Text from Pages 1 - 132 of the 1925 volume:

(Ibr ItUaguamtah cTratl Published By (Class of 1926 Arlington High School Dedication To Stanley D. Boyer, in recognition of his faithful service and his undivided interest in the welfare of the school activities and the Annual, do we respectfully dedicate this number of The Stillaguamish Trail. Foreword As the years go by we seek a quiet corner to renew old memories and live again the happy days of yesteryear. And there exists no fonder or more lasting memories than those of our school companions and school days. It is the wish and hope in this Annual to provide such memories, to chronicle the events of the year, to etch them in history, that in some bright future you may pursue this modest account of the schoolastic year of '24 and '25. —Editor. LIFE I love you life. The joys, the tears, the strife. Often I feel that all is lost. Yet I would not give you up at any cost I love you life. Life thou art good to me. Though oft I’m tossed upon thy tempestous sea. The sorrows and heartaches have been mine. Yet life thou art sublime. I love you life! —Lena Hollingsworth Senior Class History Four years ago there entered this High School a group of Freshmen filled with the desire to drink from the cup of knewledge. We felt a little green at first, but after being made full fledged students at the Freshman Mixer we soon took up our duties as Freshmen. We elected our class officers and chose the purple and white as our class colors. VI e proved our ability in athletics by capturing the championship of the school in baseball School work seemed a little hard at the beginning but being possessed with the grit and determination which is characteristic of the class of '25. we steadily forged ahead with an undaunted purpose. When we came back again next year we found ourselves in the position of worthy Sophomores. We were no longer the source of amusement for the upper classes, but had our own turn at teasing the Freshies. Our numbers were slightly diminished and some familiar faces were missing. This, however, rather helped than retarded us, for those that remained could be depended on to further the interests of the class. This year a number of our boys helped win the county championship in football. We branched off into the different clubs, taking an active part in school activities. The time flew swiftly and pleasantly onward, and before we realized it, we had entered on our Junior year. The responsibility of putting out the Annual now became one of our duties. We had now learned the golden rule of work and met this task with a determination to succeed. With Melvin Forbes as editor and Maurice Dunn as business manager, an Annual worthy of our pride was put out. The Junior Prom was the main activity of this year. It was a decided success and a good example of what the class of '25 could do. School life had now taken on a more colorful luster, and we looked forward to our Senior year with elated spirits. We were now firmly established in school and were ready to take up the leadership handed down to us by the preceding class. At last we have arrived at the long sought for position of Seniors. For three years we have steadily progressed towards our goal. The honor of having the leadership of the school is now ours. We look back upon the pleasant times enjoyed during the three years we have attended High School and begin to realize that this has been the most njoyable time of our lives. This year is destined to be the most successful year of our High School career. We have representatives in every school activity. The greatest number of the football boys belong to our class. They helped make Arlington known by aiding in its establishment as football champs of the State. We found it our pleasant duty to prove our superiority by trouncing the Senior Class History—Continued other classes in track. This we did with a hearty good will although the Sophs, gave us a good race. There is a splendid opportunity for some of the boys to finish their High School careers with a state track medal on their breasts. The Senior play fulfilled expectations in every respect and set a fitting example for our successors to follow. With the Senior Ball and Sneak Day as coming events, we will have our lime occupied with pleasure as well as work. We’re now about to embark on a long voyage. We see in the distance a new land filled with opportunities and full of promise. We step on board the ship, the anchor is tripped, and we sail off to a new world leaving the dear old haven of Arlington High as a pleasant memory behind us. —Haakon Wahl.

My thoughts turn backward in their flight And one short day seems time to fill Four gay, impulsive years of keen delight. The faces bright with friendly joy. The teachers striving to instill Ideals, our future paths to light. Steal slowly back to memory. The tedious hours of study gone. Time, mole hills out of mountains makes, O Spring of life! When all was gay Ne’er dreamed we of the rougher way That years have sternly moved us on Guided and inspired by thoughts of the?. —Pearl Skeers. Junior Poem Vim, Virtue and Victory (Junior class motto) From that first day on which our class didst start Its journey through these four short years of Hi., Vim found a place in each and every heart And forced the germ of indolence to fly. We’ve ever done our very best to lead In all activities which here took place But Virtue must be found within each deed And honesty must help to win the race. T ogether Vim and Virtue pave our way. And by the aid of these we’ll surely find Success, that’ll give to us pow’r we pray 1 o lend a helpful hand to all mankind. —Mable Bloxham.

H. S. is far the best. In studies and athletics too She’s done as well as any do. Her Annuals show what she has done And how her championships were won. Her student body made her fame.

Making it light and like a lily in bloom, A Junior writing in a book of gold. Exceeding peace had made the Freshman bold. And to the presence in the room he said, “What writest thou?”—The upper classman raised his head. And with a smile but all alert Answered, The names of those that love to work. And is mine one?” asked the Freshman. “Nay, not so.” Replied the J umor. The Freshman spoke more low. But cheerily said, “I pray thee then do not sigh. But write me as one who loves the Arlington Hi.

