WE'RE taking you on a fabulous journey to those pre-historic times when dinosaurs roamed the woods, when slcins and furs were the vogue in clothing, when people lived in trees and caves, when the slogan, 'ian eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, prevailed. Welre leaving the din and noise of the metropolis for a quiet repast with the jungle beasts and those ancient folks who lived hy might, not right. 'J 'gr MBL.

In esteem of the work he has done and the things he has accomplished, we, the journalism class of 1934, dedicate this annual to'Willard Matters, principal. WILLARD j.

Bohle Anne Irene Johnson Andrew Nelson Administration HAT a snap those prehistoric demagogues had-they taught the little cave men by drawing pictures on the cliffs. They had few problems to solve. But these days our faculty has to worry about needed improvements, increased enrollment, and faculty meetings. The C. W. A. program helped materially to lighten the financial burden of the school district by accomplishing improvements long before they would have been possible otherwise, said W. Matters, principal. Walls of the auditorium and some of the corridors were tinted, art desks built, and the gymnasium improved. Storage space was increased by additional excavation. The roof was repaired and retarred, and the old corner fences were replaced. One new teacher and two temporary instructors were added to the faculty this year. Wilford A. Reaper, a graduate of W. S. C., filled the position resigned by Miss Isyl Johnson, teaching journalism and English. Under the C. W. A., Miss Helen Chaney, who was graduated from the University of Oregon, and David Wright, a graduate of W. S. C., relieved the other teachers. After consideration by the faculty and the executive council, the number of periods was changed from five to six to accommodate an increased number of classes. The idea started last year when several 8 o'clock classes were conducted. This system is proving generally satisfactory, although shortening the periods has been a slight hinderance in some subjects, particularly laboratory subjects. Elimination of an activity period has made it necessary to hold meetings out of school time. The six- period day has made it easier to take care of added enrollment and has also made pro- gram assignments more flexible. Taking everything into consideration, the school year of 1933-34 has been a year of improvement and success. Five English DIARY LUCILE JENKINS Honor Society ELIZABETH NY.

Six Executive Council S THE primitive men had their leaders and council fires, so man today must be guided by some forceful members. As the pre-historic leader directed his tribes- men in the hunt, the feast, and the war dance, so our student body president leads in all student enterprises. In one of the peppiest and closest elections ever held within the high school, Andrew Nelson became Associated Student Body president a year ago as the 'QNew Deal presi- dent with the promise to Put the Bear Mark Highest! Other officers elected were: Gerald Maguire, vice-president, Winnifred Castle, secretary, and Roy Hurl, yell king. The managers approved were: Dorothy Graham, social, Ronald Sholund, athletics, Clark Bates, stage, and Maurice Carlson, forensic. Mazie Cummings and Lewis Haw- thorne were appointed by Miss Winifred Werner as student treasurer. James Carpenter became vice-president at the ineligibility of Maguire. The council started its work with the staging of Frosh Day before school opened. Winnifred Castle was chairman of the day and entertained the entering freshmen with varied musical numbers, faculty speakers, and a tour of the building. One of the big projects of the New Deal was the adoption of a new type of student ticket named, the stamp installment ticket. This ticket is purchased with weekly ten cent stamps and amounts to 53.60. It is good for all school projects including class affairs. The system has proven successful financially. The council projected and approved the building of a 55000 football granclstand with the cooperation of the CWA. A new system of electing officers named nomina- tion by petitionv was approved by the group and recommended to the various classes for trial. The New Deal leaders successfully steered the school spirit and activities back to their one-time supremacy. They did their part by fulfilling their promise to Put the Bear Mark I-Iighestln Back row, left to right: Clark Rates, Lester lrwin, James Carpenter, Roy Hurl.

Mc- I-lonora ries KNIGHTS or THE BIG o EMBERSHIP requirements of the Knights of the Big O were altered this year to admit anyone earning one varsity letter with a prospective second in the same sport, and must be a member of another varsity squad. This year, Olympia business men interested in promoting high school athletics banded together to form the Big Brother Bears club. The main social function of the Big O's was the sponsoring of a dance at the Capitol Park Auditorium, April 6. Of- ficers were: Gerald Maguire, president, A1 Wright, vice-president, and Ford Mullen, secretary-treasurer. HONOR SOCIETY HE Honor society is organized for the purpose of recognizing the scholastic stand- ings of students. To be a member, a student must obtain average grades of B, Sponsored by the P.-T.

