1945 FANFARE FOR THE SEASONS ui uusite i bp UtUf, DEVICA TtON With the hope that the day will soon come when all the weapons of war are as silent as the cannon on our campus, we dedicate this record of the year ' s activities to those who have left Wa-Hi to do their part in this, our fourth year of war. onte i Superintendant of Schools W, A, Lacey ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Back row: Marshall Alexander, Meta Pfeiffer, Dollie Com, James Stevens.

In continuing representative government, John Heath appoint¬ ed willing and capable students as commissioners to assist him in the varied school activities. The commissioners appointed were; Stanley Roseboro, Fire Chief; Everett Skubinna, Finance; Joyce Mulhair, Assemblies; Pat Finnegan, Inter-School Relations; Ed Mitchell, Halls; Don Woods, Buildings and Grounds; Ethelmae Allen, Organizations; Marie Campbell, Wa-Hive; and Ronald Duck¬ worth, Chief Justice Ronald was replaced by Bob Plucker during the second semester. Charlotte Throop, president of Girls ' Federa¬ tion, and Kenny Noble, president of Boys ' Federation, completed the student cabinet. When Kenny Noble left for the Navy, his office was taken over by Ronald Duckworth. Maryalis Anhorn, with her assistants, Ginger Evander, Warren Baslee, and Bud Pringle, comprised the yell staff which efficiently instigated school spirit in backing the teams. As vice president Gerald Brunton had charge of legislative assembly which assures the students of a representative govern¬ ment The legislators instituted a code of conduct for the cafeteria. Proctors, aiding in its enforcement, were appointed weekly by the Commissioner of Buildings and Grounds to turn in any offenders to Student Court. A point system was set up for boxing and base¬ ball letters, and provision was made for letter awards in music also. The past year has seen the Wa-Hive, a student managed club, steadily rising in popularity. This has resulted, principally, from the idea of the various school clubs ' rotating weekly in the man¬ agement of the downtown club. The presentation of a door prize, each week, to the person holding the lucky number was an in¬ novation. A demerit system was established this year in an attempt to control unexcused absences and disorderly conduct The attend¬ ance office, Student Court, and teachers had the power to give demerits for any offenses. 1st Semester Legislative Assembly 1ST SEMESTER STUDENT COURT Klicker, Mitchell, Shockley, Duckworth Woodhall, Benefiel, Harold 2nd Semester Legislative Assembly 2ND SEMESTER STUDENT COURT Mead, McMann, Stokes, Plucker, Humphrey Anderson, Bruce F I ‘ 4a1£ 1 3 i aki jjf 1st Semester Officers 2nd Semester Officers Knox, Tompkins, Folletl Graver, Griffiths, !rby, Olterson, Knox FRESHMEN In referring to a slightly altered proverb, it appears that the freshman class did not put off until next year what they could have done this year ' for they certainly revealed their talents and abilities in extra-curricular activities, A freshman sextet, made up of Rosemary Board, Norma Fry, Joan Lee Ebersole, Marion Riehl, Maysel Follett, and Janet Harmon, sang for assemblies at Wa-Hi and for special programs other than school programs. The boys ' glee consisted mostly of freshmen boys, and the class contributed a good many girls to girls ' glee. In the field of sports, this sedulous class managed to be represented. Alan Rose won a B squad letter in football, and Bud Kight won a letter in boxing. Kenny Knox, president, Maysel Follett, vice president; and Bobby Tomp¬ kins, secretary; were class officers for the first semester. At midyear, Kenny Knox was re-elected, Phil Griffiths was elected vice president, and Jim Irby, secretary. Representatives to Girls ' Council were Gay Childers and Joan Fitz¬ gerald; Chloe Hart and Marilyn Otterson were members of Girls ' Cabinet Serv¬ ing on Boys ' Cabinet were Bud Kight and Norman Craven Ted Shockley was appointed as member of the Student Court, and, during the second semester, his place was filled by Russell Mead. Three freshmen assisting on the Journal staff were Pat Maher, Richard Stanton, and Gene Ford. Yvonne Flikke contributed her abilities to the Roval Blue staff The freshmen were even represented in the senior play, J ' Janie 1 by Joan Lee Ebersole who played the part of Elsbeth, the spiteful little sister. All these extra-curricular activities didn ' t keep the freshmen from their studies; for they placed 22 on the Honor Roll the first semester and 20 the second semester. If the freshmen continue their successful efforts, they will have no difficulty in fitting themselves into more important duties in the future.

