And at perhaps no other time since we can remember, has there been in our school so much talk of blessings enjoyed in America. At our parties, on the gridiron, in the halls, and classrooms -that subject is almost always discussed. We are conscious of the fact that the conflict in which the rest of the world is involved has hardly affected our school system. Not knowing what the future holds, however, we as true Americans rever- ently and gladly present this annual in the spirit of loyalty, pride, and gratitude for freedom of as- semblage, speech, press, and religion. THE DEMOCRATIC SCHOOL Mr. L. W. Reese, Superintendent of the Washington C. H. city schools, ac- cepted a position in the Federal Secur- ity Agency as Area Recreational Super- visor for Soldiers and Sailors under the Director of Health, Welfare, and Related Defense Activities at Pensa- cola, Florida on May 7, 1941. He was superintendent of schools here for more than five years and during that time accomplished many things for the school and community. New and im- proved school buildings, equipment, and grounds were the material things he promoted, but more than that was the inspired spirit of thought and fel- lowship he installed in people. We pay him honor here for all he gave to Washington C. H. May he carry on always for the best in this land of ours. ,Q L. W. REESE, Superintendent A. B. MURRAY, Principal Very few principals have gained the loyalty, co-operation, and friendship of their pupils as has Mr. A. B. Murray, principal of Washington High School. His cheerfulness and kind understand- ing have belied the common belief that all principals are stern, heartless de- mons. He has always striven to ob- tain high standards of educational at- tainments without sacrificing the co- operative social spirit so necessary to the morale of an efficient school sys- tem. Many pupils, however, have learned to their sorrow that there is more than one way to achieve morale. But to all it is quite evident that the appointment of Mr. Murray as super- intendent of this fine school System has placed this great responsibility in capable hands. ff 1 V' V iv,- il, 1 fy, 1 , ,Adi l-f.fvff'LL ALLEN, JANET Girl's Health and Physical Education CRAMER, CLYDE General Science ,J,, In Kzl M l ,, l' 1 l BAUGHN, GOLDA Auto Mechanics English EVANS, MARJORIE Dean of Girls French, English l ,V 5 ,V , la, if lifaf' 1 ,,.. f,f,f,ffKa, rms, SUSAN qMrS.p English KELLER, ROY Mathematics 8 .

Reese has found Miss Dorothy Steffy, city school office secre- tary, a capable assistant for a number of years. The secretarial duties, being many, made it necessary for Miss Steffy to have two helpers. They were taken from the vocational commercial department. This year Norma Jean West and Lela Backenstoe were the as- sistants until the second semester when Lela Backenstoe was transferred to help Mr. O. M. Reigel in the National Defense project which is being carried on here. Miss Lela Porter has charge of the secretarial duties in the office of Principal A. B. Murray. This was the first year for Miss Porter to be employed in the office of the Principal. The vocational commercial department also supplied Miss Porter with able assistants, Marjorie Swartz and Donald Crabtree. John Aills, from the junior class, as- sisted her also. The teachers also needed typists who were supplied by the senior commercial stu- dents, not taking the vocational course. These students gained experience and were very helpful to the teachers, cutting stencils and mimeographing tests. l ! 7211 1 BOARD OF EDUCATION RAY BRANDENBURG ..... .........4... P RESIDENT HARRY E.

