For publication and for your interest we have divided the drama into three acts. In Act I the various classes are presentedg Act II is concerned with the non-athletic activitiesg and Act III portrays the athletic activities. For your entertainment we have arranged for curtain acts, showing interesting incidents of school life. See this play often. Relive your part and in future years make the drama of Mt.

N gf ff Senior History Act I As the Class of '36 made its debut at Mount Baker High School in September, 1932, is was little more than a disorganized group of frightened freshmen. After the first few weeks in which they were duly initiated by wearing short dresses, carrying dolls and the like, we settled down to the serious business of studying. From an unorganized group we became organized with Ross Ha.m1in as president, Anna Henderson, secre- tary, and Miss Garland and Mr. Olmsted as advisers. To start our high school career out with a bang we almost immediately presented the skit "An Old Fashioned School" as our part in the Hi-Jinx. The rest of the school year went along without any special events for the freshmen until eighth grade visiting day when we presented our first program and Class Day when we became the Sophomores. INTERMISSION Aci' Il At the beginning of the second act almost all of the stage fright which we had experienced in the first act had disappeared and we enjoyed watching the mistakes of the frosh. Our leaders for this act were Eugene DeVisscher, president, Shirley Rogers, secre- tary, and Miss Kirby and Miss Garland, advisers. We again entertained the eighth graders with an amusing program, the main feature of which was a play, "The Dummy," featuring Bill Wilkins, Percola Kope, Joe Von Euw, and Dorothy Champman. So we became Juniors. INTERMISSION Act III As the Class of '36 appeared for a third time we were under the leade1'sl1ip of John Scutvick, president, Bob Brockway, vice-president, Jeanette Nyland, secretary, and Miss Nelson and Miss Kaufman, advisers. The evening of December 7 we presented our highly successful play-"Seventeen," by Booth Tarkington. The play portrayed the life of a seventeen-year-old boy, WVillie Baxter CEugene De Visscherj and his love affair with the "baby talk lady," Lola Pratt CNVilma Hoffmanj. Willie's perplexed parents were Bill VVilkins and Persola Kope, while Jane, Willie's little sister fAlice Caleyj, made Willie's life miserable by always appearing at the wrong time. May 3, the Class of ,36 entertained the Class of '35 at the annual Junior-Senior banquet and prom, carrying out the Dutch idea with flowers and windmills. So ends another act! INTERMISSION Act IV Our last act began uneventfully except for the usual freshman initiation which even we dignified seniors enjoyed. Our directors for this act were James Snitzler, presidentg Eugene Sumner, vice-president, Alice Miller, scretaryg and Miss Schlauch and Mr. Beighle, advisers. Our class has been well represented in all of the activities. The A. S. B. President, Stanley Gibbs, the vice-president, Eugene DeVisscher, and the business manager, Bob Brockway, are all from our class. We have been equally well represented in athletics, both boys, and girls'. On April 17, we presented our senior play, "It Pays to Advertise." Mr. Martin fJames Snitzleri, a wealthy soap king, made a wager with his rival and friend, Mr. Clark, that his son, Rodney fEugene DeVisscherl could make more money in a year than could Ellery Clark 6Pat Rileyj. Mary Grayson CLucille Grenierl, Martin's secretary, invents a scheme to make Rodney want to work-and does it succeed! VVith the help of Ambrose Peale tJack Ruchtyl a great advertising campaign is conducted. The French countess fPercola Kopej complicated matters for awhile, but by the time the play ended every one agreed that "lt Pays to Advertise." The future holds a Pirate banquet iso we hearj, Class Day, Baccalaureate, and Commencement. Thus the curtain closes on the Class of '36, XVe have had a very successful four years, and we are looking forward to even greater successes as We continue on our separate stage careers.

The members of the faculty choose eight girls from each of the Senior, Junior, and Sophomore sections. They must be not more than five feet four inches tall and have a pleasing personality. These girls must be capable of making the custo- mers of our theater feel that we really appreciate their patronage. Stage Force The stage force, under the direction of Mr. Gilbert, had charge of all scenery arrangements for the Junior and Senior plays, the Hi Jinx, and the Operetta. While each member of the force did his work well, the efforts of Toddy Gritch were particularly outstanding and deserving of Commendation. His artistic ability had much to do with the pleasing stage appearance noted at each production of the year. USHER CLUB Bottom Row: Caley, Jeans, Pinkey, G.

