The Royal Blue MARCUS WHITMAN CENTENNIAL EDITION Published by The Associated Students WALLA WALLA HIGHSCHOOL Walla Walla, Washington 1936 FOREWORD This book is an illustrated record of the school year 1935-36 in Wa- Hi, In it you will find pictures of your friends, your teachers, and all the activities which have made this year as memorable to you as the year 1836 was to Marcus Whitman and a little band of pioneers who a hun- dred years ago started a century of development and progress in the Walla Walla Valley. The staff hopes that this Royal Blue, the pioneer of post-depression Wa-HI annuals, will mark a new era of highschool publi¬ cations, and serve always as a memorial to Marcus Whitman and his fol- ! owers and a memento of your highschool days. WAilLATPU MISSION PAGE FOUR DEDICATION Time passes on the fleetest of feet and memory turns to the past— to Marcus Whitman, pioneer, and forefather of this, our land. The one- hundred-year period of progress marked by the Whitman Centennial celebration arouses within our hearts a feeling of reverence and gratitude to that brave pioneer spirit that foresaw in the Northwest a future of great promise. The wise and far-seeing precepts of the past challenge the present-day youth to greater and more perfect fulfillment. It is to that spirit of pioneering which inspired Marcus Whitman to explore and tame an unk nown region, to that same spirit of progress which inspired the graduating class of 1936 to make possible the publishing of this volume, that we dedicate this book. NEW GYM PAGE FIVE W. M. KERN LAST WORDS TO THE SENIORS: Our intimate and friendly relations, over a period of twelve years, prompts me to send you this brief message as you approach the close of your highschool career and face Commencement. Over a period of approximately eighteen years you have been served by others and have lived on wealth earned and accumulated by others. This fact, I hope, has not escaped your attention. The bread you ate, the clothing you wore, the house in which you lived, were made by others. You have been educated at public expense: the books you studied, the paper on which you wrote your theme, the pencil with which it was written, were provided by others. Others have worked and saved and provided in order that you might have care and leisure and opportunity. To you much has been given Of you much will be expected. This truth Jesus intended for you. Sincerely, W, M, Kern SUPERINTENDENT PAGE SIX W. A. LACEY PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE After a lapse of several years the Royal Blue is starting again. It Is considered so valuable by so many students that sacrifices are� made In order that it may again be a feature of the school ' s life. The enduring pleasure which it gives should prove the wisdom of its revival. The fri endships and associations of the highschool years that influence all later life so profoundly may well be enriched and preserved In the pictures that form the best part of any such book. Visual memories they are, that tie the first of life to the rest, and brighten all This book specially honors the Class of 1936, the largest class to graduate from the Walla Walla Highschool In many ways the class has felt the pinch of the lean years, and It Is fitting that it should be instrumental In reviving this publication. May the Royal Blue of ' 36 serve its pleasant purpose, and may the Class of ' 36 prosper in service and happiness! W. A. Lacey PRINCIPAL PAGE SEVEN ESTHER BREIHOLZ History HARRISON L.

Many students have made use of the opportunity which our school library offers them. Connect¬ ed with their memory of the book friend to be found here will always be Miss Ramseur, librarian.

Mr. Paul Reed PAGE TWELVE SENIORS The Cla ss of 1936 completes its highscFool course with the justly satisfied feel¬ ing that it has contributed its share in the development of the Wa-Hi spirit. It has been outstanding in activities. It contributed ten men to the football team and the first six men to the basketball team. It revealed its talent in the annual Senior Class Play, ' The Queen ' s Husband. It has been outstanding in scholarship. Thirty-nine of its members belong to the National Honor Society. It has been true to the spirit of democracy in highschool affairs, by working untiringly to secure full representation for the freshmen in the Legislative Assembly, so that now the freshmen legislators have one vote each instead of one for each homeroom. It has been true to the spirit of progress. As juniors the Class of ' 36 helped to restore the Wa-Hi Journal, and this year it has cooperated in restoring the Royal Blue as an annual Wa-Hi publication, CLASS OF ' 36 SCHOLARSHIP ROLL To be eligible for the Senior High Scholarship Roll, members of the class must have maintained an average of B or better for the highschool course, and to have attended Wa-Hi for two years.

