But with determined spirit, she fought her way back to Bellevue, to help guide us over the route ahead. For four years, Miss Hardy, teacher and friend, not only has taught us the intricacies and pleas- ures of mathematics, creative writing and BEACON publication, but also has helped us through a difficult period of our lives, in which, still on the fringe of boyhood and girlhood, we PROVED: ITS WORTH must try to assume the responsibilities of men and women. Long after theorem 79 and postulate 12 are forgotten, we will remember the cautious word of warning, the humorous anecdote, the fun, laughter and hard workin room 206. Above all, we can never forget the person who has done so much for all of us. We can think of no better way to show our sincere appreciation and heart-felt gratitude, than by the dedication of this, the 1954 BEACON, to Miss Martha Hardy. 7 THE SPIRIT OF THE WOLVERINE We look into The brove, bold force of Elmer, ond wish he could 'rell us whof is in his Thoughfs. Bur we know that in his heolrf he corries The spirit of freedom, of courogeous defense of whot is righi. He is our symbol of loyolfy, sporfsmonship ond love of Bellevue. ri-,Q MR.

PAUL LUND ek Z 'V THEY PROMOTE SPIRIT FROM BEHIND THE SCENES Dr. Fernley Duey, who in his own Bellevue school days, chose the Wolverine mascot, says, The spirit is older than the name-yet with each year the 'Wolverine Spirit' continues to grow. It is easy to speak of 'Spirit,' but without results, mere speech is hollow. In Bellevue there is no hollow sound-the famous Wolverine deeds are echoed everywhere. j X EH QW '- f- ff - -Wax' ,f Wd , 'IO r WWW .I ,Mf1rWfwW friive The Citizens' Advisory Committee, a group of Bellevue High School's adult sponsors, are under the spell of the famous Wolverine Spirit which inspires them to work vigorously for better school facilities and higher scholastic standards for all Bellevue young people. We, the high school students, strive to cooperate in the same spirit, by working for the good of our school and community. MRS. ALICE KOLB MRS. WILLIAM CARKEEK MR. MARIO STORLAZZI MR. GEORGE BRAIN mr? THE CAPTAINS OF Mr. George Brain, Superintendent ot Bellevue School Dis- trict, voices his feeling about the spirit in these words, The pursuit of life, with its trials and rewards, demands the loyalty, perseverance, courage and cooperation of all participants. The attitude towards this game of life, displayed by students of Bellevue High School, is truly symbolic of the 'Spirit of the WoIverines.' MRS. ALICE KOLB MR. ALANSON POWELL 'i 'W ,ff OUR SPIRITED TEAM Mr. Alanson Powell, Business Manager of Bellevue School District, and Mrs, Alice Kolb, District Secretary, express the Spirit ot the Wolverines in all their work. They stand firmly behind the students, and it is their ardent wish that the spirit of high endeavor shall motivate us through high school, through higher spheres of learning, and into the business and profes- sional world. 4 Z wmv ,f 'll Qi t ' ' ,,, W X tt A Ziwffil A A .A '15, ,, f fl X .A f f W4 5?

In a school like Bellevue, where there is the spirit of honest endeavor, warm friendliness, sincere cooperation cmd clean com- petition, every student has a chance to put forth his best efforts, achieve his best results, cmd lay a firm foundation for his future. 12 Nowhere is the 'Battling Spirit of Bellevue better shown than in the high school Parent-Teachers' Association. Every Wol- verine parent is ready, willing and able to put up a real tooth- and-claw scrap for the best educational and recreational oppor- tunities for all their little Wolverines in the den under the tower on top ofthe hill.

