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.

■ . 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
