You'l1 find them conducting meetings, planning banquets, or getting out our school paper. You can watch them on the football field or on the basketball floorg and-yes-you'l1 even find them studying. Between classes or at noon the corridors of B.E.H.S. ring with their bustle and laughter. So with pride We dedicate this book to them in the hope that this book may bring back many of the pleasures and achievements of 1948. urw' K.. ms, Nav. KK . ,- K.

Zzgmf Quads Due to the crowded conditions in the Burlington Grade School, two Eighth grade classes are now located at the High School. They are instructed by two very well liked teachers, Mr. Hawley and Mr. McAuley. The majority of the Eighth Grade students like it here better than at the Grade School, because they are able to take advantage of our Home Economics, shop and athletic departments. Having had a preview of B.E.H.S. life, they are looking forward to, becoming Freshmen next year. Thirteen 5.9144 qmze Top Picture-Top How: Mr. ML-Aulay, J. 'l'hrznner. J. Walker, D. Price, A.

Seaton 81644 The familiar pattern of carefree school life which develops during the first three years of high school was set aside this year for the new. exciting and important duty ot prideful leadership. X , The first event this year was our successful Winter Wonderland Senior Ball. The Senior play, Bottoms Up, a sparkling comedy, was a smash hit, with the cast giving a splendid performance. The year quickly sped by to Class Day, swept on to Baccalaureate and culminated in the glorious ending: Commencement. These activities could not have been so well accomplished without such able super- vision by our class officers: Co-Presidents, Norman Dahlstedt and Alicia Simons, Vice- President, Lawrence Elmstromg Secretary-Treasurer, Edward Mason and Sergeant-at Arms, Herb Balch. The teacher advisors were Mrs. Oldenburg and Mr. Wills. In school sports our class ranked tops, three senior members of the football team. Herb Balch, Robert Moors and Marcel Rochefort placed on the All-Northwest Football Team, and two, Jack Ruthford and John Hopley placed on the second team.

Arrived in Los Angeles this morning, had lunch with Lance Elmstrom, movie actor. Jane Svoboda and .loan Buthford, producer and director ot' the great Broadway hit, Bottoms UP, were there also. As we were walking through Hollywood, we noticed an old with a tin cup. And imagine our surprise when we found it was none other than Bob Moors. The Perry Post-Intelligencer is the most wide- ly circulated newspaper in the city with Don Gressey, cartoonist. As we drove through Beverly Hills this after- noon, we saw a large ranch, about 450 acres. lt belongs to .less Galbreath and Gary VVorline. lt is said that there business takes place in the garage-bootlegging. the streets of decrepit man After having dinner with the great dancing team, McAdow and Ratficld, we called a taxi cab. There was a load in the cab already. Larry Brendle and wife, Marilyn, with their twin sons. On our way to the train depot we saw a bill- board stating Paul Dealy, famous wrestler, bat- tles 500 pound giant, Ray Hergertf' As we boarded the nationally known train, The Spirit of '48, we were surprised to notice Sylvia Patten as conductor, and Joan Brown as chief engineer. As we rcclined in the club car we heard a terrific noise. 1 looked up and was astonished to see the mayor of Sedro-Wooley, Bob Schols, and his nine children. As we had our dinner in the dining car we were entertained by the Jungle Beat Band and torch singers, Mary Anne Johnson, and Margaret lsling. The band consisted of Balch, Cottrell, and Pearson. Also on board the train was Gerald Kerman and Robert Miller. Gerald has invented a new type of camera, one which perfects the women's figure. Rtifieltmliiis iliifecntelqd it new element, the formula o' w ici is , 'I . After arriving in New York, we went to the finest hotel in town. The Learned-Lieb Hotel, specializing in week-end guests. While sendfing a telggram, l noticed Bob Ho- back as chie telegrapier. Also guest at the hotel was the famous Senator from Peublo, Edward Mason. The radio was on in the lobby and we heard the familiar voice of Duane Smith, who took over Walter Winchell's position. Flash, Nation's Mother of the year has just been announced, Mrs. Barbara Fleek Dally. Flash, Gene Neely, world famous midget auto racer has just set a new record, 35 smash-ups in one week. VVe saav ilfhyllis Mercerau scrubbing floors on the fourt 1 ' oor. From here we went to the Walden, Wallace, Watkinson and Butterfield Circus. We find Dick Smit owning the trucks that move the circus. Also he keeps the owners from entertaining the per ormers. We heard the familiar bark of an auctioneer. lt sounded like he was auctioning oft' women's ready-to-wear. Oh, oh, Norm Dahlstedt. Who would have ever thought he would end up like t iis . We saw Don Allsbaugh, Hindu snake charmer, in action. Also Carroll McMillen, barker for the fat lady, Maureen Sawyer. It seems she is the money making part of the circus. Featured in a side show -was Laurel Whelan. lt is said that she is known as The Woman Phonographf' With an added feature, she never runs down. There was some excitement at the horse tent. One of the horses must have been ill because we saw Doctor Grover setting to work. When we were going to our hotel rooms we met Arnold Stapnes, the second Mr. Anthony and .Ierry Streeter, who has taken the position of President gf .Flite Stub, Why Don't You Speak foriourse , o n. When we picked up the evening paper we saw an ad that 1'an similar to this, Four easy les- sons on how to make a Man-trap. Guaranteed to get any man. Call Carmen Peterson. We see that Dan Sullivan is president of the United Bahelors for Independence Club, whose motto is: Be a bachelor and bring up your child- ren to be the same. G Wefind in New York also. Donna lfoldervart still pulling teeth, Twila Splain runnning a day- nursery, and Dorothy Taft is correcting manu- scripts for True Love Magazine.

