FRESHMEN, plans First Semester Second Semester George Cooper ... President... Hob Hewitt Bob Hewitt .. Vice-President.. Jim Bartlett Don Day . Secretary . Betty June Thompson The Class of 42 boasting one hundred four- teen members were the first to enter social ac- tivity in the fall. On November 23 they held a skating party at the Silver Lake Rink. Private transportation was furnished and the proceeds were $2.50. Although diminutive in size the freshmen show great promise of good athletic teams and scholastic records. As yet they haven’t been really active but have three years left for that. Again in April the class sprang forth with a swimming party. In May a picnic closed the year of social activity. Despite their large numbers and small size they showed admirable class spirit and co- operation. We’ll expect bigger things when these timorous freshmen are elevated to the position of sophomores next year. Buck Rcte: Jimmy Busch. Newton Fischer, Bill Day. Wall Ewing Second Row: Cordon Fagan.

Phil Roe, Teiko Mafune, Dick Taylor and Eric Carlson took charge of the affair. The class members made their social debut early in May when they sponsored a successful dance in Alderwood. A second skating party and a picnic topped the year’s activities. After a year full of activity, many members already having taken prominent places in both classes and on the athletic field, this group is well prepared for junior membership next year. JUNIORS, the framework First Semester Second Semester Bob McGinn ess President George Stock amp Virginia Jennings Vice-President Bob Storm Jim Specht .... Secretary .... Anne Ganzini The first outburst of the Class of 1940, con- sisting of eighty-nine members, the smallest class in school, was the Junior Prom held Feb- ruary 4, in the Alderwood gym. The setting of the informal dance was that of valentines. Mu- sic was supplied by a nickelodian which Bob McGinness obtained. Helen Carey w as in charge of the program on which Johnny Johnson sang a cowboy song and Bertha Schroeder played a clarinet solo. A few numbers were also played by the “Jitterbugs.” On March 10, the Juniors came out with something new to E. H. S., as they presented four plays, penthouse style, in the Alderwood gym. Thirty-three students participated in two farces and two dramas which were well re- ceived. The class sponsored a skating party on March 29, at Silver Lake, private transporta- tion being furnished. Members were outstanding both in scholastic endeavors and in athletics and activities. All in all, a peppy, snappy class, these Juniors prove worthy successors to the Seniors of ’39.

Vice-President. Sam Ewing Jean McClelland .. Secretary.. Jean Ettrup Bob Downing .. Treasurer.. Winston Norgar Of the 115 Freshmen who entered Edmonds high school in 1935, 103 remained to make up the twenty-ninth graduating class. This being the largest class ever to graduate from Ed- monds may account for the fact that it has stood out in every respect, not only on the football field and basketball court, but scholastically as well. Of these 103 students the following fifteen are Torchbearers: Betty Barkemeyer, presi- dent of Torch, Carol Bucklin, Anita Christen- sen, Marian Carlson, Louise Hall, Jean Stewart, Lilly Torkelson, Charlotte Anderson, Evelyn Walker, Morgan Bartlett. Bill Hardman, Allen Meyer, Lindsay McClenny, Henning Nelson, and Bob Roe. Twenty of the senior boys are Lettermen. Bob Roe, Richard Hicks, Bob Hirschberg, Ralph Johansen, George Kallstrom, Grant Matzen, Bill Meyring. Henning Nelson. Paul Patterson, John Bangerter, Hubert Coyne, Bob Bishop, Winston Norgar, Sam Ewing, Bob Downing, Walt Fisher, Fred Stadler. Elsworth Wilcox, Bob Patterson, and Morgan Bartlett have earned awards in the various sports. Each year two boys are chosen for their out- standing work in football and in basketball, and their names are inscribed on the Inspira- tional Plaque. This year, for his outstanding work on the gridiron, Bob Roe was chosen to represent football. To represent basketball, the boys chose Howard Clark, who proved an in- spiration by his hard and faithful work. Seventeen letterwomen are Seniors. Led by Helen Weigel, Letter women’s prexy and a Senior, the girls are: Louise Hall, Margaret Olson, Vesta Weller, Mavis Slettebo, Jean Stew- art, Luretta McGraw, Lilly Torkelson, Barbara Siegrist, Helen Beckerson, Shirley Echelbarger, Mary Denby, Evelyn Walker, Geneva Rasmus- sen, Jennie Korshaven, Florence Beam, and Hazle Carlson. Last year a new idea was started, that of the class electing ten outstanding seniors. Those who were chosen this year for their leadership and hard work were: Betty Barkemeyer, Flor- ence Beam. Anita Christensen, Richard Hicks, Bill Hardman, Bob Roe, Morgan Bartlett, Allen Meyer, Bill Niederhauser, and Henning Nelson. “The Lilies of the Field,’’ an English comedy, was the play chosen for the senior class to pre- sent. It was given November 10, and proved to be outstanding. Those taking part included Betty Barkemeyer, Jean Stewart,Carol Bucklin, Mary O’Toole, Vesta Weller, Frances Howell, Betty Leader, Bob Patterson, Willis Stubbs, Joe O’Toole, and Elsworth Wilcox. The Senior Ball was held on December 17, and was all a Senior Ball should be. The audi- torium was decorated with Christmas trees, the music was by Mr. Jewell’s orchestra.

