Miss Mary Durning, a newcomer from Olympia, was the steadying influence from the faculty. The committees were active, completing the work for which they were organized. The Friendship Committee sponsored the Friendship Tea and Dance early in the year. During the holidays, the Social Wel- fare Committee, cooperating with the Boys' Club, conducted a food drive. Penny Pirates' Prattle, the Girls' Club paper, was published by the Publicity and Paper Committee. Topics of general interest to every member were included in each edition. The Standards Committee was busy making the various girls' rooms more attractive and con- venient. The Mother-Daughter Tea Committee estimated that more than three hundred mothers came to the installation ceremony and the afternoon tea. The other committees were Arts, Girls' Room, Lost and Found, and Cafeteria Patrol. A historian and an H.G.A.A. representative were also members of the cabinet. Under the auspices of the Girls' Club the White Clothes' Day Tolo was a huge success. The feature of the evening was, as in other years, the crowning of the king and queen, who were chosen by the student body. Pat Baker and Bob Wolff won the honors.

STUDENTS l 'tk' el y l VIII! I l ly X :ig PUT DEMOCRACY IN ACTION PROSPECTING for the golden nuggets of school spirit and coopera- tion, the five classes of '49 ioined to form the largest student body of Highline's twenty-five years. Working in coniunction with iunior high government, the senior high board of control, including the elected ofticers, and the representative council composed a closely knit unit of student leaders. Duly elected the foremost leader of Highline's Little Democracy was Bob Haffey, veteran of the iunior high presidency, and a sound representative, by membership, of many Pirate athletic and activity groups. Al Stanley, well-known for his fine musical background, spent the year in the co-pilot's seat as vice-president. First lady of the land was minute-minded Virginia Hansen, who, with Treasurer Mike Colasurdo, kept the Forty-Niners' history and finances on record. Junior Jean Browning, otticiating as business manager, handled 58,200 as 1,640 students bought ASB contracts. To encourage student participation and thought in all-school problems was a primary aim of the board of control and the stu- dent council. Class presidents, leaders of larger organizations, fifth period representatives, and ofticers met with administration mem- bers to report and discuss student body problems. Thus, represented by a smaller group, nineteen hundred Pirates were able to share a valuable experience in democracy.

E. LEMMEL viser FOLLOWING the plan set up last year, which was to make the club more of a service organization, the Boys' Club of 1948-49 proved to be of great value to its Alma Mater. Guided by Mr. Larry Lemmel the group undertook many new services and carried on and improved the old ones. The slogan, Another Boys' Club Service, was really func- tioning in forty-nine. One of the most interesting assemblies for '49 featured Hurri- cane Tommy Tucker, Hollywood sound man. A silver offering of more than four hundred dollars was collected at this assembly for the purpose of reimbursing the Medical Fund. Al Morgan, coxwain of the Olympic championship University of Washington crew, headlined another assembly. Morgan gave a talk and showed pictures of his trip to the Olympic Games. Later in the year an assembly was given on spring sports with the purpose of getting more boys out for athletics. Careers' Day held iointly with the Girls' Club, made a special contri- bution to vocational guidance for the upper classmen. The Welfare Committee, also working with Girls' Club, sponsored a Christmas basket drive. A new committee, dealing with publicity, proved its worth by getting Highline favorably advertised in the newspapers. Other important services rendered by Boys' Club were the selling of programs for the home basketball and football games and the managing of rooter buses for the football and basketball games away from home.
