Democracy in Action Whcii the chips were down and the scores were tallied, the 1945 Student Body could point with pride to its long list of activities. In a wartime year, a year in which the very ideals of democracy seemed to be on trial for existence, it is well to notice that in this high school these democratic principles were being practiced and upheld. It was with these ideals in view that Myron Buswell, Jack Sherwood, Patricia Barricklow, and Jean Latourette took over the leadership of the Student Body under the guidance of Mr. Leonard johnson and Mr. Carl Jensen. Foremost of its accomplishments was the living memorial, or athletic Held, dedicated to Highline's war dead, construction of which was begun in February of this year. Barring any major mishaps, the field will be ready for use at the beginning of the 1946 football season. Memorable, too, have been the programs presented this year. Outstanding in this line were the pep, talent, lettermen, Armistice Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas assemblies. These necessitated complicated preparation as they had to be presented in duplicate. Members of the Board of Control consisted of the Student Body oiiicers, both of the junior and senior high school, the Student Body Business Maiiagers, the president of each class, the Boys' and Girls' Club Presidents, and the principal and vice principal of the high school. The Student Council, which was comprised of the representatives of the senior high home rooms, was a vital part of this unit directing the policies and problems of the association.

The Keepers of the Records Mzttters of importance to the school were shuttled hack and forth with husinessflike rapidity hctween the new Administration Building, Mr. Rude's junior high office, and the senior high othce. In the latter, surrounded hy clicking typcwriters and demanding patrons, Ivlargory Skrondal capahly handled the duties of the ofhce manager and Mztry' jane Holliday ahly assisted as attendance clerk, Every morning at the head of a long line wending its way into the nurse's room, could he found Miss Charlotte Gandolfo, school nurse, and Mziry jane husily engaged in issuing absenteeism and tardiness excuses. Another integral part of the ofiice staff was the student hody husiness manager, Sally Teller, and her assistants, Naomi Plourd and Catherine Davidson. These three handled the sale of contracts, which were hought hy ninetyflive per cent of the students, and the sale of tickets for all games, plays, and student hody assemhlics. To check attendance hourly, to separate mail, to answer telephones and huzzers, to file enrollment sheets, to run numerous errands, and in general to keep the oHice running like clockwork, several girls were selected to help each period. Aside from the practical experience gained, these girls received Torch activity credits for the work they performed. Through Mr. Jensen, vice principal of the senior high school, were cleared the radio announcements which were hroadcast to the students every morning over the school's puhlic address system. The day's activities were here outlined as well as the daily progress of the Ivlemorial Field drive.
