MARY EVELYN DONWORTH EDITOR FIRST EDITION SEATTLE HELEN BUSH SCHOOL 1944 PREFACE MUCH of our early life is taken up with pouring over books of all sizes, shapes, and descriptions, and life itself seems to be divided into chapters- some good, some exciting, and some not quite up to our expectations. In looking for a theme that in itself would ex- press the thoughts and ideas of our school life, we could think of nothing better than one whose sequences and forms were familiar to anyone who has been even remotely exposed to a class room. And so we invite you to study our 1944 annual, the Tykoe Textbook . iii TO MRS. LIVENGOOD THERE are very few people at Bush who could testify as to what time in the morning Mrs. Livengood arrives to be on the job at school. All we can say is that her day begins a good deal before school does. This early start by no means dulls her vitality, and throughout the day she always keeps a stride ahead, whether she is working with the would-be opera stars of the fourth grade, eating her lunch on a tray while she teaches violin, or struggling with a senior speech class that doesn't understand the difference between the sound of A with a long mark and U with a curly-cue. Not to be forgotten is her position as council adviser where she turns her skills to guiding the student council whose existence is rather like that of the soap operas -one major crisis after another. The amazing thing about her versatility is that she does all these tasks completely. How she manages to keep things straight enough to avoid handing one of her violin pupils a speech test instead of some new music or vice versa, is a mystery that will probably go unsolved. For all these 'accomplishments and for her never tiring interest in our welfare, we dedicate our 1944 Tykoe to Mrs. Livengood. iv MRS. LIVENGOOD V D+?

The editors, consisting of Ann Pigott of the snap- shot departmentg Jana Pratt, head artist and idea producer assisted by Pat Pope, Margot Royce, Marilyn Goetz and Marilyn Smith who did the division pages, Petie Smith with the job of photography editor which all but turns your hair gray, Pat Pope, chief Worrier of the literary section, Joan Broughton, financial manager, better known as the doughnut debt collector, and Editor Muscles Donworth who went around in circles hoping they would turn into straight lines, thought they were working hard on the annual until they watched Mrs. Lister in action. When the annual is issued we hope she will still have enough strength to look through the finished product. Mr. Mortimer Frayn of Frayn Printing Company, Mr. Miller of Western Engraving Company and Mr. Turner of McBride and Anderson are also members of the staff though they may not have been present at all the sizzling meetings. Without their cooperation and encouragement when things looked black, we would not have been able to present, the Tykoe Textbook. 2 ,Q Q H23 Sf ,W ,,.,x: E , W ggi N 5? 4 'S 6 1 iv v Q iAQ'nl wk ww +d O - J r X if .

Though we Bush students have undoubtedly caused them many agonizing and troublesome moments, we really admire the faculty. Their patience and perseverance are never ending. Mrs. Bush, as well as being head mistress, teaches eighth grade, junior, and senior mathematics. Her math. review for College Boards is famous. Mrs. Lister, in addition to advising the seniors, puts Latin and English students through their paces. Mrs. Stephens, a newcomer to Bush, has been busy teaching history, sewing, and dramatics, and advising the juniors and the Barometer. Mrs. Hinman is the particularly well-liked teacher of history and English to seventh and eighth grades, and also of freshman English. Miss Widmayer, who came in January, exhibits profound knowledge of modern and American history. Mme. Chessex exudes glamour and French chic along with those con- fusing French irregular verbs. Though she piles on the work, her classes are very popular. Mrs. Binns keeps the typing classes pounding with professional results. Mrs. Livengood's helpful contributions extend over many fields from dis- cipline to diction, violin to chorus, and music theory to advising for the council. Mrs. Galloway, another newcomer, lends her guidance to that increasingly popular language, Spanish. Art being a favorite, Mr. LaGril1e is deluged with hopeful and aspiring artists. His ideas are sought by every department. Mrs. Matthews, the librarian, humorously carries off her many additional duties which include lending an efficient hand to all projects. The demands upon Mrs. Gall are many and diverse. She has seventh grade mathematics, and science and cooking for both the seventh and eighth grades, In biology she spends many hours with the juniors. Keeping the senior chemists from blowing up the school is Mrs. Jensen's main task along with teaching the Freshmen what x equals in algebra. Mrs. Graham, who came in the middle of the year, has kept the gym classes under control. Her specialty is teaching the younger ones to dance, and enforcing the locker room rules for the older girls. Mrs. Ballaine introduces the seventh and eight graders to the rigors of Latin. Both Mrs. Pratt and Mrs. Roys come over to school every week to teach special classes in their respective fields, art and German. pp p W QUESTIONS HOW OBSERVANT ARE YOU? How many girls were there in the graduating class pictured directly above Mrs. Bush's head? Has this book been copyrighted? Authentically? Which one of the people on the preceding page do you think is unhappy? State the owner of the car parked in the middle of the school picture. Check the 5th and 11th items in the Table of Contents and see if they are correct. In what six cities do the publishers of the grade book have their factories? What type of fish is Mrs. Livengood wearing? A. Guppie B. Trout C. Sole - D. Undeterminate species Does Mrs. Lister have 4, 6, or 10 buttons on her coat? Who in the staff picture neglected to put up her bangs the preceding night? CED. NOTE: I forgotl . How many toes are showing in the preceding picture? Explain. True and False: A. The picture of the school was taken in December. B. One Senior in the staff picture fell asleep under the permanent wave machine. C. The male members of the faculty outnumber the female. In the faculty picture, if Mrs. X. gave her legs to Mrs. Y. and Mrs. Y exchanged faces with Mrs. Z., do you feel that she would then be the outstanding member of this group? a 'Ns - ,zf ww' - . , ,V XAQ3 f . X I I1 WQREY5m, . , , PART TWO OUR CLASSES AS A WHOLE IT is an alleged fact that each class at Bush con-- siders itself far superior to all the other classes. With the sophomores, movies constitute the essence of their never ending chatter and in almost any notebook can be found a picture of Frankie, Lana Turner, or Cary Grant. The freshmen, who for the greater part make up the lively element around school, are a gay but giggly bunch. Brains and Amazons go to make up the junior class, much to the other classes' dismay, but they themselves, oblivious of this fact, continue merrily on their way. As for the 7th and 8th grades, the youngest classes in the upper school, they spend their time swinging and dashing about without regard for any of the upper classmen. Now the seniors, who seem to worry all the time about the privileges they don't have, try in vain to command the respect of the rest of the school.