THE FRESHMAN CLASS Tho freshman class has participated in many of the school activities and is look¬ ing forward to later years In Wa-Hi with the greatest of confidence and anticipa¬ tion. The Cfass of ' 39 represented Itself in many sports, Including basketball and foot- ball. The freshman homerooms took an active part In the Wa-Hi intra-mural tourna¬ ments. There was a large number of freshmen on the scholarship roll, many being prom¬ ising National Honor Society members. The freshmen did their part In making the Wa-Hilarities of 1936 a success. The Class of ' 39 wishes to express Its appreciation to the teachers that helped them successfully through their first year in Wa-Hi. FRESHMAN OFFICERS Alan Romine President Harold Piper .

Under his direction the Associated Students revived the Royal Blue, discontinued since 1928, as an Associated Student project. With the help of his coworkers he maintained a high standard of stu¬ dent assemblies, fostered the amateur programs, con¬ ducted a successful spirit week, continued the publication of the Journal, and brought to the students such high class entertainment as the White Hussars. Harry Zier, Vice-president; Paul Webb, Secretary, and Joe Colombo, Treasurer, were chosen to help the president direct student affairs, with the cooperation of the Cabinet, appointed by the president and ratified by the Legislative Assembly, The Cabinet was made up of the following commissioners: Justice, David McCar- roll; Hallways, Carl Yocum; Assemblies, Betty Glafke; Buildings and Grounds, Don Rader; Stage, Milford Kel¬ logg; Inter-School Relations, Bob Shaw; Social and Or¬ ganizations, Bee Barrie; Finance, Dorothy Williams; Pub¬ licity, Dick Hendricks. The Judicial Department, which tries cases of in¬ fringement of student rules and prescribes penalties tor misdemeanors, was headed by David McCarroll as Chief Justice, Bernadine Rogers was the other senior member of the Court; Peggy Woodward and Floyd Levin, junior members; Bob Dunn and Jeanne Crawford, sophomore members; and Virginia Crecellus, freshman runner. Progress in furthering the purpose of student gov¬ ernment to train students for the future and give them opportunities to express their opinions and develop their talents was shown in the movement to grant freshman legislators an equal vote In the legislative assembly with other class representatives, two of whom are elected to represent each homeroom. Wa-Hi ' s student body government has been a de¬ termining factor in the progress of the school this year as in past years. Each student has been given respon¬ sibilities which he must carry out himself, and each has cooperated to such an extent that our student govern¬ ment is an organization to which we may point with pride, PAGE FORTY Miller Webb Zier Colombo COURT First Ro w: Virginia Crccc ' Jus.

PAGE FORTY-TWO GIRLS ' FEDERATION The year of I935-1936 marks another successful period of Federation activity at Wa-Hi in accomplishment of the organization’s threefold purpose of fostering good fellowship, encouraging wholesome school spirit, and serving the school and the community. The beginning of each semester saw the traditional Big and Little Sister party, causing flurries of worry, excitement, and enjoyment among both old and new girls. The unforgettable feature of the first semester ' s gathering in the gym was a carnival sideshow which included a great deal of upperclass talent in impersonations of Popeye, the Sailor Man, Siamese twins, and a red flannel fan dancer. The second semester ' s party was made merry with a novel skit produced by members of the dramatic committee. The four Mother-Daughter teas sponsored by the organization did much to in¬ crease community interest in the Federation and in the school These teas, which were given in the cafeteria, were occasions for a great deal of activity among the girls of each class, their mothers, and teachers. All concerned felt that the teas had done much to bring parents, teachers, and students together in a spirit of friendliness. The monthly assemblies of the year provided much interest and entertainment Outstanding among these was a play produced by the dramatics department and given on March 23. Reports from the Tri-State Conference meeting at Moscow High- school and from a smaller district conference at Prescott proved very Interesting. The Girls ' Federation is the girls ' organization. Though every girl in school can¬ not hold office, she can fake part in the life of the Federation by offering sugges¬ tions, cooperating with the officers, and attending the Federation functions. The spirit of cooperation which determines the success of Girls ' Federation activity dur¬ ing each successive year has been very evident during this school year of 1935-36 and has bound the girls into a relationship that will not soon be forgotten by those who leave Wa-Hi at graduation.

