Table of Contents F oculty and Hdministration Classes Organizations Arts Sports Snohomish High School I I Y 5 Administration It seems impossible that the time has come to say good-bye, You of the senior class of '45 have become so much a part of us that it is difficult to think about school without you. As we look back over the four years during which you were with us, we find large groups of you in all school ac- tivities- Honor Society, football, basketball, social events in fact everything that concerns the good of the school found you present and interested. Throughout this period, too. there was a real minimum of unpleasant problems. I can think of so many more pleasant and constructive things for which you are responsible that the few un- pleasant spots become entirely buried. This is as it should be. We know that you will go out from the high school and do whatever your job may be in a manner which will be an honor to you and to all of us. In all ot the days to come we wish you the best ot' success. As difficulties Come to you, they will worry us. too, but we know in the end you will conquer all problems and live an interesting, con- f? structive, and happy life. Cur best wishes go with you. XP. A. WRIGHT It doesn't seem that the time is here already for your class to graduate. I would like to thank you for your fine cooperation and attitude in this my first year as your principal. There have been times that I have had to depend upon you for a good deal of help. and your response has been of great assistance. For the future I wish you the best of every- thing. There may he a delay in the plans that some of you have, but I know that you have per- severance and faith enough to reach a goal that will provide an abundant life for you. Often I ani reminded of a statement that I once heard, If you have done your best, you have done every- thingg less than your best. nothing. f STAN BATES 'W' MRS. LEILA DOLSEN MISS ETHEL SMITH MRS.

Page Seven Editorial The Class of '45 has presented Snohomish High School with many blue ribbons for outstanding work in music, social activities, scholarship, and athletics. To record these accomplishments, as well as those of the entire student body, we of the annual staff have endeavored to give you a bigger and better annual, VVe hope you will enjoy the result as much as we have enjoyed the attempt. In publishing an annual many difficulties arise which can not be overcome by the annual staff alone, and therefore require outside help. Such was the case this year, For their cheerful and much appreciated cooperation the staff would like to thank especially, Miss Fowler, Mr. Day, Miss Furman, Miss Onerheim, Mrs. Hodge, Mr. Bates, and all group advisers. Although we of the Class of '45 depart to go our many ways, we leave you this an- nual as part of us, and thus contribute another voice to the spirit of S. H. S.

LF'-' gi: 1, ' Q I 1 , L X Valedictorian The time has come when another class is ready to leave. but not one of us, I'm sure, will go without many pleasant memories of our high school days at Snohomish. Besides :i great many friends that we have made at school, we have tried to gain a store of know- ledge and experience to help us on the road ahead. As I leave, may I thank the faculty and every one else who helped to make my four yezirs a success. Good-bye and good luck! SHIRLEY LARIMER, Valedictorian Saiutatorian Of the many important events which take place in high school perhaps the most hope-1 for and, at the same time, the most feared, is graduation. Such uneasiness is understand- able, for at this time the senior pays his final respects to his school and sees many of his classmates for the last time. I believe that most of the seniors will agree with me when I say that the four years spent in S.H.S. have been valuable, not only scholastically but so! cially: and they will join me in thanking the faculty and administration for their part in making our high school years successful ones. Good luck to the Class of '45, and to the underciassmen go my best wishes! ANN DOBBS.

Dean Minor became president, Dick Wilson was chosen vice-president, and Linda Salvadalenaelected secretary-treasurer. At the second meeting Beverly Wagigonerg was elected chairman of the pins and rings committee, and after a stormy session of voting and re-voting, Leona DeRidder was elected Junior Prom chairman. By the middle of the year the pins and rings were ordered, and all attention was turned to preparations for the Sadie Hawkins dance and the Junior Prom. The Sadie Hawkins dance was held Friday, February 23. The old gym was transformed into a clear- ing in Dogpatch, five miles from Skunk Hollow. During the evening Gloria Wagner and Earl Brook- hart were chosen the typical Daisy Mae and L'il Abner of 1945. Original programs and marriage licenses were designed and made by Nadine Driesler. The annual Junior Prom was held April 27 with Leona DeRidder acting as chairman assisted by the committees and their chairmen: entertainment, Linda Salvadalenag ways and means, Dick Wilson, dec- orations, Ann Sorgenfreig programs, Rena Andrewsg clean up, Bob Hanburigg invitations, Edna Hubbardg patrons and patronesses, Maxine Weedg publicity, Jack Norvell, punch, Lois Johnsong music, Phyllis Vetter. An Hawaiian motif was used in the decorations which were enhanced by colored lights. The same theme was cleverly cavried out in the entertainment during intermission. Music was provided by the Whidby Island Naval Base band. Dorothy Gemmer designed and made the programs. The juniors were well represented in all fields of work and school activities-the all-school play, the music contest, girls' sports, boys' sports, Snohomish County Tuberculosis League essay contest, Honor Society, F. F. A., and Girls' Club. Twenty-seven members of the Honor Society were juniors, and several of these earned straight A report cards. Clarice Vail was chosen as secretary. As always in any music contest the junior class was ably represented by Phyllis Vetter. In this par- ticular one she received a rating of superior, Carolyn Barry was rated as good The Melodiers were also rated superior Although this group wasn't exclusively juniors, it consisted mainly of them- Linda Salvadalena, Lorraine Beasley, Phyllis Vetter, Leona DeRidde1', and Clarice Vail. The junior girls were leaders in the field of gir s' sports this year. Seven junior girls-Rena Andrews, Beverly Waggoner, Lois Johnson, Emma Falkenstein, Helen Rach, Gladys Kinch, and Edna Hubbard- made the all-star speedball team. Four girls-Edna Hubbard, Gladys Kinch, Emma Falkenstein, and Lois Johnson-made the all-star volley ball team, and eight girls-Rena Andrews, Beverly Waggoner, Lois Johnson, Helen Rock, Emma Falkenstein, Gladys Kinch, Edna Hubbard and Lorraine Tronsrud-made the all-star basketball teams. All of these girls are members of the S Club and, with the exception of Edna Hubbard who has two, each has three stripes on her letterman's sweater. In the girls' drill team nine of the seventeen members were juniors. Kitty Stevens was captain, and Rena Andrews, Beverly Waggoner, Lorraine Beasley, Clarice Vail, Dorothy Shipley, Delpha Shipley, Lillian Reneau, and Claire Bartelheimer were on the team. The junior boys were prominent in sports this year, especially in football. Dwaine Lambert and Jack Norvell made the all Northwest conference football team, Lambert as guard and Norvell as halfback. Dick Rodland made the all Northwest second team as quarterback. Other boys besides these three who made letters in football, although they played on the second team, were Darrel Keller, Merrifield Rees, Dick Wilson, Don Minor, and Dean Minor. Although no juniors made the first team in basketball, several made letters by playing on the second team. They were Max Weed, Merrifield Rees, Dick Price, Jack Norvell and Dick, Wilson. In baseball Dick Price and Dick Rodland won their third letters, and Dick Wilson, Merrifield Rees, and Allen Downes made their first. In the spring, Jack Norvell, Wayne Jones, Don Minor, and Dean Minor participated in track. Max Weed and Bob Satterlee turned out for tennis. As the year ends, the Junior Class turns its last corner and becomes the Senior Class. But even as we look forward, we shall always remember this year as a very successful one. -BEVERLY WAGGONER Juniors A TOP PICTURE, Bottom Row, left to ight-LaVerne Crowe, Shirley Bailey, Edna Hubbard, Carolyn Bar- ry, Dorothy Gemmer, Pearl Clink, Jean Allen, Betty Lou Fenton, Mary Lou Draper, Theresa Betzig.

Football, the first sport of the season, was enjoyed by many sophomore boys who turned out for it. Gene Norton and Laverne Ollom were the two who earned their letters. After an inspirational football season many sophomore boys participated in basketball, Among the group were Roger Williams, Bob Jones, Bill Ingalls, Dave Greenleaf, Verne Fankhauser, Rudy Swanson, T. J. Kendall and Gordon Cavalero, Two sophomore lettermen, Lemar Ollom and Bob Jones, were again members of the baseball team. Other boys who participated were Laverne Ollom, Harry Stjern, Gordon Cavalero, Dave Green- leaf, Rudy Swanson and Gene Norton. The girls were also very active in sports this year. They virtually predominated on the badmin- ton, volley ball, and basketball teams. Among the letter winners were Mary Jane Larimer, Imogene Jones, Marie Boitano, Orva Torseth, Lenore Schaus, Jean Martin, Vivian Smith, Suzi Simpson, Betty Seymour, and Grace Clay. The sophomores sponsored a roller skating party at Skateland in Everett, on Friday, April 6. The entire school was invited. The committee making this skating party possible was Advisor S. J. Smith, Imogene Jones, Lenore Schaus, and Bob Jones. . The class offices were filled by the following toys: Bob Jones, presidentg Bill Ingalls, vice pres- identg and Roger Williams, secretary. Mr. Steve Smith was our competent adviser. The sophomores represented one-fourth of the school choir, and Marilyn Stocker wias the accom- panist. Several students entered a musical contest held at Renton. Janet Harris, Betty Morse, Jane Britt and Marilyn Stocker won high ratings. The student council members of the sophomore class were Jane Britt, Barbara Illman, Earl Brookhart, and Bob Jones. Two sophomores, Roger Williams and Bill Ingalls, were members of the Hi-Y Club. The sophomore class boasts of many representatives on the Honor Roll and thirty-one members in the Honor Society. The cast of the all-school play, Don t Take My Penney, was filled with many sophomore act- ors. Those who were given parts were Jane Bonney, Delores White and Lyle Kirkland. Jane did an excellent job with the leading roll, and we were certainly proud of her. This year's sophomore class has successfully taken part in all activities, and we sincerely hope that our junior year will be just as successful.

