About sixty of us enrolled and after much confusion and many mistakes, we finally found our classes. Our class officers were elected as follows: President, Lynn Cockburn; Vice Presi- dent, Laurel McDaniel; Treasurer, Rosa Jensen; Secretary, Vivian Armstrong. Miss Adams was our adviser for the year. One of the outstanding activities of the year was the interest of both boys and girls in the class basketball teams. Those taking part in the All-School Play for that year were Erline Kimbel and Bill Pardee. Also, about fifty per cent of the students on the Honor Roll for the year were Freshmen. For our Sophomore year, the following were elected as our officers: President, Bill Pardee; Vice President, Nadine Meyers; Secretary-Treasurer, Jack Robinette. Miss Parrott was our adviser. Of the thirty-two members in the Torch Honor Society, seventeen were Sopho- mores. This year our class was well represented in the band, the orchestra, the glee club, the All-School Play, and three boys earned letters in football. Welcomed to our class were Edna Cooper and Bill Flyg, both of whom have served us well and are surely a benefit to us. Those leading our class for the school year of 1938 and '39, our Junior year, were: I resident, Albert Anderson: Vice President, Allen Backstrom; Secretary-Treasurer, Bert Backstrom; Council Representative, Lynn Cockburn. The Torch Honor Society had the membership of twelve of our class. Junior activities include the well known Junior Prom. We were very enthusiastic about it, for in the past there had been some difficulty in making it a success. So we proceeded to make plans for our scenery, choosing an oriental type to work on. We were very pleased with the final results of the gymnasium after its transformation into a strictly oriental scene. Mr. Bus Rily served us with very good music. Another outstanding event of the year was the Hallowe'en party held in Charles Haight's barn. Many attended and a great time was enjoyed by all. At this time the Letter Girls’ Association was getting a good start and several girls from our class were eligible for membership. Three of our boys took part in the All-School Play. The executive committee of our Senior Class is: President, Victor Posey; Vice President, Jack Robinette; Secretary-Treasurer, Helen Grinde; Student Council Repre- sentative, Lynn Cockburn. Four members of the Senior Class were represented in the High School Leaders’ Conference in Seattle. They were: Vivian Armstrong, Norma Treen, Lynn Cockburn and Wesley Smith. Those members of the Senior Class holding Student Body offices are: President, Gordon Loth; Secretary, Vivian Armstrong; Treasurer, Nina Nourse. We have chosen caps and gowns for our graduation attire. This will be the first time for many years that they have been used in Lake Stevens. The honored Com- mencement speakers are Norma Treen and Wesley Smith and Mr. J. A. Reeves, Superintendent of Everett Schools. The six students earning highest scholastic points for the class are: Vivian Arm- strong, Allen Backstrom, Bert Backstrom, Bill Flyg, Nina Nourse, and Douglas Ruth- ford. ■ ■ u u CLASS WiLL We, the class of 1940, of Lake Stevens High School, in the city of Lake Stevens, in the County of Snohomish, State of Washington, being of sound mind and of good memory, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testament. ARTICLE I. Section 1.—To the Teachers: Our sincere thanks and gratitude for your offered right hand during our four years of high school. It was deeply appreciated, even if we did forget which was right and which was “wrong. ARTICLE II. To the Classes: To the Junior Class we leave the highest honor—being a Senior, so respect that honor by behaving not like Seniors, but like young ladies and gentlemen. To the Sophomore Class—A word of advice, lest you forget that you are soon to become Juniors: Do not fail to uphold the dignity of the Junior Class. To the Freshman Class—You have just scaled the first hill of your educational journey. Completing your work in Senior High School will seem like a mountain to you, but it is just another step from the hill, you come to the mountain after you graduate. ARTICLE III.