THE STAFF AT WORK WA-HI JOURNAL Through the school year of ’35 and ' 36, the Wa-Hi Journal has, under the editorship of Robert Kenyon and the advlsorship of Laurence Jacky, endeavored to present to the students a fair resume of activities about the school. The success of this purpose can be judged only by the reception of the publication by the students as something which was not perfect, but represented the effort and time of some twenty students and members of the faculty. The first edition of the Wa-Hi Journal was «eleased Tuesday morning, September 4, 1926. The paper was of the regular full size, containing four pages. The prosperity of the student body was evidenced in the fact that the copies were on sa!c at the rate of five cents per copy, or $ t .50 per year. The paper was discontinued in June, 1932, because of the problem of financing it. The Jour nal, 1 ' however, became a campaign Issue of student presidents, and finally, in 1935, Mr. Laurence Jacky organized night classes In the subject of journalism. In February, 1935, journalism became an accredited subject in Wa-Hi. The journalism class then set about the task of writing and editing the tabloid size Journal we now have. Every member of the Associated Students who has paid his dues receives a copy of the Journal. Robert Kenyon was chosen editor for the semester ending February, 1936, and then was again selected to pilot the Journal through the remaining semester of the school year. During the last year the Wa-Hi Journal staff has kept in mind its purpose of helping the stu¬ dent body by giving the news, encouraging student opinion, and developing a constructive editorial policy. The staff realizes that the material in the publication has been far from perfect, but wishes to thank the student body for bearing with It in the trials which were encountered, and it, in turn, accepts their comments and criticisms in the spirit in which they were meant, that of helpfulness and sportsmanship.

THE ROYAL BLUE During the famous period of our history known as the covered wagon days many left their homes in order to experiment with a new life in a new land. The annual staff for this 1936 edition of the Royal Blue has some of the same pioneering spirit that those early settlers had. For the past six years Wa-HI has had no annual Styles in annuals have changed since that time, just as styles in clothing change from year to year. With no recent issues to set a precedent and no experienced workers on the staff, it has been the task of this year ' s staff to set a new precedent, make a new style, blaze a new trail, like the pioneers of old. The aim of the staff has been to publish the kind of an annual that will be such a treasure of highschool reminiscences that everyone will want the Royal Blue to again find its place in Wa-Hi ' s life and activities. Every day Betty Waldron, David McCarroll, Milford Kellogg, Burnadette McGuire, Lois Arm¬ strong, Robert McCoy, Joan Nelson, Avo Jane Wetherell, Dorothy Jean Ludwigs, and Allen Mat¬ thews have met with Miss Simet to work out the problems of planning the copy, preparing the dummy, and assembling the material for this book. Many others have contributed time and material in planning and executing the sales campaign, drawing the layout for the prints, writing the copy, proof-reading, and re-writing it.

