You may be actually years older, but never mentally until you stop and say, l'm old! and count the gray hairs in your head. And when you do that you will probably be- gin to think back at the fun you had in high school, and then later, living that fu- ture of yours to which we have dedicated this Annual. Because even in a few years you might not be able to remember all the people who are a part of your life now, we have filled this book with pictures and words that will remind you of the ways in which West Seattle-its students, teachers, classes and activities-has helped to build for your tomorrow. So it is to your future we dedicate this Annual, hoping that you will find happiness and that your life will be your dehnition of success. lb X N 5 X BN N my ll 3 SY x, 51 1 Y 1 Q3 bv lx ,J 4 B , K 'E xx N ls- Wwy W g?

V ' n e -ir ' ,W I ' ln l9I7, when the pupils and teachers moved from Lafayette to the new building opposite Hiawatha playfield, there Wasn't much enthusiasm. There was a war and the students were thinking more about it than their books. West Seattle was an expensive building-because of the time it was built, and the fact that the bricks cost so much. But the building was new, it was modern, and it was beau- tiful. Then the building had a brightness and a look of something untriedg today there is mellowness and understanding. Where there was once no ivy, ivy climbsg there are dips in stairs that were once even and straightg the paint has faded some. Where there is lawn, there was once none. So it is: our school is older and more beloved each year. 1 v a 4 'I' J ' 'id 1 ,-K f I I 0, I There's a friendly place down by IVIr. FuIton's office, and We think of it as where We go when we haven't made the right grades or taken the necessary sub- jects andfsomething must be done about itg or maybe We remember it for the time our program got mixed up, and it had to be corrected. And then there was the time We Wanted to know about possible scholarships or jobs. We Went to the friend- Iy place, the Counselors' Office. The people there are the most friendly partg they try to guide us toward more sane approaches to our problems and to adult accept- ance of jobs and college. There is no problem too large or small that a student cannot take to his counselor. Under the sponsorship of Dr. Nylen, counseling started here about six years ago. Since then there has been a regular service dedicated to student guidance. Included in this department are the senior rating sheets, the forums for compo- sition IV students about jobs for after graduation, and contacts with The junior Employment Bureau. Besides this, there is also constant supervision of underclass- men in order that they may be able to make correct social adjustment to their classes and school life. It is through our counselors that many straggly ends are picked up and rough places smoothed over. MISS CLARK MISS BABCOCK MR. KIMBALL MISS DUNN MR.

His features were regular. I-Iis eyes were keen. An agreeable smile spread over his face. Tell me, Bill, inquired the counselor, With all your ambition, why aren't you getting along faster? What do you want to be? That's it! I don't know. I didn't find out when I was in school. Was that the fault of the school? asked the counselor. No-o-,H said Bill. When I was in school I never did any serious thinking about my future. I guess I figured that tomorrow would take care of itself. I was too busy having a good time. Do you think it's too late for me now? Not too late, Bill, but you have marked time for ten years. With your intel- ligence and your personality you could have begun your climb upward years ago. You build your future much as a house is erected. Your teachers and parents are like consulting engineers or architects. But no house was ever built Without action. You must make the blueprintsg you must buy the Iumberg you must start building -not tomorrow, but today. But what shall I build? Build a life of service along lines Where your talents lie. In your case, use your ability to get acquainted with people and your natural optimism. You've had experience in selling. Selling is a great Held. Study the possibility of making an expert salesman of yourself. 4 A look which mingled hope and regret spread over Bill's face: Tell the high school pupils for me not to neglect, as I did, building for tomorrow. -Reed Fulton. The teachers' boxes are on one side, the switchboard, desks, typewriters, telephone and files behind the main desk, on the other. There is a hum of activ- ity. This is the office where pro- grams, grades, and school busi- ness are kept. Miss Henson, head clerk, is a recent addition to West Seattle's force, having replaced Mrs. Cady last January. Assist- ed by Miss Moore and various students, she keeps the mech- anism of the school running smoothly. Mfuliaqeil Manage Friendliness, faith, creation are leagued against Warfare, distrust, and destruction for the control of our future. Against a world dominated by dread and death every healthy hope revolts. Cur belief in progress and purpose rejects such a World. Revolt and rejection are not enough. A World Worthy of our power to build, a world Worth building for demands: Imagination. Cooperative Effort. A more equal distribution of Work, play, health, opportunity, trained capac- ities, useful habits. Hail, Builders! TO VVORK! -A. Lyle Kaye. 'H 'L s,..h NIISS MOORE NIFKS. CADY MISS MCKENZIE MRS. CHANIBEFILEN Correct English, both written and oral, is a tool that all of us must be able to use effectively, whether we are building for a future in the world of science, commerce, or art. That is why our English department has given us, in addition to composition and literature classes, courses fitted for special needs. There are classes in the tech- nique of radio broadcasting, news Writing, public speaking, dramatics, and other topics. By taking a foreign language We acquire a better understanding of the people of other na- tions, and that is an essential fundamental in MISS BABCOCK MISS CULVER NIR.

