It came to pass as they did enter this land that they were received with wild rejoicings and numerous tortures by those that heretofore had decreed that this should be known as the mixing of the Class of Eight and T wenty. Likewise it came also to pass that the same class being organized did choose the motto “We Build. the colors “Coral Pink and White. the flow- er The Sweet Pea. Organized, did duly entertain the class of Seven and Twenty at the sole social function of this beginning year. Now it so happened that in the following year this class did make re- markable progress in scholastic and athletic competition. And it came to pass that in the year of Seven and Twenty that the class did publish a school annual edited by Margaret Nettles and managed by Bob Palmer known as the Stillaguamish Trail. And it came also to pass that the same class presiding at the largest so- cial function in the history of the class did surpass all preceeding classes in the Prom. This class did advance to the dignified rank of Seniors in the year of Eight and 1 wenty. And it came also to pass that they did present A Lucky Break as the annual Senior Play. And it came also to pass during this same year that they did excel all other classes in interclass basketball and track. Behold, blessed be the name of Education for because of it we have en- dured great torments both of body and mind. Y'erily, have we been martyrs to its great and noble cause. And now may the blessings that ever attend the noble and true follow and abide with us each and all now and forevermore. Amen I I —Lawrence DeWitt.

State of Washington, U. S. A., in individual and distinct parts, be- ing about to pass out of this sphere of education, in full possession of a cram- med mind, well-trained memory, and almost superhuman understanding, do make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and mak- ing void all former wills or promises by us at any time heretofore made, or mayhap carelessly spoken, one to the other, as the thoughtless wish of an idle hour. As to such estate as it has pleased the Fates and our own strong hands and brains to win for us, we do dispose of the same as follows: Item I. We give and bequeath to our beloved Superintendent, Mr. Bowman, our sincere affection, our deepest reverence, our heartiest gratitude, and the whole unlimited wealth of our eternal memory. Item II. We give and bequeath to our beloved faculty all the amazing knowledge and startling information that we have furnished them from time to time in our various examination papers. Item III. The following may be but trifling bequests, but we hope they may be accepted, not as worthless things lavishly given away because we can no long- er keep them, but as valuable assets to those who may receive them, and a con- tinual reminder of the generosity of heart displayed in our free and full be- stowal : 1st. To Lawrence Sessoms and Laddie Christiansen the ever-enduring friendship of Helen Thompson and Ethel Christensen. 2nd. To Bill Murphy, Charles Story’s bashfulness. 3rd. To all future Associated Students Presidents, George Wendell’s ability to convince Mr. Jerome of the said President’s unerring judgment. 4th. To Miss Noonan a crew for carrying the piano up and down stairs. 3th. To Kathleen Hart, Ida Borseth’s stature. 6th. To Cecelia Larson, Fern Muma's use of cosmetics. 7th. To Melvin Borseth, Vern Hild’s popularity with the girls. 8th. To talk with Lee and Louise in the halls we bequeath Marvin Grefs- rud and Conrad Espe to take the place of Hugh Sessoms and Jim Dunn. 9th. To Harry Hanson, Bill Reed’s boisterousness. 10th. To Oswald Anderson, George Preston’s speed on foot. I 1th. To Stanley Robinson, Lyle Lingo’s athletic ability. 12th. To Amanda Nickel, Clare Satra’s popularity with the masculine sex. 13th. To Ruth Lowe, Mildred O’Connor’s gift of gab. 24 THE CLASS WILL. 1928—Continued 14th. To Dolly Hinman, Mary Sampson’s ancestors. She feels she will not need them any more. She can face the world behind her own coat of paint. 15th. To Doris Duskin, Vernon Bertilson’s sunny disposition. 16th. To John Heaton, Lawrence DeWitt’s ability to debate, so that his arguments in class may be more effective. 1 7th. To Bessie Cyran, Gertrude Johnson’s slowness in speech. 18th. To Ward Bowman and Lawrence Sessoms, John Kronholm's and Ingvard Stensen’s reserve. 19th. To Miss Noonan, all of Betty Gibb’s discarded gum. 20th. To Ruth Shannon, Elizabeth Clapsadle’s athletic stripes so that Ruth may be able to wear them with a clear conscience. 21st. To Sidney Pautzke, Bertha Hoidal's driver’s license. 22nd. To Gudrun Maurstad, Bill Reed’s close friendship with Miss Harris. 23rd. To Frank Marsh, Hobart Robert’s place as “lady's man” of school. 24th. To any girl who has the desire to be student manager we leave Ruth Fralick's art of managing affairs in general. 25th. To Janet Cushen, Carmel Pompella's poise and lady-like manners. 26th. To Laddie Christensen and Bill Church in order to distinguish them as High School students rather than primary students, we leave Milton Morris's and Chester Gregory’s mustaches. 27th. To Luella Olson, Marjorie O’Connor's rolled stockings in order that Luella may become more collegiate. 28th. To Annie Thompson, Hazel O’Connor’s avoirdupois. 29th. To Mr. Barnett, George Preston’s ability to talk with the girls without blushing. 30th. To Miss Rahskopf, as she will need it in the long process of letting her hair grow, we leave Catherine King s excess hair. 31st. To Carl Haiti, we leave Cleve Parker’s place as assistant truck driver to Mary Monty. 32nd. To Miss Fellers, we leave a Calumet Baking Powder cook book to be used as she sees fit, but it is naturally assumed that she won’t use it to teach Spanish or mathematics. And we do hereby constitute and appoint the said Principal sole execu- tor of this our last will and testament. In witness whereof, W e, the Class of 1928, the testators, have to this our will, written on one sheet of parchment, set our hands and seal this thirty- first day of May, Anno Domini, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-eight.

