Some few will reach the topmost spot, Some will stop before they're through, Some will sueceed, some will not, And some their ways will learn to rue. But we'll ne’er forget these cherished walls, The teachers’ inflicted torture, too, The hard, hard seats, the clustered halls, And our resolves to start anew. The coveted corners of certain twos, And most of us were not immune, The seats in study hall we’d choose So to our friends we could commune. We've had our sorrows and our joys, Our playing and our working. Joyful carefree girls and boys, We've spent much time in shirking. Although at times we must confess, In moments sacrificial, We adorned most any desk With many a earved initial. And now our four years are finished. We're no more lasses and lads ! But our prestige has not diminished, | For now we are high school grads; : And we won't forget these high school days, Many a memory we'll recall, And we'll know in many ways, How we have really loved it all. —Lorraine Cales. Classes Page Seventeen noon qmpnmnamnnummmname at eusrinsinstee nes Sh nt A EE Juniors J unIoP Glace: N the fall of 1928, C. H. S. experienced one of the greatest thrills in her history. Why! The class of ’32 entered C. H. S. to lead in school activities for four years. Although the class entered as green as any Frosh group, at the first meeting, good judgment was shown when Richard Rockwell was elected president: Kenneth O’Brist, vice-presi- dent; Bernice Campbell, secretary; Melvin Davis, treasurer; and Miss Laurabelle Minter, adviser. The activities of C. Ee S. were backed with vim and vehemence and the year ended successfully with Freshman Day and the Class Pienic. ; In 1929, the green had worn off, and they entered as en- thusiastic Sophomores. Elinor Castle was elected president; Verol Elmendorf, vice president: Dorothy Fellows, secretary; Foster Teevan, treasurer: and Miss Laurabelle Minter, adviser, to pilot our class through another successful year. The elass was represented in various activities, as Jacqueline Wolfson won the vocal solo in the Southwest Washington Musie Tournament, and Foster Teevan was a member of the debate team. The class party was a “sleuthing” one, and proved ex- ceedingly interesting with its trials and tribulations. This year the mighty Juniors elected Doris Taylor, presi- eee dent; Warren Holm, vice president; Virginia Scanlon. secretary; Tacdeeoen Howard Frykholm, treasurer; Janet Doran, song queen; How- ard Garrison, yell king; and Miss Alice Atkinson and Mr. Carl Laudenbach, advisers. The originality of the class was displayed by changing the custom of class Jewelry to class sweaters of blue with sand colored numerals of 1932. The class was represented in football by Jimmy Myers, Johnnie Clark, Clift- P age Eighteen Juniors inion on O’Connor, Verol Elmendorf, Alvin Rhodes, Orville Herriford, | Randal Roberson; in basketball, by Johnnie Clark, Alvin Rhod- es and Charles DeCraene; in baseball by Charles Vogel, Eugene Sholar, Walter Olmsteead, Donald Naismith, and Johnnie Clark. Mareh 6 marked the successful production of the three act play, “The Mummy and the Mumps,” coached by Miss Herndon Smith. This play may be classed as great or an even greater success than the Junior plays of previous years. Those taking part were: Elinor Castle, Janet Doran, Mildred Cowin, Doris Taylor, Wanda Freeman, Donald Shelton, Foster Teevan, Gordon de Weese, Horace Nunnelee, and Howard Frykholm. Instead of the Junior-Senior pienic of former years, the classes gave separate ones this year. The