After a committee had made a study of the workings of the student governments of other schools, they obtained the views of the students in Edmonds high. The idea met with great approval, and a committee formed a constitution. The Student Association controls such activities as sports, dances, and plays. The adminis- trative body of the organization is the Board of Control. It is the job of this board to see that everything runs smoothly. It takes charge of the budgeting of school money and also plans the pay assemblies. Mr. S. C. Caudill and Mr. Paul McCibbon were the advisers of the board this year. Morgan Bartlett was the first semester president; Anita Christensen, the vice-president; Jack Bartlett, secretary; and Louise Hall, treasurer. Second semester officers were: Bob Roe, president; Helen Beckerson, vice-president; Pauline Horning, secretary; and Louise Hall, treasurer. 20 Standing: Mi Jono , Mr . Evan .

S. is the Girls’ Club, which has had an active year under the guidance of Miss Luella Jones and Mrs. Kathryn Evans. Its officers have been Flor- ence Beam, president; Ryoko Mafune, vice- president; Teiko Mafune, secretary; and Frances Howell, financial secretary. At the vodvil in the fall, the club presented a skit, “Meller Drammer.” Later in the fall it gave an exchange assembly at Snohomish. Admission, in the form of canned goods, to a gay Christmas party furnished the contents of baskets which the girls filled and distributed to bring happiness to many families. Kozees, which consisted of panel discussions by the girls, were introduced this year. The girls also conducted a paper drive to raise money. In the spring they sponsored a skating party. Perhaps the organization’s biggest events of the year were the Tolo in March, and the Mothers’ Day Tea in May. Whether it’s a tennis match or a speech by Sheriff Severyns, the Boys’ Club has had it. These two events comprised two of the regular monthly meetings of the club whose member- ship includes all the boys of the high school. The boys were responsible for the Home- coming dance and football game which was so successful. The celebration, held November 11, and carrying out the Armistice Day theme, brought alumni from surprising distances. The crowd was the largest at any school game or dance during the year. Dads’ Night is a big event for boys and dads alike. The boys entertained with refreshments, a short program, and a game. This year they chose the night of the basketball game with Marysville. In the early spring the organization helped with the P.-T. A. carnival. Heading the organization throughout the year have been Bill Niederhauser, president; Herbert Meyring, vice-president; and Elsworth Wilcox, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Paul McGib- bon was the adviser. 21 Back Rote: Marian Carlson. Carol Bucklin. Maxim Cognwcll, Bolt Roe. Don Trail. Richard Hick , Shirley Echelbarger. Dorothy Hill.

The assistant editors were Marian Carlson and Pat Podas, classes; Betty Barkemeyer and Maxine Cogswell, organizations; Scott Cady and Bob Roe, boys’ athletics; Carol Bucklin, girls’ athletics; and Mary O’Toole and Jean Stewart, activities. Art editor Katherine Johnstone was assisted by Anita Christensen, Halide Lobdell, and Lois Browder. Allen Solemslie, in charge of the photography, was assisted by Richard Taylor. Working with Richard Hicks, business man- ager, were Shirley Echelbarger and Evelyn Yost. The class future was composed by Donald Trail and Richard Fisk. Vesta Weller, Jean Busch, and Frances Howell were in charge of picture identifications. Norma Jean Wray was the secretary. Each year the membership of the honor so- ciety increases in Edmonds high school. This year, with fifty-two members, it has been larger than ever before. Ten received their Torch- hearer pins. Halloween was appropriately celebrated with the initiation. The evening, which started with a dinner, included the initiation and a theater party. It is customary for the organization to enter- tain at an assembly, usually in the fall. This year, however, they were unable to do this be- cause of the building program. In the early spring the group sponsored a swimming party. Fresh air and spring blossoms formed the novel setting for the annual Torch dance which was held on the tennis courts in Edmonds, with music a la nickolodeon. It was an informal occasion. The grand finale of the year’s activities was the picnic late in May. Mrs. Grace E. Bliss has been the adviser. Officers were Betty Barkemeyer, president; Lily Torkelson, vice-president; and Allen Meyer, secretary. 22 Back Row: Allen Solrmslie, George Luachen, Harolil I,loy«l. Di«-k Hicks. Morgan Bartlett.

