The murals above the en- trance to the auditorium? There are three. This de- picts the loading at Alki. Perhaps they have brought a greater realiza- tion of the hardships en- dured by the people of the little community that grew to be Seattle! You will never forget those September days-perhaps lunch on the playfield -and, before the noon tardy bell, how you strolled back to class along Walks patterned with patches of sunlight cmd shadow. Kimtah is an I ndian Wor d. It mea HS 776 5 PUHEWUHII Picturesque beaches, shorelines fringed with groves of madronas cmd cedars -green, wooded islands and, as a backdrop, the Olympic range of snow- capped mountains. These form the setting for the region in which We live -- The Puget Sound Country. But there are sounds and activities We- have learned to associate with Puget Sound. The cry of the sea gulls wheeling in the wake of the ferry boats that ply its waters. The deep-voiced fog horn down at Alki. The sound of ships' bells that come to us across the Water. And there are pleasures, too. The gathering at sunset around a beach tire - those quiet afternoons in summer when We busied ourselves with the hook and bait and waited-swimming-boating-or just that easy lite that goes with hiking. There is joy in living on Puget Sound. W Meygr f.,g,..

Reed Fulton, Principal Sand and heat and sagebrush, cactus and thirst and alkali-would the-se be our deliberate choice against the bush vegetation and the mild breezes of Puget Sound? Most of us will answer an emphatic NO!, unless other factors make us accept a less favorable environment. And from our physical wonderland there comes inspiration for a type of mental life which it is difficult to surpass. But nature can no more than pro- vide the setting for a life of fine accomplishment and satisfaction. It is the individual who must become aware of that opportunity and make use of it. An education should help us in this very chore. We should come to know our possibilities and to apply those spurs which will urge us on to Worthy results. -Reed Fulton. 10 MH. Ii YET: MESS BE Congratulations to all of you Whose happy lot it is to live in this green Paradise on Puget Sound. Where else can you find so many generous incentives to complete liv- ing? Elbow-roorn and freedom and Wide-open-spaces are all in the picture. Does hiking along a forest trail or skiing or mountain climbing have any appeal for you? How about cruising among the San Iuan Islands, or canoeing on our rivers and lakes? Golf and tennis, fishing and camp- ing, svvimming or horseback riding or flying. Are they not all available he-re in the Sound Country for any- one who has the urge to live to the limit? Add to such invitations to get joy out of live-health, a cheerful mind, loyal friends, satisfying work-with freedom from worry and fear thrown in. What a thrilling prospect if Time remains, if War is outlawed, if Human Brotherhood prevails and Atomic Power is used, not to de- stroy, but to bring untold benefits to Mankind. -A.

A greater appreciation of Puget Sound and the Whole World about us as ample dividend for the hours we spend in physics and chemistry and biological science. How the starfish lives-where the clam hides out-what treasure the sea holds - We learn the answers to such questions. We learn to understand lite around us, their adaptations for living and their problems. 13 Mr. Hannaford, Boys' Advisor PHYSICAL ED II!-l'l'IU Mrs. Babb Mrs. Ferguson Mr. P. I. Murphy Mr. Ullin Physical education classes, in this Puget Sound country of ours, help us enjoy to the- full the recreational advantages the region offers. And the con- tribution to our ability to live happily that We have received from instruction in art or in cooking and clothing classes is no minor contribution. HUME Ellll UMIE5, ART 8. MUSIC aw.

But this is not the only field of our social studies department. We will remember the days in classrooms where Northwest Industries and U. S. History were taught. Those classroom hours will have con- tributed much toward our enjoyment of life on Puget Sound. SUIIIM. ST DIES Miss Clark, head of Social Studies De- partment: Mrs. Cooper: Mr. Brink. Mr. Rowe.

Perhaps it is a boat you would like to build for the fun you will have on Puget Sound. Perhaps it is a dream house you would like to learn to plan or how to re-pair that car ot yours for a week-end trip. Our industrial arts department with courses in wood shop, cabinet-making, auto repair and drawing can readily pro- vide the instruction you want. 16 x, , Many of us have obtained valuable training in commer- cial classes. Who would not profit from a course in typing or shorthand or office training? The Work in buymanship has proven extremely helpful. And many a day We have found the class in retail selling busy planning a display such as would attract interested buyers in any department store.

