T hf SS A G L FEW 6 jvircrtms foreword THIS year the theme of our Annual is Mac Hi’s Grizzly Bear. The attributes of the Grizzly are the attributes of our athletic teams and our school — perseverance, courage, strength, and individualism. These characteristics are personified in our teachers, our students, our activities. This 1939 Lincolnian is designed to preserve in a more tangible form the many happy memories and friendships formed at McMinnville High School. dedication TO EXPRESS our sincere appreciation for his many years of service to the McMinnville public schools, we dedicate this, our 1939 Lincolnian, to Mr. Fred H. Buchanan. Mr. Buchanan came to McMinnville as principal of the Columbus school in 1910 and became manual arts instructor in the Senior High school in the fall of 1912, serving in this position until June 1938. Mr. Buchanan has taught in the McMinnville public schools longer than any other teacher. With the welfare of the students and the advancement of the teaching profession always his greatest interest, he has contributed much to education in this community. Upon the death of Mr. P. P. Olds, clerk of the district, the school board appointed Mr. Buchanan as Mr. Olds’ successor. We sincerely hope that in this position Mr. Buchanan may continue to serve District No. 40 for many more years. V the school board M. H. McGuire Gilbert Tilbury Frank Wortman A. W.

Dale Taylor senior class I HIS year climaxed the record of the last class to graduate from the old Senior High building. Since the time when they showed good sportsmanship w'hen they were initiated as Sophomores, the class of ’39 has steadily gained new laurels. They built one of the biggest bonfires in the school’s history. As Juniors they won ticket-selling contests, inter-class track meets, and other events. This year they have typified the ideal Senior Class. The Senior girls elected as their officers: President, Imogene Perkins; Vice President, Margaret Clevenger; Secretary, Doris Leigh Carnine, Treasurer, Betty Neuner, Sergeant-at-arms, Jeanne Imlah. At the end of the football season they gave the annual Football banquet. Both Senior girls and boys initiated the Sophomores, but the Senior boys did not elect officers. Their costumes on Senior Dress-Up Day were unique, portraying such characters as sailors, cow'boys, hill-billies, w'ounded people, Indians, old-fashioned maids, English gentlemen, angels, and Cleopatra’s sister-in-law.