Her other allotropici' forms in- clude Udoughnut debt collec- tor, senior play's Lucia Ben- net. and chairman of the social committee. Her out- standing properties are steel- wool hair, brown eyes, and winning personality. Also a strong reducing agent. 'FDifferent forms of energy. I4 H E L E N BUSCHMANN.

Three factors also closely related with her other activities are painting, bicycle-riding, and canine psy- chiatry.

One of Nancy Calvert's favorite experiments is schussing through powdered H20 on Well-carved Wood splints. For many years eminent scientists at Bush have been looking for a method of avoiding the oncoming examinations and too involved questions. Re- cently this has been solved by Nancy who finds it necessary at such times to escape for one of her prescribed six daily 15 meals. Although quite vola- tile? she make a good basket- ball player and the combina- tion of all her physical pro- perties makes her the class belle. 'FLight.

Mary Evelyn, using Mrs. Lister as a strong catalyst? has, as you can see, produced an outstanding annual. In her nascent state Mary Evelyn has multiple quantities of freckles, but in the play as Hester she took on the green- ish-yellow color that is char- acteristic of chlorine.

Her class- mates, who are forever on the wrong end of her practical jokes, might consider this state of affairs fortunate. There is, however, one impor- tant chemical that has one thing in common with her. That's copper. It's amazing that the color of Nancy's hair and copper should be so alike in view of the fact that she isn't a member of the 2nd group in the periodic chart of atoms. The resemblance ends there, however, because t'Gal is neither malleable? or duc- tile'l'g but she is good at bas- ketball and was vice-president of the senior class. fFCapable of being ham- mered 0r rolled back. : Capable of being drawn out as a wire. RENAISSANCE OF CHEMISTRY MARILYN GOETZ. Al- though Marilyn Goetz is the name of this comparatively quiet element, she is often re- ferred to as Gutzy . Unless greatly heated, her reactions are usually cool and collected. Her election to the vice-presi- dency can largely be attrib- uted to the fact that she is not combustible and is willing to work to see things go to completion. An interesting I9 side' ht on her behavior is er art work and not to be forgotten was her position as il WM? We sop omore councilor and her K fi 1 as Anita in the play. L 20g JOANNE HOWE. In com- bining With the typewriter Joanne Howe was an import- ant factor in the production of the annual. At times, how- ever, she is slightly unstable and readily decomposes at the RENAISSANCE sight of any worm or bug close at hand. The scientific members of the class like to bring in small animals so they can study her reactions, It will be a long time before we forget her portrayal of Nellie in the play. RENAISSANCE OF CHEMISTRY JANIS KERR'S most im- portant feature, where chem- ical activity is concerned, is her high boiling point. That is, where other more volatile? things go off, Janis is still gently simmering and can keep her head. She is stud- ious but not to the point of being completely saturated by her studies. Her part as Rita in the play and her posi- tion as chairman of the sports committee help to make her rank with the other seventeen important senior compounds. tSee Calvert. 3 X X XI' . Gag. X.

As secretary of the student court, she combined readily with the rest of the members to keep the school running smoothly and effici- ently. In analyzing her part as Fay in Shubert Alley we found her to have some of the same properties as Chris. As sulfur does, Ann has three characteristic a I l 0 t r 0 p i ci' forms: lively, good-natured, and well poised. 'Thin 'See Broughton 5 X 4 , PAT POPE.

Another attraction of hers is world affairs, a topic in which she can hold her own against almost anyone.

Now our councilor Pat must head the list With her blue eyet and winning smile At all dances the boys she does en- thrall 'Cause she's so full of fun and style. Next comes Gwen who was likewise president: Of lieutenants and captains tall She had more at her beck than she could use Quite a siren for one so small. Midi Sawyer's a girl who knows the dance And who comes from Wenatchee town, She' a girl with blue eyes that charm and sway, And her beauty will win renown. Our Adoria's the 'tMoll at Taylor Hall 'Cause she reads those exciting books, And she always wastes the pay she gets On some journal from Pic to Look. There's a pianist with us who's never missed Any note of the grand Bush songs. It's that Idalice Squire We all admire And to everyone's gang she belongs. When we speak of Miss Frayn, we mention sports But we musn't forget her brain, She has worked in the stock-room all the time And sold war stamps to all who came. From Spokane hails this chic with breezy line: Knows her way when it comes to boys With her figure fair, and long dark hair Barbara Ludberg is known for poise. She has humor galore that's always there In her jokes be they tart or sweet. In all art she excells like Bill LaGrille It's Nan Hanson of whom I speak. It's the musical Clare with the coal black hair Who's the one Frankie Carle in school, With a blistering breeze she hits the keys And comes out of it calm and cool. An artistic young miss and smart is she Though ambitious, she's seldom heard But at costume design and staging too Janice Stubbs has the final word. Miss Barrett's heart has shot like cupid's dart Toward a certain spry male called Colonel But no cause for remorse, it's merely a horse Whose affections you'll have to hurdle. For a word-connoisseur we'1l take June Beck Who ranks second to Orson Wells She's the choice candidate for all de- bates And her voice casts a fatal spell. Barbara Peyser has talent that is shown By her most daring blackboard art Also she has the eyes that we all know Make her fit for a Broadway part. ,fi .2LvWw,MJw 'Qfvv-Lil if -'O 4 :io L- J,,4 1' u 'Adv-5 !4'41. v,-vs. 1 3 4' 4 5 o 'Fi' ab' X.n1.s 'As O 6 'l- 'A -Q9 0,64 . -Sig 4,329 9- M 'SPE 3.5 'UDQ 5 we ..'5' Zo- ,VI 'uri E2 hz: E .. ,. .

