Mrs. Henderson replaced Miss Ham-bly, the commercial teacher, who also left early in the year because of serious illness. Mr. Jackson Miss Spencer Mrs. Aldkrson Miley, President OriU The student cabinet, headed by John Miley, did a great job in keeping the. morale of the students high this year. They sponsored one of the most successful Bond Drives in the history of Arvada High School. Exchange assemblies, bigger and better social affairs, and better citizenship were the aims of the departments. Problems concerning the school were openly discussed in meetings of the departments every two weeks. The poll conducted by the Citizenship Department at the request of the Journalism class showed that the students felt they have a part in the student government and that they believe life in Arvada High has been made more enjoyable through the efforts of the student council. Haug, Vice-President ■■■ Correia, Secretary FINANCE DEPARTMENT i TORCH BEARERS, CLASS OE ’45 Betty Thode C(aii Jiistory As freshmen we started on our high school career by winning the first prize for our float in the Harvest Festival and sponsoring a picture show. In our sophomore year we were becoming more adapted to the nig school routine and again took top honors at the Harvest Festival. The junior year brought forth a little more. We sold confetti at the Harvest Festival and presented a play entitled “Ghost Bird. We S ve a Nineties assembly in the spring. Our prom for the seniors wras held in the Cathedral Room in the Albany Hotel. The senior year was well filled with the publication of the yearbook, the play, and the prom. During the year we lost several of our senior boys to the armed forces. As Don Fisk and George Bongers were class officers, Eloy Manchego and Mary Pearce were elected to take their places as persident and vice-president. As we take our leave, peace comes at last to A. H.

Davis, Lyle Bartels, and Ronald Lenhart, who also left before we were seniors. Most of these boys have been overseas. All of them are doing a great job and we wish them all the luck in the world. Homer Goodlett Don Bernard Boyd Peddycoart Max Priebe Walter Carson As we look into the prospective and optimistic future of the prosperous class of ’45, we see Caroline Cairns in Washington, D. C., as personal secretary to Joan Springer, who is now Secretary of the Treasury. John Miley, voted most likely to succeed by his class, recently took Roosevelt’s place in the White House. In New York we find Anne Lucci has taken over Arthur Murray’s dancing school and is doing a splendid business. We find Virginia Durham has started a school in which you learn “How to Swoon in Six Easy Lessons,” with Jim Haselwood as head “swooncc” Donna Shulenburg and Anna Mae Williams have taken over an Art Academy with Ed Stipe as their “right-hand man,” and Mickey Niblack and Eloy Manchego as models. Leta Faye Hotchkiss’ dream has finally come true now that she owns an exclusive beauty salon with such celebrities as Dinah Shore, Ginny Simms, and oh yes, the seventh Mrs. Elliot Roosevelt, the former Phyllis Jackson, as her best customers. Bob Koon is new starred at the Metropolitan Opera, even though he can’t carry a tune. Faye Peters can be found in an Italian restaurant putting out spaghetti and meat balls just like Mama’s. The “Three Musketeers,” Don Fisk, George Bongers, and Tom Warfield, are still doing a fine job protecting our coasts in Coast Guard. Also in New York are Daphene Judy and Marian La Chapelle starred in “The George White Scandals of 55.” Charles Rhoads is through West Point and is now commanding our Army. Gilbert Brunner is soon to be crowned the world’s wrestling.champion. Larraine Harris and Gloria Lawson have been doing a marvelous business with their animal hospital At the Vanderbilt estate you can find as caretaker, Max Haug, who has crossed a Mexican jumping bean with the flower of Jupiter. Results: Jumping Jupiter. Bob Neale is the caller for the National Bam Dance and can swing his partner mighty high. Betty Jo Olson is now editor of The New York Times with Mary Jean Runyan as top reporter. Ralph Taylor has at last perfected te’evision in color. Laura Jean Smith can be found at any time directing traffic at Time Square. Howard Morris, magician, got fooled the other night when he pulled a donkey, instead of a rabbit, out of his hat. Mary Lou Whyman, with her “motherly” instincts, is doing a splendid job with her “Girl’s Town.” John Gordon is busy flving passenger planes for Pan American. At one of the largest hospitals arc Rose Vanderhoof as dietician and Helen