It is to these friends that the students go with their many and varied problems. In a system whereby a counsellor stays with a class from the eighth grade through the senior year, there is opportunity to form many true and warm friendships during the fonnative years of the student's life. Long after graduation, when a student returns to the halls of Highline, the first one that he will wish to see will be his sincere friend, his class counsellor.

When this priceless seed matures, Tennyson's prophecy will be fulfilled: A: For I dipped into the future, far as human eye could see, Saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would he, Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails, Pilots of the purple twilight, dropping down with costly halesg Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rained a ghastly dew From the nations' airy navies grappling in the central blue, Till the warfdrum throhhed no longer, and the battle flags were furled In the parliament of man, the federation of the world.

FRIENDLY FINANCIERS HIGHLTNE SUCCESSES of the past year were largely the result of the ellicieney, cooperation. and wise planning of the iivcfmemher school hoard. Not only did their lahors make it possihlc for the Highline School District to accommodate the enormous student population growth. hut the entire community henelited hy their leadership. Under the guidance of the dean of the Highline School Board, Dr. Victor Thompson. the Highline school system was developed into the largest rural school district in the state. Mr. Willizini Furman, president, had a great deal to do with the advancement of physical education programs. Lyle Guynn was vicefpresident of the school hoard. Mr. Donald Pollock, past presfdent, has served on the hoard for seven years. Superintending the activities of the entire district rested in the competent hands of the former Highline High School principal, Mr. L. D. Baker. The husiness manager and secretary of the hoard was Mr. Lyle Davcrin. a past memher of the high school faculty. A - ...aw Q T THEY SERVED US BUZZfBZZfBZ.

Dr. Ralph M. Stolzheise, psychiatrist, spoke to the parents and teachers on Understanding Human Nature. The students added to the enjoyment of the group when the Drama Cluh put on inonologuzs and a playlet, and the Home Relations classes presented a style review of the past fifty years.

FRIENDSHIP was the motivation for this ycarls Girls Club. Typifying this spirit was Friendship Day, in October, including a tea for feminine newf comers to I-Iighline and a dance at which one of these newcomers, Nancy Daniels, was crowned Miss Friendship. Activities included a food, clothing, and monetary collection for needy families, the sale of stationery and pennants, the selection of Girls of the Month, and several assemblies. Late in the term Millie I-Ieckcnliable, sophomore representative, took her place on the Cabinet. It was a rare honor, indeed, when the annual Puget Sound League Cirls' Club Conference came to Highline. This was the local Girls' Clulfs first opportunity to act as hostesses. A Tree United was chosen for the Conf ference theme, the tree standing for a wellfintegrated group. Frenzied plans were made, and decorations on the Christmas motif were hung. Then came the second of December, the three students from forf eign countries, guest speakers for the day, arrived, and ' U o D some one hundred fifty laughing girls and their advisers -- 9 made their way to the El Cenar for luncheon. XJ Following the Conference, the Cabinet decorated the halls and stairways for Christmas, put on a Christ' - mas party for all committee members, and had their 5 partyfinformal style, and a slumber party. T White Clothes Day, an annual Girls Club activity, e lvl O fl l this year under the cofchairmanship of Norma Ostrom and Arlene Van Derveer, took place on May 5. Culf minating the year's activities was the MotherfDaughter Tea, May 12, at which the new oihccrs and Cabinet were installed. It was indeed a year to be remembered i own evening of fun with a progressive dinner, a theater Q for its cooperative and friendly spirit. 4,4 ?

WHAT CAN WE D0 TO HELP? was the theme around which the 19494950 Boys' Cluh revolved. At the helm of the organization was Mr. Larry Lemmel, who attempted always to direct the hoys to new and interest' ing fields of useful endeavor. Wlien asked what the purposes of Boys' Cluh were, Mr. Lemmel replied, To further school activities and promote good will and under' standing. This the leaders sought to do, always seeing that affairs were running smoothly and without interruption. ln addition to this policy of good will, the year's activities were high' lighted hy a variety of programs. The first husiness meeting, at which the year's plans were discussed and the oflicers and cahinet were introduced, was the opening event. Another event sponsored hy this masculine element of the student hody was one of the year's most successful dances, The Bueeanneer Bounce. Immediately following the Kent' f-T47 'Tiff Highline foothall game many Pirates, elated hy victory, E 6,4 J ull heat their way to the Burien Field House for three hours xxx 'V W' of dancing and rejoicing. ' f N' Other projects included the maintaining of a hullef J Q tin hoard in the study hall, where the committee posted J clippings of interest to Highline students, and the showf 4 KA ,C X ing of a movie on the Marine hattle at Okinawa. Ac' LLM 5-lJ...1Ll-il-3 eompanying this movie was an informative talk on Mzirine life and warfare. X4 l Because of the many complications which arose against them during the year, the Boys' Cluh was not E f wholly as effective as it had hoped to he, hut at the close of its annual activity agenda, the incoming officers and X cahinet were confident of a higger and hetter year in X 1951 when that old familiar slogan, Just another Boys' i l Xl- Cluh service, will again ring through Highline's halls. - rj' CVE? f Z-xl E ,, , -1- .441- -,.1-,-,... 1 .190 MANAGERS ' Mrs. Arlene Holliday, attendanceg Mrs. Nellie Brown, ojjice.

K nly alibis easily deflated. Assisting her were Miss Kathryn Remick and Miss Carol Nilsen. Kathryn became known as the voice of Highline High School, as one of her chief jobs was answering the telephone. She also kept the permanent record cards in applefpie order and prepared the transcripts for hopeful seniors. Carol, a new member ly V Q W of the oiiice-force this year, had the privilege of handling all the financial problems of A the school, including student organizations. W i.

