VVe feel that this person deserves this great privilege and honor of this dedication. During his fifteen years of teaching in Oakville High School he has been outstanding in his Department of Agriculture and Shop. We feel also that he deserves credit for the many Ways he has helped with different school activities. He has done many of the odd jobs around the school willingly and put forth great effort to have them done right. He always came through With his crews to get stage settings ready for plays, etc., and all kinds of outside work, like goal posts, bleachers, backstops, etc., for athletics, plus many other jobs that would not have been done if it had not been for him. His retirement has not only left a gap in the forces of educational advance- ment but it has deprived us of a friendship and sincere understanding which can never be Wholly replaced.

The Home of +l1e Acorns During the last few years there has been many improvements at the O.H.S. They have had two trees removed and the shrubbery cut differently. Also on the interior of the building there are many changes. In the auditorium we have new stage curtains, draperies at the windows and tl walls and ceiling have been replastered and painted. There has been many other improvements too, such as the floors ef the corridor have been painted and the new doors at the front entrance. These improvements have made the home of the Acorns much more pleasant for the students, faculty, and visitors and we hope to make more improvements in the future years.

It was 10. years ago day before yesterday that I stood before the graduating class and public of Oakville and read the prophesy for the Senior Class of 1950. Day before yesterday I thought I would lock up my classmates and see how many of the prophesies came true. First I found Lois Bennett because I was sure that she flike I predicted? had married and settled near Oakville. After chatting for a while I asked where I could find my old pal Joyce Witt. We went into a big office building and found Joyce was a successful business woman, giving orders right and left, she always liked that sort of thing, my predictions were slightly wrong about her. I said she would be married with 5 children. On the way back to Lois' I passed a big modern looking building with the words Oakville Herald, Donald Gibson, Iiditor and Chief, and I wondered if this could be the kid we used to call Windy, just then the door flew open and a voice boomed, Get that story or else, I decided that it was Windy. After dinner I drove out to the Grace home to see Mary. It's remarkable how she has changed, she doesn't even look smart anymore, and the way she smiles so sweetly at her husband anyone would think he was the Boss in their house. Mary told me I wouldn't have any trouble finding june Wagner 'cause she was secretary to the well-known Bookie Vance Conklin. Back in 1950 I predicted a matromonial basis for these two. I didn't get to see Carole Berg because she and her husband were on their third trip around the world. You know I predicted she would travel. I did, however, manage to get an interview with Dona Cissner in her private dressing room. Shels an opera singer you know. Bob Scammel is a big hit on radio and television as a comedian. That's another place I was wrong in 1950. I thought he would be an auto racer. His brother Bill, of course, is great in the sports world, especially basketball. I couldn't locate Glen Logan or Jim Wolf but I heard a rumor that they have set up a partnership and are developing an entirely new system of book- keeping. I am one of the few I predicted correctly, for here I am a spinster of 27 still looking for my millionaire.

They also went to the Southwest Washington Music Meet at Olympia. Through the kindness of their director's mother they were able to purchase new choral robes, which added to the appearance of the group. Grade School Band The Grade School Bands are also under our band instructor, Mr. A. L. Spitz. Since there is no provisions at the Grade School, they hold band class at the High School for an hour every morning. A Few Whinnies Marilyn: Doctor, I blush so easily that it worries me. When I sit down and think, I blush. How can I stop it? Psychologist: The best way, young lady, is to thinkl about something dif- ferent. Mother: Georgia, dear, your escort brought you home very late last night. Georgia: Yes, it was late, mother. Did the noise disturb youfv Mother: No, the silence. Insurance Agent: What did your grandparents die of? Jay: I don't recollect, but twarn't nothing seriousf' Doctor: You must avoid excitement.

Pigskin Parade Mighty Oaks from little Acorns growl After being considered a weak sister by everyone concerned, especially the Oakville Coaches Association, the 1949 football squad came through with the first undefeated and championship season in the history of the school. No one will ever forget the thrilling games with the powerful Ryderwood and Rochester High School football teams. The Acorns became the mighty Oaks after defeating Ryderwood 30-22 and made history when they defeated Rochester 21-1,3. Many dinners and banquets were enjoyed by the members of the squad and the lettermen received gold footballs which were presented by the Ov Club. This success didn't come over night. It came mostly because the team had the burning desire to win, a desire which cannot have a substitute. We placed two men on the S.W.W. 6-man football team. Co-Capt's Bill Scammel and Vance Conklin. Glen Logan was picked on the second team and Lewis Cox, George Youckton, Bob Scammel and Jay Poore received Honorable Mention.

They went through their league schedule undefeated and entered the S.W.W. BU Tournament as the first place representative of the League. Oakville drew Evergreen Hgh School for their first game and lost 44-43 and were eliminated almost before they could get a real start. Even though the squad c uidn't get further than they did in the district, they deserve a wealth cf credit for working as hard as they did all season. Bill Scammel, Vance Conklin and Glen Logan were selected on the All Star Fiveu of the League and Don Bennett received Honorable Mention. Big Bill Scamme' alsa led the Northern Division of the Lewis County League in scoring 158 peints in 8 league games. Bill averaged 19.75 per game which we believe is a record. Our second team deserves a lot of credit. They only lost one league game this year. They are a very promising bunch of players for the years to come.

Diamond Review On March 9th, 18 aspirants answered Coach Buck Natale's first call for baseball. Returning from last year's championship team were, Glen Lo- gan, Bill Scammel, Dcn Gibson, Vance Conklin, George and Mel Youckton, and jay Poore. All of these players saw plenty cf action last year and are look- ing forward to another great year. Cf3Cl1 could see that the gap left by Capt. Twig La Branche and pitcher Harry Secena who graduated last year will be hard to fill. The season opened up cn March 29 with a practice game at the State School for Boys. We win 4-0. This game started us off in the right direction. The fellows have shcwn a great deal of sportsmanship and ambition. When they lose it doesn't dampen their spirits, they play just as hard as when they are winning. So far this year we're doing O.K. We hold 2nd place in the league with a good possibility of finishing on top.

A Few Whinnies A hillbilly, seeing a motorcycle rider going along the road below the house fand never having seen an automobile or motorcycle beforej, grabbed his rifle and took a shot at it.

The little girl showed unusual interest in the church wedding and then suddenly turned to her mother with a puzzled expression. Did the lady change her mind? she whispered to her mother. Why, no, what makes you think that? 'f'Cause she went up the aisle with one man and came back with another, the child replied. Two months after he had run over a girl, a North Carolina motorist mar- ried her.