It is self evident that it takes a while for a new class to acquaint itself with its work, and respective offices, but at the close of the school year, an assembly for the entire student body was given by the freshmen class. Those attaining the well-earned distinction of becoming members of the t'Honor Roll for the first semester are as follows: Edith Beasley, Jeanette Beacraft, Frances Cooper, Carol Goshorn, Tena Hark- ness, John Hodge, Teresa Jinneman, Ronald Gamble, Eunice Kuhlmann, Ray Johnson, Doris Minor, Priscilla Peterson, Jim Pettrilli, Kathleen Schoknecht, George Simpson, Gloria Wagner, Aiice Williams, and Joan VVilson. The American zest for athletics and sports was shown by the efforts of the freshmen boys. Those going out for football were: Tom Clemans, Wayne Hall, Mike McGuinness, Basil Raines, and Gordon Rodland. The following participated in basketball: Dale Burt, Dick Carrol, Jack Crooks, Cliff Hubbard, Ray Johnson, Basil Raines, Gordon Rodland, and Delbert Stevens. -Boys who took part in the agricultural projects are: Albert Baraby, Raymond Froembgen, Bob Mc- Guire, Lawrence Place, Walter Nordquist, Wally Stach, and Wallace Stocker. The desire to help school and country was displayed by the freshman girls who took care of the flag each day. The school campus was also kept in order by fall and spring cleanings. Q. The freshmen girls sponsored an assembly for the Girls' Club, and last, but not least, they also pub- lished the Greenhorn Gazette, a freshman paper.

Page Twenty-Two Class History Most of the class of '45 started their career at Central Grade School in 1933. This date also mark- ed the beginning of another great organization, the Democrats. Many interesting events occurred during the following six years, including the episode of the clo- Sets, in which a few of the more talkative boys spent the morning devouring the teacher's lunch. Although we enjoyed our six year stay at Central, we were all anxious to get started in the new Junior High building on the Senior High campus. With the exception of a few ballroom dancing classes, under the direction of Miss McDonald, our seventh year of learning passed rather uneventfullyx Pete Peterson and Perry Williams seemed to lead the stronger sex in the Intriguing Passtime. The eighth grade was our biggest year in Junior High. During this year we started the first Jun- ior High School Girls' Club in Snohomish. Mrs. Foote was our adviser and Marianne Lillard our presl- dent. Some of the girls were also very active in Red Cross work. It seems there was quite a success- ful Red Cross 'picnic at Davies Beach that year also. We had quite a number of students who were so interested in horticulture that the faculty char- tered a. special bus in order that the most interested might attend the annual show in Seattle. About eight or ten girls were so fascinated that they decided the show was worth riding all the way on the floor to witness the coming event. However, after about ten miles of rough riding, they began to won- der if cushions were permitted in the classroom. Our Freshman year and party started out with a bang. Miss Klein, our faithful adviser, and Keith Gilbertson, our capable and willing president, along with their various committees, spent days of careful preparation for this sensational event. All activities were perfectly agreeable with the faculty pgesgnta Nevertheless, we are still wondering what was going on back stage during that famous game o ar ines. During our Freshman year, Japan declared war on the United States. We are hoping there was no connection between the two. This year was also the one in which our own Colleen Farrell was chos' en as the Sweetheart of the Boyis Club. She really put a few upper class girls on the spot that time. Two of our braver boys, Pete Peterson and Perry Williams, teamed up with Mary Pat McCready, a sophomore girl, and became our school yell leaders. Perry carried out his good work for the next two years, accompanied by the Bettys Stobb and Fawcett. Our Sophomore year started out with Chuck Poppino as president and Steve Smith as aur adviser. A few of 01111 b0y'S Were 011 the SCT1001 athletic teams, which made us very proud of them. This is where they got such a good start on their way to championship. Keith Gilbertson was again president of the class in our Junior year. Ours wa.s the first class to have a Sadie Hawkins dance. This was such a success that it no cloubt will become a traditional Junior dance in Snohomish High. It was also during the Junior year that a few of the boys put forth their initiative by'fo1'ming a male drill team. These boys performed quite successfully at the Globe Trotters' game. We began our Senior year courageously and fearlessly. Some of us had the attitude of living our last days while some thought Boy, Will I be glad when this is over! As president of the Senior class, Don Hofstrand had quite a hand full. But between Miss Fowler and him, somehow they always man- aged. to have a nice, quiet, unprejudiced, and successful class meeting. At one of the first of these nice little get-togethers the problem of the Senior Ball was brought before us. Merle Smith was elected as chairman, and under his direction and the hard work of his committees, the Sno Ball was really a highly successful event. If a vote had been taken, no doubt our class would have won any contest for containing the big- gest mouths in school. This was proven by the fact that six of our classmates were chosen as yell leaders. Smith, Surdyk and Gemmer led us during football season, and the three blonds, Coke, Sallie, and Margie, for the basketball season. No doubt it was partially because of such good cheering that we had the champion basketball team in the county. The girls were out to all the games, cheering them. on to victory. We really had a sensational team, due to the capable coaching of the ever popular Stan Bates and Larry Munizza. It was also during this year that the football team made a trip to Vancouver, B. C., accompanied by 2. number of anxious fans, mainly girls who couldn't stand the thought of their poor little friends in a strange foreign country all alone and unprotected. Of course there were many others who went along for the game too, and to keep up the spirit. CAh yes, we mean the spirit of the Bluebirdsj We were also accompanied by two of our teachers, Miss Hoem and Miss Rodgers. They went along to make our party legal. ' Many of the girls are still wondering why the school board had to wait until the last few weeks of our stay here to secure the leadership of Philip Cope, that good-looking referee who always has a smile for everyone he meets. Now we have come to the end of our days at dear old S. H. S. Many times we have thought how glad we would be when the day came, but now that it is drawing near, we look back with tear-dim- med eyes. We will remember the good old building where rooms were always so warmg the teachers who were helpful and cheerful, the study hall, where we attended so many lovely assembliesg and the cafeteria where our lunches were served so promptly. Now we are leaving all this in the hands of our younger, less experienced, friends. Although we are leaving, we will never forget the happy days we spent here. As we go on into the future, some of us into the armed forces, others out to join the ranks of millions of other working Americans, and still others on to higher schools of learning, our days in dear old S. H. S. will always be among our fondest memories. Page Twenty-Four Girls' Club Activities To start our year, we gave a party for the freshmen and their big sisters so that the new students could get acquainted with their classmates. We didn't have another social gathering until we sponsored the Hobo Hop. This was a costume dance with everyone dressing as hobos. Clarice Vail and Bob Jones were unanimously chosen to receive the prize for the best dressed couple. Winning a prize also were Sallie Johnson and Ed McBride in the waltzing contest. The committees working on the dance were as- sisted by Miss Ethel Smith. Later on in the year four delegates-Gerry Greenleaf, Annie Wilson, Goldimae Soderland, and Hellen Kelso-attended a Girls' Club Conference at Western Washington College of Education at Bellingham. The girls discussed club problems, and had a fine introduction to college life. In March, the Girls' Club sponsored for the student body a talk by Commander Frisbie of the U. S. Navy. He spoke on the problems of the returning war veteran. Traditional Daughter and Dad's Night was held in April. We did have a good time with our dads in games and relays. The climax of Girls Club activities came with the Mother and Daughter Tea in May. At this time the officers and the senior counsellors for the following year were announced. Panther Kittens Something new has been added to Snohomish High School-the Panther Kittens. This is a newly founded branch of the Ginls' Club made up of freshmen girls. This group was organized to help the girls adapt themselves more quickly to high school and Girls' Club. With the aid of their adviser, Miss Ethel Smith, the group has been very active. At the first of the year the Panther Kittens gave an assembly for the Girls' Club. The assembly was very good and was enjoyed by everyone. Throughout the year, they have had standing flag committees made up of freshmen girls, putting up the flag in the morn- ing and taking it down at night. The student body as a whole had not had a paper until the Panther Kittens turned out their Green Horn Gazette to give their upperclassmen a boost. The high school grounds occasionally have become quite cluttered with paper, giving the Panther Kittens another oppor- tunity to help their school by helping pick up the papers weekly.

