X THUJHH - 1957 MERIDIAN HIGH SCHOOL LAUREL, WASHINGTON Editor Business Manager Marlin Mattson Marica Gudmunclso THROUGH THE OPEN DOORWAY FOREWORD As we entered through the open doorways of Meridian High for the first time and walked down these now familiar hallways we walked into a completely new experience -high school. Various doorways of the school have offered us many new experiences. Some have been used frequently-others less often. During our school career some doors have been inactive, while others have come into being. But they all have one thing in common -each one has added some important part to the making of our education. Before we leave these hallways and pass out through the open doorways of Meri- dian High School for the last time let us take a final look at our school. 2 ADMINISTRATION 5-I2 CLASSES I 3-32 ACTIVITIES 33-52 SPORTS 53-66 Faculty Administration Faculty ..............

Mr. Harris has been superintendent of the Meridian Schools for sixteen years, coming here from Ephrata in 1941. The end of the 1957 school year will complete his thirty-second year in the teaching profession. We are all proud of our superintendent who has done a great deal for our Meridian School District. Through his careful supervision, planning, and management many improvements have been made during the past sixteen years. Among them are general curriculum improvements including addition of several new courses, building additions at the grade school, building of the tennis court, building additions on the shop and bus garage climaxed by the building of the gymnasium-auditorium and home economics department at the high school, and acquisition of adequate land for future high school expansion. We salute you, Mr. Harris, for your outstanding achievements. 4 X14 L C M Lful x 2 V xxx' XP 'UC lv 'rf 20 ??f,9w wg Q 7171715 fvmfqp ff 77C'1L9,. , . , y , Q, -5ULQ nqfwfw 'S a HIJHIIHISTHHTIUH fy I uagowv W- , 4 L, A,., www , ff. , .Jwzag ' e ,V H --A Q if -A 5' I4-n-V,-ww.-m,,W,ffM,M ig af S: f s . , 5 , Q4 WA , ' will MERIDIAN HIGH SCHOOL Z . . . , .THE SILENT MEMBER OF OUR FACULTY 6 Mr. HARRIS, SUPERINTENDENT Crightl 3 Far the past sixteen years it has been my privilege to serve in the capacity of sunt-iiiitr-rink-uit al the Meridian Srhaol District During this time our schools have made steady progress with building programs being completed at both the grade and high school, More land has been added at the high school and there has been a steady increase in the number of students. lt has bwari a teal pleasure to woilx with the people and students ol this com- munity and with the members ol the faculty.

Meeting once a week in an hour session, the council discussed problems and carried on the atlairs of the student government, During the year they completed several valuable school proiects. Among them were a highway sign publicizing the school, an activity calendar in the high school, orientation tor in-coming freshmen, and student body assemblies to acquaint the students with various phases ot student government. Once each quarter four or tive members of the council attended the Whatcom County lnterhigh Council Meetings where student representatives from the seven public high schools ot the county discussed common problems and solutions. Meridian High School played host to this group for the second meeting ot the year. in the fall three council members, Marlin Mattson, Larry Reynolds, and Marlyn Wilson, Marcia Gudmundson, and the student council advisor, Mr. Spencer, attended a high school leaders' conference at the University ot Washington. Learning to make our student government function more ethciently was the main topic at discussion. ll I luv r -ss? .. ZMERGENCY 5 ,, -1 ' wmv Q . I Q M ...-.L ,Kg Q v ?'

Beginning their busiest year ot high school last September, the seniors' first major activity was the Senior Day. Following established tradition the seniors enioyed a long, full day at the Puyallup Fair. They packed a picnic lunch and ate together on the I fair grounds. During the afternoon most of them took in the grand stand show and ex- perienced thrilling rides on the roller coaster. The seniors sleepily appeared at school I' the following day alter a tew short hours of sleep. They gave their dance in the fall with a hobo theme, Tramp Tramp may be thought ol as a real credit to the class, as it was a big success. Co-Chairmen at the annual carnival were Marcia Gudmundson and .Larry Rey- nolds. Attractive Myrna Johnston from the senior class was chosen carnival queen by the student body. Other seniors were active participants in this project and in charge II of maior responsibilities. The senior play, You Can't Kiss Caroline, was a rollicking success. Several seniors revealed dramatic talent, and all had a good time rehearsing and presenting it. Seniors were active in all high school organizations and activities. The Class at '57 received a grand send oft in May with a banquet and prom given in their honor by the iuniors. Baccalaureate and graduation were the final rewards for their four busy, wonder- tul years at Meridian High School. 1-l l r Y E. gi ALLAN BUNKER Bunk , JOHN ANDERSON John L-l1lPl'Pll liom St Martins High School 4, Big M Club 4, Football 4g Base- ball 4. i I MERLYNN ANDERSON Andy Band IQ, Orcliostra lf, lr.

