Wager was elected to the position left open by the resignation of Mr. Albert Crimp. The other members of the Board, Mr. john Faust and Mr. C. Sterling, have continued to serve on this organization, important to, but sel- dom seen by the pupils of the school. Another change, not in the personnel of the school, but one which will affect a greater number of students now and in the future, is the construc- tion of Morgan Field, the new playground, which represents the foresight, interest, and untiring efforts of Superintendent Putnam and the members of the Board of Directors, together with the splendid cooperation of townspeople, faculty, and county officials and the C. W. A., under the management of Mr. F. T. Evans. Two tennis courts have been built on the field, and allowances have been made for the construction of a gymnasium at some time. The name of John H. Morgan, friend and adviser to scores of students during his years of service as principal, will be perpetuated, since the playground has been dedicated to him. 3

The academic accomplishments have been well balanced with dramatics, music, journalistic activities, friendships and fun and all the other phases of high school life. The changes in the school have been few but very important. Although in the third year of following 'the supervised study plan, the school employed a full-time librarian this year for the first time. Miss Margaret Short, in the capacity of librarian, has been an important addition to the school faculty, proving that the efficient use of the library facilities of the school is an essen- tial part of the supervised study plan. ln the spring of the past year, Miss K. Magdel Prusack, under the auspices of the Red Cross, came to the High School and taught a six weeks course in home nursing for senior girls. 2

Completing a year of splendid activity, the officers of the Associated Stu- dent Body have very efficiently directed the varied and interesting activities of the school with profit and pleasure to the members of the body. ln all the different phases of managership, athletics, dramatics, public speaking, and journalistic activity, the group has been successful. This year, the A. S. B. financed football, basketball, track, an all-school play, golf, tennis, kittyball, glee club, orchestra, band, school operetta., girls' athletics, debate, declamation, and extemporaneous speaking. The students also assisted in the making of the playfield and purchased nets for the tennis courts. Representative students were chosen to attend the Student Leaders' Con- ference held in Yakima in December. This conference was sponsored by the Yakima Junior College for the purpose of discussing student activities and problems with students from other high schools of the Yakima Valley. Student and faculty delegates were present from schools between Easton and Pasco, representing every school activity, athletics, school annuals, newspapers, boys' and girls' clubs, yell leading, dramatics, and others. Discussions proved ben- eficial, both in solving old problems, and helping to get a start on new activi- ties. Inspirational talks by George B. Cole of the State College of Washing- ton, together with the recreation provided, completed the program for the day's conference, making it one long to be remembered by the delegates. Many interesting, entertaining, and helpful assembly programs have been presented, under the direction of Miss Ruth Argall, for both junior and sen- ior high school students. Among the outstanding programs were those plan- ned to commemorate special days throughout the year. This year, Kenneth Bowers was elected president, Dale Correa, vice presi- dent, Grace Russell, secretary: Kermit Charlton, treasurer: Pat Dorsey, junior representativeg and George Fitterer, sophomore representative. Carter Crimp, Dale Correa, Bob Dunnington, and Merritt Des Voigne served capably as managers for the various A. S. B. sports. Wynne Rogers is flag salute leader. 4
