Class officers were elected, with Lois Kinney, President; Jerry Huddle, Vice-president; JoAnne Harshman, Secretary; and Mike Shaler, Treasurer. Our class was divided into three home room groups with Miss Gates, Mr. Hedlund, and Mr. Clark as advisers. The H to O gave a Junior High assembly. We also took part in the All- School Play. Highlight of our Freshman year was the Freshman-Sopho- more party given by the Sophomores. We started our second year of high school as Sophomores and were really in the swing of things by now. Six girls from our class were mem- bers of the Drill Team. We were represented in Glee Club with I I members and in Torch Honor Society with 16 members. Some of our class also took part in Band, Orchestra, and Flashlite. Evelyn Thompson became a majorette and JoAnne Harshman and Dolores Jackson be- came Vi-Queens. Four boys turned out for football. Our class had diminished in size to around 50 students with Mr. Bancroft as our adviser. We elected class officers: Allen Bartlett, President; Chuck Conrad, Vice-president; JoAnne Harshman, Secretary-Treasurer; and Cliff Gantt, Class Representative. We welcomed six new members to our class. These were Delpha Dunnington, Patty Yeaton, Duane Allen, Dorothea Best, Edna Cluphf and Viola Wells. We sponsored a few dances and skating parties. We also gave the annual Freshman-Sophomore party. Slowly our class was growing smaller, and when we enrolled as Juniors there were only 40 of us left. Mrs. Lundeen was our adviser. Class of- ficers were elected as follows: John Gilbert, President; Herman Kadyk, Vice-president; Delpha Dunnington, Secretary; JoAnne Harshman, Treas- urer; and Herman Kadyk, Class Representative. Lorraine Kalaquin and Herman Kadyk were enrolled as new members of the class. Our Prom was a great success. It was the highlight of our Junior year, despite other activities we sponsored. This year an assistant staff for the Flashlite was chosen to carry on work for next year. We sponsored some dances and movies to make money for the Prom. Lowell became a letterman in football and Allen became a letterman in basketball. Now as Seniors we are the boss of the school — well practically. It seems quite impossible that four short years ago we were all thrilled at the thought of attending High School. Now our high school days are over, but this last year has also been filled with sunny days. We elected class officers as follows: Evelyn Thompson, President; Lowell Posey, Vice- president; Verla Johnson, Secretary; Allen Bartlett, Treasurer; and Jo- Anne Harshman, Class Representative. In December we gave a semi-formal Senior Ball, the first of its kind for quite a few years in this school, but it proved very successful. We chose our Senior Play, entitled Johnny on The Spot, which was pre- sented on the evening of April 20. Mrs. Johnson was our Senior class adviser as well as the coach for the Senior Play. John Gilbert and Jerry Welborn joined the Navy at the close of their Junior year. JoAnne Harshman was Drill Team Captain and Jean Hubbard was Girls' Club president. Allen Bartlett was Student Body president for 1944-1945. Class Will The members of the class of 45, being of sound body and mind of debatable adequacy, do hereby and forthwith bequeath as our last will and testament, the following: Article I. To the faculty we leave our autographed examination papers, that in the years to come when we do not become famous and renowned, they may have the consolation of remembering that we might have been. Article II. To the Juniors, the full right to assume and use the title of Dignified Seniors. May they be as successful as the class of 1945. Article III. To the Sophomores we bequeath our energy and ambi- tion which allows us to be serious at least five minutes out of every day. Article IV. To the Freshmen we leave a kind word of advice and encouragement, and a friendly warning of the difficulties they will en- counter when they become Seniors. Article V. We, the individual members of the Senior Class of 45, do hereby bequeath the following: Viola Wells and Bill Peterson leave their role of Romeo and Juliet to Betty Forrest and Harold Brown. Dave Hisey leaves his height and intellectual abilities to Bill Hubbard. Marilyn Fulton wills her man to the Navy for the duration and six months. Jean Shay wills her belt of scalps to anyone who is big enough to take it