WELLS OUR- SUPERINTENDENT By modernizing the Astoria city schools and by a curriculum study program, which he started in the beginning of the l95l school year and which will continue through next year, Superintendent of Astoria Schools, Thomas A. Wells, hopes to put Astoria Schools on the map. The program, in which teachers met to evaluate and revise their curriculums, was city-wide. They had speakers and counsellors present at these meetings, the chief counselor being Dr. Hugh Woods, from the University of Oregon. Superintendent Wells also brought to Asto- ria state inspectors to determine the feasi- bility of making repairs and improvements to the high school building, and to report their findings to the school board. During Mr. Wells' first six months as principal of Astoria High School, he expanded the stu- dent council and, with the combined efforts of the council and the student body, stopped freshman initiation. Former principal of Hood River High School, Mr. Wells earned his B.A. degree at Pacific University and his Master's Degree in Education at Oregon State College. OUR PRINCIPAL VICE-PRINCIPAL STUDENT BODY PREXY Providing a curriculum which will meet the needs of each student as an individual is the motivating factor of Mr. Bush's endeavors as principal of Astoria. High. Mr. Bush was born in Bemidji, Minnesota. He came to AHS as vice-principal and dean of boys with the class of '52, and became principal the year the '52-ers became mighty seniors. Mr. Bush received his B.S. from Bemidji State Teachers' College and his M.S. from the University of Oregon. A quiet disposition and sunny smile are character- istic of Mr. Ralph Lind, Astoria High's vice-principal and dean of boys. Mr. Lind taught Social Problems and U.S. History at Hood River High before coming to Astoria. He went to school in Portland, Oregon, and earned his Master's Degree in Education at the University of Oregon. Understanding and assistance, given by Mr. Lind to those with attendance or sched- ule problems, are appreciated by both students and faculty. Dick Steinbock, Astoria High's amiable student body president, has a state-wide reputation as one of the best student leaders in Oregon High Schools. This was demonstrated by his excellent showing at the i952 Student Council Conference in Hood River. Born in Portland, Oregon, Dick entered AHS in l948, was class president as a sophomore, and became second vice-president of the student body in his junior year. Our prexy's studying student government and parliamentary procedure won praise for him from Mr. illard B ar, ate e ucati official. 7A I B az bertC.Bush,Ra1DhLind, M, D M!

FACU AHS teachers had a busy year belonging to one of the four faculty committees- general advisory, activity, parent handbook, and faculty handbook-selling tickets at games, and advising classes and clubs. Most of our instructors signed up for exten- sion courses. They also can boast a lOO per cent membership record in both the 3 i TY g Oregon Education Association and the new curriculum study program, introduced by Superintendent Wells to give the city teach- ers an opportunity to meet to discuss and evaluate their curriculum programs, For these activities, Astoria High teachers gave afternoons and evenings as well as days to professional work.

The class of '52 was the first freshman class to enter Al-IS since i924 and the first to present a Freshman Frolic, In their junior and senior years they were the first to present two comedy plays instead of the traditional mystery, and they were the first to graduate in a combination of white gowns and maroon gowns. As frosh, they took spelling honors, organized a freshman rally squad, and produced active Finger- ling teams. Besides producing an amusing talent assembly and contributing some outstanding athletes, the '52-'ers sponsored The Gay Nineties in their sophomore year. The class members had their first dramatic experi- ence when they presented Three Blind Mice , later they gave their Junior Prom, Realm of Mystery . The Little Dog Laughed , the senior class play, had its audience rocking with laughter, while the Ball, Rhapsody in Blue , brought out the artistic talent in the class. lron Curtain Day and stu- dent management of the City Government were also innovations with this class. From them they learned the workings and advantages of democracy. Page 'l3 I i r ' E M245 JlfTnfDzLmlf' LA 7:lUlUT7K7:177f'7U I r 9 ' 'I V af i f' I I v i n' ,. 137 .

They sponsored a terrific Freshman Frolic, presented a St. Patrick's Day talent assembly that touched all Irish hearts, and yelled their lungs out during class competition. As sophomores, they went off into space and sponsored 2000 Plus as the Soph Hop. They were active in initiating the first homecoming and, with such a large enrollment, they shouted their way to cham- pions in class competition. The members of the '53 Class were extremely active in the school clubs and activities. During their junior year, they scraped deep into their pockets and won the March of Dimes contest. lt's a Great Life , a three- act comedy presented at the Armory, was an outstanding play, thanks to the talent of this class. In the spring, lt's a Fairy Tale was the theme of the Junior Prom, which fitted right in with the season. All these additional activities have not seemed to injure the juniors' lungs for they are still leaders in class competition at pep assemblies.

The class of '55 arrived at AHS rather scared cmd startled, but they recovered in time to walk off with the first prize with their Fish Boat float in the l95l Home- coming parade. The Frosh have been a very active class. They took it upon them- selves to polish the time-tarnished trophies and placques. They also brightened up the school by producing original posters sup- porting the new AHS Creed. They proved that they had talent to spare when they shared billing with the seniors in a talent assembly. The freshmen took a newly re- quired orientation course, which helped them to understand the time-honored tra- ditions of the school. With very little trou- ble the class has fitted into the AHS pot- tern. tTopl First Row: Upham, Andrus, C. Anderson, F. Bechtolt, Cochran, Cordroy, Culiff. Second Row: Darnell, F. Denis. B.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Twenty-eight underclassmen met the re- quirements of the Junior National l-lonor Society this year. Besides being in the up- per one-fourth of their class scholastically, membership in this society depends upon the student's character, service, -and lead- ership. In the spring this society held an induction ceremony for all new members before the entire student body. First Row: Friedrich, Carter, Iverson, Rinell, Moberg, See- borg, Fremstrid.