And who were the yell leaders? Why, Lyle Surdyk, Merle Smith, and Millie Gemmer. We won't forget that memorable rep assembly when Perry, Don, Ed, and Roger sang their ver- sion oi Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes. They were not singing to show off their ability, but to unselfishly take up a collection for the Community Chest Fund. We know you'll remember when the pep assembly was held in the old gym, because everybody was crammed in like sardines. Unforget- able was the pep rally down town. We fairly flew down, but the climb uphill was a long one as we flraggted our feet in step with: Your pep, your pep, you've got it, now keep it: doggone you don't ose 1 .' Yes, we were very proud of our football team and our yell leaders, and we'll never forget them as they worked out in the mud and the rain. It was a long season, but we came out victorious. Yell Leaders Get that pep up and keep it there, was the motto of our three blonde yell leaders-Sallie Johnson, Margie Anderson, and Colleen Farrell. How? By old yells, new yells, bigger and better yells, skits, speakers, music, and hard work. We know you will remember the memorable day when Mr. Bates and Mr. Munizza led that super Rouse 'em, Douse 'em yell. Radio skits written ty Miss Snavely added much humor to the assem- blies. Fox variety one of the pep assemblIes was held outside and Lucky Ducky again made its ap- pearance as mascot of the Panthers. Yes, and the band was always on deck to keep up the spirit. Their arrangement of Red River Valley is still remembered. And We couldn't forget those singing commercials that started you off- Bates, Bates, Bates, the coach to chase the tournament blues, For peppier, snappier, basketball gameseBates's, the coach for youse! The girls, Sallie, Coke, and Margie. certainly aroused many comments when they appeared in those nifty, good-looking, princess-styled dresses of red and white. The local papers made several comments about the yell leaders, the pep and sportsmanship of our Snohomish High School. You see with the student cooperation and the interested, hard-working, modest yell leaders, the year was indeed a suc- cess. Both are to be congratulated. Page Twenty-Six a ii llf' fi Boys' Club t Every boy enrolled in high school automatically becomes a member of the Boys' Club. Last year in its annual election, it chose as officers for the coming year: Lewis Goshorn, presidentg Kenneth Hol- comb, vice presidentg and Edwin Stocker, secretary-treasurer. Among the programs featured by the club was the annual Boys' and Girls' Club exchange pro- gram. This is an entertainment presented to the Girls' Club, comprised of talent selected from the Boys' Club. It consisted of musical numbers and various entertainments, and in return the girls spon- sored a similar program for the boys. Our club's activity was definitely hampered by the loss of two officers-Kenneth Holcomb, now in the service of his country, and Edwin Stocker who dropped school in mid-term to develop his farm- ing practices. Their places were never officially filled by re-election, but two members, Earl Brook- hart and Theodore Beckmeyer, took over the respective official duties upon request of the president. Shown in the picture are Mr. Miles, adviser: Kenneth Holcomb, vice president, and Edwin Stocker, secretary-treasurer. The president, Lewis Goshorn, was attending an F. F. A. meeting in Pullman at the time the picture was taken. Panther Patrol During the football season the boys watched the field, took down the ticket stand, and assisted ticket sellers and ticket takers. Mr. Miles, with the aid of a patrol boy, announced the play-by-play description of the football games over the public address system Other members of the Panther Patrol worked every night of the entire basketball season patroll- ing the main entrance to the gym, the floor, and the upper doors. During the tournament the boys helped with pep rallies, in addition to performing their regular duties.

Spanish Club Our Spanish Club determined this year to have an active group Consequently, a meeting was held to elect these officers: president, Lorraine Simpson: vice president, Beverly Waggoner: secretary, Stuart Knappg treasurer, Glenna Whitey publicity manager, Lynwood Smith. The officers met with Miss O'Keefe, adviser, to draw up a constitution arranging for a meeting on the second Wednesday of each month alternating between second and fifth periods. A initiation party was held. Guests were Mr. Wright and three Mexicans, who entertained with guitar' music and singing. The Spanish Club sponsored a, Pan-American assembly on April 16. A movie, Wings Over the An- dies, was presented to the student body.

Perhaps you remember seeing them at 'the Globe Trotter's game or at the County tournament. The also entertained at Paine Field at the Christmas show. The star of the team, Peggy Lee, thrilled the crowd with her long dives. Her sister, Patty, who left school at the half, was also very versatile. The captain was Emma Falkenstein, and our most exper- ienced tumbler, Betty Seymour, was noted for her ability to walk on her knees. And we know you remember Dolores Terry and that water trick she performed. Other outstanding tumblers were Lois Johnson, Thelma Culver, Phyllis Vetter, and Mildred Evans. Newcomers to the team this year were Caroline Stevens, Jeanette Beacraft, Nylene Andrews, Beverly Miller, Gloria Walker, Irene Hockett, and Frances Remick. The picture in the lower right hand corner shows some of the produce collected each year as a donation for the Orthopedic Hospital in Seattle. Page Twenty-Eight U all os, an '31 ,gb 1297 x '.'- Rm Page Tweniy-Nme Hi-Y Club Many of you no doubt have often wondered just what HI-Y is and to whom it applies. This year we hope that a better understanding of its purposes has been made possible through the many projects un- dertaken and successfully completed by HI-Y. As you know, it is a comparatively new club in our school. Each year it has grown and prospered and done new things, and at this time its accomplish- ments are recognized as outstanding in the Pacific Northwest Area. HI-Y is a branch of the Young Men's Christian Association for older' boys in high school and is a national organization, its purpose to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and commun- ity high standards of Christian character. The membership consists of outstanding leaders, potential leaders, and those who are sympathetic with and endeavoring to live the purpose of HI-Y, who join as an opportunity to serve rather than to seek special privilege. Our' adviser for the 1944-45 school year has been Russell E. Day, a newcomer to our faculty last fall who has had previous HI-Y experience, and the yearfs membership has consisted of Jack Minor, presi- dentg Denney Hubbard, vice president, Bob Carlson, secretary, Dick Rodland, treasurer, Pete Peterson, sergeant-at-arms, Carroll Clark, Hugh Davis, Don Hofstrand, Johnny Samples, Perry Williams, seniors, Dea.n Minor, Don lMinor, Jack Norvell, Max Weed, Dick Wilson, juniors, Bill Ingalls, and Roger Wil- liams, sophomores. A leaders' and officers' conference was held at Mt. Vernon on September 17 for the HI-Y Clubs of Snohomish, Skagit, Whatcom, and Island Counties. The various problems confronting HI-Y were dis- cussed, and the clubs in attendance traded ideas and suggestions. We are especially proud that at this conference Dick Rodland was elected president of the newly organized Northwest District of the Pa- cific Northwest Area HI-Y Clubs, which may be considered quite an honor and distinction for him and the club as well. The representatives from Snohomish were Mr. Day, Jack Minor, Bob Carlson and Dick Rodland. With the aid of the faculty and administration, members for next year were chosen in a new and different manner in an effort to insure a group as representative of the school as possible and were initiated in May, the initiation consisting of both a formal and inforimal ceremony. The formal cere- mony was characterized by its dignity and beauty, the infomal by its prankishness and hilarity. HI-Y is primarily a service group. In this capacity it presented on December 6 an assembly, all the funds from which, amounting to 2B106.00,'were contributed to the Warm Prisoners' Relief Fund. HI-Y was grateful to Miss Hoem, Miss Snavely, Miss Rogers, Mr. Iverson, Mr. Gar'man, and numerous stud- ents for their encouragement and assistance. An additional contribution of 5290.00 to this same fund was made by selling programs for the County Basketball Tournament. As a gesture toward community service, the group furnished free programs for four out of the five home football games and for the county league basketball home games. A much more significant act was the construction and dedication of a war memorial plaque honoring former Snohomish High School boys who have made the supreme sacrifice in World War II. Orchids for their contributions to this ven- ture go to Mr. Whitesmith and the students who assisted in the metal work on the plaque. The boys have conributed much toward community and world service. At the same time they have had lots of fun together. To start their social year the I-II-Y held its big Barn Dance on October 20 af- ter the exciting Sedro Woolley football game. With the old gym decorated in the latest cow barn fash- ions and packed with local students and visitors from Sedro Woolley and other neighboring schools, everyone had a rousing good time. The formal dinner dance on April 13 was a delightful function which marked the high spot of the year. The dinner was served by candle light in the home economics room by Miss Anderson's Home Economics class. At the dance following, the girls in their spring formals added to the decorativeness of the flower-trimmed speech room. The mothers of the club members were given special recognition and honor at an inspiring Moth- ers' Breakfast held for them on Mothers' Day. A special program was prepared with the mothers as guests of honor.

Page Thirty-Th ree Student Council The student council, consisting of the presidents of the various home rooms and classes, was very active this year. With Perry Williams as our president we undertook for our first project the improve- ment of school conduct. The results were amazing, for a few weeks. Then a problem of yell-leaders confronted us. After weeks of debating, we amended our constitu- tion: in the future yell-leaders will be elected twice a year!-before football season and before basket- ball season. In January a student leaders' conference was held in Everett. Our council decided who should represent Snohomish High School at this conference. They were: Perry Williams, Keith Gil- bertson, Sallie Johnson, Ann Dobbs, Frances Merritt, Margaret Anderson, Colleen Farrell, Geraldine Greenleaf, Bob Jones, Beverly Waggoner, Don Hofstrand, Clifford Hubbard, Jack Minor, Dean Minor, Annie Wilson, and Ed Stocker. When the semester ended, Keith Gilbertson was elected student body president. In March we re- ceived a letter from Tahoma High School stating that representatives would like to visit our school. A welcoming committee greeted the students. Later the student council sponsored an assembly in their honor. Plans were made for ourj annual play-day which will be held in late spring. Next September w'e plan to have a hand book ready for the incoming freshmen in order to acquaint them with the customs and miles of our school. Our officers were: Presidents, Perry Williams and Keith Gilbertson, vice president, Pete Petersong secretary, Frances 'Merrittg treasurer, Colleen Farrell, adviser, Stan Bates.

