During the first year of our merry adventure we sailed under Skipper Bob Hass with his crew of Jim Kaldal, Belle Muir and Doris Cook. We were duly proud of Dorothy Reynard, Jim Kaldal, and Dorothy Short, our own thespians, who figured well in the ship's entertainment. Many of our other shipmates played large parts in giving the class of '40 Honorable Mention in the Logbook for that year. The beginning of our second year gave us a superior feeling, no longer were we freshmen. Sophomore Island was ours. Under the leadership of Jim Kaldal, Ruben Johnson, Jack Corcoran, Bob Hass, and Joanne Mersereau, we saw many of our classmates taking main parts in Seventh Heaven, Kapers and the operetta. Bill Code, Don Rogers, Andy Tuson, Don Milli- kan and Snuffy Smith handled our athletics with great finesse. We have landed on Junior Island. That poise and self-satisfied look is because we have braved the storms of Green Bay and suffered sea-sickness on our journey from Sophomore to Junior Island. Now we are upper classmen, immune to nearly anything. Our stay here was particularly interesting. We won the track and tennis championships and tied for second place in baseball, We elected Jim Kaldal as captain again, with a crew of Bill Corcoran, Amy Hetherington, Walt Madden, and Dorothy Segale to aid him. Our first junior-senior mixer in the ship's lunchroom was a huge success. We jitterbugged with the best of them . . . even better than the seniors, we thought. When it came to those dramatic entertainments aboard ship we were ELEANOR BECK DON ROGERS Treasurer Kuay Representative BENNY MATSUMOTO JIMMIE KALDAL BILL CORCORAN Vice-President President Secretary Brix 1-' -I .

COMMENCEMENT SPEAKERS DAN TORRANCE, ELEANOR BECK, VERNICE MONSEY, DOUGLAS PAUL SENIOR CLASS HISTORY - Continued right there in the front lines with Vernice Monsey, Frances Prater, Bill and Jack Corcoran giving splendid performances, while Dorothy Short awed all the passengers with her voice. At last our big day arrived, we started out on the last leg of our four- year cruise. One of the biggest events was when we won the undisputed basketball championship. Jim Kaldal continued as captain with four able assistants: Tom Gove, Jerry Schillreff, Bill Corcoran, and Bud Collins. Our Halloween P.-T. A. dance was a huge success and we all frolicked at the Kuay Karnival. Our senior year seemed to be full of successes. The senior play, Kapers and operetta all hit a new high in entertainment aboard ship. As our caps and gowns were ordered we again saw glimpses of Com- mencement Bay. Then we elected Jim Kaldal, Ben Matsumoto, Bill Corcoran, Eleanor Beck, and Don Rogers to guide us safely through the dangerous waters of Fletchers Bay, Credit Reef, and the Hurricane of Final Exams to Diploma Head and Commencement Bay. Our Senior Prom in the ship's ballroom, our final dance, climaxing our four years of mixers, hilarious games, meeting deadlines, notes in study hall, worried faces during exams, and many shipwrecks in Report Card reefs, added together the best four years of our lives, never to be forgotten. Even after this night many of us will still come back to see how our friends are faring in their voyage, to smile with amusement sometimes at their small squalls, often wishing we were back again, sea-sickness and all. -EILEEN CLYDE DAN TORRANCE DOUGLAS PAUL Valedictorian Senior Choice ZQ IQ
