To them the Holy Grail was a symbol of enlightenment and wisdom which would enable them to shape their lives toward perfection. Education offers us this same opporf tunity. Thus we see a parallel between the spirit of King Arthur's court and the spirit of Edmonds High School, a parallel between the idealized spirit of Knighthood and the spirit of Democracy. This book is a symbol of this ideal and if, in the years to come, it brings back joyous memories of days spent in Edmonds High School we shall have attained our purpose. - vv-f Md Evhiratinn I O EXPRESS in some small measure the sincere feeling of gratitude and admiraf tion which we hold toward her for her sucf cessful attempts to make our school life a pleasant one, we affectionately dedicate this volume of the Echo to Mrs. 'Hallie B. Anderson. three l 1 4 My best wishes to the makers of the 1937 Echo. The Echo is made by not only the staff who must do the physical work but by everyone connected in any way What' soever, with the school. You have created a souvenir of this year of life and it will become a changing but always valuable treasure to you. H. H. HOFFLAND. To the Class of 1937, Greetings! You are now entering a world lost in an economic and social swamp. If you apply only what you have learned in school, you will come and stick in the mud with us. Your only salvation lies in your buckling down to earnest study and attempts at solution of the industrial and political problems that confront us. lt is imperative that you take fan active part in conununity and political affairs. We of the older generation hope that you are of good courage, for your future is what you make it. E. A. LIGHTENSTEIN. Left to right: Mr. Matt Eisen, Mr. E. A. Lichtenstein, Mr. H.

B etty Paterson Betty Paterson I HE gallant Seniors of the Class of Nincteenfhundred and thirtyfseven began -their knighthood training when as 'kPages they marched over the drawbridge into the Edmonds High School, where Miss Ruth McConihe and Mr. Paul McGibbon immediately took these young knights and ladiesfto-be and instructed them in the ways of chivalry. The Pages ended their first year with a big frolic, which became an annual event with this group, at Silver Lake. At the end of this year they were promoted as Squires to the care of Mrs. Hallie B. Anderson and Mr. Warren Bieber. These Squires proved their scholastic ability by having nine Torch members. Some of the Squires showed athletic prow- ess for they overcame the juniors and even the seniors in combat on the basketball floor. They had three Lettermen. But that wasn't all. They had the first class dance. Late in the spring after the songs of the troubadoures had died away they were advanced to the rank of Trumpeters. Mrs. Grace Bliss and Mr. E. T. Parsons undertook to guide these Trumpcters in their third step toward knighthood. They now had iifteen Torch members. Here the class originality began to show for they had an exclusive children's crusade flollyfpop partyj and my didn't the rest of the school begin to worry and ask questions? They all feared that the junior class was not going to have its junior prom, but they proved to the school that both a prom and a class party could he given successfully. Oh yes, they had acting ability too for they showed this with the presentation of The HalffWay House. They now had seven Lettermen, one of them, Annis Hovde, went to the state track meet. There were also six Letter' women. . Again the members of the class successfully passed their tests and with twelve Torch members were promoted to knighthood and weren't they proud! In this last year Mrs. Marjorie Murphy and Miss Luella Jones took over the ,task of guiding them through another successful period. Two of the class, Stanley Jennings and Donald Echelbarger, won the Westerii Washington debate championship. There were eight Lettermen and ten Letterwomen in the class. These young knights and, ladies had a Senior Ball and also staged a very successful play entitled Skidding.'l The following ten were rated highest in the class of seventyfseven: 1 Robert Lichtenstein ...................... 3.903 Mary Elizabeth Davis ........ ...... 3 .65 Mildred Hudson ............... ....... 3 .6 Donald Echelbarger ..... ...... 3 .5 47 Stanley Jennings ...... 3.436 Margaret- Little ..... ...... 3 .367 Naomi Fussell ......... ...... 3 .344 Frances Bigelow ........ ...... 3 .328 Fern Astell ............. 3.24 Richard Spoor ....... ...... 3 .185 jifteen Blast will sinh Glrntamnni D EAR ye! !

Under the guiding hands of Mrs. Grace Bliss and Mr. E. T. Parsons they have been care' fully trained and prepared to withstand their rigorous yearftofcome when they hope to become Seniors. They possessed in their talented group, twelve Torch members and ten Lettermen. During the first semester they chose a worthy emblem, that of a tiger, for their rings and pins, hoping that the design will become traditional. In December they brought to light their acting abilities in the junior play entitled New Fires, which was a great success. During the second semester these enterprising Juniors presented the annual junior Prom on the fifth of March with a very effective color scheme of red, white, and blue. This dance was proclaimed by all as a very enjoyable occasion. They closed the year with a successful Commencement Dance in honor of this year's graduating Seniors. Class oflicers for the year were: First Semester Second Semester President ............................................. ' ....... S igfred Nelson Vic Rendler Vice President ....... .... M arian Kerr Helen Wilsoii Secretary .................. .... H elen Mund Nancy Cleary Financial Secretary ...... .... I rene Miles Allison Cox Svnplinmnrr Gllaea igiatnrg A I HIS year's sophomore class has proved to be a record-breaker in more ways than one. As freshmen they won all honors for being the largest class ever to enroll in the school and are carrying on that record this year. They spent their first year within these walls adjusting themselves to their new surroundings and had little time left to distinguish themselves in school activities with the exception of a brilliant few who starred in athletics. While under the care of Mrs. Hallie B. Anderson and Mr. Warreii Bieber they sent ten members to the Torch Society and three members to the Lettermen. The sophomores made their social debut by presenting a successful dancing party on April sixteenth.

Here they were guided in their straight and narrow paths, the fifty girls by Miss Ruth McConihe, the fifty boys by Mr. Paul McGibbon. They held a private Hallowe'en party in October which was their only social function of the year, but they showed promise of being an active class in the not so distant future. They possess one Letterman. Class oilicers for the year were the following: First Semester Second Semester President .......,....... .......