BACCALAUREATE . . . COMMENCBMENT-and in five short days the seniors of 1950, by donning their navy blue caps and gowns, were transformed from high schoolers to adults. Increased enrollment made it necessary for Class Day ceremonies to be held in the new gymnasium. Janet Usher and her committee planned the prophecies, bequests, history, and entertainments for that Friday in June, Chosen by the seniors were Joan Mathews, Rick Anderson, and Chuck Tucker as soloists, the rose as class flower, and the class colors-silver and rose. Speaker Dr. L. David Cowie, assisting ministers, graduate soloists, A Cappella Choir, and Senior Crchestra joined their talents on Sunday afternoon to pay tribute to the graduating seniors. Besides the service, the Baccalaureate Committee, with Muriel Weber as chairman, assembled programs and decorated the auditorium. Friendship was the theme for the senior activities, and so it was that Tuesday evening, June 6, found commencement speakers Jean Browning, Ray Parr, Elaine Daverin, and Bob DeWitt lauding friendship in the home and community, in educaf tional institutions, in the nation, and throughout the world. Adding their own tireless efforts to graduation ceremonies was Margie Tobie's committee, which tallied votes for speakers and the soloists-Lillian Manzo and Joe Paolino, assembled the program, and performed the thankless task of seating the nearly three hundred seniors. Cther committees were on the job throughout the year, not just planning Senior Week activities, but also the many other phases of graduation. Agnes Schindler was in charge of taking orders and fitting caps and gowns. Orders for pins and rings were handled by Mona Beers, the traditional gift was selected and purchased under Betty Mustoe's leadership, and the demand for cards and announcements was supplied by Anne Johanson's committee. Connie Little officiated over Senior Prom arrangements.

Us s cola B Y BRAIN bi gr. ,t MEMBERSHIP OF THE 194960 Senior High Torch Society numbered the greatest in all its existence. The group reached this height with a total of thirtyfseven senior ks J if memhers, thirtyftwo juniors, and sixty sophomores. Students in Torch were actively 1 4 -j interested in the school and its prestige as well as their own grade point averages. Mr. K-f Q Earl Trowbridge, adviser to the group, said of this honor society, 'iTorch is the synihol pi f leadershi in s'holastic and extrafcurricular activities. It is an orvani ation that recogf . I f' 'V A o p c D z 5 5- nizes leadership in school life, L . X X 5 Aims of the cluh were to develop the students in two channels of activityfscholastic f lu 'X J and social. Each memher had his own interests, and Torch recognized any musical, artisf H C, lv' A , I tic, sport, dramatic, or service talents, as long as the eontrihutor had the necessary -i X if Lu? Nix! I scholastic ahility. Points toward membership were not merely limited to a few l 'IQ NL activities alone, for almost every service to the school gave credits toward Torch membership. I - A YR '61s BUSY BRAINS Symbolic of the Society is the torch, which stands for progress, this is the emblem on the senior pin. Other insignia of Torch are onefbar pins for sophomores and twofbar pins for juniors. Oflicers for Torch-Lillian Manzo, Georgia Beal, Louanne Martin and Juanita Jaber -were all wellfknown in numerous activities around the school. According to custom, Torch pins were given to students in an assembly early in the fall. These assemblies are occasions of formality and propriety. As scheduled, a dis' tinguished speaker, the Honorable Adolphus Einsteiner, eminent educator, was intro' duced. It was not long before students recognized him to be Bob Steiner, accountant for the athletic department of the University. During the course of his entertaining remarks he spoke seriously to the students saying, Don't study for grades alone. Study, instead, for the endfproduct, your own success. Mr. Leonard Johnson concluded the program by presenting the annual Torch pins to the members of the organization. The program also included musical, dramatic and novelty numbers. Duane Smith, a cappella accompanist, played two classical numbers. Georgia Beal presented a clarinet solo accompanied by Carol Albrecht at the piano. Highline was justly proud of Torch for it was an outstanding group which worked for still more outstanding goals. Pearson, Goddard. Dean. Namara. . 62 .

WITH THEIR BRIGHT purple and gold sweaters flashing like rays of sunlight through the sometimes somber halls and seen perpetually directing the students and visitors through the milling mass of spectators at the various school functions, Knights of the Cutlass will long be remembered, especially by those who attempted a devious short cut. Lcd by Skipper Bill Angevine and his othcers, Jim Massick and Al Latimer, and inspired by the more than competent direction of Mr. Lowell Ivlason, serving his Hrst year as adviser to the Knights in Cold, this year the Cutlass was completely reorganized with a new constitution drawn up by the active members. These members were chosen at the Hrst of the year by a faculty committee, Mr. Johnson, Mr. Laird, Mr. Lemmel. Mr. Ivlason, and Mr. Trowbridge were the men directly responsible for this year's fine group. Throughout the school year a varied program was under' taken by the organization. The Hrst of these undertakings was to be on hand at all home basketball games. Vsfhenever a game was played. different Cutlass members could be recognized in the vast crowd by their purple and gold sweaters. In addition to assisting in athletic events the Cutlass has taken particular pride E sv jj KW J in the appearance of the campus. In the spring alcampaign was Clx launched to keep the campus clean. This undertaking was started in the lunch room, By keeping unnecessary paper and lunch leftfovcrs from being carried outside they stopped the chief cause of the defacing of the campus. The Cutlass set an example to be followed by the tlunior and Senior High School in completing their projects in good order. dpi Throughout the school the phrase is heard, One way, please! The Cutlass are on patrol. Truly the clays are short at Highline because there are so many knights ,.!