Page 36 DEAN'S LIEUTENANTS Were you ever without a pencil or caught without a hanky sometime during the year? lf you were, you probably went straight to the Dean's room where there was a friendly lieutenant waiting to serve you with pen- cils, kleenex, cough drops, safety pins, bandages, and medicine. A girl was there each period in the day to help you if you were ill or in need of any of the services offered and sometimes even advice when the Dean was out. This job has its respon- sibilities and is an asset to any one inter- ested in social work. Fahlstrom, Norgaard, Sauer, Peterson, MeKendrick, Steele, Jackson, Mrs. Lewis, dean of girls. GIRLS' LEAGUE CABINET With the theme, Fishing for the Future , the Girls' League got off to a good start by holding an adoption ceremony and a get- acquainted party for the big and little sisters. The policy of holding a Girls' League assembly every month was found to be very effective. The cabinet sponsored three mother-claughter teas for the different classes and two public assemblies. All the activities of this group helped to achieve the League's purpose to encourage and foster fellowship among the girls of this school, and to take an active part in all school activities.

BAND AN D MAJORETTES One of the most active organizations at AHS is the band, which was organized in l9-47 by Harold Withnell, its present direc- tor. It provides an opportunity for instru- mental music training for any student inter- ested. Many shows were put on during the football season for half-time entertainment, featuring the seven majorettes under the direction of Betty Jo Howe and Joanne Koski, who were a valuable part of the shows. For these entertainments they prac- ticed at night and during the third period. Many extra hours were put in for a lighted half-time show in Portland during the state football semi-finals. They marched in three downtown parades with their co-workers, the Fisherettes. Help- ing to plan some of these events were Presi- dent Russll Anderson, and council members, Joyce Seeborg, Susan Anderson, Lois Sim- son, Jerry Rogerss, and Carl Zatterlow. Stu- dent directors helped during the pep assem- blies when Mr. Withnell was otherwise occupied. This was good experience for both directors and the band members. Then came the annual spring concert at Suomi Hall with much new and hard music to be learned Much progress has been made since l9A-7, thanks to many extra hours of hard work.

Organ- ized on September 3, l95l, they have acted os a supplement to the band by helping to do a greater variety of forma- tions. Their uniform consists of yellow sweaters ond purple skirts. Much recogni- tion has been given to this hard-working unit. This is the first group to be organ- ized ot AHS for the express purpose of marching.

Barker. Serving with the president, Alan Stone, are Lafe Whetstone, Pete Niemeyer, and Dick Kelm, who made up the chorus council, while Dave Puffinburger and Dale Truax were their representatives to the student council. Stressing interest in group singing among all of the boys of AHS was the main purpose of this busy group. Knowledge of music was not definitely required, since popular songs only were sung by the boys. The Girls' Glee Club, under the able direc- tion of Dale W. Barker, is the girls' train- ing group for the a cappella choir. They enjoy receive good experience and also their work at the same time. The group sang five numbers at the Christmas pra- gram, numbers at the spring concert, and they appeared before the entire student body. They helped to raise money for the music fund by taking their turn with the band and the choir at selling ice cream. The Glee Club's president was Cleo Schenk and the council members consisted of Doreen Thompson, Beverly Bray, Joanne Koskela, and Virginia Patson.

' Nucleus for this year's staff was the sec- ond period journalism class, who did most of the story writing for the paper. The staff put out a special Homecoming edi- tion, April Fool's edition, a Senior edition and a special colored Christmas edition. The sports staff also put together a foot- ball dope booklet. This year's paper was noted for its circus make up, a fluid second page, an original and clever sports page, and its pictorial news. To stimulate journalistic effort, Oscars were awarded to students who wrote the best news story, feature, sports, editorial, and column each issue. The Astor Post is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association. Delegates were sent to the Oregon Press Conference, the Pacific Slope Scholastic Press Conference, and the high school journalistic- writing competitions in Forest Grove. Advising the staff were Fern H. Curry, literary adviser, and Anna Marie Friedrich, business adviser. Mary Luu Hull Edits:- Larson Art Editor Shaw Business Manager Welch Covers H us hy Covers Simmons Sports Lamb Business Adviser Jensen Art Adviser Curry Editorial Adviser ZEPHYRUS ln keeping with the Lewis and Clark theme, the Zephyrus cabinet followed through with the idea of a rugged, wooden cover. After the theme was decided, Editor Mary Lou Hull divided her staff into committees to handle the different aspects of the book. The cover committee secured the plywood, and covers were cut and trimmed by shop classes before being sent to Portland for refinishing. After the pages were assembled and stapled by the Astorian-Budget, the staff completed the binding. Ron Larson supplied designs for cover and division pages, under the supervision of Mr. Jensen. Business manager, Sue Shaw, under the direction of business adviser, Miss Lamb, garnered 500 subscriptions providing a substantial fund with which to work. Much credit should go to James Bingham, photog- rapher, for supplying the snaps. Another new feature was taking the indi- vidual junior and senior pictures in an improvised studio set up in the Astor Post- Zephyrus office. Most of the actual plan- ning and writing for the book was done during evening sessions at the home of Miss Fern Curry, adviser.

Returning letter- men who paced the squad were Ron Brown, Wally Thomas, Phil Thompson, Dick Steinbock, Denny Soderman, Jim Bacon, John Webb, Jerry Smith, .and Don Pettett. Although quite a few senior tracksters will graduate, a good season may be looked forward to next year as Coach Segale took pains in develop- ing talents of underclassmen. First Row: P.
