With the school board he attended the many intricate details ot planning, compiled booklets of blue- print drawings for distribu- tion among district residents, and encouraged interest in the school issues. His steady, untiring efforts thoroughly paved the way tor the school of future years. cgCll00l BOGQJ The School Board this year was a solid foundation around which plans tor the new school were centered. Ever conscious ot the needs ol youth these conscientious men worked with Mr. Metz- ler, teachers, and students to maintain the high standards ot Beaverton High School.

Keeping records. typ- ing. and answering calls were only a part of her responsibilities. Miss Geraldine Sanford's helping hand first period each moming and at intervals through the day lightened the office work. Also assisting this year were second-year typists of the office practice class. Besides typing stencils for the faculty and pro- grams for the school, students of the class readily accepted other projects pertaining to office work. Upon the shoulders of Iames Schurman rested responsibilities ol the numerous odd iobs around school. In addition to his regular tasks. he drove the bus for athletic teams to out-of-town games. Mr. Schur- man cheerfully solved the stu- dents' many complicated locker problems. Mrs. Eva McGill lames Schurman Mary Kotrik works reqularlhl in the office with Mrs. MacGill and in San- ford.

As freshmen they spent one baffling year acquainting themselves with their vast, unfamiliar surroundings. Coming into the limelight as sophomores, four joined the ranks of student body officers: lim Lehman and Tom Courtwright, now both in the Navy, were yell leaders: Ianet Frances and Iohn Tennant tickled the ivories. Highlight of their third was the Iunior Prom, Dancing in the Dark with Iohn McKnight, general chairman. Filling student body positions that year were David Cady, treas- urer: Io Ann Wreisner, song leader: lack Greer. yell leader: and Norman Toelle, student body manager. Iohn McKnight and lack Greer ranked high in their last year as both were chosen student body prexies: Pat McCrum and Mary lane Martyn iotted secretary notes: LuVern Schmidt and lack Greer were vice-presidents: and Iohn Tennant, song leader. Classmates liked diminutive, pert Ann Hoskins for her enthusiasm and interest in school activities. Wally Bow- man, a quiet, congenial fellow, won the wholehearted ap- proval of fellow students. Seniors selected Ann and Wally to be featured on their page. Miss Geraldine Sanford, Miss Amarette Barnes, and Mr. George E. Bauder worked with the class through the last busy year. lst Semester OFFICERS 2nd Semester Earl Stoller , . , . Pres. , . . Elwin Paxson LuVern Schmidt Vice-Pres. Ierry Moshofsky Pat McCrum. Sec.

The Hummer earned sec- ond place in the state-wide journalism contest. At mid-year student body elections, Evelyn Marsh was selected as assistant editor to succeed Ed Harvey as editor for the coming year.

Entertainment for the members was furnished through skating and skiing parties. The G.R.'s also had a Christmas party with an exchange of gifts. The Girl Reserve room was redecor- ated and the furniture recovered. mak- ing the room more comfortable and attractive. During the year the G.R. club had a variety of interesting speakers on the subjects: Human Relations, Race Rela- tions, and The Way People Live in Other Countries. Climaxing the year was the bi-annual Spring Reign Dance. Queen Mary lane I, who was attended by her Royal Court, was crowned on March the eighth. Miss Dorothy Lundquist and Miss Lil- lian Maxwell were club advisors. The G.R. room is the center ot club activities. Pat McCrum First row-Pointer, Myers, Lindsay, Dysle, Kulbul Ricks.

Nanc fep 01.1, I The Pep Club is the dehydrated life and vital- ity of the school. Composed of four girls and four boys from each of the sophomore. junior, and senior classes plus certain student body officers, this peppy combination works hard every year to convince students that games are to be seen. not heard about. Besides advertising games and other impor- tant school events. the club can usually be found en masse at these games and events. They aren't the type to have just a finger in every pie: they climb in body and soul. Anyone seen beating his brains out over an enemy touchdown or raising the roof when the ball swishes through the home basket can be identified as a Pep clubber from way back. Working with the group this year were Miss Amarette Barnes and Miss Eleanor Zurcher. lst Semester OFFICERS Znd. Semester Norman Toelle . Pres. . . .