Whether we become chemists, doctors, engineers, or housewives, a knowledge of scientific prin- ciples is essential. For this reason what we learn in the science classes and laboratories at West Seattle will some day make us bet- ter fitted in solving the problems of the fu- ture. Those of us who have puzzled over the contents of test tubes, struggled with electrical phenomena, or worked in the bot- any garden, have truly applied what we've learned from our textbooks. Field trips in photography, botany, and Zoology have sup- plemented our knowledge gained from text- books. For those who are interested in a future in science, the courses offered will serve well as a foundation for later study. Physical Education classes to Ht the needs and likes of everyone are a definite part of West Seattle curriculum. Instruction and participation and almost every type of sport is offered, and for those with special needs, courses in individual gym are conducted. ln the Health Education classes we learn more specifically about the body parts and how to take care of them. MISS MUNSON MISS WATERS MH DOTY MR. MURPHY MISS MAGOON MR. HAYS NIR. BRINK . MISS CLARK MRS COOPER MISS FORD We get much of value from the social sciences. Studying and interpreting the ex- periences of individuals, peoples, and nations in the past, We gain knowledge to aid us in charting our lives as individuals and as mem- bers of a great democracy. Qur history classes have followed the lat- est trends. No more is history largely a mat- ter of memorizing dates. We discuss the political and economic situations to see all sides of any controversial issue. Panel and class discussion, library research, and field trips help to attain this end. l-low much more interesting to learn gov- ernment, not just from textbooks, but sup- plemented by visits to council committee meetings, the superior court, and the im- migration station! ln january, groups of his- tory students made excursions to Olympia to visit the State Legislature in session. MR. FRAME, D MR. LISTON MR. ROWE NHSS KRAUS MISS BLALOCK 4' , X ig'-'J sg 1 Every year a large percentage of the graduating students has completed a commercial major or have taken some commercial subject as an elective. A large majority of these will, undoubtedly, enter the business world, but those who do not will also benefit from these classes. Most of them will have homes of their own and will be able to run them more smoothly and efficiently as a result of the training in budgeting they receive in bookkeeping or junior business training classes. Others will go to the University and will be able to put to good use their knowledge of typing and shorthand. Some even earn part of their way through college by doing this work for others. Those who have decided on a career in the business world will, if they have satisfactorily completed their courses in typing, stenog- raphy, and office practice, have enough knowledge to hold a posi- tion without further training. Those who wish further training, however, will find that their new studies will require less work and will be easier as a result of their high school background. Classes that offer special training in the commercial use of English, arithmetic, geography and law are also a part of the Com- mercial Department as well as such classes as buymanship and sales- manship.

G-OSS MISS DONOLDSON An ability to appreciate music and to see what is artistic in life is an asset. The Music and Art De- partments provide courses for stu- dents with this in mind as well as courses designed for those who are preparing for a life work in music or art. Clothing, Household Manage- ment, Foods, and other phases of work associated with the home are emphasized in the Home Econom- ics Department. Z 5 . '4 MISS ALLEN MISS BACHMANN hdqand Rezseafwh IVIRS. DAVENPORT MR. LOGAN There is nothing more valuable for a person to have now, and in the future, than an ability for him to use his power of concentration to its fullest extent. Intel- ligent use of study time is of great importance in developing this power, and as a result, a person has an opportunity to get the most information from his subjects. In the library, there is the same opportunity coupled with a chance for each student to widen his reading field by a discriminating choice of literature. Here, under the guidance of the librarians, one can follow up daily and term assignments. Here one can read for relaxation. MISS LANE Sildeni Uouncil. Betty Schaefer, President Fall Semester Roll Representative Meeting 'vu Steve Ellis, President, Spring Semester The Student Council is our rep iesentative body and is closely asso- ciated with the Boys' and Girls' clubs in directing West Seattle's self-gov- ernment. Through this group the students have an opportunity to offer their solutions to current school problems. If one is not directly a member of the Student Council he has a chance to express himself at the forum dis- cussions sponsored by this organization. These discussions have often de- veloped into full time, student-directed drivesg for example, there were the anti-noise campaign, the clean-up, paper and the Red Cross drives. ln all cases, the decisions have been the students', and the organiza- tion and management of the tasks undertaken have thoroughly tested each person's capabilities. For these reasons, Student Council is a really impor- tant part of the school in Building for Your Future. Fall Semester's Student Council Officers: Spring Semester's Student Council Officers Betty Schaefer, President Steve Ellis, President Herb Voigt, Vice President Stafford Bingham, Vice President Art Susumi, Secretary Patsy Patrick, Secretary MISS CHILBERC Girls' Advisor mrmeem em The future begins now. On this Very day you are placing a stone in your build- ing for the future. Who knows but it may be the keystone in your castle of dreams? Upon it may depend the security and beau- ty of the entire structure. Choose it wise- ly, place it carefully, taking thought of your plan and vision, that it may become part of a strong and beautiful foundation for that which you build tomorrow, next week, next year and in all the years to come.

GIRLS' CLUB OFFICERS Louise North, Vice President Betty Hough, Recording Secretary ,Ioan Peters, Eleanor Johnson, Treasurer Doris jean Behymer, President Corresponding Secretary The educated person, they say, is one who knows some- thing about everything and everything about something. This means that he has at least a nodding acquaintance with many subjects, and has made himself a specialist in one line. Notice we say-'has made himself'--, and I think advisedly, for the process of becoming educated does not consist in being spoon fed. You can establish prestige for yourself by successfully do- ing things. There is a relationship between being a good cashier in the lunchroom and becoming a cashier in a bankg there is a relationship between being in charge of ticket sales and head of a department in Penney'sg there is a relationship between keep- ing score at athletic contests and being a reporter for a large newspaperg there is a relationship between working in our en- gine room and being a mechanicg there is a relationship between being a model aeroplane builder and working at Boeing'sg there is a relationship between being a debater and becoming a mem- ber of our state legislature. How are you gaining prestige or giving yourself background? E. J. L1sToN.

For another year the GirIs' CIub has pIayed a constructive part in buiIding toward the future of each girI who has done work in this de- partment. I-Iere the officers, com- mittee heads, and the girls who voI- unteered to help in various groups have applied their abiIities to work together. It is through Work of this nature that a girI can acquire poise, and, especially so after she has suc- cessfully planned a special assem- bly, one of the Iarge teas or ban- quets, or seen that a drive, such as those for sIeep and creeds, has been completed. Throughout I940-I 941 the Girls' CIub has Worked cIoseIy with the Boys' Club in organizing the school year. Under the aus- pices of both groups, we have heard many weII known speakers Whose subjects were of great interest to each of us. Besides this, the Girls' Club has worked in cooperation with the American Red Cross by organizing a knitting group which furnished many sweaters for reIief of the needy. It is in GirIs' CIub Work that We find the Ieaders and potentiaI Ieaders of West Seattle High.