Fred Meyer The A. H. S. News The Arlington High School News is a compartively new undertaking. It was only a year ago when the students of the A. H. S. decided to have a real school paper. For three years a short column in the Arlington Times was the only attempt toward a school journal. Bob Wallis was the sole contributor to this column. He began by writing short articles on the activities of the Vo- cational Club; his articles were given the name of V. C. Notes. Gradually news of general importance to the high school found its way into this column and the name was changed to High School News. The following year a page of the town paper was devoted to school events. The second semester a real paper came into being and with it the posi- tion of business manager was added to the staff. This year we, the members of the staff, have done all in our power to attain the highest degree of perfection. The paper is of more value to us than ever before. It is not only edited by the students but published also. Of course, we have had our difficulties but with the help and guidance of Mr. Bowman and later in the year Miss Turner, we remedied our mistakes and profited by the experience. Mr. Bowman has always been near when we needed help and he was continually looking forward and thinking of some way of bettering the paper. We wish to thank the advertisers for their patronage. We realize that our paper could never have existed if the business men had not given us their support. —Edith Roy Novelle Nettles C rl Lowe Miss Turner Lena Hollingsworth Debate ec- 5—Arlington ..................I Sedro-Woolley ................... 2 Jan. 9—Arlington 1 Lake Stevens ................... 2 l cb. 13—Arlington ................3 Mt. Vernon ........................0 Mar. 13.—Arlington ................I Burlington ...................... 2 Although not many victories in decisions were obtained this year, it can be said that a great deal was really accomplished. The debaters received some valuable knowledge, and this, in its.If means much in Debate. The question this year was: Resolved that the Filipinoes should be given their immediate independence. This is a question which should be settled, not for sentimental reasons or commercial selfishness, or because of the admitted accomplishments of our Nation in the Islands, but for the welfare of the people of the Islands. The tryout was held in early November and the following team was selected by capable judges: Novelle Nettles, Lena Hollingsworth, and Carl Lowe, with Earl Van Zandt as alternate. The season was opened with a debate at Sedro-Woolley. This debate was a splendid example of logical thinking and effective oratory. The debate was very close, but the final decision of the judges was in favor of the affirmative. On January 9, we debated Lake Stevens on the local floor. Arlington defended the Affirmative, but, in the estimation of the judges failed to clear up the negative’s contention. The third debate, also at home, was with IVIt. Vernon. The outcome of the debate was never in doubt, due to the knowledge of the question and the skill in handling the arguments which the home team displayed. The last Debate was held at Burlington, March 13. The arguments were well presented on both sides, and the d cision of the judges was reached only after the last rebuttal was given. In logic, in clear-cut clash of argument, and in delivery this debate is conceded to be one of the best and hardest- fought debates in which our team ever took part. Although we received but five votes out of twelve, we feel that in the end we did not lose, but rather gained a great deal. Too much credit cannot be given Miss Turner for the capable help she gave the team. The debaters worked hard, but it is because of her able coaching that they made such a splendid showing. The High School students are beginning to show more interest in De- bate, and it is hoped that before long, it will become as popular as athletics. The increased interecst in debating and the assurance that two of this year’s team will return next year make prospects for the future more encouraging. It is probable that next year we will have two teams, thus making less work for each team, and chance for a well-worked-up grouup of speeches. —Novelle Nettles The A. H. S. Orchestra ’25 The Orchestra has spent the two semesters very beneficially and service- ably, having played for all programs and debates given at the High School, as well as for some outside entertainments. Much time and practice were given to the Orchestra of the Glee Club Operetta, “My Maid on the Bambo Screen.” They also played the graduation March and other numbers for the class of ’25. Much credit is due to Miss Ensley, the director of all music in the school. She has been very patient and dexterous in training an amateur class of musicians. The instruments and players are: Piano ............................ T rumpet B flat .................. Saxophone E flat ................. First Violin First Violin First Violin .....................

