WE, the staff of the 1942 Wahian, dedicate this fifteenth year book to the members of the January and June graduating classes .... Our theme, Accent on Youth , is based. on the conviction that beneath the happy-go - luckyn attitude of high school students today there is the ability to assume the larger responsibilities which they must face.

The students of this class had a high scholastic record. Many are planning to further their edu- cation at universities and colleges throughout the country. Jim Nichols received an appointment to Annapolis, many others have entered defense work. Among these are Roy Blankenhorn and Charles Wilson who have answered the call of their country. AT THE TOP OF THEIR CLASS IN SCHOLARSHIP WERE JIM COOPER, VALEDIC- TORIANg WILLIAM WEIL, SALUTATORIAN, AND JUDY WEISS, SALUTATORIAN. Their class play, June Mad, starred Catherine Page and Eddie Johnson. lirom this success, the class raised enough to buy, as their memorial, four radios to be used in the classrooms. For a time they were undecided as to Whether or not they should buy defense bonds to supply a fund for needy graduates in the future. However, they decided to buy radios. Washburn will always remember the January Class of 1942. 0 The following students were mem- bers of the National Honor Society: Lillianruth Ball, Betty Burke, Jim Cooper, Patty Culbertson, Marjorie Farnquist, Laura Haverstoclc, Kath- erine Hein, Emmy Lou Hellie, Betty Hendel, Lorraine Hill, Marilyn Jensen, Richie Johnson, Margaret Kirnpel, John Knutson, Paula Liebenburg, Chuck Lindemann, Art Lohmann, Don McGeary, Rodney McQuary, Barbara Olmsted, Virginia Piclihardt, Bob Rufsvold, Don Sandberg, Barbara J Segal, Barbara Vessey, Nvilliam Weil, Judy Weiss, Bruce Winslow, and Louise Woodhouse.