Arlington 2nd 19 Marysville 2nd 0 at Marysville Football in 1927 started out strong, more than four teams turning out for he first work out. The first game of the year was with the Alumni on September 30. Although the Alumni team was made up of many famous old high school stars the High School showed them what they were by defeating them 18 to 0. The first scheduled game was with Anacortes on the Arlington field October 8. Arlington started out with a bang and defeated the “Sea Hawks” 18 to 6. Marysville was the next opponent. They were defeated by a fair score, even though the boys were not in usual fighting form. Burlington, the Eagles' next rival, was put under 28 to 0. It looked pretty sunny for Arl- ington now, but the next week Snohomish edged us out of an evenly fought game by one touchdown. On November 4, the team journeyed to Whatcom. The field was three inches deep in mud. Whatcom waded out of the contest with 1 3 points while Arlington failed to score. Sedro-Woolley came next, playing on our own field. We were beaten again, but by only one touchdown. 41 FOOTBALL. 1927—Continued Then came Stanwood who. though they put up a good fight, were not our equal. Arlington won 39 to 0. The last game of the season was played on Thanksgiving day at Kent, Kent winning the contest by two touchdowns. The Arlington High school football team completed a very successful season, considering that the Eagles only played the larger schools and the smaller schools that thought they were a match for them. They expect to do even better in the year of 1928. 42 Lawrence Sessoms (Red) Red holds down one of the wing positions. This is his second year on the team and he will be one of the best men for material for the com- ing year. VERN HlLD (Shortie) This is Shortie’s last year on the squad. Shortie was one of those guards who was often down at the bottom but never out. Clifford Underwood (Boots) Underwood is a hard hitting, fast, fullback. When it is a few yards we need Boots is all there. Under- wood has one more year with the team. Gothe Ob erg Oberg plays halfback. Gothe is there with speed and is a very re- liable man. Gothe is a senior this year. Gordon Connacher Gordon was in the hospital most of the year, however, in the few times he played he showed up well at an end or at half. This is Con- nacher’s last year. George Preston Preston is the triple thealt man of the team. Playing at quarter George shows not mean ability at kicking and passing as well as carrying the ball. Coach J. H. Hallock The man who has coached Arl- ington through six successful foot- ball seasons. 43 Lyle Lingo—Captain Lyle Lingo, captain of the team, played right half. Lingo is a power- ful ball carrier and a very sure tackier. This is Lingo's last year. Eugene Donahue (Rastus) Rastus also a senior, is Lingo’s running mate. He is a very reliable tackier and a hard man to get out of the way. Jim Dunn This is Jim’s last year of high school football. Jim is the pivot man of the team. Gifford Thompson (Giff) Giff plays a tackle position. Thompson is a big man and hard to remove. Milton Morris (Milt) Milton played right end. He is a deadly tackier and plays the game all the time. Robert Palmer (Bob) Bob played his third and last year with the team as a guard. Bob takes delight in smearing plays be- fore they get started. 44 Stanley States What States lacks in experience he makes up in stamina. States is a very reliable guard and will be even better in another year. Ted Meyer Ted was an alternate for half back. Ted is a heady, fast man and will be good material for next year’s team. Hugh Sessoms (Dutch) Hugh at quarter is the speed mer- chant of the team. He is a sure tackier and a ready quarterback. Ivan Larson (Swede) Ivan plays a tackle position. He has a peculiar habit of always being in his opponent’s way. Charles Rolling (Charlie) Rolling is the reason why many of the opponents’ plays are stopped. Charlie will be with us again next year. Melvin Borseth (Booya) Booya would be an aid to any line. He is big and fast, and tackles hard. Borseth has played three years and has another one coming. 45 BASKETBALL Arlington High School basketball squad completed a fairly suc- cessful season this year winning 3 out of 6 scheduled games. What the fellows lacked in point winning they surely showed in fight and spirit. Arl- ington had two teams this year of practically equal rank. It was no common thing for the second team to beat the first team. There was a large basket- ball turnout this year. So large a number, that those who were able were obliged to turn out after school. The lineup for the squad is as follows: Forwards ....................Preston, Hinman, Lingo. Center..........................Underwood and Larson. Guards Palmer, Donahue, Roberts and Borseth.

