The Stillaguamish Trail Arlington High School 19 3 0 3 Spiratum As a slight token of appreciation for eight years of service as our Principal and Superin- tendent, with regret for the passing of daily association, and with best wishes for years of happiness and service in the new field of labor, this book is dedicated to our friend— Iflarii Hulamau Vomitorii THE PURPOSES OF EDUCATION The development of a strong mind in a healthy body. A mastery of those fundamental processes that are essential to success in every walk of life. The development in knowledge, the ac- quisition of positive habits, and the growth in ef- ficiency that are necessary in making a living. A development in culture sufficient to assure a liking for, and an appreciation of, the better things in life. A preparation in good citizenship that will assure the championing of things that are right and the condemnation of things that are wrong: a citizenship that will express itself in a life of service to home, school, and country.

Syd Pautzke was elected President and Dot Skillingstad Vice President. I he painful event of our first year was the Freshmen mixer, which was enjoyed by all upper classmen, but at the expense of the Freshmen. After becoming full-fledged members of the A. H. S. we participated in the ac- tivities of the school, including different clubs and sports. We had the honor of winning second place in the Intercless Basketball tournament. I hen, to show our gratitude for the Mixer, we entertained the Sophs at a successful F reshmen-Sophomore party. When the summer vacation was over, we came back to pursue our studies under the important title of Sophomores. This year Thelma Evans was our President. Sad to say. during this term nothing much of importance happened, because we were deeply en- gaged in our studies. But when spring came, we awoke from our long sleep, and won first place in the Interclass Basketball Tournament. 1 he Junior Year was a peppy one. First, we carried off the banners for Salesman- ship. 1 his was accomplished by getting a high percentage in Associated Student drives and ticket sales. It was a happy day when both Home Rooms, nine and ten, got one- hundred per cent in the Annual Drive. To top all these activities, we again won first place in the Interclass 1 ournament. We had about five letter winners in athletics, in which Carrol Jacobson w'as an inspiration to the rest of the team. 1 o balance our athletic activities we also participated in scholarship awards, thirteen, but not unlucky Juniors belonged to the Torch Society. One of the major events of this term was the Junior Prom, given in honor of the departing Seniors. This proved to be a huge success. In 1929, we returned again to complete our High School career. The Seniors had a major part in athletics, there being ten football lettermen, and five letter winners in basket- ball. 1 hat the third time is a charm proved to be true, because again we won highest in the Interclass Tournament and the Interclass Track. 1 his was also a year of Salesmanship. We had one hundred per cent in the Asso- ciated Student Drive and Annual Sales. The Senior girls showed their dramatic abilities by winning first place in the Girls’ League Vodvil. I he second semester was one of numerous activities. We chose “Expressing Willie for our Senior Play, and it was very successful. I hen after laboring for four years we enjoyed the privileges of going on a Senior Sneak and—Oh, Boy! By FRANK ARNOT Borghild Gilbert Katherine Johnstone 16 3fl Unitur (Elaas Iflill In the name of God. amen We. the Senior Class of Arlington High School. City of Arlington. County of Snohomish and State of Washington, of the age of lour years, and being of sound and disposing mind and memory and not acting under menace, fraud, ardent spirits or any other spirits, or under the Influence of any person wnatever, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testament, in the manner following: ARTICLE I Certain members of our honored group have requested that certain character traits which they no longer need, but which will compensate for grave deficiencies in certain lower classmen be given to the needy ones. We have not only granted this but allowed each bequeather to write his own will as follows: Section 1. I. Stanley Robinson, do bequeath my girlish giggle to Eunice Bowman. Section 2. I. Andrew Olson, do bequeath my manliness to James Hauschildt. With this added power l believe James will be irresistable to women. Section 3. I. Peggy Shudshift, do bequeath my graceful figure, beautiful blond locks and dancing grace to Helen Verd. Section 4. I. Howard Mickelson. do bequeath my wavy locks to Jack Peterson in order that he may receive full value from the application of Stacomb. Section 5. I. Dorothy Skllllngstad. do bequeath my sweet voice and clear enunciation to Rose Donovan to replace her southern drawl. (Miss Donovan is not. however, an underclassman. Pardon our carelessness.) Section 6. 