In November the club commemorated National F.H.A. Week for the first time. Each day was devoted to one particular activity. The faculty was served coffee and given a red rose as a symbol of the club's flower and for the pleasure of the students and children a special assembly, a kiddies program, an orphan party and a dance was arranged. In the spring the F.H.A. invited the F.F.A. to a box social which was held in the old gym. The formal initiation proved to be quite successful for many new girls were sworn in as permanent members of the Lake Stevens Chapter of F.H.A. Back Row: M. Leifer, P. Bond, M. Casey, V. Jones, B.

The members were very successful in fairs and shows this year, being judged best chapter to exhibit at the Evergreen State Fair and having the most champions of any chapter at the Washington State Dairy Show at Puyallup. Members also exhibited at the Northwest Junior Livestock Show at Auburn and at the local Spring Show. A highly successful judging year in all areas was enjoyed by the chapter with many banners won and with several high boys during the year. All teams placed in the top 1 3 in each contest. The Chapter had a strong leadership program with a very good Parliamen- tary procedure team and two fine public speakers in contests this year. Lake Stevens Future Farmers also were strong Scholarship candidates. State Farm- er Candidates and special award candidates. The balance of the accomplishments should place Lake Stevens in a strong contending position in the state Best Chapter contest for 1955.

SENIOR PLAY Left to Right: Ray Crowley, Barbara Benrhien, Mari- lyn West, Jack Hein, Rosetta Butler. The Senior Class of Lake Stevens High School presented their annual senior play on November 19, in the old gym. The play chosen, Sing For Your Supper, is a comedy in three acts by Anne Coulter Martins. The cast was composed of the following seniors: Barbara Benthlen, Mrs. Piper; Ray Crowley, Mr. Piper; Marilyn West, Susan; Joyce Ingrum, Pinky; Rosetta Butler. Laurette; Charlene Sawyer, Joanie; Glenn Tuininga, Ranny; Lowell Stauffer, Biff; Carol Cleveland, Marilee; Arlene Dettrich, Tessie Topper: lack Hein, Stephen Foster Brown; Bette Olin, Ramona; Terry Goodrich, Stacy; Lorraine Stichler, Barbie; Joan Nearing, Peggy; Shirley Kennaugh, Ellie; Anna Reddeman, Kay. The play was very successful and it was suggested by some of the people in the community that a re- peat performance be given, but because there was no free date on the calendar the matter was dropped. The success of the play was due directly to the su- perior directing on the part of Miss Jean Rogers, and indirectly to the outstanding acting ability of the cast. A party was given in the old gym following tne play and many seniors enjoyed dancing andbountiful refreshments.

BASEBALL Lake Stevens High School entered in A league sports for the first time in its history this year. There are three main reasons why we entered the A league. (1) Classifica- tion, (2) Tournaments, and (3) the B league dropped us out. The number of students in the high determines the classification of the school. If the school exceeds 300 students by October 1 of any school year, the school automatically goes into A league in basketball. This is a state athletic ruling. Since 1950 our school has grown from 225 students to 303 in 1954. We will play A league in baseball this year also. We will only play the Snohomish County A league schools though. They are Everett, Edmonds, Marysville, Snohomish, and Arlington. In football we will be playing the B league but all the games will be null and we will not be able to win the championship even if we win all the games. The league standings of tile schools we defeat will not be affected. The reason we will not be able to play A league football is that the schedules are made for two years, and the schedules were made for 1954 and 1955 seasons. In tournaments we must play in the league according to our enrollment. This again is on the 300 student basis to determine the league. Once we have played A league ball the B league will not consider us eligible for the championship, and our games will be just like practice games. 1 FB Cheerleaders: Carroll Olin, Glenn Tuininga, Lenore Rogge.