Butz aah Eaalgw frnm All the Qllaamznl EHLASH! from the Seniors: Skip Day this year was junked in favor of Class Day but in the end it amounted to the same thing. On Tuesday, May 4, thc Seniors rose bright and early to ride the school bus to beautiful Lake Lucerne-a novel idea for seniors to break away from the Lake Wilderness habit but wellfworth the change, for everyone enjoyed the day immensely. Early in the morning the weather seemed destined to remain cloudy, but it cleared by noon and became warm and pleasant. A hardy few braved shivers and chills to swim, while the rest divided their time among horseback riding, hiking, canoeing, baseball, dancing, and other activities. Two meals were served by the mothers in attendance, who, incidentally, deserve a hearty vote of thanks for devoting an entire day to chaperoning their sons and daughters, but we are certain that they enjoyed it as much as the seniors. An impromptu act in the afternoon's entertainment was a combined adagio-anti' diving act presented by Archer Meyring when he upset a canoe and fell, fully' clothed, into the lake. More than one of the many cameras in evidence clicked at the crucial moment so there will be plenty of proof. We wonder what Mr. Bieber would say if he could have seen certain of his track men devouring charred weenies and insects around the campfire at suppertime! Dancing was enjoyed by many in the rustic lodge on the lakeshore until Bus' Driver Wally McDonald cranked the bus and signalled for the homeward takeoff. A tired but completely happy crew staggered into the University Triple X about midnight for refreshments, and thus fortified they were able to continue to their homes where they collapsed exhausted. The next day, however, they could still lift haughty eyebrows at the envious juniors and say, Don't you wish you were seniors, too? This year's Junior Class must be cited for their ingenuity. Instead of the usual Commencement Dance, they are to honor the seniors with a private semifformal dancing party to be given the last week of school. We are certain that this enter-- prising class will do its best to give the graduating class a royal and rousing sendfoff which will be long remembered. Cf the Class of 1939 Edmonds should be most proud, for as each day goes by they give just cause to be remembered as one of the old alma mater's outstanding classes. Mr. Bieber, Mr. Osborn and Mr. Morris will certainly not lack material for record smashing in competitive athletics and music meets. Being the largest class has afforded them a greater range of opportunities to engage in school activities so that when they become seniors, Underclassmen, beware ! But we know they will manage school affairs in the same efficient manner as has this year's senior class. The Class of 1940, trembling UQ freshmen this year, but upfandfcoming sopho' mores next year, are completing their breakingfin and promise to become active in all activities. They seem to be of a scientific turn of mind, showing interest in the radio and photo clubs, but with unbounded interest for baseball and tennis. They, too, were aided and counseled by their capable advisers, Miss Ruth McConihe and Mr. Paul McGibbon of whom they, and all the rest of the classes, will ever carry fond and appreciative recollections. twentyffour .JFZZEL JDUHEL .'1 'U!FFH1F'1l'1l. f -Jr ' W m riiuitivz VN raw i wwf -' FV Wfiiffi kwa lf:-651' L- c?w.7,?S5 s ' 3056 ' 562905 'QAQ4 '1 v'?5E1?f3E4i+P'4 www 44: f?fAvhvx?gQ3f9 3'b 4a--1, Q 5-'43-'F ?35?Jik +gg7ji13,3:,,2:--g1?f.x. ..S2'..e!-,.S2'ti1E2 ?g3s0.9 45 43 twentyffzfe twentyfsix Baclk row: Murray Sennett, Virginia Stuart, Annis Hovde, Florence Bertelsen, Bill Neider- 36115912 Sei-und row: Anna Pennell, Mina Gist, Anna May Mitchell, Kathleen Wamsley, Margaret Flodin, Irene Miles, Eileen Fischer, Agnes Stadler.

Pmnual Staff JI T was in September of ye year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Thirty-six that Milord Paul McGibbo1i did set his minde to ye task of appointing ye annual staff. After due consideration he did decide upon Sir Stanley Jennings as ye editorfinfchief. Lady Lorraine Wilcox was duly dubbed ye chief assistant. Lady Fern Astell became ye manager of all business and Lady Edith Pringle ye editor of art. Many worthy personages did proffer their services to ye editor and he did appoint subfeditors as follows: Classes, Lady Mildred Hudson, Activities, Lady Naomi Fussellg Athletics, Lady Frances Bigelowg and Features, Lady Wiiiifred Hammond. Whereupoii, ye staff being in order, attention was turned to a suitable theme for ye book. After great pondering and many sage discussions it was decided to carry out ye Olde English idea. Immediately Lady Edith, ably advised by 'Lady Jennie Berg, entered upon ye task of designing all works of art. Four heroic damsels did prove their valor under fire by urging progressive merchants of our community to advertise in ye yearbook. These four valiant maidens who risked facing ye exasperated frowns of irate businessmen were Ladies Karla Kelly, Anna Pennell, Agnes Stadler, and Waiida Yost. Ye ads are not printed in ye book this year but were lettered on large posters and displayed in ye gymnasium and anteroom at all public functions. Many scribes did noble work in writing up ye school's varied activities. In fact it often did happen that after reading a new manuscript ye editor was so overcome that he was unable to work for several hours. Due to ye many improvements in this year's book, expenditures exceeded ye bud' get so ye staff did give a benefit ball to raise needed monies. A popularity contest of lovely maidens was ye highlight of that evening. Ye editors of ye 1937 Echo wish to express their sincere appreciation to all those who have been instrumental in helping to edit this yearbook. A great deal of its success is due to Sir Paul McGibbon, Lady Dorothy Allison, and Lady Jennie Berg, ye faculty advisers. A special vote of thanks is due Sir G. F. Hatch and Sir W. D. Goble for their assistance with ye snapshots. tw C'I'lfy'S6'lJE'I'l l l Left to right: Carl Swanson, secretary: Louis Benner, vice-president, Mr. McGibbon, adviser: Mr. Caudill, adviser: Jack Beam, president. Enya' Glluh NDER the guidance of Mr. Paul McGibbon and Mr. S. C. Caudill the E. H. S. Boys' Club experienced one of the most successful years in its history. President Jack Beam, Vice President Louis Benner, and Secretary Carl Swanson worked with the cabinet in securing several motion pictures and speakers as enter- tainment for the year's series of meetings. At the first meeting Leo Lassen, ace sports announcer, addressed a general assembly. In the following month a motion picture portraying the fishing industry in Alaska was presented by the American Can Company. Mr. Frank D. Davison was the second Boys' Club speaker to be deemed worthy of a general assembly. He addressed the student body on November 4. The next meeting featured Dr. H. H. Kretzler who gave an interesting talk on health. Mr. H. B. Cunningham, Boys' Club adviser at Garfield High School, gave an inspirational talk on our life in high school. Mr. Wright of Snohomish was the principal speaker at the February gathering. In March one of the schools dangerous characters was brought to light when a kangaroo court tried our adviser, Mr. McGibbon, and found him guilty on several counts. As a climax to the year's activities the boys treated their dads to a very enjoyable evenings entertainment. Billed on the program were S. J. Jorgensen, jiu Jitsu expert of the Seattle Police Department, and several fencing 'bouts by Mr. Harvey and Mr. Smith of the men's physical education department of the University of Washington. As a special favor the Edmonds Athletic Club invited the sons and dads to witness a basketball game with the Alpine Dairy of Seattle. To finish the program hot dogs and coffee were served. ' Near the close of the year the Boys' and Girls' Clubs combined their efforts when they introduced the Alderwood eighth grade to the Edmonds High School and its activities. twentyfeight Left to right: Mary Elizabeth Davis, president: Arleen Otto, vice-president: Marion Freer, secretary: Miss Jones, adviser. Girlz' Qlluh I HE Girls' Club in Edmonds High School is the sponsor of many activities. During the year 193667 this organization took a most important part in school events. As an innovation this year, an award was given to each girl who wore her middy for fifteen weeks, so each Wediiesday saw the girls in fresh white middies. Our custom of introducing new girls in our meetings was continued this year. The sale of milk and candy from the Clubbe Shoppe proved to be popular with all In the Vodvil the girls showed that they could uswingee velly fine tune -in the Chinese orchestra. Cider and doughnuts were enjoyed by all at our Thanksgiving mixer. The Christmas spirit also prevailed and with the assistance of the Boys' Club, baskets were delivered to deserving families. The new year was started right with Friendship Week. Much courtesy and friendliness were shown that week, as everyone felt the spirit of the idea. The luck of the Irish held true on Marcli 19, when, to the strains of The Weariii' of the Green , the girls escorted their favorite boy-friend UQ to the annual Tolo where they danced amid shamrocks. All the boys testified as to their ability to spend the girls' money. l The program which the girls from Snohomish presented was a most entertaining fine. Ours, which was given in exchange, was successfully presented in their school. The final and most important event of the year was the Mothers' Day Tea held .un May 7. A varied program was given by members of the Girls' Club, followed by a social hour at refreshment time during which all mothers and daughters took part in the festivities. Committee chairmen for the year were: Bulletin - Ethel Nash, Leota Turnerg Friendship -Maxine Bentler, Alice Kerry Standards-Jean Engler, Jane Yostg Social Service -A Mina Gist, Dorothy Gouletg Milk Sale-Margaret Flodin, Agnes Stadlerg Clubbe Shoppe-joan Goring, Florence Bertelseng Rest Rooiii-Waiida Yostg Program-Roberta Mullinsg Ref freshment - Bernice Vigars, Fern Astellg Decoration-Janice Humble, Lou Serveyg Clean-up -- Naomi Fussell, Nancy Cleary.