Only after outstanding work on the annual or Wireless is a student eligible to membership in ibis national organization. Quill and Scroll differs from most organiza- tions in Edmonds high school in that it has sev- eral initiations a year. The first of these for this year was in the fall, when seven were intro- duced into the society. This brought the mem- bership to sixteen. The second initiation, in March, was an outdoor affair. The progressive dinner in February was one of the main mid-winter activities. The meal was divided into four courses, each course being served in a different home. Games were played afterwards. In March a joint meeting with the Queen Anne high school Quill and Scroll was held. Miss Dorothy Allison is the adviser of the group. Its officers were Marian Carlson, presi- dent; Katherine Johnston, vice-president; and Carol Bueklin, secretary. The Wireless, the Edmonds high school weekly paper, has had as its editors, Allen Meyer for the first semester, and Shelleah Williams for the second semester. The staff is made up of journalism II students who must have had a B average in their first semester journalism. Miss Dorothy Allison is the super- visor. First semester staff members were Betty Leader, features; George Luschen, boys’ sports; Jean Stewart, girls’ sports; Morgan Bartlett, office news; Evelyn Wellwood, stu- dent activities; Betty Morris, music and classes; Evelyn Walker, copy reader. Those for the second semester were Bob Roe and Fred Stadler. who took charge of the boys' sports; Barbara Siegrist. writing girls’ sports; Charlotte Anderson, Florence Beam, Scott Cady, Maxine Cogswell, and Ruth Lundholm as news writers; and Lois Smith and Norma Jean Wray as feature writers. 23 Back Row: Chariot Johnson.

Dorothy Leichty LETTERMEN LETTERWOMEN The Lettermen’s Club was made up of twen- ty-eight members this year, with Richard Hicks holding the office of president and Coach War- ren Bieber as the adviser of the club. The boys witnessed a professional ice hockey game between Seattle Seahawks and the Spo- kane Clippers, through the courtesy of the head of the Seattle Seahawks. They also followed the annual custom of joining the Lettergirls in pre- senting a dance, which had the theme of con- struction this year, since construction on the new high school building was just beginning. The award for being the most inspirational player on the basketball squad went to Howard Clark this year, and the award for being the most inspirational player on the football squad went to Bob Roe. The boys will have their names engraved on the gold plaque which hangs in the office. This is the second year that the school has had this plaque. Nine members of the basketball squad earned their letters this year, and twenty-two members of the football squad earned letters. The members of the club who are not seniors are looking forward to bigger and better ac- tivities next year. The Letterwomen had a record attendance this year, since their number of members was approximately twenty-five. As far as anyone knows this number has never been exceeded in tin history of the high school. The five new members who were initiated during the first part of the year include Lilly Torkelson, Bar- bara Siegrist, Ryoko Mafune, Agnes Anderson, and Eleanore Thompson. Throughout the year the girls have had their meeting night and their play night once a month. On November 19, the girls held a skat- ing party, and during the latter part of the year play days for the fifth, sixth, and seventh grade pupils from all the surrounding grade schools were sponsored by the Letterwomen. The Lettergirls and the Lettermen collab- orated to present a dance on September 30. This annual affair had as the theme “Under Con- struction,’’ since the construction work on the new7 building had just begun. Miss Fae Brechner is the adviser of the group: Helen Weigel is president; Jennie Kor- shaven, vice-president; and Shirley Echel- barger held the office of secretary and treasurer. 24 ART CLUB The Art Club, which was made up of nine members this year, put out some commendable work. The group made posters and did all the advertising necessary for such productions as the Senior Play, Junior Play, Senior Dance, and the Girls’ Club activities. Through the initiative of Katherine John- stone and Mr. S. C. Caudill, business manager, the Art Club was organized last year, and since its organization the club has been almost indis- pensable to the student body because of its use- ful work. In order to become a member of the Art Club, a person must make a poster which has written on it, “The Edmonds Art Club Meets 8th Period,” and then have the work approved by the art instructor. This is the only requirement necessary to become a member of the Edmonds high school Art Club. The number of members in the club this year exceeds that of last year by two members, how- ever, many of the members are seniors who will be graduated this year. The members who are not seniors and students who will join next year are expected to keep up the good work the club has been doing during its two years of exist- ence. RADIO CLUB Ihe Radio Club was very much handicapped this year, since the radio room, where they kept all the equipment and held their meetings, had to be torn down, in order to begin construction work on the new high school building. This made it necessary to move radio equipment to the home of George Blough, who acts as tru tee for the club. Since they could not hold regular meetings very conveniently in members’ homes, the club has been rather inactive during the year. How- ever, at the beginning of the year when they were “in action,” so to speak, they held meet- ings once or twice a week and made a thorough study of the theory of radio. At the beginning of the year the club was made up of approximately ten members, and according to Mr. D. A. Jacobson, science teacher and adviser of the club, they will re- sume their regular duties as usual next fall. Only a few of the members of the club are seniors who will be graduated this year.

Of course, the most enjoyment derived from working on any stage crew is had during the process of tearing down the scenery after the performance. Many of the stage crew members would be glad to verify this statement. The crew was handicapped somewhat this year, since their properties have been scattered and are being kept in several places because their old resting place has been torn down by the construction crew working on the new high school building. However, during the destruc- tion of their abode, many old properties were uncovered and since they had not been used for about five years were very promptly put in the junk pile. Initiation was held for four new' members this year and from all reports it was a bigger and better initiation than ever before. Mr. W. D. Goble, Industrial arts teacher, is the adviser of the stage crew, and Allen Solems- lie was the manager of the group this year. DEBATE Edmonds high school with a green team this year kept its debate record high. Edmonds w'as the only school from Snohomish County repre- sented at the district tournament this year and it was also the only school that won a debate with a two-man team. Because of being isolated, so to speak, the Edmond’s team was in the dark as far as details of the debating practice to be used in the tour- nament, were concerned. Because of this isola- tion, it was impossible to have any of the reg- ular debate practices with teams from other schools. Despite this disadvantage the team traveled to Bellingham on November 11, where they won two debates and lost two debates. A new' method of debate, the problem solving method which has recently grown in popu- larity, w'as used this year. In spite of the fact that they had to start with inexperienced teams this year, since the debate team of last year was made up of seniors, the team did well. Carol Bucklin was regularly a first team member while Joe Harris and Bob Rhodes alternated on the first team. Arland Smith gained experience, which will be val- uable next year, as a second team member. Standing: Eric Carlson. Vic Roc. E,1 Nyman. Allen Solenwlic, George Armstrong, James Lung.