1. Allene Sampson, do bequeath my baby face to Maxine Stout. Section 7. I. Helmer Ness, do bequeath my magnetic charm to Earl Carnes. I believe this will relieve Earl of worry concerning his grasp on Martha. Section 8. I. Bessie Shequin. do bequeath my athletic build to Lila Aldridge. Section 9. I. Rollen Speer, do bequeath my patent on my very distinctive haircut to Mar- cella Meyers. Section 10. I. Prank Arnot. on account of my Scottish descent, do not wish to give away any of my characteristics unless paid a reasonable price for them. Section 11. I. Everett Bundt. do bequeath my attractiveness in the eyes of Freshmen girls to Charles Mathews, who. trv as he does, cannot wdn the heart of one of those precious fawns. Section 12. I. Sydney Pautzke. do bequeath my good looks, winning smile and tender heart to Leonard Pittman. I do this that Agnes may be loved, cherished and cared for while I am away at college. ARTICLE II Section 1. We. the Senior Class, do bequeath to Anna Lunnum a broadcasting station capable of working on a large variety of wave lengths, enabling Anna to broadcast a message to any stu- dent without disturbing the entire high school. „ ,, Section 2. As a convenience, wc will the services of Robert Boursaw. Oswald Clauson. Rollen Speer and Raymond Prather to install the set. which will arrive at Earnharfs bicycle shop in time xor the fall term. ARTICLE III We the Senior Class, do bequeath to Jack Frame the latest model hand-operated foamite fire extinguisher. The fine quality, tough elastic foam emitted from this instrument will prove of value in offsetting the high coloring which results from a blush and will also offset any tendency of the cuticle to burst into flames because of the heat generated in the blushing process. In the future, when Jack feels a blush coming on. all he need do is reach for the foamite. ARTICLE IV We the Senior Class, do leave to Mack Barnett our beloved class advisor, a contract with John Wrage which we believe will be a godsend to him. The contract demands that Mr. Wrage deliver ten (10) quarts of milk daily to Mr. Barnett’s doorstep. Wo have arranged that delivery start immediately, fearing that he might disappear entirely if the present state of affairs should continue Tor over a fortnight. We also leave him full right to substitute Virginia La Flamboy and Nona Peterson for Dot Skllllngstad and Bessie Shequin for his daily conversation in the halls. ARTICLE V We. the Senior Class, do bequeath Miss Susman a case of Ovaltine. so that Mr. Hartz will not seem such a monster in her dreams. ARTICLE VI We the Senior Class, do bequeath Mr. Hartz. our new' superintendent, a hammer, screwdriver, and pair of pliers. Mr. Hartz will find these instruments indespensible in repairing the master clock located in his new offices. ARTICLE VII We. the Class of 1930. do nominate and appoint Les Williams. President of the Junior Class, as the sole executor of this, our last will and testament. ARTICLE Vm The foregoing Instrument, consisting of 5 pages. Including the page signed by the testater. was at the date thereof by Frank Marsh (representing the Senior Class), the maker thereof, signed in our presence and in the presence of each of us. and at the time of his subscribing to said instru- ment he declared it his will, and at his request and in his presence, and in the presence of each other we have subscribed our names as witnesses thereto.

However, Hoidal, star backfield man, was unable to partici- pate because of a cut ankle, which kept him out of play until late in the season. Also Williams, another backfield man, was out of some of the games because of injuries. In spite of these handicaps the Eagle football squad, under Coach Harold Shidler’s instructions, made a good showing. About fifty-five boys turned out for football at the beginning of the season. Coach Shidler issued strict training rules and held skull practices in the mornings. The hard work caused the attendance to drop, until there were about thirty-five permanently turning out. Les Williams, captain, was voted the most inspirational player this year, and Mar- tin Hoidal was elected captain for next year. The school is proud of all her players, who fought hard throughout every game. With twelve lettermen returning, prospects for next year are bright. These veteran players with new material coming from the underclassmen, should provide a team of which Arlington will be proud. Alumni ......................... 0 Arlington .......................