Firemen To organize the firemen of Snohomish High School, Keith Gilbertson was elected Fire Chief by the student body at the beginning of the first semester. He in turn appointed the firemen, who were assign- ed to strategic spots throughout the school building during fire drills. Drills were conducted intermit- tently throughout the school year, making sure that rapid dismissal was possible in case of fire. Dismissal of the entire student body was carried out in sixty seconds or less. The small amount of time required to clear the building was considered excellent since all the windows in the building had to be closed before the drill was completed. The firemen would like to thank the student body for the fine cooperation during fire drills through- out the entire year.

Perry Williams, who is also a fireman, was absent when the picture was taken. Drill Team This year the drill team had a very successful season. Besides drilling at games, they participated in various other activities. From the group of seventeen girls, Kitty Stevens was chosen as captain. Their first performance was at a pep assembly for one of the basketball games. A little later they surprised the spectators by having a flashlight drill. This aroused much favorable comment. Due to the lack of material because of the war, instead of drilling in the customary uniforms the girls wore dark skirts and white blouses. This gave them a very pleasing appearance. Besides drilling, the team sponsored several noon and activity dances. The money from these was put into the student fund for uniforms. The drill team also sold tickets and ushered at the all-school play. During the annual Snohomish County basketball tournament, the girls drilled at one of the games. They also ushered at all games. The final appearance made by the drill team was at a pep assembly. At this time they gave a comedy drill in which they illustrated a typical drill team turn-out. The audience, as well as the girls, enjoyed it very much. With the completion of the basketball season, the girls maintained their home room and planned new drills and routines for next year. Miss Lois Ross, who was always ready and eager to give help, was the adviser. DRILL TEAM, First Rank-Grace Johnson, Geraldine Ricci, Frances Cooper, Beverly Waggoner, Kitty Stevens.

One of the important phases of this program in this high school is vocational agriculture. All boys who study vocational agriculture in public secondary schools have the privilege of becoming members of the national organization known as Future Farmers of America, or F.F.A. as it is commonly known. The F. F. A. is an important activity, having its origin in the vocational agriculture classes offered by the high school. The members learn how to conduct and participate in a public meeting, to buy and sell cooperatively, to assume and help solve community problems, to finance themselves: to solve their own problems, and to realize many other objectives which will later' prove valuable to the boys as farm- ers and citizens. The national organization is composed of chartered state associations which, in turn, are made up of local chapters having vocational agriculture, such as the Snohomish chapter. Membership is entirely voluntary. In order that due credit be given to an individual member for his achievements, various ranks of degrees of membership have been set up by the national constitution. There are four grades of active membership. The first rank is that of Green Hand, which the freshman boys usually attain when initiated and which entitles them to wear the bronze pin. At the pres- ent time the Snohomish F. F. A. has twenty-five Green-hand members. ,Some of the most active Green- nands who have supervised home projects under Way are: Wally Stach, Bob !McGuire, Albert Baraby, Dick Larson, Wallace Stocker, Ray Froembgen, Gene Simpson, Lawrence Place, and Walter Nordquist. After completing one year of agriculture, a boy is entitled to become a Chapter Farmer, providing he meets certain requirements and accomplishments in connection with his home project and his school agriculture program. This is the last degree which the local F. F. A. chapter can confer on a member. The Chapter Farmer is entitled to wear the silver pin. Some of the outstanding Chapter Farmers, of which we have twenty-four, are: Earl Brookhart, Leonard Harbert, Pete Van Soest, Panos Tsiknes, David Greenleaf, Bob Schick, Roland Hintze, Stanley Vail, Ernest Egelstad, Ray Ohlde, Lewis GOSh0rn, Chris Stuehm, and Harold Porter. The next degree, that of State Farmer, must be conferred by the State Association of Future Farmers, at their annual state convention, which is held at the State College of Washington each spring. In order to become a State Farmer, a boy must have an outstanding program of supervised farming at home, show outstanding leadership in F. F. A. and other school and community activities, show pro- ficiency in parliamentary law by leading a group discussion, and show good scholarship in all school subjects. The Snohomish chapter is proud to have three active State Farmers: Ben Spada, who is the vice president of the state association, Edwin Stocker, and Kenneth Holcomb. These boys are entitled to wear the golden charm, emblematic of the State Farmer degree. This year the local chapter has four candidates for the degree of State Farmer: Standley Stocker, Roland Hintze, Lewis Goshorn, and Duane Kuhlman. The fourth and highest degree which can be attained is the degree of American Farmer. This de- gree can be given onlyl by the National Association when it holds its annual convention in Kansas City. Only a few boys ever reach this high achievement. Not once in the history of vocational agriculture has a boy from any high school of Snohomish County ever been granted the degree of American Farmer. However, this year, Snohomish will have a candidate in the name of Cliff Bailey, who graduated from our school last spring. The decision as to whether Cliff will be successful will not be known until next fall. The above gives an idea of the national scope as well as the local and state nature of the organiza- tion. After graduation from high school, members are allowed to retain their active membership for three years. One of the outstanding F. F. A. members who graduates this year is Ben Spada, who is vice presi- dent of the State Association of Future Farmers of America. Ben was the winner of the Firestone Award of S230 for having the best supervised farming program and F. F. A. leadership and activities of any boy in the State of Washington holding the State Farmer degree. Edwin Stocker, also of the local chapter, won the second prize of 5200. Ben also won the State Grange Award for his leadership and accomplishments. Explanation of Pictures: TOP PICTURE-The members of the Snohomish Chapter of F. F.

JE- ld Sea Scouts The Snohomish Sea Scouts were first organized in 1942. At that time the Navy gave Snohomish a fortyl-foot torpedo retriever built in Bristol, R. I. It has an excellent Navy-designed hull, and is valued at S1C,00C. In 1943 the ship was reorganized with ghe Snohomish Lions Club as sponsors and Steve Smith. skipper. Since that time the ship has been rebuilt to accomodate its varying loads more effi- cient j,'. The ship now has bunks and mattresses for eleven persons during long cruises. The dining table seats a like number, and a complete new galley with sink, lockers, sea-going stove, and ice box, serves meals easily to a full ship. A pilot house forward enables navigators to handle the ship safely at all times. Ample room for charts and navigation table simplifies cruising. It also provides radio headquarters and instruction space for group training. The upper and forward decks provide ample lounging space for 8 to 10 per- sons when weather outside is warm enough. Cruises this year have covered 1400 nautical miles. The ship has been through Deception Pass eigh- teen times and across the Straits of Juan de Fuca four times. Victoria was visited twice during Aug- ust. Most of the trips have been through or around the San Juan Islands. Groups participating are not always Sea Scouts. They always handle the ship, but Boy Scout troops, Hi-Y, Sunday Schools, science classes, Lions Club and townspeople have been included in trips ranging from as far south as Seattle and Hoods Canal, north to the white-capped Straits of Georgia, and west to Victoria. Plans for 1945 are to again share the ship's opportunities as far as time and gaso line will permit. We have two ambitions for 1945-to advance as many Sea Scouts as possible to higher achieve- ment brackets, and to so impress the community with the worthwhileness of the project that we can somehow obtain a suitable marine engine for the ship. This would enable us to set up a program of longer cruises with greater safety and comfort. Someday, when the crew is sea-seasoned, the lockers groaning with food, and a sturdy engine pushing us along, well-who knows? Cruising the San Juans - By Sea Scout Lynwood Smith I Scoutsland skipper were tense with excitement as their forty-foot motor cruiser glided smoothly into the tiny harbor at Matia Island. This island, one of the San Juan archipelago, was named by the Spanish explorer Eliza in 1790 when exploring the Pacific Northwest. I We were keyed up for different reasons: the skipper and I, the two-man Sea Scout crew, were anx- lous because of our responsibility for easing the Sea Scout Ship Whitfield safely through the reefs to a safe anchorage: the ten Scouts of Troop 35, our passengers for this cruise, were anxious to be ashore to see first hand the remnants of local history enacted on this now deserted islet. I knew all was well when I heard the command. Let go the anchor, followed by a resounding splash. This meant the anchor was now on bottom and would soon be digging its expansive flukes into the hard sandy bottom to hold our ship against any storm. Following the command, Make the anchor fast, there was a scramble aft tothe dinghy. This ordeal over, we crossed the short strip of sandy shore and started up the steep bluff facing the sea. We stopped once in our arduous climb to watch the scout who volunteered for the remaining trips with our midget means of ship-to-shore trans- portation. As we neared the top of the rise from the beach, we began to wonder what Matia held in store for us. Adventure was ahead, for we were living off the country as much as possible. To my delight, I saw wild blackberry brambles full of ripe berries. Visions of steaming dishes of blackberry sauce filled my mind while I hastened back along my trail to organize a picking crew. During this time, Joe Greenleaf had decided to try his luck at fishing. Perhaps he could catch enough of the scrappy little rock cod to help on the supper menu. He srambled over the crumbling rocks lining the precipitous shoreline, slipping and sliding, not caring whether or not he got his feet wet because his big moment soon came. He had a strike, hooked his fish, and the battle was on. Soon after this news carrier disappeared in the woods lining the trail, we heard still other shouts. Joe got a big ling cod. It must weigh at least twenty-five pounds. After what seemed like an eternity we had enough berries for a meal or two. We hurried as fast as possible down the now well-defined trail. When we finally arrived at the spot where we had invaded the island, nothing was to be seen of the fish until we discovered one of our Scouts proudly carrying the monstrous head. The remainder of the fish was already in the ship's ice box. But the head was the source of many a story, for Joe had had a real tussle with the fish. When it was in such an exhausted state that it could be hand- led, he realized he had no gaff hook. Not the least bit disturbed by this discovery, he worked the fish up into a V-shaped crevice in the rocks nearby and stood it on its head until it stopped flopping. Even after the fish was dead, he had quite a time dragging it back along the shore line to the beach to be dressed. I never did see the cod all in one piece, but it sure looked swell, baked to a crisp brown on the outside and steamy white on the inside. It felt still better stowed away under our belts, mixed in with two or three helpings of hot tangy blackberries, plus all the other good things we had for supper that night. We were all tired and happy as our faithful ship carried us on to new islands, new an- chorages, and new adventures. Page Thirty-Eight Ship Personnel S. J. Smith, Skipper Kenneth Lauerman, A.