This year's officers have been looked up to as our leaders, giving us ex- cellent examples of guidance and inspiration. Student Body President Dave Bird has success- fully completed his term of office as head of the executive department, seeing that acts of the Board of Control are enforced. He has conducted all student body and council meetings, and ap- pointed committees to investigate and promote school activities. I have learned a lot, said Dave, in handling all situations, and I enjoyed working with the ad- ministration and students. I consider being chosen to represent the students a privilege and honor. Vice-President Lorrine Stromberg has been Chairman of the A.S.B. Court and A.S.B. Historian. Also chairman of the assembly committee, Lorrine I6 deserves credit for the fine assemblies this year. Sueko Suguro, Secretary, has displayed diligence and perseverance in her office, as main link be- tween students and council. I have greatly enjoyed working for the stu- dents and I hope that I have helped them have a better understanding of school affairs through the minutes, Sueko said. The Treasurer this most successful year has been Paul Heckard. Paul is the first iunior in many years to hold an A.S.B. office. He has made monthly financial reports to the council, disbursed all money upon requisition of club or activity ad- visors, and has been our business manager. With the growing of Bellevue High School and its problems, these officers deserve much credit and thanks, for without their expert guidance and inspiration it would not have been possible to have had such an exciting and successful year. OUR SPIRIT CONCENTRATED HERE Spirit was certainly popping at Bellevue this year. Among its many accomplishments in '53-'54, the A.S.B. Board of Control sponsored the pur- chase of a popcorn machine, a snappily popular success with the students. But this, contribution to everyone's noon-day happiness-was only a kernel onthe rich cob of the Board of Control's services to Bellevue. Weekly, the A.S.B. President's gavel called the Student Council in order to discuss the many problems of the student body. Since weekly meetings of all students were not practical, the council was com- posed of one representative from each first-period class, the A.S.B. officers and all class and club presidents, to function as representatives of the students. The Council formulated and enforced provis- ions of the constitution, made policy, interpreted regulations and suggested improvements. The year's first event, the good-fellowship Welcome Dance, was followed up with the gala Homecom- ing, with Queen, Court, and dance in traditional football fashion. Bon Voyage headlined the Variety Show, with many talents uncovered. But not the least talent uncovered this year was the genius of Andy Studebaker at running the pop- corn machine at noon and during athletic events. A hot topic for discussion at council meetings was the points system, limiting the student's par- ticipation in activities. The council exchanged meetings with Clover Park and Foster to learn how their student bodies work. Violations of school rules were handled by the A.S.B. Court, with its jury consisting of a boy and girl from each class. One of the most popular features of the council's work this year was the arrangement of many more assemblies, made possible by the new gym.

Every boy in school is a member of the club, and although the organization was unable to have meetings as a whole group, it functioned well through its council, which consisted of repre- sentatives elected in second period classes. Reg- ular reports were taken back to the classes by the councilmen, and discussed by the students. One of the outstanding features of the program for 1953-54 was the part played by the club in 18 helping landscape the campus. The boys did a great deal of work planting shrubbery around the stadium, and generally helping with the beau- tification ofthe grounds. This year's club was more than usually success- ful in unifying the boys into one coherent group, promoting democratic ideals, school spirit and good sportsmanship. The annual Dads' Night was held in the spring. Fathers and sons ioined in a double-header base- ball game, followed by a substantial dinner. 'vw LEFT TO RIGHT: I-:E e C::f J: Hedges, Cars!