W. Rockey ' Eugene W. Dils Martin S. Miller John Koenig Ronald Sholund Gerald Maguire NDER direction of an efficient staff of coaches, Olympia high school has attained a high degree of success in athletics during the last several years. Heading this staff is Athletic Director M. W. lChickj Rockey, also head coach of basketball and baseball. Rockey, a graduate of Washington State college, came here from Hoquiam high school where his teams won several championships. The local baseball stars have captured several diamond championships under Coach Rockey's guidance. His record in basketball should speak for itself. He has sent four basket- ball teams to the state tournament with one of them bringing back the title. Eugene W. Dils, who hails from Washington State college and with previous coaching experience at Cheney high school, has guided local gridiron teams for five years. Dils is a capable line coach, having played three years as center on the Wash- ington State football team. While coaching at Cheney, he won a football champion- ship and sent a basketball team to the state tournament. During his time at Olympia, football material has been scarcer than at any time in the history of the school. For 14 years Martin S. Miller has been the guiding hand of track squads of Olympia high school. Miller was graduated from the University of Southern Califor- nia where he starred in the mile run. He came to Olympia in 1921. Every year Coach Miller has had a representative from Olympia high at the state track and Held cham- pionships at Washington State college. To Coach John Koenig was given the job of teaching the second teams in football 1.1-ft to right, seated: R. Sholund, XVa1l:-ice, Littlejnhn, Jones, Smokey, Havens, Oestrich, U'Nf-il, Iilutvm, and Olsen. 1fI1t'Pl1IlH'Z Lloyd, Sllvfiflilll, Q'r'axwy, U'l.ez1ry, Mullen, 1,Ylll'l1, Simon, Puym-, :mil XYl1ite, Stzillrliiurz I.

Koenig was graduated from Olympia high school and the University of Washington. At Washington he was a miler on the track squad. This year Ronald Sholund successfully held down the post of student body athletic manager. Gerald Maguire was awarded the Rotary inspirational medal for his fine work on the football field this year. Gerald is a two-year letterman. The Rotary medal is a prized award and each year is given to the senior member of the team who has proved himself worthy, on and off the field. Varsity Football T THE start of the football campaign for 1933, Coach Eugene Dils was con- fronted with the problem of moulding green material into a first class team. Six lettermen answered the opening call. These included Sulenes, tackle, Carpenter, end, Wright, guard, Fulton, fullback, Olsen, quarterback, and Maguire, center. In picking up much-needed experience in the first two games of the season, the squad lost two heart-breaking tussles, one by one point and the other by one touch- down. These games were followed by a slump in the Chehalis game when the Bruins went down before the championship winners, 26-0. The Bears journeyed to I-Ioquiam the next week to return with a 6-0 victory. This win enabled them to be the first con- ference team in the Southwest to defeat Hoquiam since 1928. The scrappy Bruins next met the heavy Lincoln team from Tacoma in a non-con- Twenty-eight ference tilt. For three quarters the Olympians outplayed the heavier team, only to be pushed all over the field in the fourth quarter, the final score being 26-6. At the Sta- dium night game in Tacoma the Bengals from the City of Destiny won, 21-6, in a battle that resembled a mud-tossing meet more than a football encounter. Outplaying the highly touted Bobcats from Aberdeen until the final seconds of the game, Olympia lost a real heartbreaker by a score of 13-12, on Armistice day. A bar- rage of passes thrown in the last minute and a half turned victory into defeat for the locals. Vancouver followed next and finally managed to win by a 6-0 score. In the Turkey day classic, Olympia led in all fields to win from Shelton, 7-0. This game marked the closing interscholastic game for the following seniors: Bob Fulton, Walt Olsen, backheld, James Carpenter, Charles Eaton, Frank Sulenes, Lawrence Eg- bert, Bob Stookey, Irving Sholund, Murray O'Neil, Al Wright, and Gerald Maguire, linemen. An addition to Steven's field is the new grandstand of which a portion is shown in the background of these two pages. The new stand was built on the CWA pro- gram. The structure will more than double the seating capacity and will be officially dedicated at the Montesano game next season. Word has just been received that Coach Dils will not return next year as he has accepted a position in the Seattle public schools. Every member on the squad and the student body itself has a kind thought in his heart for Dils and his leaving will greatly handicap the team next year. Twenty-nine Basketball S TI-IE season opened, Coach Chick Rockey,s hopes for a winner looked rather dim with the return of but one letterman, Earl Lewthwaite. However, the Bears hit their stride to tie with the Aberdeen Bobcats for third position in the Big Six basketball league. Also the outlook for next year is very promising with seven lettermen returning to school. Only two seniors will be lost through graduation, Lewthwaite and Walt Ol- sen, both forwards. The Bruin cagers lost their chance to go to the state tournament in Seattle this year by a very narrow margin. After defeating Aberdeen once on the latter's floor by a score of 35-27, Olympia lost a tough game to the champion Hoquiam cagers 22-19. A win would have placed them in the tournament. Following this they went into a slump and Aberdeen, the team they had previously defeated, beat Olympia 30-20, and neces- sitated another game to be played. In the last game the Bobcats outshot the Bears and won the right to go to the tournament. The starting five for the season usually included Lewthwaite and Olsen or Arney, forwardsg Amans, center, Mullen and Hansen or Caldwell, guards. Ford Mullen, Rodney Hansen, George Amans, John Fuller, Jay 4Arney, Douglas Griggs, and Wayne Caldwell, seven lettermen, will return next year as seniors, and Fred Thirty Chestnut will also be out for a berth on the team. Chestnut will be a junior. Quite a few promising sophomores next year will be watched closely by Roclcey. Squad members not pictured in the picture on the other page are: Charles Eaton, Fred Chestnut, and Cecil Prewitt.

