SENIOR CLASS HISTORY . . . Conifl. By the time that the last year is reached we feel blase toward the entire grotesquerie of high school attendance, so called popularity 'tbig shots, skipping, and school spirit. We wonder whether it is this that we have waited four years for . . . we think back with nostalgic twitchings of the innocence and carefreeness of our Hrst two years . . . the question of the future haunts us more and more . . . we suffer and experience a number of misdirected ideas and emotions this year . . . school life becomes less inter- esting . . . activities interest us somewhat . . . we live for the future. Senior class presidency was bestowed upon Theo.. . Page Warren understudied him while Marian Nesbit, an officer of the past, jotted down senior activities . . . Frank Johnson held the key to the treasury . . . and penning for the paper was Wilfred Gill. Again Theo was elected president. . . and again Page held vice presi- dency . . . Frank Johnson retained his position . . . and Perry Baker, quite a journalist, was given good practice keeping up on senior existence. Ella Wesa Redfern, carrying on a family tradition, and Yoshi Mi- yauchi, setting one, with equal number of points, became valedictorians. For our class speakers we chose Gilbert Speir and Virginia Bacheler. Dorothy Rosen and Ed Kelly, winners of oratorical honors, were selected by the faculty. The Senior picnic committee consisted of: Perry Baker and Clarence Froberg, Transportation, Theo Carlson, Entertainment, Page Warren, Orchestra, Margie Hood, Grounds, Mary Lou Klinker and Anne Strelo, Refreshments, and Jim Lounsberry, Ticket Committee. It is hard to believe that life begins at forty after finishing these four years of high school. . . Regardless . . . we shall probably always cherish them as Uthe best four years of our lifef' JANE RUNNER. l COMMENCEMENT SPEAKERS Sta11di11g: DOROTHY ROSEN GILBERT SPEIR ED KELLY Seuied: VIRGINIA BACHELER ELLA WESA REDFERN YosHI MIYAUCHI

The first two years dragged but the high school picture came into focus in the screen of our mindsg vague shadings were becoming clear-cut lines, and moreover, accompanying sounds were developing from a raucous blur into an intelligibility that was actually encouraging. We almost believed that one day before graduation we would know what the score was. Each year brings new personalities. . .our sophomore year brought one from the South. . .Jody Harrington, president of the class. . . Margie Hood with her cute giggle and brown eyes assisted him . . . Jane Runner Hlled the position of secretary . . . Joe Hill became treasurer and Jimmie O'Conner was responsible for sophomore publicity. A joint theatre party with the freshman call at which popcorn balls were served added to the atmosphere of sophomorism. As juniors, high school has quite a different aspect . . . childishness is being left behind . . . our mental growth is remarkable . . .self-confidence adds to the accumulated sophistication of four years, in the teens.', Through his friendliness and dexterity in the southern drawl, Jody was reelected as head of the junior class . . . Marian Nesbir was his envied assistant . . . Theo Carlson began his political career as secretary . . . Roy Ccall me Petej Emerson Webster and Alice Kay sat with them. CThe definition of a junior class officer . . .one who sits at the doorway of a mixer and generally causes annoyance by demanding something you haven't . . . a receipt.J Theo Carlson graduated to presidency in the second half of the year . . . Alice Kay stooged for him . . . his dictation was taken by Harvie Hull, who didn't mind at all. . .Johnny Penso's batting adroitness won him position of exchequer . . . Frank Johnson smiled his way into reportership. SECOND SEMESTER OFFICERS Stanrling: PAGE WARREN PERRY BAKER FRANK JOHNSON Sealed: THEO CARLSON MARJORIE Hoon