Through the doors of Washington High School we, approximately one hundred and thirty-five freshmen, wandered, looking for our home rooms. Soon after that first day, with Miss Davis as class adviser we elected Donald Brandenburg, president, Bill Allen, vice president, and Violet Wean, secretary-treasurer. As fresh- men we showed our talent in an assembly program by presenting scenes from TOM SAWYER and other stories. John Morton and Jacqueline Allemang, placed on the state scholarship team, and Bob Reese won the district award for his American Legion essay. Dick Durnell, Charles Spetnagle, and Ed Ruth made the varsity football team, Danny Devins, Howard Morgan, Dick Patton, Charles Sexton, and Dick Sander- son, the varsity tennis team. Many members also took part in the pageant, Ohio Through the Agesu at the fairgrounds in October. The biggest event of the year was the freshman picnic. September, 1938. In our sophomore year, Donald Brandenburg was elected presi- dent, Mary Jean Williams, vice president, and Charles Spetnagel, secretary-treasurer, with Miss Davis still our adviser. This year Jacqueline Allemang placed in English II, Harriet King and Alice Jean Merritt in Latin II, Lela Backenstoe in bookkeeping, Betty Peterson and John Fortney in geometry in the state scholarship tests at Columbus, Ohio. Donald Brandenburg and Elvis Card made the varsity basketball team, and ten boys, the varsity football team. Dick Sanderson won the district prize for his American Legion essay, THE CONSTITUTION AND WHAT IT MEANS TO ME. We had an- other picnic this year with 'tKatie', Biehn as our hostess at her cottage on the Green- field Pike. Wading, swimming, playing softball, and eating attracted our attention. September, 1939. As juniors, more responsibilities devolved upon us. With Miss Melson advisor, the officers chosen were: Bill Allen, president, Donald Brandenburg, vice president, and Lela Backenstoe, secretary-treasurer. We chose grey for our class sweaters with large, scarlet 41,s'l and small 'tw's,', also the girls, rings were of the smaller type. The valentine party was held in the new gymnasium, February 14, 1940, and many participated in the Kay Keyser radio program. Our class contributed many members to music, dramatics, and debate. Alice Jean Merritt, Jacqueline Allemang, Mary Catherine Long, Mary Jeanne Gage, and Lela Backenstoe made the state scholar- ship team. For the Junior-Senior banquet the entertainment committee had the girls and boys model costumes from the K'Gay 90,s on. As we were permitted to plan our party as we pleased, we realized how fortunate we were to be living in a country where we could plan our activities with just an adviser and not under a dictator. John Fort- ney brought honor to the class by winning the American Legion essay district prize for his essay on THE BILL OF RIGHTS-MY PROTECTION. September, 1940. We realized that we would soon have our last lesson and began to take life more seriously. With Dick Sanderson, president, Howard Morgan, vice president, Bud Fults, secretary, Lela Backenstoe, treasurer and Mrs. Fite, class adviser, we chose the staff of the Sunburst with Howard Morgan as editor. The senior Christ- mas party, like all class parties now, was held in the gymnasium and was enjoyed especially because it was to be our last class party. We won the Magazine Drive Con- test with the assistance of the freshmen and eighth graders. Bud Morton, John Fortney, Mary Alice Carson, Alice Jean Merritt, Paul Steele, Jessie Chaffin, Lela Backenstoe, Virginia Pfeifer, J. Allemang, B. Peterson, R. Frost, J. Fortney, M. Long and H. King placed in State Scholarship tests. In the State Music Contestu Betty Peterson was the only girl in the state given a superior rating as piano soloist in schools of our enrolment. The highlight of our entire high school social life was the time when we were entertained with a banquet by the juniors, who further honored us by using our class colors and flower, Johanna Hill Rose. June Madl' was chosen as our class play and directed by Mr. Obee. The play at the HSenior Assemblyl' was ably directed by Velma Canan. Of course, this entire commencement week is a thrilling event for all of us with the banquet followed by Baccalaurate service, Class Night, and the Commence- ment exercises. Having worked with the best facilities and with sympathetic and efficient teachers, no wonder we depart to serve-smiling and unafraid. -RICHARD FOGLE -MARY JEANNE GAGE CLASS OF FORTY T 'S Adams, Adkins, Aills, Alkire, Andrews, Andrews, Annon, Armbrust Armbrust, Arnold, Ashley, Babbitt, Bailey, Baker, Barney, Beatty I f 'N y. .