Their benefit in developing social poise and responsibility has been recognized, so Wa ' Hi has allotted 45 minutes of school time every two weeks for their meetings. Although the general purpose of all is similar, each has a different plan and aim. The newly organized Arts and Crafts Club contributed constructive work by decorating the Home Relations rooms this year, thus providing a pleasant home atmosphere for the girls taking that course. The Aviation Club, under the guidance of Captain Erickson, has made a name and place for itself in Wa-Hi activities. Its general purpose Is to promote aviation, but it has done the definite work of assisting the Junior Chamber of Com¬ merce in their annual air show, at which time the Club conducted a contest for model airplanes. El Adrea did outstanding work to further the interest In social and educational development among its members. Gimmel Teth has tried to promote friendship, school loyalty, and cooperation among Its mem¬ bers. One of the highlights of the year was the annual spring dance, at which they were hostesses to high school pupils attending the State music meet April 24. Equltes, under the guidance of Miss McIntyre, has carried on a successful program for the boys interested in classical study; while the Girls ' Classi¬ cal Club, organized in 1933 under the direction of Miss Lindner, has sought to increase knowledge of classical subjects. It also helps to create a spirit of helpfulness and friendliness within the group, L ' Altiance Francaise has had a successful year in both its educational and social meetings. The regular meetings have been devoted to a study of the different provinces of France, comparing the native customs, dress, language, and social organization. Lorelei Verein has done a great deal to build up an interest in Germany for those who belong. Besides Its annual banquet, the club members keep scrapbooks of items of general interest concerning Germany. The Future Farmers of America, once known as the Ag Club, is a national organization, and the only hlghschool club whose membership is open to freshmen. The reason for this is that hon¬ ors in the F. F. A. are based on points which mem¬ bers start to accumulate in their Freshman year. During the last year the F, F. A, has conducted judging contests under the competent advisorship of Mr. Lybecker. This club has done much to pro¬ mote more scientific farming and to make for better fellowship among its members. The Math Club has shown its members how useful mathematics is In everyday life by having many educational meetings that centered around this interesting subject. One of the outstanding PAGE FIFTY-TWO events of the school year was the Christmas pag¬ eant sponsored by the Math Club, and written and directed by Its advisor, Miss Blynn. One of the most delightful social events of the year was the annual Barn Dance sponsored by the Senate Club. The Senators further distinguish¬ ed themselves by winning the Ludwigs trophy In the annual float contest in the Wa-Hi Day parade, and added a little more to their glory by winning the prize In the ticket-selling contest for the dis¬ trict basketball tournament. The Science Club, made up of people inter¬ ested in new developments in science, has finished a very interesting and complete year, both edu¬ cationally and socially. The Social Science Club indulges in vicarious traveling by scheduling travel-talks at its meetings. This Is an interesting and entertaining way of fur¬ thering its purpose of creating Interest in and knowledge of the economic and social problems of the world of today. The Officers Club Is an honorary dub whose purpose is to bring about a thorough knowledge of military affairs. Officers of the R, O. T. C. are eligible. The W. W. Club, an honorary dub for letter- men, js true to its purpose In helping establish good sportsmanship and fellowship among Its mem¬ bers and the student body. This year It put on three successful smokers, and has aided in regu¬ lating the conduct at games. The roster of the National Honor Society re¬ veals the names of many who have contributed generously to student life. Among these are Meade Miller, president of the Associated Students and athlete of considerable attainment; Bob Kenyon, editor of the Wa-Hi Journal and winner of the Eh-Kah-Nam trophy; Betty Waldron, editor of the Royal Blue and president of the Girls ' Federation; David McCarroll, Chief Justice of the Student Court and business manager for the Royal Blue. One of the good student assemblies of the year was conducted by the National Honor Socie¬ ty, whose purpose is to foster not only good schol¬ arship and student leadership, but also entertain¬ ment that has interest and cultural value. Members not shown in the picture are: Betty Waldron, Alice Hair, llene Smootz, Jean Bybee, Melba Simmonds, Garnetha Rufaford. Buddy Roecker, Virginia Grote, Gerald Campbell, William Miller, John Lusk, Jean Nascimento, Charlene Jack- son, Mildred Aylward, Gayle Madison, Dick Evans, Lyman Cauvel, Catherine Cates, Howard Hender¬ son, Stuart Miller, Ethel Weaver, Peggy Wood¬ ward, Norma Ball, Betty Davis, and Marilyn Maxey. Most of these students were elected to the Na¬ tional Honor Society after the picture was taken. The sixteen clubs have enrolled a large per cent of the students In Wa-Hi In their activities. It is felt that they contribute to the life of the members through creating social poise, and afford¬ ing the opportunity for cooperation not found In other phases of school life.