Betts Clark Gable Hansen is nothing but a synonym for excitement. This includes mischief leading to commotion and disturbance which often ends in disaster. She has a style which makes her click-in writing, too, Bruce: Studying seriously and well, Cynthia has accomplished a lot. She has also accomplished much by her dieting as witnessed by her slim waist line. Black: Beanie says she often has grandiose delusions which is all all right for some one who is going to be an actress. Her dark features and carriage make her look like the dramatic type. Halsey: Diane is an all around type that every class should have. This year she has been a councilor, member of the glee club and a hard worker on class projects. She is also a sports enthusiast. II. GABITIS: A. Allen: Debby is one who keeps up with what's what and who's who. x NZB. N x xc. ' D. NE. There is something in her spirit that resembles Mickey Rooney-could be her boyish hair and her popularity. Connelly: Beverly has become a leading personality in the class. She enjoys being humorous and at times shows a wit far greater than the others' strict corn . On the Court she means business. Connelly: Pat is cheerful and alert. As a boarder she is the envy of all with her placid temperament, and lovely dark hair. King: Gig is willing and competent. She can be said to sight her ob- jective always and soon have the situation well in hand. Royce: Bobbin's charm is her genuine sincerity and consideration of others. This quality was well rewarded when she was chosen as a member of the student court. III. SOPHISTICATITIS: A. B. C. Bowen: Pat is tall, dark, and beautiful. She can be characterized by a spontaneous humor and wonderfully congenial nature. Everyone finds a friend in Pat. Parker: Kay is one of our best students, a platinum blond with musical talent and oh, so much sophistication. Wall: Easy-going and happy-go-lucky, this redhead from Chelan has a warm personality. Dorothy plays boogie-Woogie on the piano and her weakness is magazine serials. CONGRUEN T FIGURES D. Kubley: Tiny and cute, this redhead resembles a cartoon. Josie is in- dependent, possesses a flair for the artistic, and is big-hearted. MISCELLANEOUS: A. Peck: Maybe the daughter of a Navy officer who travels here and there would just naturally come by an ability to express herself well. At any rate Jo Anne is a valuable writer on the publications com- mittee. Horses occupy most of her thoughts. B. Watson: Jean is a whizz in her studies, and shines when called upon. She is one of those who saves the gab and greatly profits by listening in class. We may think of her as quiet and unassuming but certainly able and competent. ll 1 1. ' 9 I vs.. lx l X .

If you happen to pass you'd see every one from 7th graders to seniors in the throes of Mrs. Binns' new method of Mental Typing. Don't laugh because it can be done if you have a mind--so I'm told. After ten minutes of arguing with a couple of the poor de- fenseless 7th graders, Anne and Jan finally get two Royals by telling Jill and Bunky that the Underwoods practically go along by themselves, when really you have to just about get a hammer to make them move. Then comes the shock of the day when it's announced that a Time Test is about to take place. That means every rhythm from 24 to 60 will be going on with Mrs. Binns pounding them all out at the same time. The signal is given, UGO! but who in heaven's name is going? Petie is still struggling to get the middle window open which has been impossible to open all year, Midi is still asking Mrs. Binns what page the test is on, after she has whispered it into every ear about twenty times, and then we find Betts the only one merrily going at a brisk speed to set a new record when she finally opens her eyes to see that the ribbon has worn out, and with a cry of downright agony crumples the paper and is out of the room like a trouper. After it's all over Mrs. Binns practically collapses when she finds that one last 7th grader, Jane Bowman, has pulled through with only the discouraging results of a senior. Then comes the bad news that you are only five lessons behind and be sure to have them made up by tomorrow but don't rush, don't look at the typewriter, keep eyes on the copy, don't spell to yourself, keep the light touch' and please, comes the plea from Mrs. Binns, please be in a better mood tomorrow because that has a lot to do with what's ailing you people. -Petie Smith 4, HLVWGAI J me-'L' 23559 'vm ,gill DOMINANT MOVEMENTS 51 CHEMISTRY Long before the end of the recess has arrived, chemistry class is Well on its way and the poor inmates are struggling through a study stimulator -a small test that usually has nothing to do with what we read. After we hand in our papers, Pat Pope and Mrs. Jensen proceed to discuss the test while the rest of us boldly eavesdrop. Now are there any questions on the chapter ? The class blurts out some questions but Pope usually beats them to the draw. Mary Evelyn Donworth and Joan Broughton--we natur- ally write the two names together-become disgusted and talk over their plans for the future only to be interrupted by a happy reminder from Mrs. Jensen, The college-board girls better listeng they really can't afford to waste time. On Tuesdays and Thursdays we are blessed with chemistry lab-a two hour period of proving already proved experiments. Our favorite experiment seemed to deal with hydrogen sulfide which sends quite a distinctive aroma through the school. It has been found that these fumes do not affect The Greater Chemists so no matter how strong the fumes are the seniors always survive, while the rest of the school holds class outside. After our assigned experiment is completed, we too stagger outdoors and once more inhale. -Nancy Gallagher -. ' 'n,3X cvs' ST ART Uncle Bill LaGrille has had complete control over the upper school's artistic abilities, or the ones submitted. There have been all sorts of terrific happenings in the sunny Cthat is, when the sun's outl studio. The door was carefully and firmly barred for those weeks when the hungry and chilly model frequented the place, but the kitchen crew got around that by peering through their windows directly opposite. After the months of drawing nudes, came poster painting, spectacular still-lifes, and millions of other acrobatics. There were some clever figures molded in clay, mostly done by 7th and 8th graders. Reports on the different art periods, Medieval through Modern, and the most predominant styles, were given throughout the year by the various scholars. The art period everyday presents a novelty. You go floating merrily into the studio and a booming male voice blares out, Please shut the door behind you! It's that door that swings to a wide open standstill the moment you touch it and that you have to go down several dozen steps and into the drooling rain to reach. Then you dash over to the stove, that sometimes gives off some heat, for five minutes of hand warming. But you are immediately commanded to put on your smock, so you hasten to pull on the gaudy thing and crawl over with the equipment of the day to straddle those high stools. From then on the novelty begins. To- day will you be terrorized, thrown into gales of laughter or in- trigued? -Margot Royce OO' ' o S 1 1 l . DOMINAN T MOVEMEN TS W 53 KENY ON HALL The clock ticks away the final minutes of the last study hall, and there is a mad scramble for coats, and the finding of Mr. Bush to take the Kenyon Hall girls up to their den The arrival at the Hall is announced by slamming doors, wild shouts, and rac- ing to see just who will be the first into the house. Immediately, each takes her respective place-Joan goes to the study room, Geneva sits down and writes letters, Gwen oc- cupies the very popular bath tub, Debby sits at the piano and serenades them all, and Janis pounds frantically against the wall or floor. lThe most popular reducing exercise.l All are just pleas- antly settled at their work, when the telephone rings. Stillness settles over the Hall, and soon the patting of Mrs. Bush's feet is heard coming to the top of the stairs to call someone to the tele- phone. As soon as she informs the lucky person, the rest resume their task. This goes on all evening at very regular intervals till bed time. About 9:30, Gen and Joan also join the floor crew, and they make the whole house shake with their pounding. Just before bed time there is a great rush to see who gets the bath tub, and to the disgust of all, the warm water is all gone. With grumbles, all climb into bed, and somehow, the conversation and laughter go on till 10:30 or 11:00 and then Mrs. Bush or Mrs. Livengood comes down and softly says, Time to be quiet girls. -Janis Kerr STUDY HALL It is now after recess at 10:30. The bell has finally rung for third period study hall. In troops Petie followed by Gwen. They immediately pull up to the table, sit down, and continue their gossip about Jack and Barry. Mrs. Matthews will be in any time now to inform the girls that they have had plenty of time to settle down.