They have sung sacred, classical, and popular music and have given at least two per- formances a month all year. Two string ensembles are expected to become the nucleus of an orchestra next year. The senior en- semble was composed of Marianne Russell, Kitty Kirchgessner, Joe Schilter, and Clarence Neumann. The junior ensemble included Joe Schilter, Clarence Neumann, Pat Fankhauser, Billy Riposa, and Ruth Johansen. Their public performances were for faculty and school board dinners and P.-T. A. The outstanding musical events of the year were the Orthopedic benefit program, the Christmas pro- gram, Spring Concert, Band Concert, Northwest Washington Music Meet at Renton, and the Festival at Everett. An audience of over twelve hundred people heard the band, girls' glee, and mixed choir at the Orthopedic program. On March 16 the band, junior choir, girls' glee, and mixed choir presented their an- nual concert to a well-packed house. We'd like to preserve a copy of the program for posterity. BAND- Star Spangled Banner, Black Jack March, Three Blind Mice, Stardust, Entry of the Bojares, Red Rhythm Valley, Colonel Bogey, JUNIOR CHOIR-De Gospel Train, Rowing Song, GIRLS' CHOIR-Panis Angeli- cus, Giannnia Mia, MIXED CHOIR-Dear Land of Home, A Violin Singing in the Street, Pospodi Pomilui, Ave Maria, Ole Ark's A Moverin, Roll, Chariot. The following week on March 24, Snohomish participated in the Northwest Washington Music Festi- val at Renton. 'Seven vocalists, two instrumentalists, and the Melodiers performed to win the following ratings: Phyllis Vetter, t'My Johann, Superior, Barbara Chaney, Down in the Forest, Superior, Janet Harris, By the Bend of the River, Excellent, Betty Morse, Comin' Through the Rye, Excellent, Jane Britt, Ave Maria, Excellent, Perry Williams, Song of the Open Road. Excellent, Carolyn Barry, Down in the Forest, Good, Marilyn Stocker, piano, Scotch Poem, Superior, Thelma Culver, Jr. Div. Trumpet, Good, Melodiers, A Spirit Flower, Superior. Of the fourteen small vocal ensembles that per- formed, the Melodiers were one group of only three who received a superior rating. Our year was rounded out by the Everett Festival, Baccalaureate Service, and Graduation. Looking back, there were some very encouraging moments which lead Miss Snavely to predict bigger and better musical organizations for 1945-46. Page Forty-Two The Thespians Act well your party there all the honor lies -this is the motto of the Thespian Honor Society. Those Thespians who participated in various dramatic activities or helped in the production and thus won honor for themselves are: Barbara Chaney, Sadie Fields, Irene Evans, Delores White, Le- nore Schaus, Lyle Kirkland, Jack Grover, Hugh Davis, Jack Crooks, Walter Osborn, Don Dixon, Rena ifelndrews, Jane Bonney, Colleen Farrell, Bixby Bonney, Geraldine Greenleaf, Grace Johnson, and Jack mor. At the beginning of the school year Thespians and their friends were able to go, by car if you please, to see George Gershwin's 'iPorgy and Bess at the Metropolitan in Seattle. This was the first folk opera that some of them had seen. Boys and girls interested in dramatics flocked to the audition room to try out for parts in the All-School Play, Don't Take My Penny. Those who were a bit skeptical about their acting abilities got their first taste of the stage, and liked it. CDelores White, who played the part of a lovable grand mother, did a particularly fine jofb.J Honorable mention went to the whole cast. Miss Ruth Onerheim directed the play. The set was done by Russell Day. At the half, Miss Eleanor I-Ioem took over the troupe sponsorship from Miss Onerheim. Eight new Thespians were added at the end of the play. An informal, candle-light ceremony was held in front of the fireplace in the Speech Room. The guests of the club that evening were members of the play cast who weren't initiated, and stage hands who helped in the production. Various Thespian meetings were held throughout the year to encourage dramatic interests. The group learned more about make-up techniques, stage-craft, and acting. The Senior Play, t'Our Town, Pulitzer Prize-Winning drama by Thornton Wilder, was chosen with the idea in mind that it would be quite different from the ordinary run of high school farces. Ques- tions asked from the audience, the few stage properties used, the lack of scenery, entrances from the front of the stage-all of these went toward making an unusual production. Jack Minor had a particularly heavy role as the kindly, philosophical stage manager who told about life in Our ToWn. The play rather brought to mind the idea that all the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. Well, it's about curtain time for the Class of '45, No more will these Senior actors tread our well- worn stage!

Page Forty-Four , xg x 1 N J' 1 , 11' W ff X1 M13 x 2 Hobo Hop On Friday night, the 17th of November, the active, up and coming Snohomish Girls' Club sponsored a. very successful dance. CPaid Adv.D At first there was a great deal of discussion on the subject of what kind of a dance we should spon- sor, for We had to be sure that our club was well represented and that it would show what a refined group of young ladies we are. It was finally decided that we should have-not a formal dance-not a dance in afternoon dresses, but a Hobo Hop, alias the Bums' Bounce . On the day of the dance the well planned decorations were still a little doubtful, so Miss Smith, our adviser, and a handful of ambitious girls confiscated every fine piece of junk on the campus. That evening when the guests came tripping in, I say tripping because most of the suspenders had decayed, they saw the old gym as a completely converted place. It was beautifully C?J decorated with a handsome stuffed tramp, a garbage dump, a shack town, and tin cans lying in various places to make it look even more attractive. The guests were fashionably dressed in what the well-dressed tramp wears . They had dirty faces, red noses, filthy clothes, and strange shapes bulging from their back pockets. The bulge Why the tra- ditional can of beans, of course! At intermission musical entertainment was provided by the Melodiers under the able direction of Miss Marguerite Snavely, and the three bums with the biggest bulges in their back pockets-Norval Nash, Hugh Davis, and Johnny Samples. A prize was given to the worst looking guest who was none other than-Clarice Vail. Like all successful dances at S. H. S. the dance was a tolo, and the girls deserve a lot of credit, for the old gym was really filled. A good time was had by all. Those on the committees were: General Chairman, Sally Johnsong Programs, Dorothy Gemmer, Irene Evans, Mary Jane Hubbardg Publicity, Rosie Simpson, Carolyn Barry, Program, Ann Sorgenfrei, Gladys Kinchg Clean-up, Helen Seal, Jerry Nelson, Theresa Betzig, Irene Betzigg Decorations, Mar- garet Anderson, Colleen Farrell, Eileen Amundsong Music, Sadie Fields, Punch, Catherine Stecher, An- nie Wilson, Ethel Steeleg Patrons and Patronesses, Mr. and Mrs. Bates, Mr. and Mrs. Day, and Mr. and Mrs. Storms. Senior Sno Ball The Senior Sno Ball under the direction of Merle Smith turned out to be one of the important social events of the year. Dave Baker and his band from Everett provided the music. Eileen Amundson, Keith Gilbertson, Pete Peterson, Frances Merritt, Rosemary Simpson, Sally Mc- Guinness, Sallie Johnson, Margaret Anderson, Bob Carlson, Shirley Larimer, Jack Minor, and Denney Hubbard were responsible for the gorgeous decorations that presented a winterland atmosphere. Various colored lights shone upon the enlarged snow ball, which was suspended from the ceiling. White paper icicles, surrounding the big snow ball, and branches of evergreen along the wall, touched with white, completed the snow scene. Cotton-covered programs wese producel by many girls with the aid of Miss Seobury and her multi- graphing department. Among those who helped were Irene Evans, Catherine Stecher, and Ethel Lamp- man. The refreshment committee consisted of Goldimae Soderland, Alene Schellenberger, and Lorraine Simpson. Punch was served to all. Entertainment was furnished by Barbara Chaney, Richard Jewett, Carolyn Barry, and Miss Snavely. Sadie Hawkins Dance The Junior Class of 1945 held the annual super-duper Sadie Hawkins Dance on February 23. The theme, Lil Abner and Daisy Mae, was carried out in a clever manner. Plate lunches were served at three stores: I-Iawg's Troff, Pappy's Pop Shop, and Hairless Joe's Hangout. Mammy Yokum observed the dancers from an elaborate hammock made of a gunny sack stretched between a barbed-wire fence and a tree, while Daisy Mae and Lil Abner peered out from behind a large fir. The Hitchin' Post, situated near Skunk Hollow, was undoubtedly the most popular feature of the dance. The Hitchins were performed by Marryin' Snav, assisted by Officer Smith. The double ring ceremony with red and blue chicken rings was enjoyed by all!! There were 62 couples present and it was indeed great success. The net profit of about S60 was used to finance the Junior Prom. Gloria Wagner and Earl Brookhart were chosen Daisy Mae and Lil Abner. The committee chairmen were: Leona DeRidder, Anne Sorgenfrei, Dick Wilson, .Tack Norvell, Rena Andrews, Maxine Weed, Edna Hubbard, Bob Hanberg, Phyllis Vetter, Lois Johnson, Linda Salvada- lena, and Dean Minor, president.