Miss Boe, her- self, teaches the famous hold for feminine self- defense-The Claw Hold. As we boarded our strato-plane heading for Oklahoma City where we expected to see the premiere production of Burnt Passion starring Wayne Watkinson and Mable Smit, we saw Hon- orary Chief Hopley of the Alaskan Indian Tribe, Squaw Joanne, and many papooses. Stewardess on this plane was Faye David, pilot, Lyle Pier- son and co-pilot Ronald Dowen. ' Picking up a Vogue fashion magazine, imagine my surprise to see that Velma Vogler is thc feature editor, Velvyn Langley, the dress de- signer and Bruce Egbert, a Conover model fea- tured in the magazine. We saw Walt Humphrey, gold mining Pros- pector, traveling with Keith Kaiser, owner of the Kaiser interest in the Kaiser-Fraiser ca r manufacturers. By the way does Roberta McKee still play in the Boston Symphony Orchestra? Dean of Vassal', Mary Pagels, was on the plane also. She had three seats filled with books. She said she was going on a vacation. She had a Burlington .lournal so l got quite a bit of news from that. Glad to hear that tBlanche Wyman and Joseph- ine VValden are being ever-loving wives and mothers around that comnmnity. And that Hat- tie Whitt has chosen such a worth-while oc- cupation as teaching the old settlers in Alger how to raise bigger and better mushrooms. Glad to hear Ray Rasar finally made the Bow that Jack Ruthford finally baseball team, and got a Job, cleaning streets in Venice, Italy. read further as the plane I was unable to suddenly lunged forward, and I was thrown to the floor. The last I remember, the plane went into a spin. As I awoke wondering what had hap- pened and where I was, the familiar tune ot' Zeek came floating through the tall pines of the Ozarks. I pulled myself from beneath the wreckage. and heard the voice of Simons saying Have an- other-coke and at her side stood Kenna still serenading us. Well, Mom, I don't know when I will see you again, but until then these two refugees from civilization have offered to put us up until help comes. Hoping to see you soon.

Next we meet them as irresponsible Sophomores climbing on the way up. Now, having reached the dignity of the Junior year they have carried Junior traditions with flying colors with various activities and social functions.

The Sophomore Class entered the Burlington-Edison High School with flying colors. To start the year off right, we elected class officers early in the year. Roger Fleek was elected President, while Kenneth Thomas was Vice-President. Glenn Smith did a swell job as Secretary-Treasurer. Merle Rahier was elected to serve as Sergeant-of-Arms. Lois Fosness and Bruce Miller were our representatives to 'the student council. Our Advisors Mrs. Harnden and Mr. Larson gave us much help during the year, working with our class officers to make it a successful year.. A few weeks after school began we initiated the Freshmen. It was quite amusing to see those green Freshmen going from class to class in their pajamas with onions around their necks. That evening we gave the Freshmen a party. This was given to show that there were no hard feelings between the two classes. In the spring a return party was given to the Sophomores by the Freshmen. The Sophomore class was well represented on the athletic teams, with several boys receiving first and second team letters. Many members of this class were officers in several different clubs. As we come to the close of our second' year in High School, we all will remember the good times we have had together this year as Sopho- mores. But we are looking forward to even better times as high-and-mighty Juniors next year. Thirty su cn 6' 4 Top l'ictu1'e-First Row: A. lingdahl, D. l.carnL-ll, D. Martinson, D. Martin l.. Lindamood, R.