FRIENDLY WITH BOOKS HIGHLINBS BOOK CLUB is composed of approximately twenty students who share a common enjoyment in reading good books. The club is under the experienced leaderf ship of Harriet Lord, presidentg Verna Ness, vicefpresidentg and Ruby Bandle, secretary. These students of book lore and cultural advancement, who met twice a month during luncheon to review books and discuss other literary material, are primarily interested in increasing their own reading enjoyment. The club has assisted in several projects during the year, including the designing, making and caring for library displays and posters, writing book reviews for the High Lines, and the annual Book Club faculty tea, sponsored during Book Week. To add to the students' enjoyment, Miss Nichols, adviser, surprised club members with a party during one of the regular meetings. CURTAIN TIME COMPLETING ANOTHER of their usual busy and successful years Drama Shoppe again proved itself . . . a group that has been organized strictly for the enjoyment of the students, as stated the adviser, Miss Dorothy Shipley. This goal was carried out to the fullest extent by their officers, Bob DeWitt, president, Margie Tobie, vicefpresif dent, Agnes Schindler, secretary, and jean Browning, business manager. Included in their busy schedule was the presentation of the allfschool production, Ghost Wzinted, a threefact comedy with Bob DeWitt, Gerry Talent, Marjorie Tobie and Norman Boulanger assuming leading roles. Other activities of Drama Shoppe included the production of pantomimes, onefact plays, and scenes from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Nights Dream, for P.fT. A. programs and school assemblies. The highlight of their social life was a theater party to the Showboat, where they saw Playboy of the Western World. u64a FACT FINDERS WORKING BEHIND a background of colorful, mystic, and interesting books, the members of the library staff were found always on the job. This group led an active year helping students and, in the fall, sponsoring the annual Book Week poster contest in coordination with the art classes. The library staff could be seen at any time digging out those hardftofhnd books for the reference seekers, and helping keep the library upftofdate with the latest exhibits of new books and other subjects of interest. The library staff was made up of both boys and girls this year, some working for their own enjoyment and others for the Torch credit which they received. The group was under the supervision of Miss Claudia Nichols, and to the entire staff goes our hearty thanks for an excellent job. THEY LED THE WAY STANDING READY to greet you, hnd you a seat, and give you a program, were the always ready and willing usherettes. These girls could be found at any school movie, assembly, or sports activity. During the football season they were even braving the elements out on Memorial Field to take tickets and to help in any way possible. With the aid of some twentyffive girls at every activity all could see that everything was well under control. The girls this year were under the supervision of Mr. Roy Wahle and Miss Lydia Palmer, faculty advisers, and Juanita jaber, president of the club. The girls faced a busy year, with each week bringing a noon movie or some other activity that called for their service. Those girls that showed outstanding service during the year were privileged to usher at baccalaureate and commencement in the spring.

GIRLS ROOM COMMITTEE ARMED WITH BANDAGES, iodine, thermometers, and blankets, the members of the Girls' Room Committee were ever on hand to attend to scratches, blisters, sore throats, and various other aches and pains suffered by students at Highline. Each day presented a new and busy schedule, Mornings were given over to organizing health records and sorting permits for Miss Gandolfo. Every month, two or three girls had charge of decorating the window of the Girls' Club Room. They also kept needle and thread in the Club Room for emergencies. Juanita hlaber, chairman, was responsible for getting two girls to stay in the nurse's room each period. So many girls signed up that two shifts were organized, one for Hrst and one for second semester, with extras in case of the absence of a regular girl. PENNY PIRATES' PATROL KEEPING THEIR LONELY VIGIL in the halls during class periods, and often shivering at their stations, members of the Penny Pirates' Patrol, clad in blue weskits, were seen checking on the permits of all passersfby. Many an errant Pirate attempted to dodge their allfseeing eyes but to no avail. Another task for these girls was to remind students to put up their stools and clean up their waste paper in the cafeteria. But there was a more pleasant duty for this service group, that of acting as hostesses to strangers who came to Highline's halls. This group was organized as a replacement for the cafeteria patrol of the past years. However, their duties included the added hall and hostess activities. The girls were directed by their chairman, Muriel Weber, and advised by Miss Durning. .66. PUBLICITY ' Row 3 QTOPJ Hamm, Ringoen, Wilkins, Wil liams, DeWitt, Lewis.

Such was the belief of this year's Publicity Club. Margie Tobie presided over the meetings, assisted by the other officers, Bob DeWitt, vice' president, Muriel Weber, secretary, Ken Lewis, business manager, and Laurabelle Minter, faculty adviser. Representatives from each schoolfsponsored activity and a few membersfatflarge made up the club. Ghost Wanted afforded the most spectacular publicity, with blue and white ghost bedecked posters scattered over the entire district. During the sports' season, important athletic events were posted on a tenffoot sign on First Avenue, which was painted and maintained by Wilfried Hamm. Other committees were in charge of gathf ering material, putting up posters, and taking them down. Special recognition was due Mr. Simpson's art classes for this year's assistance. TICKETEERS PEREQRMING THEIR TASKS ably the Ticketeers, newest of Highline's service clubs, conducted the sale of tickets and programs at all the major events of the school year. Established for the first time this year the members of the club earned their good reputation with accurate, conscientious work. Many times the members, even though it was inconvenient for them, gave up whole evenings to perform some small task, receiving in exchange Torch credit and the satisfaction of a job well done. Led by Yolanda Parente, student business manager, Carol Nielson, president, and Mr. Hungerford, adviser, the club raised more than four hundred dollars for the benefit of the medical fund for injured athletes. Lest their excellent work be disconf tinued next year, the sophomores have been busy training an alert group of ninth graders to carry on with the work so admirably begun this year. '67f. LOGIC, THEIR WEAPON RESOLVED: That the President of the United States should be elected by the direct vote of the people. This was the battle cry that broke the quiet solitude of room 154 every third period. Armed with this cry and logic, this year's tonguefflippers forged on to win all league debates, except the last one with Auburn, which they tied. Not only did the Puget Sound League contenders bow to the Pirate forensic artists, but teams from all over the state found Highline no easy match, By continuing their winning streak, Bob DeWitt, Ray Parr, and Bob Videen brought home second place cups in crossfquestion and onefman style of debate in the state wide tourney at C.P.S. It was this outstanding record that entitled four members of the squad to go to the state tournament at WSC. Much of the credit for this year's record may be traced to Miss Lindstrom and the new debate class. SOORATES TO BENOHLEY AN ENERGETIC GROUP of sophistical intellectuals gathered every Monday noon to make a thirty minute solution of the world's complexities. Advised by Mr. Mason, the free thinkers of the Philosophy Club learned and taught at the same time. The club, celebrating its third year of existence, was principally concerned with learning through thought rather than force, and coming to the realization of what wide Helds of knowledge man has yet to conquer. As the majority of the members believed in principles of individual liberty, the condition of having no formal officers presented a unique circumstance, consequently, a discussion chairman led in presenting past and current views of thought. Some of the subjects discussed were mercy killings, the arts and sciences, religion, capital punishment, the harm of inaccurate psychology, futility of war, and the intrinsic value of salami, DEBATE ' Row 2 QTOPJ: Grier Chamberlain, Berg, Friet, Arm strong, Parr, DeWitt.