away from her. Dorothy Welborn wills her gift of gab to Max Newman. Allen Bartlett wills his visit to the principal's office every morning for a late slip to John Cockburn. Milton Vogler leaves his Future Farmer standing with Red’’ Lundquist. Doris Erickson wills her quiet and reserved ways to Jackie Bushong and Pat Davidson. Millie Jolitz leaves her Hula-Hula abilities to anyone who would care to take lessons. JoAnne Harshman wills her way with the armed forces in general to any of the girls who are out gunning for a man. Lois Kinney gives Paul Parkins back to the Junior girls. Evelyn Thompson wills her brother to the Sophomore girls, but she reserves all rights to him for herself until after the war. Lowell Posey wills his energetic ways to Jack Madsen. Verla Johnson wills her constant giggle to Marian Rux. Jane Hisey wills her quiet ways in class to Dorothy Domholt. Shirley Bailey bequeaths her knack of keeping her romances a secret to Evelyn Neff. Helen Pratt leaves her heart with Stoop for safekeeping. Edna Fintz leaves her position as a successful and diligent office secre- tary to Yvonne Reardon. Roger Nelson leaves his grand personality to the Junior boys. George Green wills himself to the Navy for the duration. Margaret Hebert leaves her ability to keep her mind off her studies to Jean Taro. Jean Newman wills her long finger nails to Mr. Branner. Dolores Jackson wills her athletic ability to Cherie Mayes. Joyce Drake leaves her domestic ways to Joyce La Fond. Louise Thaanum leaves her bookkeeping grades with anyone who might need them in future years. Gloria Stribling bequeaths her job as Librarian to Marjorie Forbes. Edna Cluphf wills her job in the cafeteria to Barbara Dana. Jean Hubbard leaves her Girls' Club presidency to Nancy Manning. Luella Sherman wills her quiet and reserved ways with the male popula- tion to Evelyn Reddeman. Helen Zahler leaves her habit of chewing gum in classes to anyone who can get away with it. Astrid Nelson leaves Crrrrrocker behind. The Prophecy of the Class of 1945 As we enter the little town of Wetwater, which is apparently suf- fering from growing pains, we see a sign advertising the greatest show on earth, Vogler's Two Ring Circus.” Somehow the circus strikes our fancy and we follow the crowd to the tent grounds. We can't believe that such a gathering can be obtained from the fact that Milton Vogler's picture is on the billboard, and on further examination we read All women performers. Suddenly a voice is heard shouting, Get your tickets here, folks, get your tickets here. It seems familiar and then we recall, it's the booming voice of Roger Nelson, ace ticket seller. After buying our tickets and elbowing our way into the great arena, we see George Green in his popcorn stand trying to pop corn as fast as he can eat it. Say, isn't that Marilyn Fulton helping him? Yes, we are informed that she is the former Marilyn Fulton. After tripping over four seats and stumbling over as many legs and feet, we reach our desired spot which is, of course, the ringside The lights dim as there is a loud fanfare from the all-girl band, containing six members. We try to recognize their faces but we believe that they have masks on. But no, that can't be! There's Dolores Jackson on the big bass horn, or rather, there's the big bass horn on Dolores. Sitting be- side her and having a royal time poking the other members of the band with her trombone is Edna Cluphf. Well! Crrrrockerrr! !. If it isn't Astrid Nelson taking over the bass drum. At the front of the fray is Verla John- son, trying to outblast the rest of them, all by herself with her shiny little trumpet. In the second row back, Dorothy Welborn is deftly handling a piccolo. Someone tells us she plays that because she's so short winded. We suppress our laughter. Dorothy's co-worker in the same row is none other than Joyce Drake, having a whale of a time playing something that must be her own creation. As the fanfare ceases, a couple of clowns bounce past. That one bouncing on her head must be JoAnne Harshman, she doesn't seem to be hurt. Putting on our sunglasses we can now look at the other. That brilliant red hair is a dead give away. It's Millie Jolitz in spite of the mask. We heard that she was formerly the lady wrestler but that she had to give up this profession boc ause there were too many casualties among her opponents. Now