They meet the crisis with a smile To help, they'd even walk a mile. And on their toes they must be To make everything agree. I HE stage crew under the able direction of Wilbur D. Goble helped a great deal with the success of the vodvil, plays, and other presentations. They spent hours before any performance making new scenery and seeing that everything was at its best. This year the group added three new members who helped with the work and the merrymaking. True to its reputation as a sponsor of multitudinous parties the stage crew swung it many times. In fact they swung itf' so often into the wee small hours of the night that they were usually rousted from their haven with shoes, clocks, and cat- calls. The best party of all was their annual picnic at Lake Wilderness to which each member was entitled to bring a friend who could take it. They all enjoyed a day of swimming, boating, horseback riding, and especially eating. The latter is the well known pastime of the stage crew. thirty -4 I Back row: Henning Nelson, Allen Meyer, Don Echelbarger, Stanley Jennings, Richard Spoor, Sigfred Nelson.

'he Efurrh Snrivig N organization truly worth striving for is the honor society, It consisted this year of thirty'two sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Eight of the thirtyftwo were Torchbearers, or members who had been on Torch for three consecutive years. At the first meeting of the year, in September, oflicers were chosen. Mildred Hudson was elected president, Roy Weller vieepresident, and Morgan Bartlett was chosen secretaryftreasurer. In October, the neophytes were initiated with much ceremony into the honor society. The initiation was preceded by a dinner and followed by a theater party. In December they had a Christmas party in the E. H. S. gym. The main events of the evening were games and refreshments. An icefskating party, held in March, was enjoyed by all the Torch members who attended. A huge success, the annual Torch Dance was held in April. A large crowd danced to the music of Meyers' orchestra from Snohomish. The honor societyis annual picnic in May was fun for everyone. The points you must earn to make Torch if you are a. Freshman are 28, to make Junior torch, 30, and to make Senior torch, 32 points. An Av counts 5 points, a UB counts 3 points, C and D count nothing, and an HE counts -2 points. All activities count toward Torch, such as making a first team in athletics or being a class oflicer, or an officer of Girls' or Boys' Club, or of the student body. Taking part in any school production also counts. An official survey shows that the majority of students prominent in school activities are members of Torch. It is the uallfaroundw student who makes the most progress. The Torch is especially grateful to their adviser, Miss McConihe, for her helpful guidance throughout the year. thirty-one L4 .

Rebate ' SING the cross'question style of debate on the subject: Resolved: That all Electric Utilities should be Governrnentally Owned and Operated, our veteran debate squad carried E. H. S. to new heights of success in this field of competition. The debate season started early in December, when Coach G. F. Hatch and debaters Stanley Jennings and Donald Echelbarger ferried to Oak Harbor to win one of the closest arguments of the year. Back home again they switched to the negative side to defeat Everett, and then early in January. journeyed through the ice and snow to Arlington where they rang up their third successive victory and captured the County Championship. At this point two practice contests were held with Bothell, no decision being rendered in either case. In the final debate of the regular conference season the lads came through before the home audience to down a scrappy team from Burlington and thus establish a strong claim as Northwest District Champions. i But they were not content with this. Fired with enthusiasm and confidence, Coach Hatch entered his champions in the Speech Tournament at the University of Washington on ,February ith and 6th. There in two exciting days a determined team defeated Mount Vernon Team B, Kent, SedrofWoolley', and Mount Vernon Team A to emerge victorious out of a field of fourteen teams. Besides awarding each of the victors a gold medal and the school a silver cup this triumph won a place for our squad among the finest teamsof Western VJashington. This splendid record of eight victories and no defeats was made possible chiefly by the effective coaching of Mr. Hatch, the convincing oratory of Stanley Jennings, and the persistent crossfquestioning of Donald Echelbarger. tlzirtyfthree Back row: Cal McGraw, Delmar Owen, Carl Jehola, Albert Scott, Jim Chard.

Rabin mluh I HE Edmonds High School Radio Club is composed of a group of students who are interested in radio and its application in its many fields. Radio, from every conceivable angle, is dealt with to widen the enthusiasts' knowledge. The club studies sound pictures, technique in broadcasting studios, amaf teur radio, and television, along with such unusual topics as cosmic rays, mental telepathy, and their respective connections with radio. The club was organized in 1934 and from that time on an increase in equipment and improvement in procedure have improved the activity of the organization. Now it has its own station licensed under the call letters, W7EWE, and operated by several able operators who are licensed by the Federal Communications Commission, Wasliiimgtoii, D. C. The club is occupied with various duties about the school, such as the installation and operation of radios and public address equipment which help to make the school radiofconscious. The headquarters of the organization arc located in the tower, the highest roo1n in the school building. In this, the sofcallcd crow's nest, meetings are held reg- ularly three afternoons each week. A visitor would Hnd these meetings conducted not unlike those of regular classes in school. Under the able supervision of the club's adviser, Mr. D. A. Jacobsen, the ad' vanccd club members cooperate in holding the interest of the club to topfnotch enthusiasm by offering oral reports on any phase of radio that a member wishes to have discussed. Provision has been made for wireless telegraph practice. Several speeds, being sent simultaneously, enable the enthusiasts to regulate their speed of improvement in the code technique. The club endeavors to develop several line operators , each year. The group helps to cultivate scientific minds and holds in its grip the destiny of many of its members, introducing them to a career which has risen to prominence almost over night, and which will become, perhaps, the leading Held of tomorrow. rhirtyffolm- Back row: Lorraine Wilcox, Anna Pennell, Anna May Mitchell, Betty Paterson, Shirley Wamsley, Marie Arnold, LaVern Durbin, Olive Larsen, Janet Beeson, Ethel Kronquist, Addie Garnett.