The train is jiggling so I can scarcely write. April 1 I. The Idaho Pilgrim joined us in Boise at noon today. It is great fun eating in the diner. I had salad for supper with French dressing and it skidded about so I worked up an appetite while eating it. April 12. Crossed Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, and part of Colorado today. The country is all so bleak and desolate, just sage brush and prairie. Saw one herd of long horn steers. There was snow in Wyoming. Wouldn’t give an acre of Oregon for all the country I’ve been through. April I 3. Crossed Illinois, Indiana, and will have gone through Ohio before morning. Stopped in Chicago for about six hours. Went on a sight-seeing tour of the city. My, but it is a big, busy place. We saw the Wrigley building, Chicago University, Elk Memorial, the little cafe where Wayne King began his orchestral career and the beautiful Drake Hotel where he plays now. We went down a street called Gasoline Alley where any car made in the world may be purchased. About twenty of the girls have joined us. We are on our way to Washington, D. C., on the B O streamliner. April 14. Arrived in Washington, D. C., at 10:00 this morning. My what a place! All the girls are here; they are so friendly and full of fun. The accents are all so different. I could listen to the southern drawls forever. We got located at the Blackstone Hotel, then started seeing things. Went to Constitution Hall, the DAR headquarters. It is a magnificent building. This evening we attended a reception at one of the officer’s homes. It was a big colonial mansion with spacious lawns and gardens. April 13. It’s midnight and I’m surely ready for bed. How we have dashed today. First we went to the Library of Congress which is the largest library in the world. The older building contains five and a half million books. In the two buildings combined there are 405 miles of book shelves. Went to Folger’s Shakespearian Library. It houses an exact replica of the Globe Theater where Shapespeare’s plays were produced. It is even the exact size. This afternoon we went to the Smithsonian Institute, wish I could have spent a week there. Saw Washington’s Monument and Lincoln’s Memorial which I am sure is the most impressive structure in Washington. Past Ford s Theater and have seen so many other wonderful things that I feel like a walking history book or something antique. It has been pouring rain all day. April I 6. Went to St. Thomas Episcopal Church. It is the one President Roosevelt attends, was sorry he wasn't there. Went to Arlington Cemetery this afternoon and saw the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. I didn t realize it was so big. It has a beautiful Grecian amphitheater built of solid marble which will accommodate C 00 people. Left for the Curtis Lee mansion and then went to Mt. Vernon. They were both very similar, both so stately, they looked like they have lived the very fullest life a home could possibly live. This evening at the Mayflower Hotel the DAR President presented us with our pins. I’m so sleepy. April I 7. Got up early this morning and started out again. Went to Supreme Court building first, then to the capitol where we climbed to the top of the dome. After we got down we went to the House of Representatives and Senate. In the Senate the Wisconsin senator was fillibustering for Wisconsin cheese. This afternoon we went to the White House. Mrs. Morgenthau received us, because Mrs. Roosevelt was away. Tonight we were presented to the Continental Congress at Constitution Hall. The United States Marine Band played such stirring music. Every one was in evening dress. I’m still so excited I don’t know whether I can get to sleep or not, but I’ve got to, for it is 2:00 A. M. and I get up at 6:00 every morning. April 18. Before we left this morning about six of us went out to see the Franciscan Monastery. It is a secluded place up on a hill surrounded with trees and flowers. There are 4000 different varieties of roses planted over the surrounding hills. We went down into the underground catacombs. They were so ancient and eerie. We left this afternoon for New Orleans. Georgia, Louisiana, New Mexico, and I are traveling together. They are all such nice girls. April 19. Went through Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. Arrived in New Orleans tonight. New Mexico and I are staying at the YWCA. We are sharing the only room available with two Mexican girls. April 20. Got up at six this morning and started seeing the town. The Louisiana girl lives in New Orleans, so she showed us around. Went down through the French Quarter, which wasn’t at all what I had expected; in fact, I was glad when we got out safely. Down in the heart of that district was a beautiful cathedral—quite a contrast to its surroundings. We walked down Canal Street which is the longest in the United States. After a few other places we caught the 10:40 train. I’m glad to be heading home. It took us all day to cross Texas. Arrived in El Paso a short time ago. The New Mexico girls got off soon after, so I’ll be by myself from now on. April 22. It took all night to cross New Mexico and all day to cross Arizona and Southern California. Arizona looks like I thought it would—rim-rocks, cactus, sagebrush and Mexicans. We passed Salton sea, the desert where Sahara Desert scenes are made in movies. Gary Cooper had just finished Beau Geste. I had to change trains in Los Angeles after about three hours stop-over. April 23-24. Have been in Redding two days visiting my cousin. Yesterday we went up in the mountains to see a gold mine in operation and today we went to see the Shasta dam under construction. April 25. Left Redding this afternoon, homeward bound, and I’m so glad. The train is winding around the base of Mt. Shasta and the country is very wild and beautiful. April 26. Slept fine last night. It must be the good old Oregon atmosphere. We will be in Portland in a few minutes, and if it were any longer I think I could not wait. I really believe I’m just as anxious to get back as I was to start. To think that it was only about two and a half weeks ago that I was leaving—it seems like months. But every minute of it has been glorious, and I’m certain of one thing, “Oregon is the Best State in the Union.” juniors junior class officers President......................................John Frazier Vice President.........................

Initiation started approximately three weeks after school started and the class performed every whim of the Seniors for a week. The bonfire, once burned, was erected a second time and, at the final burning, smoked three days. The 1941 Class has been active in sports and club work. A number took part in the student body play, “Life Begins at Sixteen,” and other plays given before the assembly. They are looking forward to their Junior year in the new high school.

