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

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

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