Junior elass of 1932 held their pieniec at Offut Lake, Wednesday, May 20. The pienie met the approval of all attending, and the wish for many more. Committes were: Food, chairman, Mabel Richard- son; Transportation, chairman, Harold A. Johnson: and en- tertainment, chairman, Johnnie Clark. Mark Crown received the LeRoy Hall Trophy for the win- ning of the Cross-Country Race. Mark is the second winner Scanlan of the trophy, Paul Sweet being the receiver of the eup last paces Atkinson year. Other Junior class contenders were: Clifton O’Connor, Jimmy Myers, Ronald Shelton, Chester Ullin, Harold Nunnelee, Horace Nunnelee, Billy Judson, and Marcellus Laughlin. The members of the class are predicting that next year will be the best in the history of the class. Page Nineteen Classes Sophomores Sophomores N entering C. H. S. last year, the class of 1933 chose Robert Sapp, president; Robert Sweet, vice president: Helen Jones, secretary; and Marian Copley, treasurer, to be _ its leaders in the various Freshman activities. The class party, held in the gymnasium, was the form of an “Old Time College Meet.’ Due to the untiring efforts of Miss Thomas and Miss Stewart, the new class had a very successful year. The following September found the class of ’33 raised a notch in class prestige. This year as Sophomores, the group elected as its officers; Robert Sweet, president: Janette Ray, vice president; Jeanne Davies, secretary; and Lois Watson, treasurer. The most important project of the year was “Sophomore Week.” This was opened by a most interesting and profitable assembly consisting of numbers by the Sophomore orchestra, songs, dances, and a clever skit by some of the most talented members. As an incentive for prompt payment of dues, a contest was held between the girls under Marian Copley and the boys under Jimmy Bamford. The Sophomores further showed their school loyalty by : { Sic soundly beating the Freshman class in an attendance contest j Davies uy Granville at one of the basketball games. : The girls, with the financial aid of the Girls League, sponsored a tea as a tribute to their mothers. An interesting program was given in the Auditorium, followed by delightful refreshments served in the Annex. The class of ’33 was represented in interscholastie athletics by Dayton Classes Page Twenty Sophomores Sophomores Nietert, basketball and track; Billy Robinson, football and basketball; and Phillip Raymond, football and basketball. Miss Montfort and Mr. Glanville were the faithful advisers of the elass. The Sophomores were elected to a number of offices of prominence for next year. Dayton Nietert will be the new A. S. B. vice-president, Jean Davies is the new Girls’ League president, Jean De Champlain, secretary and Lois Watson, treas- urer of the same organization. Wednesday, May 20, marked the date of another Sophomore activity, the class pienie, which was held at Deep Lake. Such sports as canoeing baseball, swimming, pitching horseshoes, were enjoyed during the day by everyone present. Chairmen of committees in charge were: Frances Lemm, food; and Royal Keily, transportation. This is the first time in several years that the Sophomore class has held a pienie and its great success marks future dates for many more. Three Sophomores received perfect grade ecards during the entire year; Jeanette Ray, Alberta Stewart, and Jimmy Bam- ford. As a class, the Sophomores had a large percentage of their number on the honor roll. Due, both to a class spirit that it is fruitless to attempt Ray