This year, under the guidance of Mrs. Gustin, the girls chose the merry-go-round theme of Carousel for the annual Girls' Club Tolo. The main obiective of the Girls' Club program was to foster round-robin friendship, with everyone friendly toward everyone else. This pro- ject was well carried out under the friendly leader- ship of Margaret Iverson, president. The most tangible evidence of Girls' Club activ- ity this year was the production of the Bellevue Handbook, a compilation of Bellevue traditions, regulations, officers, and other matters of interest to all students. The handbook was available to everyone. The Smorgasbord repeated its customary suc- cess, supervised by Elizabeth Carlson. At Christ- mas the girls showed their spirit by a party for needy children. lt was Sue Spaulding who led the girls through the happy spin of Carousel, and then in the spring came the year's climax, the fashion show and mother-daughter tea, the usual dainty, tasty occasion. 'I9 C L A S S E S O O O I THE SPIRIT or THE CLASSES IS NOT CONFINED TO GAMES, DANCES, BOOKS IT NEVER DIES, BUT AS BOYS AND GIRLS MOVE FORWARD, THE SPIRIT OF THE CLASSES LIVES ON, WHEREVER KIDS ARE FOUND. THE SPIRlT OF '54 IN REVIEW Staging dances, plays, assemblies, and win- ning the basketball attendance plaque for three years, are a few examples of the Spirit of '54. Four years ago, the class swung into Bellevue life with the true Spirit of Elmer, a zest that promptly showed itself in lively frosh activities. There fol- lowed the livelier sophomore year, with its dance, Cupid's Capers, then a dreamy iunior term with the prom, Fantasia, in a pink-and-black dream- land. It Happens Every Spring was the juniors' tribute to the Class of '53 at the junior-senior ban- quet. Suddenly came senior year, with all its whirl of excitement - the chuckles of the class play, the rollicking antics of the senior assembly, the high spirit shown forth at games by both senior players and rooters. Last but not least, came the senior ball, Celestial Mood, which left the class with stars in its eyes. Wistfully, the seniors now look back over their high school career, its joys and successes, its sor- rows and frustrations. Keenly they feel the pang of knowing that never again will they experience the thrill of being a part of such a wonderfully close-knit group as that class with the Spirit of 154.11 FRONT1 Dick Powell, Steve Bassett- BACK: Judy Nlorris, Dean Secord, Barbara Fenton, Charles Carpp, Carol Ivlawin , , 1 wuq f My V Q I ,ff 5 f 15, 7 V 5 ,1 1 if M 'Mtv C -WW X-I 1 '53 M 2 tr W fig ft if I if Ifjf kj Wt.

It you doubt it, some junior will prove it to you, as the class has proved itself in many activities. Their beautiful Madonna won the Christmas window contest. Their snowbirds almost exclusively composed the ski team. Their performers sang, danced and cavorted in variety show and all-school play. Their celebrity, Paul Heclcord, was A.S.B. treasurer, and Liz Carlson was junior girl-ot-the-year. Lucky February T3 saw the prom, Sakuri Mat- suri, a cherry-blossom ball, highlighted by the crowning of Queen Suzanne and King Yuji. The BEACON sees the juniors almost monopolize the Honor Society picture, and the cruise saw them on their private yacht. The junior-senior banquet saw them salt the spuds with sorrow that the '54's are leaving. But then came the picnic, and reali- zation that next year the '55's will have a pic- nic all year long, as seniors! 37 Nw 1305? www 1 'lfiqsifvii piiuw ffm, ww eww 1 W7 ,fm frm? V.

This spirit was kept at a peak by the capable guidance of the class acl- visors, Miss Judy Hagebak, Mr. Arthur Haines, Mr. Samuel Ruberg, and Miss Jean Hammerly, and the class officers, who best exemplifed this soph enthusiasm. The sophs had the honor of putting on the first dance in our new gym. They did iustice to this honor in a big way with their hop, Gaite Pari- sienne. The spirited sophs transformed the gym into a street in Paris, with a model of the Eiffel Tower the crowning achievement. The co-chair- men, Allegra Arkley and Gordon Dickman, and the various committees were well-rewarded for BE SOPH ISTICATED their work by the success of the dance. Another success that the sophs chalked up was their sock dance, Jingle Bell Jive, given after one of the basketball games. The sophomores further expressed their exub- erance in the Variety Show, and by their active participation in clubs. In the All-School Play and in sports they also displayed their various talents. The Honor Society membership showed the names of a large number of the class of '56, showing their class to be a well-rounded one. On the last day of school, as the sophomores made their carefree way to the traditional picnic, they enioyed the happy memories of one more year of high school life - planning, working, and playing, together, with success the result.

