Ff?0F0ffD MEN01?fHL ffl-QDXUXK7 Our Living Memorial Throughout the world the people of the United Nations are considering suitable memorials to commemorate their war dead. No longer do they Want cold stone monuments, but practical, living memorials. Highline High School is proud to be the first school in the Northwest to undertake such a memorial to its alumni who have made the supreme sacrifice in this war. The student body has accepted the responsibility of raising 535,000 to build an athletic field as a tribute to its deceased fighting alumni. It is to be constructed to the south of the present field and when completed with a track, turf, gridiron, and new grand' sands, 3000 spectators may attend events held within. At the culmination of the school year a sizeable portion of the money had been raised by selling tickets to future events in the field and from private donations. If all goes as planned, the completelyffinanced field will be ready for the football season of 1947. iq! ,eadn Jfamecominq ,flue ,memaaq ,of ,Mele RICHARD BAGGOTT HERBERT HUTCHINS HUGH NAFF BILL BOWKER VINCENT JOHNSON DONALD NEAL AL BURTON JAMES KENNEDY JIMMY NICHOLAS LAWRENCE BUTTERWORTH LEO KRUEGER RUSSELL O'DELL WILLIAM CARLSON HERBERT LARSON HAROLD OTIS ELLSWORTH DIMMITT RALPH LARSON PAT PHILLIPS EARLE EARLING DOUGLAS LEMMEL HARRY ROBINSON THOMAS EDDY DOUGLAS MORTENSEN ROBERT ROLAND GEORGE EKLUND MARTIN MC DONOUGH EDWARD RONAN ALAN GLOVER EDWARD MC GINNIS TOLL SEIKI GILBERT HAMRICK DOMINIC MINOTTO JOHN SELIN Page Sixteen

Bernharclt Citner, Nelson, Drimmel Guttebo -f- BOYS' CLUB CABINET. Boys' Club in Action Thrilling to the tunes of Highline's grand old master of swing, ye old juke box, the Boys' Club smashed all records at this year's noonf time jive sessions. But on the serious side, despite the number of men missing, a surprising list of activities was successfully undertaken. One of the most interesting and inspiring of their programs was with Gil Dobbs, champion miler of the world, at which the Flying Parson presented a timely message directed to youth as a whole. Of course the year could not be expected to come to a close without the omnipresent person of Uncle Sam summoning new recruits from their already depleted midst. This year the call included Vice President Ken Nave and Knights of the Cutlass Representative Pete lVIcDougal1 therefore, Larry O'Neal was elected to join President Fred Woldstad, Secretary Bob Gitner, and Treasurer Scott Drimmel as the new vice prexy. Rudy Guttebo was soon included in the Boys' Club Cabinet with the Senior Class Representative, Don Mirkg Bill Nelson from the junior Class, and the Sophomords jim Bernhardt. In these times of need and turmoil, no American organization would be worthy of the name did it not render a certain amount of service to those who are now giving their all in the field of strife, and the Boys' Club was definitely American in its mailing of the High Lines to the alumni serving in the armed forces, for the many appreciative notes received throughout the year from the boys proved its value. Neither did the organization neglect the home front, for the Boys' Club began a Medical Aid Fund to assist those who were injured while participating in school athletics. During the year nearly five hundred dollars was collected for this fund. Then, too, recognizing that the students were handicapped by the lack of proper announcing facilities for basketball games, dances, noon programs and the like, the club purchased a portable Public Address System. This has since justified the expense of dollars, if only by affording a complete coverage of the basketball games for those who were forced to remain in the study hall. lviaintaining tradition, the Boys' Club held its annual outdoor assembly in the spring of the year at which all bicycle and saddle enthusif asts were given an opportunity to display their skills-and of course the unforgettable juniorfSenior tugfoffwar. Yes, there's no denying the fact - fthe 1945 Boys' Club under its adviser, Mr. Jensen, repeatedly proved its value to its alma mater.