Watson Miss Montfort to extinguish, and also to the work of a competent advisory group, the Sophomore class has been and to all outward appearances, will continue to be one of the outstanding classes of the school. Page Twenty-one Classes Freshmen lsrechmren ROM all four directions of our local universe came the students that memorial day of September 2, 1930, to make up the Freshman class, and what a class! Nothing lacking to make it one of the best of all the Freshman classes of the school’s history. Events have trod right on the heels of other events, this year, and the Freshman class has not allowed it to be shaded in any way by its older and more experienced groups. Soon after the first day of school, the Freshmen assembled to organize the class, and elect officers. Those chosen were: Dale Crown, president; Opal Blankenship, vice president; Don- na Richards, secretary; and Thelma Hunter, treasurer. One fourth of students that were on the honor roll were from the Freshman class. Lo! We have a queen in our midst. Early in the fall, C. H. S. was ealled upon to pick a queen from all the girls in the high school for the celebration of the city’s new Hydro- Electric plant. After two or three days of keen competition this honor went to Thelma Hunter, a member of the Freshman class. Much interest and enthusiasm has been shown by the class a in sports. The Freshman girls made a good turn-out in Misoe Woedin Girls’ Athletics. Also Everett Young is the proud bearer of a letter in basketball. Other activities in which the class has participated are, Orchestra, Glee Club, and Dramatics. They also made a good showing in the Annual drive, with Donna Richards as their candidate, who won second place. Due credit for the year’s success should be given to the Class Advisers, Classes Page Twenty-two Freshmen [reshmen Miss Wing and Miss Wooden. Without their helpful guidance the Freshman Class undoubtedly would have had some perplex- ing roads to travel. Several programs were given before the Freshman class, the best features of which were combined into an interesting assembly given before the whole school. The numbers inelud- ed in the program were: “Give the Audience a Chance,” a skit; “Diamonds and Detectives,” a skit; “Alice Blue Gown,” a song by Glenna Brunton; a “Cane Dance,” by Lucille Lay and Margaret Hagstrom; and a song and dance number, “When It- ish Eyes Are Smiling,” dance by Rosie Howland and Marjorie Barrett’ and song by chorus of Freshman girls. In stead of having a class party as did the other groups, the Freshmen, who had paid their dues, attended a matinee theatre party at the Fox Theatre, May 15. The picture shown was Trader Horn. Candy and cake were served in the cafeteria before the picture show. Several Freshman received all As on their report cards i Aue Crown consistently throughout the year. Those receiving such grades Binkenckio were: Helen Conrad, Edel Christenson, Frances Thomas, Jane Miss Wing Thompson, Darwin Cunningham, and Clifford Wasson. This year the Freshman class showed great interest and enthusiasm in all school activities, and a “Peppy” Frosh, make up a very promising group for their future years in C. H. S. Page Twenty-three Classes CE Soey OT one class alone can accomplish great things. Yet combined, the Freshman—with a new supply of energy, Sophomores—with their untired cheerful- ness and spirit, the Juniors—building up activities for year’s glory, Seniors—with their mighty stores of knowledge—all working together— Cooperation—the secret of success.

