I R . if 0 0 The staff of the 1956 Tillicum wishes to dedicate this annual to a man who did much to uphold and promote the activities and traditions of Oakville High School. For his years as agriculture and algebra instructorg for his work as advisor of the F. F.A. and the Freshman Classg for his public service as F. F.A. superintendent of the Grays Harbor and Southwest Washington Fairsg for the many Christmas trees he brought in for open house throughout the yearsg and for the many other helpful and considerate things he did, we are truly grateful, This man made many friends and gained the respect of the entire student body during his six-year stay at Oakville High School. Therefore . . . . We proudly dedicate the 1956 Tillicum to Eugene K. Irwin. ' Z jx on 'adam This page is dedicated to the memory of Lenora Battson. Mrs. Battson was a true friend to each and every one in the school and the community. No matter what activity Mrs. Battson gave of her time and efforts to help us. She was a woman of many talents and gave unsparingly of these talents to the school, community and P, T. A, Though no longer with us the memories we have of her are warm and tender. 3 MM W Mmfii MjMyif7WvZ'5W,WW KWWMWMWWWWZJA Mi WL if , g'fa w-MfQ0L 'Mff.f' ff74 L afifgfwfjwff M15 WML Q BQQMQWWMWJHQM 5' 05ffQ'Mff i.wZf'gfffk- . da' 1, Xy' 9-Lf!

JOE WATERS Born December 22, 1936 at Malone, Washington, Usher, IV: Entered from Elma, 1955, 9 Swim 36313049 We entered the doors of 0.H. S. as Eighth Graders. Our advisor was Mr. W Heaton. We were the first Eighth Grade class to be in the high school for m-HHY years and we were completely lost. We weren't in the grade school and we weren't in the high school. In the fall we sponsored a dance. Now we were Freshmen! At last we were actually high school students. On the first Friday of school came the long-feared initiation. A few weeks later WC gave our return dance to the Sophomores, thanking them for initiating us. ID the y spring, Mr. Irwin, our advisor, gave us a party at his home on Garrard Creek- As Sophomores we were glad to return to O.H. S. There were 19 of us under our advisor Mr. Weitz. We initiated the Freshmen the first week. All through the year we helped with many different things. Our class officers were: Myrna Sexton, President, Bill Lee, Vice-President, Marlene Menish, Secretary- Treasurer. Around Thanksgiving we gave our Sophomore Hop entitled Turkey Trot, which was a huge success. When we came to school on August 29, 1954, as Juniors, we were looking for ward to a year of trial. Mr. Bue was our advisor. We elected a very able group of officers. Rose Marie Neeley was President, Ed Palmer, Vice-President, Barbara Lofgren, Secretary, and Sharon Blechschmidt, Treasurer, with Darlene Macomber, Sergeant at Arms. Our next project was to elect an Annual Staff. 1 They were: Rose Marie Neeley, Editor, Ed Palmer, Assistant Editor, Bob Van- dervort, Business Manager, later replaced by Barbara Lofgren, Sharon Blech- V schmidt, photography editor, Gary Carl, sports editor, Myrna Sexton, Joke editor. The staff immediately started to work and signed a contract with R. Wallace Pischell and Company of Pasco, Washington. Our annuals were different! They were bound, they had a better grade of paper and they were printed on both 1 sides of the paper. Mr. Bue took the pictures, which greatly reduced the photo- graphy bill. Any day the sun ventured out you could see Mr. Bue and his camera running around. We completed work on the annual shortly after the class play had been presented. Meanwhile, plans for the Junior Prom were in progress. Our prom was held November 12, 1954. Our theme was Chapel in the Moonlight. We had Ken Stevens Orchestra. The queen was Bertha Donley and the king was Ralph Moe. They were chosen by the A, S. B, As our class play, we chose an all-girl play entitled On Account of Larry. The cast was chosen and work begun when Rose Marie Neeley became ill and was Q forced to give up her part. The cast was then rearranged and work doubled. The ' play was presented on April 15, 1955. Our next project was the Junior-Senior Banquet which was held May 13 in the grade school multi-purpose room, with the theme Moonlight Serenade. The tables were decorated in blue and white. Then came graduation time. We decorated the stage for baccalaureate and commence.. ment. Our last activity of the year was a party on June 6, when the annuals, which had just arrived, were distributed. At last we are seniors! Nineteen of us started the year. Theifirst Friday of school we gave the Senior Mixer in honor of the Freshmen. We gained three boys from Elma five weeks after school started. On October 4, we had our senior pictures taken at Post's Studio in Chehalis. We sponsored arestaurant at the carnival held in October. Our senior class play was Hillbilly Wedd1n. We presented the play on December 9. After the play, we chose our name cards, announcements from Master Engravers in Portland and our graduation caps and gowns from Clint Wi. Lee in Seattle. We planned a Senior Ball for February, with the Valentine theme. We all had a wonderful time on our Senior Sneak which took usnto parts unknown Then came graduation, a time of sadness and of added responsibility. These five years have been a truly unforgettable experience. -:vs ' v 1-- 1 f Q 2:35, .ya Q. 5 1' if I -'L , ' - ,, ' H V nr ' -xx ,. Q-, :gk f- ,, M' ,' ' . 'fr . I M, f ., . ...

