To Peary, Byrd, and Amundsen those men who have conquered the land of north- ern lights and merciless cold, we give our deepest admiration We can only marvel at the Spirit of Adventure which is incarnate in the lives of these men. We can only give them a part of that praise and glory which they so much deserve. We, who leave this school to face the world and assume its responsibilities, but hope that our lives may reflect a part of that indomitable courage and initiative; that our lives may be an inspiration in service, as are the lives of the men to whom we dedicate this book in the Spirit of Exploration.

They were divided into two classes, Mr. Jacobson having Freshmen I and the football coach, Mr. Bieber, having the upstairs class, Frosh II. Quite a number turned out for football and basketball, and there developed some good material for track and tennis too. The last part of the term, the downstairs class held an assembly giving “Back to Your Knitting,” a one-act play, which was well received. twelve aphnmart' Class President ..........:............................

Of our number, two were on the first team of basketball, four on the first team of football, and fifty per cent of the Torch Society was made up of Sophomores. Four Sophs were in the county semi-finals for declamatory and one represented Edmonds in the county finals. We entered into the social life of the school by giving our first party. Within the two English classes two clubs were formed. The “Broadcasters with their president, Lila Wieder, and the “Live Wires” under the leadership of Marian Duff, gave monthly pro- grams for their own benefit. None other than Mrs. Bliss aided us in our trials and tribulations. thirteen Ijmmu (Class FIRST SEMESTER SECOND SEMESTER Helen Conklin ...................President .............

Uiv der Mr. Rinehart’s wing, we lost all of our silly ideas and became sober High School students. In addition to many other activities, we won the county declamatory contest. As Sophomores, a few less in number, we gave our party. We also had five members in the Torch Society. Mr. R. F. Johnson helped us over the stepping stones of this period. As Juniors, we feel somewhat greater, although we are only thirty-five in number. We have six members in the Torch Society and are repre' sen ted in every activity. An outstanding feature and one of which we are proud is the fact that one student from Edmonds, who was placed on the county football squad, was a Junior, Johnny Hovde. We deeply regretted the loss of our advisor, Mr. Johnson, who re- signed due to illness. However, we started our second semester with a bang under the supervision of Mr. Hatch. We chose as our Class play, “The Bashful Mr. Bobbs” a comedy in three acts. fourteen PeiUration to 4Hr. ihmi We dedicate this page to Mr. Milam, our principal, who, com- ing to us a stranger, has through- out the year helped us to set and maintain a purer ideal and higher goal. fifteen • � « HARRY ANDERSON If silence is golden, he'll die a millionaire.

Treasurer ............ Lawrence Hubbard In the year of our Lord, 1925, in a quaint little village by the sea, Edmonds-on-the-Sound, there entered in the equally quaint little red brick high school of the town, sixty-five admittedly “green” and also admittedly “fresh freshmen, under the guidance of Mr. Keith A. Lyman. Mr. Lyman guided and the Class followed until at length in June, of the next year, the class, with a few additions and various subtractions, ar- rived at the stage of prospective Sophomores. Here the routine was sus- pended for a little, while the class spent three horribly long summer months anxiously awaiting school so that they might get back to their books. Having arrived at this stage of “Sophistocated” Sophomores, the Class, now under the guidance of Miss June Beebe, began to make a name for itself as a whole and as individuals. It has a few new and a few old addi- tions in the form of a few “should-be” Juniors and actually new acquaint- ances from other vicinities. It has also, as matter of course and fate, lost some of its members. Fall of 1926 and spring of 1927 passed with rapidity until the class suddenly found itself viewing the possibilities of being Juniors. This fact was faced with genuine alarm but being a very, very studious, and very conscientious class, it faced this problem with true nohdity of spirit and finally came to the realization that it is better to be a Junior than nothing at all. So after summer had rolled around and away, they came back to their punishment, meeting it with such good will that their conduct is really an object lesson showing that even under the most trying of situations, good results can be obtained if there is good material to get them with. Still with Miss Beebe to help it on its way, the Class safely and creditably passed the stormy waters of being a Junior and after three years of patient waiting it at least reached the stage of being THE SENIOR CLASS. The class had now simmered down to some thirty-six members. Mrs. Marjorie Mur- phy was holding the position of being class advisor. Having spent three years in getting a good start, and going slow so as to be able to be there first in the finish, Class now came forward and broke the tapeline two lengths ahead of the other contestants. (Of course, you understand that this is speaking less literally than metaphorically.) The Class Play, Party, Annual (as you can see for yourself), were done in twenty brilliant style. It had far more members on the Honor Roll than is customary. In fact, all in all, in looking over the past four years, the members of the Senior Class of 1929 may have a free, and perhaps even a proud feel' ing, regarding the way they have acquitted themselves in spending four years at Edmonds High: and can, happily, to have done their best, yet re' gretfully, to be through, say good'bye to Edmonds High School. Jentor (Class :}3iunrt The four swift years of High have gone! Four years—so quickly passed! We’ve journeyed heedlessly along. And now we’re through too fast. In Algebra and in Chemistry, We’ve tried to do our best; Though may have been a mystery, We have never lost our zest. On the honor roll we’ve placed most high, We’ve all been leaders true: A - work we’ve never learned to sigh. Though our tasks have not been few. In Athletics, Wireless, and in Glee, We’ve always done our share; In the Torch, our names in mass you'll see. We’ve tried to do work fair. To the Juniors, Sophs, and Freshies, too, We leave our high estate; Wf wish them luck in all they do—- May gladness be their fate. To Mrs. Murphy, our Guiding Star, We wish best luck and wealth; To our teachers, who have led us far. We wish best joy and health. And now wc pledge allegiance true, Edmonds High School on the Sound; W ’ll remember you in whate’er we do— THE BEST SCHOOL EVER FOUND! twenty-one Ullui’s litfhc Most Cheerful Girl .........................