This is Mr. Shidler's second year with Arlington High. In these two years he has greatly helped the athletic organizations of the school to become a greater success. Martin Hoidal (Captain-Elect), Halfback. Though out of most of the games with a lame leg. Mart played excellent football in the later part of the season. He will be one of the best men for material for the coming year. Bill Winsor, Guard. Winsor proved himself a very dependable guard, doing good work throughout the season. Carroll Jacobson (Jake), End. Playing his last year in high school athletics, Jake was the savior of many situations. His work in knocking down passes and running interference was especially good and his presence will be missed next year. Jack Johnston. Quarterback. Small but scrappy. Jack had the stuff and showed it. Jack returns for more. Luke Tyrell, Halfback. Luke and his sturdy figure have been an im- portant cog in our eleven for two years. He was always a sure ground gainer and an accurate tacki- er. He goes with the class of ’30. Les Williams (Captain), Fullback. Les, playing his second year of first team ball, was an outstanding star of the team. He was bat- tling every scrimmage and ended a successful sea- son. One more year for Les. Ray Prather, Guard. Ray was heavy and slow, but had a wealth of nerve. When he went after his man he brought him down and could always be counted on to do his part. He is leaving this year. 32 Warren Bowman (Fat), Tackle. From the start of the season Fat played a steady game. Few plunging backs got by his tackling, while he always did his part in opening up a hole. He was green but with a year of experience be- hind him his next year should be good. Earl Carnes, Quarterback. Earl always snaggled his man and was a bul- wark of defense and a tiger on offense. His help on next year’s squad will be welcome. Elmer Erickson (Eric), End. Eric 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 coming year. Howard Michelson. Halfback Though not so big Howard was an able half and his wiry form was seen in many scrim- mages. Howard will not be back. Eddie Oberg, Tackle. As one of the heaviest men of the team Ed- die finished a very successful season. With two years of football ahead of him he should develop into a star. Charlie Wrage, Center. Charlie played as an alternate for this year, whenever he was in a game he was giving all he had. Charlie has still another year with us. Francis Jacobs, Tackle. He played a tackle position and did very good work. He will be back next year. Frank Pulliam, Center. At the center position this year was Frank Pul- liam. He is a veteran of last year’s team and al- ways good in the game. Frank’s football career at Arlington Hi. is over. 33 Clarence Fowler (Red), Guard. Red was an aggressive and tireless linesman. He could open holes or plug them at will. We will see him again next year. Frank Marsh (Mush), Halfback. Frank packed a wicked pigskin when he found a hole and many yards can be credited to his ground-gaining ability. Frank graduates. Syd Pautzke, End. Syd was a fighter through and through. If any- one got around Syd’s end he was a mighty good man. Syd leaves this spring. Paul Wesson (Dlackie) Guard. This is Paul’s second year. He played a good game and will be back for next year. Bob Boursaw, Tackle. Heavy, reliable and always game. Bob proved a great linesman. He was a man of great value to the team. He is leaving this year. Herb Clark, End. Herb was always ready to do his stuff and is back again next season and a great deal is expect- ed from him. Stanley Rodal and Gordon Duskin, Mgrs. Small but efficient, these two boys helped make this a very successful season. 34 laskrtlrall Basketball results this year were better than usual. Out of the eight league games played. Arlington won four and lost four, placing third in the A League. For the first time in a number of years the F.agle basketeers qualified to play in the County Tourna- ment held at Snohomish. In the tournament the breaks were against Arlington, and the Eagles lost in their first game with Monroe 24 to 21. In the F.dmonds game we also lost. This was the clos- est game of the season. Three extra periods were necessary to determine the winners. I hese two losses excluded the Eagles from further tournament play. With only three lettermen back from the preceding year. Coach Shidler proceeded to build a team that developed into a speedy, smooth-working combination. In nearly all of the games the scores were very close, proving that the Eagles were equal to the rest of the league teams. Unfortunately besides Winsor, Seigel, and Tyrell graduating this year, we also lose two other valuable men for next year. Frank Pulliam, captain for this year, will be too old to participate, and Warren Bowman will move to Seattle for next year. However, with three experienced players, two of them with two years of experience behind them, coming back next year, the Eagle basketball team should win its way into the tournament again. 1U2U-3H £ rhfiUtlf Edmonds .........................16 Marysville ................. ....19 Sunnyside .......................15 Arlington ........................24 Snoqualmie .......................33 Arlington ........................22 Edmonds ..........................24 Arlington ........ ........ .....17 Arlington ..................... 29 Arlington .......................1 7 Arlington .....................| 2 Arlington ....................17 Arlington .....................1 4 Stanwood .....................17 Arlington .................... 9 Monroe ...................... 16 Arlington ....................20 Marysville ...................1 2 Stanwood .....................17 Monroe .......................12 35 3fl LES WILLIAMS, Forward Playing in both center and forward po- sitions Les proved to be one of the most valuable men on the team. His shooting chalked up many points for Arlington. Les will be running in fine form for next year's five. JACK JOHNSTON (Captain-Elect), Forward Although hindered by sickness through- out the season. Jack was a tireless work- er and always gave all he had. Jack will be back next year to captain the team. FRANK PULLIAM (Captain), Forward Playing for the last time as forward on Arlington's basketball five, Frank held down his position as captain in true Eagle form, fighting on the floor in a manner which only one of his experience and spirit could. Almost throughout the season he was high point man. JOHN REDEEN, Guard Not very big, but one who is in the game fighting with all he has all the time. John is a guard possessing the abil- ity to out-guess his opponents and break up their plays. He is a senior and will not be back next year. NORMAN SATIIER, Guard All Norman lacked was experience to make him a real star. His head was seen in the thick of a tussle. Norm has two more years with us. LUKE TYRELL, Forward Never complaining, always trying and giving his best. Luke has made a name for himself at Arlington High. This is his last year. GEORGE SIEGEL, Center Joining the ranks for the first time in his school career. George soon proved him- self to be one of the best Arlington had to offer. Filling the shoes of Les whenever necessary, he played as pivot man in his best style. This is George’s last year. WARREN BOWMAN, Guard Every inch a fighter. Fat checked through the season brilliantly. Fat will be performing again next season. BILL WINSOR. Forward Always ready to take up where the others left off. Bill was a valuable man. He could hold his own among the best of them. Bill graduates this June. 36 tirark Arlington track met with good success this year. Arlington participated in three meets before the county meet. The Arlington track team, with many men back from last year, won all three. The first was with Mount Vernon and Anacortes on April 5. Arlington scored 56 1 -4 points. Mount V ernon, 38 1 -2; and Anacortes, 31. The second was with Monroe and Buckley. Arlington won easily with 68 points; Buckley, 36, and Monroe, 21. The third was with Burlington, Monroe, and Coupeville. In the county meet here on May 3. Everett, by winning the relay and acquiring a total of 34 points, won. Arlington took second with 31 points, and Snohomish third with 26. Snelson, running the mile in 4:48 bettered the former record of 4:52 3-5. Arlington sent six men to the district meet at Mount Vernon. Of these two qualified to go to the state meet: Thomas in the 220-yard dash, and Williams in the broad jump. With many lettermen coming back next year, Arlington should do as well or better than this year. 37 urmtta 1 he Arlington High School Tennis team completed a season, which, though not all to be hoped for, was more successful than last year’s. hive matches were won, four of which were singles. The first doubles, however, were the only ones who got past the preliminaries in the county tournament. 1 he team consists chiefly of underclassmen, and in a year or two should make it- self heard from in the county tournament. A large part of the success with which the team met, is due to the advice of the coach, M. F. Barnett. The Singles were: Virgil Peterson Jim Hauschildt Doubles: Bill Murphy and John Redeen Amel Tveit and Lowell Beath —Jim Hauschildt. 38 CSirla Athlptirs Girls' athletics, a prominent feature in the activities of the high school, has com- pleted a most successful season. The first part of the year was spent in playing speedball. Sports day was held at Snohomish on October I I. The girls who make the first squad were: Dorothy Guthrie, Clara Maurstad, Vivian Dooley, Helen Verd, Alyce Dunn, Evelyn Olson, Bessie She- quin, Eleanor Russell, Irene Hoidal, Alice Johnson, Louise Eberhard and Ruth Shannon. The next sport was volley ball. Sports day was held at Sultan, January 1 1. The girls on the first squad were: Bessie Shequin, Dorothy Guthrie, Peggy Shudshift, Phyllis Underwood, Hazel Knights, Wilma Mold, Louise Johnstone, Eleanor Russel, Olive Botten and Eunice Bowman. Basketball was the next diversion, sports day being held at Arlington, March 1 5. Peggy Shudshift, Alyce Dunn, Nora Botten, Dorothy Thorsen, Irene Hoidal. Evelyn Olson and Marcella Meyer formed the first team. 1 he later part of the year was devoted to track, baseball, and tennis. The track meet was held at Snohomish, May 12. Much of the credit for a successful year is due to the coach. Miss Georgia Harris. (bids 3lntcrrlass J tlilrtirs Girls’ Interclass athletics this year were in the form of volley ball and basketball.