FOOTBALL Led by Captain Dick Hicks, The Edmonds Tigers clawed through one of their most successful seasons, and under the efficient instruction of Coach Warren Bieber the team achieved an enviable record of five victories, two ties and two defeats to tie for second place in the Snohomish County A League. The Tigers had a fine pre-season record, trouncing Redmond 19-0, Kirkland 12-0, and O’Dea 20-0. For the fourth straight victory of the season the Edmonds Tigers sank their claws into the Arlington Eagles to win 12-0 on the home field. Roe scored on an end-around and Bartlett out-ran the Arlington secondary to score from the 30 yard stripe. The Tigers definitely out- classed their first conference opponents, taking the offensive all the way. Coach Bieber’s gridsters at this stage of the game was one of the three unbeaten, untied and unscored-upon teams in the state. An eleven year old jinx, coupled with a brilliant Snohomish passing attack caught the purple and gold squad flat-footed at Snohomish and knocked them from the unscored-upon list. The game resulted in a 13-13 tie. A constant barrage of passes netted the Panthers two touchdowns. Edmonds connected when Bob Downing passed to Johnny Johnson and when Chuck Johnson snared a Snohomish pass on the Edmonds five yard line and galloped 95 yards to pay territory. After battling in the rain for three quarters the Tiger grid-machine came from behind to nose out Monroe 7-6 in the last forty seconds of play at Monroe. A lighter Bearcat team outclassed the Tigers until the last minute, when a long pass from Bartlett to Roe tied the game at 6-6. Roe’s conversion was good and the Tigers had preserved their no-defeat record. Playing the strong North Kitsap Vikings on the home field Edmonds managed a 6-6 tie when Sam Ewing plowed over the chalk line in the third quarter. A courageous band of purple-gold charges played heroically before a packed grandstand on Armistice day but finally went down in defeat to the Marysville wonder-team. It was the first game the Tigers had lost on the home field in the last three years. Though the Tomahawks scored both touchdowns in the first half, the initial scoring for Edmonds came in the last 50 seconds of play in the second quarter when Ewing shot a perfect 26-yard pass to Roe, who waited in the end zone. With true Tiger spirit the local boys came back in the second half to take the offensive all the way, and keeping Marysville out of scoring territory. In the fourth quarter Edmonds lost the ball only once and staged a brilliant passing attack that clicked for a second touchdown on a flip from Bartlett to Roe. Roe’s kick for the tying point was wide by only a yard. This game was by far the outstanding one of the season. The Tigers engaged in the first post-season game ever played by an Edmonds eleven when they journeyed across the Sound Thanksgiving day for a gridiron tilt with the Bremerton Wildcats of the Cross-State League. With nothing at stake they lost all the fire they showed in the Marys- ville melee and came home on the short end of a 19-0 score. The Tigers’ string of victories and ties gave them honorable mention rating in a list of state high school grid teams of 1938. At the last official meeting the first squad elected George Stockamp as next year’s captain. Bob Roe was chosen to receive the inspirational award. Out of the forty-seven footballers who started the season twenty-two players earned awards. The returning lettermen are Jim Specht, Gordon Magill, Clint Bueklin, John Johnson, Jack Bartlett, Matt Randish, George Stockamp, Charley Johnson, Bob McGinness, Don Day, and Bill Birt. The eleven graduating seniors are Capt. Dick Hicks, Sam Ewing, Morgan Bartlett, Bob Roe, Bob Hirschberg, Bob Downing. Bob Bishop, Bill Meyring, Fred Stadler, Paul Patterson, and Walt Fisher. Although these boys will be missed we are confident that Coach Bieber will put out another winning team in 1939. 28 Block Your Man !—Coach Bieber—Manager Storm work !—Inspirational award—winner Roe—Starting lineup— Captain Dick Hicks- -Touchdown !—The full squad 29 BASKETBALL Building THE team around three returning lettermen, Ralph Johansen, Morgan Bartlett and Capt. Bob Roe, the Tigers had a better team than the records of eight wins and twelve losses would indicate. Handicapped by the lack of a home gym the Edmonds hoopsters lost much valuable practicing time traveling to Alderwood every day. Continuing last year’s heart-breaking close-decision record, the Tigers dropped the season’s opener to the strong O’Dea quintet 30-28. The Kirkland Kangaroos slapped a 28-20 defeat on the home boys who bounced back to trounce Burlington 26-15. In the initial conference tilt the Tigers received a 28-20 setback at the hands of the Monroe Bearcats. Getting some much needed practice before the conference season got into full swing the Tigers