McMurray, president of the school board: Miss Anne Irene Johnson, girls' adviser, and J. XV. Sliolleiibei-ger, boys! adviser. Below: Pick out your favorites: The faculty. OUR ELDERS HOSE who guided the '35 ship of state are Willard Matters, principal, james H. Eohle, vice principal, Miss Beverly Barry and Miss Mae Ensley, oflice forceg Mrs. Helena Pleas and assistants, cafeteria staff, Miss Elmina Boothby, school nurse, John Beigh, truant oflicer, Delbert Webb, Albert Dodds and Claude Walker, janitorsg the school board, the P.-T. A., and the faculty. Just a word of tribute to our principal, Mr. Mat- ters. Being counselor to some 1300-odd students is quite a task in itself, but add to it the myriad re- sponsibilities incurred by school activities and you get a fair idea of what he has to do. That through the last few difficult years the school has kept on in its task of supplying efficient future citizens is largely the result of Mr. Matters' close application to his duties-unselfish always, in the interests of the students. New teachers this year were Miss Helen Chaney, Philip K. Erickson, Miss Marguerite Oliver, Mrs. Ada Woodin, Miss Virginia Tartar, George Sander, Miss Irene Strand, Miss Isabel Weaver and H. Mc- Donald. Miss Lily Everton returned. Congratulate our teachers, truly they will then realize that their labors have not been in vain. It is to be hoped that before the routine of school days has been finished, there will have been those who have given due recognition to the efforts of school leaders to provide greater educational oppor- tunities for Olympia students. 12

Representatives of the PTQSS OURNALISM has been very much in the spotlight since the com- ing of a new adviser, Philip K. Erickson, from Seattle. In spite of extreme rises in the cost of printing and materials, Olympia's pub- lications have improved, when many other schools have been forced to discontinue journalism activities. New equipment has been added, alterations made, and many of the finest features of metropolitan journalism introduced. Students made a comparative study of high school papers through- out the country and decided that their own Olympus ranked right at the top. So fat' Z-IS the 3I11'1L13l is COI1CCI'I1Cd, staff workers hope that their efforts to make the 1935 book an outstanding one have not been without reward. A difficult and expensive task, getting out a high SCl100l Hnllllill, and the editors Want to fl'13I1li CVCIY 0116 Wl'1O had 3. part in the yearbook's success. The annual is a new size, with an entirely novel form of makeup and layout-very modern in its whole, with more photography than usual and with copy presented in typical American journalese. Alice Schmidt, as editor, directed the work, four juniors-Glen Swan, Nell Hoyt, Jocelyn Dohm and Betty Fultz-admirably aiding her. Frank Kenney, alumnus, kindly volunteered his services as staff photographer and did a good job of it. Ida Gage kept the accounts straight, and Irwin Maxwell, assisted by Shirley jones, stepped out and broke all circulation records by raising more than 950 pledges for annuals. Merwin I-Ienslin, aided by Virginia McCarty, handled the advertising. 'Way up there in the corner is Philip K. Erickson, journalism adviser. The iirocluctimi staff of The Olym- pus, this book, appears directly ovt-rlieetd. Ai the extreme left, the yearbook heads: Merwin Henslin, Ida Gage and Alice Schmidt, with Assist- ants Glen Swan, Nell Hoyt, Shir- ley Jones, Jocelyn Dohm and Lois Morrisson at the right.