BOTTOM-Hofstrand bows to Sedro Woolley's 235 pound Schopf C167 and the speedy halfback, Nemo, C255 after picking up 6 yards off right tackle. The football squad of 1944 is rated among the all-time great teams of Snohomish High School's long football history. The red and white Panthers held the undisputed championship of both the North- west 'Washington League and the Snohomish County A League. , Under the excellent coaching and leadership of Stan Bates, the powerful Panthers appeared to be in a class of their own in the County League, having outclassed their county opponents in all departments and trouncing each team by at least a four touchdown margin. This was .the third straight county cham- pionship for Snohomish, the Panthers having lost no county games in the last three seasons. The Pan- thers placed seven men on the 1944 All-County A League football eleven, these being: Bob Schick, tackleg Jack Minor, centerg Dwaine Lambert, guardg Pete Peterson, endg Jack Norvell, quarterbackg Don Hof- strand, halfbackg and Keith Gilbertson, fullback. Honorable mention went to Ken Holcomb, Dick R05- land, Dean Minor, and Don Minor. ' Snohomish walked off with the tough Northwest League crown for the first time in all its history by walloping six other league contenders. Among these were the rugged Sedro Woolley Cubs and the strong Marysville and Anacortes teams. These eight Panthers were selected for the all-star squad of the North- west League: Pete Peterson, endg Bob Schick, tackleg Ken Holcomb and Dwaine Lambert, guardsg Jack Minor, centerg Jack Norvell, quarterbackg Don Hofstrand and Keith Gilbertson, halfbacks. Ed McBride, end, and Dick Rodland, quarterback, were chosen for the second team. The other regular of the Sno- homish first team was Earbie Holstine. Earbie was inducted into the army in rnidseason, and during the remainder of the season his spot was filled by various starters. Keith Gilbertson was awarded for the second successive season the Lion's Club trophy, having been selected by the squad as the most inspirational player.

Superior driving power and heads-up ball told the story. ANACORTES Continuing to play good football, the Panthers dominated the Anacortes game with their fast charging line and hard-driving backs to easily defeat the Seahawks, 19-0. Anacortes was packed by many pre-season dopesters to be a big power in Northwest League play. The Panthers again scored twice in the first quarter. The opening touchdown came when Hofstrand found Peterson with a beautiful 20 yard pass. Four minutes later the Snohomish County boys had an- other touchdown 'when Hofstrand pounded his way over from the three yard line. His kick for the extra point was good. MT. VERNON Falling into a mid-season slump, the Panthers looked poor in defeating Mt. Vernon only 13-0. Show- ing only fair scoring power in the first half, Snhomish was unable to score in the second half. Mt. Vernon threatened once in the first quarter only to be held on the 15 yard stripe by the strong forward wall of the Panthers. Climaxing a long drive late in the first quarter, Gilbertson drove over from the 2 yard line early in the second quarter. Hofstrand's kick brought the score to 7-0. Recovering a Mt. Vernon fumble on the Bulldog 20 late in the second quarter, the Panthers quickly powered their way to the last score of the evening. MARYSVILLE Using Coach Stan Bates' newly devised and perfected offense, the inspired Panthers downed Marys- ville inatheir fourth straight shutout of the season, 24-0. Taking the opening kick-off, the Panther grid machine drove down the field with Hofstrand mak- ing the first touchdown. Snohomish scored again in the second quarter when Hofstrand flipped a pass to Norvell. Later in the second quarter Hofstrand to Peterson accounted for another touchdown. The hard-charging Panther line consistently dominated play, tearing huge holes in the Tomahawk line or holding to give the passer plenty of time. Jack Norvell's running and Earbie Holstine's line play were particularly outstanding. Page Fifty :fa-cfs 9 Q ll ,. 6d 4' chac Qual!

It was the only league defeat for Edmonds. The Panthers swung right into the spirit of things by rolling up 19 points in the first quarter. On the SeC0Y1d Scrimmage Play of the game for the Panthers, Hofstrand cut loose with a 60 yard touch- down jaunt. The second and third touchowns were made by Norvell on exceptionally long runs around the left end. A short pass from Hofstrand to Peterson brought in the first conversion of the evening. The second squad finished the first and second quarters. In the final quarter Edmonds connected on a long pass bringing -the ball down to the one yard line. Even with a penalty which gave Edmonds five downs to go that one yard, they were unable to score against a stubborn and inspired second team. Don Stites uncorked a high 60 yard punt which ended all scoring hopes for Edmonds. SEDRO WOOLLEY With the Northwest League title at stake, Snohomish set itself whole-heartcdly to the task of beating the hairy-chested boys from Sedro Woolley. This Was without a doubt the game the Panthers had been pointing for. And after the first two scrimmage plays of the game the Snohomish boys knew they could do it, for in those two plays they had rolled 80 yards for the first touchdown. The Panthers went on to pound 19 points out of the Cubs while holding their mighty offense scoreless. On the first scrimmage play Hofstrand raced 68 yards to the Sedro 12 from where Norvell took it wide around left end and over. Hofstrand's place-kick split the uprights perfectly. In the second quarter of the game the Panthers were on the move again. This time with perfectly working laterals, the Panther machine moved to the one yard stripe. Norvell took it around end again for the second Snohomish touchdown. It was all Sedro's game in the third quarter, but the Panthers took the offensive again in the fourth quarter with Norvell going' 53 yards around end behind some excellent blocking for the final tally of the evening. MONROE After the big game of the week previous, the Panthers let up a little and had trouble in defeating Monroe, 24-0. Monroe was all fired to upset the applecart and never quit fighting until the last gun. This was Snohomish's seventh straight shut-out. The initial touchdown came on a lateral from Gilbertson to Norvell in the first quarter. After a nice pass from Hofstrand to Peterson, good for 24 yards, Gilbertson plunged over from the four yard line for the second touchdown in the first quarter. Norvell, following expert interference, skirted left end from seven yards out for the third touch- down. Intercepting a pass on Monroe's 35, Norvell again hit pay-dirt for the final score in the fourth quarter. VANCOUVER COLLEGE, B. C. With plenty of good ball playing on the part of both teams, Snohomish's goal line was crossed for the only times of the season when the Panthers defeated Vancouver College, B. C., 38-14. Recovering a fumble on Vancouver's 35 yard line in the openning kick-off, Snohomish drove to its first touchdown in two plays with Gilbertson carrying the ball across. Three minutes later, after a sus- tained drive, Norvell carried the ball over for the Panther's second touchdown. Behind some excellent blocking Hofstrand raced 40 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter with a minute gone. He passed to Peterson for the extra point. The Panthers scored once again in the final quarter, with Hofstrand kicking the extra point. ARLINGTON . The Red and White Panthers completely outclassed the Eagles in swamping them, 44-0. Arlington was unable to cross the midfield stripe and registered only one first down. 1 UPPER LEFT, FIRST ROW, left to right-Ken Holcomb, Duane Lambert, Ed McBride, Jack Norvell, Dick Rodland, Keith Gilbertson.

