We are in the very unique position of being a leap year class. This is a phenomenon which occurs only to one class out of four so we have decided to use leap year as the basis of this. Our Class History. T ucking our diplomas into our pockets, we started out on our first daring leap into High School. We selected Bob Wolf for President, Don Meier as Vice-President, Iris Walters as Secretary-Treasurer, and Maxine Peck and Bonnie Cohoon as yell leaders. Under the very capable guidance of these officers, we started out on our first leap. Our second leap was the mixer. Some of us wanted to leap over that, but the Seniors reached up and pulled us down. A good time was had by all, except us. Our third leap was into the new High school. We felt little twinges of regret at leaving the old building but those were soon forgotten in the joy of moving into the new one. Our next leap was a skit in the vaudeville and was followed closely by the party we gave the Sophomores in return for the one they gave us. Many of our members were honor students. We were well represented in football, basketball, track and baseball as well as having three members turning out for debate, having members in Tumbling. Pep Club, and Eagle Coterie, and having two actors in the all school play, one playing in a leading role. When we finally got our report cards for the year and found that we had passed we went home for the summer vacation after the moving assembley. We aren’t especially new to this hopping business—we have had one long strenuous hop in getting this far. Now that we are here, we are going to stay with it for the second leap. Our class officers were elected as follows: President .......................... Vice-President ..................... Secretary Treasurer ................ Yell Leader Girl’s League Representative ....... .. Clyde Hayden ..... Don Meier ..... Iris Walters Bonnie Cohoon Kathleen McDonald Our first enjoyable leap during the year was being the guest of the Freshmen at a Soph.-Frosh party. Surviving from the party okay, we tackled the new idea of the Sophomore Mother's Tea on December 10, in the school cafeteria. In the Boy’s Smoker we had those famous two. Bob Albin vs. Leonard Hollis. We returned the Freshmen’s party by giving them a Frosh-Soph Barn Dance party in the cafeteria. Once more showing our originality we organized a class band under the capable supervision of Mr. Henrichsen. Drawing a deep breath, we as Juniors joyously leaped into our third year of work in Arlington High School. We were capably led by a fine group of officers which were: President ................................... Harold Smith Vice-President ............................... Bob Albin Secretary ........................................... Iris Walters Treasurer .......................................... Elmer Husby Yell Leader ....................................... Bonnie Cohoon Girl’s League Representative ........................Helen Diesing Our first major leap of this year was a party given in honor of the Senior class. A jolly time was had by all. Leap No. 2 was a peppy assembly given to boost basketball. Leap No. 3 was a huge success—remember our Penguin Promenade? Under —23— cSeniot C lass l listo'n the capable management of Don Meier, everyone declared it a huge success We were entertained by the Senior Class of ’39 in November. We had a large turnout for different activities, being well represented in the All School Play, Honor Society, Basketball, Football, and Baseball. Twelve members were officers of different clubs and we left a fine group of officers for the next year's A. S. B. The last and final leap proved to be a very successful one for the class of 40. The Seniors with their outstanding leadership and ability will leave a vacancy which will be hard to refill. The class was not only well represented in the many activities but also in upholding the scholastic standing of the school, as shown by twelve Seniors in Honor Society. We won the A. S. B., All School Play, and Fall Vaudeville ticket sales, putting three 40's on the Salesman Plaque. Such sports as Football, Basketball, and Tennis hvae brought to the front a number of winning Senior players. Our class gave the Second Annual Homecoming Ball and Assembly, December 29, for the old graduates, honoring the classes from 1905 to 1923. The girls in the class gave their annual Big and Little Sister party. A senior. Kathleen Spragg, was chosen to be editor of the Annual, as it is no longer a Junior class project, but a school project. Look our class officers over and see what you think of them: President ................... Vice-President Secretary ................... Treasurer ...................