Signed; —SENIORS OF 1940. ■ ' ■ SENIOR PROPHECY And so you see, my fellow lodge members, what we need is more “Freedom”—. On and on went the words that were gradually losing all shape, for I seemed to be car- ried through thin air, while the unbearable roar of machinery was coming closer and closer. It seemed as if my head would burst from the vibrations, when out of the vast nowhere, 1 heard someone calling my name. Yes! it was my name. The machinery ceased its roar when the “unknown spoke. This seemed odd; where am I? Where am I going? Here I am sitting on nothing, with nothing in sight but the unending grey vastness. I answered the voice which called my name, only to receive a command. “Go, he said, “go to the 'City of Freedom’! How could I go anywhere, when I didn't even have a cloud to sit on! No sooner had I thought this than I began to move —floating to The City, I presumed. It seemed days before my eyes met with an object. But look! Is that a city? No, probably my eyes were playing tricks on me, it was more than likely just a mirage— No! it is a City—one like I’d never seen before, and what odd buildings. You are now approaching your destination, 'the City of Freedom’,” spoke the voice, which seemed closer. Then, before me, rose a tall man with a very familiar face. I have come to escort you through our city,” he said. That voice was vaguely familiar, yes, of course—it was Charles Haight. “I am the president here and it honors me to show you what progress our city has made since the downfall of the world in “1940 —ten years ago. He then gave a signal and a large limousine drove up before us, driven by Bill Taylor. Our first stop was a large building with big letters spelling “Cockburn’s Hospital. I later learned that the famous Doctor Finley was practicing there. While wandering through the halls, we met the head nurse, Miss Finley, and nurses Inez Samson, and Jean Smith, also of noted ability. On leaving the hospital I met the very attractive telephone girl, Nadine Meyer. n Back to our car we went and while driving along the street I noticed a large sign announcing the appearance of two famous singers, Miss Lucille Tastad, European Nightingale, and Miss Vivian Armstrong, American Songstress. “I mustn't miss this,” I told Mr. Haight. In the next block the car stopped in front of the famous Williams Funeral Par- lor. “His daughter, Verlyn, is said to make a person more attractive after death than before. You've probably heard of the famous ‘Verlyn the Embalmcr.’ She gets the best quality of trade here. It was a magnificent parlor. It was nearly luncheon time so we proceeded to the “High Spot.” I was surely glad to know food was the next stop. We were met at the curb by the popular Mr. Claire Brooks, the man who never takes a tip. He escorted us to a table that was called the President's Special.” A very beautiful waitress took our orders. When I looked up I was looking into the big brown eyes of Thelma Williams. Our orders came and there was no hesitation as to what I would do with mine. While eating we were entertained by the noted Miss Margaret Carr and Mr. Fred Andrews, the sec- ond Eleanor Powell and Fred Astaire. The performance was the best I had ever wit- nessed. After the dancing, aided by our well-known “Corncy” Johnson and his 35- piece orchestra, we were further entertained by Donella Hagenston's enchanting con- tralto voice. I noticed Roy Grubb had a prominent place as trombone player in the orchestra. We finished eating and went to finish the tour of “The City of Freedom. Mr. Haight had to stop at his “blue house to secure some important drawings he had O. K.'d and was returning to the Akers Airport. We entered his mansion and were escorted to his office by Cecil Neely. Upon entering his office I was introduced to his most efficient secretary. Miss Edna Cooper. I complimented him on his excellent taste. When we reached the airport, I was amazed at the sight I beheld! They told me that Harry Bourcier and Ralph Lemmon were the draftsmen. Then I was honored by the acquaintance of Mr. Clyde Akers, the owner of the airport. He took us to his office where Nina Nourse, his secretary, called in the engineers. Bill Flyg, Bill Nelson, and Douglas Ruthford, who discussed the plans of a new model. While they con- versed, I wandered out to the field, where a large transport had just landed. There I saw the noted Backstrom twins, (Wizards of I. Q.’s) and Jack Robinett (Stinky), famous baseball pitcher; Joe Smith (Comedian of all ages), and his troupe composed of Betty Mobius, dramatist; Gerald Palmer, Joe's right-hand, and Lloyd Anderson, the unforgctable imitator, descending from the plane. The pilot was none other than Mr. Albert Anderson. His co-pilot was Mr. Gordon Loth, and his stewardess (the never-out-of-your-mind) Miss Norma Treen. Another pilot I met during the course of my explorations was Vic. Posey, Mr. Akers' favorite pilot. The last one I saw upon the field was the well-honored Miss Leona Thompson, the only aviatrix of the airport. Before I could venture further I was met by the President on his way home. We passed a girls' school governed by Miss Florence Espeseth, who never loses a pupil. We also passed the luxurious home of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Smith, the Mrs. being the former Helen Grinde, one of the leading socialists in the “City of Freedom. Mr. Smith is rolling in money as he is the one and only owner of the Smithque News, the paper issued to all citizens. When we reached his home we were received by the butler, Sir Norman Aasen, who took us to the parlor where I met Mr. Haight's only son, the play boy of Freedom City,” Master Tuver Scharzmiller Haight. It was dinner time and we dressed for dinner, assisted by Cliff Waters, and sat down to a delicious feast set before us by Grace Thompson. After eating, we relaxed and spent a cozy evening by the fireplace and turned on the Pardee Miracle radio, manufactured by the William Pardee Manufacturing Co. I was startled to hear the voice of Durward Sayre, a famous announcer, who had just introduced to the radio audience the lullaby singer, Miss Laurel McDaniel. After her enthralling song, we were introduced to the Miss Juanita Tupper, actress from Hollywood. I was just beginning to be well entertained, when,—Freedom!