Under his watchful eye the com- paratively light but hard-cracking Beaver eleven stacked up eight wins with only one defeat marring their record. An Oregon State graduate, Coach Duncan was not outstand- ing on the gridiron while attending college: but he won varsity letters in the other two of the athletic Big Three , basketball and track. Dune , with his friendly smile and likeable personality, gained popularity not only among the sports-minded fellows but with the student body as well. Hats off to Dune for a splendid job of coaching this year's football, basketball, and track teams and for being an all-around good fel- low. ED BADER Organizing the B-squad football team at Beaverton was the task of Ed Bader, assistant sports mentor, as he undertook first-year coach- ing duties. On his first assignment he came through with flying colors, as he formed a smooth-running, T - formation eleven composed almost entirely of underclassmen. The many hours he spent with the squad in practice and scrim- maging was the foundation for a winning A-team of tomorrow. Mr. Bader graduated from Co- lumbus College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and was on the fac- ulty list of four other high schools before coming to Beaverton.

With the able guidance of Coach Duncan and assistant Coach Bader and the willingness of the boys. the team established an enviable final record oi 8 wins and 1 loss, bowing only to the champion McMinnville Grizzlies. Captains, as elected by the team. were: Earl Stoller, line captain: Gene Biggi and Iohn McKnight. back- field captains. Leading the league as a scoring com- bination with ll touchdowns each, Biggi and Mc- Knight gained the title of Touchdown Twins of the TYV league .

Composed largely of underclassmen, the squad dropped two close decisions to a heavier Hillsboro team. Coach Ed Bader's regular tutelage paid dividends as the season pro- gressed: several B squad men landed reserve varsity berths before the grid- iron schedule was brought to a close on Thanksgiving day. Willingness to work and mastery of the fundamentals of football more than compensated for the inexperience of the boys. B squad. lirst row-F. McNeeley. B. Voorhies. B. Smith, Z. Mulhausen, D.

Iohn and Earl were two-award letter winners, while Gene wears three stripes on his letterman's sweater. STARTING LINEUP Six graduating seniors and five jun- iors went into the makings of Beaver- ton's l945 starting line-up. Changes were made. however, when lineman Ioe Gervais and quarterback lack O'Connor were incapacitated by leg injuries: Ross was shifted to quarterback spot, Miller was initiated into center position, and Massingill was ushered in as lineman.

FROSH BASKETBALL A new addition to the TYV league in the '46 season was the frosh basketball league. lncluded in the league were teams fielded by each school of the TYV league. Housing, split-second action of excnarige games pro- vided first-hand experience for the novices: high school competition was new to these freshman hoopsters. Chalking up a neat number of wins, the boys proved that from their ranks will step winners of the future. B-SQUAD BASKETBALL A leading factor in the TYV B-squad league, the second-string Beaver hoopsters chalked up over one- half wins in the course of the 1945-45 basketball season, Freshman Duane Rasmussen, 6-foot 4-inch center on the team, and 6-foot 3-inch Gordon Kemmer. sophomore aspirant to future A-squads, made Beaverton a ruling figure in B-squad tussles. The boys, battling through the action-packed thrillers, proved themselves valuable material for future A- squads. E squad players-I. Cox E. Golloday C Tapper VV Miller 1.

At the close of the TYV league action. Beaverton had compiled a S-win and 7-loss record. However. in District tourney play the home squad soundly defeated Forest Grove in the opening round of court contests. The iinal game of the two-night affair saw Hillsboro and Beaver- ton in a battle for title honors. Hil-Hi, emerging victor- ious by a 38-25 margin, gained the berth of district rep- resentative to the state high school play-offs at Salem. Starting line-up of the 1945-46 club included Iohn McKnight, center: Bill Harter. Bob Whitworth. forwards: Gene Biggi and lack Ross, guards. Top scorer in the league and district tournament play was Harter, who amassed 141 counters: Whitworth and McKnight racked up totals of 124 and 112 points, respectively. Sharp-shooting Bill Harter was awarded a second- string forward position on the TYV Coaches-Players All- Star team. Iohn McKnight. rubber-legged pivot man, and Bobby Whitworth. a speedy. little ball-hawker gar- nered honorable mention. Completing the basketball roster were Denny O'Don- nell. Ed Harvey.

The squad was edged out of first place in the annual Hay- ward Relays at Eugene, when Scappoose's 18 points topped the Beaver score by 2 points. In a dual meet with West Linn the local team won by an over- whelming score of 89 to 33. The County and TYV league track and field contests were also copped by Beaverton, piling up 58 counters in the County meet and BU points in the TYV league meet. Second places were garnered in the District and Triangular meets: a third spot was won in the Beaverton Relays.