Baker, and one to Everett. This showed that Snohomish rated highly as a power in state basketball, for Bellingham plaeed second in the state tourney, Everett third, and Kirkland fifth. The Panthers, not being content to play only county teams, picked strong non-conference foes for early-season encounters, and defeated such powerful quintets as Anacortes, Bothell, Buckley, and Port Angeles, losing only to the rangy Kangaroos of Kirkland. Snohomish also defeated Lincoln High School of Seattle, State Champions, behind closed doors, by a score of 28 to 24. The Panthers swept through the county Class A league with ease, to take the title by defeating Edmonds, Marysville, Arlington, and Monroe, twice each, winning eight straight gamesg Monroe was the only team to give them much trouble. The home-town aggregation continued its winning ways by stepping through the County Tourna- ment'to cop three straight games without difficulty. Marysville and Twin Cities fell before the sharp- shooting Panthers by large margins, and Sultan was defeated in the championship battle by 30 points. Four Snohomish players were nominated for ,all-county honors by the press: Bob Carlson, Pete Peterson, and Clyde Temple made the first team, and Ed McBride was placed on the second five. Having completed the battle for county honors, Coach Bates' boys sought high goals in the North- west District Tournament staged at Mt. Vernon. In the opening game of the District play-off, the Panthers were spilled by a red-hot Mt. Baker team, which played inspired basketball. However, the following afternoon, Snohomish defeated the towering Concrete quintet, 37 to 20, and remained in the run for a State Tournament berth. Nooksack Valley was the next victim of the rejuvenated Snoho- mish boys, and on the final evening of play, Snohomish downed a stubborn Anacortes five by a score of 26 to 19. Clyde Temple was chosen as all-district forward by the Everett Herald, while Bob Carl- son was given this honor by the Bellingham Herald. Following the District Tournament, Snohomish played the Bellingham Red Raiders in a pre- state tournament game at the Snohomish High School gym, and dropped a hard-fought battle, after leading throughout the entire ball game. Bob Carlson played outstanding ball. Finishing higher than any previous Snohomish basketball team in history, the 1945 Panther quin- tet won sixth place in the 21st annual State Tournament at the University of Washington pavilion in Seattle. The Panthers, the surprise team of the tournament in the opinion of many sports writers and newscasters, won two games and lost two in the big meet, toughest of all high school basketball tournaments. Entered as the third place club of the Northwest District, Snohomish was conceded little chance to go far, but battled its way to the semi-final round and was still in the meet when the final games were played. By that time the underdog position given them before had made them the fav- orites of most of the fans. Perhaps no previous Snohomish team had been called upon to face as tough a schedule as the '45 quintet ran into in the State Tournament. The Panthers first defeated an excellent Selah five to gain entrance to the meet, and the next afternoon edged out Longview, South- west Washington Southern Division champions, by a 32-30 margin. The next foe was John Rogers High School, Spokane city champions, and again the locals came through by a 32-30 margin. In the semi- final round Snohomish faced the Bellingham Red Raiders, Northwest champions, and lost to the E19-nt Shal'P'Sh00tiI1g 13-dS by a five point gap, 34-29. The Panthers were behind ten points at half-time, but closed the breach to three points with a minute and a half to gog however, they could not pick up the necessary points to tie the score. Playing for third place on the final night, the tired Snoho- mish squad bowed to the Everett Seagulls 28-21, to qualify for sixth place in the tourney. Snohomish was highly commended for its defensive ability, holding many teams under 20 points. Its ability to ward off the attacks of strong teams in the county tournament was exceptional, keeping Marysville to 13 points, Twin Cities to 'l'?, and Sultan to 12. Most fans picked Snohomish as the best defensive club in the state meet, and the locals also won high praise for their ball-handling and pass- ing ability. The Panthers' defensive play slackened very few times during the season, and two of these slips were held responsible for the defeats ky Kirkland and Bellingham. Clyde Temple, who was picked for the all-state second team, won high praise from fans and sports writers for his exceptional ball-handling and tricky passing ability. Temp was rated by many as the best dribbler to be seen on the University of Washington floor since the great Hal Lee of the U. of W. Huskies paraded on that maple court more than two decades ago. This praise was highly significant, for it included both high school and college players. Bob Carlson also received bouquets for his inspired ball against Bellingham and Everettg his pivot play in those games was highly effective. Coach Bates had seven Seniors for his basketball squad this year: Carlson, Temple, Gilbertson, Peterson, McBride, Hofstrand, and Williams will graduate this spring. Next year's team will be made up largely of Coach Larry Munizza's second stringers, who placed second in the county jun- ior tournament held in Everett, and tied for first place with Monroe for second team honors in county Class A play. They dropped second team encounters to Anacortes, Kirkland, and Monroe, and of the three games, only one was in Class A second team competition. The young Panthers played in the annual junior county tournament, and took second place, being defeated by the Everett High seconds in the championship game by a five-point margin. Coach Munizza's young team, in a very creditable performance at the meet. downed the North Junior High of Everett and the Twin Cities' first team, before bowing to the young Seagulls. Roger Williams, sophomore forward, was placed on Page Fifty-Four Se 1' .1 0 , , ' il '1 Af 0 ' v. Q ' '1. . 'y v.. - 7 . , W L. .

However, we have a Senior Seven that is surpassed by none, and we would like to escort them with a few words of recommendation as they leave our athletic circles. We will miss: Keith, for his inspirational play. His hard work, splendid attitude, and his inspiration to all were something to behold. Keith is a two-year letterman. Clyde, for his clever ball-handling and all-around play. His record of being chosen on the all-coun- ty and all-district first teams, and on the all-state second team, are indicative of his basketball ability. Clyde is a three-year letterman. Pete, for his dependable play. His constant work, pleasant personality, and his steady basketball have made him one of the best. Pete was a member of the all-county team, and is a three-year let- terman. Bob, for his pivot play and backboard work. His untiring effort, enthusiastic personality, and sound basketball will be a pleasant memory to us all. Bob was chosen for the all-county team and second all-Northwest team. He is also a two-year letterman. Ed, for his rythmic shooting, will to win, and constant work. His mechanical play has earned him the name of Mechanical Mac. Ed made the second all-county team, and is a two-year letterman. Perry, for his earnestness and his ball-handling in the pivot spot. His fine attitude, smooth passing, and general ability will be hard to replace. Perry is a two-year letterman. Don, for his superior cooperation and eagerness. His disposition, attitude, and competitive spirit will linger for a long' time. As Stan said, I have never worked with a better group of boys that 'Fat,' 'Hump,' 'Pete,' 'Bob,' 'Mac,' 'Coon,' and 'Blitz.' Their teamwork, morale, will-to-win, effort, and loyalty were unsurpassed. I only wish they could be with us longer. Page Fifty-Six ff ' Q 1 f Z. , . 9 27 4, W mi 5.5, I ' x zz mvftzll' If ' zzwwffz, K Z ' V 1 1 V 4 A 3 A X I L ' . K K I ' f 7 W - ..

The team finished second in the county league last year, winning ten games and losing five. About thirty-five boys turned out for baseball this year, and among them are ten freshman. The team played its first game against Bothell, winning 8-7. Keller pitched the first four innings to shut out Bothell with a lead of 7-0. l-Ie also led the hitting with two doubles and a single. Fifteen boys took part in our first game. Keller Pitches No-Hit, No-Run Game. -Playing Sultan in the first league game, Snohomish won 4-0. Darrell Keller pitched a grand game, not allowing Sultan a hit or a run. Perry Williams was our best hitter, getting three hits in four times at bat, also scoring one run.

Page Fifty-Eight S in F Y 'a Track Track turnouts were slowed considerably this spring by unfavorable wtather conditions and the fact that several of the boys were participating in the state basketball tournament into the middle of March. The squad, coached by San Bates and Larry Munizza, was biult around the following letter- men: Pete Peterson, in the hurdles: Jack Norvell, in the sprints and quarter mile, Denney Hubbard, in the quarter mileg Dean and Don Minor, in the half mileg Jack Minor, in the hurdles, Don Hofstrand and Bob Carlson in the riscus and javeling Keith Gilbertson, shot-put and discus, Don Dixon, mileg Wayne Jones, mile, Don Tait, sprint, John Samples, pole vaultg Glen Larson, sprintg and Robert Jinneman, distance, comprised the remainder of the squad. The season got off to an early start when the squad participated in a triangular meet at Mt. Ver- non, with Bellingham and the host school. Don Dixon and Don Hofstrand took the only firsts for Sno- homish by winning the mile and the javelin, respectively. The following week the squad travelled to Everett to tangle with Edmonds and Twin Cities in another triangular meet. Snohomish won first place in every event, with the exception of the pole vault, and ran up a score of 91 to Edmonds' 28, and Twin Cities' 7. Pete Peterson took high honors with firsts in the high jump and both hurdles, in addition to running on the winning relay team. The next meet was also held in Everett, 'with Snohomish, Monroe, and Arlington competing for honors. Snohomish men won this meet by a score of 68, to 30 points for Arlington and 26 for Mon- roe. The only event in which the locals failed to place was the broad jump. Don Hofstrand was high individual scorer with firsts in the javelin and the discus, and second in the shot-put, besides taking part in the winning relay team. Jack Norvell's time of 53.5 in the quarter mile was especally good for so early in the season. As the annual goes to press, the track squad has the following meets scheduled: Relay Carni- val at Sedro-Woolleyg County Meet, exclusive at Everett, official County Meet, also at Everett, Dis- trict Meet at Siedro-Woolley, the State Meet at Pullman. Some interesting sidelights that developed during the past season were: the difficulty opposing teams had in passing the Minor twins, and upon passing one, their discouragement in finding his car- bon copy still in front of them, Jones and Dixon having to furnish their own opposition in most of their mile runsg the comfortable margins by which Norvell was able to win his racesg Peterson's consistent first place in the hurdles tshould We add the high jump?Jg Hubbard's reliable score-rais- ing ability will long be remembered Cas 'will his quick-landing broad jumplg Carlson's endless battle with Hofstrand to determine which would win the field events, the constant threat of Gilbertson in the field eventsg Jack Minor's pinch-hitting after a sojourn in the mountains during which he in- jured a kneeg the baton handling and sprinting of Taitg the soaring of Samples: and the persistence of Larson and Jinneman.

Boys' Tennis The Panther Net Squad of 1945 is expected to be one of the most powerful teams in the North- west and is heavily favored to cop District as well as County honors. I Back from last year's potent team are Ed McBride, who went to the District finalsg Bob Carlson and Don Hofstrand, who also went to the District finals in doubles, and Keith Gilbertson, ano- ther four-year man, who captured third place in the county tournament. ' The main addition to the team this year will be Mr. Philip Cope, Olympic games track and basketball star from the University of Southern California. From his experience the Panthers should gain much valuable aid. Matches for this year, besides the regular county schedule, are expected to be played with Mt. Vernon, Bellingham, Anacortes, Kirkland, Bothell, and several other out-of-county foes. SECNOD ROW, l. to r.-Keith Gilbertson, Bob Satterlee, Don Hofstrand.