ALLEN DURNELL MARK McKINNEY REESE x , --X ,. ri X l ' ii' 0 Xt W D' vw: fx- 1 FOOTBALL A gallant bunch of Blue Lion footballers, last September 13, started the toughest schedule faced by a Washington team in many a year. There was no championship made by this 1940 team, but the down-town coaches seemed pretty well satisfied. The team, while playing a tough nine-game schedule, came through with only one score to mar their record. Hillsboro's keyed up Indians trampled the Blue Lions 12 to 0 under their dimly lighted field. Washington football players were again very proud to have at their helm Coach Steve Shay and assistant Charles Milligan. Since Coach Shay has been at Washington, his RENO SPETNAGEL VINCENT WILT WYATT PATTON M wa 1: sg teams have won a total of fourteen games, losing seven and tying five. The last two years, after the boys had learned Coach Shay's system, his teams have lost but two games. Washington played in two leagues this year. The South Central League and the Central Buckeye League. Washington lost one game in the S, C. L. and didn't drop a game in the C. B. L. But on account of the schedule difficulty in the new league, Wash- ington was nosed out by Bexley, who had played two more games than Washington. In the game of the year, Bexley came to Washington, undefeated. untied, and un- scored against. They came down to cinch the C. B. L., and to close a very successful season by trouncing the Blue Lions. But Washington held Bexleys high scoring ma-- chine to a 0 to 0 tie and sent a very sorrowful Bexley crew home with their mythical championship shattered. The Lions in their victory march also knocked oft' Chillicothe-this feat being achieved by Washington for the first time in a decade. GRIDDERS OF THE GRIDIRON Dick Patton was always in there Hscrappingv as guard on the squad the past three years. Bill McKinney, guard and center for the Blue Lions, was one of the toughest defense men on this year's squad. John Wyatt, a first-year man, really came through as an end this year. Jack Reno, honorary co-captain and three-letterman, was the tough- est blocking half in many a decade for the Blue Lions. Dale Vincent, also co-captain, two-letterman, driving tackler, was honored on the L'Columhus Citizen first Central Buckeye team. Bill Allen got his chance this year and took over Corky lVIcCoy,s end position. Two-letterman Tommy Mark, a steady tough player, could really play up the center of the line. Marlyn Wilt, a first year man, proved to be an alert guard. Charles Spetnagel, passer de luxe, a fine runner, and two-letterman, was placed on the South Central and HColumbus Dispatchv first team in the backfield. He was also given hon- orable mention as Associated Press ALL-STATE. Dick Durnell, two-letterman, hard driving fullback, was a Upile 'em up line backer. Bob Reese, a three-letterman, called the plays the last two years. He was honored by being placed on the g'Columbus Dis- patch Central Buckeye first string and tackle on the t'Associated Pressw All-State sec- ond team.

BASKETBALL Although the Blue Lions of Washington had only a fair season, they accomplished a great feat, a feat that a Washington baskeball team had never before been able to do. This same Washington team that played just average ball during the regular season went to Delaware to participate, as usual, in the Central District Tournament. They were rated by Columbus sports writers as not even a dark horsef' Tournament fans opened their eyes a little, though, when the Lions firmly trounced Westerville 49 to 23 in their first game. But they lazily yawned that Upper Arlington would have little trouble in downing the f'Court-Housers the next night. Upper Arling- ton was a strong favorite after they defeated Bexley, but had a great surprise coming the next night. Then came the quarter-finals, when the tournament dopesters became the dopes. A highly inspired Washington team, playing their hearts out for a sick teammate, Bob Sexton, who was at home unable to play, defeated the highly touted Upper Arlington team 34 to 28. This win advanced the Lions to the semi-finals, the highest mark ever reached by a Washington Court House team. The Lions met a fast and tricky Columbus Aquinas team in the semi-finals. After a hard fought game, Aquinas barged ahead in the second half to win. Jack Reno, classy Blue Lion guard, was selected on the coach's all-tournament sec- ond team. He was also selected on the Central Buckeye first team, Jim Alkire, Lion forward, was selected on the C. B. L. second team. The forgotten man, the coach, should be praised very highly for the great showing the Blue Lions made. Charles Milligan brought a team on the floor of which all Wash- ington was proud - a team that was acclaimed by fans and sports writers as the best ball handling team in the tournament. As the boys handed in their uniforms, Jack Reno and Bob Reese were elected hon- orary co-captains. Other seniors who will be missed next year are Bob Sexton, Dick Sanderson, Charles Spetnagel, Russell Hatfield, and Daniel Devins. RESERVE BASKETBALL Though the varsity games started at 8:00, the gym was always filled by seveng the reason being that the reserve's game started at seven. Though the reserves won but eight while losing ten, the crowd liked their snap, their spirit, and their ability. The only thing the boys lacked was experience. It was again Coach Shay at the helm, who brought out a fighting team on the floor every game. The boys hated to lose, and when they got more experience toward the end of the season, they had a team hard to beat. Co-operation was the key-note between the varsity and reserves. A fine spirit among the players on and off the Hoor prevailed at all times. The defeat of Greenfield McClain, in both games this season C26 to 13 and 36 to 155 was undoubtedly the highlight of the season.