LITTLE SHOTS CLICK! and another school day memory was recorded forever. This was the Camera Club in action. The year saw a lot of activity, too, as the members learned more and more of photography, both through slides and lectures at their noon meetings and through the after school classes in developing, printing, and enlarging, conducted by Mr. Wirren Herbage, the club's adviser. A Held trip, several exhibitions of pictures, and the cofsponsorship of the Pirates' Log snapshot contest rounded out the year's events. Officers of the club were Don Olson, president, during first semester, LaMont Gooch. second semester, Cail Bliss, viccfpresident, and Rose Marie Marsden, secretaryf treasurer. It was their job to keep the interest flaming for these snapfhappy high school photographers. IN MOVIELAND PROVIDING FILMS that add to the enrichment of classroom instruction was the goal worked for by the seventeen members of the Movie Operators Club. They were led by Ben Estes, president, and ,Ioan Webber, the only girl in the club, as sccretaryf treasurer. This year that club was ably supervised by a new adviser, Mr. Chester Read, who had his hands full finding places in which to show all the films ordered by the teachers. The Movie Operators were fortunate in getting a new projector purchased by the school district and a new movie screen, donated by the Des Moines theater. These improved the noon movies shown in the school auditorium. This spring as a climax to the school year, the club enjoyed an informative tour of the University of Vvfashingf ton hlm library. n69a Johnson, Parker. baugh, Thompson PEP AS IN PEPPER WOMANHCOD'S intuitive hand ruled the members of the Pep Club this year through three of the officers. President was Pattie Stewart, with Blanche Black and Pat Carter as secretary and treasurer respectively. Harold Hanson, as vicefpresident, repref sented the male faction of the club and Mr. Spencer Swenson was faculty adviser. This year's largest extravaganza, Homecoming, welcomed the return of a record number of grads. After a whirlwind afternoon of the luncheon, meetings, and assembly, present and former students cheered the football team to victory. The big dance, high' lighted by the coronation of Queen Carol Betts and her princesses, Donna Massie and Iris Hegre, rounded out the day's activities. In April the pepsters sponsored the third annual Pioneer Day, complete with beardfgrowf ,K ing contest, a wild and woolly assembly, and I- X .. in the evening, a program tolo with special decor' ations, reminiscent of the Qld West. Girls in pigtails and pinafores, boys in plaid shirts and jeans completed the festive air of the day. lllll lill llllnl ,J Q jjfi lr 3 KH 32,597-bi W- Pep and enthusiasm are wholesome qualities and are not the sole property of any one neighf Q j i borhood, school, or group.

THEY LEAD, WE FOLLOW NC NAME could adequately describe an organization with so many and varied activif ties as the Yell and Song Club. Again head yell leader and president of the club, Monna Rae Matthew, was assisted by Juanita jaber, vicefpresidentg Jamel Hassen, secretary, and Gerry Tallent, treasurer. Miss Mildred Gibson was faculty adviser. The club's activities began on the first day of the school year, when the yell and song leaders piled up nickels in the treasury by selling football footer pencils. Shakers and rooter hats, as well as the pencils, were sold during football and basketball seasons by the many members of the club. Clever and amusing skits presented by the budding thespians of the organization heightened the student body's enthusif asm in the sports events of the fall and winter. In the spring, when many a young girls fancy turned to thoughts of being a yell or song leader, the queens and princesses spent several weeks after school teaching eager aspirants motions and formations. Highline had an especially good reason for being proud of its cheerfleaders this year when they were selected to lead state rooters at the allfstar football game in August. Sprightly Queen Monna Rae had as her royal court of yell princesses Jamel Hassen, Gerry Tallent, Audrey Counter, and Nadine Deffries. this year, were Janet Rinehart, queen, and Maxine LeDrew, Lonnie Wickstead, Betty Mustoe, Bonnie Wallace, and Frary Hager, 'J QQ, A f rwd' KQ, J Z5 cuJ 1 M151 flfftfwef C I V E.: M, v K'-3 1 f LL L , - ' J The song leaders, who displayed colorful new outnts 23333 iS9f,-5 gg J 4 J J X L N X wk. 3 Q l l 2 f l li I 6?

Thy bones are marrow' less,' in fact you have no bones, screamed Hugo Bromley at the specter of terror in this year's allfschool play, Ghost W-1nted, sponsored by the Drama Shoppe, under the direction of Miss Dorothy Shipley. The plot of the play was centered around an old New England mansion in a prevailing atmosphere of wind, rain and-Ghosts. Answering to an ad of Ghost Wzinted, two young heroes, Hugo Bromley fNorman Boulangerj and Jeff Hall QBob DeWittj, arrived upon the scene where they met two attractive young sisters, Gale and Ginger Stormgay fMarjorie Tobic and Gerry Tallentj. From this beginning the two boys find themselves thrown headlong into a chain of mysterious happenings. Much of the credit toward the success of the play was traceable to the various organizations which participated in and sponsored the hit. Stage Grew, Makeup Club, Publicity Club, and Drama Shoppe all lent their talents to the final production. L'Ghost Vkkmtedn was long remembered for its action, suspense-and the odor of seaweed, which prevailed back' stage long after the close of the production. . , , Q . - ' 1 N k I ' .

This was the statement frequently issuing from the rooms underneath Q-E: f the stage, official headquarters of the Makeup Club. The statement . 1 was usually made by President Norman Boulanger, and enforced by Lawrence Holliday, vieefpresident, and Margie McCain, secretary. Members of the club chose these camouflage artists as their leaders for 1950 because of their experience and ability. Chief checker and f eorrector of errors was Miss Claudia Nichols, who in cases of extreme emergency, and lack of time, also took over several makefup jobs. The past year proved a busy one for these revelers in grease paint, with the Senior Variety Hour, operetta, the allfschool play, and il?-Q Christmas program heading their long list of projects. These productions and the large casts that participated in them presented problems which were successfully overcome by an able staff of makefup members. .