It is to this part of our school that we owe special praise for the peppiest pep assemblies in the city. To the War- riors and the Transportation Com- mittee We extend thanks for seeing that our Thanksgiving and Christ- mas baskets Were distributed. We are especially grateful to the latter group, because it not only worked at regular times, but was of service to the school throughout the year. Other groups included in the Boys' Club are the Athletic Coun- cil, Athletic-Scholastic Committee, Thursday Morning Club, Yell Squad Cresponsible for the excel- lent assemblies and the cheer lead- ing at the gamesl, Projector Com- mittee, Which was of great use to West Seattle classes--Safety, Pa- trol, Warriors and other groups which prepared special programs and banquets. A fairly successful attempt has been made to organize an interschool Boys' Club in order that the various schools might work more together.

BOYS' AND GIRLS' CLUBS In the Boys' and Ctirls' Clubs there are many members who have been contributing their share toward a better West Seattle and brighter futures for themselves. As a part of the Administration Department of the Girls' Club come reception work in the Apartment, attending to clerical duties, assisting the nurse, looking after the election, installa- tion, Iibrary, the Arrow and the Scrapbook. Here, also, are the jun- ior Hostess and the extension com- mittees. Under the Entertainment Department are sub-departments, which take care of refreshments, fa- vors, invitations, decorations, mu- sic and programs, and special ban- quets and teas. Included in this is the Party Bureau. In the Social Service Department we find girls who are interested in home-making and helping those besides them- selves. The Needleites, jack of AII Trades, School Service, Tillicums, and the Tinfoil and Friendship Com- mittees are part of this. The Charm Club, Personality, I-Iealth and Standards Committees are placed in the Personal Efficiency Department. Probably the most important group, however, is the Vocational Department which includes the IVIusic Club, Foreign Correspond- ence, Cultural Arts, Vocational Tours and Conferences, and Flower Arrangement groups. As for the Boys' Club, we could hardly overlook the cooperation re- ceived from the volunteer members of the Transportation Corps who have been everything from glorified delivery boys to busses for the IVIu- sic Department. The P r o e c t o r Committee cl e s e r V e s recognition too, because it has been constantly called upon to show movies for nearly every class in the building.

The most fun coming from being an active member of our two clubs is the pleasure afforded us when banquet and tea time come around. During the year, the Girls' Club has sponsored the annual Mother-Daughter, Father-Daughter Banquets. On the boys' ledger, there have been the Mother-Son and Father-Son Banquets. Each party meant detailed planning and cooperation. Through work of this sort, the l940-l 9-4l Boys' and Girls' Clubs have been main factors in our looking-ahead pro- gram. YELL SQUAD Hal Habenicht, Dwight Stevens, Phil Suver, Leo Marshal, Herbert Scott. Productions at West Seattle range from special assemblies, little theater and class work, to the all important programs of the year-Senior Play, Pow Wow, and Qpera. These offer to each participant, whether or not he enters the entertainment Held in any Way, benefits which he may carry on into his future. No one who has taken part in these group practices can help but un- derstand the amount of real Work which goes into each production. This is the section devoted to the stu- dents of our school who have given their time and energy for West Seattle. Here are the advisors and directors, the student managers--who Worked to see that ex- penses did not exceed the prescribed bud- gets-as well as the actual performers.

Believing that newswriters must accommodate themselves to all forms of communication, Mrs. Chamberlen has made possible the broadcasting of high school news over station KRSC by members of the staff. Seven years ago several journalists and their advisor became Santa Claus to a number of unfortunate kiddiesg the staff now sponsors a Christmas Toy Drive that has become school wide and cared for 2,000 children during the past holiday season Proving their merit as real newshawks, the staff moved in on The Herald on April I4 and published that issue of the community paper. x rl Xxx, S Tom Tague, Lorraine Deluaney, Mae Mugler, Tatsumi Tada Dorothy Hayden DEBATE CLUB Front row: Virginia Anderson, Bob Bonifaci, Keith Colman George Costacos erry Costacos Ruth Dorr, Steve Ellis, James Georges, Elizabeth Gillespie Back row Barbara N lsham Bette Manners, Betty Maples, Arnold Nielsen, Marilyn Quint Richard Quint Mike Rothwell rn Rupart.

There's going to be a play tonight- really, I should say two plays. They're both one acts. See that girl running from honor study to room one? She's in the play and also directed it. The girls in room one are doing the make-up. Oh, yes, the students do that, too. They attend to costumes, scenery, and props, as well as being in the plays and directing them. You realize, don't you, that this is our student-run thea- ter? Here entertainment is provided for the students, usually twice or three times a month. Mr. Hannaford is factulty advisor, the drama classes and dramatic club sponsor the plays. We think it's good because it gives us practice in acting, and then, it's fun to watch. Oh, oh, we'll have to hurry. The plays are about to begin. Got your stamp book? Come on.

As sopho- mores and juniors, our activities increaseg our curriculum becomes more specialized. The Final peak of the four years is reached when we become seniors, senior play is produced, preparations for graduation are advanced with plans for class day, special assemblies, the prom and commencement materializing. These classes, led by their officers, back school activities and give im- petus to many improvements. By being active, we learn to accept responsibility and to cooperate with fellow students, a training which is invaluable in molding us to fit our place in future life. -f 1 1 1 f ' W dj! ,J 3 , X f X rj ' W V f U ' fp fy VJ!