Right: Miss Lane, librarian: Mrs. Olsen, library assistant. Many students have found that our Library links itself with the recreation of every one of us who has learned to enjoy living- particularly, living on Puget Sound. They have found it more than a workshop for finding the facts to shape into term papers or assign- ments for history or science or English. Have you ever used its books on Puget Sound history-on the voyage-s of Captain Van- couver-the settlers at Penn's Cove--the Seattle of yesterday? If you have not, the1'e's a treat in store for you!

A year of successful activity- Sign-Up Day, CSG assemblies, drives, cam- paigns, 32-Day Plan, the Student Court, revision ot the Constitution, How Book and hundreds of meetings. As a real accomplishment, the West Seattle student body can point with pride to the Stu- dent Court. It is a real step forward in student participation. This is but one specific example of how CSG assisted in school control. In the past year we have developed greater coordina- tion in school activities and helped bring out leadership and cooperation in members of the student body. CSG ran more smoothly under a new system of streamlined government with Bob Benson, student body vice-president, in charge of the legislative branch and Herb Fuller, student body president, controlling the executive branch.

For the Senior Class, the past year has been marked by in- tense activity. The first task was the organization and super- vision of the annual parade to the stadium for the first football game. The Hallowe'en Safety Campaign proved a success. The halls of West Seattlewere more cheerful during the holi- day season because of the gay Christmas decorations fur- nished by the Senior Class. Precedent was established this year by the extensive celebra- tion featuring a luncheon, asse-mbly and dance for the mid- year graduates. Seniors hope that this will become a tradition at West Seattle. And precedent was broken when the Senior girls voted to wear white caps and gowns at commencement. It has been a wonderful year and much of the credit goes to our sponsor, Mr. Anderson, and our counselor, Miss Dunn. Dan Brink, Senior Class President. 22 IOHN W. ADAMS-Track: Football: Boys' Club.

This year's Iuniors are prepared and are looking forward to the year ahead. Early in the fall semester, the Iuniors sponsored the Com- munity Che-st Drive. The organization and planning behind that effort made the drive a distinct success. Working with the officers of the class of '48 were the sponsor, Mr. Rowe, and the counselor, Mrs. Duncan. The class appre- ciates the stimulation and guidance they have given. The class hopes to make '48 a year of progress and great accomplishments for West Seattle.

The class of '49, the large-st class in West Seattle at the present time, sponsored the paper drive on May 13 and made a successful drive of it. Under the capable chairmanship of Bruce Lyons many pounds of paper and magazines were gathered at the school and taken away on the same day. Funds from this drive were divided between the P.-TA. and the school fund. Mary Seth handled the publicity for the drive. The sophomore class also took an active part in other school activities includ- ing sports. First, second and third teams in all the major sports were repre- sented partly by sophomore boys and on the golf team, almost the whole squad was composed of class of forty-niners. Gordon Young represented the sophomore class on the student body assembly commission and two other sophomore boys, Glenn Miller and Bill Roan, helped to revise the school constitution. Class of '49 members possessing season passes are the proud owners of attractive two-color identification cards in the class colors. The class sponsor is Miss Martha Young and counselor is Mr. George Smith. Bob Peabody, President 46 Back Bow: Keith Allen, Ken Archer, William Baer, Don Alder, Ernest An- thony. Albert Anderson. .