Cpening the scene for May, joan Matthews sang Indian Love Call, especially requested by Mr. Earl Trowbridge, Then with a sweep of maroon velvet a bare stage was revealed as a background for Monte Gooch and Pat Mayer.

It must have been loveg nothing else could explain the mad, merry confusion of All Because You Kissed Me GoodfNight. Lillian Manzo and Chuck Tucker were the mixedfup victims of Cupid's darts.

PETITE PGLITICS ENDEAVGRING to provide worthwhile entertainment for the eighth and ninth grade boys, the Junior High Boys' Club furnished a wellfrounded schedule of athletic and social events under the excellent supervision of Mr. Neil McKay. Their principal officers were President Gerald Street, VicefPresident John MacKenzie, Secretary Pete Nicholas, and Treasurer jim Webster. The cabinet was composed of oflicers, five comf mittees with three members each, together with an eighth grade representative, total of twenty. To promote friendship in the Junior High and get more girls actively working in the Girls' Club, were the goals of this group under the supervision of Miss Theda Lomax.

This staff, organized last year, has been a great help to students who were given special reading or who needed assistance in outside assignments. This service group was especially valuahle to the hook worms because of the great numher of volumes added to the shelves during the summer months. The memhers had many duties, such as checking hooks in and out, collecting fines, and keeping shelves dusted and in order. Knowledgefseeking students ohtained encyclof pedias, dictionaries, and other materials at the handy window which opened to the study hall. Staff memhership first semester was seventeen, second semester, elevcng with three lihrarians serving each period.

Twenty were freshmen and the remaining t:n were eighth graders, The eighth graders were admitted in the second semester on recommendation of the faculty. In the fall a constitution was drawn up for the cluh and the olficers were elected. Olhcers were Judy Henry, presidentg Elaine King, vicefpresdentg and ,loan Ellington, secretary. The usherettes must have a grade average of or hetter and cannot he in more than three other activities. Each girl was issued a pass to excuse her early to the assemhly if she were ushering.

KNIGHTS ON PATROL WHEN ONE STROLLED down the junior high halls he was aware that the Knights of Service were taking seriously their responsibilities towards their school. The club was composed of sixteen members who were chosen while they were in the eighth grade for their sportsmanship, personality, and gentlemanflike conduct. Their sole purpose was to help their fellow students make this year at Highline more worthwhile than ever. This year the Knights of Service have been exceptionally busy. They patrolled not only the halls day in and day out but also did a splendid job of patrolling at the pref liminary basketball tournament held in the Highline gym. Although most of their members will be going on to senior high, they have selected a worthy group of thirteen to keep the ball rolling and to uphold the fine record that they have established, LIFE GUARDS, ALL THERE WAS SOMETHING about riding a school bus that turned good little cherubs into noisy little imps. If there are any doubts concerning the truth of this state' ment, ask any one of the bus patrol members and he will pour forth all the facts. lt was not easy to keep anxious passengers quiet, but these capable students seemed to manage quite well. The Washington State Patrol recognized the important services of the Bus Patrol and cooperated with them, aiding in the loading of buses and the management of afterfschool traffic. Twice this year the Bus Patrol took time out for relaxation, At Christmas the P.fT. A. sponsored a party, and during spring they took a nskiesftheflimitu outing to Playland, when the community sponsored a free party for patrol members. Mr. Wagf ness had charge of the patrol and advised them in their effort to maintain order on every one of the sixty daily trips the school busses made. .30.

BUSY LITTLE BRAINS LED BY President Doreen Bordwell, VicefPresident Judy Henry, SccretaryfTreasurer Nanettc Maze, and advised by Mr. William H. Denman, the Junior High Torch Society gained recognition as one of the junior high's foremost organizations this year. Among the forty Torch members were several studentfbody officers and Girls' Club Cabinet members, as well as the president of the Boys' Club. Mention should also be given to Miss Ina Fortin, who advised the prospective Torch members from the eighth grade. Junior High Torch is made up entirely of ninth grade students. A B grade averf age for the second and third quarters of the preceding year, plus at least one activity point, are requirements for Torch membership. The B average may be calculated by a point system. Allowing three points to equal an Avg two points for a Bug and one point for a C, a B average consists of twenty points for the previouslyfmenf tioned second and third quarters. A D or F, grade when received at the climax of any quarter, disqualifies a student from Torch membership. Each activity point is equal to one point toward the total of twenty. Activity points are obtained by active participation in clubs, music, sports, school jobs, or numerous other extrafcurricular activities. One of the highlights of this year's Torch schedule was an assembly which featured a speech by Mr. Carl Jensen and the distribution of Torch pins and certificates to the members by Mr. Denman. Another important function was the work with the Junior High Ushers' Club. This group is composed of junior high girls, several belonging to Torch. The purpose of the society is to prepare the above average students for both the scholastic and extrafcurricular activities of senior high. That this is accomplished is proved by the fact that many former Junior High Torch members continue their line xvork throughotn the four years of senior high. .g1. E 3 I ii Q -Q 5 F l a 5 ii ?

L e, ,g MODERN GLEEMEN VERSATILITY was the byfword of the Girls' Glee Club this year as they sang their way through four activityfpacked quarters. First on the agenda were marching and singing between halves of the home football games. After the final gun of the Thanksf giving Day tussle, the girls turned their attention to their contribution for the annual Christmas assembly. Their act, presented in conjunction with Boys' Glee, was The Vwfedding of the Painted Doll, which took place in Santa's toyshop. The Glee Club again sang at the Wiiiter Band Concert and proved to be an enjoyable addition to the program. Following this event, the girls began work on the operetta, Meet Arizona, in which they portrayed Dudines, Indians, and Senoritas. The Music Festival followed hard on the heels of the operetta, and the girls put in many a hard hour before they traveled to Renton to participate. The Girls' Glee Club then put on a good musical entertainment at the Coronation Ceremony for the South End Community Club Association. The Hnal performance of the year was the annual Spring Concert held in May at Highline. The Boys' Glee Club sang and marched with the girls at the football games and served as a romantic interest in The Weddiiig of the Painted Doll and in the spring operetta. Unfortunately the district music meet at Renton found the boys slightly below par because of the extended practices for Meet Arizona and as a consequence their final rating was only fair. an Q11 vyf I ' fi 'I Q i i, , , 'i ' ,ny - 'sw M Q , J I K A i I - i ' ei wa, il l . at 53 an A ey like 'l l l x .g7. fr aiu' satin e I 4.

