H. S. In l937-38 they were called green freshmen but had an unusually exciting year. The officers of the class were as follows: LeRoy Gilbert, president, Arlie Knife, vice president, Virginia Young, secretary-treasurer, and Harvey Cole as class representative. There were five members in the band. Howard Moy was the only boy to make his letter in football. The sophomore class elected LeRoy Gilbert, president, Howard Moy, vice president, Dorothy Hardenbrook, secretary-treasurer, and Harvey Cole as class representative. Again this year, there were five members in the band, and again Howard Moy was the only sophomore to make his letter. The junior class really made people sit up and take notice this year. They started off with a bang by electing Dale Stevens, president, Arlie Knife, vice president, Virginia Young, secretary-treasurer, and Russell Kollar, class representative. There were only four members in the band. LeRoy Gilbert, Arlie Knife, Charles Mclntee, Paul Walker, Howard Moy, Don Landaker, and Norman McCool made letters in football. Bud Trendell and Charles Mc- lntree made letters in basketball. Three big events, and very successful, too, were the junior Play, The Dog Patch lamboree, and the junior-Senior Banquet. The play was a comedy called, Spring Fever. The banquet was dedicated to our athletes of I939. LeRoy Gilbert was elected to head the senior class, and with the able assistance of Russell Kollar, vice president, Donna Dunn, secretary-treasurer, and Sterling Gruenewald as class representative, put over a prosperous year. Everyone had lots of fun dancing on the ferry boat to the strains of The Ferry Boat Serenade at the senior ball. Howard Moy was the Student Body president, Virginia Young, the Student Body secretary, and Marvin Myers, the Student Body treasurer. The class of '4l had an outstanding athletic class with LeRoy Gilbert, Charles Mclntee, Paul Walker, Howard Moy, Don Landaker, Norman McCool, Dale MAY, l 941 Stevens, Bill Pettin- gill, Don Hurlbutt, and Ray Rowland making theirfootball letters and on the All-County team we are proud to say that Don Landaker was pickedforAll-County Center and Howard Moy for All-County Guard. Thereweresix senior boys that received their basketball awards. These were Russell Kollar, Bud Trendell, Charles Mclntee, Dale Stevens, LeRoy Gilbert, and Ralph Duncanson. Charles Mclntee and Bud Trendell were picked for the All-County Basketball Team. Merril Tozier upheld our honor in the high school band, and did an excellent job of it. FLASHl!!l If you missed The Dutch Detective you really missed a hit. This was a farce comedy presented LeROY GILBERT, President in the high school gym on April l8th as the senior class play. Then turned spring and there was May Day. Virginia Young was elected queen. Queen Virginia l. ruled over the May Day Festivals with the able assistance of her lovely court consisting of Pat Holverstott, Rhea Walker, Marvin Myers, Helen Nelson, Donna Dunn, and llean Griffin on May 3rd. Georgia Briner and Donna Dunn were selected to be the class speakers at graduation since their scholastic records were the highest in the class.

Our first class organization supervised by Mr. Cole in our freshman year resulted in the election of Donald Whereat as our President. George Hol- brook presided over our Sophomore Class meetings, and our junior Class President was Duane Terry, with Mr. Bob Nelson as our most efficient class advisor. We have had our hand in Student Body govern- ing, too. The Student Council has had these juniors: Louis Gilbert, vice-president, George Hol- brook, Louis Gilbert and George Hannon, represen- tatives. Chairs have been held in the Girls' League Coun- cil by the following junior girls: Anabel Martin- dale, representative, social service chairman, and President, Phyllis Bunch, vice-president, Dorothy Ritchey, secretary, Ernestine Batty, treasurer, Glenda Clinton, assistant point chairman, Evelyn Gano, entertainment chairman, and Dorothea Yar- brough, Betty Miller, Dorothy Graham, and june Rovang, representatives. Extra! Extral The Hi-Times is out and on the editorial page have always been found the names of a good number of the class of '42. This year those pen-wielders were: Beverly Farrell, assistant editor, Glenda Clinton, exchange editor, Betty Donsted, assistant society editor, Alice Howard, feature writer, and Dorothea Yarbrough, jerry But- ler, Don Littler, and Phyllis Bunch, reporters. jerry Butler and George Folsom have argued for Coquille on the Debate Team.

At the command Strike up that band the junior members of our top-notch band have always added their share of pep. This year those time- marking classmates arei Glenda Clinton and june Rovang, clarinets, jack Newton and Harold Winegar, trombones, George Holbrook, trumpet, Wanda Lu Bell, saxophone, Phyllis Bunch, flute, and George Folsom, boss drum. MAY, l94l On the football field our two-year lettermen are Eu- gene Spud Crouch and Wayne Terry. Those holding one- year awards o r e I Louis Gilbert, and Don Whereat. Spectators at C. H. S. basketball games have watched Eugene Crouch, two- year letterman roll up the points for Coquille High. Success has certainly come our way in the field of entertainment. On November 29, l94O, the juniors, under the direction of Mrs. Hill and Mr. Nelson, presented The Vampire Bat a three-act mystery thriller. Amid a blitzkrieg of Oregon rain, guest after guest entered into a bit of war-time London lordinarily the Coquille High auditoriuml on the night of April 4, l94l. Under dimmed lights and to the strains of orchestral music these guests DUAN E TERRY, President of the juniors danced among sand bags, bomb warnings, and even through a blackout. The junior-Senior Banquet was held on Tuesday, May 6. The traditional myrtlewood cane was pre- sented to the junior president, Duane Terry, by LeRoy Gilbert, the Senior president. We juniors have only one more year in Coquille High. My but it's going to be quiet when we're gone.

In the first game of the year against Bandon, Coquille was the under-dog. The inexperienced Red Devils pulled their power plays and a passing attack for a crushing 27 to 6 Upset Victory. On October 5 the fighting Red Devils outplayed and outfought a heavier Marshfield eleven. Co- quille won the hard fought game I3 to O. In the third game Coquille played the Roseburg Indians and collected scalps to the tune of 50 to O. With three victories under their belts the Red Devils met their jinx, North Bend. As the first quarter ended in Coquille's favor I3 to O the Red Devils gained confidence. Too much confidence, for 26 they came out on the small end ofa I9 to ZO score. After their first defeat Coquille traveled to Ash- land and played the best game of the season. Coquille has yet to be beaten under lights. Co- quille's fighting spirit was too much for them. Score I8 to I3. The last two games, coming only 5 days apart, were against Myrtle Point. Although outgaining Myrtle Point in yards made, the Red Devils took the worst shellacking in years from them. Coming back in the second game Coquille ended the season in glory winning I4 to 6. This victory handed the Championship to North Bend. Coquille placed six men on the All-County team. Wayne Terry, Howard Moy, and Don Landaker on the first team. Charles Mclntee, Eugene Crouch, and Norman McCool on the second team. LeRoy Gilbert and Rolf Holmstrom werehonorable mention.

Coquille had three letter- men for basketball. All second stringers from last year. The remaining players came directly from the B team. Stage fright got them in their first game. ln the second game they proved themselves to be good shots and a fast team by coming through to a 43 to l7 victory over the Bob Cats of Myrtle Point. There was a close race until Bud Trendell, CoquilIe's star center caught Poison Oak. Coquille elected to meet North Bend the first MAY, l94l night of the Tournament and lost 43 to Zl.