COURT-SERVERS With two lettermen returning from the championship team of last year the Wash- ington High School tennis team, coached by Mr. Taylor, completed a twelve-match schedule with schools throughout central Ohio this year. In the fall a large number of boys reported for practice. This spring nineteen lads reported for the initial drills in the gymnasium early in March. Stiff opposition was furnished by Bexley, Portsmouth, and Lancaster. Among other activities of the tennis squad were bi-Weekly meetings at the homes of the various members of the team. This was the first year this plan had been tried, and it was a pronounced success. Dick Sanderson and Loring Brock were the return- ing lettermen, While also in the experienced class were John Fortney, Bill Hastings and Phil Douglas. Other members were Harper, Buchanan, Babbitt, Devins, Briggs, Heath, Williams, Shoemaker, S. Kellough, Kinzer, Craig, J. Robinson, and Patton. CINDER-GRINDERS When the initial call for track prospects was made by Coach Charles Milligan this spring, the return of such reliables as Beatty, Callender, Robinson, Bowers, Grimm, Pope, Wackman, McCoy, Vincent, Lanum, and Anderson, plus several new faces, made up for the loss of graduates. Meets were held with Greenfield, Frankfort, Chillicothe, Wil- mington, Dayton Oakwood, Columbus, Academy, Lancaster, and Delaware. Both the Central Buckeye and the South Central League meets were on the slate. DIAMOND-CUTTERS For the first time in many a year the Blue Lion baseball team took the field with seven seniors on the starting roster. This group of Lions has grown from a cub four years ago to a large roaring lion this year. The squad will take the field adorned in new red, white, and blue uniforms, which were purchased through the efforts of Coach Shay and team when they put on with great success a boxing tournament.

GRIDIRON JUNIORS Football hit Washington High School with a bang again this year. Running right along with its big brother, the Varsity, was the Junior High who displayed a very snappy and aggressive outfit, The Cubs broke even in four games this year. After be- in beaten by Chillicothe West Fifth, and Wilmington, the Juniors came back and won over the Hurricanes and Chillicothe Mt. Logan. The team was coached by Clyde B. Cramer, and captained by Bill Rudduck, who was also quarterback. Blowing our own horns, you say? Yes, that's what we were there for! Anyway-the f o rty - t w o piece band, under the very capable new director, Mr. Paul Fitzwater, par- ticipated at all local and most of the out-of-town football games. The band also played for a politi- cal ox-roast, a number of parades, and three days at the County Fair. Q5 gt gsbg ,,,,, Q aff 'ffnlieftil UPPER PICTURE-Orchestra: MIDDLE PICTURE-Choir: LOWER PICTURE-Double Trio CONCERT MUSICIANS The orchestra has been somewhat hampered this year, because of too few 'ifiddlesf' However, Mr. Fitzwater is earnestly endeavoring to build it up, and has made a marked improvement. 1 w THE CHORUS Students interested in vocal work attend chorus classes during the third and fourth periods on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, consisting of freshmen, sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors. The music that is used in the classes is of a varied nature, so as to acquaint th-e student with a variety of types of music. Attempts are made throughout the year to develop the singing of parts Various members of the classes are selected to sing in the concert choir, which consists of thirty-six members. Two vocal classes and the concert choir were combined this Spring when they presented a most interesting program, A Musical Panorama of America. HJ UNE MAD June Mad, the Senior Class play, was given in the Washington High School audi- torium on May 2, to a large and appreciative audience. 'iln the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love. Only in this case it is a girl, Penny Wood, who is just a little June mad. This play, written by the well-known team, Florence Ryerson and Colin Clements, is the story of Penny Wood and Chuck Harris as they go about the extremely dif- ficult business of growing up. Penny Uacqueline Allemangj like any average fifteen-year-old, had her emotions mixed up. Part of her wanted to remain a tomboy and go fishing, while another part wanted to grow up and be beautiful. Chuck CDick Pattonb was the neighborhood chum with whom she grew up, but when sophisticated Roger came from college with her Uncle Mervyn things began to happen. Penny was skillfully guided through this period by her sympathetic and understanding parents, Dr. and Mrs. Wood. HJune Mad was a delightful, sparkling comedy that appealed to all ages and is one of the best plays given in the history of the Senior class. The supporting cast deserves credit for the splendid performances given. The play reflected the inspirational and effective in- struction of the director, Mr. F. L. Obee.