Bellarmine of Tacoma had the pleasure of upsetting the highly touted Stadium Bengals, twice. However, these two teams had a merry fight for basement honors. The other four team, Hoquiam, Stadium, Olympia, and Aberdeen, were closely hunched in the upper bracket. Cub Basketball Coach John Koenig's Cubs enjoyed a successful season this last year. In the past the Cubs have served more or less as a training camp for the first squad. The winning of games was not considered of great importance as long as the boys received experience. However, this year it was different. The Cubs broke about even in the number of games won and lost in their league. They defeated at least every teamg once and took two games from Chehalis and Shelton. The first five included Norman Meyer, Bob Lewthwaite, Delbert Mallgren, Daniel Cubberly, and Rodney Blanchette. Dick Northcraft at center and Mauritz Logdahl, guard, also saw much action. 1 Kneeling, left to right: G. Trish, LVUTPTHQYIY, llilflill, Thomas, F. Irish, Maxwell, Blair, K. Kamachi, Moyer.

Miller was obliged to use all his coaching skill to fill up the many vacancies left by graduation. All in all, it was a successful year on the cinder paths. Approximately 30 youthful aspir- ants, of whom only two were lettermen, donned their running togs for the initial turnout this year. Rod Hansen and Doug Griggs were the two returning veterans. Hansen specialized in the pole vault and high jump while Griggs ran the hurdle races. In a triangular meet with Bremerton and Shelton, the Bears literally burned up the track to surprise the fans by coming out on the long end of a lop-sided score. The locals met some still competition in Stadium, Aberdeen, and Hoquiam, and consequently took last place in the quadrangular mix. A week later Coach lVliller's team took third honors in company with squads from Centralia, Chehalis, and Ho- quiam, and again at Centralia the boys left the elimination meet with the third place ribbon tucked away. Olympia was represented in the annual Southwest district meet by four men who earned their entrance by placing at least third in the elimination meet at Centralia. Hansen, Lewthwaite, Docherty, and O'Leary were the hopes of the Capital city in this final big cinder fest of the year in the Southwest. Tom O'Leary proved to be the big gun in the local attack when he turned in a sterling performance in the 880 to win in the fastest time made in Southwest Washing- ton this year. Hansen garnered a fourth in the high jump and pole vault and Lewth- waite earned the fourth ribbon in the mile run. By virtue of his win, Tom earned the right to enter the state meet at Washington State college.