Senior Play "It Pays to Advertise" was presented April 17 by the Senior Class under the direction of Miss Schlauch and Mr. Beighle. Mr. Martin Uim Snitzlerj had made a fortune in soap, but in order to win a bet it is necessary to get his son fEugene DeVisscherJ to be a successful business man. It is all of no avail until Martin's secretary fLucille Grenierj steps in and then-does it work? And how! Ambrose Peale Uack Ruchtyj helps the work along by disclosing the fake Countess CPercola Kopej and writing advertisements that sell the soap.

Those who maintain their high standing throughout the four years are presented upon graduation with the permanent Torch pin. Debate This year the cross-question type of debate was used entirely by our debate team on the state debate question, Resolved: That the several states should enact legislation providing for a system of complete medical care, available to all at public expense. Mt. Baker placed third in the Debate League this year with two debates won and two lost. They held scheduled debates with Sedro- Woolley, Anacortes, Lynden, and Arlington, and practice debates with Meridian and Anacortes. TORCH SOCIETY Bottom Row: Putnam, Barnard, J. Scott, Biehle, Ham.

And it was injuries to two regular players that prevented a still better record. As usual the team was built around the seniors who had received some football experience the year before. These included Gibbs, Dunn, Scutvick, DeVisscher, Bjerke. Olson, Snitzler, Kline and Brooks. Their loss will be keenly felt. Basketball In contrast with the showing made in football, the 1935-36 basketball squad turned in their poorest season record in several years. To partly make up for this showing the boys managed to take third place in the county tournament, defeating two teams to each of whom they had previously lost two games. They then won a place in the district tournament by defeating Friday Harbor. The Mountaineers failed to place in this tournament, losing to Everett and Edison. Gibbs, Dunn, De-Visscher, and Olson will be missed from the team next year. Tennis Due to the late date of the county tennis tournament it is impossible to give any of the results at the time of this writing. These boys seem likely to 1'epresent Mt.

Baseball The largest squad that ever represented Mt. Baker reported for tryouts for baseball this spring. Practice began in the gym earlier than grounds or weather would permit outside play. These sessions limbered up the body muscles, quickened the eye to follow the ball, and schooled the squad in some very important parts of baseball play. The squad shows an improvement in team spirit and playing ability over any spring tryout heretofore. Our record of last year showed six wins to two defeats. There are high hopes to surpass that mark this year. Track Track prospects at Mt. Baker have not seemed especially bright for the 1936 season, although the Mountaineers will have strength in some events, particularly the dashes and the shot and discus. The following have very good chances of placing in the county meet: Gibbs, Harkness, Ruchty, and Brooks. oe . 5 ' 4.

Haddox, Kinderman, Cooper and Mariotto, who played the required five halves in football, Odegard, who met the re- quirement in basketball, and Leen, Pettigrew, Rose, Syre, and Hawley, who played the necessary fourteen innings in baseball. At this time of writing it is not known who will be the new members to receive their letter awards in track and tennis. Pep Staff The Yell Staff, through their cheer leading and song leading at pep rallies and at the various games, did much to create an enthusiastic following among the members of the student body for each Mountaneer team and thus aid materially in making possible each good showing.

Ann Henderson, captain and sharp shooting forward, starred in every game. Shirley Rogers and Marcella Jeans also played forward, Lorna Campbell, speedy side center, and Dorothy Boren, jumping center, kept the ball at our end most of the time: and Pauline Niles, Alice Miller, and Henrietta Kline. guards, held the opposing forwards down effectively. Girls' Baseball The girls have started their 1936 baseball season in an impressive manner by winning both games played so far. Our pitcher, Lois Tollum, is speedy and accurate, and Grace Guckert and Marcella Jeans very capably handle her fast balls. Ann Henderson, at first, and Jean Galbraith, at second, have turned in some sparkling fielding, Alice Miller, shortstop, and Lorna Campbell, third, are steady, reliable players: and Shirley Rogers, Dorothy Boren, and Flora Mariotto can be counted on to guard the outfield.