Ed...Lawrence Hubbard Art Editor ............... Alice Markley Sales Mgr..... Aileen Conner Faculty Advisor ............ Miss Jones The theme of this edition of the Echo is taken from the Northlands; the Eskimo, the freezing cold, and the northern lights predominating, to cany out the idea of the Spirit of Exploration. The Annual Staff carried on a vigorous advertising campaign and sold two hunderd annuals during the spring. Advertising space was also sold to various Edmonds firms. An Annual drive was held and the different rooms contested against one another to see which could report the largest number of sales. The seniors came first with one hundred per cent. The lower floor freshmen were the losers by a narrow margin and to pay for this they gave an assembly program. The staff edited one number of the Wireless, taking the paper entirely out of the hands of the Wireless staff for that week. On the night of April 17, the Annual staff took over the management of the Princess Theatre. Besides the regular show, a half hour program was furnished by the students. One-half of the proceeds from this was turned over to the staff. The first Echo was published four years ago by the Class of ’26, and was in the form of a scrapbook. Since then the Annual has been in book form as it is now. twentysix (Che Rational Oratorical (Contest The National Oratorical Contest on the Constitution was conducted by the Seattle Daily Times in this district The first contest eliminations were made on March twentieth. The following gave their original orations and the first five took part in the school finals: Anna Telfer, Helen Prim gle, Lawrence Hubbard, Mary Alice Drake, Beatrice Watkins, Florence Davis, Olga Eckren, and Louise Green. On March twenty-second the school finals were held before an assem- bly, in which Anna Telfer took first place. Anna further represented our school in winning the county contest in Everett on April fifth. On April twelfth she took part in the state semi- finals at Mount Vernon and was awarded first place. She represented the district in the state finals held at Broadway high school on April twenty- sixth. (the jRcUt (Cantcat The Post Intelligencer sponsored a new type of contest in this district —The Flag Contest. A large number of Edmonds students became inter- ested and entered. Seventy-five questions were asked on the flag. In addi- tion to submitting the answers the students wrote a five minute essay on the flag. The contest was divided into two divisions, namely, for the girls and boys. Due to the large number of students entering, judges eliminated by manuscript. As a result of the elimination six girls and five boys delivered their orations on May 1, before the assembly. Those who spoke were: Erna Johnson, Nancy Mason, Margaret Scanlon, Beatrice Watkins, Clara Pennock, Nancy Podas, Robert Davenny, Arthur Pennock, William Ham- ilton, Herman Rendler, and Donald Hareid. Nancy Mason was awarded first place for the girls and Herman Rend- ler first place for the boys. twenty'seven Good Time •i it Mixer Utttot P, sAcclai -v yone I i La wljjjf' I Kcv rife rotgtTc aken froo.