Betty Grenfell senior class play UESS AGAIN”, a farce in three acts by Glenn Hughes, was presented March 27, and 28, by the Senior Class, under the direction of Miss Faye Cornutt. Plot: Business at Edgewater Inn was practically non-existent. If it had not been for Mrs. Skinner, (Doris Leigh Carnine) ; her fresh daughter (Ellene Groening), and Olive Ordway, a health faddist, (Margaret Clevenger) it would have been non-existent. Mr. Grimes, the worried proprietor, (James Cline) permitted Waldo Fitts (Glenn Brixey) to pose as general porter, although a general nuisance is a more appropriate title. Janet Moore (Barbara Hoffman) would have been very efficient as general secretary and waitress, if it had not been for Bill Douglas (Don Christensen) who was out of a job, and out of his head about Janet. S. H. (“Soak 'em Hard”) Pratt, the social banker (Cecil Sanford), makes it necessary for Grimes and Bill to think of new schemes in getting patrons. Marcella Jenks, a journalistic girl-wonder, (Joyce Nicholl), unwittingly starts Bill on a plot which involves Lord Wiggleton, (Bill Donnelly) ; Bertie Blodgett, his valet, (Lloyd Manning) ; Renee Lamour, a chiseler from Hollywood, (Harryette Whitfield) ; Lulu Perkins, a big-league newspaper columnist, (Imogene Perkins); and Sol Messer, a movie magnet, (Verl Sauter). The managerial staff consisted of (prompter) Margery Walton; (stage) Bill Hanbey, Raymond Woods, Donald Postlewaite; (properties) Melvin Loop; (ad-vestising) Keith Lindsay, Janet MacDonald; (wardrobe) Alma Daugherty, Kathleen Cummins; (program) Doris Grenfell, Betty Blackburn.

Together, and with enthusiasm, they published the paper every two weeks. The paper, which is self-supporting, has ranked again and again in high school and state honors, and occupies a large place in the enterprises of Mac Hi. Nine members of the staff met the requirements for the “Quill and Scroll” club, a national school paper organization, and received pins. During the year the staff enjoyed a pot-luck supper and a wiener roast at Miss Hamblin’s country cabin. THE STAFF Editors .......................

Bill Donnelly I HE M Club, consisting of about 35 members and under the advisership of Mr. • Riordan, is one of the outstanding boys’ clubs in the school. Boys who have excelled in any major sport, such as basketball, football, and track are, if approved by the Student Council, admitted to club membership after certain initiatory methods are applied. The boys are interested in furthering clean, moral ideals, and in keeping the standards of their school high. At the Armistice Day Football game with Newberg, the members of the “M” Club held a homecoming day for ex-lettermen. Sauter, Donnelly, Tapscott, Worth Mosher. Donnelly, Tucker, Nightengale, DeHut debate club I HE Debate Club, under the advisership of Miss Reva Tucker, was organized this year, with Bill Donnelly as president and Verl Sauter as secretary. The question for debate was—Resolved: “That the United States should form an alliance with Great Britain.” The “A” team was composed of Bill and Patricia Donnelly, affirmative, and Verl Sauter and George Mosher, negative. The “B” team consisted of new members, the affirmative side having been upheld by Rolland Worth and Bill Tapscott, while the negative issue was represented by Pauline Nightengale and Dean DeHut. At the Linfield Speech Festival, the “A” team won three and lost three conflicts, while the “B” team made a better rating with four victories and two defeats. The team tied for third place at the Hillsboro district tournament.

Members of the squad were placed in various positions throughout the building to make sure of efficient exit in case of fire. During fire drills they did very efficient work, and the building was usually cleared in quick order. Those assisting in this work were: William Macy, Rand Potts, Jack Reeves, William Moersh, William Eborall, Don Wilson, Charles Stephenson, John Frazier, Don Christenson, Phyllis McKey, Paul Dow, Fred Koch, Arthur Mosher, Maurice Miller, Jack Moore, Margery Moore, Frank McGuire, Jack Robinson, Martin Conlin, Seth Maine, Norbert Vandehey, and James Gibson. library staff THE 1939 Library Staff, supervised by Miss Elizabeth Northup, was a very competent and efficient staff. The Staff was comprised of nineteen students who were interested in library work. They received instruction and practical experience in binding and mending books, processing, shelving, and checking books in and out of the library. Members of the staff worked in the library at different hours of the day and quite often had complete charge of the library. The staff rendered a very beneficial service to the school and many of them were busy in the library both before and after school. Each member of the staff received an honorary credit for his or her work. ylee club TWENTY students joined the Glee Club this year, and although lacking in quantity, they made up with quality. The Glee Club, under the direction of Clifford Elliott, made several public appearances. The Glee Club included the boys’ and girls’ choruses, a mixed chorus, and a boys’ double quartet. The group learned many new songs and enjoyed a very pleasant hour each day rehearsing these numbers. Because the Glee Club periods conflicted with class periods, it was impossible for many of the students interested in music to participate this year. 1939 Lincolnian The staff of the Telephone Register takes this opportunity to extend its best wishes for success to the class of 1939.