'mf K 'J' WY HWHAT A LIFEW Plays may come and plays may go but for many, many years, 'iWhat a Life starring Charles CBudb Rhoads as Henry Aldrich, and presented by the Junior class on Friday, November 29, will be remembered as one of the best class plays ever given in Washington High School. Playing before a capacity audience, Rhoads' stage voice was almost identical with that of Henry Aldrich of radio fame. But then-his support- ing cast made him look to his laurels. Taking place in the scholarly confines of a principal's office, NWhat a Lifett by Clifford Goldsmith gave the Juniors something more in their own line than most plays. Constantly involved in scrapes and the like, Henry finally came through to take his heart interest, cute Barbara Pearson CEleanor Slaglej, to the spring dance. Woodward Paul, as George Bigelow, was Henry's pet peeve. Eddie McCoy was the cigar-smoking detective. Other love interests centered around Miss Shen CArthella Lewisj, and Mr. Nelson, played by Dick Powell. John Babbit portrayed Mr. Patterson and June Montgomery portrayed Miss Pike, Ruth Wyatt, Miss Eggleston, Roma Roush, Miss Johnson, as teachers, and Mr. Bradley, the principal CCharles Callenderb, Miss Wheel- er, the music supervisor, CAnn Robinsonj. Mr. Vecchetto, played by Jim Miller brought many laughs. Students were Bill CBob Westj, Gertie CWilma Garringerj, and Carolyn Brandon, Florence and Frances Cook. Elizabeth Andrews played Mrs. Aldrich, Henry's mother. Verne B. Wootton, deserving of some of the traditional roses handed out, directed the vehicle. WORD COMBATERS Our debate teams took the district championship cup at Columbus this year which Washington High School had not done in undisputed fashion since 1931. Columbus East, Portsmouth, Lancaster, and Delaware Willis High Schools were defeated by Washing- ton High School in the district tournament. No losses were suffered by Washington in league competition. During the first semester, the negative and affirmative teams participated in ninety inter-scholastic practice debates, under the supervision of Mr. F. L. Obee, debate coach. Members of the class attended the Ohio High School Speech League Clinic at Ohio State University in December. Three of the four varsity de- baters were first year debaters. Eighteen reserve debaters, were initiated into the Na- tional Forensic League in May. HTHE FLATTERING WORD 'fThe Flattering Word, written by George Kelly was presented by Washington High School students, took second place in the one-act play contest at Portsmouth on Friday night, March 14. The judges especially commended Velma Canan and Virginia White on their acting. The play was presented to the student body the day before the final presentation, under the direction of Verne B, Wootton. Portsmouth, Lancaster, and Bain- bridge were the other contestants in the one-act play contest.