Quiet finally reigns, but suddenly Geneva says who's got an envelope ? and Lillian shakes herself out of the depths of French Cnovel?J to shoot one over. Now comes an absorbing conversation about glasses. Patsy's cat-eyes, Peties's harlequins, Joanne's pixies, and Gwen's round ones provide material for many exchanges to see which frame suits the various faces. Only twenty minutes now remain to get the various school books at least opened. The young ladies finally put Satan behind them with a look at the clock, and all is well. --Joanne Howe CIV ICS CLASS When at last the entire Eighth Grade is assembled for their first period Civics class it is usually well past nine. They're off to a rambunctious start with the tossing of books and a few other minor details but finally order prevails. The first question falls upon Nancy who has been known to evasively answer, Have you noticed the clearance sale for tie- pins at the Bon Marche ? This starts a heated discussion on the subject of tie-pins and things in general, with each person trying to prolong the conversa- tion. Then some ambitious little brain pipes up with, Wasn't the next question about the Fifteenth Amendment ? That brings us down to earth once more. After a few painful questions concerning the Fifteenth Amendment, a hopeful individ- ual inquires, Weren't we going to have a movie this morning? 0 We OO' an l -Q O A ' . ,ielifl .' of l , X .3 ,,f,,5,,i tie 'Pr ' .,,u.,w '..--P' EH IMLWLIIN ANT NIQVEMENTS 55 Upon assuring her that she is mistaken, Mrs. Hinman attempts to proceed with the civics lesson. Ann, what is a Writ of Habeas Corpus ? To this Ann replies hesitantly, Well-it's a watchamajigger that guaranteed a kind of a thing that makes somebody free-isn't it ? You children need to study, admonishes Mrs. Hinman. Your answers are a little vague. Ann's too busy drooling over her picture of Turhan Bey to do any studying, teases Eleanor. Daggers dart between the eyes of Ann and Eleanor until the bell rings relieving the tension. Then Ann selects a nice heavy book and slams it across the room at Eleanor. They're at it again! -Janet Lister MUSIC AND ART APPRECIATION Wednesday-6th period. The stamping of heavy feet may be heard all through the building as nearly all the seniors and several juniors make a mad dash for Mrs. Livengood's room. The first one through the door throws herself behind the potted plant, out of sight, draws a detective book from her hip pocket, and goes on with the adventure of Dick Tracy and Mrs. Pruneface. Rapidly the six comfortable chairs, and semi-comfortable window seats are filled with bodies. The poor undecided girl in the door finds she took six seconds too long deciding whether to be comfortable in a chair, or hidden beside the radiator and she has to sit on the floor. The noise subsides when the two lecturers, Mrs. Livengood and Mrs. Pratt, step out from the shadow of the piano still discussing whether to begin with music or art. What settles their problem no one will ever know, but Mrs. Pratt usually begins with a talk on the prominent Russian or Dutch artists. Twenty minutes later Mrs. 1 56 g gg M g g Q DOMINANT MOVEMENTS Livengood takes over for the musical end of the class and soon volumes of Tchaikowsky's 5th or Grieg's lullabies may be heard lifting lazily from the room. Just as our heads begin to nod a series of giggles begins as several pictures done by the current painters under discussion are passed around. Then ensue several conversations about the queerness of such an artist by nearly everyone except, of course, the Mrs. Pruneface face behind the plant. Suddenly the bell rings, all is quietg from the direction of the plant a sigh is heard: Mrs. Pruneface is dead-and we're ex- CUSGC1- -Joan Broughton LUNCH HOUR There comes a time each day when there is a general rush for the dining room. After Grace has been sung there is always a de- bate at each table as to who should get the food. Each girl is just as hungry as the other but too lazy to exert any extra energy which might be needed to rise from her chair and get the main dish. Finally some polite little 7th Grader is bullied into getting it. This of course isn't always the case. At one table, for example, a senior gets the food while six or seven freshmen wait with glut- tonous looks. After everyone has been served there is a steady clinking of silverware and dishes which usually results in a few spoons dropped on the floor or a pitcher of milk upset on a table. The art of eating is a delicate task and very few accomplish this until they get to be seniors. The seniors eat with grace although many of the girls fail to see this. After the dinner, comes of course. the dessert. While some turn up their noses at it others get the benefit of two to three desserts. This art requires study as it isn't everyone who can develop the proper technique. After the meal the girls are required to carry their dishes to the wagon. This gives good training to them and some get to be quite skilled in carrying many dishes at once to avoid making extra trips. All in all the lunch hour proves to be the happiest hour of the school day and affords much relaxation from the general grind. Everyone DOMINANT MOVEMENTS -4 f i 57 gastronomically happy reports to her 5th period class feeling like a million and ready to take on the seriousness of studying once more. -Patsy Donald THE SPANISH CLASS Class has been in session ten minutes when the door opens and Dorothy Barrett ambles in with the excuse that they had the bread with the little seeds on it today and she simply couldn't re- sist eating ten pieces. Mrs. Galloway just can't see why Dorothy should be late to class regardless of the seeds. The lesson for today was to translate as far as you could in the little red book of Jose. We'll go around the class and each one translate a paragraph , said Mrs. Galloway with her little smile. Everything went all right until it came to Patsy D. who was busy looking up the words in her paragraph. Janis Kerr had fallen asleep by this time and J une Beck was reading a book which seemed very interesting from the look on her face. Gallagher, who was translating at the time, stopped at every other word while Dorothy shouted the answer across the room. When the translating was finished Mrs. Galloway pulled out some questions for a test which she had snugly hidden in her brief case. But tests are bad for our morale , cry out Janis and June, while Donald and Gallagher insist that a vote be taken on whether a test should be given or not. That's a super idea , yells Dorothy and by this time Mrs. Galloway whose face has turned a brillant red tries to utter words, but the five girls in her Spanish class leave her speechless. Just as Barrett sharpens her pencil for the 5th time the bell rings and the charming little girls file out of the room. Mrs. Galloway sighs as the last one leaves. Her face lights up as she says to herself, Well, thank heavens I don't have to correct their tests today. -Patsy Donald 000 58 gpg pp MOLDING INSTITUTIONS CHAPTER Two GGVERN MEN T THE STUDENT COUNCIL As the second year of our present system of student govern- ment draws to a close, it may well be said that this year has not been spent in vain. With the councils of both semesters and Mrs. Livengood pulling together throughout the year, many storms have been weathered and large strides taken toward a perfected student government. The council consists of a member from each class and the pres- ident and vice president of the student body. The councilors act as presidents of their respective classes, while the vice president pre- sides over the court, and the president's chief duty is to conduct assemblies. The semi-annual elections are exciting events with ardent campaigning by all concerned. The president and vice presi- dent are both elected by the student body from two candidates for each office. The rest of the council elections are carried on behind closed classroom doors. An annual Smorgasbord is given in honor of the incoming and outgoing officers. In the hands of the council rests in no small degree the problem of keeping the school running smoothly. During the year many questions on conduct and ways of running the different depart- ments came up. These were discussed by the council at their weekly meetings and then presented to the school in student assemblies. Whenever a major problem concerning the committees arose, the committee chairmen were called in for a discussion. In this way opinions from every source were gathered and finally agree- ment reached. The chairmen who took part in these meetings were: Jean Smith and June Beck for the property committee, Janis Kerr and Mary Evelyn Donworth for the sports, Jana Pratt and Babs Peyser for the publications, Idalice Squire and Nancy Calvert for the library, Anne MacFarlane and Marilyn Smith for the fine arts, Joan Broughton and Sana Harrah for the social, Helen Buschmann and Joan Frayn, for the assembly, and Midi Sawyer and Debby Allen for the social service.

