BOARD OF DIRECTORS The present board of directors of the Davenport Consolidated Schools have con- tributed much of their time and energy to the educational system of this community, especially during the war when conditions were very difficult and times very trying. A building fund of Sl85,000 will be reached by July l. From this fund it is planned to construct a badly needed grade school and gymnasium and to remodel the present gymnasium and auditorium. Other proiects completed during their term of office include construction of the Smith Hughes building and the asphalting of the tennis courts. These are iust a few of the tasks and steps of progress which have been completed under the supervision of the present board of directors. Making up the board are Charles Linstrum and Albert Zellmer, who were elected in l939, and A. E. Montague, Leslie Slater and Phil Haislip who took office in l94i, l943, and l944, respectively, Mr. Haislip is the chairman. . The directors at present have Henry Robinson for their clerkp he has served in that capacity for seven years. - ' I ALMA MATER Our Janitor J. B. DARLING Our Superintendent Mr. D. W. Buchanan has been superintendent of the Davenport Schools six years. Because of the war these were unusual and difficult years, and we fully realize that not iust any man could run a school as efficiently as he has during this time. Since Mr. Buchanan has been superintendent here, the agriculture shop has been built, and the tennis courts hard surfaced. He has helped to make plans for a new grade school on which construction will start in the near future. Plans have also been made to put lighting facilities on the football field and tennis courts. We, the class of 1947, thank you, our superintendent and class advisor, for seeing us through high school and for your patient help as a friend and counselor. We will miss having you and your family in our city next year but hope that you will be very happy in your new home. XX wjxx J .X l, N sl i mic! - Y Q. J. LEFEVRE S N NJ B. S.