Page Sixty Speeclball Despite the Washington Weather the girls' intramural program started off with speedball. Specdball, as you know, is a combined basketball and soccer game. There were times when the mud interfered with the sport but the girls came out the winner. The contests were held between classes and we find that the super Junior-Senior team won the honors. Each season and for each sport an all-star team is chosen from all of those who turn out for the individual sport. To the Speedball hall of fame we add the names of these all-star players: CFirst Row, left to righti Edna Hubbard, Rena Andrews, Gladys Kinch, Gloria Wagner, Nylene Andrews, Mary Jane Larimer, Carolyn Barry. CSecond Row, left to righti Thelma Culver, Helen Rach, Marilyn Young, Emma Falkenstein, Pat McGladrey, Imogene Jones, Miss Rogers, adviser. Girls' Basketball I love that game. It's the most popular sport of all. Yes, it is basketball. Approximately 95 girls took part in the intramural contests. Fun and frolic were enjoyed in all classes. The first two teams were exceptionally good. Ann Dobbs was elected honorary captain for the season. Those in the picture are, left to right: Rena Andrews, Gloria Wagner, Glenna White, Imo- gene Jones, Nylene Ahdrews, Pat McGladrey, Mary Jane Larimer, Edna Hubbard, Gladys Kinch, Lois Johnson, Helen Rach, Emma Faikenstein, Thelma Culver. Girls' S Club The WS Club is the organization composed of our girls who have earned that much sought after school sweater. For some it has meant two or three years of turning out for the intramural sports, for others it has taken less time. All S club members have worked hard for their awards. The function of the club is primarily to promote the intramural program and to foster and encourage sportsmanship. A newly added responsibility is that of ushering at the county tournaments. Each year an initiation is held, and the pledges of the club pay tribute to the members by' becom- ing slaves for the day. The initiation banquet is not to be forgotten. This year the day was espec- ially memorable for Thelma Culver, Nylene Andrews, Jane Bonney, Virginia Anderson, Orva Tor- seth, Suzi Simpson, and Betty Seymour-the girls who became new S members. The pilot for this year was Sally lMcGuinness, assisted by Glenna White and Edna Hubbard. FIRST ROW, left to right--Patty Lee, Edna Hubbard, Helen Kelso, Sally McGuinness, Ruby Enger.

It is not a game for a slow player. If you want to be kept wide awake and on your toes, try badminton as did Jane Britt, Anne Sorgenfrei, Suzi Simpson, B. J.

Decrepit Grandpa Bates, now minus his once-treasured golden curls, his face lined with worry wrinkles brought on by the many tournaments of '45, is sitting at a small desk in his little home. He is attired in his red and white polka-dot l'nightie and stocking cap that his second cousin gave him last Christmas. A pan of hot water is at his convenience for soaking his tired old feet. Reach- ing across the desk, he picks up his little black book and begins writing: Dear Diary: I've been a busy man today. I decided to take a day off and go for a walk to see what was doing in the old town. While hiking, I came across many folks that graduated back in '45, As I walked down Avenue Q, I found the former Shrley Larimer outside her cottage washing Minor things. She was assisted by her maid, Wilma Lauterbach. Her work was interrupted by Keith Gilbertson who put in his appearance. He is chief salesman for Amundson's Nursery. Strong-man Merle Smith was carrying the samples. Uohnny, of course.7 Going on from there, I noticed Pete Peterson's Jet Propulsion Plane Plant was in full swing. It was busy turning out streamliners for civilian pleasure riders. Frances Merritt was in the vice president's chair and had her feet propped up on the desk in a business-like manner. Pat McGuire was working in the chem. lab. I-Ie was trying to invent new wing panels, but kept turning out a new deadly poison in- stead. Test pilot of said planes was none other than the daring Donald Deienling. He was helped into the plane by the ground mechanic, Sadie Fields. I left the plant still marvelling at the miraculous ad- vancement made in science during the last twenty years. Turning down Main Street, I entered the office of the Semi-Daily Tribune. It is now edited by Ann Dobbs who has followed in her father's footsteps. Margaret Anderson has made a career of fashion de- signing for this modern paper. All ladies wear is modeled by Sallie Johnson, Barbara Chaney, and Glenna White. Perry Williams was very ambitious as writer of the gossip column. The jokes are con- tributed by Alene Shellenberger. fShe gets all her material from Bob.J Wendall Anderson is making big news in the Want Ads. He has a car plus tires and is anxious to meet a. gal with plenty of gals stamps. I left the Tribune office in time to see Jack Minor on his way out to deliver the evening news to his faithful customers. I was attracted by the booming voice of the barker, John Samples, to a circus situated where the city hall once stood. He was trying to interest the crowd in Colleen Farrell, the side-show cutie. In the front row stood banker, Ed McBride. He went there to spend a quiet evening with Don Hofstrand, the ol' fish dealer who lives down on the docks. Rosemary Simpson was staging a dart game. Norval Nash refused to quit playing 'til he had won the Cupie Doll for his girl friend. Leaving the circus ground, Istopped at the high school to see if was going well in my absence. Hellen Kelso is the new shop teacher. Bill Buser has taken a P. G. course fifteen times so he can be near Helen. Ethel Lampman was then teaching piano lessons while .Maestro Clyde Temple looked on with approval. One of her students was Lloyd Martin. He claims he can now play Chopsticks ' with more than one finger. Catherine Stetcher and Ardis Yoder have stayed on to read the commercials in the announcements every third period. A girls' football team has been organized by Jean Olofson. The captain is brawny Phyllis Evans. They are out to win all titles this year. Jane Hubbard and Betty Froembgen have the job as Sergeant of Arms in the study hall. Peggy Taylor likes her job as office girl. She writes the stories that I tell in pep assemblies. Doris Robinson and Bob Carlson are employed as caretakers of the lawn. Doris rides around on the lawn mower and Bob is most helpful as grass dumper. Pat McGladery and Juanita Storwick work as patrol girls in front of the high school. That reminds me that Kathleen Barnhart owns the night club next to the school. Bill Crowe works part time as waiter. Ray Troupe was elbow deep in dish water, assisted by Lyle Surdyk. They said they left their wallets home. CI Wonder.J The bouncer was Bud Cr'eighton. Art CAstairel Curnutt was en- grossed in the 'Dance of the Butterflies! On the way out I noticed Julian Lampman in a uniform with many decorations on his chest. QI-Ie's the new doorman.l After being in the crowded city, I thought I'd take in the peace and quiet of the country. Lewis Goshorn was out on the farm with Kathleen. Bob Schick, Kenneth Holcomb, and Ed Stocker are his brother-farmers. They were still feuding over which can raise the best corn. Cowgirls Irene Evans and Goldimae Soderland were out rounding up the horses. 1Sti1l a man shortage from World War IIJ I stopped into the peacetime Military Headquarters on the Way back to town. I saw Howard Bond in his private office with his grandchildren. He and Dave Mundell were busy telling about their past experiences in the Navy. Bill Wall is now a major in the Marines. Yard-bird Don Dixon keeps Bill's shoes well shined. Ruth Anderson is No. 1 pin-up girl of all the armed forces. Ione Brookhart, Lily Mal- gesini, and Mary Ann Beckmeyer are doing their bit entertaining the war veterans around town. Bixby Bonney is producer of the 30th Century Wolf Studio. Elaine Lafranchi, Kathleen Iager, and Kathryn Britton have gained world-wide fame as current television stars. Walt Osborn and Frank Pallela are make-up men. C'They seem to be enjoying their job immensely.J Sound effects are produced by Warren Swartz who growls like a lion for the news feature. Hot and tired from the noon-day sun, I made my way down to the Snohomish River for a dip. Living in a houseboat there is Jeanne Stetcher and her ex-Navy man. Ilene Ridenhour has opened up Page Sixty-Four Class Prophecyf- continued a ritzy summer resort. Beverly Neumann and Sally McGuinness are employed selling foot-long hot dogs. Lucille Buckley was selling mustard as an added attraction. The middle-aged beach comber, Denuey Hubbard, can be seen along the sand bar picking up old logs to solve the fuel situation. Grandpa Bates writes on: I saw that Margaret Hinkley is now foreman of the welding department of the local Hugh Kaiser Davis ship-yard. Their product at present is leakless bathtub boats. Alyce Smith and Mildred Gemmer wield a wicked torch as welderettes. Busy picking up hot rivets were Pat Byron and Richard Caldwell. I found that Grace Johnson was about to christen the U. S. S. Munizza. Art Swoboda was up in the pilot house happily blowing the whistle to shove off. Nearby George Hobart was weeping over the loss of a good bottle of champagne. Whizzing by on a jitney driven by Dorothy Van Volkenburg were Doris Reed, Paul Nickel, and Ben Spada. Carroll Clark, Nut and Bolt Supervisor, pulled me ,aside just in time to save me from a horrible fate. Scared nearly half to death by my narrow escape, I realized that this big dangerous world was no place for an aging old man like myself. With that thought in mind, I decided to retire to my old home- stead to spend my declining years in peaceful solitude. I now know why I aged so qucikly-in the prime of my young life, tool Page Sixty-Five rr- A M :HL 1'.'u 4 ,.- 'I-,, VV 'fbi fl' ,' :LQ-'.f'. , 1. 1 ' E., I f L 191-- 'ff H!-ye! ! -WLIQE S 'FYgi,Li..!Q5S.:3-4? -.
