'Twas in the memorable year of 1938 that 67 gallant youths, with heads jauntily thrown back and knees not quite so jauntily shaking, entered V. H. S. to go down in its halls of fame as the most remarkable class in its history. Not realizing the historical possibilities of this newly arrived class, the sophomores dubbed them rooks , just as preceding freshmen for generations had been called. Not content with merely giving them this degrading title, the sophomores planned an initiation that would test their staying power. This trial passed and now full-fledged freshmen, they looked back on this initiation and decided that some other class would have to suffer as they had. With Fred Thompson as president and Miss Miller as adviser, the class proved its outstanding ability by leading the honor roll, winning the softball tournament, and having a very successful concession at the carnival. Sixty-seven eager sophomores returned the next fall to begin another successful year. Midd Crawford was elected president and Mr. MacDonald, class adviser. Because of their treatment the year before, these new sophomores felt it was their painful duty to impress upon the minds of the incoming rooks the hardships of becoming full-fledged freshmen. To the chagrin of all the other classes, the class of '42 again led the honor roll and won the soft-ball tournament. Football, basketball, and track also had many of this up-and-coming class as its members. Juniors—at last they had attained the rank of upperclassmen for Y hich they had worked so diligently for two long years. Under the leadership of Virgie Killian as president and Mr. MacDonald, again adviser, the class moved into another triumphant year. One successful venture followed another. As in the preceding years, the class of '42 was outstanding in athletics. For its fine work in helping win the county football championship, nine of its most cherished members were aYvarded let-ers. The annual class play, Seven Sisters , a hilarious three-act comedy with a Hungarian flavor, was a tremendous success. The junior prom followed. To portray the theme, The Wise Old Owl , accurately, the gym was converted into a virtual forest. Even the punch bowl was a hollow tree. The name of the orchestra was kept a secret until the night of the prom itself. It was then learned that it was Eddie Burke's orchestra. Out of the 67 struggling freshmen v ho entered Vernonia High School in 1938, but 42 noble youths returned to bring to a finish the dramatic chapter in the history of V.H.S. With an eye to the responsibilities of the coming year, the class elected Jack Olin as president. Probably the most important event of the year was the play, Double Door . This was the first time in many years that a mystery theme had been used in a senior play. Class meetings were held behind closed and barred doors to make important decisions on various events throughout the year. One was concerned with the annual senior skip day . With their thoughts turned to national defense, they decided to save money, tires, and various other incidentals, by staying close to home. Despite the lack of the usual ocean air enjoyed on skip day, the class had a marvelous time picnicking at Arcadia Park. For the first time in the history of this school, caps and gowns were selected by the graduating class. Cnee again this different class showed its originality in breaking away from a custom as old in this school as graduation itself. The class first wore these caps and gowns at the baccalaureate services which were conducted by the Rev. Scheuer-man on Sunday, May 10. The theme, The higher we rise, the broader the view, was vividly portrayed by scenery at class day. Opal Scheuerman was given the honor of valedictorian and Winifred Romtvedt was salutatorian. Such things as the class song, will, prophecy, and history burst forth on this memorable day. And the traditional senior key, which had been well hidden, was victoriously presented to the juniors. For the last private gathering of the class of 1942 and faculty friends, a banquet was given in which music and informal speeches composed the major part of the program. At last the night of graduation, May 15, came. Victor P. Morris, Dean of the School of Business Administration at the University of Oregon, was the speaker. As the graduates received their diplomas, they realized that an additional landmark had been passed. With a backward glance that might be termed one of regret, they looked toward the future with the words of Dean Morris ringing in their ears. D o ubl e Doo r f March 13 was a momentous occasion for the senior class, for on the evening of that day, they presented the three-act play Double Door . 0 This play was an unusual story centered around Victoria Van Brett, a cruel and selfish woman of great wealth. Her cruelty and dominance came 0 to an end at the close of the play when she lost her mind. The cast under the direction of Miss Willers was as Victoria Van Brett . . Dorothee Millis Tellson.

She was very frightened at the boisterous upperclassmen, especially when the; told her she had to wear a long dress and crawl up the incline and many other things in order to be initiated into high school. After initiation, her life was quite normal and peaceful again. She came back to school the next fall to have a rollicking good time initiating the incoming freshmen— she even helped plan a very successful party for them. Lady Luck was with her this year for she got first prize for having the most profitable concession at the carnival— milk bottles . The girl, who is no longer little or timid, was very disappointed to find in the elections of her junior year that she wasn't as popular as Calvin Sasse, who was voted class president, Keith Walker, vice-president, Betty Olson, secretary, Fred Lusby, treasurer, or even Lee Lindsley, the sergeant-at-arms. But she helped present What a Life , the class play, which was a great attraction. On April 25, she was escorted to the prom in honor of the seniors, to see the gym transformed into a pretty country garden with the usual wishing well. Most of the events of her school life were not outstanding but she participated in all the school activities and lived a normal high school life. Although this clever junior girl is looking forward to all the exciting times a senior has, she still thinks her class has done very well to date and will continue SAP LINGS Front row.

