In Memoriam crv 9 HOWARD JUBB GILBERT KENNAUGH DON McLEAN MIKE SHALER VERNON LAWRENCE EDGAR DAKE CHARLES BAGLEY Supreme Sacrifice in defense of their Class History The year 1934 was quite eventful. John Dillinger, the famous outlaw was captured, Germany signed a non-aggression pact with Poland, the German people approved the consolidation of the offices of president and Chan- cellor in a single Leader-Chancellor, Adolf Hitler, and the class of '46 began school. Some of us began at the White School, Glenwood, Hartford and East Sunnyside, while a few of us started school in various places throughout the country. Our grade school years passed swiftly, then in 1942 we merged together into a large Freshman class, totaling forty-seven, with Miss French as our adviser. We were divided into three Home Rooms; Home Economics, General Science, and F.F.A. The girls elected as their officers first semester: President—Barbara Ness, Vice President—Norma Jean Crossland, Secre- tary—Pat Davidson, and Treasurer—Nancy Manning. Officers for the second semester were: President—Norma Jean Crossland, Vice President—Nancy Manning, Sec- retary—Barbara Ness, and Treasurer—Barbara Dana. The General Science Home Room elected: President—Don Hallanger, Vice President—John Cockburn, Secretary- Treasurer—Kenny Williams. The F.F.A. did not elect any officers as they decided their activities took too much of their time. We edited the Junior Beacon for the third year, with John Cockburn as editor; Barbara Ness, assistant editor,- and Pat Davidson, business manager. During our Freshman year, we gave one dance which we called The Freshman Ball. It was held in the gym after school. Thirty-seven students made up our sophomore class and we elected John Cockburn, President; Bill Hubbard, Vice President; Pat Davidson, Secretary; Barbara Ness, treasurer; and Jackie Bushong, council representative. We sponsored two dances that year and the Freshman-Sophomore party. Mr. Bancroft was our adviser. Ten members of our class were in Torch. Perhaps one of the best years of our lives was our Junior year. The boys swung the election for class officers. The officers were as follows: President—Victor Johnson, Vice President—Bill Hubbard, Secretary—Paul Parkins, Treasurer—Kenny Williams, and the Council Representative was Barbara Dana. Viola Dailey entered our class from Ballard High in Seattle and we lost Jim Jubb to the Navy. ■ . J The Junior Prom, of course, was the biggest event of the year. Our chair- men were: General Chairmen—Barbara Dana and Kenny Williams, Decorations— Jackie Bushcng, Refreshments—Jean Taro, Music-Dorothy Domholt and John Cockburn, Intermission—Nancy Manning, and Advertising—Barbcra Ness. Our theme was an old South scene with flowers, a southern mansion, darkies picking cotton, a moonlight scene with a romantic boy and girl in the center and a huge magnolia tree in the background. Wally Erfert's Orchestra furnished the music for our dancing from 8:00 to 11:45 p.m. We sponsored quite a few successful dances in our Junior year. Maybe one to be remembered almost as long as the Prom is the Barn Dance, at which the Roaring Four made their debut. As Seniors, we elected Bill Hubbard, President; Evelyn Reddeman, Vice President; Maryanne Blem, Secretary; Mabel Gustafson, Treasurer,- Paul Par- kins, Council Representative; and Henry Neys, Sergeant-at-arms. Four new students entered our class: Ruth Wood from Darrington, Henry Neys from Alberta, Canada, Irene Sullivan from Morton, and Alvin Thomp- son from Burlington. Jack and Jim Sahlbom entered our class after serving in the Marine Corps, but graduated early. 