C6122 Gllnh T the beginning of the year the glee club started practicing for an 'appearance at the Alderwood Community Church. Shortly after this they sang two numbers at a P. T. A. meeting in the high school auditorium. This was followed by High School Night at the Edmonds Methodist Church where the glee club did its part by presenting several selections. After this splendid start they settled down to the regular routine of learning songs to be sung in the All School Vodvil. In this production, Studio E, the glee club sang incognito as the Ladies Lyric Club of Philadelphia. Their songs, South Sea Island Magic and Moonlight Madonna were wellfreceived by an appreciative audience. At the approach of the holiday season they were busy practicing carols and hymns for the Christmas assembly. During the second semester the membership increased to twentyfcight. The first event of the second semester was the first annual spring concert which was given on April 23. On April 30 the girls participated in the Northwest Wasliiiigtoii Music Meet at the University of Washiiigtoii. They were judged on their presentation of Mistress Margueritan and In a Japanese Garden. Next on the calendar was the Music Festival in Everett for which the girls were required to memorize a number of new songs. In keeping with the precedent of former years they sang for the entertainment of the mothers at the annual Mother's Day Tea on May 7. This was the final event on this year's schedule. Although their practice time was but two hours a week, under the leadership of their able director, Mr. Hayden Morris, they experienced a most successful and enjoyable year. thirtyfnine Back row: Stanley Jenning, Donald Foss, Archer Meyring, Richard Spoor, Eddie Crary.

Gllgnruz I HE High School Chorus made its first public appearance of the 1936-37 season at the Hughes Memorial M. E. Church where it sang several numbers in conf nection with School Night. This musical organization, under the competent direction of Mr. Hayden Morris, met every fourth period for fortyffive minutes of pleasant and profitable rehearsal. Its chief aim was to develop in its members a musical personality and a love of singing through the performance of fine examples of the different choral schools. The characterization of the Little Red School House in the vodvil was so success- ful that it was repeated at a performance in the Esperance Grade School. The Chorus also performed at a P. T. A. meeting and added its bit to the holiday spirit by singing three numbers at the annual Christmas assembly. The highlight of the second semesters activities was the Spring Concert presented in the school auditorium. In this the Chorus combined its efforts with those of the Band, Orchestra, Glec Club, and other musical organizations to provide a successful evenings entertainment. This was followed by the Everett Music Festival on May 15, at which time a day of enjoyable activities was topped off by a massed performance in the Armory Building. The versatility of the organization is apparent when it is noted that the types of music rehearsed included madrigals, negro spirituals, songs of the early English school, classic compositions, modern American songs, etc. The following is a partial list of the numbers in its repertoire: Little Heather , April is in my Mistress' Face , The Pilgrim Way , i'Sumer is ifcumen inn, Deep River , Morning , He's the Lily of the Valley , The Lost Chord , Landfsighting , Cherubim's Song , Now let all the Heavens adore Him , and Go down Moses . The Baccalaureate Service on May 23 brought to a close, for this group, a year memorable for its many enjoyable experiences and creditable performances. forty Sfvninr iilagr 5' KIDDINGU was presented by the Senior class of 1937 on March 12-. It was a snappy, fast comedy with amusing lines and interesting scenes. Judge Hardy had a doubtful nominating campaign to worry about. Estelle, the oldest daughter, left her husband because he was neglecting her. Myra, another married daughter, left her husband because he spent too much money on luxuries. Marion, the youngest daughter who is engaged to Wayne Trenton, campaigned for her father in a desperate attempt to secure his nomination. As a result of her speech Oscar Stubbins, the campaign manager, asked her to be a candidate to the state legislature. Wayne and Marion quarreled over women being in politics and she broke their engagement to run for the state legislature. Mrs. Hardy, distressed by her daughters' actions, decided to run off and leave them to settle everything to suit themselves. Marion and the Judge beg her to reconsider but she determinedly leaves her home. The muddled household struggles along for three weeks. The Judge loses the district court nomination. Estelle and Myra miss their husbands and running their own homes. Marion is lonesome for Wayne, who has been taking out the girl, Andy, the kid brother, liked. Mrs. Hardy comes home and straightens out the two married daughters. The Judge receives the nomination to the Supreme Court and Aunt Milly, an old maid teacher, makes up her mind to go out and see something of the world. For the final curtain Wayne and Marion find comfort in each other's arms. Cie? Eluninr 1512111 EO the Edmonds stage on December 11, came the play New Fires, presented by the Class of 1938. It was the story, of the Santry family-spoiled and selfish. With the exception of Stephen Santry, an author and the supposed head of the family, they were a group one would hardly care for. The plot showed the changes that occurred to them when they were placed under a ,compulsory quarantine for four weeks. Before this time they had been a family brought up in leisure, knowing little of the more serious side of life. They were lazy and selfish, .each one looking out for himself only, Compelled to stay at the little farm to which they had come only on a visit, they saw themselves as they really were. Theymade a successful attempt to improve and became a family anyone would enjoy knowing. Besides the cast, there were others just as responsible for the general success of New Fires . They were the prompter, the business managers,.the advertising com' mittee, the ushers, and the doormen. The cast and the student body felt especially grateful to their director, Mrs. Bliss, and to the stage crew under the management of Mr. Goble. fortyfone Srninr 1Hla Stnndimr: Mary Elizabeth Davis, Jane Yost.

M l E K J Hnhuil HEN we look back over the high lights of the 3647 season we recall vivid pic' tures of the All-School Vodvil, which was directed by Miss Ruth McConihe, Miss Lyla Skram, Miss Dorothy Allison, and Mr. W. D. Goble. The students and five of the faculty were the actors and the community was the audience. The vodvil combined humorous and artistic talent. Gf the many beautiful acts Bobbie Lichtenf stein with his clarinet, Edith Pringle's and Wariie Sanders' piano solos, plus singing by La Verne Durbin and Charlotte Anderson, were deeply appreciated. The eighth grade broadcast one of the most varied acts of the entire program. Vivian WOIIICT sang, Eloise Mitchell tapped while skipping rope, and that delight' ful comedy touch was given by Vxfarren Carpenter in his ready Twinkle Twinkle Little Staff' g Other high lights of the program were dances by Evelyn Yost, Frances Bigelow, Vesta XVeller, Patsy Podas and Jean Stewart. The studio orchestra sent sweet notes over the ether waves. Throughout the entire program Murray Sennett accompanied the artists with his drums. The chorus gave an act in a onceftypical country school. Howard Myers acted a perfect fool which upset Mr. Hatchls performance of the exacting duties of teach' ing. Evelyn Yost as Sassy Little and Bob Rhodes as a burly farmer lad added further to the blunders of this act. Of course every radio station has announcers. Bob Roe, Richard Hicks, and George Blough faced the mike as these pests. fortyffour WW?