Page Twenty-seven School Activities Debate George Beckim, Miss Dorothea Dowty, Rhea Faulkenbury, Robert Miller | Debate HE Centralia High School debate jinx was completely overcome this year by the winning of all the four league debates. Much of the season’s success is due to the efforts of the coach, Miss Dorothea Dowty and to the team which was composed of George Beckim, Robert Miller and Rhea Faulkenbury, as well as to the splendid support and cooperation of the entire Student Body. The season’s first league debate was against Rochester at home: the second against Shelton, at Shelton; the third against Hoquiam at Centralia, and the fourth against Klaber, at Klaber. The question for debate was, Resolved: That. all automobile owners be required by law to earry insurance covering personal liability and property damage. Although Centralia did not win the coveted district championship, it ranked third among the seventeen entering schools in the Southwest Wash- ington Debate League. Next year, the C. H. S. debate team will be built around a nucleus of one experienced debater, Robert Miller, who is a Junior. The other two members of the team were graduated in 1931. The debate question for next year has not yet been decided, but the debating record for this year should be incentive enough to warrant a credit- able turnout next year.

Throckmorton, Ness, Taylor, Myers, Doran, Breen, Miss Warren Cle League HE Girls’ League, composed of every girl in High School, is organized to render service, lend moral support to the school, and cultivate higher ideals among the girls. Under the advisership of Miss Lulu Warren, the Girls’ League has been very active during the year. The first undertaking was the Big Sister plan, and in keeping with this movement, a party was given by the Big Sisters for the Little Sisters on Oct- ober 3, 1930 in the Lincoln Gym. A suecessful charity drive was sponsored at Thanksgiving, when clothing and food were collected for the city’s less fortunate. The Girls’ League served in the capacity of hostesses for the Washington Edueational Association convention, held in Centralia, October 23 and 24. The main objective of the club this spring has been a series of teas at whieh the girls of each class have entertained their mothers. To climax these, a large tea was held in May at the Centralia Hotel, honoring all of the mothers of the school, at which time a style show was given by the sewing classes of Miss Margaret Stitt. The officers this year were Elinor Castle, president; Geraldine Martin, vice president; Laura Breen, secretary; Dora May Conrad, treasurer; Marceil Myers, athletic chairman; Marjorie Wattenbarger, finance chairman; Lois Doran, social chairman; and Annie Sprague, scholarship chairman. Page Twenty-nine School Activities Music School Activities M uSIC Department HE main musical event of the year was the comie opera “Pinafore” present- ed in the high school auditorium May 15. It was the biggest musical production ever attempted in C. H. S., and both the directors and the students deserve a great deal of praise for the weeks of preparation they spent in making it a success. C. H. S. was well represented in the Musie Meet this year at Vancouver. The Instrumental Ensemble composed of Thelma Korklin, Dorothyann Schuffert and Howard Jones, placed third. C. H. S. took one first, in the con- tralto solo by Ruth Baker, and Joseph McShane tied for second in the bari tone solo.. Virginia Harned placed third, in piano. Other events which placed in the preliminaries were the soprano solo by Ruby Throckmorton, trumpet solo, Frank McDowell, and the mixed quartette, including Harriet Neely, Loretta Perry, Dayton Nietert, and Bud Kern. Under the leadership of Miss Retta Wooden, the Girls’ Glee Club has had a busy and successful season. They have sung for several lodges, and assem- blies, as well as participating in the Christmas Cantata and the opera “Pina- fore.” Although the Girls’ Glee did not place in the annual Southwest Music Meet, they deserve a great deal of credit for their hard work. The Boys’ Glee Club, directed by Mr. Victor McClelland, placed second in the S. W. W. Music Meet. They also participated in the Christmas Concert and the opera “Pinafore.” The band under the leadership of Mr. McClelland, has nobly done its part in adding pep and enthusiasm to many school activities. They have played for a number of the games and for a great many assemblies and lodges in the city. As well as playing in the Christmas Concert, they performed very creditably in the Music Meet. A number of concerts in the City Park, on Sunday afternoons, closed a very successful year for the band. The orchestra, also directed by Mr. McClelland, has a year of creditable performances to its eredit. They played for the three one act plays in Jan., as well as accompanying the cast of “Bimbo the Pirate” to Tono. The com- bined band and orchestra played for the Christmas Concert and especially should they be commended on their fine work in the opera “Pinafore.” They also participated in the Music Meet, and although a number were absent because of illness, they showed up very well. The prospect for the next few years, is bright, for both band and orchestra, as most of the members are underclassmen, so they will be back next year.

