flu+UOAA We, the Juniors of '48 admit that we ran the school during the 1947-48 school year, although, the seniors, for some reason or other, whole-heartedly disagree. We elected at our first class meeting the following: President ............................................................... Ted Graves Vice President ....................................................... Gene Hungar Secretary .................................................................... Betty Lundgren Treasurer ......................................................... Vivian McDaniel Council Representative .................................................Don Worlund Assistant Pilchuck Editor.................................................Don Silcox Assistant Pilchuck Business Manager...........................................Yvonne Nelson Two new pupils welcomed into the junior class this year were LaVerne Little from Snohomish, and Ken Nickell from Queen Anne High, Seattle. The biggest social event of the year was put on, of course, by our class. To raise money for this special event, the Junior Prom, we sold ice cream bars at basketball games. On November 10, with Jeanne Bolding acting as chairman, we presented an Armistice Day Program. Four days later, November 14, we sponsored a sock-dance at which the winner of our candy raffle was an- nounced. We were well represented in Torch, having 14 students in this Honor Society. In fact, the vice presi- dent, secretary, and treasurer of this exclusive organization were members of our class. Several junior boys turned out for all three major sports — football, basketball, and baseball — and five junior girls earned their letters and were initiated into the Vi-Queens. SofditunoAeA We started our second year in high school with 58 students, but by the end of the year this num- ber had dwindled to 53. Not unusual but practical, at our first class meeting we elected class officers. Harry Chick ...............................................................President James Larsen ........................................................Vice President Wayne Rodland ............................................................ Secretary Connie Johnson ........................................................... Treasurer Rex Taylor...........................................Student Council Representative Due to our big heartedness, and to uphold tradition, we gave the freshmen a light initiation on October 17. Audrey Nichols, Rex Taylor, Joanne Quarnstrom, Don Pardee, Joyce Lundberg, Charles Lind- gren, and Don Stribling—as a committee—worked hard to promote this party which was so enjoyed by all who attended. On January 28, we gave an assembly for the high school student body. Three short plays, 'Shave and a Permanent ‘ Pyramus and Thisbe, and Slightly Exaggerated were presented. Joanne Quarn- strom gave a monologue entitled His First Date, and Don Pardee ended the program with his rendition of The Cremation of Sam McGee. We sponsored a dance on November 26, Thanksgiving vacation, called the Turkey Hop, ' to raise funds for our Junior Prom. Two members of our class—Harry Chick, tackle and Wayne Rodland, guard—won their letters in football last fall; and during the year, six sophomore girls earned their letter in athletics and were initiated into the Letter-Girls ' Vi-Queen organization. As there are only 14 Letter-Girls in high school we feel quite proud that six of them are from our class. To account for the brightness of our class picture, we had 10 members with a high scholastic aver- age who were in the Torch Honor Society. fyn Uun n Shortly after school began the Freshman initiation took place. Initiation was followed by refreshments, and dancing concluded an evening of fun. The different members of our class immediately entered into a variety of activities. Six freshmen boys were on the Junior High basketball team. Patsy Legg, Jim Hubbard and Sidney Strassburg repre- sented the Junior High on the radio show, which Lake Stevens High School presented. Audrey Honey- cutt and Barbara Peterson possessed exceptional tummbling skill which enabled them to be on the select tumbling team of six girls, who won second place in the Balboa Theatre Talent Show. Patsy Legg was chosen as the ninth grade representative to the Snohomish County Red Cross meeting. The Junior High paper, The Junior Beacon, was published twice monthly by a staff which consisted almost entirely of freshmen. The editor was Jim Hubbard. 15