T 60 MOLDING INSTITUTIONS COURT The court is composed of three members elected by the student body, three members chosen by the elected members of the court, a president who is elected as vice-president of the school, and a non- voting faculty adviser who is present at all the meetings. The pur- pose of the court is to hear and judge all cases of misdemeanor in the school and to provide penalties for infringements of the rules and by-laws of the constitution and the handbook. Its aim has been to treat each case fairly and be of some assistance to each girl in meeting her own individual problem. The court has developed a new system whereby a complete record of each case is kept in a confidential file. The court has considered about 130 cases during the year. It has done its best to solve the problems brought before it but there are several problems of general policy yet to be decided by the future courts. Disturbance in study hall and gum chewing have been the most common cases while moving benches and kitchen duty were the most common punishments. If the punishments given were not com- pleted in a week, an hour of makeup work would be added. Every week after the court meetings a list of the cases and penalties was filed. 62 i i DOMESTIC UNIFICATION 5 f' CHAPTER THREE I LIFE WITH THE BOARDERS fl U 'C D'-. - - , E .., l 2' 5 ji H flow 2 .

The boarders live up the hill from school, at Taylor Hall, a few at Kenyon Hall, and the 7th and Sth grades at the Annex. Taylor Hall is a big rambling, pleasant house that is probably kept surprised most of the time by the activities of its occupants, who do numerous and astonishing things. This year we're under the capable hands of Mrs. Nora Whiton at Taylor Hall and Mrs. Sally Ingham at the Annex. Sixteen girls live in Taylor Hall in sunny, cheerful rooms, play the piano in the living room, sun themselves in the back yard--when it's warm enough-and make their own breakfasts on Sunday mornings. On the weekend they go to shows or toast marshmallows before the fire, while there's always a radio blaring from some quarter. By now surely the bannister has been DOMESTIC UNIFICATION - A if g 63 tried out and the roof and attic of the Annex explored. In warm weather the grill is used and the girls go on picnics and hikes. Taylor Hall gives off a friendly, pleasant aura while the girls are getting acquainted in the fall until the last good-byes in the spring, and one gets to know one's next door neighbor very well. You dis- cover lots of hidden talents like Geneva Spaulding's singing, Dor- othy Wall's piano playing, Pat Ke1ly's hula and lots of others. A boarder learns things like cooperation with others and how to iron her blouse in the laundry room without burning it. Somehow the boarders survive epidemics of stomach flu and Frank Sinatra crazes, drown their woes in a coke at the drugstore and take pic- tures of everything possible. To follow the lives of the boarders you'd have to be pretty active and on the go from breakfast to evening study. Even then you'd be lost in a maze of dramatics, after-school sports, the 1090 Club and numerous other things. It's really been fun and very in- teresting to say the least. Just ask any Boarder! 64 V W RISE OF JOURNALISM CHAPTER FOUR PUBLICATIONS The Publications Committee this year has tried to organize more thoroughly the printing of the Bush Barometer. Two periods a week were given to the committee in which, under the direction of Mrs. Stephens, the planning and editing of each issue took place. It was difficult at first to get together a staff, all members of which could meet at the same time. When this problem was overcome the selected group had to organize itself into an efficient body. The first semester, under the editorship of Jana Pratt, the Bush Barometer was published once a week. Joan Frayn proved to be in- valuable as far as the dirty work of stenciling and mimeograph- ing was concerned. Sana Harrah made a good feature editor and Barbara Ludberg faithfully supplied the gossip column, so vital to the popularity of the Barometer. The mid-year changing of commit- tees caused. quite a bit of confusion out of which finally emerged Barbara Peyser as editor in chief. She and her staff published the paper once every two weeks, with Kay Black as feature editor, Virginia King and Evelyn Locke as star reporters. The hope of both staffs is that their work this year will con- tribute to the progress of next year's Barometer. 66 f A AMAZON ASPIRATIONSL CHAPTER FIVE SPORTS The guiding hand behind the after school athletic program this year was the Sports Committee, which, headed by Muscles Donworth and Janis Kerr, organized all the team and individual tournaments. Volleyball, soccer, basket- ball, badminton, baseball, and tennis were the most popular games, but ping- pong, serviceball, and a modified version of bowling went the rounds occas- ionaly. Arousing the most competition and enthusiasm among the classes was basketball, for everyone looked forward to Dad's Night. That evening the Juniors and Freshmen tangled in the championship basketball game and al- though the ninth graders played hard, they were overcome by the juniors who took the laurels for the second time in a row. At the intermission the fathers and seniors provided much entertainment with a lively and somewhat unconventional basketball game. Unaccustomed as they were to girls' rules the Dads managed to overpower the seniors by a score of 22 to 16. It was indeed a wonder that the sports program was able to survive the year because the question of who was to have the gym when was a weighty problem. In the end, after much debating, the lower school boys consented to giving it up one afternoon a week and triumphantly turnout continued on Mondays. A big maroon B was the reward for those who faithfully attended, showed improvement, and were cooperative at the afternoon sports program. MTN y . N J: mqxrf- -' 1 X, P.. W i s I .6 564 f .f,' ff .,.