Last year under the direction of Miss Ensley. it was again a success. Last fall, a great number of the girls again gathered in room 6 in answer to Miss Ensley's call, to become members of the club of '25. Con- sidering the size of the club, many fine voices were found. Tuesdays and Thursdays were decided upon as the days for us to meet to practice. We immediately started practicing on several simple songs and grad- ually worked up to some far more difficult. The lives of many of the greatest composers were also studied. With the mid-year several new members joined our ranks and added much to the interest of the work. After a great deal of serious consideration, the opperetta My Maid on the Bamboo Screen. was selected for our use. It was a Chinese romance dealing with the Royal Family of China. It was given May the eighth, the evening after the May Day Festival. With the orchestra’s accompaniment beautiful scenery, and colorful costumes, the opperetta could not help but be a great success and a credit to Arlington High. The Glee Club has not been alone in earning honors in singing, for the Sextette, a side issue of the Glee Club, has given some most appreciated numbers on the program at many high school functions. We wish to express out gratitude to Miss Ensley for her untiring efforts in making the Glee Club and Sextette what they are. We are now proud of the Glee Club of '25 and with each year’s ad- vancements, hope for greater success. —Ella Eyre The Senior Play On the twenty-seventh and twenty-eight of March, the Senior Class presented Booth I arkington’s “Clarence,” a four-act comedy. It was a real comedy and the members of the cast did especialy well in every part. Winnifred O’Laughlin in the role of the governess, Violet Pinney, was so charming a charactr that we do not blame her admirers for their devotion. Fred Westberg’s realistic portrayal of Clarence gave us a real know- ledge of what a true authority on Cleopatra is like. Harold York, as Mr. Wheeler, the tired business man and domestic storm center carried his burdens easily, while Martha Hoidal as his wife proved that a jeolous wife can be an extremely engaging person. Pearl Skeers and George Moll in the parts of Cora and Bobby Wheeler got along together with such perfect harmony that they seemed really sister and brother as well as serious minded and important children. Haakon Whal as Mr. Stem, the deceitful grass widower was a drama- tic figure. Mary Burnett played the part of the capable secretary, Mrs. Martyn, in a very satisfactory manner while Ruth Miller as Della and Joseph Smith as Dinwiddie were perfect servants but very interesting people. Clarence, the down and out ex-soldier, starts life over again when he is hired by Mr. Wheeler because he can drive mules without swearing. He appears at Mr. Wheeler's office in time to overhear a domestic storm caused by the jealousy of Miss Pinney shown by his wife and the troubles of Bobby and Cora which are so serious to themselves. Clarence’s position in the household is not quite definite enough to satisfy the butler but be buys a new suit, plays the saxophone, and because of his likeable personality becomes a great favorite with the ladies. He causes Cora to forget Mr. Stem, Mrs. Wheeler to cease being jealous of Miss Pinney and Della to decide not to sue Bobby for breach of promise because he kissed her and then found he had a high and spiritual love for the pretty governess. However, Clarence is deeply interested in Miss Pinney but he cannot be sure just how he stands in her estimation. He assists her in termin- ating an unplasant interview with Mr. Stem who really loves her although he pretends an attachment for Cora in order to see her. Mr. Wheeler begins to realize that he does not even know Clarence’s name when he sees his wife’s fondness for him so he allows Mr. Stem to charge him with being Charles Snort, a deserter from the army. Clarence succeeds in convincing them that he is Clarence, a noted biologist and their admiration is great. Miss Pinney accepts his proposal of marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler make up and Bobby and Cora are sent back to school. The class wishes to express its sincere appreciation of the fine work of Miss Spreisterback in coaching the play. It also thanks Mr. Moll for making possible the luxurious office and living room shown. —Doris Miller. Spanish Program On Friday. December 19. the pupils of the Spanish department put on for the student body a program in Spanish. Mable Bloxham, accompanied by Carl Olson, sang “Spanish Roses,” after which Fritz Hedman gave a short reading from Calderon. Harriet Swain and June Marsh sang “Noche de Paz, Noche de Amor,” the familiar “Silent Night.” These numbers were followed by a one-act playlet entitled “La Fonda Imperial,” in which roles were taken by Beth Baker, Ebba Paulson, and Arthur Nelson. Teresa and Anita, two young girls, meet in a restaurant, a young man known by Anita Arturo, the man, suffering with a terrible headache, fails to recognize Anita. Teresa offers her headache cure to Arturo, who finds himself cured. He leaves, but, pretending to be in search of his newspaper, returns, at which time he recognizes Anita. On asking the name of Teresa’s medicine for headaches he discovers he has been made well by smelling ammonia water, which serves for washing one’s hair. “The Wonder Hat” The High School presented the playlet, The Wonder Hat as a fea- ture of the three-night picture exhibition. The cast was coached by Miss Spriesterbach. Paul Verd was the jealous suitor and Eleanor lies the fair heroine. Laura Breen acted the part of an old witch, Margot, while William Reed was a bashful young man w'ho bought an invisible hat so as to hide from the girls. Carl Olson took the part of an old junk peddler. He sold a slipper to Eleanore which would make all the young men fall at her feet and make love to her. Whenever Eleanore wore the slipper every one would make love to her. She loved the bashful William, but he kept in hiding, thinking