George Sutherland Montgomery, Margaret Garland The Queen ' s Husband, Robert Emmett Sherwood ' s adaptation of the original professional pro¬ duction. was presented in excellent fashion by members of the sen ior class on Friday evening, April 17, under the direction of Mrs. Marvin MinzeL The background of the play is a mythical and anony¬ mous kingdom, situated on an island in the North Sea, somewhere between Denmark and Scotland The entire action takes place in King Erick ' s private office in the royal palace. The story deals with the royal family of this mythical kingdom, a family composed of the dom¬ ineering yet attractive queen, her henpecked husband, and their beautiful daughter, Princess Anne. Special honors went to Gayle Madison for his excellent and humorous portrayal of King Eric VIII, to Bernadine Rogers for her realistic characterization of Queen Martha, and to Jean Bybee for her appealing and understanding portrayal of the beautiful Princess Anne. Outstanding as the princess 1 true love, Frederick Granton, was Jim Pickard, who turned in a polished performance as the lover fearful of losing Anne to Prince William , to whom she was en¬ gaged Bill Vollendorff, David McCarroll, Carl Yocum. Vernon Lawrence, George Knapp, and the numerous others of the cast turned in excellent characterizations in their respective parts. Special credit is due Joan Nelson, Milford Kellogg, and their assistants for their work In securing costumes, Alice Hair, Publicity Manager, Mr. Tack ' s stagecraft class for its handling of the stage, Baker Kennedy and John Haigh for their work on the property committee, and Miss Krueger, who had charge of the ticket sale. Helping to make the production a success was the orchestra, which provided music during the performance. The Queen ' s Husband long will stand out as a memorable presentation of the class of 1936. PAGE FIFTY-SIX The most hilarious of the highschool productions for the school year of 1935-1936 was the Wa- IH ilarlties of 1936, which was presented Friday night, March 27, under the direction of Miss Virginia idol This year’s production of the Wa-Hilarities was in the form of a typical Broadway revue and was acclaimed throughout the community as one of the most noteworthy productions of the high- school in recent years. The hit act of the evening was the hay ride, the setting for which was laid down South. The performances of Fred Owens as Sambo and Sherwood Palmer as Unde Ned deserve special men¬ tion. The girls’ trio, composed of Marian Taylor, Ruth Reiter, and Dorothy Whetsel. the members of the farmers ' dance, the hayride dance, and chorus, turned in polished performances in this act. Another highlight of the vaudeville was the beauty parlor sequence in which the hero turned the fables on his spry-stepping father with the aid of some beauty parlor operators—beautiful but dumb. Avo Jane Wetherell. Norene Slater, Don Rader, and Delbert Fiedler drew enthusiastic ap¬ plause for their respective parts. Very effective also was the Dream Train act in which twenty girls gave a realistic portrayal of a train traveling at night. A Midsummer Night ' s Dream was the greatest mirth-provoking act ever put on at Wa-Hi. The burlesque featured some of the most “graceful male dancers in school, Virgil Sfram as the Queen of Fairies showed exceptional talent as a ballet dancer. Enough cannot be said of the work Miss Virginia Idol did as general director of the entire show. Because of Miss Idol’s ability and experience, her clever ideas, and her untiring efforts, the Wa-Hi- larities of 1936 was a successful and memorable production. Numerous members of the faculty as well as of the student body helped in the presentation. Miss Mary Garner and Miss Dessie Cox assisted in the actual production, while Miss Helen Mc¬ Cormick advised the Business English 8 class, which was in charge of the advertising and salesman¬ ship, Among the students who took part in the production were Bob Kenyon, who made an excellent figure as master of ceremonies, and Constance Bryant, Alberta Garret, and Betty Jean Gottlieb, who planned and coached some of the dance routines. Miss Helen Thun and the home economics classes were responsible for the attractive costumes used in the production. Mr. Tack and the stagecraft class furnished excellent handling of the stage and stage settings. Accompanists for the occasion were Jean Bybee, Mary White, Marilyn Maxey, and Peggy Woodward. The boys and girls in the attractive Wa-Hi!arity orchestra added much to the program with their excellent playing. PAGE HETT SEVEN ' WA-HILARITIES” ORCHESTRA Firs!

MUSIC Wa-Hi s school life would not be well rounded or complete wrthout music, both instrumental and choral. As masters of medieval times realized the importance of music to the people of the world, so we, the students of Wa-Hi, realize the importance of music in our highschool curriculum. The highschool orchestra, comprised of 35 members, practiced faithfully twice a week, and was richly rewarded by the appreciation shown by all who heard it at its concerts in the highschool auditorium. Their betweemacts ' playing at the performance of ‘The Queen ' s Husband” and their part in Wa-Hilarities revealed a technique of which Wa-Hi may be justly proud. The R- Q. T. C, band under the direction of Mr, Tilley, is one of the school ' s most active organ¬ izations, Its 52 members practice three times a week. The military band is constantly in demand for crvic as well as school entertainment. Besides playing at football games and for military drill, it plays at the County Fair, and for parades and conventions, and gives summer concerts in Pioneer Park. The Pep Band, composed of 18 selected musicians from the R. O. T, C. band, plays for the basket¬ ball games, per assemblies, and occasions which demand a smaller group than the military band.

They joined together to give a Christmas concert, and were important in the production of Wa-Hilarities. At the pep assembly the day the team went to the Seattle tournament the boys ' double quartette introduced a new pep song, written by Ver¬ non Lawrence, and sung to a popular tune. The boys ' double quartette is comprised of Keith Grif¬ fiths and Howard Stillwell, 1st tenors; Jack DeMaris and John Tempany. 2nd tenors; George Knapp and Vernon Lawrence, 1st basses; and Weldon Anderson and Dean Rogers, 2nd basses. The girls ' double trio has been greatly in demand for performances in assemblies, for the P. T A., and for the spring Style Show. It is made up of Bee Barrie and Marian Taylor, 1st sopranos; Ruth Reiter and Carolyn Cromer, 2nd sopranos; and Martha Raugust and Betty Davis, altos. Thus we can see what an important part music plays in the school life of Wa-Hi, PAGE FIFTY-NINE MILITARY BAND First Row: Lapham, Drerman, Griffiths, Fleming, fuller, Stewart, Bowers, Law rence, Isitt, Moore, Hallmark, Lewis, Mace, Devin, Second Row: Mr, Tilley, director’ Camp¬ bell, Welch, Bryant.