Two years ago the officers of minor organizations were included, but last year they were eliminated and a representative was elected from each roll room. This year, they, too, have been eliminated and the organization con- sists only of President, Vice-president, Secretary, and Treasurer of the Stu- dent Body, and the elass presidents and secretaries. The officers elected this year were: Edward Spurgeon, president; Verol Elmendorf, vice-president; Gaynell McCann, secretary; Foster Teevan, treasur- er; Rhea Faulkenbury, Song Queen; and Irvin Greenleaf, Yell King. The 1930-31 season ticket sold for $4.00, which included admission to all in- ter-scholastic games, a subscription to the school paper, and the “C” Book. The school activities for the year ineluded football, basketball, baseball, tennis, golf, track, debate, and music. In football the Tigers tied for championship, in basketball they placed third, and at the music tournament, C. H. S. musicians placed fifth. With the aid of the business men and the American Legion the Centralia High School became the proud owner of a new grandstand, 300 feet long with eight rows of seats. Dressing rooms, lockers, and other equipment are to be instelled next year. An opera entitled “Pinafore” was given on May 15th, by a cast picked from the entire student body.

About this time the State Vocational Agricultural Department made it possible for the Ag. clubs to affiliate with the national organization known as the Future Farmers of America. This chapter was one of the first ten in the state to apply for their national charter, and it is known as the Centralia Chapter. State, Divisional and National meetings are held each year, the state meetings at the agricutural colleges and the National Meetings at the Kansas City Royal Livestock Show. National officers are elected there. Due to the fact that membership in the organization is retained for three years after graduation, the National President is a Freshman at University of Missouri. An executive board is located in Washington D. C. The program at Centralia this year includes activities with other chapters in this vicinity, demonstrations before groups of farmers, a farmers banquet, and a spring pieniec. The sponsoring of livestock judging teams, other fair work, and the publishing of a little news bulletin were among the projects of the F, F. A. The Centralia chapter is a pioneer in the publication of a elub news bulletin. Organizations Dramatic Chub Row 1. Noel, Berlin, Brown, Lesser, Bechim, Kresky, Spurgeon, Overly, Larramendy, Packard.

The officers for the year were: Eugenia Davis, president; Ed Boardman and Pat Boardman, vice presidents; Virginia Harned, secretary; and Gordon Ber- lin, treasurer. Each year the club gives 3 One-Act Plays. This year, “The Patech-Work Quilt,” “Evening Dress Indispensable,’ and “Bimbo, The Pirate,” were present- ed January 16. The casts for these included: Ralph Hurn, Helen Jones, Frances Hall, Ruby Throckmorton, Vanee Noel, Howard Grimm, George Beckim, Dick Albritton, Gordon Berlin, Dudley Lewis, Spencer Rhody, John Clark, Jacque- line Wolfson, Rosemary Huffman, Opal Blankenship, Elizabeth Collier, Grant Packard, Lucille Harper, Edith Roff and Jane Thompson. Jewell Owen, Lota Lawrence and Fern Ness were prompters. A matinee, March 27, featured the one-act play, “The Leap Year Bride,” and vaudeville acts, combined into a street carnival scene in which every club member took part. This is the first time the club has offered a novel program like this, and it was well received by the students. The club has charge of a property and costume room for the school. They provided a make-up box for the use of the students in giving school en- tertainments. Miss Herndon Smith was this year’s club adviser. The year has been a successful one, due to the splendid work and cooperation of the members in the club.

The team was composed largely of last years lettermen, who were eleven in number. The rest of the squad was Lewis County material. Of the twenty-two men who received letters, thirteen of them will be back to fight for their Alma Mater next year. Those who were awarded their first football letters are Noel, Robinson, Ware. O’Connor, Burrows, Raymond, Elmendort Rhodes, and Rhody. Second year lettermen are Clark, Boardman, O’Brist, Kern, Albritton, Myers, Spurgeon, and Herriford. Woody Ullin and Howard Grimm are the only men to receive their third letter in football. Besides being Captain of this year’s team, Ullin was also the winner of the Warren O. Grimm cup last year. The Warren O. Grimm eup, w hich is awarded each year to the player, who is the biggest inspiration to his team went to Howard Grimm, nephew of the donor of the cup. Compared with preceeding years, this Season is rated as the best for the last ten years. A resume for the past five years is as follows: In 1925 won 2 games, lost 8; 1926 won 1, lost 5; 1922 won 38, lost 6; 1928 won PmlOstmcm tlieds lee 1929ewon, 4+ lost: 5: 1930 won 6, lost 0, tied 2.

E verett at Centralia The Tigers upset the dope when they eked out a victory over the power- ful Everett Seagulls by the seore of 6 to 0, in the first home game of the season.

The crowd was kept on their feet by the spectaular play. The final score was 0 to 0. Centralia at Aberdeen The Tigers annexed their first league game when they walloped the Aber- deen Bobeats, in a night game.