Mrs. Paul Pigott generously gave us the use of her ballroom,-and did we have fun! After the dance, half of us stayed over night lby this time it was morn- ingl with Ann Pigott and the other half with Margot Royce. Noon found us over at the Pigotts' eating breakfast, cleaning up, and hearing who had a date with whom after this very successful mixer. October 29- Today, as the colors of orange and black loomed before us, we realized the gym stage was set for the annual Halloween party. The upper school under Mr. LaGrille and the social committee officiated, and the program included many novel- ties. In the parade of costumes, Alan Greiner won first prize modeling the scare-crow his mother had made, and Shirley fthe birdl Steele was outstanding. Games and races of all types followed, and were climaxed by the passing out of ice- cream, and nuts which appealed to young and old C?J alike. November 24 This year at Thanksgiving, more than ever before, we of Helen Bush School realized how much we have to be grateful for. Keeping this in mind, the sophomores, with the help of iam SCHOOL CHRONICLE Mrs. Stephens, put on an unusually fine program today. It was based on a typical American homo, with a United States Marine graciously portraying the father, Kay Black the mother, Betts Hansen their daughter, and Leland Bull their son. As in pre- ceding years, food, clothing and money were brought for our Thanksgiving offerings, the latter to be taken to the Seattle Children's Home. December 16- The traditional Manor Hall of Bush opened its portals to welcome the mothers and dads tonight. For the new parents, who were greeted by Phil Rattray and Midi Sawyer Cas the Lord and Ladyl, it was a thrilling sight to see the stained glass windows, the tapestries, and the many wreathes and evergreen chains. Another nice thing was that during the course of the evening, there was a time when every parent could say, That's my Johnny or, there's Susie. The program consisted of several dances by Parkside, two by Bush, music from the chorus and orchestra, and the Junior class presentation of The Juggler of Our Lady. When the program was complete, the cast of the play and the members of the Glee Club piled into three station wagons and were whisked away to the Se- attle Children's Home to give a command performance. The boys and girls loved it and so did We. March '7- Slapping on grease paint is really fun, as we seniors discovered while preparing for Shubert Alley under the direction of Margretta Ramsey.

April 11- Dad's Night, as Mrs. Bush said in her address to the fathers, is one of the favorite functions of the year. It started by an excellent Glee Club performance which was followed by a Choral poem and Square Dance presented by the fresh- men. Helen Buschmann and Anne Macfarlane were next we SCHOOL CHRONICLIQ in a duo-piano number, and the evening ended with the basket-ball final which was played off by the freshmen and juniors. The juniors won, but better watch out, as with a little more practice, this year's freshmen will make life more than dificult for them. During the intermission of this great game there was another in which six dads fought mightly with six seniors. The result was a chaos of screams and laughs plus a great deal of admiration in the direction of Mr. Frayn. He should come and visit to teach us the finer points of basket- ball! fN'est-ce pas?J. May 26- As we go to press, we are looking forward to the Fine Arts Tea which will be held on May 26th. This includes various types of music, dancing, and artistic efforts Csuch as paintings an sculpture! which have been in the making since the be- ginning of the year. It is an occasion which all the proud parents and friends may attend and is one of the highspots in the school year. June 4-9- Senior Week, otherwise known as the time we have been stal- ling for the last four years, is coming around slowly but surely! We seniors will be dashing off to breakfasts, luncheons, cruises, dinners, and many other things Csome of which are censoredl. It will undoubtedly be the biggest time in our lives,-and X56 U we'1l make the most of it. vw. , Sty I .g-Pt, ya HIDDEN TALENT 73 PART FOUR CHAPTER ONE DRAMATICS The first dramatic attempt of the year was a hilarious one-act rhythm play coached by Mrs. Stephens and acted largely by members of the drama class. Jackie Binns in a long black com- mencement robe swaying back and forth in time to her sing-song lines, Barbara Ludberg as the Court Clerk never missing a beat as she ushered in the witnesses and prisoner, Beanie Black as the glamour girl managing to swagger. weep, flirt with the judge and still keep perfect time, were all something to remember. The Thanksgiving play given by the soph- mores was a departure from the traditional tab- leau representing the Spirits of Giving, Receiving, and Thanksgiving. This year a modern family was represented on the stage complete with a young Marine borrowed from the University. A typical American family sharing our harvest with the world! The Junior performance at Christmas was an impressive adaptation of The Juggler of Our Lady with Jackie Binns as the Juggler and ' Joan Southwick as the lovely statute of Our MARGRETTA RAMSEY Lady. Then on March 16th the seats were filled, the lights dimmed and the fingers of every senior crossedffthat was the prelude to two hours filled with fast moving action and drama, which no senior of the class of '44 will ever forget. The mere mention of the name is required to remind the seniors of the good times they had in producing this successful play. It brings back memories of long hours after school in which Margretta Ramsey, their talented director, took the seniors over their lines again and again, showed their intricate footing patterns and gave them instruction in the art of make up and general backstage conduct. Never will they forget the times they ap- plied too much rouge here and the wrong-colored eyelashs there, when getting ready for those panicky dress rehersals which always spell a wonderful real performance, which it was. A S 74 ACCENT ON RYTHM CHAPTER TWO MUSIC Vigorous, effervescent Mrs. Livengood is the backbone of music here at Bush. Having returned from a tour of eastern schools, stuyding new techniques and approaches to musical in- struction as well as the function of student government, she is full of new and scintillating ideas. She not only conducts classes in harmony, composition, and speech, but directs the chorus and trains the orchestra. Parkside also has an orchestra, which is under Mrs. Livengood's direction, capable of musical understanding and interpretation far beyond their years. These various and sundry groups of musicians lend much GLEE CLUB-Front row: Left to right: Spalding, DeCamp, Bennett, Donald, Bell, Binns, Parker, Allen.