The first kind they re- vealed was a surprise to everybody -the spirit of salesmanship - which they unleashed to win the contest for selling the most season football tickets. Their reward was a sock dance, Pumpkin Prance, at which the Spirit of Halloween flew in with punkins full of fun for everyone. ln Feb- ruary, the frosh presented another shoeless shuffle, Cherry Tree Chip. The '57 football players, under Mr. Ford, began their march toward future fame by being one of the scrappiest young squads ever to dig their toes into the field of the stadium. The frosh basketball team, under Mr. Landerholm, hustled iust as hard as the pigskin chasers, and Bellevue can look for- ward to seeing plenty of fight spirt shown by its coming varsity squads. 48 Leadership of the neophytes was ably pro- vided by Presidents Gary Dunn and Bob Mathe- son. The popular advisors were Miss Campbell, Mrs. Walkinshaw, Mr. Cyra and Mr. Ford. The climax of the year was the class picnic. All freshmen are agreed that this was the best day of the entire term. The youngsters danced, played games, and stuffed themselves with the vast quantities of food only freshmen can put away. The setting of the sun at the end of the picnic day marks the final moment of the freshmen's first term at Bellevue. No thoughtful boy or girl can escape a tinge of sadness at the passing of childhood, but the Class of '57 is already mak- ing plans for its sophomore year, when they will be kids no longer.

But when you have a good show and it's the first time the stage of the new gym is used, you have twice the fun, excitement and confusion. This year's Variety Show centered around a going- awoy party for two stage stars played by Shirley Farnham and Dick Walling. The managers, Don NC HES THE NEW GY Riggs, Margaret Kimsey, and Bob Diamond did a fine iob picking the acts. Among the many stu- dents who received a flood of applause were Chuck Carpp, Joan Williamson, JoAnn Hodges, Ted Fiorito, Sandy Caskey, Chuck Maletto, and Rola Graff. Bushels of orchids go to Mr. Hyllond, faculty advisor, and the production staff. 53 ALL-SCHOOL PLAY To Bellevue's stage came the Sycamore family, each member of which had his own hobby, With Grandpa, played by Nicky Fauchald, it was raising snakes. Jan Ostrom played the mother who wrote books because a typewriter was cle- livered by mistake. Mr. Sycamore, Doug Hipp, had a rather noisy hobby of making fireworks! IS EXPLOSIVE SUCCESS However, when Essie, Linda Link, danced, while her husband, John Milligan, played the xylo- phone, the fun began. Everyone pursued a dif- ferent sort of hobby except Alice, Joan McDer- mott, and Tony, Dick Troyer, who were simply in love. All in all, You Can't Take lt With You was an explosive success.

Bellevue High School students se- lected this royal court to represent the spirit of the Wolverine. These students were chosen for their good-natured personalities, their abilities to make and keep friends, and most of all, for their outstanding spirit. Each one is whole-heartedly devoted to promoting enthusiasm and good ECEIVE ACCOLADE sportsmanship in the hearts and minds of his fellow classmates. The boys are not only athletes, but also highly respected leaders. Two of the girls are cheer- leaders, perfectly exemplifying Bellevue's over- flowing spirit. The other girls are considered equally outstanding students. The examples set by them truly represent what Bellevue High stands for. This tribute is being made to those people for enriching the high school lives of us all. May they reach even greater heights in future years. Three booming cheers for the Royal Court!

What could represent Elmer in a more dynamic way than the backbone of our spirit -the cheer- leaders and songleaders. These seven lively stu- dents not only inspired the school with their end- less enthusiasm, but also put countless hours into planning assemblies, originating routines, and 60 organizing the many rooters and rooting sections. From animated songs to high-pitched yells, their energy never wavered. Elmer takes his hat off to these vivacious kids-without whom our spirit would not have towered to the very rooftops.

A cheering crowd formed a huge serpentine which wound around the stadium and dissolved in front of a roaring bonfire. Cheers and fight songs lifted to the sky and echoed all the way to Bothell, where the Cougars were snarling in their den. This hap- pened at the pep rally before the Homecoming game, as students, led by cheer and song leaders, showed Elmer and the Wolverines we simply had to win. The game was played with all the spirit of the rally. A break in the onslaught against the Cou- gars came at the half with the presentation of the Homecoming royalty. Queen Rita Anderson and her princesses, Jan Ostrom, Sally Holcomb, Karen Martin, .lerrie Kelso, Dalphne Morris, Cheri Renshaw, Bev Sandsmark, and Mary Lynn Guest all looked beautiful as they were formally intro- duced to the student body. Queen Rita received the traditional bouquet of flowers and the kiss from the team captain, Bob Russ. The spirited Wolverines then roared on to beat Bothell, T3 to 0.