S. to start on their journey in search of the Sunrise of Tomorrow , The members of this group were Bill Johnson, Dolores Zellmer, Dorothy Olsen, Ermit Holderby, Richard Zellmer, Patricia Janett, Keith Morgan, Lawrence Flood, Marjorie Pierce, Ilene McCaffery, Joyce Willis, Raymond Riddle, Jack Ross, Warren Weston, Jane Wright, Marjorie Anderson, Donna Harris, Alice Logsdon, Betty Badgley, Agnes Brodin, Dolores Dietrich, Gladys Furgeson, Audrey Edwards, Marjorie Hume, and Hazel Logsdon, The group chose the following for their leaders: president, ,lack Ross, vice president, Dorothy Olsen, secretary-treasurer, Marjorie Hume, and representative to Student Council, Bill Johnson. Mr. Thomasson acted as our class advisor. On our journey we all joined the Girls' Federation or Boys' Federation. Several joined the Glee Club, Band, and Kappa Etta Club. Freshman Day everyone appeared dressed in everything from nightgowns to gunny sacks. To start the day right, we gave a program before the assembly and later entertained the Aussies , The day came to a happy close with a dance that night. Donna Harris, Gladys Furgeson, and Marjorie Hume were characters in the all high play, Growing Pains . A hilarious time was had by all at the April dance sponsored by the hitch-hikers. As we were hiking along, Lawrence Flood's father offered to pick us up and take us to the river for a day of picnicking, and with that we closed our first year's journey. After a very refreshing summer, twenty-five hitch-hikers assembled at the cross- roads of education to begin another year's journey. ln taking roll call we found that Marjorie Hume and Alice Logsdon had taken another road and we had two replace- ments-Lyle Boleneus and Pat Fisher. The new leaders chosen were president, Ermit Holderby, vice president, Keith Morgan, secretary-treasurer, Gladys Furgeson, and representative to Student Council, Raymond Riddle. Our advisor this year was Miss Greiner, Several members were taken into the A'Kappa Klub and several others joined the Home Economic Club. Some of the boys became members of the Letter D Club. Six of- our group became members, also, of the cast of Days Without Daddy , which was the all high play. Our class started the bond drive with great enthusiasm, but we lost to the upper classmen and, with the freshmen, gave a dance to celebrate their victory. - Miss Greiner, our leader, was too weary to continue the journey with us, so Miss Hawkes took over for her. We donned our green costumes and went to the St. Patrick's Day Dance which we sponsored. One of the members of the Sophomore Class, Lyle Boleneus, left to serve his country in the Navy. They say that a man always returns to- the scene ot his crime, likewise, we returned to the river for our annual picnic, this time with the aid of Mr. Buchanan and Sheriff McCaffery. Weary from our proceeding journeys we disbanded and took a three months' rest. After that much needed rest, we assembled for the third time at the cross-roads, HISTORY lContinued1 We were assisted by several new hitch-hikers who were Barney Reagan, Bob Luiten, Miles Johnson, Bernadette Lefevre, Alice Logsdon, Audrey Edwards, and Eleanor King. We elected the following officers: president, Gladys Furgeson, vice president, Keith Morgan, scretary-treasurer, Dorothy Olsen, representative to Student Council, Marjorie Anderson. Our advisor was Miss Russell. The returns of our pop and hot dog sales were immediately placed in our treasury and increased our funds greatly. We took our knap socks from our backs and sold them at our annual basket social. Because of the shortage of wool, our gray and maroon class sweaters arrived CI year late. However, feeling rich, we ordered and received our class rings. We are now proudly wearing both. Two of our members had success in getting into the all high play, The Blue Bag . A Little Honey , a comedy in three acts, was presented February 20 to a packed house. The cake and the baby stole the show, much to the surprise of everyone. Finding need for more money, we sponsored a movie called You Came Along , which was a step further to our Junior-Senior Prom. On the 27 of April we went cross-country to the Hawaiian Nights and arrived at a wonderful banquet and a beautifully decorated dance hall. That was our 1946 Junior- Senior Prom. In May we established the tradition of having the iuniors decorate for baccalaureate. With this kind deed we concluded our third year's iourney. We assembled for the fourth and last time at the cross-roads to complete our iourney to the Sunrise of Tomorrow . After choosing as president, Keith Morgan, vice president, Gladys Furgeson, secretary-treasurer, Dorothy Olsen, representative to Student Council, Bill Johnson, and advisor, Mr, Buchanan, we rushed the season with the order- ing of our announcements and cards, We started the line going by giving the Armistice Day play, Let Me Come Back . Dolores Zellmer, Dorothy Olsen, and Keith Morgan ioined the cast of the all high play, Don't Take My Penny . A 'very enioyable play was presented by us on April 24. The name of it was Heaven Can Wait . Plans are made for baccalaureate and commencement. We have journeyed far in search of the Sunrise of Tomorrow . By- Dorothy Olsen Patricia Janett Ilene McCaffery LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF '47 We, the members of the Senior Class of 1947, of the City of Davenport, County of Lincoln, State of Washington, being of sound mind and memory, do make, publish and declare this our Last Will and Testament. And furthermore we nominate and appoint Superintendent D. W. Buchanan of the City of Davenport, State of Washington, executor of our Last Will and Testament. ARTICLE I: We give and bequeath to our beloved faculty the ability to detect the misde- meanors of the Class of i948, and do request that the above be duly apprehended. To our beloved iuniors we bequeath our seats in the auditorium ancl our upper class authority. Then to the sophomores we leave our skill and knowledge, To the freshmen