nosed out Lakeside 22-21 and then lost a high scoring contest to the O’Dea Irish, 54-38. With the Alderwood gym jammed to capacity the Tiger quintet celebrated Dad’s Night by edging out the rival Marysville team 25-24 for their first conference victory. The Panther jinx still held as Snohomish knocked off the Tigers 32-23 in the third conference melee. Although they took an early lead over Arlington, the Tigers failed to hold it and lost a close conference battle on the Eagle’s floor, 25-22. By winning a non-conference tilt from Kirkland, 27-20, Edmonds made up for the defeat the Kangaroos handed them earlier in the season. Starting the second round of conference play, the home boys edged out a victory over the Monroe Bearcats, 36 to 34, in one of the most exciting games of the campaign. Then in the return game with Lakeside, Edmonds turned back the Lions 33-27 for their third consecutive victory. Although they started off as if they were going to hand Marysville another defeat, the Tigers failed to keep their stride and fell before the onslaught of the Tomahawks by a 35-26 score at Marysville. The conference was so close that at this stage of the race wins in the remaining two games would have given the Tigers a tie for first place. However, they dropped an all important contest to the Snohomish Panthers on the latter’s floor 28-26 and ended their regular season with a 27-21 defeat at the hands of the Arlington Eagles to finish in the cellar of the Snohomish County A League. Playing the Island County champions, Oak Harbor, to determine the eighth entry in the Sno- homish County Tournament, the Tigers were beaten out in a heartbreaker by the Coupeville Wolves, 39-38. Basketball was not over yet as the cagers were invited to compete in the Sixth Annual Lake- side Invitational Tournament. Losing to Port Angeles, 35-32, in the first round of play, the Tigers came back to polish off Concrete and Redmond by scores of 36-21 and 31-30. Playing off for third place, Edmonds lost the season’s final to the Lakeside Lions, 26-19. In the twenty game schedule the Tigers scored a total of 549 points to their opponents’ 579. B. Roe was the team’s top scorer with 137 markers, followed by M. Bartlett with 107. The usual lineup had Bartlett and Bucklin at forwards, either Johnson or Johansen at center and Nelson and Roe for the guards. However, with strong reserve strength, Coach Bieber often started Matson and J. Bartlett at forwards, either Johnson or Johansen at center, and P. Roe and Downing at guards. The inspirational award went to Howard Clark whose elegibility status was held up most of the season by the State Athletic Association. Being uncertain whether he would ever get to play he kept turning out and acted like a sportsman at all times. Coach Bieber will have to find men to replace Morgan Bartlett, Ralph Johansen. Henning Nelson, Bob Roe, Grant Matson, and Bob Downing, as these boys graduate in June. Returning lettermen are two juniors, Clint Bucklin and Johnny Johnson, and one sophomore, Phil Roe. With the new gym to be ready for use next year and many promising second team players returning, the Tigers hope to climb from their lethargy of the past few seasons. 30 The must «quad.

At first singles is Harry Kretzler, only a freshman and playing fine tennis. The second singles spot is filled by Arland Smith, a junior who also plays a good game. For the doubles Coach Hatch has selected Olyn Foard and Jack Bartlett, both juniors. Myron Sjoblom and Jack Tuson at second doubles, should go places this year. As alternates for the doubles teams the Coach has chosen Richard Taylor and Bob Coomer, Ralph Johansen and Bob Storm. The singles alternate is Gordon Conrad. When this goes to press only a few matches have been held but the team is shaping up very well. To win a letter in tennis a player or team must win three matches or compete in the county tournament. According to Mr. Hatch in the last ten years Edmonds has failed only one year to place men in the county tournament to compete for the district meet. Last year’s first doubles, George Armstrong and Paul Feroe, took second place in the district tennis meet to win silver medals. They were defeated by Everett in the county tourney but turned around to lick them in the district meet. YELL TEAM Chosen by popular acclaim, the three yell leaders of Edmonds high school, Pat O’Halloran, Dick Fagan, and Vesta Weller, set a splendid example of school spirit for the student body to follow. Many games doomed to defeat were pulled from disaster to glorious victory by the inspira- tion and support given by this group and the students. BASEBALL With the Snohomish County Championship as their goal thirty-five baseballers started heavy practice about the middle of March under the tutelage of Coach £. T. Parsons. With a letterman at every position the Tigers