No one will deny that a Freshman's life is interesting and trying during those first few days of the new school year. There is no doubt that even those wonderful Seniors can remember when their English class was next to the elevator or out by the swimming pool. But we were not discouraged. We soon discovered that by acting rather nonchalant about it, no one even sus- pected that we were merely Freshies. In the course of a few weeks, after earning back our money lost in buying tickets to the roof garden, we found that the P.-T.A. dances were a fine source of Friday or Saturday night entertainment. Through the various clubs and committees we were given an opportunity to become better acquainted with our school, the faculty, and our fellow students. We soon became part of the crowd and aware that we really belonged. Our first step towards organization was the election of officers. Tosh Tada was elected President CMelvin Meyers took office at mid-yearl: Soterio Chris- tadoulou, Vice-President: Mina Iennings, Secretary: and Annette LeCoque as Treasurer. With Miss Phillips as our counselor and Mr. Rakus as sponsor our class had excellent faculty supervision. Now, as the first year of high school is coming to an end we feel as if we have really always belonged here and we all agree that there is no place like West Seattle High. -Melvin Meyers. 53 ,ff fwwif W nj !'lz.L- ww' Third How: Dale Carpenter, Dick Best, Gordon Cheadle, Earl Bellows, Gale Acey, Bobby Amundson, Iim Arkills, Ierry Bar- ton, David Brauch.

Girls' Club means more to the girls of West Seattle than a means of entertainment because it stands for a guiding hand to every girl, through hardships and happiness. The purpose of Girls' Club is to lead the girls toward higher standards, self control and democracy. They secure a better sense of responsibility and spirit of friendliness since they learn and follow the highly respected Girls' Club Creed. Every graduating senior girl will look back to the four high school years she must now leave behind to venture out into the world, but she has a foundation of leadership and under- standing necessary to become successful in ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT Back Row: Doris Brandt, Kathleen Nellest, Nancy Wood- house, Barbara Fornasero.

CMissing members include Bonnie Rood, Ruth Truscott, Tom Barrett, Carol Brown, Merry Brighton.l Early last fall the Kimtah staff made plans for what they hope will prove to be at least a bigger and better Kimtah. Visions many staff mem- bers had had ot an easy road ahead were dissipated in meeting such problems as keeping within the budget, trying to meet the demands of pressure groups seeking space in the yearbook, building a dummy and revising it again and again to cut the cost of engraving and printing. Like every Kimtah editor, Barbara Hughes worked late at night on photo- graphs and many a morning on dummy and copy revision. Like every editor, she looks, after deadlines have been met, for a few short weeks of relaxation before Commencement. The Puget Sound theme was selected for this year's book after careful consideration of dozens of suggestions. What theme could be more fitting for a post-war year? Our Puget Sound Country is an invitation to peace- iul relaxation and carefree days. Its green trees and snow-capped Olym- pics tie in with the senior class colors. And our yearbook, with a Puget 70 Sound theme, becomes more than just a book of memories-it becomes an invitation to a happy summe-r on Puget Sound. The whole staff of the 1947 Kimtah have worked earnestly to attain the goal that was set. A careful survey of the features of yearbooks of the past helped them make their decisions on what should be added, what should be changed and what should be left out. More picture-s and more cartoons seemed to be the consensus of opinion among staff members as to what was really wanted. So more pictures and less copy has been the rule they have followed. The business staff, sponsored by Mr. Dotson, has done a splendid job in keeping track of expenses and attend- ing to schedules. Art work on the cover and the end sheet of this yearbook was prepared by Carole Brown and silk-screened by lVlr. Anderson. Cartoons were the Work of Carolyn Price and Herb Fuller. Carolyn prepared the figures for the Hall of Fame and the designs for divi- sion pages. lt is the hope of the editor, the staff and the Kimtah sponsor that our efforts to give you the kind of yearbook you want within the limitations of the budget you have provided have been success- ful. We sincerely wish that in later years you will treasure this record of 1947 at West Seattle High as a chroni- cle of happy memories, and to you who have learned to enjoy the recre- ational advantages of the Puget Sound region let this year's book be an invi- tation for a summer of joyful living on Puget Sound. Every member of the staff has worked to make it such a book. Above: Sports Editor Tom Barrett and Photo- graphic Editor Gordon Cantonwine.

IIHI llllli HIGHLIGHTS With the Warning journalism is composition in a hurry staring at them from a prominent plaque, ll cub reporters and 9 e-xperienced scribes assembled during fourth period last September 4 to begin planning the local weekly publication.