Biettermrn Ig ECAUSE of the increased activities of the Boys' Club this year, the Lettermen's Club took over the job of keeping the Athletic Injury Fund and were more successful than any group has been thus far. By holding a benent show at the Princess Theater the club raised thirty-two dollars and live cents for this fund. We sincerely thank the management of the Princess Theater for extending the privilege to us. Inquiries were made as to the whereabouts of the trophies won by championship Edmonds teams in the past. The Lettermen's Club also undertook an investigation of the apparent standstill in the matter of the trophy case which was supposed to have been left to the school by the Class of '36, The results were most encouraging, and a trophy case will be installed as soon as it is possible to do so. A Hall of Fame for inspirational athletes was discussed, but at the present time no dciinite steps have been taken along this line. Ofliccrs for the year were as follows: President: Annis Hovde.

The squad contained few returning lettermen and on the whole had had little experience. A fine spirit of determination and cooperaf tion enabled Coach Bieber to develop a team that won 4, tied 3, and lost 1 game, to tie for second place in the conference standings. EDMONDS On-EVERETT RESERVES 0 In the first grid tilt of the season, the Tigers battled the Everett High Reserves to a scoreless tie at the city park. The outstanding play of the game came in the first quarter when Toothman carried the ball across the Everett goal from his own 40 yard line. The play was called back because of a clipping penalty. Swanson attempf ed a field goal later in the first quarter. fortyfeiglzt Throughout the game Edmonds threatened to score several times. A fumble robbed Edmonds of its best scoring threat. Everett never got the ball in offensive territory throughout the game. Only early season inefficiencies kept Edmonds from victory. EDMONDS 33 -EAST STANWOOD 6 The Tigers swamped the Lincoln High School of East Stanwood in the first con- ference game of the season. In the second quarter the Tigers took the ball on seven plays from their own 66 yard line to Lincoln's 19 yard line. At this point, Roe took a beautiful pass from Irby and ran it over for the first touchdown. Although the first half of the game was a bitterly fought battle the second half was a complete rout. Edmonds pierced the Lincoln defense almost at will, and Toothman lugged the ball over for four more touchdowns. In the closing minutes of the game Lincoln, after a series of passes, scored a touchdown to make the final score 33'6. This was the last time that East Stanwood will be a conference opponent of Edmonds. It is a source of satisfaction to have defeated them so decisively in our last game. EDMONDS 18 -LAKE STEVENS 0 Exhibiting a powerful running attack the Edmonds Tigers trounced Lake Stevens on the home field. The Tigers scored late in the first quarter with Toots Tooth' man carrying the ball in a center smash. Immediately after the next kickoff, the Lake Stevens punt was blocked, and Louis Benner, stocky Edmonds guard, recovered and raced 20 yards to another touchdown. The Tigers scored again after a prolonged drive late in the third quarter with Irby carrying the ball. A The game was marked by spectacular punt returning. Myers, the Lake Stevens safety man, made some of the best punt returns that Edmonds faced all season. These long returns did a great deal to keep a greater score from piling up against his team. In the closing seconds Bartlett, the Edmonds safety man, took a punt on his own 30 yard line and dodged 50 yards through a broken field to be downed on Lake Stevens' 20 as the game ended. EDMONDS 6 -MARYSVILLE 6 Marysville, boasting a strong veteran team, entered into this game as favorites to whip the fighting Tiger squad. It was a bitterly fought contest, Marysville having the advantages throughout, but Edmonds showing a defense that held in the pinches. In the third quarter, Toothman took a pass from Irby, and aided by splendid blocking, ran 40 yards for a touchdown. The Tomahawks came back with a vengeance, and by brilliant passing and hard plunging, tied the score up to 6 all. In this game Swanson was lost for the rest of the season with a dislocated shoulder. Throughout the game Edmonds concentrated too much on Holmes the Marysville star, and allowed the Marysville passing attack to click too consistently. It was a hard fought game and Edmonds had the satisfaction of tying the conf ference champions. EDMONDS 0 - SNOHOMISH 6 Edmonds tasted defeat for the only time this season when they played the Snohomish Panthers. On the first play of the game, Captain Hovde wrenched his knee and was lost for the rest of the season. This was a severe loss to the squad and throughout the game Edmonds failed to regain its morale. In the second series of downs, Snohomish completed a pass which was run to the Edmonds 12 yard line. In the next two plays the Panthers went inside tackle to score touchdown. At the beginning of the fourth, Edmonds made a determined bid to score. fortyfnine Toothman playing the best game of his career, took a pass from Myers and ran 30 yards. A pass from Roe to Ellingson made another 30 yards. Toothman added 5 yards through center and a pass was intercepted by Snohomish on their 10 yard line to stop the Tigers' seventy yard drive. - An injury list composed of Swanson, Hovde, Hamilton, Lowe, and Irby mater' ially weakened the Edmonds game. EDMUNDS 19 - STANWOOD O Playing a steady game on a wet field, Edmonds overpowered the Stanwood Pirates in a hard fought battle. Edmonds scored twice in the second quarter. Taking the ball on their own 40 yard line the Tigers marched 60 yards for the first tally. Immediately after this, a 65 yard drive ended in the second touchdown. The third quarter was marked by a number of clipping and holding penalties on both teams. Irby, Tiger halffback, made a nice end run from the Stanwood 20 yard line to score the final touchdown. Stanwood's offensive was marked by long running gains and was held twice within the Edmonds 5 yard line. The friendly rivalry that has always existed between these two schools ended this year because of the formation of the A 53 B leagues. In the future, Edmonds will meet Snohomish, Marysville, Monroe, and Arlington as conference opponents. The other members of our former conference will com' pose the B league. EDMONDS 0 - MONROE O The outstanding play of the first quarter was a punt by Irby which went out of bounds on the Monroe 1 yard line. A resulting Edmonds attack was spoiled by an incomplete pass on the fourth down. Most of the ball carrying took place in midffield with Monroe gaining the most yardage, but Edmonds developing a tough defense when it was most needed. The fourth quarter was marked by many passes on the part of both teams as each struggled desperately to break the scoreless deadlock. . The keen rivalry between these schools is apparent when we realize that neither has been beaten by the other on their home field for a great many years. Coach Bieber's Tigers tied the Monroe Bearcats for second place in the con- ference standings. EDMONDS 13 -- SULTAN 0 In the final game of the season, Edmonds defeated the Sultan Turks on Armistice Day on the home field. After the Turks first series of downs, their punt was blocked and Hamilton, Edmonds center, picked up the ball and ran 35 yards for a touch' down. The conversion was successful. In the same quarter a pass from Toothman to Bartlett from the 14 yard line scored the last touchdown of the season. The second and third quarters were uneventful, neither team getting inside the other's 20 yard line. In the fourth quarter the Turks accomplished a long drive with several beautiful passes and long running gains. This was their only threat of the game and the heavier Edmonds line held them on the one foot line. At this point Edmonds started a drive which carried the ball to the Sultan 25' yard line at which point the gun ended the game. During the season, Edmonds scored 89 points and had 18 points scored against them. From the point of games won and the final conference standings a great deal of credit is due to Coach Bieber and the efficient football machine which he devel' oped this year. Good reserves make next year's prospects fairly encouraging. An average good team should be developed by our cagey mentor. The withdrawal of Toothman, 200 lb. fullback will be a staggering loss to the squad, but knowing the fighting and determined spirit of Edmonds athletic teams, we feel safe in predicting a successful season next year. fifty Xi X .N , ,ANN , , to T l ,Qx YN Xiu, 0,,...f ,XZ ,.,.4-7 fo' Top row: B.