They swept through their season by winning tour games and tying one. This placed them in a first place tie. Under Coach Hester, the team was well balanced, and Head Coach .lones can conti- dently look to them as fu- ture varsity teams with considerable promise. The freshman squad compiled one of the most impressive records made by the frosh squads of Bellevue in many years. Their won and lost record was three wins, two losses and two ties, but they showed definite signs of strength and size. Lead by Coach Ford, the team gained experience which will be of great value to them as members of fu- ture varsity squads. Head manager Mike Eaton and equipment manager John Troxell cle- serve their share of credit for making the season a success. Mike in his sec- ond year and John in his first have more than suc- cessfully done their jobs.

ON, YOU WOLVERINES! The fighting spirit of Elmer, Bellevue's mascot, is definitely illustrated by these action shots ot Belle- vue's home game with the Mt. Si Wildcats. Actions speak louder than words and these pictures show the spirit and drive so characteristic of the Wol- verines this season. The upper picture shows fullback Dave Bird driv- ing his way over the Wild- cat goal tor the only score ot the game. Other backs can be seen ready to throw more blocks, which will help pave the way to El- mer's victory. In the center picture, fullback Bird is shown tall- ing to the ground atter a short gain. Halfback Stan Strickland is Johnny on the spot, ready to take over or throw a block. This game was regarded as one of the toughest all year. Junior, Stan Strickland, in the bottom shot, is driv- ing his way through a gaping hole in the Mt. Si line. Having been stripped of his blockers, Stan has made his way for a long gain before being downed by Mt. Si defensive back- fieldmen. ' -A .3821 5 I t i 65 i TOP LEFT.

Coach Bob Stoelt was entering his second year as head basketball mentor. During the pre-season games, he experimented with all the team members, trying to find five boys who could play well together. Throughout the season no player had a starting position cinched, for if a player proved he was capable, he was always able to move into the starting five. The Wolverines won three of their eight pre- 66 season games and looked shaky in their first league game: but they found themselves and be- gan to show the fire and spirit that have long characterized Bellevue basketball teams. They rambled through the league to second place, be- hind a powerful Bothell squad, losing only two games to Bothell and one to Foster by a single point. Elmer's boys then entered the West Central District tournament at Highline, as the second team from the King-Co League. They did not fare well, for they dropped two games to Highline, a team that went on to the state tournament, and one to South Kitsap, and were thus eliminated.

He thought that the league teams were fairly evenly matched, though Bothell was the strongest. ln fact last-place Lake Wash- ington was the only team to knock over Bothell this year. Bob Mash, guard, was high scorer with two hundred points. He was elected honorary cap- tain, and made the King-Co All-Star team. Chuck Maletta, forward, made the all-star second team. Ron Breidenstein, center, was awarded the in- spirational trophy. The team could not have functioned so effi- ciently without the aid of John Troxell, head manager. At every practice and game he was diligently on the iob. Basketball in the new gym was enjoyable not only for the team, but also for the fans. There was much more room, and the seats were far more comfortable. The attendance record was won by the class of 1954. This made the third year in a row that they copped the title. Many thrilling and exciting games were played, as cheers reverberated from the walls and urged the Wolverines on to glory. 67 B i I , B 'a M add?

Coach Len Jones' iunior Wolverines began the sea- son slowly, winning two of eight pre-season games, then they caught fire. Dave Caldwell took high scoring honors. The most exciting was with Bothell. Pat Duran cli- maxed it with a thirty- foot shot with four sec- onds to go. The team had a successful season and turned out some fine pros- pects for next year. The freshman team, center, coached by Merle Landerholm, gained a sec- ond place tie with the Bothell frosh. They had a 4-2 record. The highlight of the season was their win over Lake Washing- ton, the frosh league champs. They were the only team to beat them. Gary Dunn was high scorer. The team lacked experience at the begin- ning of the season, few boys having played to- gether, but they had come a long way when the sea- son was finished.