The Glee Club participated in the Armistice Day, Thanksgiving, Torch, and Christf mas assemblies. But this wasn't the end of the activities for the year. The musicians entered the Western Vdishington Large Ensemble Contest, which was held at Renton They also sang in the annual Highline District Spring Concert. There are fortyfseven girls in this group. Sixteen girls composed the Ninth Grade Highlinettes this year. These girls were picked from the Glee Cluh for their vocal talents. The Highlinettes sang in the Torch assemhly and entered in the Western Wishington Small Ensemhle and Solo divisions. Three girls from this group entered solos in the contest. Geraldine Lindsey and Esther Baynton sang solos and received superior ratings, and Judy Henry played a piano solo. The Highlinettes also sang several songs at the junior high IvIotherfDaughter Tea. The annual Spring Concert was another event at which the Highlinettes used their vocal talents. Another junior high music organization was the Boys' Glee Cluh. Nineteen hoys from the eighth and ninth grades sang in this group. Their activities included singing in the Armistice and Christmas assemblies. Jack Kastien and Jim Strecker received recognition for their work in the Western Vxfashington Music Contest. .88- NINTH GRADE C,-LEE CLUB Row 4 QTOPJ: Biunelle Nielson Cahoon, McNeil, Belt Ellington Henry, Duke, Haiiis Hlynei Row 33 Jensen, Lindsey Hutchinson Miller, Pomrankey Blown Wtlt ner, King, Bowen Slcemin Shel herg.

Mrs. Marie Akcrlund, junior high music director, super' vised and instructed hoth of these groups. Among the many school activities in which hoth groups participated, were several assemhlics. The Glec Cluh took part in thc Armistice asscmhly, the Thanksgiving program and the Christmas performance. The I'Iighlinettes also contrihuted their talents to the Christmas program. Other musical activities in which these organizations sang including two music contests. The I'Iighlincttcs received an cxccllcnt rating for their singing in the Westcrii Wzisliington Music Mcct, which was held at I-Iighlinc in March, while the Clcc Cluh participated in another contest during the month of April. Both groups also appeared in thc annual Highline District Spring Concert. In April these two eighth grade vocal organizations, togcthcr with the rest of the junior high music department, acted as hostcsscs to the seventh graders from several of the dfstrict's grade schools. Students from Angle Lake, Des Moines, Sunnydale, Mt. Vicw, and White Center I-Icights grade schools made a tour of I-Iighlinc's music dgpartmcnt. The purposc of the tour was to promote more intcrcst in music participaf tion throughout thc district.

THROUGHOUT the school year the Junior High Band shared honor along with the Senior Band in the colorful displays at the sports' activities. Their contributions to junior high football games, pep assemblies and the homecoming assembly were indisf pensable. The complex formations demonstrated would have been impossible without the aid of this group of music enthusiasts. Public cooperation never seemed to wane, for despite the blustery weather, the winter band concert attracted a large and interested audience. The Annual Music Festival was originally planned to be presented at Puyallup, but there was a forced change of schedule because of the fire which destroyed their auditorium. As a result the festival was held at Highline and several band members, John Larson, Bill Duft, and Ray Snyder, entered. Forty other musically talented students made up the roster of Junior Orchestra. This organization, through the leadership of Mr. Howard Jakey, contributed greatly to musical events during the school year. Orchestra also had representation in the Western Vkkishington Solo contest, including Patsy Flippo, Marilyn Anderson, and Eyvonne Frechette. 090: Ready for the 3:30 Stampede.

Since the team was composed of sophomores, the squad did well considering that it played against many teams consisting of juniors and seniors. Several of the players showed varsity qualities with their vicious tackling, good blocking, hard running, and an unwavering will to win. At the end of the second team season these players continued with the varsity through the remainder of their games, and promised to he a helpful addition to the varsity squad. Among these standouts on the team were guards George Bonsey and Jim Forgaardg end, Bob Carlsong halfbacks, Bill Jackson and Arnie Hatehg and fullback, Don Doerflinger. These boys contributed greatly to the team's scoring and defensive punch. They even helped the varsity by playing the role of opposing teams in practice. Although the underclassmen may not have enjoyed this, they helped the varsity to understand the formations and plays of their opponents, a definite help when the crucial moment arrived. Despite the difficulties in coaching the thirtyfive boys, Bill Trowbridge was able to demonstrate many of the primary fundamentals of football tactics. Coaching was doubly difficult because one man had to handle both line and backfield. The team's main weakness lay in its pass defense, and several teams scored against them with desperation tosses. If this one defect had been corrected they would, undoubtedly, have had a much better record. Nevertheless, this team might become a very effective unit as a varsity, and perhaps one of Highline's better elevens.