The play, which concerned the famous Henry Aldrich, portrayed the life of a typical school boy. Henry, like all boys, managed to skin through many difficulties. Members of the class participating in this production were: Henry Aldrich...............................................Robert Kent Barbara Pearson, Henry’s heart beat...................Mary Anne Furnish Miss Shea, a most efficient school secretary...............Mary Lee Hall Mr. Bradley, the principal.................‘.............Harvey Johnson Mrs. Vecchitto, a troublesome Italian lady..............Rosaile Driscoll Mr. Nelson, Miss Shea's suitor.............................Calvin Sasse Mr. Patterson, a mincing busybody...................................Lynn grady Miss Pike, a forever-freezing instructor................Priscilla Whi + p Bill, a regular school boy. ?.........................!

On the whole however. Miss Willers presented a very successful production. WJtaJr cu mouvuj 3,3 ■ from UNDERBRUSH to SEEDLINGS school activities were resumed in September, were seven fewer members in the class of '44—fifty-four as compared with sixty-one in their freshman year. Soon after the beginning of school, it was decided to elect officers for the year. Lewis Lane replaced Larry Brady, who had been president the preceding year. Lyle Galloway retained the office of vice-president. Lorraine Mahar was elected to fill the secretarial office which was vacated by Irene Driscoll. Larry Brady took over Max Ensworth's place as treasurer. Mary Hall became sergeant-at-arms, a new office for the class. The sophomores strove for originality in their initiation of the new class of rooks, however they patterned closely after the treatment they,themselves, had received. Instead of long, faded dresses, it was decided that the girls should wear boys' pants and pigtails. The boys wore dresses as before and were a-dorned with green ribbons and smeared with lipstick. The conclusion of initiation was the performance by the various freshmen, demonstrating their talents before the assembled student body. The year before, the freshmen entertained at a similar program during the half of a football game. The class as a whole did not make the honor roll as consistantly as they had the year before. This was partially due to the fact that studies were harder, but was probably mostly the fault of the s tudents in not applying themselves. With the goal of becoming juniors, the sophomores closed their books for a long summer of rest on May 15, 1942.

Some of the independent activities this year have been the annual Christmas program, the one-act plays, and the May Day program. A new and profitable event of the year was the Student Body plays given on November 28. These plays, directed by Miss Willers, gave underclassmen and inexperienced actors a chance. The dramatics club took over the production side, and three of them served as sub-directors. Phyllis Bonsilaw, Beverly Bassett, Robert Kent, Mary Beth Lish and Dorothy Sasse took the parts in Little Darling . Jonnibel Hatfield, Max Millis, Glen Justice, Bessie Lusby, Benny Hall, and Marjorie Lolley played in Red Lamp . Dean Lionberger, Delilah Condit, Helen Fowler, Lewis Lane and Douglas Culbertson played in Who gets the Car Tonight? GIM.5 1fflGU[ Suit the Action to the Word was the theme of the Girls' League's Northwest Regional Conference which was held in Vernonia for the first time. The majority of the girls in the school—all members—contributed something toward making this affair successful, as did their adviser, Miss Willers. This meeting was held on Saturday, November 8, and was attended by girls from Westport, Clatskanie, Knappa-Svensen, Scappoose, Rainier, Seaside, Warrenton, and St. Helens. The day was spent in group discussions, a noon luncheon during which a program was given, listening to speakers, and was closed with a tea. However, this was not the girls' first effort of the year.The annual Sadie Hawkins dance was given on November 1. The gym was camouflaged as a barn and the girls—the aggressors, and the boys were hidden behind hill-billy attire. After the first semester ended, new officers were installed. Virgie Killian replaced Margaret Hainan as president; Mary Lee Hall, Mary Anne Furnish as vice-president; Dorothee Millis, Molly Butler as secretary; Phyllis Bonsilaw, Betty Olson as treasurer; Gpal Scheuerman and Tommy Lou Holcomb, Erma Koberstein and Mary Lee Hall as song leaders; Rosaile Driscoll, Beverly Bassett as sergeant-at-arms. V. H. S.'s first Valentine dance was sponsored by the league. The gym was artistically decorated and Jimmie Forsythe's orchestra from Hillsboro furnished the music. Kathleen Lolley was chosen the Valentine Girl. On May 15, a tea gave the girls their first opportunity to formally entertain their mothers. Y ith the success of these events, the girls had reason to think their efforts had not been in vain. s From the first day of school to class day, the Timberline, Vernonia High's mimeographed newspaper appeared regularly every other Thursday. The eighteen issues, usually ten-paged, included a first day issue,April Fool's number, and a senior edition. It’s staff of sixteen