seniors took that long walk in the graduation processional to receive their diplomas. The annual all-night party was held at the Lincoln Theater and the American Legion Hall. Then the seniors came to school the next morning more sleepy than awake for more annual signing. June eighth was the last day for most of us, but not all of us. There were a few who had to look forward to another Monday morning of school as summer school began June eleventh. For those who were seniors these last few days were the last time they will walk through the halls of Wash- ington High School. Even though they may never come back to visit in the physical sense, we hope that this year- book with its many special features will relive many of the pleasant mem- ories that they have had in their high school days.

It was a long hard struggle but finally the end was in sight. A common scene throughout the halls was that of every one cleaning out their lockers, some for the first time in the year. There were many very surprising dis- coveries. Lost books appeared from out of nowhere. Even a few long lost lunches came to the surface after a long rest period in the bottom of the pile. June first was the big day for those who attended the Junior-Senior Prom. It was by far the most exciting and the most beautiful prom of all times. With the fabulous Moonlight Gardens as the setting everyone really had a wonderful time. The following week brought the two honor chapels that so many had been waiting for these long months. They were held in the auditorium on the fifth and sixth of June. This too was the day for the distribution of this yearbook. Many bottles of ink were used as pens were filled and refilled so that everyone could get a chance to sign the annuals of their friends. June seventh brought graduation day for over 400 seniors.

ENGLISH ENGLISH English is the backbone of all education and Washington High has realized it in providing her English courses. Beginning sophomores are offered two choices, college or practical English. Both aspire to help each student improve his listening, speaking, reading and writing ability. Fundamentals of grammer, spell- ing, and pronunciation are emphasized. Oral English gives the student the necessary confidence in appearing before groups of people. Sophomores grumbled when required to read Julius Ceasar but found out it was not too bad after all. Juniors studied literature and Macbeth . Also oral and written composition are stressed in English ll. PAVI.