Our players trying to out-iump, out-run, out- play, and out- score the other team, were often viewed in such scenes as these. ln the picture at the upper left, Bob Mash C661 leaps up to add two points to Bellevue's score, while the opposing player takes a slap at the ball.

The hopes of defend- ing the league crown this year have reached ex- tremes. Winners of the Lakeside Meet by a com- fortable margin, and losers of the Kirkland Meet by a large score, the team seems to face diffi- culty in tough competition. Letterman Dave Bird, along with newcomers Don Hicks and Stan Strickland, have dominated the sprints, with Bird and Hicks placing in the 440. Powell has returned to his old form in the 70 880, and Vall-Spinosa and Benton in the mile. The relay team of Mickel, Hicks, Strickland and Bird has gathered its share of points. The field events are well taken care of with Don Anacker and Greydanus in the discus, Gram in The IIIQIW IUFTTP and pole vault, and Dave An- acker in the broad jump. Barry and Bronson have Secured the shot put, and competition in the lav- elin is keen with Hustad, Strickland, Bronson and Paget trying their hand. The experience gained this year should help make Bellevue a leader in track.

The team, handicapped by turning out at the Junior High, developed greatly inspite of the inconvenience. With victories over Lakeside and Renton under their belts, it appeared that for the first time in many years Bellevue had a hard hitting power club. Home runs and extra base hits have been the fashion. Sandy Caskey and Ed Berndt have capably handled the pitching situation with Bob Russ at first and Chuck Maletta, catcher, appearing to be outstanding hitters. Pratto, at short, Nat Green, second and Dave Caldwell at third round out the infield. Gary Dunn and John Stewart freshmen have shown surprisingly well at center and right fields in the outer garden, with Paul Secord han- dling left field. The team has had an excellent season and has set a good goal for future Bellevue baseball teams. 71 M, 2 6 2 -wel - i , ,fe J ' ,f , ,f,..f.

Coach Robert Whitney has created a tennis ladder, in which a player can move up by chal- lenging and defeating a player above him. The team has been divided into girls' and boys' teams with each playing separate matches. John Demp- say, Fred Birkeland, Dick Kraft, and Mike Wil- lemsen appear as the top boys in contention on 72 the boys' team. On the girls' side Joyce Grage. Laurie Wells, Marge Lewis, and Judy Schurr have taken the lead. An encouraging thing about this year is that all are iuniors except Kraft and Marge Lewis, a sophomore and freshman respec- tively. Matches are scheduled with all King-Co League teams and Highline. Dempsay seems to be the outstanding player, but is being pushed by other team members.

THEY COPPED THE CUP FOR ELMER BeIIevue's golf team has always been swing- ing its way to the top of the pile. This year, led by sophomore Jimmy Manlowe, they went all the way to bring the league golf trophy to Elmer's showcase. The team, consisting of Manlowe, John Demp- say, Jim Minstrell, and Dick Powell, was coached by Mr. Haines. The players were fortunate in having the new Overlake Golf Course as a prac- tice grounds and also for all home matches. AI- ternates for the team were Norman Henderson, Alan LeMaster, and Nelson Paget. When the team was caught short on men at midseason, Bill Dafoe proved himself a good alternate by winning his match decisively. The team played in the newly organized King County League, and became the first team to win a championship in this conference. The team consisting mostly of iuniors, sophomores, and freshmen, will be hard to beat next year, 73 'M .2sz...lil.g3Qg,,s , J' ,fr f Q I. .2 I i 'ZQMWW M 1, 5 1 2' X ?i 4 .