In the triangular meet held here with Monroe and Snohomish. Arling- ton came out in the lead with 72 points, scoring in every event. At Everett in the quadrangular meet with Burlington, Snohomish and Everett. Arlington was again victorious with 46J 2 points.

In the fall we played speed ball. Blue and Gold teams were chosen and played two games in which both won one. The speed ball sports day was held at Marysville. The Juniors won the interclass basketball games when they defeated the Seniors in the finals. The basketball sports Day was held at Arlington and two of our girls were chosen for the star team. The Volley ball Sports Day was held at Stanwood March twenty- third. Four girls represented Arlington on the star team. On February twen- ty-fifth ten girls went to the University of Washington to the annual volley ball Sports Day. They reported a very good time. A track and field meet was held at Monroe May twelfth. The girls tennis team played matches with Monroe, Stanwood, Edmonds, Marysville and Snohomish. Much of our success is due to the faithful coaching of Miss Joy Barclay and Miss Georgia Harris. 51 V r t Wo'A' yVftf'H' OnV «t p UooVx OV Ooryt) Sen or VVOW-7 ltiW-L ( v eeV ASSOCIATED STUDENTS The Associated Students accomplished a great deal this year and the plans have been carried out more efficiently than ever before The Board of Control has taken a more active part in conducting assemblies and other dC,mtie staged a vaudeville this year which was very succeccful and our athletic games were handled well and enthusiastically. The all-school play was a tremenduous success. All affairs taken up by the student body have been excellently and capably handled The Board of Control takes this opportunity of expressing their ap- preciation to the faculty, student body, and the public for their fine co- operation given them this year. Members of the Board of Control include: President Vice-President Secretary ........ Treasurer Business Manager .George Wendell Chester Gregory Margaret Nettles ...Hugh Sessoms ___Robert Palmer 55 GIRLS’ LEAGUE This year, which was the fifth year in our Girls’ League work, this or- ganization probably sponsored more worth-while things than ever in its hiistory. At our first meeting we were favored by two very interesting talks by Mrs. Bowman and Mrs. Jerome. Then followed our annual mixer at which the Seniors were awarded the prize for the cleverest number on the program. One of the biggest things accomplished this year by the girls was the col- lection of dues for Red Cross membership. The whole town was canvassed by the girls who acted under the auspices of the American Legicn auxiliary. The girls also accomplished many more things, among them being the buying of materials for the benches on the tennis courts, the ordering and sell- ing of refreshments at our annual County track meet, a leap year program on February 29, and also health talks to the girls by Dr. Leach, and adding sup- plies to the rest room. We feel that we owe a vote of thanks to Miss Harris for the wonderful help she has been in carrying on the work. Credit is also due the officers, namely. President. Ruth Jacobson; Vice-President, Evilo Chatten; Secretary, Louise Shannon, and Treasurer, Elizabeth Reinseth, and also the class rep- resentatives. Catherine King. Almeda Wrage, Bessie Shequin and Helen Cy- ran. We hope that this work may progress even further next year. —Ruth Jacobson. 56 TORCH SOCIETY The Torch Society, introduced in Arlington High in 1925. has be- come one of the largest organizations of the school, aided by the interest and co-operation shown by its advisor, Miss Joy Barclay. The Torch Society has been adopted by many schools of Oregon. Idaho. Washington and Alaska. The main purpose of this society is to promote and encourage scholarship. Members of the society are rewarded for their efforts by having the privilege of wearing society pins furnished by the school board. The pins are awarded according to the number of points earned by the student: A blue pin with one gold bar to those having twenty- four points, one having two gold bars to those having fifty points, and a torch to those having eighty points at the end of the third year. Torches are presented permanently to graduates having one hundred and ten points at the end of the senior year.