appear to have the best ball club since the sport was revived here four years ago. The boys have plenty of hustle and experience and this combined with a true Tiger spirit makes Edmonds a real pennant threat. Most of the players have three years of play tucked under their belts. Last year the Tigers tied for the Southern division championship but lost the heart-breaking playoff to Snohomish, 1-0. During the season they won six and lost seven games. Southern division teams this year include Snohomish, Lake Stevens, Monroe, and Edmonds. The southern division winner will be pitted against the northern division king for the Snohomish County title. As this goes to press the Tigers are just to begin their practice season. Coach Parsons has scheduled games with Bellevue. O’Dea, Seattle Prep and the U. of W. Frosh and he hopes to round out the season with a trip to Bremerton or to Port Angeles. In all, the bat and ball boys will engage in about twenty games. The mound staff is again composed of Charles Johnson, George Kallstrom, and Henning Nelson. Elsworth Wilcox and Boh Hewitt are handling the catching duties. The rest of the team is not definitely set but probably will be Johnny Johnson on first, Sam Ewing on second, Morgan Bartlett at shortstop, and Winston Norgar at third base. Three Bobs; Bob Cosman, Bob Roe and Bob Bishop, will rove the outer gardens. Other infielders who will undoubtedly see action are Jack Daly, Bill Birt, and Dale Schuster. Reserve strength in the outfield includes lettermen Hubert Coyne, Don Day, and Frank Hoff. If the Tigers get their share of the breaks and no casualties arise, they should go far this year. 32 The full tennis squad- lluitlctl kills «ne Pat, Dirk, und Yflttu, yell leaders deluxe—Johnson steps to the plate— —the full huseball squad—. 33 TRACK A CROUP of ambitious tracksters answered Coach Warren Bieber’s call this year in spite of the poor condition of the track and field. Nothing has been done in the last year to improve the track, consequently several promising prospects have turned their attention to baseball. However, there are enough veterans to make a strong team, even in this year’s stiff competition. Edmonds has four state prospects this year with Bill Meyring in the mile, Morgan Bartlett in the low hurdles, the relay team composed of Bob Roe, John Bangerter, George Stockamp and Morgan Bartlett. Morgan and Bob are entered in the broad jump. Phil Roe is expected to show well in the half mile and javelin. This group will carry the brunt of the load and are likely to make it tough for other schools. Several non-lettermen are showing up well in practice. Strengthening the team are Bill Bone, Frank Nupp, and Fred Stadler in the distance runs, Jimmy Busch in the pole vault and high jump, Scott Cady in the high jump and javelin. Bob Downing in the high jump, Gordon Peterson in the sprints, and Walter Goulet in the sprints, pole vault, and high jump. Last year’s record shows two victories in early season dual meets. The Tigers swamped Kirk- land 93 to 29 and then Lakeside almost as soundly, 86 to 36. In the Sedro-Woolley Relay Carnival, Edmonds made six points to win seventh place in a field of seventeen schools. Ellingsen tied for first place in the high jump and the 440-relay team took third. In the county finals the Tigers copped 21 points for third place behind Everett and Marys- ville. The relay team and Morgan Bartlett emerged champions. Roe, Stockamp, Bangerter and Bartlett won in 1:37 and Bartlett won the broad jump with a leap of 20 feet 3% inches. At the district the scanty-clads tied for third with 16 points. “Richie” Ellingson was the only winner, taking the high jump at 6 feet % inch. Second places were won by the relay team and Bartlett in the low hurdles and broad jump. His farthest leap, 21 feet 4% inches, set a new school record. Bill Meyring took third in the mile in 4.44, also a new school record. Ellingsen added more laurels for himself and this school at the state meet in Pullman when he tied for third in his pet event, the high jump. This year’s squad will follow the same schedule with the addition of the U. of W. Relay Car- nival which is the only meet completed as this goes to press. The Tigers had entries in the half- mile relay with Bob Roe, John Bangerter, George Stockamp, and Morgan Bartlett and in the medley relay with Phil Roe, John Bangerter, Bob Roe, and Bill Meyring. In the individual events Morgan Bartlett competed in the 72-yard low hurdles and 75-yard dash. Bob Roe ran the 80-yard high hurdles. The Tiger tracksters performed even better than expected but the competition was the best in the state so the boys couldn’t gain the finals in the relays. However, Morgan Bartlett came through in the low hurdles and placed third in a field of about thirty contestants. 34 K roping stride . . . Con lot hits the skios . . .