Thirty-two Baseball S THE 1934 baseball season nears its finish, the Olympia Blue Bears are presenting an enviable record for the year. As this is being written the nine has won all but three games of its none- too-easy schedule. Wins thus far are over Tenino ftwicej, Shelton ftwicej, St. Martin's ftwicej, and Bremerton and Centralia. Centralia and Bremerton both have defeated the Bears once also. Remaining games on the schedule include two games with Bremerton, one with the University of Washington freshmen, and one with Aberdeen. At the start of the season Coach Rockey had six lettermen answering the initial call. These included Arney, Amans, Ottinger, one-stripers and Musgrove, Mullen, and Olsen, two-year veterans. Two freshmen have broken into the lineup this year, Dick Hicks at shortstop and Emanual Contes, second base. .The first game of the season was with Tenino, the Bears winning by a 10-4 score. The return game also ended with an Olympia victory, 8-5. Shelton was defeated by the scores of 18-4 and 8-6. Centralia brought about Olympia's first defeat by a 4-3 count. The return tilt ended in Olympia's favor, 3-1. The Rockeymen next broke even in a doubleheader with the Bremerton Navymen. St. Martinis was vanquished, 8-7 and 3-2. Four games remain on the schedule. Prospects for next year are exceedingly bright. Only one man, Walt Olsen, three- striper, will be lost by graduation. The squad includes: Ken Turner, Jay Arney, catchers, George Amans, Jim Wood- ley, pitchers, Bill Ottinger, first base, Tony Contes, Bill Havens, second base, Dick Hicks, shortstop, Ford Mullen, third base, Walt Olsen, Rod Hansen, Howard Jones, Nate Canning, Wayne Musgrove, outfieldersg Gerald White, Cyrus Dimmick, Bill Lindsay, Willard Miller, Jack Dawson, utility.

Wrestling NLY three matches were held in wrestling this year in the high school. Coach John Koenig's inexperienced fighters emerged with one win and two losses in these encounters. In the opening match of the year, the locals defeated the Olympia Y. M. C. A. by a comfortable margin. The Bears then journeyed to Stadium in Tacoma where they were deluged by lettermen and weight which gave Stadium an overwhelming victory, 6-1. Bob Donnelly took the only point for Olympia. The final match with Lincoln was another one-sided affair with Olympia's greenness handicapping the Bears greatly. The score was 7-0. Letterwinners graduating are Calhoun, Donnelly, Mullen, and Fulton. Tumbling Club OR the first time in the history of Olympia 'high school, a tumbling squad was formed under the direction of Athletic Director M. W. Rockey. The club is composed mainly of underclassmen from the gym classes. Although in years past, the gym classes have had tumblers, this is the first year a club has been officially recognized by the A. S. B. The club entertained on the gym program Dads' night with a varied assortment of feats on the mats and the parallel bars. A special team composed of Dan Cubberly, Bob Bronson, and Don Dobrin performed at the junior class assembly with a variety of diH:1cult feats on the parallel bars. Plans are being made to bring a bit of gymnas- tics into the yell leading next year. Thirty-four GIRLS' TENNIS Left to right: Moore, Schmidt, Davis, Castle, Fairchild, and Kegley.

Of the team com- posed of Wesley Karney, John Ramalcer, Floyd and Glen Irish, Morris Payne, George Lenhart, and Joe Writer, only Karney and Ramalcer were returning letter winners. The league this year was composed of Aberdeen, Lincoln, Stadium, Olympia, and Chehalis.

Forty-five OLYMPUS STAFF Roy Hurl, Betty Frisch, YValt Olsen, NYinni- fred Castle, Margaret Istas, and Vfesley Karney. Bi -Weekly O SUPPORT and maintain the school pep compaign using the slogan Keep the Bear Mark Highestf, was the 1934 aim of the Olympus bi-weekly. Under the direction of their new adviser, Wilford A. Reaper, the Olympus has had a successful year. With the reputation of having an All-American rating in the National Scholastic Press association to maintain, the Olympus has to date received the highest award offered hy the Columbia Press association. In this rating the advertising section, for the first time on record, scored a perfect 100. Winnifred Castle served as editor this year, with Margaret Istas as her assistant.

Arthur Carpenter and Mary Remmen served as business managers, with Ruth Kegley as circulation manager. Alice Schmidt, Lester Johnson, and Abie Bean headed the advertising department. The Olympus staff gained valuable experience in newswriting this year when The Daily Olympian management extended the staff the privilege of producing one edition of The Daily Olympian. The students were allowed full rein and learned much through the work. Accomplishments for the year include the furthering of the pep campaign, the hack- ing of the new A. S. B. stamp plan, and the sending of two representatives to the Lead- ers, Conference held at the University of Washington. Forty-six WILFORD A. RE.-X1-'ER Publications Adviser Annual EATURING a prehistoric theme, the Olympus staff undertook the task of pro- ducing an annual for the first time since 1931. A successful paper-covered boolc was produced in 1932, but no production was attempted last year. It was only through generous A. S. B. appropriations and strict economy in every department that this year's annual was possible. Special credit is due Wilford A. Reaper, new journalism instructor, for his efforts in this line. The annual staff was headed this year by co-editors Margaret Istas and Winnifred Castle. Other stall appointments include Walter Olsen and Roy Hurl, sportsg Wesley Karney, photography, Betty Frisch, activities, Venetia Schultz, administration, Lester Irwin, clubs, Irving Sholund, classes, Velma Drury, business manager, and Charles Eaton, advertising manager.