Second Row: Madison, Gentry, Linker, Steadman, Mulkey, Ftiff, Davi$, PAGE SIXTY-TWO MILITARY The reserve Officers Training Corps at Walla Walla Highschool was officially recognized by the War Department in 1919, but it had been a voluntary unit for many years preceding this. In 1932 Captain Erickson became Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and in 1936 Sergeant Har¬ old Mizony succeeded Sergeant Joseph Eversole as assistant instructor. The Wa-Hi Cadet Corps h considered one of the outstanding units in the country, having been recognized as an honor school nine times since 1919. In 1935 it placed first among the 48 units in the Ninth Corps area. The cadet corps Is made up into a provisional regiment consisting of two bat¬ talions of two companies each. There is a regimental commander and two battalion commanders in the unit who are senior officers of the regiment. Each company has its officers and non-commissioned offi cers. All instruction is designated by the War Department. Each year in May there is held a Federal inspection, at which time an officer of the regular army is the inspector. He sends 3n his reports to the commanding officer of the Ninth Corps area, who picks ten high schools as honor units. At this inspection there is chosen the company which put on the best showing, and it receives the Kern trophy for its work. As this publication goes to press, the cadet corps is looking forward to the annual Federal inspection, and hopes again to place first in the area, Friday is the day for the weekly parade, at which time the cadets turn out in full uniform. Following the parade the cadets ' appearance and the appearance of their equipment are thor¬ oughly inspected. On days such as Armistice Day, when the city holds a parade, the cadet corps participates and makes a very impressive appearance in the parade. Every May, at the annual military tournament, the companies participate In a contest for ' com¬ petitive company close order drill, platoon close order drill, platoon extended order drill, and tent pitching. There is a trophy for the individual cadet who wins a competitive drill down in the manual of arms. All these awards are presented at a weekly parade held after the tournament. There are two other individual awards: First, Ihe outstanding cadet award presented by the Re¬ serve Officers Association to the cadet who is picked by the Federal inspector as the best cadet of the year, and, second, the outstanding officer award to the cadet who is picked by Captain Erick¬ son as the outstanding officer for the year. The last trophy is the one presented by Company F, Washington National Guard, to the com¬ pany which is considered to be the best company tor the year. All these awards are presented too late in the season for the results to be included in this story. The Wa-Hi Cadet Corps has its unit rifle team, which consists of the fifteen best shots in the corps. This team participates in the Ninth Corps area matches, and individual matches with different schools. A five-man team is entered in the Hears! National match. If the team is among the ten high in the Ninth Corps area match, it participates in the National Inter-Collegiate match. Every year each R, O, T. C. unit picks a girl from the school to act as its sponsor. The girls, uni¬ formed in white and black, turn out for all the parades, and lend an attractive appearance to the unit. PAGE SIXTY FOUK COACHING STAFF At the left is Ralph Emlgh, assistant coach, who attended Wa-Hi and Whitman College, where his brawn earned him a position at guard on the football team. He now coaches the Wa-Hi Frosh In football and basketball. Next comes P. V. Ir Polly Anderson, who also attended Whitman, where he played on the football and baseball teams. He was a varsity member of each team for four years and now, as a coach at Wa-Hi, he capably handles the B squad basketball team. Along with that he assists in the coaching of the football backfield. In the center sits head coach Harold Dlmick. Coach Dimick derived his training from Willamette University, where he starred in football and basketball. Before taking his present position here, nine years ago, he was the head coach at Mac- HI. Second from the right is Laurence Jacky, who won his laurels in football and track at Wa-Hi and at W h S. G. He now coaches the line in football and in addition coaches the track team. At the extreme right is Marvin Minzel, another W. $« C. man. who was an outstanding wrestler. He now holds the position of intra-mural coach. PAGE SIXTY-EIGHT FOOTBALL TEAM Left to right— Front Row: Harry Beniel.