(The managers of all the sports were chosen from the Letterwomen.) Speedbali Sports Day was held at Edmonds on October 22. Coining from Mukilteo, Snohomish, Monroe and Edmonds, one hundred and forty-five girls attended. In the All-School Vodvil the P. E. girls put on a blackface skit and the tumbling team performed. This year’s tumblers were chosen according to the points earned for athletic stunts performed last year, which were a major part of the class work. This year a list of thirty-five stunts was completed in March. Helen Beckerson had tumbling, as well as archery and drill, under her supervision. Round robin playoffs wrere initiated in volleyball. In the course of the year this method w;as found to increase the size and consistency of turnouts. One hundred and eight girls turned out and seventy-two completed the attendance requirements and filled a bus for the Sports Day at Lake Stevens. This sport was managed by Louise Hall. Later in the year the first team in volleyball had some inter-scholastic competition with Granite Falls when the Edmonds squad won fifteen out of the sixteen games played. Archery became an organized county sport this year. The archery squad and Miss Fae Rreeh- ner, who is vice-president of the county archery club, attended the first county meeting at Mukil- teo. The plans of the archery group include organized practice on Sundays throughout the sum- mer. This year the girls made their own equipment, indicating that archery has definitely come into its own. Jean Stewart and Teiko Mafune were in charge of ping pong and tennis. The rest of the minor sports were handled by Mary Denby. At the end of the first semester thirty-one qualified for the final hike. With Manager Dorothea Leichty and Coach Brechner, the girls hiked to Richmond Beach where they cooked a delicious supper. In order to go a girl had to complete fifteen miles of organized hiking. The same procedure was followed the second semester. In the chill November air the P.E. classes scuttled to the fieldhouse to establish headquarters there for the rest of the year. Basketball playoffs began in February with one hundred and three girls turning out. The games, played in round robin style, w'ere the most hotly contested battles of the year. This year under the new rule, two court basketball was played. There are three forwards allowed to shoot baskets and three guards. One guard plays jump-center. This new method of play added to the interest and action of the game, since formerly there were only two shooting forwards on a team. Florence Beam had charge of basketball. On March 18, over ninety girls attended Sports Day at Arlington. During the year, speedbali, volleyball, basketball and baseball were handled during the eighth periods. The seniors and freshmen joined forces on Mondays and the sophomores and juniors on Tuesdays. In each sport the class, and the first and second school teams were chosen according to rank in the tests given after each Sports Day. During the eighth period on Wednesdays, the tumbling and archery teams held sway. On Thurs- day the drill team practiced. Tests are held at the end of the year to determine the drill team for the next year. Baseball and track were under the management of Shirley Eehelbarger. In every track event each girl turning out had her time tabulated. Then, according to ability, each one was classified and points were awarded on the basis of these records. Baseball and track Sports Day was held at Monroe. At every Sports Day, Edmonds had the largest representation of any school and in the trim blue uniforms required of every E. H. S. girl attending, the Edmonds group dominated the scene. 36 Archery enthusiasts, Thompson, Beeson, R. Mafunc- Tennis doubles team; Anderson, T. Mafunc—On the basketball court: K. Mafunc.

Those in the group are Florence Beam, cello; George Cooper, violin; Valerie Masson, violin; and Mollie Peterson, viola. The quartet played for the All-School Vodvil and various other school activities as well as at several P.-T. A. meetings, both at Edmonds and Alderwood. They also took an active part in the Spring Concert, and played at the Music Festival held in Everett, May 29. GIRLS STRING QUARTET The Girls’ Strinc Quartet, being a branch of the Orchestra, is under the direction of Miss Fae Brechner. It is composed of three violins and one viola. The violinists are Irene Stering, Eleanore Thompson, and Valerie Masson. Mollie Peterson plays the viola. The quartet played two numbers and several accompaniments at the All-School Vodvil, several selections at various P.-T. A. meetings, and also took part in the Spring Concert. At the North- west Washington Music Meet in April they won the rating of “excellent.” ORCHESTRA The orchestra made an excellent showing this year according to all musical standards. The first duty was preparation for the All-School Vodvil. Next the Senior Play, where the sextet, composed of orchestra members, furnished the musical interludes. For the Junior Plays, the music was again furnished, this time by the entire group. Apart from these occasions were several assem- blies, outside appearances for different organizations, and assistance at the Spring Concert and at Commencement. Under the able direction of Miss Fae Brechner the thirty-eight members of the orchestra received the highest rating, that of “superior,” given at the Northwest Washington Music Meet held at the University of Washington. This rating made them eligible to compete at Portland, May 12, 13. The clarinet quartet, Bertha Schroeder, Jean Busch, Betty Morris, and Cy Plimpton, all orches- tra members, also won a “superior” rating at the Northwest Washington Music Meet. Much of the social success of Edmonds high school the past year has depended on the orchestra and they have always come through with flying colors. BAND Reports from Mr. William Osborn, band director, indicate that this group has had a very suc- cessful year. The first appearance of the band was at the Stale Fair in Puyallup, September 27, where they gave two one-hour concerts. Their selections were “June Time, “Pinafore, Stradella, and several march selections. The group played for various P.-T. A. meetings, for outside organizations, and for various school activities. For home football and basketball games a snappy Pep Band was organized to assist in the cheering. In the Northwest Washington Music Meet held at the University of Washington the entire band of 34 members participated and brought home the rating of “excellent.” For this contest they selected “Ariane,” “Martha,” and “El Capitan.” In the new five-day week classes the organization prepared a very fine recital for the Spring Concert, and also took part in the Music Festival held in Everett. 41 Top Row: Evelyn Yost.