Fred Birkeland paced the Wolverines to victory by winning two firsts, slalom and cross-country, and two seconds, lump- ing and downhill giving him 397.5 points out of a possible 400 points for the meet. All the boys trained hard this year and even ran cross-country conditioning iaunts after school. The girls' ski team placed third in the Girls' All- City meet, which consisted of downhill and slalom. The boys' team practiced for weeks and then went to the Inter-High School ski meet at Rossland, British Columbia, and placed fifth. The girls' team came in second, paced by Nancy 74 Grage, who placed sixth in slalom and fourteenth in giant slalom. Joyce Grage was awarded the Girls' Sportsmanship Trophy. The team regained the Beta Cup this year. It is the third time Bellevue has won the event dur- ing the five years the Beta Cup races have been held. Fred Birkeland was given a great honor, when he was chosen as one of the four boys from Washington to race in the American Legion An- nual Tournament at Sun Valley. There were 52 boys, all under l8, racing in the combined three- way - downhill, slalom, and iumping. 2 :J YS X J 1-1 1-nu-1' -Q 1 i TOP LEFT: Q' jj 1 yr' 3 fl, L' '.. iV, ,- 'gif 'flirt ,ii Fullriierl Liiuiyil Hiilltiiit P.l.n4,i.i l'.'l.ii5'l4' TOP RIGHT T-'fit lbw,-ii 31,3 3. fi Ei- LQIIIEP LEFT 1- pr, , :T pri, init, J,f1,',iii..i- rim- l'iwli,ill mr 'i.'-.Wi-iw LOWER RIGHT fgrpgrciiff s f ,. rafrgfzsmd P ' fn Lit ,fin Pritltiiti. l.firg.iii4t lfwi-.i-,-V it-ii l ini t.'liil.'iii- tiiiii THE GALS EXERCISE THEIR SPIRIT lnterest in girls' sports climbed to an all-time high with our gym adding new activities and allowing others to expand. Miss Outzs super- vised a well-rounded sports program for all girls wishing to take part. She and the G.A.C. officers -Carolyn Holmes, president, Marilyn Follmer, vice-president, Marcia Marple, secretary, Pinky Anderson, treasurer, and Nancy Grage, historian - deserve many thanks. Every girl who earned her first G.A.C. letter had to go through an initiation that proved she was a good sport. The loot found on the treas- ure hike and the sunburns and sore muscles found after the ski and bike hikes, only proved that some sport can be found for every girl. Beat you to the other end! This was heard regularly as the girls attended splash parties to keep up their swimming prowess. Everyone got a chance to test her skill if she attended one of the many playdays. The new gym was given a workout, as turn- outs for volleyball, basketball, speedball, and softball increased. Sandy Horne chose wisely on her team because it soundly beat all fourteen contenders, proving to be the best girls' basket- ball squad. Everyone in the girls' sports program this year had loads of fun while learning cz new sport or improving an old one. 75 SPIRIT AND ACTION G It's a strike! That's what every girl hopes she'll hear as she looks towards those ten pins awaiting her ball. Over one hundred girls came to bowling turnouts where class bowling teams were selected and a tournament established. Pitted against the other good teams, the iunior team had to really work in order to emerge the O TOGETHER Highest in their class teams were Edith Ramsey, freshman, Bernice Benson, sophomore, Joan An- derson, iunior, and Ginny Hile, senior. Bowlers are found everywhere and no matter where they go, these girls will remember the Wolverine spirit, and we hope it will bring them luck in future overall winners.

Each May, as a reward for their scholastic efforts, they spend a school day cruis- ing Puget Sound, cultivating gorgeous suntans and thinking of their poor landlubber pals on the hilltop. To be a member of the group one must obtain a certain requirement in grades. Five points are given for an A, three for a B, and one for a C. This year freshmen were required to accumulate thirty-six points through the year and the other classes thirty.

Bellevue debaters have engraved this phrase in their minds, for good reason this past season. This year the team walked away with the King-Co League Championship, as well as the trophy from the Seattle University Tourna- ment. ln State the squad placed fourth. Members 84 have also done well in individual events. Alfred Arkley won third in the P.C.L. Student Congress. Don Wahlquist and Mike Willemsen capped first place in the P.C.L. Tournament.