CHI Illlli HIGHLIGHTS First great highlight of the journalism year was the Chinook-Faculty game in early December, which proved the pencil wielders, as Don Brown poetically expressed it, would need more than the power of the press to whip the faculty granddaddies. Proceeds from this game and donations from Mrs. C's gum jar, which held fine money from nervous journalists who chewed gum and made galley mistakes, went toward the purchase of Christmas presents, including toys and food for a small Eskimo mission north of Nome. In addition to publishing a paper, Ianuary saw the Chinookies' collecting pocket overflow for the March of Dimes. A booth was set up in the front hall, and community competition made the drive an overwhelming success by netting S220 for the cure of infantile paralysis. Greatest highlight came after Easter vacation when the staff learned that once again their paper had been judged worthy of the N.S.P.A. All-American rating. 73 SE IIJH PLAY Fourth Row: Miss Lucas, Cullen Bates, Bob Benson, Gene Ford, Ray Barnecut, Dick Arnold.

As the lights were dimmed and the curtains parted, the audience became spectators in a crowded courtroom where Mrs. Gordon, played by Phyllis Whee-ler, was on trial for the murder of her husband. The frantic, arm-waving defense attorney, Rutherford Dale, was portrayed by ldris Lloyd, and Cullen Bated assumed the roll of Halsey Van Stye, prosecuting attorney. The defendants maid was played by Clarrien Powell, who gave evidence against her employer. Ray Barnecut gave evi- dence as Mrs. Gordon's doctor. Carl Magoon playd Art Dobbs, who had charge of the twelve jurors while they were in the jury room. Several Waiters were admitted to bring meals to the incarcerated jurors. The lady of the jury who finally convinced the rest of the jury that there was a reasonable doubt of the defendant's guilt was Mrs. Crane, played by Cecilia Owens on Thursday and Doris Northrup on Friday. The foreman of the jury, lay Pressley, offered the greatest resistance to Mrs. Crane's arguments fthe 74 SE IUH PL!-lY SENIOR PLAY LEADS Cecilia Owens, Doris Northrup, Bob Benson, Terry Wellington. part was played by Bob Bensonl. Other jurors were played by Iohn Kendall, George Frans, Bay Shultz, Ioan Anderson, Carol Block, Iohn Burnham, Beverly Peters, Kay Childs, Eugene Ford and Terry Wellington. At the end of a deliberation that extended over several days, the jury finally gave the verdict not guilty to Iudge Fish, known to the West Seattle student body as Dick Arnold. The response of the audience gave every indication that the dramatic produc- tion had bee-n a distinct success. The credit goes not only to the students who had parts in the play, who were members of the stage crew or members of the make-up club, but to the fine, patient work of the director, Mrs. Lucas.

Magic was the keynote of the l947 Pow Wow as the audience was carried from one part ot New York's Great White Way to another with a whisk of Master of Ceremonies Carl Magoon's magic wand. Starting at the Continental Room, three couples were entertained by several types of fascinating dances, performed by Ieanne Evans, Shirley Rector, Ioan Anderson and Clarriene Powell. Act two starred the hilarious Sun Spots, whose pantomime was accompa- nied by the tunes of Spike Iones. The Spots are ordinarily known as Ioe Bailey, Ken Eyer, Bob Benson and Ray Barnecut. Cynthia's Strategy was an amusing operetta in which the thwarted lovers, '76 Cynthia Mae Perry and Smith Stanley Young, found a way to overcome papa's prejudices. Bonnie- Wickholm, Gordon Cantonwine, Donna Pike and Ray Schultz supplied the laughs. Another stroke of magic brought the spectators to a lavishing night club featuring the Biglow sisters. Dorothy Carper swung up a lively boogie- Woogie toe dance-, followed by Doris Northrup in a modern ballet. The last of the trio was the popular toe-tap dance by talented Norma Barker. With the next wave of the wand the curtains opened to disclose famous Radio City. A mystery broadcast, star- ring Bob Tremain, Bob Utter, Paula Van Grossman and Diana Churchill, held the audience in suspense. The second radio program featured Iune Preston singing the currently popular Anniversary Song and a difficult duet by Paul Duesing and Don Peck. The next night club brought Bay Schultz to the microphone to sing I'll Close My Eyes. Don Peck played a tricky piano solo followed by a tap dance by Beverly Peters. Dan Brink, Don Brown, Norman Pil- grim, Tom Barrett and Darrell Iohnson sang songs of the Gay Nineties Up in Central Park. Copacabana was the last stop of the evening. Receiving highest billing at this noted spot were the gay Atomettes, who brought back the dances of early Broadway.