The chorus has sung for the Christmas party, D. A. R. House gatherings, the U. S. O., Senior Play intermission, Fath- er's Night, Fine Arts Tea, as well as several special assemblies here at school. The orchestra also has performed with the chorus on several occasions. The student body is literally overflowing with capable pianists such as Helen Buschmann, Anne Macfarlane, Katie Clare Roys, ldalice Squire and Kay Parker. There are also the vocalists Geneva Spalding and Phyllis Rattray, Ola Bell, flutist, and the crop of violin players grows larger every year. All of these musicians lend their talents to student assemblies and other functions. Not to be forgotten are Mrs. Turner and Mrs. Jackson who have skillfully guided many pianists over the rough spots in their musical careers. Eli W i ARTISTIC EXPANSION CHAPTER THREE ART The art students this year have great variety in their methods of working and in their mediums. The art shack, the lair of these enthusiasts, proudly displays everything from drawings to plaster casts, which represent the inspiration and toil of the school year. Under the supervision of Mr. LaGrille the older pupils were free to work in any medium -that they wished while the younger students worked out designs in ink and compositions in water color. The department was very fortunate to have been able to have an excellent model for its life class. This opportunity afforded the class experience in life drawing and painting. Before the year was over almost everyone had experimented in clay modeling. plaster casting, poster making, and oil-painting as well. Much information was gathered from conversation while the girls worked. The art exhibits in the halls came in for much dis- cussion from time to time with Mr. LaGrille having to explain the beauty and merit of modern art, particularly, since most students find it extremely confusing.

Coming down the street, far in the distance, the steady, faint tapping of heels could be heard. Mr. Grady, the policeman on this beat for five years, stopped under a street light and lit a cigarette. At the sound of approach- ing footsteps, he looked up and saw his relief officer. Hi Grady. All well? . All is calm as a sleeping dog. Guess no one dares venture out in this awful soup. Well, I'll go get a cup of coffee now and then go home. Be careful, this is a nasty night. With these encouraging words the two men departed, one to the com- fort of a nice warm room, the other to his old monotonous routine of pa- trolling the docks. As each went out of view, a blood curdling scream rose from the direc- tion of the harbor. The sound of run- ning footsteps and a whistle were heard, then stillness settled again only to be broken by a moaning fog horn. Out of the darkness, a lone solitary figure slipped, cautiously looked around before he crossed the street, and then he seemed to fade into the darkness of some doorway. Presently he again appeared and went directly to a cheap rooming house a few blocks up. With his hand on the door knob, he turned towards the harbor and muttered to himself, Well, that's done. He'll never cause any more trouble again. He stealthily let himself into the rooming house, and climbed toward his third floor room. A few more steps and he'd be in the safety of his room, when- Good evening Mr. Stephens. Why. what's the matter? You look as if you had seen a ghost! Well, I see you don't have that darned old cat with you. Did you have trouble get- ting rid of it ? -Janis Kerr-Senior I WATCHED A PLANE I watched a plane When I was quite small A dare-devil, bright painted craft. The tricks it performed astonished the crowds, A fun-loving, carefree show-off it was- Entertainment it had for a name. 78 LITERARY IINIPERIALISTS I watched a plane When years I had gained, A silvery, eagle-winged giant. Its speed and its comfort caused all to commend it, A stream-lined, window clad liner was this- Business it aptly was called. I watched a plane , When conflict had come, An earth-shaking, camouflaged monster. Its power carried fear to enemy nationsg This menacing, ruinous bird of the battle, With Destruction its well-chosen title. I close my eyes, And I watch a plane, A misty obscure apparition. A gun-bearing, hate-wreaking dragon is this? Or a smooth-bodied, friend of the world? I cannot tell its use and description, For 'Future is the name of this plane. -Jana Pratt-Senior GREEN MOSS It was beautiful there beneath the sea. The sun, shining through fathoms of clear green water, played on the schools of tiny, bright-colored fish, and on the larger lazy-moving silver fish. A clipper ship, hardly visible lay buried in the sand, with only the rotted hull and pointed mast dis- cernible. The soft brown wood and white sand were made one by the waving green moss and pink coral covering them. This pleasant place was occasion- ally disturbed by a groping tentacle from behind the fortress of coral which transformed the water into an apparently alien place for all ani- mation. Then back would drift the lazy fish and the moss would stir again. But once, just once, it was more than a hungry sea monster that filled the happy place with terror. It was the monster of man, a great iron devil that belched flashing tubes which swam without fins, but with the speed of light. When the fish at last dared to re- turn to their homes, and the moss to sway again there came through the fathoms of water an exploding, blazing, oil-coated mass of sheered metal that slowly settled down with a deep groan and last sigh, to join the other ship in death. It was long before the moss ven- tured to grow on the monster, but when it did, interesting and appalling things were seen. What were these strange staring creatures with hands grasping at locked doors or caught half way out a jammed porthole? Eventually the grey mass became as natural as the ship of a hundred years ago, and nestled close to it in the friendly sand. The tiny gold fish found a new home in its many in- tricate apartments. The slimy crea- tures finally disappeared, and only a. small white hat was left floating in a half filled chamber. Lovely coral and bright colored fish soon beauti- fied man's destruction and the green moss swayed gently with the tide. -Kay Parker-Sophomore A POETIC ESSAY ON TI-IE TURKEY The turkey is a bird quite rare, He lives in sundry places. His legs and beak are very bare. He's fond of making faces. When hungry he is know to Feef! ' His appetite is big. His favorite vegetable is beef, His favorite meat is fig. LITERAY IMPERIALISTS For dinner there is nothing better, QMuch to his disrnay,J Than himself all baked in butter. Oh! unhappy day! So we'll leave our little friend a- boiling, In his grease so deep.