Leadership and spirit were stupendous, our committees and organizations func- tioned well, and new ideas and character were abundant. Our senior play was colossal, the senior assemblies were outstanding, and our dances were leading events of the year. Everyone has worked and accomplished something, no matter how great or small the accomplishment. We have solved our problems and have met each new task with challenge. We have experienced the thrill of achievement and have valued each other's companionship. We have, as proof of all this, unsurpassed champions in every field.

Yes, we are the Juniors, and good ones, although I imagine every Junior President has said the same. Ours is the class with the vim and vigor and this is the year that we have really used our push to make activities go over in a big way. We have had fun planning and then seeing our plans completed. No matter if we had our troubles, we kept our laughter and pep. We can account for success by the cooperation of all the officers-Vice Presi- dent Mary Christ, Secretary Betty Maples, Treasurer Bob Marshall-the initiative committee chairmen, and a willing sponsor.

Indian sports- men and Women have Worked out a plan to cover all phases. This program is well- rounded, major, minor, and girls' sports furnishing ample opportunity for each member of the student body to develop body and the character of good sports- manship as well as mind. The future of this generation when sports are empha- sized is secure-they will know how to play as well as work. .ff I s 1.4-f' kf' I fr, l xf 15 P fn ' 0 . 1 ,, , A vwx 5 k I.

Both are the same story. Taking over the nucleus of a non-victorious team, Coach Ullin added new material, a new system, and a new determination--a spirit which carried the varsity through six: games for a won three, lost three record. Not soon will be forgotten the most strik- ing high point of that season-the opening win against favored Queen Anne when hun- dreds of lndian fans, able for the first time to cheer a win, ripped both goal posts from their moorings, then immediately contrib- uted enough money to rebuild the markers. The disappointing loss to Roosevelt didn't dim hopes, but merely set the stage for the overwhelming West Side defeat of Broad- way. With both squads pointing for cham- pionship chances, Garfield won the toss. The lndians vented their rage on Lincoln, smoth- ering the Railsplitters. The closing game with Cleveland was a heart-breaker, just edging West Seattle out of a spot on the Thanksgiving Day program. Taking the field against the city's scrubs, West Side Papooses each earned the envi- able record of three wins, two ties, and one loss. Opening against Queen Anne, the third team won, l 2-6, while the Kuays led the sec- onds, 6-0. Following in rapid order for the second team were wins over Roosevelt and Broadway, a tie with Garfield, a forfeit win over Lincoln, and a tie with Cleveland. The thirds lost to Roosevelt, tied Broadway and Garfield, and finished the season with wins over Lincoln and Cleveland.

Opening the season as one of the touted ball clubs, they met a heart-breaking set- back at the hands of clark horse Garfield. ln the second game, a home stand, Queen Anne spilled the Indians. Looking extremely good in some spots and a complete turn-around in others, the cagers took one after another close losses on the chin, finally recovering both mo- rale and ability to finish the season with two home game wins. Ballard and third place Lin- coln, were the teams who fell before the West Side onslaught. ll 2: -6-' .- -J 1 ,, fi .1 A Action in the West Side gym as the lndians play A .

First, of local interest, the West Side second and third teams placed comparatively high in their respective classes, thus pointing for future good rungs on the city ladder for coming varsities. The more important innovation of this yearis basketball season was, of course, the lengthening of the schedule. This change of season from twelve to sixteen games not only leads to more complete rounds for all sports, but it also gives sports enthusiasts throughout town an inkling of hope that sometime, even farther ahead than the full schedules. there may be competition between Seattle and other high schools in the state as the ultimate result of this 1941 change. For the fans, the past basketball season provided plenty of thrills, foremost among them being the wins over Ballard and Lincoln. Their long anticipation of victory for the lndian cagers served to make the celebration, when it finally came, all the sweeter. Long heralded as one of the most loyal student bodies in the city, West Seattle packed the gym balcony week after week. Resigned and satisfied with defeat? No!

Lively and full of fight, turnouts proved to be the method of eliminating, through challenge matches, all but the first class tennis timber. This number one material, whipped up into the first team by Coach Brink and Captain Gail Halliday, started out with one pur- pose-to show the rest of the town that West Seattle plays a good brand of tennis. This they did, opening fire on Franklin on April 28, and following through with matches against Broadway, Queen Anne, Ballard, Roosevelt, Garfield, and Lincoln. Overflowing with determination, the West Side golf squad started digging div- ots for keeps long before the other spring sports were well under way. At the end of the first few matches, Coach Frame's team, with spots almost entirely taken by inexperienced players, had not placed in the win column, although some of the sophomores and juniors had shown prom- ise of better things in the future. With weekly succession, the other schools of the city met the Indian golfers. Tennis team limbers up with set of doubles between scheduled games.

While West Side dignitaries and businessmen shammed a battle on the Hiawatha Dust Bowl, West Seattle held its hopes until the eighth inning, when they finally blasted out hits and runs to score an upset over Roosevelt. Following this, they beat out a close one at Lincoln for a 3-Z win. This, to recall the old saying, was only a be'- ginning. The West Siders continued on to make the 1941 baseball season stand out as one of the best of its kind during recent years. 1 I j7,L R ,Clif IZ! ' 1 M ff ACL A' , lflii fl -f f ff. !

'hack Old Man Weather should have earned a stripe this spring along with the mem- bers of West Seattle's varsity track team. With his ardent cooperation, the Indian thin-clads bounced through a practice sea' son that was marked with only a few bad days, the warm and good training weather, having started early in March. With this extra time to train and better material than usual, the white and blue clad runners breezed through the first meet for an easy win over Roosevelt, takf ing 9 out of I3 first places. At the time of writing, this early Win seems to be only a fore-runner of many such during the track season. Two dual meets and two triangular meets were on the menu for the West Siders this spring, in addition to the Relay Carnival and the all-city. Besides showing promise to take these individual contests, West Seattle looked like a cinch to better the fourth place which they gar- nered in the all-city, together with some other boys who showed promise of placing high in the climax event, this prediction looked to be a cinch, with l94l a red-letter year for another of West Seattle's spring sports.

