Don't you know there is a Student Body meeting today? inquired Penny. Dashing into the spacious auditorium, Penny and Pete seated themselves in their treasured senior section. Pete, don't you think we have a keen president? You can have your president, Penny, hut I'll take that blonde Ruth Case any old time, and hoy, oh hoy, can she sing! declared an admiring Pete. Ch, thcre's Don Hcherling! No one will ever forget that day he tripped the light fantastic. 'kThere's Ed M- he's a natural showfoff. I certainly hope we have a good program today. But seriously, Penny, do you realize that on the whole we have had a series of snappy assemhlies this year? Iill never forget such important ones as that on Thanks' giving, with the Reverend Hastings as speaker, or others including Salom Rizk, the Kent Exchange, the blind musician, and Class Day. 'XWC want more student government. With this slogan, Highlincitcs voted to add the Student Council to the Board of Control. Rushing up to Penny one day last Septemher, an enthusiastic Pete informed her of his election from his homeroom to serve on the Student Council. B ec s!

The Young in Heart Always something to do for Highlinef' With that maxim before them this year's active group of parents and teachers did much for the welfare of the high school. They provided free dental and optical work for needy children in this area and kept the lunch fund generously supplied. Competent committees successfully carried through various moneyfmaking projects: a dinner, a dance at White Center, two theater parties at Den Burien, and this spring an entertaining vaudeville. A series of P.fT.A. dances were held during the latter part of the school year at the request of the students. Penny and Pete didn't miss one! Those who headed this year's group of hard workers were Mrs. Jack Martin, president, Mrs. Walt George, vicefpresidentg Mrs. Harry Aldridge, secretary, and Mr. Lawrence Graham, treasurer. Mrs. H.

Like the men who produce the finest motion picture, yet are never seen, so the school board, with all their activities, are seldom in evidence. Meeting the rapidly increasing responsibilities and problems of a fastfgrowing community, the directors have dis' played a resourcefulness that summons the respect of every high school student. At times Penny and Pete awaken to the sudden realization that the many advantages which are open to themQthe beautiful build' ing and grounds, the many recreational facilities, and the inclusive curriculum-have been made possible only by the diligence and effort of a group of men who have been serving without pay for the welfare of the community. This group of veteran workers headed by Dr. Victor Thompson, have given unstintingly of their time and abilities to make possible this outstanding institution. No better example of true citizenship could be shown by any school directors. Dr. Victor Thompson, presidentg Lyle Daverin, secretary: Charles Murison, Wm. Furman, J. T. Hathaway, vicefpresidentg Scott. Twelve

ANGELS OF MERCY Under the skillful direction of Miss Charlotte Gandolfo, and with the aid of Eleanor Iverson and Shirley Sherard, all those girls who were interested in the fundaf mentals of first aid met last fall in the girls' room. Those who were chosen as student nurses have proved themselves worthy of the trust placed in them. During the past year they have administered first aid care to many pupils who reported with minor burns and cuts acquired in shop and chemistry or who were incapacitated because of some illness. Besides giving aid to those who needed it, it was the duty of these girls to keep the girls' room in order, and they did a very fine job of it, too. KNIGHTS IN ARMOR They were on duty every day of the past yearfthose knights in gold. Knights they were in more than name for their important duties included the patrolling of the halls and the football and basketball games. In selecting the fellows to act as members, the democratic system of voting was used. Each name of the aspiring candidates was presented before the standing members and the ones most suitable were chosen. It was in this way that Pete became a member. His selection as a member not only pleased himself but Penny also. She liked the idea of Pete wearing the gold sweater. Pete liked the idea of the sweater and also the escape from homeroom. Pete enjoyed working with Captain Gus Salkeld and Ethan Austin in directing hall traffic. He thought Mr. Jensen and Mr. DeRoin as faculty advisers also proved to be regular fellows. During the course of the term the Knights of the Cutlass enjoyed several social activities under the supervision of Allen Beaudry, Pete surely enjoyed the Washington State football game and the swimming party at the Y.