They were old fash- ioned ladies' walking shoes with a white kid top trimmed in lace. The heels needed building up. He won- dered who would be wearing a pair of shoes like this in this age. When the shoes were repaired he watched for the person who would call for them. A young girl turned out to be the owner. When the cobbler asked her why she was having them re- paired she said that they were to be the something old in her wedding. It was a custom that had been ob- served since her great-grandmothers time. The next pair of shoes he became interested in was a pair of boots. They were covered with mud and needed polishing and soles. When they were ready he noticed that they were both for the left foot. As it turned out the man had only the left leg and he worked as a surveyor. On his way home the cobbler no- ticed the shoes of the people he saw on the street. The minister's shoes were a little worn at the toe probably from praying. A little boy's were scuffed all over from climbing the cement wall in his school. A woman's pumps, black fthey had once been brownl were the next. She was poor and had to dye them instead of buying lss-A.s.... - . o,,,7.? new ones. Two soldiers in their G.I. boots passed stepping briskly with rhythm. He looked at the shoes of them all. No one could understand why he was a cobbler. It seemed ironical that he should mend shoes because he had no legs. -Diane Halsey-Sophomore A CONVERSATION WITH A MINUTE Tiny, fleeting minute, Scarcely worth this rhyme, Slipping on so swiftly, Through the hands of time, First future, then present, Very soon you're past, Such a flashy fellow, Can nothing make you last? The minute flies by quickly, But much to my surprize, The tick-talk which it gives me, Is extremely wise: Spend my seconds carefully, Later you will find, Some usefulness remains, Though I am far behind. ' -Betts Hansen-Sophomore THE GREAT BLACK OGRE Hopes undone, Words unsaid, Rhymes unwritten, Books unread, Work to finishw Yes, but when? Growing, growing heaps of things, Heaps of things that might have been. And then is born a horrid, crawling thing, That lurking, smirking, skulking black imp, Time. That loathsome murderer of all things good, That watching, waiting, hungry devil, Time. 80 LITERARY IMPERIALISTS He feeds and grows on undone work, On lovely paintings, still in mind, On lilting lines of poetry, Still to one's thoughts confinedg On words unwritten, Thoughts unspoken, Plans unfinished, News unbrokeng And gloating o'er these unborn treasures, Gloating, growing, gorging, swell- ing, Fatt'ning on these unborn treasures Lurks unseen the black imp, Time. But all the same he's looming larger, Gloating, growing, looming larger, While the hopeless mound of futile plans, ideas, hopes of men, Frail ghosts of things that might have been, Moves onward toward eternity, to perish unexpressed. And so the hungry black imp, Time, Devours the hopes and plans of men and fatter grows, Until at last he rears his ugly head And cast's a despot's shadow over all. No longer does he skulk behind the scenes, And nibble, rat-like, at the crumbs that fall, But leering, laughing, seizing what he wants, He turns his naked countenance on earth, And with his ever-growing greed Makes hopeless slaves of men. HBabs Peyser--Junior ' ..1.:..,u,:v N v, 1 sz p Agggg BEGINNEYGS OF UNDERSTANDINGS PART FIVE PARKSIDE Although none of the upper schoolers have any of the same classes as the Parksiders, we are well aware that they are a thriv- ing part of our school. They make themselves evident in more ways than one. It is a common sight to see them sitting in neat but wiggly rows in the gymnasium, intently watching a classmate demonstrate his hither-to unheralded talents. At other times a flash of clothing and flying hair, accompanied by a joyous shriek, proclaims to all those working in the annex that the lower school recess has begun and by the time that the sing-song chant of the jump-ropers penetrates the room, there is no doubt that recess is well under way. It was very apparent that the lower school has more members than ever this year when, at the Halloween party, we had two costumed figures as companions instead of one. As usual we had a little difficulty, at first, in telling what was underneath those witches, ghosts, cats, and pumpkin masks, but as the party wore on, masks were removed and we became better acquainted. The dedication of the new play field was another big all-school event. during which there were dances by the Parksiders and a baseball game between the sixth grade boys and the seventh and eighth grade girls. The boys showed the effects of their afterschool ath- letics by winning a comfortable victory. All of us, especially those who have, younger brothers and sisters at home, realize that clubs now rank as one of the most im- portant lower school activities. The boys, who seem to aspire to Charles Atlas physiques, can be seen any evening engrossed in muscle-building gymnastics, while the girls participate with them in hobbies. During the year they have by turns a Stamp Club, Spanish Club, Sewing Club, Collectors' Club, Nature Study Club, and a Modeling Club that does airplanes and automobiles. Another important department of Parkside is the pre-school division which is a little farther removed from our usual haunts. The thing that most amazes us about these little tots is their paintings, some doneeven by the two-year-olds, that are displayed at the fine arts tea. 84 BEGINNINGS OF UNDERSTANDINGS PARKSIDE LITERARY GEMS SI-IIN ING LIGHTS Although the stars shine very bright, Street lights are turned on at night. -Catharine McColl-2nd Grade THE WOLF Once upon a time there was a wolf that lived in the woods. There was a palace nearby. The wolf always went there and stole food from the cook. One day the king called his ser- vants and said, Dig a trap by the door. The wolf shall come no more! The servants made the trap outside. That night sure enough, the wolf came. Silently the wolf came up. Then BANG! The wolf fell into the trap. The King was awakened by the crash of the falling wolf. The whole palace was glad and lived happily ever after. -Julia Henke-2nd Grade WHY Don't be a why baby! There's no why to it, Just do it! Lucy Ann Davidson, 514 yrs. Mary Ann Otis, 7 yrs. THE OLD CLOCK Five times the old clock's chimes did ring, Five times the old clock seemed to sing, Then lay on the mantle so cold and still, Will it sound again? No, it never will. Across the room on a rickety bed The old clock's master lay cold and dead. He could not wind it and there it stood, the old clock's heart was only wood. -Diana Yates-6th Grade But A MOUSE I saw a little mouse, And a tiny mouse was he, He was hiding in some bushes Near a great big tree. 4Dorothy Hutchinson-4th Grade THE SMOKE OF BATTLE The smoke of battle has cleared away, Death has reaped its harvest for an- other day. Yes, the smoke of battle has cleared away, ' Taps have sounded to end the day. Gallant soldiers with pain are wrought, Lonely patrols by the Germans are sought. But never a whimper or cry can you hear, Though many a heart is torn with fear. Some of the men will never return To their family of loved ones for which they yearn Yes, the smoke of battle has cleared away And many brave lads have died today. -J im Harron-6th Grade -L' rv s. eu cn J H rs L..