These boys, backed up by such able per- formers as Jack Wright, Tom Tague, Gene Raymond, Phil Brewer, Martin Smith, Dean Fred- ericksen, Don Sherman, Lee Brewer, Hugh Snow, Jack Southerland, jim Kennada, John El- liott, Tom Ruggles, Elmer Pavey, Bob Jacobsen, Dale McLaughlin, and others, showed bet- ter than ever that one of the strong teams at Vlfest Seattle is Coach Frame's track squad. Truly one of the most success- ful te am s in W e s t Seattle's schedule of inter-school competi- tion, the chess squad goes on, year after year, devoid of public- ity, but not of championships. Having burned up its four team league again in this season, the brain trust rested du r i n g the spring, looking back at the re- l mains of Roosevelt, Queen Anne, and Broadway, all of whom placed behind the Indians.

Nevertheless, girls continue to turn out enthusiastically for sports. A variety is offered here at West Seattle, each helpful in building graceful bodies and healthy minds, and it is not difficult for a girl to choose several sports which she enjoys.

Healthy, enthusiastic girls with varied interests are the members and they work hard to keep up the standards of their organization. ln doing this, they are active in school service. Most of us do not realize that it is these girls who take charge of the youngsters at Lafayette twice a month, in order that the Pre-School parents may have an uninterrupted meeting. When the boys date mother or dad for a banquet, it is these W Club girls who serve. These same girls are responsible for at least one assembly a year. Another feather in the W cap is that our girls--in competition with the members of the All-City Letter Club-have again won the cup which is awarded to the best all-city sportswomen. Coming emphatically in this classification, and also a part of the girls' sports, is the previously mentioned Dance Drama. This group, capably directed by Miss Ma- goon and consisting of the Dance Drama club and class, plus two rhythm classes, produced their annual recital along the theme of We the People, Speak. Before a double assembly on May 7, approximately sixty-three girls danced the self-com- posed routines which told the story of the people The first of the six numbers dealt with Life Itself and was based upon the theory that Life is Energy, Dance is controlled Energy. Thus, red-clad, energetic figures spoke through motion. The second episode was divided into three, each interpreting one phase of Stu- -dent Lifenz Classroom, Gridiron, and ln the Swing. Going on in logical sequence from the development of the individual, the danc- ers showed the progress of the city in a sketch entitled mlqrackless Trolleys, an accurate and humorous observation. The people spoke of Work Todayng the machine age, the turn from slowness and singleness to speed and mass production. This scene was equipped with a nearly authentic stage set. The people spoke of Holiday Paradesf' popular and frequent with Americans. First came the crowd, then the band, then the drill team, the city officials, and last, Miss Liberty and her court of girls. gf-E3 i.,,,.k .

And so, without expressly wishing to do so, we now draw to the close of another year of sports at West Seattle High School. For most of us, it has been a good yearg for many of us, too, it is the last such year which we will enjoy. Thrills, humor, disap- pointments, satisfactions, all shared their respective places in the schedule of l94l indian Sports. Only moderately successful in the city standings of the various sports, perhaps, West Side efforts nevertheless bore the fruits of good fortune-improvement. Foot- ball stock took a decided rise, and the basketball forces took a small step on the upward ladder. At the time of writing, the four spring sports show promise of even better things, while the scope of intramural and girls' sports widened during the past year. However, let all talk be aside, the worth of a season in ath- letics is written in the achievements of its individual athletes, in the records made by those outstanding in their respective fields. Every sport had its headliners, it would be impossible to make this list even nearly complete. To merely name the graduating letter winners would likewise be at best a partial solution. Every member of the team's personnel, from the coach and the stars, down to the managers and the scrubs, deserve credit in a tribute of this kind. So now what started out to be a list of the most outstanding athletes of the sports year l94I got out of conrol and must be merely a plea to turn back over this sports section and look at all the pictures, those in groups possibly even more than the first team men in the individual pictures. Forced by lack of space to consolidate, those in group shots are no less important. You have seen and heard the praises of the varsity time after time. Now look at the picplires of those less fortun te, but no less de- terminedg they're e ones o made the tea . on! P E LL POLLOCK, ' W f f Kimtah Sports Editor f 4 r Witt Dwi!