we give our courage and stamina. ARTICLE II: The following may seem to be but small bequests, but we hope they may be accepted, not as worthless things thrown away because we can no longer use them, but as valuable assets to those who may receive them and as a constant reminder of the illustrious and never-to-be-forgotten Class of I947. Marjorie Anderson wills Barney Reagan to anyone who will have him. Betty Badgley wills her tall boy friend to Janet Olson, Dolores Dietrich bequeaths her shyness to Alice Page. Gladys Furgeson leaves her ability to get along with Mrs. Lightner to Mickey Willis. Donna Harris leaves her ability to skip school to Jim Chase, although it's doubtful that he needs it. Ermit Holderby leaves behind his saying Oh gosh, yes, to Miss Rees. We doubt, however, that she could find room for it in her vocabulary. Patricia Janett wills her quick temper to Pat Hering. He needs to fly off the handle once in a while. Bill Johnson bequeaths some of his build to Johnny Fleisher. He could stand some. Miles Johnson leaves his mustache to Russell Pankey who has a hard time growing one. Eleanor King bestows upon Dale Olson her shortness. Bernadette Lefevre leaves her English ability to Bob Buchanan-just in case! Hazel Logsdon wills her long blond hair to Tex Therrell-'nuff said. Ilene McCaffery leaves her ability to keep kids out of trouble to Q. J. Lefevre who might try the idea. Keith Morgan bestows upon Ronnie Webber his way with the girls. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF '47 lContinuedj Dorothy Olsen leaves her red hair to Betty McKerlie. Jeanne Overdorf wills Chuck Weiland to Marianne Oertel. He really is a swell kid. Marjorie Pierce wills her ten gallon hat and cowboy boots to Babe Conrad. Joyce Willis leaves her strapless evening gown to Marie Brodin. Dolores Zellmer wills her editorial skill to anyone who has nerve enough to use it. Richard Zellmer bestows upon .lim Badgley his ability to write poems. Donna Tess wills some of her quietness to Warren Smith, who should try some of it. Barney Reagan wills his cackling laugh to anyone who can lay an egg. Warren Weston leaves his shiny new Buick to Harold Jahns to court his best girl- or any girl. This is to certify that the foregoing instrument was, on this twenty-seventh day of May, l947, signed by the Senior Class in our presence, and was by us declared to be our Last Will and Testament, whereupon, we, at our request and in our presence and in the presence of each other, did sign our names hereto as attesting witnesses to said Last Will and Testament, that the Senior Class was of sound mind and was not acting under duress, fraud, menace or undo influence. Raymond Riddle Jack Ross Robert Luiten PROPHECY Being weary from hiking on our way home from a gay class picnic in the last hitch of our high school career, the three of us managed to drop behind the rest of the group. We soon found a good shade tree, fell asleep, and began dreaming. After a while we all awoke with a start, blinked our eyes and tore our hair, for we had all dreamed of our classmates, not as they are but, as it seemed, the way they might be ten years from now. Was this the way supernatural powers chose to forecast the future to us? Feeling it our duty to pass on these mysterious secrets of the future, we are making this attempt to do so. Listen, O ye men and women, youths and maidens, and little children! Listen, all ye people of Davenport, to the words of wisdom from the lips of your prophets who now speak unto you what hath been revealed unto us, even as it hath been decreed by the powers that be! ln i957 we see Ray Riddle reaching his life long ambition of being admitted to the bar. Ilene McCaffery is following in her father's footsteps and was elected sheriff of Lincoln County. PROPHECY lContinuedj Gladys Furgeson, our manhater, has recently married our womanhater, Warren Weston. The latest and greatest matinee idol of all times is none other than our former classmate, Ermit Holderby, Patty Janett, after five years of experimenting, has found a way to reduce her heighth about four inches, so she is now the right height for Jack. Hazel Logsdon is now slinging hash to the little Woltrums instead of the patrons of Lennon's Cafe. Jeanne Overdorf has not yet reached her destiny, which is to marry a handsome duke or millionaire. Jack Ross attained his highest goal in life when he was appointed president of WSC. We see by the sport light that Mike Johnson, our former football star, was named all-American fullback. The former Miss Marjorie Anderson has been given the title of America's Most Modern Mother. We see by the morning paper that Donna Tess is running for president of the United States. The age requirement in the constitution has been amended to make her eligible. So far Dorothy Olsen has kept her promise of never getting married, for today she was elected president of the Old Maid's Club. Donna Harris, the singer of our class, is now playing guitar duets and singing with Rocky Starr. The great scientist, Captain Marvel Robert Luiten, has started on his fifth expedition to try to get to the moon. His new rocket ship is named Renie No. 5 . Keith Morgan, who farms most ot Lincoln County, was last reported moving south into the Ritzville country. Richard Zellmer, former high school track star, now holds the world's record for running the mile, Betty Badgley is soon to realize her ambition of going over Niagra Falls in a barrel. Dolores Dietrich has taken up chicken raising. Here's hoping she doesn't burn down any more chicken houses, Bernadette' Lefevre is completing her work in trying to square a circle and trisect an angle. Eleanor King is head of the drum section of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Mondovi, We see Joyce Willis as cigarette girl in Kelly's Tavern in Davenport. Last, but not least, Dolores Zellmer was last seen carrying a piece of chalk and writing on the sidewalk l wish Kilroy was here ! Mariorie Pierce Bill Johnson Barney Reagan 17 LW 1 .