Stanley Moore President Kenny Noble Vice President Bud Pringle Boys ' Lounge Stanley Roseboro Intramurals Bob Leek BOYS ' FEDERATION In spite of the loss of all their officers at midyear, the Boys ' Federation managed to carry on a successful program. The year started with Kenny Noble as president Bud Pringle as vice president, and Jerry Walker as secre¬ tary-treasurer. Enlisting in the Navy, these boys were succeeded by Ronald Duckworth, president; Stanley Gump, vice president; and Marvin Jeglin, secretary-trea surer Intramural sports, the first of three major activities of the Boys ' Federation, were ably handled this year under the direction of Bob Leek The boys ' lounge, second on the list of federation responsibilities, is located on the first floor and contains checker games and a ping pong table which help to make it a suitable mixing place for freshmen and sophomore boys. Last but not least in importance, boys r assemblies have been supported enthusiastically—averag¬ ing one a month. Outstanding assemblies of the year have consisted of enter¬ tainment by the Air Base Band, shared with the girls; a vaudeville and a 1890 wrestling match, presented for the girls; and a talk by Dr. Pelligrini from the University of Washington The Alma Mater Mail, started last year for the servicemen and women from Wa-Hi, was carried on effectively again this year. GIRLS ' FEDERATION The girls of Wa-Hi have carried on a year of activities and responsibilities to a favorable termination. They have continued in helping new girls get acquainted, improving friendships already made, and aiding in the war effort. Leading the girls through a successful year was Charlotte Throop, a typical Wa-Hi girl who served as president of the Girls ' Federation; she was assisted by Donna Mahan as vice president, Vivian Swanson as secretary, and Jane Ward as treasurer. Various assemblies such as a style show; a talk by Miss Lindberg, a recruit¬ ing officer for the Cadet Nurse Corps; and a play, ' A Teapot on the Rocks , were presented by the girls; and a courtesy week campaign was carried on. The social affairs were started by the sophomore girls with their annual fall party. Twice during the year transfer parties were held to help new girls get acquainted. On April 4 the junior girls sponsored the traditional tea for the senior girls and their mothers; and in May, the freshmen girls wound up the social activities when they played big sister to next year s incoming freshmen girls. A point system for the earning of Girls ' Federation pins was continued, and the sending of mater mail to the servicemen was once again efficiently carried on.

Vivian Swanson Jane Ward Secretary Treasurer FOOTBALL In a season characterized by the lack of many of the lettermen who formed the core of last year ' s stronger team, the Wa-Hi Blue Devils, under the direction of Orville Hull, Wa-Hi s new coach, gamely fought its way through the nine games of the 1944 season with but one win. In the traditional opening game of the season, Mac-Hi defeated a fighting Wa-Hi eleven. The next two games found two Spokane teams visiting Wa-Hi and each leaving with a victory. The Blue Devils displayed mid-season im¬ provement when they lost by a closer margin than usual, to Baker; and followed this slight betterment with the most power shown the past season to win a victory over Dayton. Dropping into the losing ways again, Wa-Hi lost a close heartbreaker to Clarkston after leading the first half. The pigskin eleven lost the offensive in the second half, and came in on the short end of a 13-6 score. Playing on an extremely muddy field at Everett, the Blue Devils were swamped in more ways than one; this game was followed later by another loss to Lewiston. The annual Turkey Day classic with Yakima also proved to be disastrous, as the Pirates managed to overcome the Blue Devils, Outstanding on the Wa-Hi eleven was Bob Plucker, a powerhouse who scored a high majority of the touchdowns and gained much yardage. Contrary to the scores, Wa-Hi was a formidable team, with such outstanding lettermen as Bill Van Atta, Jerry Walker, Don Wood, and Duane Gilmore in the line. Prospects for the ' 45 season are bright with many sophomores and juniors gaining experience this year.