PofntfSet-Match-Highlinell' were just a few of the exclamations heard on the Pif rate courts this year. Those making the first squad were: Carlyn Walsworth, girls' sin' glesg Betty Humes and Ann Keller, girls' doubles, Connie Little, Howard Wzillenf berg, and Ginny Selivanoff, mixed doublesg Bob Hogan, boys' singlesg and Jim Massick, Dick Steinke, Bill Batterson, Howard Wal' lenburg, who were challenging each other for placement in boys' doubles. When the ycarfbook went to press, the Pirates had defeated Clover Park, Puyallup, KentfMeridian, and the defending chamf pions, Lake Vxlishington. Since they only had three more league games to play, the chances for a tennis championship appeared excellent. PIRATE MERMEN ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY boys met Coach Hurley De Roin's call for the Hrst swim turnout. Although many were soon discouraged by the late practice, lack of space, and transportation difficulties, the enthusiastic swimmers continued. Early in the season the Pirates were picked as the strongest squad in the league, but they lost four valuable lettermen before the first meet. Left with an inexperienced team they were defeated by Longview, Aberdeen, Mt. Vernon, and Stadium. Never' theless, displaying great determination, they defeated Lincoln and Bremerton. Individual star was Jim Rueschenberg, who returned from Hawaii late in the season. He supplied the Pirates with many late season thrills with his sensational last lap sprint in the gruelling distance freestyle. He paced Highline to sixth place in the state meet, ive places, incidentally, above Renton. Joe Matelich and Bill Rule, who both swam on Highline's Hrst swim team, saw much action in dual meets. Gael Mood placed fifth in state in the one hundredfyard breast stroke. '99s THEY WENT . . CLIMAXINC a season-long, uphill battle, Highline cage performers captured the cofchampionship crown of the Puget Sound League and represented the Purple and Cold in the state tourney for the second time in three years. The hoop season was begun with a high rate of optimism, as the Pirates won by two close scores the practice tilts against South Kitsap and Bremerton, and the league inauf gural against highlyfregarded Wliite River. Clover Parks Warriors ended the Buccaneers' winning and their own losing streak by edging the Purple and Cold, 3332, Following this loss, a scrappy KentfMeridian quintet further dampened Pirate spirits by taking a 29f24 decision in the final moments. I'Iighline's championship treasure ship was put on an even keel by a 44f27 victory over the Sumner Spartans, and a spectacular fourthfquarter shooting exhibition came close, but not quite close enough, to giving Highline another cage triumph, when Lake Vx7ashington's Ted Madison led his teammates to a 46f4O overtime win. Bob lvIalone's 17 points won the seasons high point performance for the Pirate cagers. Continuing in basketball where they left off in football, the Buccaneers scalped the Renton Indians by a 32f22 score. The Highline casaba men went on to run up their victory streak to four straight by taking two hardffought battles from White River and Puyallup, 4265 and 4Of32 respectively, and swamping Clover Park by a 55f28 score. Again Jim Iddings and his Kentflvicridian teammates put a serious crimp in the Pirates' championship chances with a 3882 defeat of thc Swashbucklers. v100' Top: Bill Loken, Bob Malone.

The lovvfpoint of the season occurred when Don Heacox's Auhurn Trojans swamped the stunned Pirates, 5582. This was somewhat atoned for hy a 52134 nonfleague victory over Seattle Prep in the Harold Rude Nlemorial Game. A convincing 4681 triumph over Puyallups Vikings kept Highline's hoop squad in the race and avenged the loss suffered in foothall this last fall---fand revenge was sweet as the Pirates defeated Auhurn 4369, and set the stage for the championship. Playing their hest game of the season at exactly the right time, the Buccaneers dumped Renton for the second time this year, handing them a 3523 defeat, therehy earning for themselves the right to cofchampionship with Kentf lvferidian. Displaying the same hrand of teamwork. hustle. and playing ahility which carried them that far, the Highline quintet finally hung up a victory over the KentfMeridian squad, 3983, and won the right to represent the Puget Sound League in the State Tourney, Kelso's Highlanders, champions of the Southern Division in the Southwest Conference, fell hefore the Purple and Gold squad, 3560, in Highline's opening Tourney game. Tall Tony Vlastelica proved too much for the Bucs the second evening as he paced the Aherdeen Bobcats to a 56' 35 win over Highline. As North Central's Indians had just too much height for the Pirates, they defeated the Bucs, 4232, and eliminated them from the Tourney. -101' 35357 ..,f fx x I I ijt? 1 Q, A X950 HIGHLINE I-IIGHLINE HIGHLINE HIGHLINE HIGHLINE HIGHLINE HIGHLINE HIGHLINE STALWART STARTERS BOB MALONES first team AllfConference and third team AllfState honors were indicative of the diminutive guards value to the squad.

There were two matches at home and two away, making four in all. In order to obtain awards, the boxers particif pated in threeffourths of the matches. Awards were given for the first time this year and they were certainly well deserved. Besides fighting in the actual matches the boys were constantly driving themselves to keep in shape. Although the first two matches with White River were lost, the team redeemed itself by winning its remaining duo from Lake Washington. Coach Hurley DeRoin was responsible for the first boxing turnout at Highline last year. This busy gentleman whipped together an ambitious group of boys to represent the Pirates in this rugged sport. Outstanding among the boys on this N i-fx, year's squad was middleweight Floyd Brown, the team's only xkixf Z X undefeated senior high member. Jack Jackson, prominent L f . heavyweight, lost only one fight, while Robert Watson was jj Q' I-fx the only undefeated junior high student. Now a freshman X f X and Hghting in the bantamweight division, he shows exceedf K ing promise for his years in senior high. -' Also fairly new in the line of sports this year was wresf 7: -J tling. Since not as much competition was offered in this field, X W pig, things did not advance as well as they did in boxing. Only Wx one meet was held, and that with Stadium High of Tacoma.

SENIOR CIN DERMEN IN HIS FIRST YEAR as director of Highline track fortunes, Coach Victor Carpine assembled a squad which ranked with the best in the league, the nine veteran thinclads leading a group which, at deadline time, stood a good chance of finishing among the leaders at the conference meet. HIGHLINE 54, AUBURN 591A,, CLOVER PARK 571, Capturing seven Hrst places in their initial cinder event, the Buccanccrs began the season on an even keel.

Although the victors were only able to take one first place, they rolled up enough points to edge the host Pirates. Their lone victory in the 100fyard shuttle low hurdles was supplemented by four seconds, four thirdfplace ties, one third and two fourths. Greatest contributing factors to Highline's secondfplace finish were victories in the medley relay, Highline mile, and pole vault, plus a nearfwin in the 880 yard relay. Coming in behind the Bucs was Stadf ium of Tacoma, while Clover Park's Wzirriors came in fourth in a fourteenfschool field. Of the fourteen established marks which the athletes trained their sights on, seven were bettered and one was tied. New records were established in the Highline mile fwon by Don Schroederj, medley relay fwon by Highlinej, shot put relay, pole vault fwon by Rex Pearsonl, discus, twofmile relay and the onefmile relay. The 10:8 standard in the junior 100fyard dash was tied. Don Schroeder won the closest race of the day, hitting the tape barely one length ahead of Renton's Boh Mzithieson. Overcoming a 5Ofyard deficit, Leland Peterson won the medley relay for the Pirates in a thrilling and convincing manner. 'IO5' ' LL. ln.