Wonder what is on his mind? Roy is reminiscing over the old days at Meridian. l'Il never for- get my last year at M.H.S. ALBERT HERRE surprised us all by popping the question to MURIEL RASMUSSEN. Just yesterday I learned they've added thirteen healthy chil- dren to the Laurel population. After fourteen years of married life, his troubles are still- little ones. Mr. Harris glances through a pile of magazines and picks up his favorite, Time. He is startled when he sees MERLYNN ANDERSON'S picture on the front cover. He turns to the cover page where he reads that Merlynn has gained national recognition for selling one million ham- burgers in one year. After Mr. Harris recovers from that pleasant surprise, he turns to his favorite page, Letters It seems there are more broken-hearted girls in the world today. Here is one from a girl called LAURA MACKENZIE BELLINGAR. She complains that her sailor husband has a girl in every port, and now she is asking for national aid in her battle with the Navy. It appears that there is someone from Meridian un- der every topic. Hemisphere is no exception. CHARLES FEATHERS shipped oFf to Timbuktu because he wanted his own harem. When he sees topic two under Hemi- sphere, Mr. Harris' eyes open in wonder. MARCIA GUD- MUNDSON, while following a career of crime, was cap- tured by JACK MOORE, the tough New York cop. She is now spending her time being the Gun Marm of Alca- traz. SENIOR PROPHECY According to Time, Hollywood has become a draw ing point for many Meridianites. DICK GILDA, the famed Love 'em and Leave 'em Gilda, just won his fourth gold-plated record. Dick spends most of his time at the Mocambo where CAROL RAYMOND is a spicy waitress. In the same club, MEREDITH WITTER plays the piano for LUCILE PRENDERGAST, the leading vocalist, who lures in the gentlemen. What's this? IDA SANDERS has started up a band in Tin Pan Alley using both GERALD MILES Isopranoi and JERRY MANTHEY ialtoi as the star vocalists. Her band contains EUGENE HECOCK, trumpeteer, who has be- come another Satchmo, LORE SHARP, the guy that beats outa steady rhythm on his bongo drums, and MAR- VIN GANSLER, who adds color with his hot violin. Jackie Gleason has added a new attraction to his June Taylor Dancers. She is DOROTHY AUGHE, formerly of Laurel, Washington. Lucky fellow, eh? JEFF GRAN has become another Elvis Presley. Since his debut at the Meridian Carnival, his life is not his own. MARLOW END- ERSBY iust danced into a marvelous career of ballet at the London Theater of Arts. His most requested number is the lead in Swan Lake. As Mr. Harris turns to the next page, an article on Education catches his eye. JACK BOXX had taken over the job of superintendent at Meridian High School. Edu- cation has decidedly improved. LORETTA ARMSTRONG, Jack's favorite teacher, is teaching home economics to M.H.S. students as well as to her six girls. As his eyes scan across the page he sees an Ivory Soap advertisement. Why, it's DALE BIRD, nationally known as 'Bubbles.' Look! Who is sleeping here! MAR- VIN BURGRAFF is pictured demonstrating mattresses for the Love Your Bed Co. High school did him some good after all. It was there he developed his sleeping technique. On the New Books page he is startled to discover that ELINOR MUENSCHER has just written a textbook called Chemistry Made Easy. lt is being recognized by critics all over the world. RON CORRELL has also just fin- ished a book on hunting wild animals in their natural habitat. This promises to be a best seller with photos in full Africolor. IContinued next pagel SENIOR PROPHECY CCONTINUEDI Mr. Harris turns to the page on Medicine to see if anything new has been discovered. ln the field of Pharmacy MARLYN WILSON has found a new pill. It is for that dreadful disease, Chicken Coff. Her catchy slogan is Willy Wilson's wily pills take away those awful chills. After extensive tests on RHODA SLUYS and LARRY REYNOLDS, the famed husband and wife comedy team who gave up their career to help him, MARLIN MATTSON, M.D., is convinced that the new pill for Chicken CoFf is a safe and effective preventive. Time has news from all parts of the world. Straight from the Congo we learn that MYRNA JOHNSTON married one of those suntanned fellows from the African jungle. Her favorite sport is hunting big game. Also in the Congo are DONNA BAME and KATHLEEN UPPER fulfilling their dreams of becoming missionaries. They have just established a village there called Upper Bame- ville. l always knew MARLIN DUNLAP would end up in the Metropolitan Opera. Time says he is receiving great acclaim under the name, Marlin Dunlap Caruso. Across the page he notices an attractive advertisement, Eat at Alino's For The Best ln Italian Food. ALAN BUNKER appears to be world renown for his expert ravioli and spaghetti recipes. The page on People in the News has always been interesting to Mr. Harris. He notes that CHARLENE HEL- GESON is still counting the money at Meridian. She had pictured herself counting the money at Fort Knox, but M.H.S. failed to sign her graduation diploma due to an oversight on the part of the principal. JOHN ANDERSON thought he would gain recogni- tion if he grew the world's longest real beard. lt looks as if he did because he has just signed a contract with the Gillette Blue Blade Company, who made the lowest bid to cut it off. Mr. Harris lets out a small chuckle when he sees that KEN HAYES has approached the world's weightiest problem scientiically., He just opened a Slenderella Re- ducing Salon. His first victim was LEROY HITCHCOCK, a millionaire who had had too many back-yard lemonades. Judging from these next two pages, Meridian has done very well for itself in the World of Sport. AN- THONY FORMAN, who is now seven feet tall, has been taking vitamin pills ever since he graduated and now is a basketball player called Tony the Stilt, averag- ing eighty-five points per game. JIM FELL is up there in the Sport's World, too. He is going to compete for the Olympic Skating Championship where he is expected to win any number of gold, silver, copper, and tin metals. It has just been discovered that LONNIE MONT- GOMERY, now recovered from his broken leg, has been painting himself up so he could play with the Harlem Globe Trotters. DAVID DICKSON is now the county extension agent of Whatcom County and is taking his first judging team to the lnter-Planet Judging Contest held on Mars. Up there in the Business World are tycoons, BOB PFANNENSTIEL and BILL PAYNE, who have just opened a chain store throughout the country. lt's called the B.P. and B.P. carries sports equipment. My, Mr. Harris thinks to himself as he puts the magazine down, the alumni from the Class of '57 have certainly done well for themselves.