all women were fickle. One day as Eleanore strolled into the park she happened to try on her magic slipper. Paul, who accompanied her, fell to his feet and started making love. William, in his invisible hat, was near by and watched the proceedings. Every time Paul seemed to be gaining favor he struck him with his sword causing Paul to shriek. After this had been going on for a time the old junk peddler happened along. During his conversation he mentioned the sale of the invisible hat to William. Eleanor solved the mysterious sticking of Paul and pleaded with Wil- liam to show himself. After a good deal of coaxing he did. William, after talking with Eleanore soon changed his mind about the fickleness of women. Lyceum Circuit As an added feature in the course of the year, the Ahngton High School put on a lyceum circuit for the benefit of the art and music lovers of the community. The Redpath Lyceum Company united with us in putting on this program, and as a result, we had five performances here, any one of which was worth the money paid for the full amount of the season ticket. The first number, The Harp Novelty Company,” consisted of a number of instrumental and vocal solos and ensemble numbers. The harp solos which were played, were given with a dash of spirit and technique as to charm the most exacting of music critics. The “Betty Booth Concert Company” is composed of world known musicians, and Miss Booth herself entertained the audience with her wonder- ful vocal solos. (There were a number of instrumental solos and ensemble numbers by this trio also.) The Forum Trio,” composed of harp, violin and piano, was an ex- ceptionally fine trio of musicians and singers and all of the music lovers that heard them had not one thing to criticize. Perhaps the best number on the program was J. Smith Damron, the Potter Craftsman.” Mr. Damron, as he built up his vessels on the old- fashioned potter’s turning wheel gave examples of his work in which he showed how characters may be moulded as the clay is moulded under his skilful hands. As he made his vessels, he quoted many gems of literature. Mr. Damron had a really fine collection of American art pottery and chinaware, including replicas of the dishes used in the White House at Washington. He also showed us how it is possble to distinguish real porcelain from the cheaper grades of dishes. The last numbers was a real entertainment for the adults as well as for the kiddies. It was The Marionettes.” a puppet show. The play given was “Jack and the Beanstock,” and it was very true to life. This is the first year that the school has attempted to put on a course like this and we feel proud of our success in having made it possible. —Leslie Hay Junior Prom On Friday, February 20th, the Juniors staged the fifth Prom held by the High School. In most every way the affair was the most brilliant ever car- ried out by the High School. The crowd was the largest ever present at a High School function. Over four hundred couples attended the Prom. The pavilion was beautifully decorated in honor of the Seniors, in their class colors. White streamers hung down from the ceiling. The light shining through these gave a very beautiful effect. The walls were banked with cedar boughs, which emphasized the color scheme. The Patrons’ alcove was furn- ished with rugs, floor lamps, rockers, and all other modern drawing room furnishings. Barney’s orchestra supplied the music and succeeded in pleasing everyone. During the intermission four couples entertained the crowd with two Scandinavian dances, which were greatly appreciated by all those present. The patrons and patronesses for the evening were: Dr. and Mrs. E. E. Mose, Mr. and Mrs. L. R. Palmer, Dr. and Mrs. E. C. Leach, Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Martin, Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Bowman, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Verd, Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Starlund, Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Palmer, Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Moll, Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Sessoms, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Hinman, Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Wendell. —By Novelle Nettles. Freshman Mixer On a stormy night in the fall of 1924 all the new Frosh attended the annual mixer. At eight o’clock the mixer started in full swing. The class was led into a hall by their class officers. They were relieved of their shoes and then blind folded. The Frosh were subjected to one of the most tortuous hours in history. After the cruel treatment the Senior Class president got up from his desk to shake hands with the new now full fledged students. Each as they shook his hand received an electric shock. After the strenous mixer they were compensated with light refreshments. —Madeline G. Thompson. Freshman-Sophomore Party Friday evening, December fifth, the Freshman entertained in honor of the Sophomores and football boys in return for the Freshman mixer given them. Talks which were given by Principal Bowman, and Fred Meyers, presi- dent of the Sophomore class, were followed by a short program. Later the time was given to dancing, after which refreshments were served in the Do- mestic Science rooms. —Evelyn Roy. Science Club Parties Several times during the school year the Science Club entertained the students. The first was a ‘‘Kid Party.” Harriet Swain won the first prize. Miss Spriesterbach. second, and Ellsworth Satra, third for the best costumes. At the entrance of the mid-year Frosh, the club gave a dancing party in their honor. That evening prizes were awarded for the best dancing. Hazel Gay and George Starlund won the first prize. Cream puffs were served as refreshments. Art Exhibit On the nights of November fifth, sixth and seventh, the Elson Educa- tional Art Exhibition which was composed of 200 large direct reproductions of masterpieces of architecture, sculpture and paintings was held at the High School. Entertainments were given in connection with this exhibit by primary, grade and High Schools. The funds were used for purchasing as many of these masterpieces as possible, for the Arlington Schools. —Meryl Van Iderstine. Associated Students Officers: President ............................... Martha Hoidal Vice-President ............................ Harold York Secretary Winifred O'Loughlin Treasurer .............................. Melvein Forbes Business Manager ..................... Maurice Dunn Though the Associated Students is a comparatively new organization in the Arlington High School, it has been a success. The students are better satisfied after having a voice in the investment of their money. As a con- tribution to the community’s education and entertainment, the A. S. A. H. S. introduced a five number lyceum course. The students presented an art exhibit to the public. By this means money was raised to buy pictures for the various halls. The athletic season was a success both financially and otherwise. New equipment was bought for all the athletic teams. Under the supervision of Mr. Boyer and Mr. Hallock a fence was built around the athletic field; also “knock down bleachers were built to accommodate the crowds. The materials were bought by the A. S. A. H. S. The boys and girls’ dressing rooms were outfitted with well ventilated steel lockers. Along with these improvements, pennants have been purchased to show our achievements on the athletic field and also in debate. Considering all factors this has been one of the most successful years in the high school history. Girls’ League Another school year has passed, marking the second successful year of the Girls’ League. This club was organized by Miss Harris at the beginning of the term last year, and since that time has accomplished much considering that this is a comparatively new organization. The one big thing accomplished by the League last year was the furnishing of the girls’ rest room, of which the girls have a right to feel extremely proud.. The League’s first social event this year was the annual mixer which was held in the gymnasium. This affair from every standpoint proved a splendid success. As usual the Girls’ League did not fail in doing their bit for the A. H. S., but willingly rendered their services at the high school Carnival. At about the middle of the term the girls decided to adopt a creed for their organization. Many girls entered in the competition of the creed writing, but to Bernice Bailey for the honors—for her creed was accepted. Upon the resignation of Edith Roy, the League’s president. Myrtle Chausse was elected to fill the vacancy. The girls were very sorry to lose Edith for she filled this office very satisfactorily. A great deal of the credit for the League’s success is due Myrtle, also the other officers—Winifred O’Loughlin, Vice-President; Eleanor lies. Sec- retary; and Harriet Swain, Treasurer. Credit is also due the various class representatives who so earnestly worked for the betterment and advancement of the League. To Miss Harris the greatest credit for the succes of the League must be given. Miss Harris has given her faithful and untiring energy to this club. She has aimed to encourage and promote its highest ideals as well as growth, working for the League’s future as well as present welfare. —Winifred O’Loughlin m t Forum Club OFFICERS President .............................Paul Verd Vice-President ...CHARLES LeTSON Secretary-Treasurer ..................Carl Olson The past year has been a very successful one for the Forum. Many in- teresting meetings were held. The club, having been organized for the consid- eration of topics of the day, many lively forensic, “free for all’s were enjoyed. The club took on new life at the beginning of the year when many new members were admitted. Under the able guidance of Mr. Bowman as faculty member the club has not only held many meetings of interest and value to the members, but has also given several parties and picnics for members and their friends. In a series of meetings the club heard reports on and discussed the “ele- ment of success in the lives of prominent men.” This was of especial value to the members, as many important elements were brought out for consideration. —Carl Lowe. FORUM CLUB ROSTER Perrico Wendell Nelson D. Lowe C. Lowe Starlund Burnett K Verd C. Olson Colbon Smith Sessoms P. Verd L. Olson Reed R. Palmer Letson H. Palmer The Literary Club The literarily inclined students of the Arlington High School created three years ago, a serious minded institution and named it the Literary Club. This child of literature and art has prospered and advanced. It has shown unusual precociousness and adaptability but like many other quickly growing children, it has had many changes and alterations. In the first year of its being meetings were held every other week but, with the growth of the club it was found necessary to change the meeting time to once a month. This gave longer time for preparedness and better, more in- teresting programs were the result. The programs, too, have undergone a change. Heretofore they were rather nondescript. With their alteration they became more serious and delt with certain current topics, such as the labor problems. These programs were lightened by music and frequent humorous readings. Our Literary Child was found to possess other talents—actors and ac- tresses. The two little plays, “The Wonder Hat” and “The Mouse Trap were the outcome of this talent. But that isn’t all, the carnival was an inspira- tion of this club also. The other clubs under the auspices, and with the aid of the Literary Club, carried the first High School carnival to success, and inci- dentally, to some new' books for our library. We are proud of our club child; we are proud of all it has done this year, we are proud of its growth—its fifteen new members. In fact we are proud of everything that concerns the club and its ideals. Needless to say, we take pride in the chief guardians of the regulations and acts of the club—the president, Carl Lowe, the vice-president, Paul Verd, and Aletha Thomas, the secretary. —Eleanor Iles. The Science Club Under Mr. Ericksson’s resourceful leadership the Science Club has prospered greatly throughout the second year of its existance. The member- ship has been very nearly doubled during the past year and the Club has held many interesting and highly instructive programs. The Club has changed its regular meeting nights from every two weeks to once a month. 