History of the Class of 47 In September of ’43, we, the Class of ’47, began our arduous climb upward toward our goal—graduation! Our class was then made up of forty-four members. The officers for that year were President, Samnn Jacobson; Vice President, Joe Hadsell; Secretary, Bob Lundquist, and Treasurer, Marilyn Fredrikson. Bob Lundquist was the Student Body President. Seven girls from our class were in Drill Team, two boys in the Senior High Orchestra, and twelve giris and one boy in Glee Club Miss French was our advisor. We edited and published the junior high paper, “The Junior Beacon,’’ under her direction. 1 he Frosh F. F. A. boys gave an assembly for the purpose of promoting the sale of War Stamps and Bonds. As Sophomores, our class, being made up of forty members, had as our officers: President, Joe Hadsell; Vice President, Lealand Easterly; Secre- tary, Marilyn Fredrikson, and Council Representative, Lorraine Adams. The most important event of the year u'as the Freshmen-Sophomore party. Our class was represented in the F. F. A. by ten boys, fifteen of us were in Torch, four girls were in Glee Club and two boys, Joe Hadsell and Delbert Griffin were in orchestra. Five Sophomore girls were in Drill Team, and Dolores Granger was a Majorette. Nine girls were Vi-Queens. and seven boys were Lettermen. Our J unior class, having somewhat dwindled away, had only thirty three members. From these we elected Bob Lundquist, President; Lyle Zahler, Vice President; Lealand Easterly, Secretary-Treasurer, and John Shaffer, Council Representative. Most important to us this year was the Junior Prom. The theme was “Under Water,’ and with Lois Cooper and Fred Cushman as chair- men, it was a very successful event. Mr. Branner was our very helpful advisor. That year we sponsored a “Snowball Dance” and the profits benefitted the annual. Our final year in high school was very busy. Very important to us was our play, “Eager Beavers.” Joe Hadsell was Student Body President and Louise Johnson was Student Body Treasurer. Our class officers were Fred Cushman, President; Lealand Easterly, Vice President; Flora Kirby, Secretary; Dorothy Dearie. Treasurer; John Shaffer, Council Representa- tive. Joe Hadsell was also the editor of the annual. Mrs. Johnson was class advisor. At the end of the first semester John Shaffer, Lealand Easterly, and Junious Hagglund graduated. John and Lealand went to Junior College in Everett, and Junious Hagglund went to work on the Black Ball Fern- line. And they all lived happily ever after!