El.MER'S DEN IS THEIR HEADQUARTERS Bellevue High Distributive Education and the Bellevue Retailers' Club had a busy and prosper- ous year. Elmer's Den was cared for by these enterprising students. They arranged the interest- ing show case displays with cooperation of local merchants. Bringing the Christmas spirit into the foyer with the seasonal display, was a big pro- ject, never to be forgotten by the students or the Seventh Marine Regiment in Korea. Spring came, and with it the annual Employer-Employee Ban- quet at the Crabapple, at which the students honored their employers. Mr. Robert Crown, ad- visor, was an inspiration to the clubs. 85 WN iq., 14' rn-.1 fwww . ,A x M .

XPERTS AND SNOW BUNNIES SHARE FUN Tearing through the slalom course and kicking up the fine powder snow were favorite pastimes for Bellevue High's big flock of snow bunnies. The Kandahar Ski Club, newly chartered this year, had a very active program. At the annual 86 banquet the Piet Beaufort and Dr. Birkeland ln- spirational Trophies were awarded to the out- standing boy and girl skiers. Miss Outzs and Dr. Birkeland, advisors, and Fred Birkelancl, presi- dent, were a year-long inspiration to all members.

D1 ELMER'S ASSISTANTS These gals are always on the go, doing the many unpredictable services that go with their iob. Special bulletins, checking absentees, deliv- ering messages, and handing out pink tardy slips are just a few of the services they perform. Mrs. Ethel Diamond, the gal who makes the office go round, supervises and helps the girls learn the tricks of the trade. HELP FOR BOOKWORMS Busy as bees are the student librarians, doing the many duties necessary to make the library tick. This year the added responsibility of caring for the elementary school books created a prob- lem, but was easily overcome. Under the capable eye of Mrs. Davidson, these students took care of the needs of the entire stu- dent body with a great deal of efficiency, little or no praise. 87 'X rar f emu sr h ' BA--MRWE 1' 4iQqaun0'f' .51-w 'f 'fgY' M TOP PICTURE- LEFT T0 RIGHT- FIRST ROW: Sandy Baird, Cheryl Dudek, Judy Dare, Carol Van Wyk, Joan McDermott, .Judy Givens.

First semester editor, Don Riggs and his crew did a bang-up job of presenting the latest school happenings. There were many changes before the ship set sail such as a new sports page set-up, rotation of crew 88 positions, and a new commander Mr. Distad. The latest coverage of the many things that interest landlubbers was found in the Barque. A highlight of the year was the Pacific Slope Press Conference at which the iolly tars of Belle- vue were well represented. 2 Q11 I l fa, ff f f w, , f, tif A 1 f ,X QZ,,,., We W , . 1 - 4 , L - .1 Wil AA CA-ff?

The annual class capably headed by Pat Robin- son, editor, and Andy Studebaker, business manager, worked extremely hard to make this year's annual a success. Students with previous experience on the staff were supplemented by newcomers to produce an energetic class with many new ideas. Mr. Brant, photographer extraordinary, took the pictures and Miss Hardy, BEACON advisor, supervised the work that went on behind the barrier in the southwest corner of room 206. 89 .Mm -1.

FOREGROUND: Don Riggs, Bob Dinniond, Bonnie Gralmiii. THE PLAY'S THE THING Hollywood, here they come! Footlighters, the dramatic group of Bellevue High, under the leadership of Miss Xena Carman, was really active for the first time this year, and had a lot of fun with some seriousness mixed in. Bob Diamond and Diane Miller, presidents, kept the thespians stage-minded all year. The comedy, Grandma Pulls a String, was Cl rollicking success, with Dini Lovegren as Grandma, who couldn't keep track of her yarn. The future thespians learned many of the in's and out's of show business. Throughout the year, 90 members gave interesting and factual reports on makeup, costumes, props, and production opera- tions. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS- ln order to publish a successful book, you have to have teamwork, not only on your staff, but all the way down the line. This Thirteenth Anniversary BEACON could never have been such a success without the expert photography and talent do- nated by Bill Brant. Many thanks are also due the Western Engraving and Colortype Company for their cooperative spirit and their help. The Craftsman Press deserves orchids, too, not only doing such an expert iob on the printing, but for contrib- uting so much aid in our selection of a wonderful cover. ww. Ai Tglff!
