vim ING ,E ' 'N Boarcf of Q,0I1tI'Of President -------- Leslie Sherman Vice President - - Lauretta Frederick Secretary - - - Eddie Ehlke Treasurer ------- Miss Mabel Schaefer HE board of control of the Puyallup high school has once again completed and carried out the wishes of the student body. Under the guidance and capable leadership of our president and with the wonderful cooperation of the members of the board, a perfect machine has been made that has surmounted the high hurdles of the year caused by a world- wide depression. The annual season ticket drive, upon which the finances of our various activities and school funds are based, proved to be a huge success. When the final count had been made, it was made known that the senior class had won the drive in one of the most exciting assemblies in years. The board voted Dick McColley to be the assistant-athletic manager. Since the two assistants from last year are now both seniors, the two students became athletic managers. Pu allu hi h school was ver fortunate in receivin a number of war relics from the . Y P g 1 . y g 1 n n City of Puyallup as an addition to our present museum. The relics consisted of four machine guns, four hand grenades, five army riiies, and one German helmet. This ear's cand counter roiit was used to finish a in for the new tennis court and j Y Y P P Y g equipment. The pictures in memory of the Misses Clay and Annabel will be paid for out of this profit, and that money which remains will go into the reserve fund and will be used according to the wishes of the Board. This year's profits were about two-thirds those of a normal year. The cafeteria realized no profits, but gives indications that there will be no deficit this year as has been the case in former years. A picture entitled To the Stars was bought and presented to the school. This picture was bought to replace the one that burned in the school fire. It is in memory of W. A. Connor, past assistant-principal of our school, who died while in office. Two other pictures were bought to preserve the memory of Miss Clay and Miss Annabel who died while on their Christmas vacation. Some resolutions in honor of these teachers were made and sent to the homes of their parents. The addition of a small letter designating the activity in which that person made his letter was added to our present chinelle letters. This small letter is worked in on the lower bar of our major letters. This year we witnessed the installation of two apple machines, one being placed on the senior high side, and the other one on the junior high side. Another important change was the awarding of major letters for tennis. This took the place of the former minor letters. The board passed a resolution that the sign Viking Field be painted upon the newly constructed fence. In order to have a more democratic school government it was almost unanimously agreed that we hold a primary election somewhat similar to that held in governmental elections. Each student is given the privilege to select his candidate for a specific student body office. A vote will be taken and the two highest for president, vice president, secretary, and yell leader, will be voted upon again. In this way, it is hoped that a better and more satisfied feeling may be promoted throughout the student body. Fifteen