1 his was done so that the members could devote more time to preparation of the programs. In this way greater interest has been main- tained and better programs have been given. During the winter the Science Club sponsored several parties. One of the most enjoyable was the “Kid Party to which the school was invited. Strange and wonderful costumes of early childhood appeared upon teachers as well as students; and the memories of youthful days were reviewed in the games of the evening. At the Library Benefit the Science Club furnished a side show called “The House That Jack Built.” This was one of the most interesting even- ing’s entertainment, the house collapsed while occupied by James Burnett and several other of our well known heavy weights. The Club has also fostered the collecting of specimens for a museum. Several hundred articles of great variety and interest have already been gathered. On the night of the Elson Art Exhibit this collection was displayed in the biology room of the high school. This exhibit proved to be one of the most interesting attractions of the evening. The Club plans to enlarge the col- lection and will build cabinets in which the different specimens may be kept without fear of breaking. The members of the Science Club are sure that it will keep up its good work next year. In doing this they expect to enlarge the Club’s membership, hold instructive meetings, and keep interest high along scientific lines. —George Martin Vocational Club Officers: President Sam Kratz Vice-President Harold Forbes Secretary-Treasurer ..................... Joseph Sabo Advisor .................................. Mr. Boyer The Vocational Club of the Arlington High School held its regular meetings throughout the year, confining its activities to sports and recreations of all sorts, thereby promoting the social welfare of the boys. The Club prepared some very interesting and amusing features at the school carnival. Much of the enjoyment and success of the year has been due to the energy and kindly advice of our advisor, Mr. Boyer. He has always aided us ably in everything we attempted. —Sam Kratz Roll: Rudie Thomsen Joe Sabo Ralph Montroy Harold York Bob Shequin Raymond Hansen Joseph Pederson Graydon Walen Fred Westberg Melvin Forbes Joseph Smith Fritz Hedman Leo Clapsaddle James Sturgeon Lphraim Pederson Iver Drivstuen Leo Moen Haakon Wahl Harry Nelson John Wendell Paul Verd George Moll Arthur Nelson Sam Kratz Jess Ruthruff Clifford Rod Lynn McQuestion George Preston Dick Palmer Donovon Orr Henry Mangis Gottfried Holmstrom Leslie Larson Robert Miller Lewrence Olson Frank Anderson Fred Meyers Jim Dunn Vernon Haroldson Clifford Underwood Albert Brekhus Berger Jacobson Ward Heikes Earling Jacobson Fred Verd Vernon Scott Clarence Preston James Burnett Earl Van Zandt Willie Anderson Andrew Brakhus Chester Reese Milton Morris Vernon Bertilson Teddy Perrigo Ejnor Osterlund Arthur Gulhaugen Wallace Gruwell Harold Forbes Donald Haroldson Lester Laudenberg Gordon Connacher Harold Mason John Windell George Starlund Annual Staff George Starlund Editor John Wendell ........

Athletic victories hold a prominent and merited place in the history of the school. One of the first outstanding rtcords v as made in 1907, when the base- ball team was undefeated throughout the season. From this time until the World War hardly a season passed without the Arlington representatives, “bringing home the bacon ’ in the form of further Athletic Honors. I he foot- ball team was the standard of the northwest, and the town and school were known for their support of the basketball team. In 1912 the five Arlington boys won first place in the county race and the girls went through the season undefeated, playing boys rules throughout. This was also a big year for A. H. S. in track, as it took place at the county meet. At this time the Tennis Club was a flourishing organization and the tournament arranged by them decided the school champion. Then the World War added another page to Arlington histories. The school was well represented and as in other schools, athletics suffered in conse- quence. In 1919, however, many of them returned and athletics resumed its normal place. Several ex-service men held places on the eleven that year and the team took second place in the county. Basketball and track were equally successful in 1920 and 1921. The basketball five took second place and the track men returned with honors in their field. The baseball team won every game except those with our neighbor, Everett. The football team under Coach Hallock’s able supervision was not scored against in 1922, taking first place; the nine won the county championship. In 1923 Coach Hallock built up a football team which won the cham- pionship of Western Washington, defeating the other contender, Buckley, 46-0. The other teams were successful but were unable to take the champion- ship. The wearers of the “A may well be proud of the distinctions, and the school is certainly proud of them. —Carl Lowe. Earl Kratz “Sam” (Captain-elect) Sam is rated as one of the best cen- ters in the state. He was always fighting and giving his best at all times. His blonde head and smile could be seen at the bottom of many a play. Raymond Hansen “Headache” Headache holds forth at guard. This is his last year. He played a strong game and wrecked many an opponents play. Rudie Thomsen “Abie” Abie played a wing position. Thom- sen was an artist at catching passes. He took delight in spill- ing the man who re- turned the punts. Clifford