H. S., was first established in the fall of 1909, while W. H. Dorgan was principal. It was typewritten, and read each Friday by the editor-in-chief at the Friday afternoon rhetorical exer- cises. That was while the high school was still in the grade building. Principal Dorgan suggested the name “The Wireless,” because Marconi’s invention was new at the time and it suggested to him pep and enterprise. The first printed issue was published October 23, 1914, and consisted of two double sheets, which, folded together, made'.a paper containing eight pages, each six by ten and one-half inches. Seven years ago' The Wireless assumed its present form, making up the front page of the Edmonds T ribune-Review. Lawrence Hubbard is the editor of the Wireless for the year 1928' 1929 and Thomas Scanlon is business manager. The rest of the staff, which is changed every week, is made up of members of the journalism i class. Mrs. Bliss, faculty advisor, also fills the position of journalism teacher. The Wireless has been edited on a more strictly journalistic basis this year than ever before, due to the study of newspaper writing and mod' ( ern newspapers, carried on by the staff under Mrs. Bliss' supervision. Besides the regular weekly edition of the Wireless, several special edi- tions have been published by various school organizations. The Annual staff took over the paper for one week during the Annual drive for sub- scriptions, and the Torch Society published it several weeks later. The Wireless staff itself has put out several editions for special occasions, such as the Thanksgiving number, the Christmas number, and the April Fool • edition. Every week, two special reporters are appointed, who take their as' signments from Mr. Cloud, editor of the Tribune, and write articles for the Tribune-Review. On April 28, the Wireless staff published the entire Tribune'Review and received many favorable comments on that edition of the paper. The Wireless has been placed near the top of the list of school papers, not only because of its business-like appearance, but also because its size corresponds with that of a sheet from a regular newspaper. This is an ad- vantage to the journalism students because they become familiar with writ- ing articles for a regular newspaper. twenty-nine (Larch j aaeta Elsie Profit! ......................................... President Elizabeth Gerdon .................................. Vice-president Pearl Murie ............................................ Secretary Marian Duff ............................................ Treasurer Mrs. Murphy ..................................... Faculty Advisor In olden times the torch was used as a beacon to stimulate weary travelers. And today we take that symbol to use it for our Torch Society, that it may serve for identically the same purpose. It is always a glowing light to promote scholarship and citizenship for those journeying through high school. The Torch Society is a place where good deeds are done, and not merely dreamed of, or left for some other to fulfill. It is an honor to be- long to this society and everyone strives toward this goal. Not only do the members have an active part in the affairs of the schools, but their society has more privileges than any other society in our school. They have per- mission to give two social functions, the Torch banquet and Senior lunch- eon. In order to become a member of the Torch Society, one must have cer- tain scholarship qualifications. These qualifications are based on points, which are earned through grades and activities. One point is given for a minor activity and two points for a major activity. Points for grades are apportioned to semester marks, according to their value. This year, the Torch Society plans to give an Honor Award, consist- ing of $25 and a pin, to the boy or girl in high school having the highest grade average during the year. thirty IBoarii of (Control First Semester Edwin Lund ......

Faculty Advisor The Girls' club has been active this year, both socially and charitably. A uniform dress consisting of a blue jersey sweater and dark skirt was adopted by the girls. A number of committees were appointed: The executive, welfare, friendship, standards, posters, and entertainment. Due to the efforts of Georgia Miller, manager of the Clubbe Shoppe, and Ne- dra Bacon, the Rest Room manager, these projects of the Girls' Club have been very successful. The charity work consisted of giving baskets of food at Thanksgiving and clothes at Christmas. The girls carried out their social program through Hallowe’en and Valentine parties, Christmas assembly, Mother's Day Tea and mixers. The Big'Sister'and'Little-Sister Plan was adopted during the latter part of the year. A special committee drew up a code exclusively for the Girls' Club of Edmonds High School. thirty'two (Club Mmuon Sswver .................... Howard Dent .....................