Vancouver breaks through Tiger defense Athletics Football Noel Herriford O’Conner Raymond at Centralia Both teams played ragged ball and the seoring was kept down by a slippery, muddy field. The Tigers were unable to penetrate the Seagulls’ offense with regularity but won 25-6. Centralia at Chehalis Centralia received the stiffest opposition of the season when they met the Beareats at the latter’s grounds. The Chehalis boys amassed a touchdown in the first quarter by a pass, and the Tigers were able to make a touchdown and the score was 6-6 a minute before the game ended. Hoquiam tries a line plunge Athletics Page Forty-five Basketball Coach Buckley Ware Ullin Clark Robinson asketball HE TIGERS began the season with a new coach, Archie Buckley, and only two lettermen, Ray Ware, and Woody Ullin from last year’s state tournament team. The team started this season very auspiciously by winning all their prelim- inary games by decisive margins, but they hit a jinx in the first league game at Chehalis and lost by a score of 13 to 16. Playing their second game against Stadium on our home floor, the Tigers were again defeated by a score of 34 to 21. The game was exciting and more interesting than the score indicates. : The Aberdeen Bobeats had a hard time taking the Tigers 20 to 12 in the next league game at the Harbor City. Again the Tigers came close to winning a game against the Olympia Bears in a fast and thrilling game, but didn’t have the extra scoring punch and lost by a score of 24 to 18. Playing a fast and rough game, which was not decided until the closing seconds, the Tigers were defeated by the Lincoln Abes 23 to 20. Although beaten decisively by the Grizzlies from Hoquiam, the game was annulled because of the ineligibility of one of their players. The Tigers started the second round of play with clean cut victory over the Beareats by a seore of 18 to 9. In a game with the two Tiger teams at the city of Destiny, Stadium won by a score of 48 to 16. The offense of Centralia was slow in functioning. The Tigers stopped the Abes in the most thrillng and closest game of the season by a score of 24 to 22 in a game that was not decided until the last few seconds of play. Olympia took their second win from the Tigers at the Capitol City in a slow game. The Tigers gained revenge for their defeat by the Aberdeen Bobeats, earlier in the season, when they eked out a close win, 21 to 20, in the closing minutes Raymond Rhodes Neitert DeCraene Young Athletics Basketball Moore Greenleaf of play. The Tigers gained the last league game from the Hoquiam Grizzlies by forfeiture. Although the Tigers were able to finish only in a tie for fourth place in the league standings, with five wins and seven losses, however, they took all their non-conference battles and ended the season with eleven wins and seven losses. Next years chances for a title contender are very bright, with six letter- men returning: Bill Robinson, Everett Young, Johnnie Clark, Phil Raymond, Dayton Nietert, and Alvin Rhodes. Two year lettermen who have played their last for their Alma Mater are Woody Ullin, and Ray Ware; and the one stripe winners who will not be . back ere Peachy Greenleaf and Dusty Moore. .

Hall, sponsored the first annual Centralia Relays which was a huge success. Thirteen schools from all over Southwest Washington were entered. Although Vancouver won the meet and Centralia finished several places down the list of con- testants, it was a great success as far as all concerned in Centralia and in the region it furnished a good series of races. The Tigers entered the Vancouver Relays and in competition with the Portland Schools, and all the large Oregon and Southern Washington schools, placed one first and one second out of ten events. At the time this goes to press on the eve of the dual meet with Aberdeen the remainder of the schedule is: Centralia and Aberdeen here April 25. Western Washington Relay Seattle May 2. District Meet here May 9. Southwest Washington meet Olympia May 16. State Meet at Pullman May 23. Tacoma Relay at Tacoma May 30. Coach Hall has created a good deal of interest in relay racing here due to the fact that he turned out a Championship Team which he sent to the State Meet last year. Coach Hall learned his scientific method at track which he is now teaching Centralia athletes from Carl Schleoderman at W. S.-C On the whole this years’ track season has proven a real suecess. The sue- cess of a season is not measured by win and losses, but by progress made to- wards a better group of athletes and this progress has been made _ this year.