Miller as head nurse. Out in Hollywood we find lohn Jarrell, now tipping the scales at a mere 295 pounds, has succeeded Andy Devine. Betty Moore has gained a wonderful position as secretary for Metro Goldwyn Mayer Studios. We always knew that Dorothy Myers looks would get her some p’ace. She’s a top flight movie actress. And who do we find as camermen but Dick Mote and John Anderson. Bob Callaham, with his long blond hair, has become Veronica Lake’s double. Marjorie Wilson has taken over Harry James’ orchestra. On the other side of the world we find Verloise Longacre is now the Queen of England. Gordon Gorrell is touring Europe with his world famous German Band. Back home Bob Crowe has taken over the local funeral home. Says he, “This is sure a dead place.” Betty Thode is still at good ol A. H. S. trying to pass her Spanish course. Dean Corbin has settled down on the farm with one of those good-looking girls from North High. On a chicken farm we find Barbara Rodda and Betty Sue Stone rising and retiring with the chickens. John Wilcoxson has sett'ed down and married. Says he, “I sure get tired of washing dishes.” Eddie Lark is still trying to make his old Plymouth run. Don’t give up, Ed., it will go some day. Bob Rock is busy rolling bones. No not dice, he is a bone specialist. Out at Stapleton Field, Betty Lindsey and Mary Pearce are rising stunt fliers. Bob Wuetig, with beard and side whiskers, has done much work for the Denver Board of Health. Ronald Alexander has at last realized his life long ambition—he reached the six-foot, two-inch mark recently. Hilton Baugh is shocking everyone with his electrical inventions. Any resemblance to persons, living or dead, in this dissentation is not purely coincidental. All rights reserved by.............................. Uodiketgohwetn, Inc. Joe Stelmack Jiremahers, CLsi of 46 The junior class is sponsored by Miss Burrus, assisted by Mr. Hovde. This year the junior class sponsored a play, “Foot Loose,” presented by some of its members. This year it also sponsored the selling of hot dogs and punch at the football games. As it is the tradition of the school, the juniors will give a prom for the seniors. When sophomores, they presented a Hill-billy play as their class assembly. i Don Spencer The sophomore class, headed by Elsie Covi as president, Don Spencer, vice-president, and Don Baugh, secretary, are playing an important part in the history of A.H.S. in the line of sports, talents and cooperation. Last year, they gave an assembly displaying individual talent and will truly be remembered as one of the highlights of the year. Bill Allen, Vice-Presiden The freshman class of this year have not been very active except in band and sports. In future years we know that they will be more active and will soon be leaders in the school. I Harry Thode, Secretary Jencler 8th (jracle A junior high student government, patterned after the senior high’s was started last year, but didn’t really get under way until this term. Responsibility and leadership are shown in their assemblies and other activities such as basketball. They also have their own cheer leaders. We’re expecting much of them as our future freshmen. The eighth grade this year was sponsored by Mrs. Swanson, Mrs. Marin and Miss Bowen. Although this is the seventh grade’s first year at the high school, the newcomers have accomplished a feeling of good will toward their classmates and have taken part in all the junior high activities. Next year this class will have even more achievements to their credit as eighth graders. The sponsors of the seventh grade were Miss Jones and Miss Spencer. WENDT, PARK, WAITS, Department Chairmen j redentiny the s lthletic Vandkrhoof Weber head football coach, and Hovde, assistant coach, are both pleased with the Redskins five winnings and three losses in football last fall. Miley, quarterback, and Bongers, end, were on the All Suburban team. I here were 11 fellows from the senior class on the team. Basketball team, coached by Vanderhoof, held true to the fighting spirit of A. H. S. by ending up third from the top in the league. We, the seniors, are hoping next year’s team will keep up that fighting spirit. Wrestling team coached by Hovde, came through with flying colors at top in the league, and placing three places in the state meet. Track is another sport greatly enjoyed by the students of A. H. S. every spring. Arvada always docs exceptionally well in the league, district and state meets. Weber is coach for this sport. Bongers and Miley Hovde and Weber Sulurban cjCeayue .Standin 9s- TEAM W.

