Administration 9 enthusiasm boosts school spirit if is ROBERT W- HUNTER HELEN L. SOHLBERG Counselor Counselor ' BOYS' Club Adviser Girls' Club Adviser OFFICE DEPARTMENT . . .To Stadium Students, the main office and its branches, the guidance, attendance, and college counseling offices, hold a place of authority and respect. From these the administrative duties are aptly handled by efficient personnel. If it weren't for Mrs. Tollef- son, our club fund recorder, most activities would have been in a hazardous mix-up these past three years. Mrs. Wetmore, indeed, was invaluable, too, as she was Mr. Hayes' right hand woman and handled reams of neces- sary business. Personal and test records were kept up to date in the guidance office by Miss Sohlberg, Mr. Hunter, and their capable secretary, Mrs. Keizer. All were encour- aged to discuss any problem whatsoever with the counse- lors. Every student probably sought information about their college and post high school plans from Miss Forbes and profited from her wise and experienced assistance. Also, in room 102, a faithful friend of the student, Mrs. Peterson, was kept busy recording attendance information. The school nurse, Mrs. Kizer, performs one of her routine tasks of administering to the sick. EVELYN G. FORBES MARGARET PETERSON College Counselor Attendance Clerk Secertary to the guidance voffice, Mrs. Keizer, and the two office clerks, Mrs. Tollefson and Mrs. Wetmore, keep the office running efficiently. Mrs. Olquist, Stadium's librarian, carefully files books so that they will be easily accessible to students and teachers.

8 Administration Mr. Hayes, our hard-working principal, takes time out from his busy schedule to engage in a friendly conversation. lVlr. lVlazzei joins staff at Qld Brown Castle Congratulations to the class of 1963 and to the Tahoma staff for the beauty of this yearbook and all the significance it holds for each of you. At Stadium, opportunity and challenge have been pro- vided for all of you, each according to your own interests and abilities, to develop toward your maximum potential both academically and socially. With graduation comes greater opportunity, challenge, and decision. We hope that you will continue to make every moment count, reach for all that is worthwhile, and cling to the basic fundamentals of fair play and concern for the rights of others. What you achieve you will have earned, and what you become will be the sum of the choices you are making now and in the future. lt has been a truly stimulating experience to be as- sociated with all of you this year at Stadium. No one on earth could resist the contagious enthusiasm you display in all activities. You have all contributed in one way or another toward making a new face feel welcome and a part of the Old Brown Castle. 5 Sf. Wage! lVlr. Hayes' Congratulations to the Tahoma staff and the senior class for the successful completion of this fine yearbook. This year's record of achievements make interesting reading and will return pleasant memories for years to come. lt will remain a treasure to us. Graduation brings to each senior new op- portunities and responsibilities, as important decisions are made for the future. Each of you will now have the chance to turn your hands to greater tasks. lt happens that you are to live in a period when the course of human affairs is especially confused by powerful cross currents in politi- cal, economic, and social thinking. Tremen- dous forces are obvious. Mainly, it is a struggle of ideas and ideals, but the underlying issue is clear: freedom or submission to totalitarian forces. The affairs of the shrinking world have now entered into the fabric of every day living for each of us. You must all be prepared to evaluate problems and solutions as they arise. This past year has been a tremendous per- sonal satisfaction to us. Your youth, energy, enthusiasm, intelligence, and generosity have been stimulating. You have helped to make good progress for our beloved school. Sincere best wishes to each of you.

TEACHERS . . . Knowledge is one of man's greatest treasures. Until it can be presented and interpreted, however, it remains hidden in obscurity. It is therefore the task of our teachers to utilize their skill so that this knowledge may be assimilated by their students. Accordingly then, capable teachers in each of the various departments' at Stadium attempt to make their courses enlightening and challenging. The English department program, placing emphasis on better preparing students of varied ability, included not only regular, but high achievement, ad- vanced placement, and debate classes. Similar to the English, the mathe- matics, science, and foreign language departments offer students an inter- esting variety of courses ranging from business math' to college freshman algebra, from biology to physics, and from Latin to Russian. Keeping pace with the rest, the history department added another high achievement class, American economy, to its various if VELLA BOYLES Home Economics Service Department ANN E BROCKMAN Foreign Language Department Head Adviser Senior Class Adviser TERRANCE R.