Incidents like these will remain with each one of us for years, tying together in our minds the scheme of life of our years at West Se- attle. Wise traditions, routine activities, and special events have served as guide posts for us, and have made up a pattern that we have followed, and leave for the classes yet to be. These little things mean much now, and will signify even more when We recall them in the years to come. Schoolfige SEPT. 4: Wednesday was the day, and the hour early. The halls were Filled with people back at school after summer months of fun. There were timid Freshmen, more confident Sophomores, and upperclassmen, all standing, talking, laughing, and making new acquaintances. For each of them the school year of l940-l94l held a promise. SEPT. l6: We spent the first week and a half-geb ting adjusted to books on our arms, books on our hips, and books sprawled on and in our lockers. Then we added activity stamp books to the list! SEPT. 20: This is where some great friendships must have begun, for at the Pigskin Parade - the hrst dance-the music box broke down, and we were forced into Hhome-brew singing and great witticisms. SEPT. 26: i'Our team is red hot! -a great truth! We can still remember the grand feeling of com- ing in on top I9-7, the first gameg we still remem- ber being wet, sneezing too much, and catching cold. But we didrft care, it was for the Blue and Gold that we lost our voices, and ruined our feet walking to the stadium. Football is a great thing! 'Ihe School 'Lfem M Rewhaf OCT. 4: We never really expected to beat a bunch of tumbling tumbleweeds like those Roosevelt Rough-riders, anyway! But even though they did win, they were only one point C7-63 ahead! We maintain, Our team is red hot! OCT. l2: Ah-Broadway, 03 W.S.H.S., l5! We began to think that red hot was too mild. Look at us go! This last score makes us forget '7-6' and puts us away up high! incidentally, this is only the beginning. just wait 'till we are really on the war path! OCT. IB: Hereis something quieter than those foot- ball games: lVliss America Dates Her Dad was the theme of our annual Dad-Daughter Banquet. Every gal was dined, coHeed, and danced, and all went home having thoroughly enjoyed a per- fectly lovelyn evening! OCT. 24: Oh, dear, must we dwell on things like this? Yes, we played another game, this time with Garfield, and No, We didn't Win. Something like 7-O. But just the same, We still suits We! NOV. 8: Up again we came-opportunists, red-hot, Hnever say die and all that. On November 8, we licked the skin off Lincoln. Anyway, we were victorious with a 20-0 score. Our team is some- thing to be reckoned with. NOV.: Attention, please! The gave! falls, students in honor study-through permission of their sixth period teachers-pop to alertness. The speaker goes to the rostrum, and another debate is swinging along. Under the direction of Mrs. Lansing, the first semes- ter teams debated Roosevelt fpicturej, Broad- way, Ballard, and Queen Anne, fthe last two at those schoolsl, on the question of the United States' relationship with Latin America. NOV. l !-l 5: Was Education week-and the week the Lions and Kiawanians met here at school. These two clubs are composed of business and professional men, whose purpose is to serve the community. So with all our enthusiasm we say, Greetings, Lions and Kiawaniansln NOV. !3: Mother-Daughter Tea and report cards -either heart-breaking, Cdate-breakingl, or ele- vating-came on the same day this year. It was almost too much, having Mothers meet teachers, if you know what we mean. Anyway, the food was excellent, as always, the entertainment was superior, and there were No Regrets all around. fExcept maybe on the report card side.J 4 41. . if THE SKI QUEEN AND HER COURT Princesses Suzanne lVlcNaught, Thelma Thorgersen, Queen Joanne Peters, Eleanor johnson, Dorothy Capelloto. FALL TO WINTER There were the last few football games-the stands filled with pom-pom waving-cowbell ringing humanityg the winds were wet and clinging, but a real part of the games. The band played and we sang. There were shorter days-more schoolwork done by electricityg people wore heavier coatsg the mornings were wet and gray. We stayed indoors. There was vacation, and what went before-preliminary exams, baskets, hur- ried Christmas shopping and best wishes all around, hall decorations, a program, and Christmas songs. Poinsettia and holly were in our thoughts. There was more of the skiing that had begun earlier-bright sunlight on glar- ing snowg a Swish of color and a form going down hill, too many people on the ski lift-it slipped back. There were P. T. A. dances-the field house was lighted, music blared, people dancedg someone opened a window and the fresh air rushed in, cold on the dancers, cheeks. There was the new semester-some seniors gone, many new sophomores and freshmen to take the vacant places. There were introductory assemblies. Girls' Club began new Work and sponsored parties. There was more basketball-yelling fans, a whistle, a spurt of lanky legs across the gym. Basket made-a cheerg basket missed-a groan. The gym was hot and filled with smells of tennis shoes. And along in there, between a basketball game, a flower in the botany garden, and baseball turnouts, came spring. NOV. l4: Most of our folks have wanted to meet our teachers at some time or other, and they did this year, because West Seattle has revived the annual Back to School Night. This is the time that all the dads and mothers go to classes to see examples of student work, to talk to teachers about how Ted is doing. So on an evening for an hour or so, parents visited class rooms and looked and chatted, then later went to the audi- torium for a program concerning school. Remarks included 'ilnvaluable toward parent-teacher un- derstandinggn Really enjoyed myselff' Hope it's here again. fNote: We students say, O.K. NOV. l5: With a victory so close to us, West Se- attleites found it hard losing that decisive game to Cleveland. There is no reason, though, for us to take our loss badly, because we must realize that altogether, our Indians and Coach Ullin have done an excellent job. MOTOR SQUAD NOV. 20: Here they are, folks-part of the ener- getic motor squad. These are the glorified de- livery boys of West Seattle High School. CARD TRICKS-CLEVELAND GAME. NOV. l5: We have a public spirited group of West Seattleites to thank for the card stunts presented at the last football game. Let's hope that l94l- 1942 brings more of them. SENIOR PLAY NOV. 29th-30th: We hear that the fencing routine wasn't all that it could have beeng some would have preferred a stormier romance. Anyway, June Mad, early as it was, went off splendidly, living up to the reputation of all the previous senior plays. DEC. 6: So the boys date Dad, tool That popular fellow! l940 saw dad and son listening to a sporty, witty entertainment, and eating turkey dinner with all the fixings. Hurrah for lVlr. Liston and his Warriors. DEC. IZ: Once there was a rather conceited Chinook team, and there was a pert group of faculty players. There was also slander about the uagedf' about the uyouthf' Finally, there was the Faculty-Chinook basketball game--proceeds for charity-and the rather conceited Chinook team lost to the pert faculty! The game is an annual tradition. ls the result to become tradi- tion also? DEC. l6-20: Hail to Mr. Behymefs first rate choir! We have certainly enjoyed their music through- out the year, and it was especially grand at Christmas time when the entire group caroled in the halls. The choir did an excellent job. DEC. 20: Our day to give, falls on the 20th of the month. ln November fthe 20thD we sent baskets to families. Similarly, on Dec. 20th we sent bas- kets fprepared by the women teachers' rollsl hoping that more families would be merry. An admirable job was done by a committee headed by Pat Pittack, a committee which, with the co- operation of the school, saw that the baskets were well filled. Again Mr. l..iston's Motor Squad did the delivering. 'LUMIS C C' Bring your old toys to the Chinook Shack or to your roll. We need every toy we can get! That is something of the general trend here at West Seattle around Christmas time. That is the time each of us donates his old toys, in order that the energetic members of the Chinook-spon- sored drive might repair and distribute them. All this means work, but there is fun in mixing paints and creating some- thing bright from something dull, espe- cially when we are sure that it will bring pleasure to a child. just before Christmas vacation began, the baskets-which the women teachers' rolls had prepared for the needy families-were distributed Many of them contained toys, as well as staples, meat and other foods. This is an annual practice at West Seattle, and the boys and girls are notably generous. This year the committee was headed by Pat Pittackg the motor squad saw that each basket reached its family. Many roll teachers permitted their groups to udigressn for a period along lines of candy, cookies, ice-cream and games, with truly Indian gift presentation. At these Christmas parties the toys which the students exchanged were turned into the Chinook Shack to be sent on to children. In the picture, Santa Kimball is jovially distributing dolls to members of his roll. ,gg Our natural, pre-holiday excitement was heightened this year by an elaborate Christmas pageant, presented by the English, Music, and Art departments. By word, by song, by grouping, use of color and lights, these three departments pre- sented again the story of the Nativity. For a week or two most of us had been looking forward to December twenty-- Fifth with nervous anticipation. For two weeks we had heard Christmas emphasized in every possible way. Then, when the lights dimmed and the curtains parted on angels and pageantry while the choir sang the story as we saw it-our excitement was hushed into a Christmas prayer for as peaceful, as beautiful a Christmas spirit for the world as we had then. Miss Margaret Akin, member of the English department, wrote and directed the program, which was introduced by Mr. Fulton. Following this, there was a musical prologue, under the direction of Mr. Behymer. Another faculty member, lVliss Coyne, sang the first solo, Holy Night. The entire performance carried with it an air of majesty, yet no one has said that anything surpassed the final number, the Hl..ord's Prayerff, 3 1 , .

