edticatian . . . We. the students of TaHoMa High School, dedicate our first Ki-Ah-Yu to Mr. Donald S. Smith, our Journalism teacher, who has so willingly made it possible for TaHoMa to have its first annual. I would rather still contend than rest a champion With all to gain and nothing to lose. Yes, it’s easier. I think, to be an underdog, The last one the crowd would choose. I like to be where you haven’t a chance Where the other side likes .0 boast. Where they think it isn’t an even match And the game won’t even be close. It’s a greater feeling just starting out Than to be favored at the track; Running as an unknown dark horse Who masters pride with tact. I would rather be small than big and tall If all I had was size; For the spirit is greater than all the gold To the men who are great and wise. And I say again and I swear ’tis true To the man who ever vies, The will of the soul is the real goal Where the true victory lies. —Donald F. Smith. KI-AH-YU 3

AdinituAitotion . . . “The importance of a good educational program cannot be overemphasized. A well balanced program provides opportunities for intellectual and social developments. The curriculum of TaHoMa High School certainly has provided xhis intellectual challenge. As for our extra curriculum activities, every student has a chance to excel in at least one activity.” In these words Mr. Heidenreich, in his message to the annual, shows the fine character and thought that have made him a big favorite with the high school students, teachers and members of the community. Mr. Heidenreich graduated from Whitman college with a Bachelor of Arts Degree and look additional schooling at the University of Washington. He had his first contact with TaHoMa in 1940 when he came here as coach and leacher. He stayed at TaHoMa until 1942 at which lime he transferred to Renton High School. Returning to TaHoMa in 1944 he took over the position of principal and one year later he became superintendent. Among the important things he has done was to supply a well balanced educational program and promote greater understanding between the teachers and students. He also has been very active in student activities. Mr. Gray, principal since 1945. has been one of the most energetic and conscientious men at the school. A graduate of the University of Montana, he also has taken additional courses at the University of Washington. After graduating from the University of Montana he taught at schools in Montana. He came to TaHoMa in 1944 and after one year of teaching took over the duties of principal. Besides his office duties and teaching. he has complete charge of dramatics and has been advisor to quite a few student activity clubs. Some of the clubs are: Torch. Boys Club and Board of Control. His attitude toward the school and students can best be explained by his message to the annual: “One of the essential factors necessary to building for the future is cooperation. The students of TaHoMa High School have worked faithfully toward that goal in every undertaking. We realize that through working amiably together with our student body, faculty and community that we may accomplish beneficial results. It seems to me that this factor is exemplified in thi our first school annual. Congratulations for the fine work represented herein and the splendid example set for others to follow. 4 TaHoMa, ’48