SENIOR GIRL RESERVES The year of 1940-41 has been a full year for the Senior Girl Reserves, composed of the juniors and seniors in the school. As regular meetings were handled by the girls themselves, the programs were varied and interesting. Some of the topics were stunt night, 'ibeauty hintsf' 'Ldramaticsf' music,', and personality, besides such seasonal meetings as Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Valentine Day. The girls entertained the Greenfield and Hillsboro Girl Reserves, their escorts. and the Womenfs Council at a formal Christmas dance. In the spring, the Girl Reserves party which was decorated with a farm motif, the guests complying by Wearing overalls and gay print dresses. During the course of the year one week is set aside for Girl Reserve Week. This year the girls presented an assembly program with Mrs. Mary Cartwright as guest speaker. On Sunday of that week the girls attended church in a body. For Mother's Day the girls had a banquet for their mothers and the Women's Council. For Father's Day, each girl did something special for her father. The last day was 'Lat home day when the girls remained at home with the family. Under the guidance of their adviser, Miss Marjorie Evans and assistant, Miss Helen King, the girls also sponsored dances, operated a refreshment stand at the football games, gave a Christmas party for needy children, and as the last get-together of the year, they entertained the Senior class members of the club with a breakfast. SENIOR HI-Y Behind their symbol of the cross within the triangle, forty members of the senior Hi-Y stood together throughout the year to create, maintain, and extend through the high school and community high standards of Christian characterfl In order to further this purpose the club took on a new life with interesting weekly meetings. Another new step forward was the inauguration of the Father and Son Ban- quet. With the famous humorist, Dusty Miller, as speaker, the banquet was considered one of the best events on the year's program, Program Chairman Henry Crouse ar- ranged a new and original program for every meeting by presenting speakers from almost every profession and vocation to talk about their jobs. However, round table discus- sions among the members themselves and such athletic contests as the Hi-Y tourna- ment added a change to the routine. The Hi-Y club joined hands with the YMCA in bringing complete Christmasses' to needy families throughout the city. The annual Hi-Y Sweetheart formal banquet, the event every Hi-Y member land his girlj looks forward to throughout the year, was held in the beautifully decorated gymnasium with dancing filling out the evening's entertainment. Much of the credit for the unusual success of the Hi-Y club this year goes to the untiring efforts of faculty adviser, Mr. H. C. Taylor, and the club officers President, Bob Sextong Vice President, Howard Morgan: Secretary, Charles Spetnagelg Treasurer, Dick Sanderson: Program chairman. Henry Crouse: and Chaplain. Tommy lVIark. Z NEQWNY Q L ti' F. H. A. The purpose of the Future Homemakers' Association with Miss Oviatt as leader is to set up an educational program which places emphasis on development of the high school girl's ability to solve her home, school, and community problems. The F. H. A. club made an enjoyable trip to Lynchburg to the Regional Conference. An amateur program was given before the assembly at Easter. For the first time in Washington, F. H. A. third degree honors were conferred on Betty Kelley and Mae Bowen. The jubilee was the largest event to occur in the F. H. A. year with seventeen schools participating. Millicent Morris and Roberta Dixon were the only girls who were granted the fourth degree. PHI EPSILON The Latin Club is organized each year for all second-year Latin students interested in getting a broader view of the Latin language. The club holds regular meetings and interesting programs are presented under the direction of Miss Kathleen Davis, the club adviser. At regular meetings the program usually includes reports pertaining to Latin, a Latin play, and a Latin contest. Refreshments are also served at the close of the meet- ings. Phi Epsilon, which means in Greek Let there be light, was the club name chosen in the fall of 1940. The officers of the Latin Club are: President, Bob Alleng Vice President, Dotty Mc- Ginnis, Secretary, Lloyd Fennigg and Treasurer, Rollo Marchant, Jr., and Miss Kathleen Davis, Adviser. BOYS' CONSERVATION CLUB Under the able direction of Coach Milligan the Boy's Conservation Club enjoyed a very successful year in the various activities which were carried on by the club. The highlight of the season was the annual game supper at which the members of the Girls' Conservation Club were the honored guests. During the month of October the club took a field trip to Urbana, Ohio, where a study of the northern bogs was made. Other activities carried on were the building of feeding shelters, distribution of pheasants and rabbits, and the construction of a dam on the Ohio Wesleyan University farm. GIRLS' CONSERVATION CLUB The Girls, Conservation Club was formed April 1, 1940. It consists of eighteen mem- bers and our competent adviser, Miss Janet Allen. The club was organized by girls interested in the preservation of natural resources. We have gone on a week-end camping trip, three field trips, picnics, a bicycle hike, and have had several luncheon meetings in the high school building. We had an exhibit at the County Fair this year and planned an exhibit for the April meeting of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Our club is the only active girls' club in the state of Ohio.