3 3 Class Will We, the class of 1946, of Lake Stevens High School, city of Lake Stevens, county of Snohomish, state of bewilderment, or rather Washington; being of sound mind and good memory, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament. ARTICLE I To the faculty; we leave our heartfelt thanks for their willing assistance and the hope that they will remember only our good points. ARTICLE II To the Juniors: we leave the right and honor of being Seniors. We wish them as merry a last year as we had. ARTICLE III To the Sophomores: we leave the privilege of being upperclassmen, and a better opportunity of carrying out many of their good ideas. ARTICLE IV To the Freshmen: we leave a parental word of advice: Dahhh! ARTICLE V To the individuals of this noblest institution: Margaret Ohm wills her ability to be unnoticed to Marianne Rux. Naomi Lyman, her artistic abilities to her younger sisters, Ruth and Cora. It seems to run in the family. Viola Dailey wills the art of getting her man to Fern Shepherd. Jean Taro, her bookkeeping ability to Louise Johnson. Alvin Thompson, his studious habits to Bud Newman. Ethel Makus, her modest personality to Don Hart. Patsy Davidson adds her set of man traps to those of Laverta Reddeman. Dorothy Domholt wills her gum-popping ability to Harold Brown. Dayle Langdon, his quick turn-over in used jalopies to Lee Wicklund. Melvin Andrews, his pull with the draft board to Lyle Zahler. Dean Scott, his Ford to anybody who is willing to learn the intricacies of a V-8 and put in the required time to keep it running. Paul Parkins wills his silent ways to Bob Lundquist. Barbara Ness leaves her daily drive from Everett and back to some other loyal student. Jack Maltsberger wills his influence with the teachers to Bud Stribling. Irene Sullivan, her great big beautiful eyes to Leland Easterly. Ruth Wood, her basketball abilities to Sophie Woyach. Henry Neys donates fifty pounds to Dean Hegge in the hope that Dean will have better use for it than he. Mildred Rice leaves her exhausting journey to school in the morning to Howard Espeseth. Ethel Wilbur leaves her standing of Virtuoso of the violin to Betty Lund- gren. Jack Madsen, his title as the Good Humor Man to Joe Hadsell. Piatt Shewmaker wills his collection of past-due make-up slips to Don Larson. Jack and Jim Sahlbom take with them the title of the only identical twins in school. Barbara Dana leaves her managing abilities to Mona Anderson. Mabel Gustafson wills her beautiful hair to Arabel Hisey. Kenneth Williams, his twitter and sunny outlook on life to Fred Cushman. Nancy Manning, her clear, ringing voice to Carla Lindgren. Bill Hubbard, his deep baritone voice to Bert Ronnestad. Evelyn Reddeman leaves her charming blush to Rita Gantt. Maryanne Blem her winning smile to Lucille Kinney. Jackie Bushong wills her ability to go steady to Betty Forrest. John Cockburn leaves his ability to play musical horns to Bobby Crook. Prophecy ’46 (TV 5 I think that I shall never see a class more versatile than we. We're scat- tered now, since '46; into the walks of life we've mixed. Let's take a trip, all of us, with Henry on his bicycle-bus. He's very generous—says he'll foot the bill, for our excursion through Maltsbergerville. The founder and mayor of this town is Jack, and he's really keen; and as we expected back in '46, he married his girl friend, Jean. We start on our journey minus worry or care, but soon we discover the tires need air. We stop at a station—the best the town's got, and who should be owner— none other than Dean Scott. We chat for a while, as old friends will, when out comes Vi Dailey to collect the bill. Well, what do you know? Does she work here too? I heard she was bookkeeper at the town zoo. We're off like the wind, down Shewmaker Street, named for the man whose shop can't be beat. His assistant and wife makes shoemaking fun; she's still that blonde bombshell, Ev Reddeman. We have our shoes fixed, then start out the shop, but what we see next door makes our eyes pop! A beauty parlor run by Melvin Andrews; let's take a run in and learn some more news. He's owner and manager of this fine place; he fixes your hair and uplifts your face. His able assistants are the Sahlbom twins, who have the good job of picking up pins. While we're standing there chatting, the door opens wide, and the world's richest woman steps inside. Naomi Lyman is her name, by painting she has gained her fame. Her confidential secretary, who made her someone, ac- companies her in—it's Mabel Gustafson. Nan hasn't forgotten us, she bids us hello, even gives us free tickets to a world famous show. It's