School oard The CUHS School Board, under the leadership of Chairman Dick Manick, have completed another successful year of coping with the difficult task of governing the school community. These men spare no effort in trying to keep this high school a progressive one. We, the students of CUHS,.are grateful to these men for the fine job they have done in years past, which has made the present more enjoyable. It is a job which, we know, they will unselfishly continue to do in the future years. Many seemingly unanswerable questions that have arisen have been faithfully and dutifully answered by these directors. These men, in doing their best to better our school, are setting an example that every student should learn to follow. We should all remember that trying to solve the many problems of school government is not an easy job. Neither time nor patience have been spared by these men who have become the directors of our high school education. With the school year of 1953-54 coming to a close, we,the students of CUHS, wish to express our thanks to these men, for their unfailing help and co-operation during the past nine months.

It ought to be easy--just take a look at the line-up, and there it is. But in practice it doesn't work out quite that way. The Annual staff, for example, is a team. We have our reporters, editors, photographers, and the rest. But we also get help, just as any other kind of team does, from many others whose names do not appear on our line-up. In our case, these behind-the-scenes sup- porters-these names which do not appear in our line-up --are our advertisers. And are these advertisers important to the Annual? Well, the cold, hard fact is this: without our advertisers, there wouldn't BE any Annual. Sub- scriptions and all other sources of income total LESS THAN HALF of the cost of producing the Annual. The balance-well over half the cost--is made up by advertising sales. This year, in spite of the fact that the country generally is tightening its belt, these advertis- ers again gave us their whole-hearted support. In fact, this year our business manager did something which as far as we know has not been done before: he sold a two-page ad. Some of them have placed ads in Clatskanie High School Annuals before we were born. They're glad to do it, of course--but too frequently they haven't been thanked for it. That's why we're thanking them this year this way--by dedicating this Annual to them, the advertisers, the ones who pay the bills. Without them on our team , we wouldn't have made it this year, or any year. With them on our side, we DID make it this year, and we'll continue to make it in years to come. We've put on this page, where they belong, the names of the most important persons in our line-up, the ones who make the wheels Cor the pressesj go 'round. :s-:Z--':zr W' -I Q.--L+: s r Armstrong's Marshland Shepard-Morse Lumber Lawrence Insurance Puzey Machine and Sheet Metal Works Wilson Store-Westport Tourist Grille-Westport Men's and Boys' Clothing Lila's Beauty Shop Astoria Office Supply Westport Service Station Columbia Hardware National Bakery First National Bank Clatskanie-Rainier Co-op Lower Columbia Co-op Quality Auto Parts Wanna Lumber Company Clatslranie Motel The Club Pvool Hall Colvin's Pool Hall .

C.U.ll.S. Facult . . . Principal David A. Sta1ey's philosophy of successful administration is built upon an understanding of students' problems. The door leading to his office is always open to any student who wishes to confer with him. The aim of Mr. Staley and the rest of the faculty is to make CUHS a pleasant place to attend school. Their problem, of course, and ours, too is making CUHS a pleasant place AND a place where some learning is achieved. The perfect school, we know, hasn't been invented yet. But when it is invented, it will be a place where students and faculty, and especially the administration, all work together in the common interests of everyone concerned. We feel that CUHS has a good start in this respect because the faculty and students can sit down to- gether and discuss their current mutual problems. Parents and faculty attend the an- nual Mother's Tea, dances sponsored by the students, sports events at home and away. And many other times dur- ing the year, adults and students meet, in and out of school, to renew old acquaintances and to make new ac- quaintances. We like it this way, and we know the school itself benefits. We who are leaving hope that coming classes will keep it that way.