members, and seven to ten typists,remained the same throughout the year. They are pictured on the opposite page. In the first rovr are: Virginia Redner; Betty Glenn; Tommie Lou Holcomb; l Phyllis Bonsilaw; Miss Beck, adviser; Winifred Romtvedt, editor; Gpal Scheuerman, business manager; Joy Willard, production manager and advertising; Betty Olson; Kathleen Lolley. Standing behind them are: Dean Lionberger,cartoonist; Gwendolyn Graves, Mary Lee Hall, Margaret Haiman, Vernetta Boe, Margaret Anderson, and Erma Koberstein, typists; Carolyn Romtvedt; Roberta Sword, advertising; Calvin Sasse, cartoonist. In the back row is Bill Shepard, sports writer. Martha Tapp, advertising, and typists Mary Anne Furnish and Florieda Graves are not included in this picture. Although much work is done after school hours, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday activity periods are used for Timberline. No class credit is given for writing on this publication. Reporters learn by experience since there is no journalism class. Subscription rates this year were ninety cents for all the issues. New initiates into Quill and Scroll, the International Honorary Society for High School Journalists, numbered three this year. These, along with the three present staff members initiated last year, brought the total up to eighteen who have joined this society since 1938 when the charter members were initiated. This year, in February, the old members, Winifred Romtvedt, Opal Scheuerman, and Martha Tapp, helped initiate the new ones, Joy Willard, Virginia Redner, and Bill Shepard. A j function of Quill and Scroll is judging and offering criticisms of mem- I ber's papers. For the third consecutive year the Timberline has won A International First Place Award. r Not first, but second, was the position of the Timberline in relation to other mimeographed papers as determined at the Seventeenth Annu-i al Conference of the Oregon High School Press Association. Delegates A to this Eugene conference this year were Winifred Romtvedt, Opal Scheuer- ir 0 man, Joy Willard, Virginia Redner, and Mias Beck, adviser. Last summer, Winifred Romtvedt was sent to the Nine-day Summer School for Writers in Portland, where she got many pointers for her work as editor of this year's Timberline. The beginning of the second semester found the Timberline staff starting work on the yearbook. The Memolog, with Opal Scheuerman as editor, Virginia Redner as assistant editor, Martha Tapp as business manager, and Joy Willard as production manager with ad-soliciting on the side. The rest of the Timberline staff helped to get the book ready for distribution early in May. CLd iz-tAZ O TTlcvnaAjMT' CUsv Ma ™ pin p' pi r r pi ii n b't! Lb blit LI Lufl With tvrenty-five girls as members and Mrs. Hearing as director, 1941-1942 has been a very successful year for the Glee Club. They provided vocal entertainment for the Christmas program, public meetings at the grade school, competed in the Northwest district music contest at Hillsboro, sang for May Day, baccalaureate, and the Sunday afternoon concert. In addition to participating in these events, they remodeled the vestments which were shortened and the red ties changed to black collars. StXTflTf . . h The sextette this year performed at many social functions: the Eastern Star, Rebeccas, Rainbow Girls, the Silver Tea, the Girls' league Mother and Daughter Tea, May Day and at graduation. This year was also the first time this group entered the music festival at Hillsboro where they wore similar dresses of navy blue and white. At the beginning of the year, Erma Koberstein sang soprano but was replaced by Mary Beth Lish, a freshman, when she moved to Portland. The other members of the group are Opal Scheuerman, Virginia Redner, Joy Willard, Mary Lee Hall, and Evelyn Hearing. PEP CLUB Fifteen white-rfneater clad girls helped to give the boys a boost in their games this year. These girls were the Pep Club girls. The girls took on activities other than helping yell at the games. During the year they made and sold candy and shakers at school, ihey also sold pop and candy at the home basketball and football games. The officers of the club were: Kathleen Lolley, president; Eleanor Seifert, vice-president; Lillian Laird, secretary; Norma Larsen, treasurer; Opal Scheuerman, activity chairman. Other members were Margaret Haiman, Patricia Tisdale, Lottie Reich, and Maxine Brown, the two latter moving away before the end of the school year. The dramatics club, the Blue Masquers, helped a great deal in keep- ing up the spirits of the school by presenting skits during the year. They presented football and basketball skits during their respective seasons. They also gave a skit at the Girls League conference and later gave one for the Women's Relief Corp at the grade school. Several members of the club helped direct the s tudent body one-act plays. The club also attended one of the Blue Room productions in Portland. The officers for the first semester were Margaret Haiman, president; Molly Butler, reporter; and Dorothy Millis, secretary-treasurer. For the second semester, Vernetta Boe was president; Betty Turner, reporter; and Etha