Mr. Bieber, coach, SING three returning lettermen as a nucleus for his squad, Coach Bieher developed a haskethall team that fought through a fairly successful season and proved itself worthy of the fine baskethall tradition at Edmonds High School. In practice games early in the season Edmonds met three truly worthy foes. Lakeside defeated the local squad twice hy scores of 31 to 25 and 29 to 24. Kirkland howed to the Tigers 43 to 21 and 47 to 19. At their first meeting, the powerful Seattle Prep team completely outclassed the Tigers and rolled up a final score of 43 to 10. In the return match, however, the Seattle team was harder pressed and was forced to rely on a lastfhalf drive to chalk up a 33 to 24 victory. Having gained valuable experience in these non-conference engagements, the Edmonds squad then settled down to the more regular task of matching its skill with that of its conference opponents. EDIVIONDS 30-MONROE 19 , Monroe, although always a fighting squad, has seldom defeated an Edmonds haskethall team. This year's conference opener ran true to form and resulted in an easy victory for the Tigers. Grover and Bartlett were the high point men with eleveg and nine points respectively. 'X EDMUNDS 21 F- SNOHOMISH 35' Facing a smoothly functioning passing and shooting attack, Edmonds was over' powered hy the Snohomish Panthers on the Snohomish floor. For the most part the Tigers' hall handling and passing were erratic and hasty. The Panthers' superior attack netted them a 37 to 21 victory. EDMUNDS 19 -MARYSVILLE 2-'Z The strongest Ma1'ysville team in recent years staged a last quarter drive to win by three points in a hard fought game. Until the final minute of play, neither team fiftyfonc had a distinct advantage, each holding the lead at sometime or another throughout the game. Irby was high man of the evening with nine markers. EDMUNDS 30-ARLINGTON 27 Although outfseored in the second half, the Tigers successfully protected thc lead that they had built up in the early stages of the game and emerged victorious over the Arlington Eagles on the home floor. Toothman led the scorers with eight Pomts- EDMUNDS 46-MUNRUE 21 Scoring more points in the third quarter than Monroe did in the entire game, the Tigers took an easy victory as the second half of the conference season got under way. Toothman, Edmonds tipfoff expert, outscored the entire Monroe team by amassing twentyfthree points. ' EDMUNDS 23 - SNUHUMISH 33 By outplaying the Tiger quintet in the second half the Snohomish team rolled up a decisive victory on the Edmonds floor. The local team was seriously handicapped when Toothman and Roe left the game on personal fouls during the first half. The contest was unusually rough and there were forty foul shots taken during the game. EDMUNDS 23 -MARYSVILLE 26 Edmonds got off to a poor start and allowed the Tomahawks to pile up a com- fortable lead in the first quarter. This lead grew steadily smaller throughout the game and the fourth quarter found Marysville stalling for time. Toothman of Edmonds and Henning of Marysville led the scorers with eleven points each. EDMUNDS 29-ARLINGTON 19 The Tigers journeyed to Arlington to win the last conference game of the season. The teams battled on even terms for three quarters and it wasn't until the final six minutes that Edmonds began the drive which netted them the victory. Grover was high point man with 'seventeen points. In final conference standings Edmonds rated third and as a result entered the Snohomish County Tournament held at the Everett Armory. COUNTY TOURNAMENT EDMUNDS 25 -- MARYSVILLE 18 Edmonds basketball teams are noted throughout the county for their ability to tight in the pinches when the odds are against them. In each of several seasons past, Edmonds has scored at least one decisive upset over a superior team. When they met Marysville, a team that had twice defeated them in conference play, the Tigers displayed the true Edmonds fighting spirit and won the game by a seven point margin. With excellent passing and shooting the Tigers took a two point lead in the first quarter and slowly lengthened it throughout the game. Grover was high man with thirteen points. EDMUNDS 25 -EVERETT 32 Playing brilliant ball, the Edmonds quintet took an early lead and held it throughout the first half. The half time score was Edmonds 19, Everett 15. Early in the third quarter, Grover, who had led the scorers in the first half, left the game because of personal fouls. Shortly after this Everett took the lead and held it throughout the remainder of the contest. The Edmonds team resembled a machine with an irreplaceable cog missing as it battled vainly to regain its efficiency and to stop the Everett attack. EDMUNDS 21 -LAKE STEVENS 18 In a poorly played but thrilling game the Tigers chalked up a victory over Lake Stevens. At the start of the fourth quarter the score was tied, but the superior Edmonds fighting spirit asserted itself and the Tigers played splendid ball during the last period. Irby led the scorers with eight points. EDMUNDS 21 -MARYSVILLE 24 Grover, who had just been chosen a member of the All-County First Team, entered the Armory with the assistance of a cane and, due to a wrenched knee sustained in the latter part of the Lake Stevens tussle, was forced to watch the game over the Tigers two point lead from the sidelines. Marysville scored their third three point victory and won third place in the County Tournament. Edmonds held a at half time but was badly outscored in the third period. A desperate fourth quarter drive was halted by the gun that ended the 1937 basketball season. In conference and tournament play Edmonds won six and lost six games. The Tigers scored 313 points and had 294 scored against them. Three lettermen and several experienced reserves will report for duty next year. fiftyftwo Top row: M. Bartlett, J. Bangerter, R.

Efrark B EEENDING the Snohomish County Track and Field Championship won on the Monroe track last year, the Edmonds cinder squad anticipated a successful season when they turned out in the middle of March. These optimistic hopes were dampened somewhat by the unusually poor weather which also dampened the tracks, retarded practices and made it impossible to hold early season meets. Because of the inclement weather, the team could not be expected to reach the peak of development that it might have attained under more favorable circumstances. Outstanding among the more consistent points-winner is high jumper, Annis Hovde, who took third place at the State Meet last year, and who is going great guns this year. Bartlett, Benner, and Roe with a fourth member are making a relay team that should be the class of the county. Roe, in the broad jump event, hurled himself 20 feet, 6 inches, at the District Meet last year. Ellingsen at the pole vault and half mile can be counted on to win a fair share of points as the season prof gresses. Slye, discus artist, is a veteran of last year's District Meet and is expected to exceed his last year's performance this season. Several nonflettermen are also showing up well in competition. Thus we have the sad picture of a wellfbalanced team, eager to show its strength in actual competition, but held back by the unreasonable attitude of jupiter Pluvius. As this goes to press, the E. H. S. squad has participated in only one meet. That was the SedrofWoolley relay carnival in which we took fifth place in a field of thirteen entries. This rating was made against the finest teams in the Northwest District. The only teams to defeat the Tigers were Mt. Vernon, SedrofWoolley, Bellingham, and Everett, teams with the best cinder tracks in the district. The Edmonds contestants placed third in the 440 relay, third in the 880 relay, and third in the sprint medley. Bartlett and Ellingsen also tied for third in the high jump. The team will compete in a dual meet at Kirkland, in the County preliminary and finals at Monroe, from which the first and second place winners will go on to the district meet at SedrofWoolley. Wiiiners at SedrofWoolley will compete in the State Meet at Pullman. - fifty-three Back row: Eddie Orner, Paul Feroe, Otis Nordstrom, Sigfred Nelson.