The Declamatory work this year was entirely reorganized. Boys and girls were not placed into separate groups, as formerly, hut the work was divided into three separate divisions: Oratorical, Humorous, and Dramatic. Each division was judged individually, with only one place given in each. Mrs. Bliss and Miss Foster coached the students this year and a large number of students turned out. Each entrant was aided in the choice of his selection by an Oral Expression instructor from Seattle. At the semi-finals held at Marysville on November 23, Edmonds was represented in the oratorical division by Howard Dent, in the dramatic by Yvonne Stratton, and in the humorous by Louise Greene. At the finals held at Lake Stevens on December 7, 1928, Yvonne Stratton took the pen' nant for the dramatic division. The value of the fine training gained in declamation work has reached new' proportions in our high school, and it is hoped that many more stU' dents will be interested next year. thirty'four footer� (Club OFFICERS Marion Sawyer ......................................... President Helen Pringle .................................... Vice-president Elizabeth Gerdon ...................................... Secretary Lawrence Hubbard ...................................... Treasurer The Rooters' Club was organized in 1926 with Virginia Friese as the first president. The purpose of this club is to create a deeper feeling of loyalty to Edmonds Hi, and to promote a better attendance at the various high school functions, especially at the basketball and football games. Membership in the Rooters’ Club is not limited as any student may become a member, provided that he has a passing grade in at least three subjects and complies to the rules of the club. The first meeting held during the school year of 1928-29 was on Sep- tember 21. The officers elected held their offices for both semesters. Mr. Raymond Johnson was the advisor of the Rooters’ Club until his illness caused him to resign. Mr. Hatch continued the work and he has carried on successfully the activities of the club for the past year. thirty-five m sS� ! «:! wltti ■pickles The pretty and clever three-act musical comedy Pickles” was given by the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs on March 22 and 3� . On both nights there were appreciative audiences to enjoy the lovely scenery, laugh at the funny lines, and to be charmed by the good music. The interesting plot included a large cast. The story centered around Ilona, a little dancer, who was believed to be the daughter of Jigo, a pictur- esque Gypsy chief, until a vision in the Mystical Pool revealed her as the daughter of Lady Vivian Delaney, a charming widow who came annually to Vienna in search of the daughter who was lost near Vienna when a baby. The part Ilona” was taken by Yvonne Stratton. Marion Sawyer as “Jimmy Jennison Jones,” a young advertising expert for the Peter Piper Pickles, won his audience with his clever humor, and the heart of Ilona with his gay love-making. Elizabeth Gerdon was well cast as the winning June Pennington, daughter of Jonas Pennington, the genial Pickle King. The romantic young artist, Arthur Crefont, who played opposite June, was taken by Willis Drake. Others of the cast were Maie Scott as Lady Vivian, Audrey En- gels, as Pennington, Jesselyn Demmons, Bob Terhune, Harry Tutmark, Harry Bowen, and Spencer Records. There were thrpp large choruses. Pickles was considered most successful, greatly due to the efforts of Miss Carlson and Mrs. Bliss. thirty'seveyi cUu' jifirst of the 3£anh The Senior class was very ambitious this year, in presenting an histori- cal play; something different for E. H. S. The plot was laid in the early part of the nineteenth century and cen- tered around the rivalry of Aaron Burr and James Madison for the hand of America's most celebrated “First Lady,” Dolly Todd. The beauty of the costumes and stage settings brought quite as much pleasure to those of the cast as to their audience. Dolly Todd was charmingly portrayed by Alice Sawyer; Lawrence was well cast as quiet James Madison, while Marion Sawyer played equally well the part of Burr, the lovable villain. Others of the cast were Charles Yost, Harry Anderson, Richard Maneval, Elsie Profitt, Georgia Miller, Alda Williams, Aileen Conner, Yvonne Stratton, and Anna Telfer. The result of Mrs. Murphy’s coaching made our play most successful. thirty-eight (Che plashful JSohhs The Juniors presented “The Bashful Mr. Bobbs, April 19, at the high school auditorium. The hilarious comedy proved very successful. Arthur Pennock took the part of the bashful Mr. Bobbs; Helen Walker played opposite as Jean Graham, a Delaware peach. Other characters were Lucille Farr, Jean's sophisticated and superior sister, with Norman Nelson as her husband. Florence Davis, the movie vamp who succeeded in getting Marston Bobbs, David Joyce. The society bud was portrayed by Mary Alice Drake and the athletic girl by Helen Siegrist. The French maid was Winnifred Perry. Clara Pennock was Mrs. Wiggens, the landlady. Thomas Scanlon, as Obadiah Stump, a country product, furnished most of the comedy element. The play was under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Hatch. thirty-nine forty FIRST TEAM LINE-UP Hovde T C Strom C LE Cleaveland D RG Allen P RH Duppenthaler R. RG W iegand A LT Drake W QB Roe M RT Nelson N LG Kronquist A FB Lund E LH Last year Edmonds did not enter the league in football. This fall, therefore, when Edmonds decided to renew football, the squad was com- posed entirely of new men. Edmonds' position was a peculiar one. Many schools thought they were up against a weak team when matched with Edmonds, but they were badly mistaken. The Edmonds' line was the strongest in the league and the team was defeated by only one touchdown in all the games that were lost. The line held in all the crucial moments and saved the day. Notwithstanding the boys’ inexperience of not having football one year, Johnny Hovde made the Snohomish County All-Star center. Edmonds won four games and lost seven games. Next year’s team ought to either take first or second place in the league because most of the lettermen will he back next year. forty'two Basketball This year Edmonds was placed in League A, where hitherto they had been placed in League B. That meant that our team had to battle against teams much superior to what they had been used to. This year Coach Bieber trained his boys in a new line of defense with game with Everett, the County Champions, our defense was so strong that the result that Edmonds tied for fourth place with Arlington. During the the opposing team found it difficult to break through the lines. As an out' come Everett almost lost the game. Next year Mr. Bieber will have a team to he proud of, as there are several lettermen who will return and some good second string men. The line-up for this year was as follows: FIRST SQUAD SECOND SQUAD Kronquist, A. Senior Hoff. L Lund. E Senior Duppenthaler, R Allen, Z I unior Wiecand. A Junior Allen, P. ..... Sophomore Hoff, M Irby. J. .. . Sophomore Davenny, I). Sophomore Bowen, H Freshman Bacon, G. Freshman Milton, B forty-three This year the boys took a great deal of interest in track. Dr. H. H. Kretzler awarded bronze medals to the high point man in each class and a gold medal to the high point man in the school. George Bacon won the medal in the Freshman class; Audrey Engels, Sophomore class; Norman Nelson, Junior class; and A1 Kronquist was re- recipient of the gold medal, being not only high point man in the school but also high point man in over half of the meets in which Edmonds par- ticipated. (Tennis On account of the abundance of material and keen competition for places the tennis squad has been of rather uncertain and changing person- nel. This is equally true of boys and girls. Promising Freshmen are threatening daily to topple the upper classmen from their positions. Plenty of enthusiasm is being shown for the game, the main difficulty being to find hours to accommodate all who wish to play. Among the Nays, the two Freds, Evensen and Hedges, have been win- ning their share of matches, while double teams, consisting of Siegrist, Irby, Phil Allen, Richard Niese, Marion Sawyer and Lawrence Hubbard, have been giving their competition plenty to do. The girls are more or less untried, except that at Monroe, Alda Wil- liams and Marian Duff won matches at singles, and Alice Sawyer and Elsie Profitt took their match in doubles. Others hardly less proficient are Eve- lyn Fox at singles, Helen Siegrist, Emily Scoon, Anna Telfer, Elizabeth Gerdon, Frances Faurot and Rose Astell at doubles. (Lrark forty-five (Sirie1 Athletice The girls in athletics, under the coaching of Miss Inga Stephens, have made a good showing this year in basketball, volley ball, tennis, baseball, and track. The girls competed with other schools at Sports' Day and some of the girls were placed on the Star Teams of the county. Marian Duff, Helen Conklin, and Anna Telfer were on the star team in basketball. Helen Conklin was on the star team of volley ball.

