Dorothy O’Neal Eugene Weaverling Paul Manspeaker President Vice President Secretary-Treasurer JUNIORS September 3, 1939, we, the present Juniors of Everett High, began our high school career with fear and trembling. The upper classmen remarked that we were the “smallest and greenest bunch of Freshmen’’ they had ever seen, but we soon changed their opinion. Our Freshman party was held in the auditorium, and this gave us our first real chance to get acquainted. We decided we liked each other very much. As Sophomores we found that we were eligible to join the Dramatic Club, Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y, and the Parrot Staff. Some of us acquired positions of prominence that year in extra-curricular activities. None of us will ever forget the fun we had at our Sophomore Picnic, at Cypher Beach. As Juniors we were given a chance to show our dramatic ability in our presentation of “America First.” This was the exciting story of a young high school lad, “Donnie” Laher, who was lured into a secret organization of dangerous foreign spies, led by Lois Felton and Eldredge Williams. Other members of the cast were: Allen Mearkle, Helen Anne Balentine, Betty Peck, Carl Chamberlain, Arlene Whetstone, Bob Pee, Maryi-ose Wright, and Dexter Easton. A number of our boys made names for themselves on the basketball floor. They are: Bob Pee, Eugene Weaverling, Jack College, Dick Crawford, Paul Manspeaker, Darrell Wilt, and Eldredge Williams. Eugene Weaverling was captain for the 1941-42 season. Bob Pee was elected captain for the 1942-43 term. The Junior Prom was held May 8 in the auditorium. Its theme was a dude ranch. This idea was carried out in refreshments as well as in the decorations. The lads and lassies of Everett, dressed in the latest, gayest, evening clothes, showed their dancing ability to the sway of the music. And so we come to the present time, when we are looking forward to our Senior year—bright in athletics and drama. Arlene Whetstone Helen Ann Balentine Page eighteen