At the end of November, we ordered our class sweaters. Christmas came and the Junior Class did its share of the work. In March 1956, the Junior Play was held. May brought the close of a very busy Junior year.

The carnival, which we all enjoyed and had a part in, gave the 8th grade class two booths. They were Cake Walk and Chief Rain in the Face. Late in November our class went to the state library at Olympia. We also visited the capitol building. We participated in the grade school basketballjamboree in December and took part in a basketball league during the winter months. T On the evening of December 8, we put on a program for the P. T. A. Our program was to remind people of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Our class enjoyed a part in the Christmas Operetta and in January we made a tape recording to send to another country. A historical pageant was our last activity before graduation.

Theirs is a rather thank- less job, but without their efforts this daily jaunt could be unbearable. The Bus Drivers have the job of transporting us safely and on time from our homes to the school. Gard Hall is the one who keeps our building clean and warm, while the cooks provide the good food which we all enjoy so much at noon.

Oakville High School students have the opportunity to gain valuable experience as office workers and librarians. If you go to the office for a makeup slip, one of the students whose picture appears on this page will assist you. If you call the school during the day, the voice of one of these students will answer the telephone. When the library is open, it is one of these students who will assist you in charging out your book.

Eighteen boys suited up for the season, which began in the middle of September and closed during the first part of November.

GARY CARLO MARY HILLSTROM PETE RICHARDSON CHPYZIU Scorekeeper, Reporter Captain MR. STILL ALLAN BLAND AND ROGER HAWKINS Coach Managers Zcwietdail Shortly after football season closed, Coach Wally Still found a total of 25 boys on the floor for basketball, The season officially opened for the Oakville Acorns on December l when they played Wishkah on the home floor and won the match 50-35. On December 2, the squad went to Boistfort where they also were vic- torious witha score of 42-28. The jamboree was held on December 3, 1955 at the Maple Lane Village. There Oakville played their long-time rivals, the Rochester High School Warriors, and came off the floor a very proud team with 31 points to the opponents 23. The home quint finished 2nd in jarnboree play after the Tenino Beavers downed the boys in a tough battle, 17-15. Below are the remainder of the games played by Coach Wally Sti1l's creditable basketball squad. Oakville 47 VS Napavine Oakville Tenino Oakville 57 vs North River Oakville Lebarn Qakville 46 vs Lebam Oakville Green Hill Oakville 51 VS Napavine Oakville Rochester Oakville 45 vs North River Oakville Rainier Oakville 43 vs Wishkah Oakville Adna Oakville 43 vs Boistfort Oakville Tenino Oakville 56 vs Rainier Oakville Green Hill Oakville 49 vs Adna Oakville Rochester Darlene Ray, Kit Johnson, Marlene Menish, Sandy Mattson. Four members of the student body who have been responsible for cheers during basketball season and for providing signs during home games are our very worthy staff of cheerleaders. Without their help, sportsmanship and cheering would not have been as spectacular as it has been this year.