This was the first year a junior nonette has been organized, although the senior group has existed several years. The organizations’ activities were limited this year because of many addi- tional activities and the absence of an auditorium. The junior nonette sang for the American Legion Christmas party at the Legion Hall, Christmas week. Soon after this, however, they were obliged to disband, because of rehearsals conflicting with the junior play turnouts. The senior nonette offered their services at the Alderwood P.-T. A., March 16, and also at the Alderwood Community Church, December 19, when the Metropolitan Business Men’s Committee of Seattle held a special series of revival meetings. The senior nonette sang at the annual spring concert held May 12 where their numbers were, “Elfin Horn” and “Ah Sweet Mystery of Life.” To conclude this year’s activities, the nine girls will sing some numbers at Commercement. They will include “Indian Love Call” and “Wanted—A Husband.” CHORUS The CHORUS has been very active this year, and has performed at several functions. In the vodvil they presented an act which represented a dude ranch and sang appropriate numbers. This act also featured a dance by Lottie Lee Olson and several songs by Walt Rosen. The chorus offered: “Silver On The Sage,” Ride, Tenderfoot, Ride,” “Hills of Old Wyoming” and “Shine on Harvest Moon.” This singing group will attend the Snohomish County Music Festival at Everett, held May 27. Their numbers will be: “Come Again Sweet Love,” “Surely He Hath Borne Our Griefs,” “Dear Land of Home,” “Emitte Spiritum Tuum,” “To Thee We sing,” and “The Czechoslovakian Dance Song.” The chorus has operated under a new system this year. When they are preparing for a special program, they divide their practice into three parts. The girls sing together two days, the boys two days, and on the last day, the entire group practices together. This method has been found very satisfactory. GLEE CLUR The thirty-six members of the Glee Club have had a rather difficult time this year with finding places to practice, but under the supervision of Mr. Hayden Morris they always found both the lime and the place to sing. First, the girls learned three songs, “Trees,” “When Mother Mature Sings Her Lullaby,” and “Alexander’s Rag Time Band” for their part in the All-School Vodvil. On High School night at the M. E. Church the girls sang Thanks Be To God” and several Christmas Carols. One of the most popular activities was the singing of Christmas Carols in the halls before Christmas. The Club gave “Killarney,” “Southern Melodies’ and Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms” for an Edmonds P.-T. A. meeting on April 6. For the Northwest Washington Music Meet they sang “Robin In The Rain,” and “A Prayer.' They received a rating of “good” in this contest. The final performances were “Robin In The Rain” for the Spring Concert and “Fairest Lord Jesus” for Baccalaureate. 43 44 SENIOR PLAY The cast of “Lilies of the Field” was The Rev. John Head, Joe O’Toole, Ann (his wife), Carol Bucklin; Catherine and Elizabeth (twin daughters), Betty Barkemeyer and Jean Stewart; Mrs. Rooke-Walter, Mary O’Toole; Barnaby Haddon, Bob Patterson; Violet, Betty Leader; Bryan Ropes, Willis Stubbs; Withers, Elsworth Wilcox; The Hon. Monica Flane, Frances Howell; and Lady Susan Rocker, Vesta Weller. The play was directed by Mrs. Marjorie Murphy. The play concerned the twin daughters of the vicar. The twins’ grandmother, visiting them from London, decides that as a birthday gift to one of the girls, she will present a month’s stay in London. She plans to make Barnaby Haddon, also a guest, the test as to which twin gets the trip. Hearing of the test, the girls resolve to make the most of the chance. By going old-fashioned, Elizabeth wins the first round—and the trip to London. Complications arise, but understanding and affection finally untangle them for the “Lilies of the Field.” AUTUMN VARIETIES A SPICY TAKC in the air . . . red-gold leaves drifting lazily to the ground . . . football games and waving pennants—this is a picture to suggest the motif for the 1938 vodvil, “Autumn Varieties,” held October 20 and 21. Justifying its name, the show presented a great variety of acts ranging from a dude ranch in old Wyoming to modern swing as rendered by the E.H.S. Jitterbugs. Pavlova would have blushed to see six lettermen copy her act when they gave their impression of the Dying Swan Ballet, with Dick Hicks as the Swan. Dramatic attractions were as follows: a snappy rendition of Roman life in “Pyramus and Thisbe,” “Seven Little Niggers,” “Hitchhikin’ Ain’t No Fun,” and an old-fashioned “Meller Dramer.” Vocal treats were furnished by Cowboy Walt Rosen, Rozann LeRoy, and the girls’ glee club and the chorus. Nona Yost and Lottie Lee Olson presented several entertaining dances. Excellent music was furnished throughout the performance by the school orchestra under Miss Fae Brechner. JUNIOR PLAYS Introducing the penthouse style of production here, the junior class presented four one-act plays, March 10, in the Alderwood gym. The plays directed by Mrs. Grace E. Bliss were “Bread,” “The Kleptomaniac,” “A Dollar Down” and “If Men Played Cards As Women Do.” “Bread,” a serious drama, dealt with the problems of the farmers. Those who took part were: Arland Smith, Tom Ely, Bertha Schroeder, Dorothy Gust, Dorothy Hill and Janet Nelson. “The Kleptomaniac” was a farce in which all seven parts were taken by girls. They were: Virginia Jennings, Marion Gordon, Barbara Atkinson. Mollie Peterson, Phyllis Cooper, Norma Jean Wray and Margaret Johnson. Characters in “A Dollar Down” were played by George Stockamp, Lois Hagen, Dagmar Wigen, Irene Stering and Bob Storm. The parts in the satirical comedy, “If Men Played Cards As Women Do,” were taken by four boys, Bill Birt, Warren McNutt, Kenneth Johnson and Lewis Smith. 45 laon I 939