—The end- ing word of the lodge speaker echoed in my ears, bringing me suddenly back to realiza- tion. I sat benumbed but was hurried out of the lodge by the janitor. Bob Vaughan, and next I was sleeping peacefully in my little bed back home in Lake Stevens in the year of 1940. JUNIORS The class of '41 immediately swung into the school spirit last fall with the election of class officers: President, Harvey Moyer; Vice President, Dan Ruthford; Secretary and Treasurer, Betty Colton. A new and different activity was introduced in the L. S. H. S. this year, a series of noon dances, which has turned out very successfully. A special radio-phonograph was purchased to furnish the music. The dancing was supervised by the class ad- visers. The purpose of the dancing was to teach those not knowing how, to dance. The Junior Prom was probably the most important event of the year. After many weeks of hard work preparing the gym for this event, the Juniors were very much pleased with the results. Those who attended the Prom will certainly remember the beautiful Alaskan scenery that so cleverly decorated the gym. Mr. Rowell Paine and his orchestra delivered their enchanting music from the stage, which was made to sig- nify an ice cave. Refreshments were served from an igloo, thus creating a truly Alaskan atmosphere. SOPHOMORES The Sophomore class this year consists of about forty pupils. At the first class meeting, Lcland Johnson was elected President, Wayne Kinnee, Vice President, and Doney Balmer, Secretary. During activity period on Monday and Wednesday, the class is divided into two groups; one group under Miss Sylliaasen and the other group under Mr. Martina. During these activity periods, the groups learn about parliamentary law. Some of the meetings were carried on in the form of debate, which was very interesting. This year has been marked with a number of parties for the Sophomore class. Outstanding among these was the Freshman-Sophomore party, which was held in the band building. There were games and dancing and a lunch was served about nine o’clock. A number of Sophomore boys are outstanding in the field of sports and the class is well represented in the Torch Honor Society. FRESHMEN The Freshman class of 1940, numbering seventy pupils, is the largest class that has ever been enrolled in the school. At the beginning of the school year Bill Kleisath was elected President, Frances Kleisath, Vice President, Iva Rider, Secretary, and Irene Wahl, Treasurer. Owing to the large class the pupils are divided into three home rooms. The ad- visers are Mrs. Lawrence, Mr. Clark, and Mr. Hedlund. The Freshmen have had several parties. The first being a party given by the Sophomores. Later, we gathered for a Christmas party, a Valentine party, and a Fare- well party for our Secretary.

BASKETBALL After many gallons of perspiration had been exuded from the pores of our players, we won the “B League championship this year for the second year in succession. Next to Granite Falls, our favorite rivals seemed to be Skykomish. The sweetest victory that we “tasted this year was earned when we sneaked the championship away from Sky- komish, who, as did everyone else, thought that they had the championship “in the hag.” The team for next year looks very promising, as many of the good players are not Seniors. Lake Stevens won by one point in the play-off with Skykomish for the champion- ship. A total of 338 points were scored to the opponents’ 256 for the season's play. The tournament resulted in the following record: Lake Stevens 27 Snohomish 46 Lake Stevens 31 Granite Falls 21 Lake Stevens 28 Skykomish 30 There are not words of praise powerful enough to express our gratitude to Coach Martina, not only for his excellent coaching of all the Senior High sports, but for the warm companionship he has given the boys during their high school years. He wel- comed us and helped us when we were green Freshmen and he is now a sincere, trust- worthy friend, one whom we can never forget. Nor can we ever pay hack our huge debt for all that he has done for us, as a coach, as a teacher, and as a friend. FOOTBALL After many hard fought battles in football this year, we ended the season in third place, although we won as many games as any other school in the league. There was an unusually large turnout this year which produced several promising players for the future. Although seven lettermen were lost, we should have a fairly good team next year. We were unfortunate this year in having our season marred by several serious injuries. We again won the big Armistice Day game with our friendly rivals, Gran'te Falls High. This 2 to 0 score indicates the muddy, wet field encountered that day, holding back Robinette and Posey from open field gains. Our Captain, Gordon Loth, deserves all the praise in the world for his play this year as well as his other three years for the Vikings. Like all of our previous captains, he has what it takes. Lynn Cockburn is to be commended on his help this year. Al- bert Anderson was the hard luck boy after two years of playing. A sprained ankle kept him down. Clyde Akers, who was a very promising player, had the misfortune of injuring his knee in his second season and was not able to play for the rest of his high school days. Joe Smith faithfully held the most important position on the team, center, in every game of this season. EXITS BARTLETT, CARL WILLIAM...... BLAINE, KENNETH THEODORE.... BOND, HARRY LYLE............

