basketball, softball and hockey. But no cartoon. Wouldn't happen today. Let's hope.
