Page tvientyg, gg, gg. . gsgidswoo l-.THEJS5S1i1Q Qeninr Qlllass bisturp At 8:45, on a bright morning in September, 1925, began the preparations for the great production, Graduation, The aspirants, who had formerly taken the part of mere extras, seemed to be quite thrilled with the prospects of their first roles. The first stage presentation was efficiently directed by Miss Steele and a staff of advisors. This staff was composed of Howard Moses, Director or President, Ruth Treadwell, Assistant Director or Vice-President, and Grace Doyle, Camera Man or Secretary. The reporter, John Stroessler, kept the fans informed of the activities. After the first try-outs and screen tests, some of the would-be actors lost their enthusiasm and decided to discontinue their career along the movie line, others even fell victims to the little love god, and took unto themselves partners for life. But their places have been filled from time to time, by others, showing their ability to become a part of the cast. Some of the actors, as a recreation decided to turn out for various athletics, and C. H. S. certainly will never forget our letter men: Sussex, Moses, Richardson, Boyles, Jones, Shotwell, St. John, Calkin, Blackburn, Butler, and Berry, Athletic Manager. The girls were not far behind, giving us such material as: Florine Jones, Eva Strutzel, Janie Pipkin, and Doris Couch. One of the most important scenes of our first stage presentation was Il scene in the fall of the year, featuring the Freshman Initiation and Mjixer, at which all seemed to be enjoying themselves. Another scene was taken in the spring. Every Freshman was having an especially good time at a picnic. Miss Steele was quite busily engaged in accounting for every member of the class. The second stage presentation by the Class of '29 began on September 13, 1926, under the direction of Miss Batie. The staff of advisors consisted of Viola Long, Director, Howard Moses, Assistant, Harold Simonson, Camera Man, and Harvey Shotwell, Treasurer, while Ruth Treadwell kept the fans well posted on the events of this presentation. With the success of the first and second undertaking in mind, we started the third stage presentation of our big production, Graduation, with Howard Moses again Director, Harvey Shotwell, Assistant, and John Stroessler, Camera Man. Miss Steele, having shown her directing ability in the first presentation, was persuaded to sign the contract as director of the third stage presentation. Grace Doyle was elected to keep the enthusiastic fans acquainted with the events of this, the third and best feature of our movie career. Besides our usual picnic, we had two scenes of importance: our first vitaphone act, Adam and Eva, which proved to be a big success, and the Junior-Senior Banquet. For the latter, the hall was charmingly decorated in pastel colors, featuring butterflies and Japanese lanterns and fans, giving the impression of a garden party. In the fall of '28 we began the work on the last stage presentation of Graduation, under the direction of Miss Carter. The staff of advisors were: Director, John Stroesslerg Assistant Director, Harvey Shotwell, Cam- era Man, Vivian Burrowg Treasurer, Viola Long, and Grace Doyle kept the fans interested in the last stage production for C. H. S. Our first vitaphone act was so well received that we decided to feature :ti second act, Kempy, which proved to be even a greater success than the irst. A number of important scenes of Graduation, will be recorded else- where in this annual. On May 23, the great production Graduation, was completed, starring Vivian Burrow, valedictorian and Ruth Treadwell, salutatorian.

THE KA SHMIR Page twenty-one We, Senior Qtlass will the Senior Class of 1929 of Cashmere High School, being in as right mind as Seniors ever are, on leaving these beloved halls wherein we have suffere-d, endured, and finally conquered in all our lesser knowledge-- with sorrow in our hearts, and solemn blessings on our quivering lips, do proudly leave the following: To Mr. Caulkins and Miss Long: Our admiration for their seemingly unlimited calm and patient demeanor towards us. Our sympathy at their losing a class for which there is no equal. Our gratitude for all their wise counseling and well-meant criticism and praise throughout our school years. To our beloved teachers: Our deepest respect and the hope they may be able to endure through many more such trying years. To the Juniors flncoming Seniorsbz The thrills and joys of being high and. mighty. Our love and best wishes. fWe know how they'll need 'em.J To the Sophomores: The hope that having passed the first year of many trials and much ridicule, they may blossom into that most wonderful class of all, the Juniors. To the Freshmen: The hope that they may grow, and our greatest sympathy. To the Lunchroom: Our compliments, and a hope that it may prosper. To the Athletes and their Staunch Supporters: Our wishes for many more victories in future years. To the Janitor: A wish that all future classes may cause him as little worry and trouble as the Class of '29. Last but not least, we feel that we must leave a few of our many charac- teristics and mannerisms, individually, to the Juniors and Lower Classmen: Janie Pipkin leaves Sadie to help Cashmere Basketball Girls become champions. Calvin Blackburn planned to leave his heart to some young Freshy, but it's too late now. Lucile Pittman leaves all debates, whether personal or scholastic, to Philip Paine. Virgil Bohlke leaves his talking ability to Donald Morley. Make use of it, Donald. Willard Boyles leaves his boisterous tricks to Albert Johnson. Clare Butler leaves his good looks to Willard Hayden. Maxine Sim gladly leaves her clog dancing to Margaret Loudenback to be used at a What-Not. Thomas Brollier leaves his ability as stage manager to Lillian Chamber- lain. Eva Strutzel leaves her rowdiness to Murriel Newberry. Harold Calkins leaves his mischievous Ways to Helen Joy. Margaret Weldon leaves her double chin to anyone who wants it. Ruth Treadwell leaves nothing to anyone in particular, but leaves her Mona Lisa smile to all.