The first games which were between the Seniors and Sophomores, and the Juniors and Freshmen, were both won by the upper classes. The climax of the series came on the third day when the Seniors and Juniors staged a classic battle for the championship. The surprising feature of the whole series was the showing of the hreshmen against the experienced upper classes. 1 he game scores were as follows: Seniors 13 Juniors 27 Seniors 14 Juniors 20 Sophs 11 Seniors 14 Sophs. .........................I) Frosh ..........................14 Frosh ..........................13 Frosh .......................... 8 Frosh ..........................10 Juniors ........................13 dlntrrrlaaa (irark iflrrt At the close of the basketball season attention was turned to track.

Win- sor, of the Senior class, who was ineligible for county competition, was high-point man. No new stars appeared, but the consistent performance of the lettermen from last year promised well for a successful track season. 40 Organizations Development of Leadership ftrapunaibilitira yramtatr to alinulbm that ran rarry ttjrm, anb ymnrr flotna tn qJAj tbr nnr that knnnia hatn.” —Albert Subbarb Aaaoriatpii S’twitpntH With two hundred sixty-five student members the Associated Students this year reached a higher standard of better school government and a greater interest in school ac- tivities than ever before. 1 his is clearly shown in the business-like manner and co-operative spirit of the stu- dents which made our basketball season a decided success. Also, a much needed electric clock system was installed through the efforts of the students in the Curtis Publishing Company Contest. The student council, organized last year by Miss Harris, is composed of the fol- lowing representatives from the home rooms: Room 12, Everett Bundt; Room 10, Paul Wesson; Room 9, Helen Cyran; Room 7, Martha Shudshift; Room 6, Ken O’Laugh- lin; Room 5, Earl Apker; Room 4, Louise Contento; Mech. Dr. Room, Thelma Maur- stad; Room 1 R., Bessie Blake; and Room 1 I, Charles Peterson. It is the purpose of this organization to afford more direct contact between the students and the school gov- ernment and to promote interest in activities. Through this system the ticket sales staged were successful, the home rooms valiantly contesting for the much coveted first and second salesmanship banners. The Board of Control, composed of two faculty advisors—Miss Harris and Mr. Shidler, and the five officers of the student body—Luke Tyrrell, President; Les Wil- liams, Vice-President; Monica Krauskoff, Secretary; Douglas Krauter, Treasurer; and Bill Winsor, Business Manager, led the student body through the progressive and finan- cially successful school year.