Morris, secretary-treasurer. P ! p' f-s ? - r pp p P n ’ u N LbJ J bb i b M Stimulation of interest in girls' athletics and satisfying the demand for more activity on the part of the a thletic minded were the objectives in the minds of the group of thirty-five girls who, with the aid of their adviser, Mrs. Monson, organized the Girls' Athletic Association last September. Meetings were held on Tuesdays and Thursdays of every week. Particular interest was shown in badminton. New courts were marked on the gym floor and enthusiasm for the game grew continually. At the end of the school year, letter awards were made to the girls who had earned fifty points (a maximum of ten points is awarded for each major activity). iO two outstanding senior G.A.A. members were awarded honorary G. A. A. pins for excellence in athletics, good sportsmanship and scholarship. The officers of the organization were: Virgie Killian, president Wilma Hansen, secretary Lois Harman, treasurer Every Monday and Wednesday, the Boys' Outdoor Club met under the supervision of Mr. Mills. The chief interest of the members was the construction of model airplanes,varying from private flying planes to army planes. The eleven members, Ralph Bergerson, James Moeller, Marvin Turner, Dale Roland, Glen Shipman, Ralph bturdevant, Norman Riggins, Jimmie Snider, Gerald Riley, Lee Lindsley and Mitchell DeHart, were well-satisfied with what they accomplished this year. atMefo; irrk 2u £ y ZU' 3a£cuUCot- 'ZiAAi'-aU, _____________________________________________ gfae cJu fODIfiflU ELFsSSf -Sir Sirloin. ™Z6™Z?ein m? i' “rmieri.dbr™! n't 8Swt cnrS XiwS .gaw the ers •-c“:L fe a spectacular°fpat liSt °f victims’ the Loggers performed records show th °ve Power the St. Helens Lions.

Their abounding spirit and initiative helped them to capture third place in the conference standings. In the non-conference encounters before opening league play, the Logger quintet lost to the Pacific University frosh, defeated Banks and the local I. W. A. teams twice. Opening league play at Scappoose in the county jamboree, the Loggers won the initial opener by beating Scappoose. Seaside remained an easy target and fell victim to the Loggers in a non-conference tilt. St. Helens held a jinx over the Loggers by winning two league games and two tournament games from the Loggers. Parkrose was easily subdued by the Loggers, but they turned out to be the dark horse of the tournament. In the tournament, the Loggers won a trophy by clinching third place. Robert Roeser, Logger center, was given a place on the district’s All-Star team. He accounted for the individual scoring honors during the tournament. Basketball, like football, will receive a gaping wound from graduation. Fred Lusby will be the only returning let-terman from the first string squad. With two years of experience behind him, Fred will be the figure around whom Coach McCoy will build next year’s team.

This large squad assured a well-balanced team with capable performers in every event. The Loggers won three meets, qualified for another, and proved successful contenders in other meets. Inaugurating the season at Hill Military, the Logger thinclads entered two races in which they finished second in one and third in the other. Defending the trophy which they won at Eugene last year,the Loggers with a total of twelve points, won the Hayward relays and still possess the cup. They won a first in a sprint relay, 440 relay, and a fourth in high jumping. In a meet held at Beaverton against Class B and C schools, the tracksters won two third places. Due to the competition, the Loggers entered only in minor events. In a dual meet held at Rainier, the Vernonia cindermen outclassed the Columbians and won the meet by a score of 50-48. Sunnell won individual honors while Roeser made the best mark by throwing the discus 132 feet. Vinning the county meet at Scappoose brought the Loggers another splendid trophy. The Loggers, with a score of 59 5 6 points, was led by Sunnell who registered 21 1 4 points. Ey winning the county championship in football and track, the Loggers established records unsurpassed by the other teams. In the district meet at Beaverton, the Loggers qualified with this being the end of their track wars for another year. Graduation will take many tracksters but Coach McCoy still has many promising prospects for next year. nn SOfML ooftball teams comprising the members and teams of each class, were drawn up to afford noon-hour games. A schedule of games was arranged ■with the aid of Mr. McEntire who also drew up the necessary ground rules Due to the extreme distance of the football field, the games were played on the school grounds with Mr. McCrae and Mr. McCoy acting as umpires. As the weather prohibited the teams from finishing the arranged schedule, the first half schedule of games was the only one completed. The seniors won with a perfect record. These same people won the noon-0 hour Pennant in their freshman and junior years. An all-star game was played with Rainier with members from each team participating. 0 Ui J With the aid of the local boxing instructor, Paul Gordon a large number of boys participated in boxing.