Freshmen were in evidence selling concessions at the games, where they could see some of their own 51'rs playing some snazzy second team basketball. Freshmen boys looked promising for future football teams bringing B.E.H.S. to victory. Guiding the class of 51 were Mr. and Mrs. Norman, with Dick Parsons serving as Presidentg Leo Hogue, Vice-Presidentg andn Lucy Sukuma as Secretary-Treasurer helping them out.

The band, under the able direction of Mr. Truman Youngberg, has again presented the annual Spring and Christmas Concerts. Besides giving concerts, the band has performed at all football and basketball home games. We hope that the Burlington-Edison Band will continue to maintain the high standard it has set this year. Ghana Although the number of chorus and glee club performances was small, it was soon proved by the excellent spirit with which they took part in numerous assemblies and programs that they could make up for it in quality. . Under the direction of Mr. Truman Youngberg, several performances were given, includ- ing the Christmas concert, the annual spring concert, and baccalaureate exercises. The chorus also participated in the Northwest Music Festival which was held in Anacortes in March. , Joanne Weber was accompanist for the chorus. Forty-nine TOP PICTU lili- First How: N. Rodewnld, B.

With this creed in our hearts we have striven to make ours a truly great Girls' Club. We carried on many activities during our busy year. For the purpose of acquainting the freshmen girls with upperclass girls, a Big and Little Sister Party was held in the gymnasium at the first of the year. Following this we all chipped in to make the annual Football Banquet, which is in honor of-our football team, a huge success. At Thanksgiv- ing, we Worked with the Boys' Club and took a very enjoyable program out to the Old Folks' Home, and at Christmas we filled Christmas baskets for the old people at the Home. The annual Mother and Daughter Tea which was held in the spring was enjoyed by everyone who attended. Many other activities were enjoyed during the year such as the presenting of an ex- change assembly at Mount Vernon, sponsoring mixers after home games, and selling con- cessions at various athletic events. Officers for the year were as follows: President, Joan Ruthfordg Vice-President, Nancy Lovingg Secretary, VaLee Vogler, and Treasurer, Jane Svoboda. Our advisor for the year was Mrs. Alice Oldenburg.

There was a clam bake for the fathers and a final dance at the end of the year. This was aside from the regular work of the club. This was also the first year for the Skagit County Boys' Club Council which was made up of representatives from all the Boys' Clubs in the county.

The chapter participated in all judging contests in this area besides sending a team to the Interna- tional Livestock Exposition at Portland. To further educate the officers of the chapter in the proper procedure for meetings several of the local officers, along with Mr. Wills attended the officers training school, held at Meridian. The chapter outlined a program of work, consisting of different committees to work on outlined jobs such as supervised farming, earnings and savings, scholarship activities, recreation, and leadership activities. In memory of the founding of the National F.F.A. the Tiger Chapter sponsored a fifteen minute radio program over station KBRC Mount Vernon. , Standing: Mr. Wills, A. Stapness. First Bow: 0. Bob, B.

This year there have been many improvements at B.E.H.S. in construction and in new organizations all to be either photographed or reported on. Dances. parties and club initiations were covered with pencil. paper and camera. And there was always a representative of the staff at the Thespian performances. Then there were those unfortunates who had their billfolds raided for the benefit of that catch- all page. A couple of girls campused Skagit County selling ads. Proceeds from programs sold at basketball games also helped to support the financial side. And so with the cooperation of the faculty and students, our parents and the business men of Burlington, the members of the annual staff of 1948-have done their best to por- tray every person and every activity with reality so that this year's Tinas Coma may be one to be remembered in the years to come.