Dear Patrons of the Great Paul: As the biographer of Paul Bunyan, first and greatest of American woodsmen, 1 am happy indeed to hail his glorification in your 1940 Annual. For Paul, Thanky kindly. Paul Bunyan’s adventures on the Stillaguamish. in the times beyond our count, were many and varied. It was there that he first got bears in his beard. One winter a number crept into his wiskers, while he slept, to hibernate. When they awoke in the spring and began to stir about, they tickled Paul’s neck so much that he laughed like seventy-seven peals of thunder at once. Mountain sides slid. The slides can be seen to this day. Every winter thereafter Paul Bunyan used bear powder on his beard. It was in the Stillaguamish that Paul's wife. Tiny, once lost her false teeth. To retrieve them Paul barbecued a beef, looped a rope on it, and dragged the beef up river. Tiny had the biggest appetite ever known. Even her teeth were trained to it, as Paul well knew. Now, just as he had figured they would. Tiny’s teeth rose from the riverbed like a striking salmon, snapped on the barbecued beef with a death grip, and so were reeled in by Paul Bunyan. The mural of Paul Bunyan at Arlington school is a small reproduction of the miniature that Tiny wore at her throat, on a gold-plated logging mainline. With best wishses to all of you. Yours sincerely, James Stevens We. the editors of the Stillaguamish Trail of 1940, thought that it would be particularly appropriate to have James Stevens, the Paul Bunyan authority have a word about his buddie in this issue of our annual. The above letter, of which we are very proud, is the answer. A word about James Stevens—Who’s Who in America informs us that he was born in Iowa—served overseas in the World War I and is now Director of Public Relations for the West Coast Lumbermen's Association. He is the author of Paul Bunyan, 1925; Brawnyman, 1926; Mattock. 1927; Homer in the Sagebrush, 1928; Saginaw Paul Bunyan, 1932. Contributor to American Mercury. Country Gentleman. American Magazine, Saturday Evening Post. Mr. Stevens lives in Seattle. —32— Taught us there is other knowledge In books will never be found. But gained through good fellowship with others In service to mankind be bound. cActivities CIRL'S LEAGUE On entering high school every girl automatically becomes a member of Girl’s League. The purpose of this organization is to assist each girl in the development of character, leadership, scholarship and service. A special award is given to the outstanding senior girl each year. The officers this year were as follows: President, Bernadine Hallock; Vice-Presi- dent, Arlene Wangsmo: Secretary, Anita Baunsgard; Treasurer, Anna Mae Johansen. Each year the senior and freshsman girls exchange luncheons. We held our sixth annual posture contest with Irene Wiberg receiving first place: Iris Walters, second: and Bonnie Cohoon, third. The senior girls won the annual mixer with a Thanksgiving play in November. Among the interesting speakers were Mrs. Waite, the county police matron: Miss Veste, a beautician; Dr. Burdon, who spoke on health and hygiene: and Mrs. Carl Moll, vocalist. BOY'S CLUB There are three functions of the boy’s club in the Arlington High School. One is to help the boys select a vocation that will interest them; to do this the Vocational Com- mittee obtains speakers to talk on the different vocations. This year the club has enjoyed a series of vocational film slides as well as speakers; these help them to select a vocation in an interesting way. The Social Committee takes care of Intermural sports and other activities The School Improvement Committee helps make improvement in school life and conduct wherever it can. The officers are; Bob Albin, President; Frank Turk, Vice-President; Lester Haddenham, Secretary; Charles Nygard, Treasurer; and Edward Korsboen, Sergeant at Arms. PEP CLUB Pep Club has been an active club with forty members consisting of sophomores, juniors and seniors. They have given a number of assemblies throughout the year and their major project was taking care of the program, decoration and serving at the Basketball Banquet. Officers: President, Arlene Wangsmo; Vice-President, Iris Walters; Secretary Louise Bjerkaker; Treasurer, Martha Grimm. Hl-Y CLUB The Hi-Y Club represents a co-operative relationship between the school and the Y. M. C. A. It offers the boys a chance to consider problems in the light of Christian ideals and teachings and presents opportunities for service. The requirements for member- ship are Christian ideals, respect and confidence of the faculty, good scholarship standing, and willingness to work. The Hi-Y club sold 500 basketball schedule pencils this year. Their outstanding project was sponsoring the School Boy Patrol. Officers; President, Don Meier; Vice-President, Doric Ball; Secretary, Pen Mathews; Treasurer, Marion McCaulley; Sergeant at Arms, Dan Hunter. JUNIOR CLASSICAL LEAGUE The object of the Junior