O. T. Club has made an enviable record in Arlington High School. The original purpose of this club was to stimulate interest in science and literature and to afford pleasure and entertainment to its members. It was organized on September 20, 1927, as a combination of the former literary and science clubs. The name, T. O. T., was sub- mitted by Ward Bowman, and means “Topics of Today.” Its meetings, which are scheduled for the first Tuesday in every month, were supposed to consist of a literary and scientific program, usually presented in the auditorium and an entertainment of music and dancing in the gymnasium. Due to the difficulty in preparing a scientific program the club voted to dispose of the science and have the program entirely literary. Among some of the good times that the members of this club this year enjoyed were: a Valentine dance, a May-Day party, and the annual club picnic which was held at Williams’, Lake Stevens. 45 —Catherine Sill. tayli' (Club 1 he Eagle Club, an organization of all the letter men of all sports, made its initial appearance late in the fall of I 929.

National Jfomuiir ICrarnu' 1 he National Forensic League was organized in 1925, to promote interscholastic forensic work. It has societies in every state in the Union. Membership in the League is based on the point system; points are awarded for participation in debate, declamation, extemporaneous speaking, and oratory. There are four degrees that are awarded for earning points in this type of work. They are: the degree of Merit, given for having earned ten points; the degree of Honor, for earning thirty points; the degree of Excellence, for earning sixty points; and highest of all, the degree of Distinction, which requires one hundred points. Very few high school students attain the highest degree. In Class A, the class to which Arlington belongs, twelve points are given to the captain of the Debate team for each debate they have won, and eleven points are given to each of the other members of the team. Five points are given to each team member, and six to the team captain for debates that are lost. The person who wins an Oratorical or Declamatory contest gets one point for each school in the contest. I he Arlington chapter was organized on December I, 1926.

If we have to any con- siderable extent fulfilled this purpose, we are content. It is fitting that we here publicly thank those who have contributed material and in other ways helped to make this annual a success. Especially do we wish to thank Mr. Boyer, whose assistance has been of the greatest value to us. 49 (Orrlu'iitra Although the A. H. S. Orchestra was not fully organized until the second semester under Miss Ayers' direction, much progress has been made during this school year. Forty students (some from grade school) responded to the call for recruits for the orchestra, and practice was held during the last half of the fourth and fifth periods. I he orchestra attracted much favorable comment when it made its first appearance, assisting at the all-school play “Man or Mouse” on Friday, March 7. The orchestra also played several selections at the American Legion Vaudeville held in the High School auditorium, March 20, and assisted in the various other school productions during the remainder of the school year, notably the Senior Play on May 9 and 1 0. By graduation the orchestra loses Dorothy Skillingstad and Ray Prather. I o Miss Ayers is due much credit for the remarkable progress made by the orches- tra this year.

This organization suc- cessfully took the place of the girls’ and boys’ glee clubs during the second semester of the school year. The mixed chorus made its first formal appearance on March 7 when it sang several numbers at the production of the all-school play “Man or Mouse.” Those graduating this year are Ray Prather, Katherine Johnstone, Anna Mangis, and Dorothy Skillingstad. The Mixed Girls’ and Boys’ Chorus under the direction of Miss Ayres has been very successful, and we hope that it will become a fixed organization of the Arlington High school. The following composed the chorus: Tenors: George Seigel, Ray Prather, George Snelson and Charles Mathews. Sopranos: Katherine Johnstone, Lena Hoidal, Anna Mangis, Dorothy Skillingstad. Basses: Dale Kamm, Edwin Kimball, Clinton Walcher, Bill Hill, Joe Wagner. Altos: Kate Hart, Rena Amy, Ruth Shannon, Irene Hoidal. 51 Stags’ (fhrartrt As one of the most popular musical organizations of the Arlington High School, the Boys' Quartet, under the instruction of Miss Ethel Ayres, has accomplished much in the way of musical entertainment this year. Besides assisting at various school assemblies throughout the year, the Boys’ Quar- tet was invited to sing at numerous banquets by the following organizations: the Lion’s Club, the T. O. T. Club, the Commercial Club, the Methodist Church, and the Snoho- mish County Lettermen's Banquet. I his year the quartet presented an act in the annual High School Vaudeville on Friday and Saturday nights, October 1 I and 12.