Some- how, there are those who never have homework to do until the teacher says final exam tomor- row. Then those people realize that vacation has ended and school begun. But, just as though they had not been at all, the weeks were gone, the tests, over, the report cards distributed. FEB. 28: The first victory for the Indians C47-265 was made with Jack Bostick totaling I4 points, Qvale 7. Bill Hawkins ran a circle around the Ballard team. So many fouls were called on West Seattle that we were short of substitutes and Aldo Campagnaro was allowed to play by special per- mission. I-Ie ended the game with 6 personal fouls. MAR. 7: Rene Le Vitre had control of the back- board the whole game with King and Bostick just behind him. Hawkins again showed a good per- formance with the ball. A good offensive game running one of the highest scores of the year- 50-40. INTERNATIONAL CLUB TEA Amo, amas, amatg vale. Qui. HI-IeiI. Si, si. The members of the International Club must surely have known more language than thisg how- ever, food is a good medium of understanding, and the tea sponsored by this umelting pot or- ganization probably put interpretation on an intelligent level. So the members say. We should feel honored-the well-known Linfield Choir chose to stop only at West Seattle. They paused for an hour between hops from Victoria and Bremerton, to sing to a double assembly. We really did appreciate that. BLACKOUT This remarkable picture of the blackout, in the panel to the left, was taken by some worthy member of the photography staff. We feel it fthe picture? is a real work of art, deserving highest praise. Incidentally, the blackout received great verbal applause from our student body! RADIO PROGRAM Early in the semester IVIrs. ChamberIain's radio writing class took a trip to one of the stations and produced an introductory program dealing with school life. This was exceptional because it was student-backed entirely. APRIL 4-14th: Always, always, there is rain at vacation time. During the vacation LIFE maga- zine sponsored a week's trip around Washington State, for high school students. Wib Morrow, Marilyn Quint, and IVIary Jane Stender were West Seattle I-Iigh School's representatives. JUNE 6: KimtaI'l's Out! About this time the staff sighs its last sigh, stretches, and puts it fastest foot forward, hoping the criticisms won't kick the staff out! Kimtah's Outlg we've done our best. JUNE l3th: To school for report cardsg stay long enough to say goodbye till next year or goodbye for good. Action at the hot corn SPRING TO SUMMER There were earlier flowers. The sun was a refugee from California floods. The trees blossomed gradually. We opened windows to get all the air and newness that we could. There were track turnouts-the boys practiced during school and on into evening. Later there were contests and meets, with vocal assistance from the student body. There was spring vacation-coming when so many of us needed rest and' time to think. Daffodils, calla lilies, Easter lillies and tulips grew. We rested a week, preparing ourselves for report cards, we wore new clothes, read much inside because, of course, there was rain. Easter brought the sun for good. Then we returned to books. There were courts filled with people playing tennis-early mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Arms, backs, and legs ached. There was the inevitable and popular baseball-dust flew as players rang ball met bat with a crack, a cheer, and a whistle. A home run-a lingering yell, strike three, yer outli' The sighs were like a stormy day. The game continued late, the sunshine was less, the shadows more, when the crowds went home. There were longer days-homework done by prolonged twilight. Mornings were like precocious youngsters, colored buff and pink by the sunrise. There were playsuits, summer slacks, gaudy prints and white shoes. s Before we could realize it, there was June and graduation. The Seniors were out a week early, they wore their caps and gowns before they left. Commencement plans were nearly done-the program, the dance. We rushed around, saying goodbye, paying fines, arguing ourselves through a course, and signing annuals. l-lot, l-lot, l-lot-it was June. The bells were silent, the tennis courts and beaches, full. The tulips wilted in the botan arden under a sun that seared grass and heated sidewalks. S rinklers la ed' y g n P P y . people went on picnics, there were motor boats on the water-summer and vacation had come. l . l e ,L , ., ,, Upper left-lris Nelson-Valedictorian Upper center-Willard Shield Upper right-Faye St. john-journalism award Lower left-jim Popp-Basketball inspirational award Lower center-Bill Sanderson-Football inspirational award Lower right-Dick Bechtolcl-Salutatorian OTHER AWARDS FOR I94I Thorlief Johnson, commencement speaker selected by the faculty. Bill Nicholson, commencement speaker selected by the student body. Miss Inspiration-Doris Jean Behymer. Willard Shield winners: Doris Jean Behymer and Dick Bechtolcl. fqawuh Every spring, as April ends and May begins, the faculty ahd student body together announce the winners of the awards traditionally presented to graduating Seniors. One of the most important of these is the Willarcl Shield, to which one boy and girl-who have done outstanding work,been of inspiration and given their time to school activities--are elected. The Shield was given in 1929 by his class in memory of Bill,' Willard-a fine representative of what is meant by He gave his best. Bill, active in sports, died as a result of injuries received on the football field. Since then we have made an effort to fulfill this message, printed upon the Shield: Heron shall be inscribed each year the name of one girl and one boy selected by the student body of West Seattle High School as being outstanding in their contribution to the advancement of school idealsf, We all realize that being either highest or second highest in scholastic rating is a distinct honor. Salutatorian of the graduating class is the student of second standing, whose speech opens the Commencement program. Vale- dictorian is the boy or girl who has attained the highest grade points, and who closes the commencement program with a farewell address. Two other honors, these elected by the Seniors and the faculty, are the Commencement speakers. These persons are selected upon the basis of their contributions to the school. From members of the Senior Class who have filled these requirements, nominations are made and the elections take place. Along with elections came the announcement of the girl who has earned the title of Miss Inspiration. This position is accorded to the Senior girl who has given ideals to her contemporaries to look up to. The field of sports has its honors, too. The inspirational players in basketball and football are the two players who by their effort, interest and good sportsmanship have set standards for their fellow players. QUILL AND SCROLL Quill and Scroll-goal of all high school journalists! Chinooksters look toward the time when they may belong to this Ulnter- . national Honorary Society of High School journalists, which offers recognition to those students who have done superior work John- Ruie Gray, Dorothy Hayden- Marjorie Johnson- On their School papers Ed Simonds, Bettie Anderson, l QUILL AND SCROLL Bill Pollock, Betty Maples, Virgihia Anderson, Fay St. Little scrolls and golden quills identify the thirteen West Seattleites now belonging to the Rupert Hamilton chapter, named after the the late editor of the Herald, long a friend and advisor to the West Side high school journalists. Youthful news writers are inspired to accomplish superior work and maintain the highest standards of journalism on their papers by the untiring efforts of the Quill and Scroll. Through it Seattle journalists from the nine high schools get valuable information by partici- pating in the all-city organization. The active members of the chapter are Bill Pollock, Mary Lou Hohner, Marjorie john- son, Paye St. john, Beryl Burns, Dorothy Hayden, Ed Simonds, Walt Loring, Dave Tier- ney, Ruie Gray, Bettie Anderson, Virginia Anderson, and Betty Maples. PATSY SIBLEY This girl with the personality smile is nineteen year-old Patsy Sibley, a graduating Senior. Patsy started school at Lafayette, and Went on to james Madison with the rest of her class, but was later stricken with arthritis and . has had to continue her studies H at home. Like so many of us, she has taken a college preparatory course, and has also done some correspondence school work with the University. Patsy's interests are many and varied, including books and pets.