They indulge in baseball, basket- ball, volley ball and boxing. This year they played three games of basket- ball with the Snohomish Agricultural class and defeated them in all three games by a close score. Much of the success of the years work is due to the advisor Mr. Boyer who always showed the boys a good time at every meeting by finding some kind of sports to play in.

To become a member one must do a certain amount of work in public speaking contests. Points toward degrees are given for coaching or participating in debates, oratory and declamation. I his year four new members fulfilled the requirements and were admitted to the league. The active members now are: Miss Showell. Ruth Jacobson, Bessie Cyran, Edena Kamm, Lawrence DeWitt, Jay Johnson and Perry Johnson. —Perry Johnson 64 Artiuilipa A. H. S. NEWS The Arlington Eagle. or the “Arlington High News. as it was formerly called, was established in the Arlington High School in the school year of 1922. At that time it was printed as a one-page paper in the Arl- ington Times. In the year of '24 and ’25 the “Arlington High News was a four- page paper about its present size and was still printed at The Arlington Times. Late in 1925 a multigraph was purchased with the help of the school board. The multigraph not only gives the students a chance to print their own paper, but also affords a credit each semester for those interested in Print Shop and allows them to minor in an Industrial Course. The last semester of 1928 a Journalism Class composed of ten students was established under the supervision of Miss Jean Douglas and the Arling- ton High News was changed to The Arlington Eagle.” 67 DEBATE 1927-28 Schedule October 21, 1927—Sedro-Woolley (Aff.); Arlington (Neg.) November 18, 1927—Arlington (Aff.); Mt. Vernon (Neg.) December 6, 1927—Burlington (Aff.); Arlington (Neg.) January 13. 1928—Arlington (Aff.); Nooksack (Neg.) February 2. 1928—Arlington (Aff.); Sumas (Neg.) I he question under discussion this year was, ‘‘Resolved, That the Presi- dent and Vice-President of the United States Should Be Elected to Serve for a Single Term of Six Years.” 1 he Arlington High School was represented by two teams this year, which were well coached by Miss Showell. The affirmative was upheld by Ruth Jacobson. Perry Johnson and Jay Johnson, while Edena Kamrn, Bes- sie Cyran and Lawrence DeWitt represented the negative. The alternate for both teams was Ruth I.owe. This was the most successful debating s:ason ever enjoyed by the Arl- ington High School. The teams won all four scheduled debates. They lost the championship debate with Sumas, with whom they were tied for first place in the Northwest district. Both negative debates were held away from home. Arlington won both of these, one from Sedro Wooiley. the other from Burlington. The two scheduled affirmative debates were held at Arlington. The team won both of these, one from Mt. Vernon and one from Nooksack. The team earned ten out of twelve decisions in the four debates. Tliis is a very good showing, as the best previous record by Arlington has been nine out of twelve. 68 —Lawrence DeWitt. 69 GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB Under the leadership of Miss Noonan the Girls’ Glee Club has complet- , et a verY successful year. Thirty-five girls turned out at the beginning of the semester. The girls sang at the debate with Sumas and in the spring helped put on a fine Operetta. 1 he Girls' Glee Club in Arlington High School is recog- nized as a fine musical organization. 70 BOYS’ GLEE CLUB The Boys’ Glee Club under the direction of Mr. Kirsch has been quite a success this year taking part in the Operetta and singing in the as- sembly. There is a large quantity of talent in the Arlington High School that is showing itself this year and with a few years of experience we hope to have a very fine Boys' Glee Club. 71 —Cleo Walcher SEXTETTE I he Sextette, due to extra stress on other activities, did not get under full swing until the latter part of the semester. The Sextette practices Friday of each week under the instruction of Miss Noonan. The members of the Sextette are: Violet Mason Inez Preston Mildren O’Connor Alma Hodges Olive Keesee Mae Blacker 72 LIBRARY The library under capable direction of Mrs. Miller, progressed rapidly this year. There were a number of special librarians in the library doing such work as mending books, binding magazines, classifying and reclassifying books, and correcting the card catalog. The staff has been wonderfully supported by the student body and fac- ulty and this has been one of the most successful years of the library. We have a number of interesting new books in the library, both fiction and non-fiction. These are a great help to the students for reference, reports, and papers. During the first of the year the library staff staged a play in the assem- bly. This was done for the purpose of securing co-operation and aid in the up- keep of the library from the faculty and students. The library staff for the whole year includes: May Blacker Margaret Nettles Gertrude Johnson Olive Keesee Ellen Hickman Leora Barry Doris Duskin Evelyn Swalling Mabel Fett Ida Borseth Mathryn MacCurdy Gwen Connacher Bessie Hovelin Marie Anderson George Wendell 73 BAND The band this year has come to be one of the outstanding musical organizations of the school. Under the direction of Mr. Cronenberger the band has been increased to 16 pieces. They have played at numerous as- semblies, the County Track Meet and the Senior Play. 1st Trumpet ...................Arnold Kamm, Hoyt Ross 2nd Trumpet ................Marvin Johnson, Edwin Kimball Baritone ...................George Snelson, Herbert Clark Trombone ............ ......Ward Bowman, Fred Kamm Saxophone Donald Leach, Jack Peterson, Elving Kronholm Clarinet ...................Warren Bowman, Bill Murphy Piccolo ..................................Collin Johnstone Drums ......................Clarence Fowder, Payton Reid 74 ORCHESTRA The Orchestra this year although handicapped by lack of members showed marked improvement towards the end of the year.