Glennie GACH Hatch's call for tennis turnouts was answered by live lettermen and several promising recruits. The inclement weather which handicapped all the spring sports was especially unwelcome to the tennis squad and materially delayed its early season development. D Edmonds' chances of a county championship rested chiefly on Irby, who played his fourth successive year at the first singles post. Ray made a fine showing at the District Tournament last year and has established himself as the man to beat in Snohomish County. On Anderson and Nelson at first doubles rested the task of retaining the county doubles championship won by Anderson and King last year. At the time of this writing the final county standings have not been determined, but the doubles squad has shown to good advantage in early season matches, winning occasionally and putting up a good fight even when the decision went against them. The other members of the squad are also working hard and show promise of winning a fair share of their games as the season progresses.

Only three returning lettermen were avail' able, so that it was left to a greeng squad, composed for the most part of sophof mores and freshmen, to carry the Edmonds fighting spirit onto the baseball diamond. Rain and bad weather hindered the early development of the squad, but even in losing the first conference game the teanfs showing was encouraging and it gave promise of becoming a winning outfit. First string pitcher was freshman, Chuck Johnson, while Henning Nelson, Jesse Lowe, and George Kalstrom could also be counted on to deliver in the pinches. On the receiving end were three firstfclass catchers, Ellsworth Wilcox, Dick Fagan, and Ted Dreschler. The rest of the team was not deiinitely fixed at this writing, as Coach Parsons was searching for the combination that would function with the greatest eiiiciency. This year Snohomish County was divided into two sections, the North League and the South League. Edmonds, playing in the South League, met, as its confer' ence opponents, Monroe, Snohomish, and Sultan, playing two games with each. In the first game, played with Snohomish, the Tigers lost 17 to 12. The high' light of the Edmonds showing was the surprisingly good hitting. A rough Held plus lack of experience caused many errors in fielding which accounted for most of the Snohomish runs. Edmonds fans were especially pleased with the superb fighting spirit of the Tiger squad. At the time of this writing, it is impossible to predict the final conference stand- ings, but it is safe to say that, as this year's young team gains experience, the future prospects of baseball at Edmonds High School are particularly bright. fiff5 6vv Standing: Donna Berg, Joan Gorinyc, Nancy Cleary, Miss Skram, adviser: Florence Bertelsen, Mary Elizabeth Davis, Ethel Janet, Virginia Stuart, Hazel Solemslie.