PAGE SIXTY-NINE FOOTBALL With five wins, four losses, and one tie game, the 1935 Blue Devil football squad went through a good season. The coaching staff, consisting of Harold Dimick, Laurence Jacky, Paul Anderson, and Ralph Ernigh, with little seasoned material, built up a team that showed plenty of spark and was exceptionally hard to defeat, September 21 marked the first appearance of the team, when they met La Grande at the local stadium. The Blue Devils were not threatened at any time, as along in the middle of the first quarter Bill Martin plunged across for the first score. After about tour plays of the second quarter, Swede Miller galloped around end for 30 yards for the second falley. In the same frame Bill Martin again took the ball across the line. La Grande made its only score just before the end of the quarter. The Oregon team tried three forward passes with all of them being thrown to the ground by the alert Wa-Hi boys, but on the fourth, with a half minute to play, the La Grande quarterback, Inseth, sent one into the arms of a fellow player, who galloped across for their only score. In the fourth quarter a passing attack of the Blue Devils clicked, and with Grange and MacDaniels on the receiving end, they shoved over two more touchdowns. The final score was 31-7. On September 27, the team played Wenatchee, whom they defeated 14-0, The highlight of trhis game was the intercepting of a Wenatchee pass on Wa-Hi ' s 14-yard line and then running to Wenatchee ' s 6-yard line before being stopped. This run of Gentry ' s was too late to be of any as¬ sistance in that quarter. The gun ended the first period as he was tackled. Martin pushed the ball across immediately afterwards, in the second period. The second score came on a long pass from Grange to Gentry, who went over for the score. The team journeyed to Everett on the following Saturday, where they were defeated by the large coast team 25-0. The boys were playing their first game under the stars, and the Sea Gulls proved to be too much for them. McLaughlin High School of Milton came over to Walla Walla on October 1 I and lost a hard game to Wa-HE by a score of 7-6. Twice in the fourth quarter Mac-Hi pushed the ball over for a touchdown, but each time it was called back on a penalty. Wa-Hi made its score on a long pass over the goal line to Grange from Martin. On October 18, Dayton and Wa-Hi fought a 7-7 tie on the Dayton field. Dayton made Sts score on an intercepted pass and carried the ball over for a touchdown, while Bill Martin bucked over Wa-Hi ' s only counter, Pendleton handed the Blue Devils its second defeat as they trounced the team 20-6 at Pendle¬ ton October 21. In the most hard-fought game of the season, the Blue Devils won over Lewiston, Arimstice Day, on their field, by a score of 14-12. Wa-Hi made both of its scores in the first half, and while Lewis¬ ton tried vainly to overcome the Blue Devils lead, fell short by two points, as both of their extra points were blocked by the sturdy Wa-Hi linesmen. On October 15, The Dalles team completely smothered Wa-Hi with a passing attack that net¬ ted them plenty of ground. Wa-Hi made its only score in the second quarter, when Martin went across from the five-yard line. The score was 13-6 for The Dalles. In the last tussle of the season, the traditional Thanksgiving Day contest at Yakima, the Blue Devils were handed their worst defeat of the year, when the Pirates rolled up a score of 31-7. Re¬ venge must have been sweet for Yakima, still remembering the defeat here the previous year, and they played a truly great game. We look forward to avenging some of these defeats with next season s squad.

BenzeL TRACK With only three track men returning from last year ' s squad Coach Laurence Jecky had quite a task assembling a team. Some good prospects put in their appearance this spring, though, and as this article goes to press Wa-Hi hopes to capture some points at the annual track meet at Pullman, as well as at the Ritzville relays. The dual meet between Mac-Hi and Wa-Hi at the Walla Walla stadium was dropped to Mac- Hi, but some satisfactory records were made by the local boys, and they bettered their record at the quadrangular meet at Pasco the following week by placing second, competing with Yakima, Sunnyside, and Pasco. Mearle Swede Miller broke the high jump record at this meet with a leap of five feet six and a half inches. Billy Sensei, dash man, has yet to be defeated in the 220 this season. Harry Zier is making out¬ standing records on the 440 and 880, and James Pearson shows ability at the shot put and the jave¬ lin. INTRAMURAL SPORTS More interest was displayed in intra-mural sports this year than ever before, and the increased enthusiasm made it possible for Wa-Hi to defeat Yakima in the annual Play Day events by a score of l62l 2 -l2l 2 . Touch football was the center of interest in the fall season and until snow covered the ground. Then intra mural basketball was taken up, with a tournament between homerooms. All spring, before and after school, and during the noon hour, you could see boys scattered over the school grounds, playing horseshoes, softball, and volleyball. Golf and ping pong completed the list of sports. This year a new plan was introduced to boost the school spirit for non-varsity athletics. Points are given homeroom teams for superiority in all sports, and an attractive banner is awarded the homeroom which has excelled in intra-mural competition during the year. Five points are given each homeroom team entering a tournament, live more for winning a tournament, three for second place, and one for third place In the volleyball tourney one point was given for each game that was won. The felt was won by homeroom three with a total of 37 points PAGE SEVENTY-ONE All State stars of this year s basketball squad were Dale Gentry and Captain Swede Miller.