These are the people whom the Senior Class has decided are best qualihed to accept the special honors accorded to outstanding Seniors. Naturally, those elected, have spent time building good reputations by taking part in extra-curricular activities and being outstanding in their classrooms. They have the spirit of West Seattle in their blood and her interests in their interests. When we say that any one person is Most Likely to Succeed, we think of the person who has contributed to, and realized much from, his high school yearsg we find that he is a well rounded, capable person, Dick Bechtold.

To make possible special assemblies and productions, and to carry on ordi- nary school routine, some groups must be responsible for the everyday tasks that make such activities run smoothly Four of the groups at West Seattle that are outstanding in their ability to ren- der such service are the Make-up Club, Stage Crew, Custodial Staff, and Lunch Room Staff. Under Miss Donaldson's guidance, the Make-Up Club takes charge of all our budding performers in the Senior Play, Pow Wow, and Opera, grooming them for their respective roles. Productions wouldn't be possible however, if it weren't for the able assist- ance of the Stage Crew in making props, arranging furniture, and regulat- ing the stage effects. Week in and week out the Custodial Staff is busy keeping the building clean and in order. To all of you we express our heartiest thanks, we really appreciate it. For the convenience of those who wish a hot lunch, West Seattle main- tains a lunch room, well supplied with cooks: Mrs. Parrot, Mrs. Dieu, and stu- dent assistants. Day after day, they prepare well- balanced, inexpensive meals for all, and in addition, aid with banquets, teas, and club meetings throughout the year.

After months of writing endless pages of copy, littering up room ll7 with negatives, pictures, and proofs, and adding several gray hairs to lVlr. Wohlrabe's head, this year's Kimtah has taken its rightful place as a record of what West Seattle accomplished in 1941. The work began in September when the permanent staff and several contributors held meetings to decide on an appropriate theme. Several ideas were discussed but finally Build- ing for the Future was decided upon. The staff was divided into editors, copy writers, photographers, and artists, soon after this, and the work began in earnest. Several weeks were spent wrangling over the tentative dummy. l-low many pages of sports? Shall we have lithography or engraving? ls copy necessary on this page? Etc. Photographers snapped pictures of everything from Dance Drama in action to the study hall, and spent many hours developing, printing, and mounting pictures. The copy writers wrote volumes of copy over and over again, until it was accepted or thrown away-usually the lat- ter. And so each department kept a careful record of how we of West Seattle worked and played. Top row: Jeanne Brown, Alice Nlilclcelson, Don l-lrachovina, Lucile jones, Richard Anderson.