There are only five lettermen back this year and the rest of the squad is made up of last years Lewis County men. The names and positions of the players on the squad are as follows: Vogel, Robinson, catcher; Ware, C. Friend, B. Friend, Drew, pitchers; Olmstead, Woods, ist base: Gerwig, 2nd base; Roulst 3rd base; Naismith, Waters, S. S:; Corcoran, Sholar, Monoghan, Wilcoxson, Sayce, Hawley, Martin and Clark are the outfielders, and utility men. : There are four other teams in the league besides Centralia, Kelso Olympia, Shelton, and Chehalis. By winning the cup this year, it would become the permanent property of the Tigers. Kelso is the strongest of these, having won their first three games by large scores. If the Tigers win their remaining games, C. H. 8S. will be tied with Kelso, and a play off series would be necessary to determine the league champions. : The team is coached by Archie Buckley, who was a baseball star at W. : S. C., and he is doing a very good job at it. At the time this story goes to press, the Tigers have won one game and lost one, but have a very good chance of copping the remaining games. They lost to the Kelso Highclimbers 4 to 1 and defeated Chehalis 9 to 1. in the only other game which was a non-conference fray, they were defeated by Rochester 10 to .

They didn’t know much about the fundamentals of the game but made up for this defect in fight and courage. The team was successful in winning two games, tieing three and losing one. Although the season wasn’t very successful, however, they turned out some good material for next year’s Tiger Team. The Kittens helped condition the first team for their games by scrimmag- ing with them and absorbed the hard knocks with pleasure in order that they might help the Tigers. The players were: Jack Baker, Bill Baker, Lee Burrows, Clinton Clark, John Corcoran, Billy Elmendorf, Dick Fisher, Irvin Greenleaf, Henry Iekes, Isa- dore Laughlin, Marcellus Laughlin, Fred Martin, D.

Page Fifty OLF was introduced to Centralia athletes as a minor sport this year and, although it was not a winning success, it was a success as far as interest created was concerned. The Tiger team was composed of but one veteran golfer, Howard Grimm; the remainder of the team played their first competitive matches this year. Many of the squad will be back next year, and as a start has been made, in a year or two they should have a good golf team to send out. This is the first year there has been a golf league in Southwest Washington. The league is composed of Olympia, Hoquiam, Stadium, Lineoln, Aberdeen and Centralia. The teams were composed of six men each and the season consisted of home and home matches with each school. It is quite probable that golf will be made a major sport next year, due to it’s popularity this year. Probable letter winners are Grimm, Noel, Borehart, Bamford, Burdette, McBride, Sweeney and Berlin. Wennis ENNIS, with it’s evergrowing popularity, is fast becoming one of the more important sports in Centralia High School. Coach Arthur Ehret has done much this year in turning out a team which has given Centralia a lot of credit. A Southwest Washington Tennis league was formed this year with Shelton, Olympia, Aberdeen, Chehalis, Stadium and Centralia as members. Each team played a home a.i1d home schedule. The results of the first 6 matches were: Centralia lost to Aberdeen when the harbor team won two boys singles, while the local boys doubles, composed of Packard and Howland, won a match. Olympia split a tournament here when both boys teams lost while Clark ‘won the Girls singles and Gillespie and Hansen won the girls doubles. The Tigers journeyed to Tacoma with an all boys team and lost all matches. The Tigers also dropped a tournament at Shelton when the High Climbers won all matches, but the girls doubles when Gillespie and Hansen won their match (6-3) (6-2). Centralia took on Chehalis here and won both doubles sets, Wortman and Howland won the boys doubles (6-3) (6-2) and the girls doubles was won by Gillespie and Hansen (6-0) (6-0). The Tigers also won on the Chehalis courts when they won all the matches but the boys singles. Clark won the girls singles (6-4) (6-1), Gillespie and Hansen won the girls doubles (6-0) (6-0) and Howland and Wortman won the boys doubles (6-4) (6-3). Page Fifty-one Girls ”ANTAlete Neocon HE GIRLS’ ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION of 1931 was ably headed by Marceil Mycrs. The association had a successful year as all the sports fostered by the club were of interest to the girls in the high sehool. The main idea of the club is to inspire all girls of C. H. S. to have an in- terest in sports. All sports are given the support of the elub. Awards are offered each year by the organization to those girls earning them. Freshman are given numerals , Sophomores, letters, Juniors, pillow tops, and Seniors, pins. No pins were given last year, but three girls have earned the right to wear them this season. During the fall and early winter, hiking and camp breakfasts were spon- sored by the elub, under the leadership of Miss Guyer. Tennis, and outdoor baseball filled the sport schedule in the spring. Participation in the University of Washington Playday was one of the mein projects of the club during the year. Eleven girls were chosen to rep- resent C. H. S. in the meet, in the general Posture Parade. Ivera Nelson won the coveted honor of first place in the entire group. Her posture was ad- judged the most perfect of all the school representation. The meeting in Seattle was preceded by a week of posture publicity within the school. The year has been an unusually successful one in the Girls’ Athletie Association.