PROGRAMS This was the first year that a Dramatics class has been offered in this school. It was new to all of us and proved very interesting. The class is offered only to seniors and was under the instruction of Miss Johnston. During the semester two productions were given, How Many Miles to Christmas” and The Youngest. These were given for the student body and public. Several short plays and skits were given for the benefit of the class. Other subjects that were taken up were: Making signs, the art of make-up, and the making of scenery for plays. Program Schedule The program schedule for the year was as follows: September 27......................................................A Magician Show October 6............................................A Senior class benefit dance November 3.............................

Program May 11...................................................... County Music Festival BAND, ORCHESTRA, GLEE CLUBS AND DRILL The band, orchestra, glee clubs and drill team take an important part in civic and school life. The band, under Mr. Clifford, has grown and improved over previous years. It lost some seniors last year, but the new members made up for the loss and even enlarged. Some of the events the band participated in during the year were: The Armistice Day program, the P.-T. A. meetings at East Sunnyside, the Junior Hi Review, a pro- gram at the South Lake Stevens Grange and most of the home basketball games. At an assembly the band introduced the new Lake Stevens Fight Song “Viking Victory, written by Cecil Johnson. The big day of the year for the band came when it played at the Spring Music Concert. Miss Sylliaasen, one of the new teachers of the school, directed the orchestra this year. With new members and new music, it was enlarged and improved. A new cello was purchased and two girls are learning to play it. The orchestra took part in the All School Revue, the Senior Play, and ended an interesting and successful year by participating in the Spring Music Concert. The boys and girls glee clubs and chorus, made up of the combined groups, were also under Miss Sylliaasen's direction. The girls' glee club sang at the Grange Bazaar, the Mothers' and Daughters' Tea and at several assembly programs. The Spring Con- cert ended their activities for the year. The boys' glee club, a new organization this year, took an active part in school affairs. They put on a vodvil for assembly consisting of singing and variety numbers, and also put on a minstrel act in the All School Revue. The climax of the year's work was also their participation in the Spring Concert. The drill team, which is one of the main functions of the band division of ac- tivities, has been very active, considering the small amount of time set aside for practice and the previous experience of the girls taking part. Assisting the band and drill are three Majorettes: Doney Balmer, Margaret Carr, and Norma Treen. Performances were given for basketball games and to several outside functions. Also, we are expecting to give added performances during the summer to come. This, the first year of Agricultural interests, has been highly successful. The classes have found it a great pleasure, rather than a lesson, to do their best. Activities of the class throughout the year are: 1. Judging of cattle at Carnation. 2. First prize winners for cattle judging at the Western Washington Fair at Puyallup. Seventy schools participated in this event. 3. Potato judging. 4. Judging of grasses and seeds. 5. A trip to Oregon to the International Stock Show. 6. Father and Son Banquet. 7. A basketball team was also organized which turned out to be undefeated. Torch Honor Society The first meeting of the Torch Honor Society was held on October 26, 1939. The officers elected were: Bill Flyg, President; Jim Mitchell, Vice President; and Dan Ness, Secretary. The following were eligible for pins: SENIORS—Torch Pins Vivian Armstrong Bill Nelson Claire Brooks Nina Nourse Florence Espeseth Douglas Ruthford Bill Flyg Thelma Williams JUNIORS—Two Bars Marguerite Becker Donald Melchoir Jean Dake Dan Ness Betty Hansen Helen Yonlick Alice Jacobsen SOPHOMORES—One Bar Shirley Armstrong Elsie Nygren Lois Elsbree Jean Pellerin Wallace Erickson Virgil Pruchs Kenneth Espeseth Bonnie Ruthford Arthur Makus June Taylor James Mitchell Helen Williams Lillian Nelson Doris Wolf T J Home Economics The Lake Stevens High School is proud of its Home Economics department, which is under the supervision of the State Vocational department. Therefore, there has been added a great deal of new equipment and facilities to train girls (and boys) for general home living and home making. Lake Stevens has fallen in line with the new movement in progress and adopted the unit kitchens for the new laboratory. The girls cook in groups of four and pre- pare a whole recipe instead of a small fraction of it. Among the many important items of study, we have food preparation, meal planning (balanced diets), child care, clothing design and construction, home manage- ment, and home nursing. 1 A We Have 1 MODERN EQUIPMENT rl To Service Your Car =-00-= Modern automobile service requires scientific machinery, equipment, and instruments.