the main show begins Here comes a tall, lanky fellow in a black silk hat. Oh, he's the masher of ceremonies and a hard one to recognize. By the looks of that four foot stride it must be Dave Hisey. It is. The crowd is hushed as Dave announces the first performance. You will now witness the greatest horse riding act in the country. Presenting Jean Shay and her intelligent white horse. That's Miss Shay on the right. We are spellbound by her astounding ability. Following this feat is the highwire act, featuring Jean Newman. As she mounts the platform at a dizzy height, we are afraid to look and so, turn away. Someone pokes us in the back and informs us that she isn't Jean Newman anymore. Now that's a fine time to bring up matrimony. When our hearts return to normal speed, Evelyn Thompson and her trained elephant are introduced. Say, which is the ele----oh, yes, Hi Ev.' And we wave a friendly wave in her direction. A tumbling team, composed of Jean Hubbard, Edna Fintz, Viola Wells, and Shirley Bailey, provides more than adequate entertainment as they build the Great Pyramid. Some wise guy behind us yells something about the Sphinx. The ushers misunderstand him and immediately throw him out. After order is restored, a big cage is pulled into the ring. In it is a ferocious looking animal—a lion. The fearless trainer who dares to enter the cage turns out to be Helen Pratt. The lion begins to act strangely. It look as if half of it wants to go ahead and the other half wants to go back. To our amazement, both halves go in opposite directions. Why that's Lowell Posey going backwards; his face has a frantic look on it at this unexpected turn of events. Lowell has changed his style of apparel. The last time we saw him he was a wolf in sheep's clothing. As the lion's mouth flies wide, we recognize Allen Bartlett. He's still growling and trying to act ferocious, he doesn't act as if he knows what's happening. Hasn't changed, has he? While the cage is rapidly pulled from the arena, a short intermission follows. Here come two more clowns with bright red spots on their costumes. As they form a wheelbarrow pose in front of us, we see that they are Lois Kinney, as the handles of the wheelbarrow, and Doris Erickson, supposedly doing the work. The clowns pass on and we gaze around the place. A flag waving from a pole in the middle of the tent catches our eye. We notice two stars on it with names after each. Why, there's John Gilbert's and Jerry Welborn's name on it. They must have been called from the circus. The show is resumed as Bill Peterson is introduced as the trainer of a great baton team. Immediately three girls prance by, twirling batons in both hands. In the lead is Gloria Stribling and as the spotlight gleams on her she throws the baton into the air. Gloria tries to catch it under her leg but it looks as if she dislocated something. After the stretcher bearers disappear, Louise Thaanum throws her baton up into the darkness. We wait in vain for it to come down. A new baton is rushed in. Next Margaret Hebert attempts to keep three batons twirling at once. She does nicely until some smart alec throws in a cane and gets her be- fuddled. There is a questioning look on our faces as the Tumultous Trio is introduced. What's this? Vaudeville in a circus? Jane Hisey, Luella Sherman and Helen Zahler come dancing in, singing some late tune that sounds like a revised edition of Rum and Coca-cola. The last one trips and they fall down like a row of dominoes. Regaining their feet, they ask everyone to join them in the National Anthem, which is the grand finale to our pleasant afternoon at the circus.

Grant us power to guard their health, education, recreation, and spirit- ual development and to make them strong in body, mind, and spirit. Teach us to love our neighbor, that our children may learn tolerance and that there may be peace among nations. Free us from fear, that our courage may make our homes a haven of security for those we love. Strengthen us to endure whatever hardship and sacrifice may come, and in Thy good time lift from us the burden of war. Fill our hearts with faith that to our loved ones in service Thou wilt be a refuge; to our flag, a promise; to our country, a fortress. Consecrate us to our tasks, and bless us that we may bless all children everywhere. Contributed by the Lake Stevens Parent-Teacher Association.