Last fall, with only two experienced debators left from last year. Coach Rose Don- ovan faced an uncertain future with a negative team composed of Martha Shudshift, Ev- elyn Olson, and Martin Bloxham, and with Ruth Lowe, Warren Bowman, and Martin Bioxham forming the affirmative squad. But experience came as the teams cinched county honors and took third in the district. This is the third successive year in which the county banner in debate has come to rest in the Arlington High School at the close of the season. —Martin Bloxham The Declamation contest this year was held December 6 at Marysville. Arlington's representatives were: Bethene Collins, dramatic: Martin Bloxham, oratorical; and Mar- tha Shudshift, humorous. Martin placed second, and Martha first in their respective di- visions. (Bethene’s place was unannounced.) Instead of having a semi-final and a final contest as has been the custom, only one contest was held this year. 53 Arlington taglr Editor.in-Chif.f ................................Dale Kamm Assistant Editors .................Maxine Stout, Gertrude Lien Sports Editor ..............................

The plot was as follows: 1 he Willoughbys and the Van Horns have long been associated in social and busi- ness enterprises. Russell Van Horn, just out of college, accepts Jonathan Willoughby’s offer to place him in charge of one of his road construction gangs. Russell encounters violent opposition from Joe Dawson, junior member of the construction company of which his father is the head. Joe is in love with Peggy Lou McFadden, daughter of Mrs. McFadden, proprietress of the Homestead Hotel. Peggy Lou is attracted to Joe because he possesses the fighting spirit with which she herself is richly endowed. Ruesell. who is also in love with her, is a physical coward. Capitalizing on this. Joe arrays his forces against the young engineer. However. Peggy Lou finally brings Russell to a realization of his cowardice. The result is that in a fight with Joe Russell is victorious. After that he is not afraid and faces life bravely with Peggy Lou to help him. 1 he stage force managed by Frank Pulliam, consisted of George Seigel and Orvis Forbes.

Over one hundred students, or nearly one-third of the school, are enrolled in the department, which is under the direction of Miss Ethel Ayers. Special stress has been laid on accuracy but in spite of this many more awards have been earned than ever before. Arlington sent Helen Verd, Lorena Beath, and Evelyn Olson in the first year di- vision, and Zelma Larama, Bessie Shequin, and Doris Carlson in the second, to the county contest. Helen Verd won first place for speed in her division. Besides those who were in the county contest Arlington also sent Dorothy Skillingstad and Ray Prather in the first year and Marcella Meyer in the second, to the state contest.

The entry hall and check room were decorated with streamers of alternating coral and white. Over the lights in the main hall were hung big balls from which streamers reached to an immense ball of solid white which hung from the center of the hall. The orchestra stand was clev- erly decorated with streamers and roses. Punch was served from the adjoining dining room, which was similarly decorated. Excellent music was furnished throughout the evening by Loney’s Dance Band. I he dance programs, which were in blue and gold with gold printing on the covers, were very attractive. Not considering finances, the Prom was a huge success and was enjoyed by every- one who attended. ■prmn (Eommtttrrs GENERAL Les Williams, Catherine Sill, Joe Wagner DECORATION Warren Bowman, Payton Rf.id, Martin Hoidal, Monica Krauskoff, Elmer Erickson, Jack Johnston PUNCH June Marxen, Helen Verd, Marie States, Frank Pulliam INVITATION Helen Cyran, Evelyn Olson, Dorothy Thorsen, Alyce Dunn MUSIC AND PROGRAM Marcella Meyer, Ruth Shannon, Douglas Krauter 63 Jf its linunt - p lui umiT |Jartu On November 1 5 the Frosh and Sophs met for their annual party.