Classical League is to foster interest in the classics and classical studies in Arlington High School. J.C.L. sponsored the Christmas program for the third time; held a Christmas card contest; made a study of various phases of Roman life; and held a Roman Holiday in the Ampitheatre at Terrace Park. Officers: President, Irene Wiberg; Vice-President, Arlene Wangsmo; Secretary Constance Wegner; Treasurer, Joyce Ambrose. —35— HONOR SOCIETY Honor Society is an organization for those students making a certain number of points in grades and activities each semester. The outstanding event of the organization in the fall is a banquet given in honor of the Freshmen making the honor roll the first time. This spring they gave a May Day Tolo. Officers: President, Katherine Gilbert: Vice- President, Jean Gibbins; Secretary, Louise Bjerkaker, Treasurer, Dorothy Bluemke. F. F. A. Last summer we entered a float in the Fourth of July parade, but with no results as far as prizes went. We also had a pop and ice cream stand at the Dairymen’s picnic. When school started we sold a tractar that the boys made in Farm shop last year for fifty dollars. Later we had a booth at the Stillaguamish Fair and won third prize. We had a banquet and two barn dances. Officers: President, Elmer Husby; Vice-President, Art Smoke: Secretary, Joe Hillis; Treasurer, Lester Pederson; Reporter, Otto Mickelson; Watch Dog, Dean Meredith. LETTERMEN'S CLUB Going throughout the school year without any club officers, the Lettermen’s Club made a fine showing in promoting athletics and interclass contests under the head of Coach Currey Mitchell. Next year they plan to introduce a new system of awarding letters based on accumulation of points. This system has been used by other schoolss with great success. T. O. T. T. O. T. had one hundred and twenty-five members this year. They had a party honoring the Frosh, one in the mode of Thanksgiving, one Christmas, Spring, and the last in honor of Summer. T. O. T. is a social club, having a party approximately every month and a half. At the parties, there is a program, dancing, and refreshments. Officers: President, Edna Mae Farrell; Vice-President, Dan Hunter; Secretary, Constance Wegener; Treasurer, Bill Lampley; Adviser, Miss Jones. —37— CLEE CLUB The Glee Club is under the direction of Mr. Swanson. It presented a one-act cperelta for the fall vaudeville. However, the greatest activity was the spring operetta. “In Grand Old Switzerland.” BAND AND ORCHESTRA The band has played at several of the games this year. The orchestra has played for the preformance of the vaudeville, the all-school play, senior play, graduation, class night, and Baccalaureate sermon. Mr. Swanson also directs the band and orchestra. —38— SENIOR BALL I he second annual Senior Ball was given December 29, 1939 in the gym. A program was gvien at 7:30. This was in honor of the classes 1914-23, with the class of '14 as special guests. Several old grads gave interesting speeches Also present were two teachers who taught at the first Arlington High. After the program everyone went to the gym where Mark Kimball and his band played from 9-12 o’clock. The theme of the ball was “Memories. The decorations consisted of old pictures, and the class roll of the class of 1914. A large crowd attended and all reported a good time with the hope that the following classes would also sponsor a Senior Ball.” . JUNIOR PROM The Junior Informal was successfully given on March 29, 1940. The theme was “Grapetime” and the gym was appropriately decorated with purple and white ballons representing grapes, and vine covered arbors. A1 Drebin and his orchestra provided the music while a colored spotlight played on the dance floor. The general chairman was Virginia Williams: decorations, Iver Ronning; music, Marjorie Westover; invitations, Margaret Ward; Patrons and Patronesses, Doran Brown; Clean-up, Rowland Parker. —39— ALL SCHOOL PLAY ‘‘Little Women,” the all school play, was held in the auditorium on January 2, 1940. It was enjoyed for it is a story that never has, and never will grow old because it deals with the increase of human emotions. The portrayal of the four sisters, their trials and tribulations, and not least of all their happiness that is felt by everyone near to them, made indeed an interesting play. Jo experienced a difficult time with Teddy in making him understand the way she felt about him. Then Teddy found he loved Amy and Jo turned her affections toward Professor Bhaer. Meg had always liked John Brooke but they met with some misunderstanding after they were married, but this was soon ironed out by Marmee. Little Beth, so beloved by all, died, although her parting was not a bitter one. Marmee and Father loved their children dearly and lived entirely for them. Aunt March seemed frequently to squelch bits of merriment but was truly very kind at heart. The costumes and setting were excel- lent, making the finished product “one to remember.