At the beginning of the season the team was an unknown quantity with only three veterans returning from last year ' s squad. Their first two games of the season were won by unimpressive scores but after these their defense tightened and their offense developed into one of the fastest breaking plays known to basketball history at Wa-Hi. Their best defensive strength was flashed when they held Pasco to 4 points while they gathered 55, and their offense clicked most smoothly against Connell when they threw 74 points through the hoop. This power was displayed all through the year, with the result that they won all of their games on the regular schedule. With this undefeated record, they entered the state tournament, where, in their second game, the inspired Valley quintet, later to become the state champs, defeated them by the slim margin of one point. After this defeat the squad went to work and set a team scoring record at the tournament of 179 points. This team with such an enviable record consisted of: Captain Mearle Miller, forward: Harry Zier, forward: Dale Gentry, center and guard: Harley Smith, guard; Paul Webb, guard; Clayton Shaw, forward: Fred Onstot, center; and Billy Weber, guard. The players who are too small or inexperienced to make the varsity, compose what Is known as the B squad. This team went sailing through a very successful season, suffering defeat at the hands of only two schools, Columbia High and Prescott. The squad, composed of Jimmy Seitz, Keith Griffiths, Charles Weaver, Donald Brumback, Robert Hirsch, and Kenneth Fichtner, in addition to having its own schedule, furnishes competition for scrimmage with the varsity. Perhaps one of the best midget teams in the state is that which was produced this year at Wa-Hi. Although all of the players are under five feet six inches, they form one of the fastest, smoothest-working clubs ever to perform on the maple court. Playing opponents who invariably were much taller than the midgets, they lost only four games throughout the season. The boys play¬ ing on this team were: Paul Yeend, Billie Zier, Marian Dimick, Harold Benzel, Clarence Coyle, and Solomon Frank. The freshman aspirants to the basketball team were divided Into two squads, known as the first and second juniors. Wayne Berry, Donald Keyes, Warren Blschoff, Jack Jackson, Ralph Estes, Billy Pemberton, and Bob Allen played for the first juniors, which was usually more than the equal to the squads produced by the smaller high schools in this vicinity. The second junior outfit claimed Bobby Kirkman, and Sam Schneidmifler as members. With these five teams representing Wa-Hi in a very excellent manner, it might well be sard that the 1935-36 basketball season has been one of the best years for basketball at Wa-Hi since the sport began at this school. PAGE SEVENTY.THREE TUMBLING PAGE SEVENTY-FOUR VOLLEY BALL ARCHERY FIELD BALL GIRLS ' PHYSICAL EDUCATION In Wa-Hi, this year marks the beginning of an enthusiastic girls ' sport program. Interest ran very high among the freshman girls in their sports and physical education. An upperciess basketball team vied with the freshman physical education class teams for honors in girls ' basketball. The aim of girls ' athletics is not inter-school competition, but rather a program in which all girls may take part For the first time in Wa-Hi, homeroom teams were organized for competition in both volley¬ ball and baseball. In all, sixteen homerooms were represented. During the school year, the following intra-mural program was offered after school hours to the Wa-Hi girls: In the tall a series of volleyball games were held with several class teams in competition, and in the spring a homeroom volleyball tournament was conducted with sixteen teems competing. Basketball was offered during the winter months, and over fifty girls participated. A great deal of interest was shown among the freshman girls. Teams were selected from physical education class- es, and their teams played in contests after school. Tumbling was added to the intra-mural schedule, and it is hoped that another year there will be sufficient interest to start a girls tumbling team Softball dubs were formed, and a number of girls participated, A singles and doubles badminton contest was held and over thirty girls took part. Over twelve girls plan to play in the tennis tournament and compete tor the girls tennis cup donated last year by the General Athletic Fund. As this article goes to press, it seems likely that there will be considerable competition, with the chief interest centering around Florence Letterer, Champion in 1934, and Hazel Shephard, newcomer from Klamath Falls. The archery class for upperclass girls is the object of considerable interest not only for the girl archers, but also for passers-by and groups of student admirers of the ancient sport.