Underwood “Bools Another of Ar- lington’s wingmen. Boots could snare passes from the air and was fleet of foot. His long frame broke up play after play. It was very seldom plays circled his end. Fred Meyer “Duke Again it is the iron man. His fight- ing spirit won the admiration and res- pect of every fan. Duke was one of the best full backs in the state. On of- fence, he was a stone wall. Arthur Roose “Art Though inelegible the first part of the season. Art finished strong. He has prov- ed himself an able wingman. Fred Westberg This was West- bergs last year. He played a star game at guard though he was changed to tac- kle later in the sea- son, Westberg was one of the main- stays in the line. Harry Krauskoff “Fat This was his first year but he took his turn at guard. Though inexperienc- ed he performed well. Clarence Preston Jw ' Clarence Preston exhibits his prowess from left half. He is Arlington’s triple threat man. Preston is rated as one of the best all around half backs in the state. Leslie Larson “Deacon” Deacon played a majority of the games at right half. A mighty handy man was this boy “Dea- con.” Maurice Dunn “Plumber” Plumber was used as a utility back. At times he took a turn at the end po- sitions. Dunn can handle any position with credit. Ralph Montroy Red Red was one of Arlington’s speed merchants. 1 hough small. Red was fast and slippery as a cake of soap. George Preston George played a heady game at quar- ter-back. At all times he was a cool field general displaying good judgement in his choice of plays. Joseph Sabo Swede” Swede took his turn at quarter-back He barked signals like a veteran. What he lacked in statue he possessed in ab- ility. James Sturgeon Jim Jim shone at his tackle position. Stur- geon, York and Kratz in the line spelled doom for all half backs. Football The Arlington High School Football team won the right to claim the state championship, making this the most successful season in the history of Arlington High School Athletics. In three years Arlington has not been tied or defeated and has scored a total of 1087 points to opponents’ 37. The team has defeated three teams that have not been defeated by any other team in the state; namely Everett, Port Angeles and Raymond. This year the team completed a hard schedule without defeat. Coach Hallock has developed a wonderful grid machine. The end runs had perfect interference, this aerial attack was a worry to all teams and the terrific line bucks broke down strong lines. The line was heavy and low charging while the back field had science, speed and weight combined. Review of Games Arlington Sept. 26—Arlington defeated Mt. Vernon 40 to nil in the first game of the season. Arlington's line refused to yield an inch to the Mt. Vernon backs while Arlington backs wrecked Mt. Vernon’s line. Even though an opening game Arlington had all the looks of a title contender. Mt. Vernon failed to get within striking distance of the goal. Everett Oct. 4 —Coach Hallock’s eleven journeyed to Everett to settle an argument. Arlington emerged from the fray with I 3 points while Everett had only 12. In the first quarter C. Preston and Meyers gained 10 yards and 1 1 yards. Then Larson broke through right tackle for 18 yards, G. Preston going over one yards through center. In second quarter Munson of Everett scored on a split buck. Again Munson scored through same hole. Thomsen raced 12 yards for a touch down in the third quarter, tying the score 12 to 12. When there were only two minutes of play left, C. Preston booted a field goal, making Arlington 15 and Everett 12. Arlington Oct. 1 7—Again Coach Hallock’s football proteges grabbed another victory, they defeated Burlington 101 to nothing. The Arlington backs ran wild, making long gains at will. Captain York and his line threw the Burlington backs for losses time after time. Arlington Oct. 25—For the second consecutive year Arlington claimed the championship of Western Washington. Port Angeles had defeated the best in her section and had not been defeated for three years, and now claimed the same honor. By defeating Port Angeles 12 to nothing Coach Hallock’s hopefuls cinched the title. The Port Angeles team put up a game fight but could not hold up under Arlington's powerful on-rush. Snohomish Nov. 7—Arlington snowed the Snohomish pets under 60 to nothing. The day was rainy and clouds hung low, not permitting many spectators. Arlington took it easy till the last half, then opened up and ran up a few scores. The Arlington back field found little trouble in breaking through the Snohomish defense. Marysville Nov. I 5—Coach Hallock’s squad of football warriors de- feated the boys on the slough 75 to nothing. Arlington completed 36 of the 42 passes attempted. Several times Marysville got within scoring distance of the goal but at this point the Arlington line stiffened and refused to give an ---— F ootball—continued inch. C. Preston and Meyers featured the game with brilliant broken field running. Arlington Nov. 27—As a Thanksgiving attraction. Arlington’s valiant football team won the championship of the state of Washington by defeating Raymond nine to six. In the first quarter Clarence Preston booted a field goal. Raymond scored later. E.

The team was built around the veteran C. Preston. During the season two combinations were used. Thomsen started the season as center with Geo. Preston and Clarence Preston as forwards. Later Underwood was used at the tip-off position and Thomsen and C. Preston as forwards. The alternates for this year were Westberg and Sabo. Wendell and Shequin held down the guard positions. Marysville was defeated by Arlington twice, both at home and on the Arlington floor. The team defeated Lake Stevens twice. Edmonds proved a puzzling quintet for Arlington to stop. Edmonds and Everett won both of their games with Arlington. Burlington’s fast team which it took Mount Vernon five minutes overtime to beat, bowed before Arlington s fast team work. Considering experienced material and games the season was a successful one.