CLmmtu ifuntball tfruiquct On Tuesday evening, December 3, the annual Snohomish County Lettermen’s ban- quet was held at the Arlington Congregational Church. Delegates attended from thir- teen schools: Arlington, East Stanwood, Edmonds, Everett, Gold Bar, Granite Falls, Lake Stevens, Marysville, Monroe, Mukilteo, Stanwood, Snohomish, and Sultan. Hec. Edmundson, University of Washington track and basketball coach, the prin- cipal speaker, spoke on sportmanship, the training and sacrifices that an athlete must make, the Carnegie Foundation, and the commercialization of athletics. Larry Westerweller, star University of Washington end and president of the Big W Club, also spoke. Coach Shidler was toastmaster of the evening: Talks were made by men from each of the schools represented. The banquet was served by the high school girls. Entertainment was provided by the A. H. S. music department, with two numbers by Johnny Shannon and Art Nelson. Much credit for the success of the banquet is due to the efforts of Mr. Hartz, principal, and Coach Shidler. 64 —Howard Mickelson. 19 (Utr (irati 30 Jt r Ci'ZCK fH if t . ini. bruin He knocks em dearf ‘—'Ll_____ 1h' tjf Oixr f 65 Srhunl (Hi'U'brttii'ii � BILL WINSOR spent several years in Sedro-Woolley. his home being there. Among his first play- things was a stuffed Jack rabbit. This affected his mental reflexes and caused him to grow up with an otscession for high hurdles. Bill is quite good at this when properly startled with the startler's gun. SYD PAUTZKE finally discovered his talent (two bit piece) when he crashed into dramatics. His specialty is the deep, dark vllllan. Svd has tried athletics and has a good engine, but his clutch slips, and he can't get started until it is all over. BESSIE SHEQUIN is training as a successor to Miss Harris as athletic director. She swings a mean tennis racket, and heaves a wicked baseball. Her specialty, however, is swimming. Be- tween times she lets Mr. Hartz help her run the school. BOB BOURSAW is the Rudolph Valentino of the High School. Bob pursued many girls without success, but finally, by training for track, he was enabled to catch up with a small one. Bob also ambled over the high hurdles pretty well when he could get an outside lane and only have to Jump hem with one leg. DOROTHY SKILLINGSTAD plays the lead when the play requires a lovely lady. Dorothy has many suitors, but none of them seem to suit’er. Beside dramatics Dorothy’s chief claim to fame is the way she can make the piano set up and beg. BILL MURPHY is the only Inmate of Arlington High who can make William Jennings Bryan and Will Rogers look silly. When Bill opens his mouth and shuts his eyes wit and wisdom flow on automatically until he finally «ings himself to sleep. Bill also busted into print as the organizer and officers of the Big X Club. EVELYN OLSON has red hair and wears it every day. She can talk an arm off a wooden Indian. She talked herself into several sales championships and then got on the debate team and nearly talked them into the same fix. Her gentle voice may be heard at almost any time by listening Intently. EMMETT THOMPSON halls from the wilds of Lakewood and has in stock the largest assortment of hand made, assorted selected, new and second hand alibis that has ever been as- sembled by one person. It is conservatively estimated that he has enough left to last him for two more years BILL HILL is the lovely lady of the masculine contingent. Put Bill into a little paint, powder. chiffon, and millenery, and the boys can’t help but love her. Bill’s other specialty is spring fever. Bill has been training to be a general for the past two or three years. ifrcsbman lutles of (CtmiUtct ADOPTED BY GIRLS' LEAGUE 1. Don't slap. push, or strangle any boy you’re walking with.

Jay marched up to his colonel and saluted. “I would like a leave of absence, Sir.’ “What for?” querried the officer. “My wife wants me to help her move. Sir.” I don’t like to refuse you, said the colonel, “but I’ve just received a letter from 67 your wife saying that she does not want you to come home because you're more bother than help.” I he soldier saluted and turned to go.

At last she became angry. “Young man, she cried, “you look after the driving and watch where you are going. I’ll tell you if it starts raining.” Why did you leave at the end of the first act?” Well, take a look at the program here.