The name of the play was, Parents and Pigtails.” Dudley Robinson has spent his business life planning trips for other people. He has been saving his money for years and now has a year's vacation in which he plans to take the family on a trailer trip. In the meantime Margaret has planned to have the house remodeled while Dudley is home to enjoy the process. All this is planned for the interest of the children, but the children have plans of their own. Sandra, the eldest daughter, is secretly engaged to John although no one would know it because of her associations with Ken. Remember the surprise of the family when these three announcments came over Ken Bristol's seven o’clock news cast? The newscast created a furor not only among —40— the Robinsons but the neighbors and friends as well. Mr. Robinson goes to sleep in the trailer; Mrs. Robinson is prostrated on the davenport. Sandra, in disgust, breakes her engagement to John, who immediately finds solace in Pat’s affection. All this leaves Ken free to pursue his suit with Sandra. After many complications Mr. and Mrs. Robinson shoo Sandra and Pat off on a double wedding and the lively Elaine off on a skiing holiday for the summer; and all ends in peace and contentment.

With humanity struggling on its laborious way. We, a group of children, careless, thought free. Romp in the shadow of life’s great tree. And we laugh and live, in the shade. We add age to the lives God made. The good God knows, when our time arrives. And silently removes, our lives. So if He takes, from 'neath that tree. One that’s dear to you and me. Then let us say a prayer to Him, Who runs the lives of mortal men. Let us not curse, the Mighty Hand, Of Fate, the God that made the man.

The team was light and inexper- ienced but you can’t say they didn't try! They had the spirit if not the size. They lost seven games, winning but one. The players showed a decided improvement towards the end of the season, scoring two thouchdowns against Marysville and holding Snohomish scoreless until the last minute of play. Good results are expected from a number of players left for next season. FOOTBALL PF.RSONALS R«b Albln—Halfback.

He was hard to stop on defense when he wanted to get in there. His weight will be a big loss to next year’s team. Roderick Cyra—Center. Rod could really block when he wasn’t centering and was a good center when he wasn’t blocking. His fight on defense will be missed next year. James Harris—Guard. ■Killer” he was called, and if you have ever seen him mad you would believe it. Jim was one of the hardest players on the team and will be greatly missed next year. Joe Hillis—Guard. This was Joe’s first year and he made it a good one. It’s too bad he hasn't another year. Chet Jensen—End. Hampered by injuries but one of the scrappiest fellows on the team. Chet played very good football. This is Chet’s last year of a successful football career. Ed Korsboen—Guard. Ed would rather play football than eat. and this made him play last year by far the best he has played. Ed liked to block and could hit as hard as the rest of them. Pen Mathews—Halfback. This was Pen’s first and last year. Pen was fast and was always in there fighting. Don Meier—Fullback. Eton's vicious tackling stopped many opposing backs cold. On offense he blocked hard and called signals. He was one of the team’s most valuable players and will be missed next year. Walter Pooler—End. Walter had that great desire to play football. He overcame many handicaps to play a good brand of ball. Too bad he hasn’t another year. Harold Smith—Wing Half. Smltty” was small but knew his football and liked to play This was Smitty’s first and last year. One more year to grow and Smitty would make a real football player. Milton Williams—Quarter. Milt liked to see how hard he could hit the big fellows and got a lot of pleasure out of it. Another of the smaller players, he would go great if he had another year. 44 1st ROW—H. Smith. L mpley.