JUNIOR CLASS Looking back over the year, the iunior class has completed a full schedule of activities. They took an active part in the carnival and selected Philis Parker as their princess. To begin the new year, they elected Wally Swoftord head of the Junior What-Not ond Philis Parker chairman of the banquet and prom. These two long awaited events were held in the spring. Climaxing their busy year, the juniors relaxed at an after school class picnic.

SOPHOMORE CLASS To begin their second year ot high school the sophomores welcomed the freshmen into their realm with a constructive initiation. Dark-eyed Maxine Hanks was chosen princess to represent the sophomore class at the annual carnival. Having been chosen by the student body last spring, Deanna Megard and Jean Meyer were a credit to the sophomores as school song leaders. The class was well represented in all sports, school activities, and organizations, including drill team, annual and paper staffs, and chorus. January 25 was the date picked for their dance, Snowflake Fantasy, but due to weather conditions the dance was postponed. A picnic was held at a local park to close the school year.

Election ot Judy Edin as carnival princess was one of their tlrst orders of business. Although at the bottom ot the school roster, the freshmen were participants in many school activities. In the spring a dance was given in honor of the sophomores, and a class picnic was enioyed at a local park. Freshman girls presented musical numbers for Christmas Assembly.

Stout, M, Harris. by the students and faculty. lt is our hope that we have succeeded in recording your school year. To most students the preparation of the annual only amounted to the collection ot money and the taking of over 300 pictures, But to the editor, Marlin Mattson, and his statt it was much more-from designing the book, writing and typing copy, to making the budget meet. It was not uncommon to see tour or tive statt members working late at night trying to meet the four deadlines set up by the publisher. To prepare the book the staft worked with Mr. Palm, the American Yearbook Com- pany's representative, Mr. Bradbury, the school photographer, and Mr. Wise, faculty photographer. We thank each of these tor their assistance. Something new this year was a yearbook assembly at which time the dedication was disclosed to the students and the faculty, new statt heads announced, and yearbooks distributed. Four stafl members-Marlin Mattson, Marilyn Snydar, Philis Parker, and Albert Herre eand Mrs. Oltman, advisor, attended the annual workshop at the University of Wash- ington in October to gain information on annual editing.

Under the guidance of Mr. Wood, advisor, they were active participants in cattle iudging and parliamentary procedure contests. Jerry Manthey was elected by the chapter to be their representative at the National FFA Convention in Kansas City, Mis- souri. Another event on the FFA program was basketball with games between the dit- ferent chapters of the county. Games were played after school before the league games.

Again, as they have tor the past two years, the Meridian Chapter ofthe FHA received the Honor Chapter Award at the regional meeting in Sedro Wolley. Under the leadership ot Charlene Helgeson many activities were carried out during the year, including a caroling party, a dance, FHA Week, initiation activities, and the Mother-Daughter Banquet with Sharon Dunlap as chairman.

Several interesting assemblies, featuring style shows and good grooming, were given during the spring months to the members of the club.

One week later the squad was narrowed down to twelve ployers. Starting the season was the annual basketball iamboree at the Bellingham High School gymnasium, where we took on Blaine and won a thriller I8 to l5. During the year we had several close games, but come out with o season record of two wins and eighteen losses. High scorer was Elmer Little with l3.5 counters in twelve games, He was tenth highest scorer in the county with two other iuniors in the top ten. In the sub-district B tournament in Oak Harbor our team started to move, We played Monroe on the first night of the tourney and won 56 to 42. The following afternoon we took on Friday Harbor and earned a place in the district tournament with a decisive 7l to 60 score. As we went into our first game of the district tourney at Mt. Vernon gymnasium we were rated as the underdogs But such was not the case. We came out of the first game with a 6l to 57 upset over Concrete in overtime. The next game to place for the finals was iust as exciting. ln it we played Oak Harbor and won a thriller with a final tally of 60 to 59. Although we lost the district championship game and the right to go the the State B Tournament to Darrington 64 to 40, we still won second place in the district and received an attractive trophy.