playing in town this very night; just look at the billing, can this be right? Miss Jackie Bushong, well-known opera star (Scott is really her name, but you know how actresses are.) Pat Davidson will accompany her,- she likewise has won fame and Pat will play a solo in the boogie woogie vein. Promising to go and saying good-bye to all, we leave the beauty parlor as we hear our chauffeur call. We hop in the bus and go down the avenue. We see over on the side- walk a streak of Navy blue. It's three eager sailors, really on the go, on their way to join the fun at Dana's U. S. O. So that's what Barbara's doing now? Will she ever learn? Look, one of those gobs is John Cockburnl His two companions, always with him without fail, are Paul Parkins and that beloved Dayle. Henry slams on the brakes and we stop for a chat; they tell us they're wealthy, and sailors at thatl Oh, they're waiting for a discharge, and we soon learn, that Paul is the owner of a large concern, a factory with parts in array, for that famous car—the Chevrolet. John has a bank and a cold storage too; both professions he really knew! Dayle is the owner of that famous chain—Langdon's Drug Stores is the name. 3 i i J Standing there talking, we spy another beauty shop; and lounging in front is a traffic cop. He seems to be bashful, even turns his back, but we see it's Sergeant Madsen, whom we all know as Jack. Two beauty parlors —what's this one called? Ye Fashione Shoppe by Dorothy Domholt. We dash right in this snazzy place, and learn she does other things besides fix your face. She has a little class to make yellleaders good, accompanied by Ethel Wilbur and Ruth Wood. After watching them awhile as they go through their paces, we start out again for unknown places. We drive by a restaurant—a re-converted home, managed by that famous cook, Margaret Ohm. A doorman stands in front with his uniform on and we recognize him as Alvin Thompson. Next door is a business college owned by Clem. He is the husband of Maryanne Blem. She manages and teaches, and is a good wife too; and because of her efficiency, the business college grew. Lo! and behold! With the greatest of ease, we see Mildred Rice on a flying trapeze! What in the world? Oh, there's a circus in town. Let's get out of the bus, and call Mickey down. We have a talk after getting out then out steps a barker, big and stout. He shouts and sputters as barkers will; well, if it isn't Hubbard remember Bill-? Directly behind him is that dancer, Zharsteenee,- back at Lake Stevens we called her Renie. Outside a cab driver asks where can she take us,- our eyes fairly bulge as we recognize Ethel Makus. No thanks, we assure her, we're now on a bus. Soon we convince her to come along with us. We drive for awhile in this beautiful city, and notice a cottage very pretty. We inquire around and soon we discover; it is Nancy and Kenny's, the two great lovers. That about takes care of Maltsbergerville, so this prophecy must end, and end it I will. Except to say the information for this mess was gathered through the Credit Bureau, run by Barbara Ness.

With Mr. Brownell as their adviser, the Flashlite Staff published the school paper semi-monthly.

Perhaps one of the highlights of the year was the trip the class took to visit the radio station and the newspaper office in Everett.

Team two was Dorothy Domholt, Evelyn Reddeman, and Marilyn Fredrickson. Team two won and was headed by Dorothy Domholt, who was leading yells for the second year. Tumbling Team After seeing some tumbling pictures Mrs. Martina had, the girls were amazed and immediately began to inquire as to how the stunts were per- formed. Some girls tried and gave up, some kept on—getting bumps and more bumps, but always coming back for more. The outcome of this is a team of five girls: Ruth Wood, Peggy Gordon, Dolores Lundberg, Dolores Granger and Irene Grimm. These girls, with the aid of Mrs. Martina, worked out routines and per- formed at a few basketball games and assemblies. Senior Play The Senior Class Play, A Little Honey was presented on April 26, 1946, under the able direction of Mrs. H. Bryan Johnson.