Having won the league championship for seven consecutive years until last year the track team is hoping to regain its position as title holders. This was the first year that wrestling was made a Suburban League sport. It has been a very successful year for Arvada. In the District Meet, held at Wheatridgc High School, we placed first, which made us the Champions in the League. The League Champs were Don Baugh, Elmer Werth, Jim Hazelwood, and John Miley. In the State Meet, held at East High School, we placed ninth. We made a total of 12 points, which was good. Don Baugh and Elmer Werth placed second, and David Brewer placed third in their prospective weight classes. a xampions Cheerleaders: Myers, Peters, Vanderhoof With 62 members our Pep Club this year gave out with their drills and yells. During football season the Pep Club drilled with the band and twirlers. This was a new idea in giving drills, and worked out very nicely. The Pep Club gave their annual Valentine dance February 10. Officers elected were: President, Marjorie Wilson; Vice-President, Mary Pearce; and Secretary, Laura Jean Smith. Pep Club was sponsored by Mrs. Thompson this year. A whistle blew, batons were raised, and the twirlers came into view. With their flashy satin uniforms and hats, Arvada had every reason to be proud of them. The two seniors, Betty Sue Stone and Anna Mae Williams, were head majorettes. Anna Mae Williams Senior PL y With personalities typical of the characters, “Speed” was presented in a real life production. Sponsored by the seniors April 5, 6, and 7, it was a great success. junior A breathless audience was thrilled by one of the most brilliant plays of the season. It was “Foot Loose,” presented by the Juniors, December 7, 8, and 9. Students who joined the staff the second semester -Arrow Staff 1 ,.o0 ft S' ? toW o 5 ° Date Quiz THE fc£DSKIN A 0 A. HOW a „ Vi ' K ylol Ae FIRST SEMESTER STUDENTS Journalism became a full credit class this year. The Redskin Arrow Staff of twelve students with Virginia Durham as editor and Mrs. Marin as sponsor did a splendid job in publishing a paper every six weeks. As means of money making they sold tags for the football and basketball games. Pou,-Wo«, Staff Editor Betty Jo Olson screamed and tore her hair. Her only reward were blank expressions from the staff. Finally the yearbook was under way! Hours of taking pictures, putting pages together, and finally the result— 1945 Pow-Wow!!! We, the members of the staff, sincerely hope you enjoy the 1945 annual after our many hours of hard labor! (If you think this book is crazy, just take a look at the kids who made it up.) Our swell artist, Anna Mae lJ3raiS Sextet Public performances in Arvada and Denver were the highlights for the Brass Sextet composed of Billy Ashton, Gordon Gorrell, Gilbert Brouse, Lynn Cook, Frank Schooley, and Pete Brewer. They received honors at the State Music Contest held in Denver. Hjuiic rtmenl A swell band of 75 members presented a number of public performances including concerts, holiday programs, joint drills with pep club during football season, and parades boosting the War Bond Drives. This year has proved a red letter year for this organization for with it have come new uniforms. Orcliedti ra Thirty members met every morning before school in the band room that they might have a fine orchestra. Ruth Rahricht was chosen president. During the year this group entertained many organizations. or ud Consisting of 54 members, eleven of which are boys, the chorus sang numbers for Kiwanis, P.-T. A., church groups, concerts, and many other public gatherings. j5 Eddie Lark future Jarmerd -America Future Farmers of America went far this year under the leadership of Eddie Lark, president, and Clifford Lawson, reporter. With the addition of new and better equipment in the shop, the boys had a more interesting year than ever before. Eddie Lark and Jim Ladner, delegates for Arvada to the State Farmers Convention, were awarded the State Farmers Degree, the highest award to be awarded by the state. Jim and Bill Allen won second and third places on their stock in the Arvada-Wheat-ridge Kiwanis Beef Show. Mr. Vanderhoof, sponsor, also took the boys to the annual National Western Stock Show in Denver in January. Jim Allen future JJomemciLerd The Future Home-makers of America, under the sponsorship of Miss Gourley learned what was needed for making a success of their future homes. With the help of Mrs. Lumsden, they helped in making and serving the school lunches. listers The Big Sisters did a lot to help the freshmen along this rear. Some of their activities included parties and group discussions on problems of interest. All in all it has been a successful year. The officers were: President: Mary Pearce; Vice-President: Dorothy Myers; Secretary: Anna Mae Williams; Worship Chairman: Mriry Lou Whyman; Program Chairman: Betty Thode; Constitution Chairman: Anne Lucci; Publicity Chairman: Betty Jo Olson. m ad This club was organized for the purpose of making things for the school. They made posters, and stage scenery when needed. Holiday posters, war posters, and posters for art exhibits were some of their accomplishments. The club has been very useful to the school, and under the supervision of Mrs. Shulenburg has been very successful. Mechanical Drawing is directed just as a class and is not an activity. One difference is that they are graded only once a semester. The class is composed of 17 boys and each boy is able to do his work at his own rate of speed. It is a very interesting class and more are expected to attend next year. A final amount $122,000 was attained by the students of the high school, junior high, and grade school in the Sixth War Loan drive, November 20 to December 16. The first quota of $75,000 was easily reached and a second quota of $100,000 was set which was exceeded by December 6. John Miley, student body president, assumed general chairmanship of the entire campaign with members of the cabinet assisting. Fern Peters was elected bond queen. War bond prizes were awarded to Bonnie Gardner, Shirley Olson, contest winners. jf apooiei 1. —John Jarrell 2. —Virginia Durham 3. —-Joan Springer 4. —John Anderson 5. —Laura Jean Smith 6. —Lorraine Harris 7. —Mary Pearce 8. —Caroline Cairns 9. —-Bob Rock 10. —D.