The Eighth Grade of District No. 15 ranked second in the county in total number of points earned at the grade meet at Mukilteo, May 4. The county awards for Edmonds were: First in girls’ singles in tennis won by Mary Carlson; second, girls' doubles won by Mary Carlson and Ruth Carlson; second, in the fifty and seventy-five yard dash, won by Leona Trager; first in boys’ broad jump, won by Carroll Greenleaf; and second, in mathematics won by Grace Fisk. We owe much appreciation to our teachers and all who have done their share in helping us successfully through our Eighth Grade year. fortymine junior ISiijb basketball The Junior High Basketball teams had an exceptionally fortunate sea' son during 1928'29. The Midgets were not defeated during the entire season, having won twelve games straight. The Giants won the championship of the local league which included Alderwood, Richmond Beach, Ronald, Lake Forest Park and Edmonds. They tied with Snohomish for first place in the Southern District of Sno' homish County and would have won the playoff game in the South Junior high gymnasium in Everett had Snohomish complied with the county ruling regarding boys over 16 years of age. Even with two over age “stars” on the Snohomish team the score was 15 to 19. They came near crowning their season’s work with a defeat of the Juniors, the class champions of Edmonds Senior High, as the first half end- ed in their favor, but the game ended with a score of 8 to 10, in favor of the Juniors. Much of the credit for the team’s success should go to their coach, Mr. C. H. Milam, who so ably directed the boys in their efforts. fifty Ijuniar High £Wlimmtarn Declamatory has been an important activity in the History of Edmonds High School and will continue to be a winner. This is shown by the large number of Seventh and Eighth Grade stu- dents who turned out for Junior High School Declamatory. Under Miss Foster's able coaching thirty-two students worked earnest- ly on their selections, which were divided into three divisions: Oratorical, Humorous, and Dramatic. After three eliminating contests the following were chosen to represent their school: Marvin Harris, oratorical; Jimmie Salter, humorous; and Marie Carpenter, dramatic. The winners of each division will receive a Declamatory letter. Although only three awards were given, each student who participated received valuable experience that will enable him to compete with a better advantage next year. We hope that these students will bring home the pennants in years to come. fifty'one fiftV'two fifty'three IN AN INSURANCE POLICY A Little Better Means a Lot Fire and Auto Insurance is Practical and Essential E.