We also thank the Student body of the Arlington High School for backing our work and making this annual possible. Much of the credit of this work should be given to our advisor, Mr, Boyer, who through his experience shows us how to obtain the desired product, an Annual, which we hope, lives up to the expectations of the Arlington High School. 76 Sramatira VAUDEVILLE The first dramatic venture of the year was a vaudeville given at the High School Friday.

Friday and Satur- day evenings, January 13 and 14. I he play has an unusually clever plot and abounds in humorous situa- tions. Mr. Simmons, senior partner in a paint business, has a marriageable daughter. For business reasons, he wants her to marry the junior partner. Mr. Binney. However, the junior partner is the kind of bachelor no woman likes. I he senior partner has the idea that every woman would like to get that man whom every other woman wants. Hence he conceives the idea of inventing a few love affairs for his partner. But with whom? He selects at random from the book shop some photographs of beautiful women, which afterwards unfor- tunately prove to be those of the Queen of Roumania, Mona Lisa, and a mov- ing picture star. The star is decided upon as the junior partner’s latest flame, and at the proper time the story is allowed to leak out. Soon “The Whole Town s I alking. All the girls, old and young, fall in love with him. and especially the daughter. In the midst of his glory, the picture star, on a person- al tour with one of her pictures, suddenly appears in town, accompanied by her husband, who happens to be a prize fighter. From here on there is a ser- ies of complications which work up to a climax of whirlwind hilarity. The play was directed by Miss Marion Barclay and was a great success. The stage force manged by Ivan Larson consisted of Milton Morris, Bill Murphy, Gifford Thompson, Lawrence DeWitt and Clarence Fowler. Gilmore Reese was electrician and Everett Bundt. property man. 80 ALL-SCHOOL PLAY Cast of Characters Henry Simmons, a manufacturer Harriet Simmons, his wife Ethel Simmons, their daughter ........