With his loving bottle, Mike couldn't part, To leave it behind would break his heart. Sharky Ross, with his dreamy dark eyes, ls thinking ot Jean 'neath the tropical skies.

Our Donna Tess, is shy and sweet, The music and moon make her night complete. Patty Janett, with her grass skirt swaying, And stars in her eyes, ot Jackie is dreaming. Walking along on the silvery sand, Go Betty and Grant, strolling hand in hand. Hermit Ermit , steady and calm, ls hunting coconuts 'neath a swaying palm. With the music, the moon, girls and sand, Jungle Bill Johnson will get along fine. Barney Doc Reagan, better known as The Brain Over this island would like to reign. And I' Donna Harris, guided by the moon's light, Will remember forever this sweet Hawaiian night. CLASS SONG lTo We the class of torty-seven To our school bid goodbye. Our school dreams have been happy ones Extending to the sky, We all look forward to the sunrise To the world that always lies above And as we leave our Alma Mater We think ot the laughter and the love We've had here.

It was double cast. This was the first time a play had been double cast here. Third and biggest event of this year was the iunior-senior prom named Dream- land. lt was brought about by the selling of pop and hot dogs during the football and basketball seasons. - A successful year closed with a picnic.

Our officers are: president, John Fleisher, vice president, Rita Furgeson, secretary- treasurer, Marilee Maclin, representative, Virgil Johnson, advisor, Tex Therrell, We showed our school spirit by taking first in the annual pep rally with our theme Condemned to Defeat . At the bon-fire we won class competition for loudest yelling. Early in February the forty-niners received their green and white sweaters. Our class put on an entertaining assembly for the high school based on the Gay Nineties Period. The dainty, gorgeous dancing girls held our audience in awe.

L t DEBATE Davenport High started debate again after an absence from the scene for many years. There were eight debaters, all of whom were very green at the beginning of the O th ad were Dave Johnson, Donna year but at the end were classed as veterans. n e squ Harris, Verle Spilker, Pat Janett, and Barney Reagan, negative, and Alice Page, Velma Conrad and Ted Zier, affirmative. The national debate question for this year, Resolved: That the Federal Govern- ment should provide a system of complete medical care available to all citizens at public expense, seemed to all to be a quite difficult subiect because of its wide scope of thought. The debates were in two completely different forms. The first half was the problem solving type with each member giving a problem solving solution, the second half was devoted to the regular cross question type of debate. The D,H.S, team had eight scheduled debates, four at home and four away. North Central, West Valley, Marycliff, and Lewis and Clark were away, and Central Valley, Lewis and Clark, West Valley, and Gonzaga debates were here. Davenport didn't do very well in the scoring but individual debaters were all out- standing at different times. Donna Harris, Pat Janett, and Barney Reagan are seniors so they won't be here next year. Miss Rees, the debate coach, is to be commended on her fine iob of shaping the debate team.

Uhey don't know how much she needs a publicity breaklj He has written his regular date, Helen, that he is sick and won't be able to go to the dance.