Obee in September, 1939. The first year student journalists wrote over four hundred stories to keep the public informed about school activities. These four hundred stories were written for local newspapers, and approximately as many were written this year. Fourteen students, including six seniors, four juniors, and four sophomores, constitute the News Bureau, which has Bob Reese, a senior, as its student head. It is operated along the line of many other large high school and college news bureaus. Each spring the group takes a trip to one of the near- by large cities, where points of interest to journalism students are visited. These include metropolitan newspapers and broadcasting studios. This spring each member of the News Bureau spent one-half day each six weeks period at the Record-Herald and the Fayette Times doing actual newspaper work. ALLIED YOUTH Allied Youth is a nation-wide organization to help the youth to understand better the alcohol problem in the schools. Our purpose is to stand for the liberation through education of the individual and society from the handicaps of the beverage alcohol. This club's general headquarters is in Washington, D. C. The Allied Youth, Inc., prepares and distributes literature, which includes our monthly magazine, the Allied Youth Bul- letin, and other publications. This information serves the library and serves as an ex- tensive program for equipping youth with dependable facts and high motives of con- duct and activity. Washington High School has its Allied Youth charter, and through the efforts of our sponsor, Mr. Steve Shay, we have a membership of forty charter mem- bers. ART CLUB A newly organized club of the high school is the Artists' Club which was created for the purpose of giving interested students further training in art. The Art Club, com- posed of fifteen members, meets in the art room every two weeks on Thursday night. A student may work in any medium that he chooses, such as, oils, pastel, water color, charcoal, or pencil. The officers elected for the year were: Jean Mallow, President, How- ard Morgan, Vice President, Eleanor Hook, Secretary, and Bud Fults, Treasurer. SCIENCE CLUB Under the sponsorship of Mr. Kay, our science instructor, the Science Club was formed with twenty-eight members enrolling. The purpose of the club was to permit students interested in science to perform experiments which they did not have time for during regular class periods. Many very interesting experiments were performed, most of them successfully. Some of the more interesting ones were the liquefying of gases, constructing thermometers, and the making of vanishing cream. The officers elected were: Bill Allen, President, Loring Brock, Vice President, and Margaret Wade, Secre- tary-Treasurer. The members of our club feel that something of real value has been accomplished. FUTURE TEACHERS Future Teachers of America, sponsored by the National Education Association and its affiliated state and local associations, is a high school organization with a program of activities through which young people can prepare to take their part in professional and civic enterprises. Washington High School holds the distinction of having the second charter that was granted in this state, our charter having been renewed three times. The meetings, which are held the first and third Friday of each month at noon include such discussions as democracy, health, morals, personality, colleges, leadership and ethics for teachers. Our club, sponsored by Mr. Durkee, who is a proficient teacher well versed in these subjects, has had a particularly profitable and interesting year. LIBRARY STAFF When students came back to school last fall, they found the school library com- pletely remodeled. In fact an entirely new system for securing books had been developed under the direction of Mr. F. L. Obee, faculty librarian. The librarians number twenty- four, four of whom are busy each period. Betty Haines was appointed head student librarian. New books have been added to the library, including many popular books and novels of the day, until the library contains some 4,600 books, some of which are valuable. The library also subscribes to about fifty newspapers and magazines. The librarians not only aided students in securing the books but assisted them in looking up references. Thus practical experience was given to students interested in library work. G. A. A. The Girls' Athletic Association, created to encourage intra-mural sports and games among girls, accomplished much under the supervision of Miss Janet Allen. The school year began with a gymnasium jamboree. The party and short meeting made it possible for the new girls to learn the purpose of the club. In November the G. A. A. sponsored a very successful Thanksgiving dance in the gymnasium. Later the club was invited to Greenfield for a Play Day. Games and sports were enjoyed and our club came out on top in the contests. The annual Mother and Daughter Banquet was held May 9, in the Sunnyside audi- torium, thus ending a successful G. A. A. year. COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club was organized in 1938 and has completed three successful and interesting years, under the direction of Miss Gladys Melson, Miss Margaret Schneider, and