The outstanding event of the forensic year was the inter-scholastic tournament sponsored by the Alpha chapter of Pi Kappa Delta of the College of Puget Sound. This tournament was open to all Southwest Washington high schools and included de- bating and extempore speaking. Andrew Nelson won first place in extempore speaking and became possessor of a silver loving cup. Other entries in the extempore speaking were Betty Ann Robbins, Prudence Wilson and Ann Davis. The Olympia debaters tied for second place. Those representing Olympia in the debate were Ann Davis, negativeg Betty Secrest, affirmativeg and Andrew Nelson, both affirmative and negative. The debate question this year was, Resolved: That the United States Should Adopt the Essential Features of the British System of Radio Control. Olympia broke even with wins and losses and ties. Debates were held with Lincoln, Stadium, Bremer- ton, Centralia, Chehalis, and Hoquiam. Coach C. A. Bitts had to work with unex- perienced debaters this year and they have shown up remarkably well by their victory at the inter-scholastic tournament. Maurice Carlson represented the activity in the ex- ecutive council as forensic manager.

First of these assemblies was that in observance of Armistice day, featuring a spe- cial band arrangement. This was followed by a Thanksgiving program at which the Girls' club Thanksgiving baskets were presented. A basketball assembly December 15 in the gym was the third undertaking of the committee. In conjunction with the Girls' club, Captain Arthur Hooke, deep sea diver, was presented to the student body January 19. Captain Hooke gave many interesting fea- tures of deep sea diving. The Washington-Lincoln day program was sponsored by the history department, directed by Martin S. Miller. Reno Odlin was the speaker for this program, and several skits were enacted. On March 2 the best received assembly of the year was given by the faculty, followed by a music assembly March 16. L. P. Brown spoke at the Honor society assembly March 30, and Professor Rob- bins was featured at the Pan-American assembly April 13. The Spanish club and the A. A. U. W. were the sponsors of the latter assembly. To urge high school students who go on to college to participate in extra curricu- lar activities, the University of Washington Oval club put on a program April 26 which featured student speakers. Another well received assembly was a band concert presented May 4 by the 10th Field Artillery band of Fort Lewis. The concert, which included ten numbers, was under the direction of Lynne Decker. The last program of the year was the one-act play given May 18 by the Mask and Dagger. The two plays presented were A Beg- gar,s Lot and Q'And the Villian Still Pursues Her.

Hiden, director, the band has made great progress and is the finest in our school history. The acquisition of a marimba, French horn, chimes, and a concert bass drum have increased the possibilities for both the hand and the orchestra. Fifty Orchestra ' , ROM a humble beginning in 1928 with mostly violins and trumpets, Vincent A. I-liden has produced an orchestra having every instrument found in symphony groups. Music was furnished for the junior play, Christmas concert, Washington-Ld 'oln assembly, and the senior play. Second place was won in the S. W.

The mixed chorus, the Boys, and Girls' glee clubs, and the mixed quartet have, in addition to appearances in student assemblies, feat- ured prominently in many other programs. Some of the programs at which the glee clubs presented numbers include those of Dad's Night, lVlother's Day tea, and a special arrangement at the Senior play. Not content with the regular work of the glee clubs, the mixed quartet composed of Dorothy Hermann, Wayne Long, Maurice Carlson, and Bonita Robinson, placed sec- ond in their event in the Southwest Washington music meet held at Longview.

Fifty-two Senior Ball INCE time began, rainbows have been in evidence, but never to our knowledge have they been of such verdant hues or so colorful as they were at the Senior Ball, given by the class of 1934 on Saturday, December 16. At the end of a large rainbow bridge the receiving line, consisting of the patrons and patronesses, junior and senior class ofiicers and advisers greeted the upperclassmen and gridmen as they entered the gymnasium.

The play revolved around the domi- neering head of the family, George B. Heather, who disapproved of all the amenities of modern life. Mr. Heather,s domestic dictatorship was made pleasantly possible for him by his agreeable consort, Julia Heather, whose philosophy of life is summed up in i'Papa knows best.