Davenport defeated Reardon in the first quarter, Wilbur, Odessa in the second, Odessa, Reardon in the third, and Wilbur edged out Davenport by a long-run touchdown in the final period. Traveling to Lind for the opening of the bi-county slate Davenport, bewildered by the surprising strength of the Bulldogs, failed to stop the five touchdown march of the opposition. The Gorillos' only tally came in the final minutes of play when D.H.S. capitalized on a recovered fumble in Lind territory, after a few plays Hank Nicholls smashed over. The gun went off with the score, Lind 33-Davenport 6. On a bright September day Davenport had her first real taste of victory by easily rolling over Harrington i2 to O. The Big Red line completely stopped Harrington's offense, The mere two touchdowns did not do iustice to the superiority of the Gorilla team. FOOTBALL lContinued1 i The second trip to Adams County met with disaster iust as did the first, although this time Davenport players were fighting and winning in spirit, but in vain. In the first half Davenport completely dominated the play and drove to inches of paydirt but was held. The second half Ritzville, with breaks, managed to squeeze through two touchdowns on the rain-soaked field to win the heart-breaker, I4-O. s Until five minutes before the final gun, it looked as though history would repeat the previous disaster at Colville in the only night game for the Gorillas. With a safety, resulting from a bad pass from center earlier in the game, Colville's lead grew greater in size as every precious moment of play passed until D.l-l.S.'s great fullback, Roaring Rip Riddle, with his ten teammates doing everything in their power to open his way, smashed the length of the field to score. Ron Webber split the uprights with his dropkick. A few plays later Riddle scored again for the Big Red Team to make the final score i3 to 2. A very confident and cocky Odessa team was easy prey for Therrell's Big Red Team, as everybody from fullbacks and quarterbacks to ends and tackles made the scoring column. With the hard charging Gorillas' line blocking an Odessa kick in the end zone for safety, the scoring spree iust got a start. Riddle, showing his swival ability, danced some sixty yards through the Orange and Black's territory for a score, and Ron Webber converted the point. Then quarterback Mike Johnson plowed over for the second, and Riddle flipped a pass to end, Bill Fisher, who galloped the remaining distance to the goal. Finally, Dick Zellmer, a tackle, recovered a free ball in the Odessa end zone for the fourth score, leaving the total sum up to Davenport, 27-O, An outclassed Reardan team scared Davenport by holding them to a O deadlock until in the final quarter when Ron Webber came through with a touchdown and -conversion to win the close game and near upset, 7 to O. lt seemed as though Wilbur's desire for victory was greater than Davenport's in the final clash, as they marched to a 32 to 6 victory. Fisher caught a pass for Davenport's only tally, which was in the second period. The outstanding play was a Wilbur runback of the kick-off after Davenport's only tally. i946 Bi-County Football: Win Loss Ties Percent Lind ,,,,,, ,,,,, 6 O O i .OOO Ritzville ....... ..,.. 4 I l .800 Wilbur ,,.,, ..... 3 I 2 .750 Davenport ,,,,,, ,,,,, 3 3 1 O .500 Odessa ..... ...... 2 3 I .400 Reardon ...... .,....

Proving this tact, the Gorillas swept through their opening games with ease and took tirst in a northern division merry-go-round. However, as the season progressed, they failed to stand up to pre-season dope, as they were smashed by Ritzville in the bi-county play and were eliminated in the semi-final round ot the district tournament. The spirit of the team, regardless of luck, was a thing that any high school would be proud of, and carried them to a northern division championship. So we, the students of D.H.S., extend our appreciation and congratulations to Tex Therrell, coach, Captain Jack Ross, Ray Riddle, Keith Morgan and Barney Reagan, seniors, Bob Buchanan, Ron Webber, Bill Fisher, Duane Horwege, and Russell Pankey, iuniors, all of whom are lettermen of the team that so well represented Davenport High Schoolr INDIVIDUAL SCORING Player Points Player Points Buchanan ...., 310 Morgan .,,,.... ,,,..., I 3I Ross ,,,.s,.,, W 2? 3 Fisher .........,. ,,.ss,,s. .... . .......