Miss Helen King, commercial instructors. The purpose of the club is to give the students more information on problems con- cerning commercial work. One very interesting program of this year was the program in which a number of former graduates took part. These graduates told of their experiences in the busi- ness World. Another highlight of this year's activities was an observation trip visiting offices of manufacturing plants in Cincinnati and Dayton. The officers are: Margaret Shepard, President, Gladys Hooks, Vice President, Betty Saum, Secretary-Treasurer, Johnny Aills, Publicity. it 4 'iw-if 235' X E' 51 -5 05' f Q-ug! - M Qv and W 3 x , . . f. .J X 3 as .W , J- li .5 ,Q, JUNIOR GIRL RESERVES The Junior Girl Reserve club, composed of the freshmen and sophomores in the high school, conducted their meetings in much the same way that the senior club conducted theirs. The junior club's topics included 'gstunt night, Hmusicf' 'ibeauty hints, voca- tions,', and religion The program also included an impressive candle lighting service to induct new members into the club. The junior club with the senior club gave a formal Christmas Dance and also a ban- quet in honor of their mothers and council members during Girl Reserve Week. In the spring the girls presented the annual Girl Reserve party for their 'tboy-friends with a farm motif in decoration and dress. Among other enterprises the girls have un- dertaken are a Christmas party for the needy children, an assembly program, refresh- ment stand at the football games, and the sponsoring of dances. To end the year with the unselfish and loving Girl Reserve spirit, the girls gave a breakfast in honor of the Girl Reserves who were in the senior class. All these activities were made possible through their officers and the adviser, Miss Marjorie Evans and her assistant, Miss Helen King. LEADERS CLUB-FRONT ROW-Wilson, McDonald, Merritt, Mallow, Mark, Kaufman, Sheppard, Williams: SECOND ROW--Frost, Ashley, Sexton, Allen, Bonnie, Reese, Shoults, San- derson: BACK ROW-Fogle, Parker, Allen. LEADERS' CLUB The Leaders' Club holds its meetings for the purpose of guidance and discussion of school policies and activities. Each organization in the school is represented by its presidentg the football and bas- ketball teams being represented by their co-captains. Superintendent L. W. Reese and Principal A. B. Murray called the meetings when- ever they thought it necessary. Luncheon meetings, held in the high school cafeteria, were especially interesting and profitable, since these officers were truly leaders and representative students. JUNIOR HI-Y In this second year of its history the Washington Junior Hi-Y set an enviable record as the little brothersn of the Hi-Y club. Forty freshmen and sophomore boys were included in the membership under the leadership of their president, Bob Alleng vice president, Ronald Morgang treasurer, David Elliesg faculty adviser, Mr. Milligan. Regular meetings were held, with local business men as guest speakers. A stunt night also was included in the program this year, The banquet, in honor of the 1941 edition of the Blue Lion basketball team was held in the gymnasium. Also included in the money-making department was the sell- ing of the blue and white emblems, which literally Hfloodedi' the high school, Among the spring activities of the club were the picnic, which honored Msweetheartsf' and a retreat-for the initiation of new members. ANNUAL STAFF The 1941 Sunburst Staff was selected early in October and increased in size as help was needed. The complete staff including all those who gave their services in one way or another, consisted of the following students: editor, Howard Morgan, writers, Nina Belle Huff, Mary Jean Gage, Thomas Mark, John Morton, Betty Peterson, Robert Reese, Charles Spetnagleg typists, Virginia Pfeifer and Geraldine Bushg business man- ager and his assistants, Donald Brandenburg, Robert Frost, Richard Pattong artists, those who mounted photos, planned layouts, air brushed drawings, made cartoons and designs, Bud Fults, Jean Mallow, Eleanor Hook, Paul Smalley, John Rhoads, Richard Durnell, Russell Hatfield and Billy Ashleyg photographers, Orville Whaley, William Hart and Harry Hidy, and photography class members. Soon after the selection of the main staff a meeting was held to choose the cover for the Sunburst, After some deliberation the present cover was chosen as it was a modern design fitting a democratic theme. At the National Scholastic Press Association Convention in Cleveland, November 28, f29, and 30 there were many members present from high school annuals in the nation including the Sunburst All members of the staff must be given credit for their best efforts and good work.

Youth's failure to learn to think quickly and decide little things leave him stranded on the rocks when ques- tions of vital importance demand solution. Training the mind to think justly and speedily and then to act with promptness and discretion has been the hope and stay of those who have been called upon to face a crisis. In our business we must think quickly. With the interests of our patrons at heart, it is always important to know when and what to buy, and as a consequence our store contains only those things of genuine worth and real value.