All Star Tea ms IRLS’ ATHLETICS ineluded four sports this year, three major and minor, hockey, soccer, baseketball and baseball. Soccer was a minor sport having teams selected by two captains, Clarabell Dodd and Maxine MeNeely. The season ended in a tie. In Hockey, the first sport, the Freshmen proved to be the champions. After the season, a banquet was held for all members of the teams and each class had a faculty member as a guest. The all star team was chosen by the managers of the classes: Helen Conrad, Freshman; Elizabeth Thompson, Soph- omore; Elsie Rice, Junior and Senior, and the manager of the all star team themselves. The team consisted of Marceil Myers, Leona Howland, Doris Taylor, Rosie Howland, Margaret Logsdon, Frances Gillespie, Marjorie Barrett, Nelda Lipf, Dora May Conrad, Marie Langraf, Clarabell Dodd, and Helen Conrad, manager. In Basketball, the Seniors were champions, with five victories to their eredit. The majority of the games were played after school, although some were run off in the morning. This season likewise ended with a banquet an- nouncing the all star team and manager. The four class managers who were chosen on the all star team were: Helen Conrad, Frosh; Eileen Deskins, Soph.; Dora May Conrad, Jr. and Agnes McDougall, Sr. The All-Stars consisted of Eugenia Davis and Mareceil Myers, forwards; Helen MeGuire, and Thelma Clark, guards; Rosie Howland, side center; and Ruth Galbraith, jumping center.

Page Fifty-eight Stage Crew Stage (Crew ERHAPS one of the most unknown and hence, unappreciated groups in high school, is the Stage Crew, which has as its members Charles Dickey, Lloyd Moore, Robert Sapp, Francis Saunders and Lorrin Myers. They have served faithfully throughout the school year, making scenery, raising and lowering the curtain for every entertainment, and in every way helping C. H. S. put on the successful entertainments. To the crew, Centralia students owe a vote of thanks, and especially to those who are graduating this year, they wish every success in future enterprises. NAGI E NOTHER service club of the high school is the “Knight of Maul”, familiarly known as “K. O. M.” Re-organizing this year, under the leadership of Mr. Campbell, they had as officers: Donald Naismith, president; Ray Hughes, vice president; and Dick Rock- well, secretary. Their work during the year was a compliment to the Yell Kings, and their uniforms were also Orange and Black. Leading of serpentines, and patrolling of the football fields during games was their main duty. They gave a Pep assembly during the football season, which was very well received. Vell Kings ITH YELL KINGS like “Peachy” Greenleaf and Dick Rockwell, his assistant, to lead Pep in the way it should go, this school experienced one of the best years it has known. Dressed in their Orange and Black suits, they em- bodied the very spirit of C. H. S. During the numerous rallys and entertain- ments, they were always ready to do their utmost in helping prepare the programs, promote good feeling, and of course to see that students had their full quota of Pep. The school owes much to “Peachy” and Dick for their good work during 1930 and 1931.