With this motto always before them. the members of the Torch Club of Burlington-Edison High School proceeded through the year of '47-'48. Maureen Sawyer was the able president, and Mr. Lloyd acted as teacher advisor. Through them, the club functioned actively. Selling programs at the football games was their main source of income. On the evening of October 30th, the annual banquet was held. This was a very formal af- fair. the initiation being held the afternoon before. The other officers of this club were: Vice-President. Lyle Weseng Secretary-Treasurer, Marilyn Egelkrout, and Custodian Mary Anne Johnson. . This year the Torch Club consisted of a total of 47 members. Twenty of these came from the Senior class, 18 from the Junior class, and 9 from the Sophomore class. To be in the Torch Club, a student must have a B average, and no grade below a D . The student must maintain this average in order to remain in the club. All of the mem- bers of this organization are worthy of the honor bestowed upon them when they are initiated into our school's academic club. the Torch Club. l il'ly-eight ham, K. Anderson, M.

' The charter members were installed on December 19, and the new members initiated at the beginning of the semester.. A large number of the Thespians were from the sixth period dramatics class. so they worked together on most plays and skits. Throughout the year a study of make-up and stage properties has been made, with everyone exercising his talents when plays were put on. Several one-act plays and a three-act play were given during the year. The group took part also in pep assemblies and in other activities under the able leadership of Mr. Paul Brincken, Advisor. and Carolyn Kenna, President. The Thespians are off to a fine start.

The Tigers started the season with a 25-O non-conference win over Ferndale. The Tigers racked up another win over O'Dea of Seattle by a score of 20-O, before meeting some stiff opposition in the Snohomish Panthers who gave the Tigers their first taste of defeat in a defensive battle in the driving rain. The Tigers traveled to Anacortes to eke out a 20-19 victory. Next came the unsuspected powerhouse from Marysville, who has been a jinx for all Tiger elevens for the last several seasons. The Tomahawk eleven were in command until the final two minutes when Hopley chucked a short pass to Balch who sped over for the final touchdown making the count 25-19. The Tigers traveled next to Arlington. to hand the Eagles their fifth conference defeat, by a score of 20-0. Next came the game of the year, which made a successful season for both the fans and the team. The Tigers ground out a 26-O halftime lead. but the Bulldogs came back for two touchdowns in the final two periods but their rally fell sorefully short. The Edmonds Tigers journeyed up to invade Burlington, they ran up a very big looking 6 points which lasted for 3 quarters before the home team came to life scoring 3 quick touchdowns to win handily 20-6. The final game of the season found the Tigers traveling to Sedro- Woolley to determine the holder of the American Legion Trophy. The Tigers als 0 emerged from this victorious, as they have the last three years.

Forty young and eager boys turned out to greet Coach Ken McAulay the first day of September turnout. Their training this year was the hardest of football. they had to learn to take the bumps and jolts that make good football material. Their season was not the most successful one on record, with but two wins, but it gave the boys the experience that will prove valuable in varsity ball. The boys worked the same formation as their big brothers and although it wasn't perfect it was Well enough executed that the flaws can be taken out next year. Some boys from the squad that will see action on the varsity next year are: Dick Par- sons, a fine passer, runner and kickerg Bill Egbert, little but aggressive, Ed Maynard, very fast, and Mike Neal, a rugged end.

Seniors dominated the starting positions with Captain Jack Ruthford at centerg Bob Moors and Eugene Pearson at forwardsg Bob Schols and Dan Sullivan at the guard spots. This combination was ably supported by a young Sophomore nucleus consisting of Gerald Reinert, Jack Theissen, Don Hiltz and Bruce Miller, who should prove to be outstanding in another year. Gene Overway, an Auburn transfer along with Jim Sulli- van and Gary McMillen also showed promise on the maples for future hoop contests. Dan Sullivan was voted the inspirational player of the year by his fellow cohorts at the annual banquet sponsored ,by the G.A.A. y The climax of the season was the road trip to Southwestern Washington, where t he team split two games by defeating Raymond High in an overtime period and losing to the Valley Vikings of Menlo.

Cubs hung up their Blue and Gold tmiforms with a season's record of six wins and eight losses in league play. Composed of Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen, the squad displayed the traditional Tiger fighting spirit and hustle, and proved a number of times that they could come from behind and win the close games. Outstanding for the B squad were Jim Sullivan, the big and rangy Junior centerg Dick Coons and Dean Adkins, the sparkplugs of the outfit. The Sophomores were well repre- sented by Bruce Miller, Don Hiltz and Jack Theissen, who no doubt will play a lot of basketball for the Blue and Gold before their graduation. Although short on experience the Freshmen, Bill Benson, Dick Parsons, Lyle Kirkby, Frank Jewett and Leo Houge proved they could match baskets with most of the opponents. ' Seventy-one li. M ..