A Lucky Break. a farce comedy in three acts. It was given March 30 and 31 under the direction of Miss Marion Barclay. I he play was an unusually great success. In the story, John Bruce, born in a little town in Connecticut, returns after an absence of twenty years, to build a factory for his people. The land necessary for his factory is owned by his enemy, Abner Ketcham, who refuses to sell it. and plans to convert it into a cemetery. Abner’s nephew, Benny, a ‘supersalesman. undertakes to dispose of the cemetery lots by high powered salesmanship and relaxes from his labors by playing the trombone. John se- cretly plans to buy up ail the lots from Benny. A rumor gets abroad, however, that he has suddenly lost his fortune in a Wall street crash. Having fallen in love in the meantime with a girl who insists on marrying a poor man, he al- lows the rumor to go uncorrected. 1 o make his poverty convincing he takes a position of clerk at the hotel where he is staying. Complications begin to arise multiplied by Uncle Abner, the hotel guests, and Benny's trombone. At the right time, John rises above his difficulties, puts his house in order, marries his girl and buys Abner’s cemetery upon his own terms. The stage work was done by the manager, Ivan Larson, and his assist- ants, Lyle Lingo, Harry Hinman and Gifford Thompson. Lawrence DeWitt had charge of properties. 82 SENIOR PLAY Characters Martha Mullet, propiietor of Hotel Mullet.........................

Lelawala, daughter of Chief Wokomis, resolves to sacrifice her life in the Thunder Waters (Niagara Falls) to save her tribe from war. Lelawala is wooed by Shungela, a Wyandot brave, but is rejected since she loves Sowanas an Algonquin. She and Mabel, a white girl, are captured by Shungela, and Klolowar, Lelawala’s brother, is killed while trying to save them. The girls are rescued by Eagle Eye, a famous scout. Shungela is cap- tured by Chief Wokomis but Lelawala saves him. Lelawala is wedded to Sowanas and all ends happily, as word is received that the enemy is conquered and Lelawala need not sacrifice herself.

The climax was reached on the evening of Sept. 30, 1927. For an entire week preceeding this eventful evening the unfortunate members of the class of ’31 had been compelled to parade the school gayly bedecked in GREEN. To make matters worse, on the day before the Mixer the entire Freshman class were required to spend the day at school with their hair tightly curled. On this particular evening all Frosh entered by way of the fire-escape. Blindfolded and with their shoes removed they were led through an infinite number of tortures. First they were given a few worms to eat, (not more than six each) and afterwards, in order to off-set any ill affects that might arise from this unusual diet, a generous dose of medicine was administered. Paddles were wielded, paint applied, and a free aeroplane ride given. After this burst of generosity on the part of the Seniors, the Freshmen were asked (?) to walk in their stockings over a floor covered with spruce boughs. After this rather harsh treatment the poor Frosh were revived by a strong blast of oxygen from a compressed air tank. In order that they might make them- selves more presentable for the festivities of the evening, the Freshmen were allowed- to wash their hands in molasses and afterwards to dry them in fathers. Many of them objected to this method of improving their appear- ance, and these were allowed to wash their hands in a tub of water during which procedure they were subjected to an electric shock. An interesting feature of the evening was the pie eating contest, spon- sored by the Freshman class officers. The pie was furnished by the Seniors, and contained an assorted collection of raw potatoes, cotton and onions. After this excitment a social evening was held with the Junior class serving the refreshments. —Jay Johnson THE FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE PARTY The Freshman-Sophomore party is a party given by the Freshman for the Sophomores. This year the party was held the latter part of the first semester in the High Scohol Gymnasium. 1 he Freshman had the gym dec- orated very attractively in the Sophomore colors. Early in the evening there was a very enjoyable program put on by the talented members of the Freshman Class. Later in the evening dancing was enjoyed followed by light refreshments. 87 JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom of 1928 was held on Februray 24 in Legion Hall amid the beautiful decorations of coral pink and white and evergreen boughs. Not considering finances the prom was a huge success and was en- joyed by everyone. The Prom Committees Decoration: Alma Hodges, Margaret Johnston, Stanley States, Mel- vin Fingarson. Invitation: Cudrun Maurstad, Bessie Cyran, Doris Duskin. Punch: Mary Campbell, Lewis Larson, Perry Johnson.

The local press is often called upon to aid in educating people to “trade at home,” but is often overlooked by those it helps when it comes to buy- ing printing. We realize, of course, that there are jobs that are out of our line, but the majority of printed forms used in Arlington can be PRINTED IN ARLINGTON.