They were about in the middle for standings for the season. The Eagles won four and lost four games in the league play and they went about half way in the tournament. They lost to Marysville in one of the most thrilling games in the history of the Snohomish County Tournament. Four of the ten lettermen are leaving this year so the Eagles have high hopes for the season of 40-41. BASKETBALL PERSONALS Harold “Smitty” Smith—-Smitty, a letterman from last year, played a fine passing game throughout the season. His skill in handling the ball will be a loss to next year’s team. Don Meier—Don is a veteran guard who played a cool game of ball. He was a big mainstay on the team this year and will be greatly missed. Frank Turk—Frank, a letterman from last year, played good ball throughout the season but was hindered somewhat by an ankle he broke in the football season. Marion “Muc McCaulley—Muc was a little small but he made up for this in fine shooting. If he had another year left he would develop into a fine ball player.

BASEBALL As the annual goes to press, the Arlington Eagles are tied for first place in the Class A League with three wins and one loss. Starting the season off slowly, the Eagles lost four practice games in a row. Finally hitting their stride with their pitching staff clicking, and hitting the ball hard, the Eagles came along fast the last few games to become the powerhouse club of the league. Coach Mitchell has develoj cd three hurlers for starting assignments, and each one has rewarded him with a well pitched victory. Opening the league season with a practice record of one win and four setbacks, the Eagles took on Snohomish. Coach Mitchell called on Don Meier, veteran hurler, to start the game and Don responded by turning in a splendid no-hit game, but lost when his mates couldn’t score for him. The eagles next took on Edmonds, defending champs and favorites to win again this year, and Arnie Bjorn surprised everybody by holding them to one hit in six innings although he needed help from Ray Grewe to win, 7 to 4. The Eagles then defeated unbeaten Marysville when Ray Grewe held them to 3 hits in six innings. He also needed relief, this time by Meiers, before winning 8 to 2. Arlington really went to town on the cellarites, Monroe, rolling up the largest score of the season to win 12 to 0. Don Meier held them to one hit to win his 20th victory for Arlington. He whiffed I 4 while his mates collected nine hits and played errorless ball. 46 1 Left to Right—Art Pierson. Ed Korsboen. Pen Mathews. Russel Harris. Stan Boyer. Manager Carston Espe. Coach Nelson.

TRACK The track squad this year was small ind lacked experience. So far this year they have taken part in two meets—The Relay- Carnival, and the County Preliminaries. The freshman turnout was not very gratifying but was a better showing than the previous year. With the completion of the track this sport will enjoy a greater interest. TENNIS This year's squad has been one of the strongest in the country to date. They have won three, tied one and lost one game out of five county matches. In practice matches they have not done so well, they lost both practice matches they have played. The squad this year is unusually large. About ten players have been turning out regularly throughout the season. From these there is one senior and one junior, the rest are sophomores. This gives tennis at Arlington High a bright future. First Singles .............................Harold Smith Second Singles ...............................Jerry Stan- First Doubles ...............Doug Young and Art Smith Second Doubles Dean Skillingstad and Nick Healy Others have played second doubles but these two look as though they will get their letters. ’Sr 47 GIRLS' SPORTS VOLLEY BALL This year the Junior girls outplayed all the other classes to win the Volley Ball Tournament.