A large number of girls turned out. Six Seniors, eight Ju- niors, nine Sophs, and eight Freshies. The seventy-minute period was divided into two thirty-five-minute periods so that every one could practice. The team still retained some of the old tried signals and was put through stiff practice. Team work and signals showed to the best advantage in the speedy game with Lake Stevens at Lake Stevens. No practice games with outside teams were played this year. Girls' basketball this year was a huge success. Only one game was lost, and that by one basket. The first team lineup follows: Forward— Slim,” Martha Hoidal Forward—“Peg,” Margarette Botten and “Kitty,” Catherine Otin, alter- nating. Center—“Dodo,” Doris Miller. Side Center — “Shorty, Myrtle Chausse. Guard—“Pike, Ella Pike. Guard—“Windy,” Anna Winkler. —Myrtle Chausse. -stf—- Girls' Inter class Basketball Games The girls’ inter-class basketball games are becoming of more importance every year because in the larger schools, the inter-class games are rapidly tak- ing the place of school meets. This year each class was well represented on the gym floor. After some preliminary playing, the teams were picked and began work. The first game was played between the Freshmen and Sophomores. The teams were well matched and the game fast. The Frosh won the game, twelve to nine. Soon afterward the Juniors met the Seniors. The Seniors had the advan- tage of speed and experience so they won the match, thirty-two to four. Not until late in the season did the Seniors and the Freshmen meet. Again the teams were well matched and the game fast. The Seniors won thir- teen to seven. —Ella Eyre. Baseball 1924 The year of 1924 saw the first organized girls' baseball team. The rules and regulations of the game differed from that of the boys in that an indoor ball was used in place of the regular hard ball and also a smaller bat was used. The diamond was made smaller and work began at once. A large turnout from the classes made a lively practice. Two sides were chosen with Myrtle Thomsen captain of one side and Anna Winkler captain of the other. A series of games was played, w'ith Myrtle’s side coming out vic- torious. The girls played one outside game, losing to Stanwood by rather a large score. With the knowledge gathered from last year’s experience, the girls' team for 1925 will have better success. —Myrtle Chausse Baseball 1924 Arlington placed second in the county league. The team won five of eight games. Captain Kratz was the first string catcher. Thomsen, Reinseth and Hammond bore the burden of pitching. Later, C. Preston joined the squad. Starlund held forth at first, C. Preston at second, Meyers at third, and Dunn at short stop. H. Palmer, Nelson and Reinseth roamed in the outfield. The championship game was played at Granite Falls. Because of Kratz’s absence the infield was shifted round to plug the gap. This change handi- capped the players. The coach was forced to hold out his right hand pitcher as the Everett game was three days later. Coach Hallock developed a well balanced feam, tremendous hitting power, snappy infield and a brilliant outfield. The pitching staff was com- posed of three left-handers and one right-hand pitcher. Lettermen Catcher—(Captain) Kratz Third base—Meyer Pitchers—(Captain-elect) C. Pres- Short stop—Dunn ton, Reinseth and Thomsen. Outfield—H. Palmer, Nelson and First base—Starlund. Hammond.

Shortstop—Smith, Dunn. Outfield—Nelson, H. Palmer. Sabo, Thomsen. Track 1924 Last year the Blue and Gold track team won the coun y meet. Reid broke the 440-yard dash record at the Kiwanis track meet at Everett. Meyer won the cup for being high-point man of the county meet. He won the pole vault, high hurdles and placed in the low hurdles and 220-yard dash. G. Pres- ton and Montroy added points in the high hurdles. Brounly and Hemeke won first and second in the high jump. Connor won third in the javelin throw. Smith ran second to Reid in the 440-yard dash. Reid and Meyers represented the team at Pullman, Meyers copping second in the I 20-yard high hurdles. Track 1925 The county track meet was held at Everett. Arlington lost the track meet by 2 i points.. Meyers broke the 120-yard high hurdles, breasting the tape in I 7 seconds. He also placed in the pole vault. The 220-yard low hurdles he also broke, covering the distance in 28 seconds. G. Preston placed in the 100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, pole vault and the 120-yard high hurdles.

Good dress reflects a well ordered mind, good habits, and intelligence. Many an intelligent man has failed to convince others of his intelligence because of his careless, slipshod manner of clothing himself. As a man dresses so shall he reap—the good or bad opinion of his fellows. YOU SELL YOURSELF EVERY DAY TO SOMEONE and whether you gain or lose by the transaction depends upon the impression you create. Good clothes are an investment in good appearance—they ■pay big dividends and build for the future. Dress Well and Succeed Arlington is striving to be the cleanest town in the state.