Through weeks of signal drills, block- ing and tackling practice' and hard scrimmage, the squad prepared for its opening encounter with Cleveland. After a jittery and scoreless first halt, the locals hit their stride in the third quarter. Here they punched across their first score of the game. By the time the tinal gun had sounded, three more touchdowns and a try-for-point were added. The Indians opened the-ir 1946 grid season with an impressive victory over their Georgetown rivals.

Both teams were evenly matched. Capitalizing on breaks, luck and heads-up football, the Indians came out with a close 12 to 6 win. West Seattle 12 Franklin 6 A last-minute splurge proved effective against the Garfield team. After several grue-ling and deter- mined drives, the Indians managed to score late in the fourth period.

Tired and bruised from all-out efforts, the locals weakened, thus permitting the final points. West Seattle 0 Queen Anne 13 Bruised, battered, and a little low in morale from the defeating game of the previous week, the team fell easy prey to the pennant-winning Lynx.

It was a well-played contest with neither team making any serious scoring threats, although the Indians did get a couple of breaks which failed to materialize. In the closing minutes, on an attempted pass which turned into a touchdown, the Teddies rode off with a close 6-0 ball game. West Seattle 0 Roosevelt 6 Another fourth quarter proved distasteful for the Indians in the battle with Ballard. They crosse-d the goal line for two scores to close the 1946 High School Football Season with a 13-0 win and to leave West Seattle in a three-way tie for fifth place.

At times the Indians have shown considerable strength both on defense and offense, but despite this fact they have yet failed to rack up their first victory of the season. To open their season they lost a heartbreaker to Franklin by a close score of 9-8. Their second game, although a defeat, was not easily lost as the Indians were determined to notch their first win of the season. Garfield had other ideas and went home with a 9-4 win. Traveling to the home of the Roosevelt Teddies, the Indians were handed another one-run defeat, this time by a 4-3 margin.

BASHETB LL Though not being a team which was at any time a serious threat to the championship, the- Indians did over- come their deficiency in size and made every game a hard-fought contest. Other teams were more con- sistent at hitting the hoop and winning ball games, but few had the fighting spirit of West Seattle's midgets. West Seattle opened the basketball season with a home game against Ballard. Our team lost by a 22-30 score. The next Week the locals, in the Cleveland gym, trounced the Eagles 50-39. The quintet was then turned back by Queen Anne and Lincoln. In an overtime game, the Redskins eked past Franklin to win by a close 27-26 count.

To prove they still had the spirit of tight, the locals gave Lincoln their big scare of the season and almost Walked off with a major upset. They lost in the last few seconds of the game by a score of 43-42. Dropping their last two games to Franklin and Roosevelt, the Indians ended their season in a tie for sixth place.

TRACK This year the cindermen ot West Seattle counted on the many promising newcomers up from the novice ranks to bolster the strength of the team. The team was hit hard by the loss ot graduating lettermen last year-only six veteran trackmen re- turning for this season. Among the teams the Indians drew for competi- tion were Garfield, Cleve- land and Queen Anne for dual meets: Lincoln and Roosevelt for triangular meets. The popular relay carnival and traditional All-City Meet were held as usual. For the non- varsity tracksters, the annual second team and Frosh-Soph meets provid- ed tair competition for all.