It was a novelty barn dance held on Hallowe'en night and was a great success. Early in the year, the girls had an initiation banquet to welcome four new mem' bers. There was also a second initiation at the end of the year when several new members were taken in. The club is the sponsor of the weekly posture contest, which is a continuous contest held weekly. The girls with the best posture are given a gold EHS on a purple background. Before a girl becomes a lettergirl, she gets her numeral, which is a gold E on a purple background. She is awarded this when she has made Hve 'hundred points. Wheii the girl has made one thousand points she is entitled to be a lettergirl and wear a sweater with two stripes and a letter on it. For each additional five hundred points there is a special award. These points are made 'by turning out for athletics, being on a first or second school team or a class team, and by passing tests in tumbling, dancing, and other athletic activities which are taught. Four sports days are held each year, one at the end of each sport season. This is a day on which the girls from schools all over the county meet and play basketball, baseball, speedball, and volleyball together. These days are looked forward to by every girl athlete and are sponsored by the lettergirls of the various schools. Oflicers for this year were: President, Virginia Stuartg Vice President, Florence Bertelseng and Secretary, Waiida Yost. The girls all feel that a great deal of the success of their club is due to their splendid adviser, Miss Skram. fiftyfsix I l Girlz' Atlgleiirz 4 URING the school year the girls participated in four major sports, speedball, vol' leyhall, basketball, and baseball. At the close of each season a county sportsday was held at which six schools were represented. Each team is made up of girls from each school so it is more or less individual competition rather than interfscholastic. By being on the winning team a girl earns ten points, winning color earns five points, and thirtyfiive points are given for attending and showing good sportsman- ship. After earning one thousand points a girl may become a Letterwoman. At the close of each sport season first and second school teams and class teams are picked. fiftyfseven Fifty points are given for first and twenty-five for second and for class teams. These teams play off during noon hours. Managers for these major sports were: ' Speedball -Lorraine Wilcox. Volleyball-Arleen Otto and Helen Wilson. Basketball -Hazel Solemslie and Geneva Rasmussen. Baseball-Margaret Little and Louise Hall. A girl enrolled in a physical education class participates mostly in the four major sports of the year, but at regular intervals she concentrates on posture work, which includes both exercising and relaxing. She takes part in tumbling, track, dancing, tennis, badminton and archery. Posture has been given much attention this year. A continuous posture contest was conducted each Friday noon under the direction of the Lettergirls. The girls received an arm band each time they won and, after winning the badge six times, were entitled to keep the band and were awarded fifty points. Tennis occupied the time of a large number of girls during fall and spring seasons. During the spring a winnerfloser elimination tournament was conducted in singles and in doubles to determine the tennis squad. Up to date only one school has been played, Kirkland, when Arleen Otto and Jeannette Hirzel took first doubles and.Jean Stewart played in the mixed doubles. The girls are scheduled to play four more schools before the end of the term. A ladder tourney was conducted in each class in which each player challenged one of the two players above her, thus working herself to the much coveted position at the top. Nancy Cleary served capably as tennis manager. Archery was a new sport introduced this year. The school bought six yew bows and seven sets of arrows from Mr. Duryee, noted northwest archer. An archery range was provided on the north end of the new playheld. This sport besides being enjoyable is also an aid to the development of good posture. The juggling team is still with us, and we hope they will be able to train some of the underclass girls in order that the activity will not die. They have contributed their talent to several programs. The afterfschool program is quite extensive in that one and sometimes two activities are offered each night of the week. Q Monday night girls turn out for tumbling. They work from simple forward rolls to difficult balancing stunts both as individuals and as a group. The team has contributed to the Vodvil and to several assemblies and sportsday programs. This year they have been outfitted in new costumes of white material in skirted romper style with a purple and gold chest emblem. Twentyffive points are given for turning out and twentyffive for passing the tumbling test. Tuesday night the drill team turns out. Four squads of four each step lively in intricate floor patterns. This year the team performed at the football games between halves. The official costumes this year were black skirts, white middies and black ties. Twentyfhve points are awarded to each girl who turns out. Anna Pennell served ably as drill leader. Wednesday night the folk dancers assembled. There was a splendid turnout this year, and the girls enjoyed the lively lilting dances which they learned and presented in costume at the Mother's Day Tea. Merle Evans cheerfully accompanied the group at the piano. Thursday night modern dancing proved to be of much interest to many. Even the grade school children came bouncing in to enjoy the rhythm class. The group presented several dances at the Mother's Day Tea. They were dressed in lovely pastel taffeta costumes with wreaths of real flowers in their hair. This type of dancing differs from that of the ballet in that it allows more freedom of movement because it follows the natural movements of the body and the dancers dance bare' footed. Warne Sanders served as the capable accompanist. Friday night tap dancing was enjoyed by a large group. Several of the particif pants performed in the Vodvil, and in the exchange assembly. Points are awarded for turning, out and for passing tests in all these types of dancing. Altogether this has been a most busy year for the girls who are interested in sports as well as a most profitable one for each member of the regular physical education class. . fiftyeiglzt tyfnifne Glalrnhtu' 1935-IH?-7 September-On the day September first came the blow which hurt the worst, For the school opened wide its doors, as wide as wide could be. Children studied till the day Mr. Douglas came to say That the wonders of Alaska were quite wonderful to see. That was on the twenty-second. Soon our Mr. Lassen reckoned That the girls as well as boys should be present when he spoke. Thus September fled at last, and with merely one-ninth past, The boys and girls decided that this school warn't no joke. October-With the time flying fast, the first dance came at last. Sponsored by the P.fT. A. 'Twas on October third. Then the Chewy Pictures next, coming on October sixth, Twentyffirst-the Hanscom Players -- plays were perfect, word for word. Twentyfsecond, twentyfthird, students argued not a word, But quietly vacationed 'cause of teachers' institute. Twentyfeighth-the boys' and girls' club. Twenty-ninth caused quite a hubbub 'Cause a technocrat informed us that our moneys vas no gout! On the thirtieth Mayor Durbin asked us please to quit 'disturbin' All the peace and quiet of this nice community. Not a single tear was shed, now that two months time had fled. On the thirtyffirst the Lettergirls put on their dancin' bee. November-The Davison assembly came, and seemingly was rather tame, That on November fourth, was to some a waste of time. Then the Vodvil on the thirteenth, continued on thru the fourteenth. If you owned a stamp book, it cost you nary a dime. Then came some men of high repute, those old fellows sure could toot That was on the seventeenth, the W. P. A. band. On the nineteenth came a Mounty, though he found not a single bounty. And on the twentyffirst young Itchy Scratchy got a great big hand. The twentyffourth, we called for more, now the International four Had come to entertain us in their own amazing way, At the twenty-fifth we took a glance, and we see the Senior dance, Also the boys' and girls' club met on that November day. December-December with its bitter cold brought to us a fireman hold. Captain Sanislo was speaking. That was on December seventh. Came a Middleton Symphony, followed by a Peace assembly, Then the Junior actors held their play on the eleventh. The fourteenth came with Open House. Speakers, frightened as a mouse, Stammered, blushed, and stuttered as they spoke before the crowd. On the eighteenth a debate kept the students pretty late, And as Edmonds conquered Everett, the cheering was quite loud. Now Xmas was coming near as we were ushered to assembly, That was on a Friday. Twentyfthird. With tired minds and aching domes, all the students wandered home, And not till January fourth was heard a single word. January-Coming back from their vacation, students gazed in consternation, For the days of rest had made their minds quite wary. But the Chevvy Auto Show, told us things we ought to know ' On the fifth. Thus started January. On the twelfth the Lettergirls had the neophytes in whirls 'Till they didn't know which way was up or down. 6 sixty I I l On the thirteenth came the groans, and the ghostly, ghastly moans, As the Quill and Scroll initiation caused the folks to frown. On the fifteenth came the day of Mr. Shakespeare's famous play, A Midsummer Nights Dream, which was very good. The eighteenth brought another show. Silent Enemyw-and so, The twentyfsecond ended the semester. And we stood g Pale 'and wan, with a half'year gone, and nothing much to show! On the twentyfeight the boys' and girls' clubs met. Another month is shoved behind, and to our dismay we ind It has filled our brains with murky fog which hasn't lifted yet. February W- Everybodyls hopes were humming, down the stretch our team was coming As they fought and scratched and battled to reach the tournament. Twentyfsecondg basketball. Twentyfseventhg ended all As our team came out a lowly fourth, almost broken, sadly bent. Twenty'third was not in vain. Boys' and girls' clubs met again. Next day Channing Beebe told us all about the bug and beast. Finally came the twentyfsixth, and with talent fairly mixed The P.fT. Afs young amateurs were finally released. March- Cougar Killer! on the secondg how its romance gleamed and beckoned, But we guessed we didn't have the starch. Now the Juniors show some stuff, hold a dance that's fair enough, On the fifth of this here month of March. On the tenth good news was sent about our team which bravely went To the U. of W. for the Speech Contest. On the twelfth the Senior play caused a riot for a day, For all the school's acting this play was of the best. Now you see it! Now you don't! 'Tll keep my shirt! Oh, no you won't! And Philip Foxwell baffled us with tricks. That was on the sixteenth day. On the nineteenth, girls hold sway As they all attend the Tolo with their Harrys, Toms or Dicks. The Snohomish Superintendent spoke to the boys' club and then went Back up to his school after a warm exchange of greeting. On the twentyfiifth the Dads' Night was plenty of all right. On the thirtyffirst the girls' club held a meeting. April-Everybody had a chance at the merry old Torch dance, On the second night in April. So we hear. An exchange assembly came, we forgot the school's name 'Cause it was on the thirteenth day we fear. On the sixteenth came once more the chance to rant and rip and roar As the sophomores held a shindig in the gym. On the twentyfsecond a music concert sounded line, in fact, right pert, But the twenty-sixth's light opera left our hearing rather dim. May- On May the first the Lettergirls engaged in May Day's festive whirls. With the seventh bring on the Mothers' Tea. And also the Annual dance gave the students their last chance, To see what great young dancers they could be. And the Lettermerfs big splurge was a final mournful dirge. Held late in May, and rather tame we fear. And forgetting all their sins, and with many happy grins, The students all went homeward on the last day of the year. sixtyfone Ahuvrtiarrz Let us pause for a moment to acknowledge the cooperation of the merchants who have made this yearbook possible. This year, due to a change in policy, their advertisements were not printed in the Echo but were displayed on large posters at all public functions in the high school. We are confident that this gave them better advertising and enabled us to produce a better book. The following three groups are those who purchased onefhalf, one-fourth and onefeighth page, respec- tively. These business men are progressive and courteous. They merit our gratitude and our patronage. Bien: Confectionery DeLand's Grocery Edmonds TribunefReview Hebe's Ben Franklin Store Phillips Cleaners Alderwood Mercantile A. M.