BASE RCDBBERS AS THE YEARBOOK went to press, the Pirate diamond squad found the athletic road extremely rocky, still looking for their initial league victory, although Seattle Prep was edged in one of the three prefseason contests. Five returning letter winners formed the nucleus of a squad which played some extremely good ball at times. HIGHLINE 1, WHITE RIVER 3 The Hornets clidn't begin to hit until the sixth inning but then concentrated four softies for three runs and the hall game. Ron Luthy's triple and Jack Jacksons outfield fly produced the solo tally which gave the Pirates their narrow lead until the fatal sixth. HIGHLINE O, KENTMERIDIAN 1 Scoring a single run in the opening frame, the Royals held this narrow margin throughout the game, as Highline was unable to break through in the second and third.

How well the Bucs had this adage impressed upon them as the Spartans gained the lead when their first three runs were scored by men who had walked. The valleyftown nine went on to pound out seven more runs, while Highline was held to a total of three, the trio being scored hy reserves who entered the game in the later innings. HIGHLINE 5, PUYALLUP 8 Although the Pirates mustered the offense, with the help of a couple of Viking miscues, Puyallup hunched their power for five runs in the third inning in building up a victory margin. Puyallup's allfaround athletic ace, Jim Ball hlasted one of the hrst homers ever hit over the right field fence, when he clouted the roundftripper in the seventh inning. '107- MUSCLE MAIDS TURNING QUT almost every Tuesday and Thursday night at 3:30 in the Hold cracker hoxf' Highlines athletically inclined Dianas learned the true meaning of competition and sportsmanship. With Miss Miiiiiie Emry as official referee, the girls successfully completed another year under the leadership of their elected olhcers, Doris Webster, presidentg Mztrizi Schraum, vice-president, and Vsfanda Wollum, secretaryftreasurer. Each active member must participate in Hvc of the major sports, thus earning points toward an H.G.A.A. letter. These points may he accumulated during one or more of the three years the girls helong to the cluh. Two playdays at Highline highlighted the past year. One, a softhall hit, in which five schools took part, was held April 19. The other, on lvlay 3, also included recreaf tional sports, with representation from ten schools. The girls attending these playdays were entertained and were served a light lunch which added to the fun of the day. BASKETBALL FGRTUNATE in having more girls than ever hefore, H.G.A.A. continued its active year with haskcthall tournaments. Doris Wehster, captain, and a fleetffooted team gave the Hold cracker hoxv a real heating when their challenge to the first period PE. class was accepted hy captain Donna Drummond. Three games were played- H.G.A.A. won two out of three with scores of 14f13, 21f10. The year was packed full of excitement and surprises for all the girls who participated in this sport.

' 109' COMING ATI-ILETES LED AND OOACHED by Neil McKay, and assisted by two previous award winners in the linefup, the Junior High basketball team showed much promise while finishing the season firmly situated in second place. The Pirates' squad was made up of several fast, aggressive basketball players, who had plenty of power in reserve. Guard Pat Linnane and center Richard Kincaid, previous lettermen, and Frank Schraum, George Shaw, Bill Duft, and Chuck Kersten contributed largely to the team's success. During the season, which called for two games with each of the other Hve teams in thc league, the Babes started strong. They won four of their first ive games, losing only to Renton, the championship team. However, the Pirates were not quite as sucf cessful in the second half of the season. They won only two of their last five contests, to complete the season with six wins and four losses. By winning three out of five games during the past year, the Highline Junior High football squad completed their season in a tie for second place in the Northern Division standings. Although they suffered two setbacks away from home, the Babes were undefeated in three contests on Memorial Field. Highline emerged vicf torious over Lake Washington, Auburn, and Puget Sound Junior High Schools, but lost to KentfMeridian and this year's champion, Renton. The Pirates were coached by Fred Taylor, who was assisted by Dick Metcalfe. The coaches spent a major portion of their time teaching the boys the fundamentals of the game, as there was a dearth of experienced players on the team. Bliss.

JUNIOR IUMPERS WHILE WORKING with an inexperienced team which contained only a handful of freshmen, Coach Dick Metcalfe, a new mentor this year, gained recognition as a fine leader. Although at press time the track season was not yet com' pleted, the junior high track team ranked highly in all of their meets. With two contests remaining, the Babes had yet to take first place in any one of their previous meets. They Finished second to Clover Park, White River, Puyallup, and Jane Addams Junior High Schools, and were third in a meet with Renton and Lake Wishington. However, they finished ahead of Puget Sound twice, and of Sumner, and KentfMeridian. One of the standouts of the squad was pole vaulter Eugene Christie, who had taken Hrst place in every meet so far this year. FLASI-IY SPLASI-IEBS ALTHOUGH WORKING under the disadvantage of irregular turnouts, the junior high swimming team well deserves credit for developing future senior high stars. Since Highline had no swimming pool, the mermen found it necessary to practice at the Seattle Y.M.C.A., and the lack of transportation made it impossible to hold regular turnouts. An intramural schedule was necessary because there was no organized league in which Highline could participate. In three meets this season, the Babes won from Mt. Vernon, but lost to Aberdeen and Stadium of Tacoma. Among the outstanding swimmers on the squad were Gerald Street and Art Brengan. Gerald Street was team captain and top point attainer, while Art Brengan was a star in the individual medley event, which calls for back stroke, breast stroke, and free style swimming. The team possessed eight swimmers who received a suflicient number of points to obtain emblem awards. Hurley DeRoin acted as coach for the squad. Considering the disadvantages set before them, it was truly a successful season for several boys who were willing to work together. -lll' 0 I J Q W V E i 7 o L, is' 8 If I J P 0 I ,F ,Q a Q ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We of the 'kLog staff wish to express our appreciation to Mrs, Emma Hale and Mr. Arthur Herrick of the Seattle Printing and Publishing Company, to Mr. Boh Wright and Mr. Kenneth Miller of Western Engraving and Colortype Company, to Mr. Boh Parker of Parker Studios, and to the Highlinc photography class for thga' invaluable assistance in producing the 1950 edition of PIR,ATE's Loc.