The girls' gym instructors offer each girl a chance to enjoy a Wide variety of sports. These include baseball, bas- ketball, volleyball, ping-pong, archery, badminton and tennis. These courses are under the supervision of Mrs. Babb and Mrs. Ferguson. And among the most popular-a sport which permits enjoyment of the Puget Sound region- is the after-school hikes for girls. .af M-ef GIRLS' SPUHTS A .s Q, 4 Vg. ,ti ,iff W. .Aff ' I TH M IUIL Many a school day, after the 3:10 bell has rung, Coach Murphy has charge ot intramural sports. Early the first of the fall seme-ster there are basketball players who wish to get in shape for basketball season. There are others interested in the game just for the thrill ot participating. These boys are divided into two groups-a major league and a minor league-each league having tour teams. Then the action starts. Another phase of intramural sports is the preparation of track athletes. Night after night they circle the oval or learn to improve their starting or running technique. The 100 Mile Club is popu- lar. Its members run a couple of miles each night and eventually reach their goal of 100 miles. Tumbling is another of the popular intramural sports. emma Q X IT K ,H K' 'fx K, QOL W K ff M 5 M f 'fl'I, 'N' X , 96 2 AWARDS K , 1 in...

There were friends to meet, the incidents of a happy summer to relate, class schedules to com- pare, and opinions to be e-xpressed on the prospects of winning a championship this year. That first day was short. Then we settled down to assignments and recita- tions, class preparations and discussions. The march to West Side Stadium ushered in the month of October and the- football season. Remember how you yelled your- self hoarse at that first game? Yell leaders and Cheeriettes urged us on in our efforts to support the team. The 25th of October was a red-letter day, too. That was the day West Seattle girls brought their dads to the Father-Daughter Banquet. They gave dad a banquet he would never forget! And that afternoon Housing Problems was the topic of a radio pane-1. Remember how shyly you introduced morn and dad to your teachers on Back to School Night? Or maybe you sent 1.

That was Novem- ber l4-an uneasy day for those of us who had not learned our lessons too well. or who had now and again failed to come up to par on exams. It was in November that seniors came to school one day dressed in their best. The reason? The photographer caught their most enchanting smile for the senior sec- tion of the Kimtah. Winter spread an unusually heavy man- tle of snow over Seattle. It brought a short vacation-snowballing on the playfield- and delayed report cards a week beyond their usual date. This was the month when West Seattle won first place in the state-wide history contest by walking away with six of the twenty-five awards. There is always a feeling of holiday spirit when December pops up on the calendar. There were events that month that added to the usual seasonal cheerfulness. On the sixth, the boys escorted mom to the Mother-Son Banquet, and that, too, was the day the faculty proved more powerful l I . .il s S tl' ly' i I Y - F xi Balcony view-back stage, Mr. Brown at the piano.

The Christmas assembly with the choir and four guest singers ushered in the vacation everyone is eager to have during the Christmas season. Boys' Club Talent Assembly was a high- light on the calendar for Ianuary. The ninth and tenth saw West Seattle audi- torium packed to capacity for the Senior Play - Ladies of the Iury. And a lunch- eon, assembly and dance were held in honor of the mid-year graduates as the iirst semester drew to a close. The first outstanding event in February was Shanty Town Fantasy, the Girls' Club Talent Assembly. Many red valen- tines changed hands on the 14th, as each West Seattle gal led her boy-friend to the annual Girls' Club Tolo. The Red Cross Drive came in this first month of the sec- ond semester-with West Seattle con- tributing S222.

And the last week of the month brought Spring vacation - it meant skiing for many: for others-relax- ation. April weather was very indusive to epi- demics of Spring fever. Baseball followed the basketball season-and track meets drew a lot of attention. Surprising how the coming of Spring blossoms and blue skies can make study so difficult! But we snap out of it about mid-day. There are semester grades in the offing -and exams-and term papers. With weekends at the beach or in the moun- tains-the business of getting an educa- tion becomes more difficult. May brings the business of school elections as well - Boys' and Girls' Clubs elections and the voting on candidates for offices for Co- operative Student Government. The month ends with that carefree day for seniors- Senior White Day. Iune-just two weeks of it! Exams- Senior Picnic -Commencement. Events occur at greater tempo. Before we realize, we are students of West Seattle High no longer-we are grads--with lots of memories to carry with that diploma we worked so hard to get. Charles H. Fraback, Custodian: Fred F.