Under the able eye of Orville Hull, the Blue Devils swept six series during the season consisting of games at and away from home. These were against Dayton, St. John, Mac-Hi, Yakima, Pom¬ eroy, and Pendleton. Wa-Hi split series with Clarkston, La Grande, and Pasco and took two of these games with Lewiston, A single game was won from Pine City. In tournament play, Wa-Hi won five out of seven games. Encountering little opposition, the Blue Devils gained two victories over Connell and St, Pat ' s, thus becoming eligible for the district tournament at Colfax. There Wa-Hi again emerged victorious after defeating Pullman, Pine City, and Colfax in hotly contested games. Fate did not smile on the Blue Devils as they entered the state tournament at Seattle, however, for South Kitsap and Central Valley of Spokane prevented Wa-Hi from placing. In the twenty-nine games played by the Blue Devils, they averaged close to 43 points a game while their opponents averaged 32 points. The leading scorers for Wa-Hi the past season were Stan Roseboro and Don McMann. The remaining starters Jim Mitchell, Harold Shag Haupt and Bob Plucker, were high in the scoring column throughout the season. Duane Gilmore was first reserve and saw a lot of action all season. The scores of the games are as follows; ‘December 3, Wa-Hi 57, Dayton 26 ‘December 9, Wa-Hi 29, Pasco 31 December 15, Wa-Hi 30, St. John 29 December 16, Wa-Hi 36, La Crosse 39 ‘December 19, Wa-Hi 32, Mac-Hi 27 ‘December 22, Wa-Hi 43, Clarkston 24 ‘December 27, Wa-Hi 50, Pine City 33 December 29, Wa-Hi 43, Mac-Hi 32 January 5, Wa-Hi 55, Dayton 27 ‘January 6, Wa-Hi 37, St. John 17 January 12, Wa-Hi 40, Pendleton 31 ‘January 13, Wa-Hi 34, Pendleton 26 January 19, Wa-Hi 38, Clarkston 44 January 20, Wa-Hi 43, Lewiston 34 January 26, Wa-Hi 39, Pasco 37 ‘January 27, Wa-Hi 56, La Crosse 40 ‘February 2, Wa-Hi 44, Yakima 33 ‘February 3, Wa-Hi 42, Yakima 40 ‘Ferbuary 9, Wa-Hi 46, Lewiston 29 ‘February 10, Wa-Hi 24, Lewiston 27 ‘February 13, Wa-Hi 48, Pomeroy 35 February 16, Wa-Hi 51, Pomeroy 30 ‘Tournament, Wa-Hi 45, Connell 20 ‘Tournament, Wa-Hi 53, St. Pat ' s. 16 Tournament, Wa-Hi 50, Pullman 31 Tournament, Wa-Hi 40, Pine City 33 Tournament, Wa-Hi 42, Colfax 36 ( indicates home games.)

They started the year by electing, for their first semester officers, John Baxter as president, Henry Koepke as vice president, and Donna Woodhall as secretary-treasurer. Mike Fahey, president; Bob Heath, vice president; and Jane Cauvel, secretary-treasurer; served as second semester officers. Jeanne Ebbert was elected as representative to Girls ' Cabinet the first semester; and at midyear, her place was taken over by Sue Westing. Kay Wade and Winnie Noble were members of the Girls ' Council Bill McCaw, first semester; and Jim Kerr, second semester, were representatives to Boys ' Cabinet. Chosen to assist in the judicial branch of the student government, Ann Harold and Don Klicker were appointed as members of the Student Court during the first semester. Carol Bruce and Don McMann were appointed as justices during the second semester. Several members of the class revealed great ability in the field of dramatics. Three students performing in the all-school play were Lee Chamberlain, Craig Esary, and Tom Elliott. Bill Ward appeared in a play presented by the Dramatics Club. The sophomore class had a good showing in sports, several members having turned out for each of the different activities. Don Klicker, Mike Fahey, Ted Meinhari Royce Noland, Gene Ablott, Richard Rurres, and Frank Taylor were active in football. Those turning out for basketball were Frank Taylor and Don McMann. Larry Gilmore proved his ability as the manager of the basketball team. Ramon Bacon, Bob Bowman, and Bill Schatzel turned their efforts toward boxing. This class had the largest number of students on the semester Honor Roll, and Barbara Berney received straight A ' s. After viewing this past year ' s record of activities, we are looking forward to even greater things from the sophomore class in the future. 201 Back tow: Bowers, Kilbourn, Johnson, Knaus, Davis, Cau- ve) ( Burgess, Fehrenbacher, Ebbert, Levin, Wiley.

MUSIC The vocal department, under the direction of Miss Dorothy Griewe, greatly advanced in its work this year. Starting the musical season, the entire vocal group gave their first public performance in the form of a Christmas program, An American Christmas ' Other highlights of the season, up to the closing of school, included the Spring Concert, the Spring Festival and numbers for Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises. The two sextettes appeared be¬ fore many clubs of the city and entertained at the McCaw Hospital and U,S + CX, accompanied occasionally by the selected girls ' glee club.

Following its former policy, the Journal continued to support school activities, bond drives, salvage campaigns, dances, parties, carnivals, and any other worthwhile activities that merited the influence of the Journal in shaping student opinion. Editor Ethelmae Allen and her associate editors, Marie Campbell and Pat Finnegan, waged a successful battle against all of the usual problems of publica¬ tion and several extra difficulties caused by the tightening war restrictions; and, for the third year, they published a daily Journal of which Wa-Hi could be justly proud. The Journal gives a full and accurate account of all phases of student ac¬ tivity from front-page coverage of sports, projects, assemblies, social affairs, Elhelmae Allen Marie Campbell Pat Finnegan Everett Skubinna Editor TYPISTS Associate Editor Associate Editor Sporls Editor DISTRIBUTORS Frank, Destito, Rich, Weaver, Valentine Brooks, Evander, Jessup, Ebbert, BeneUel,Brown, Swanson. and the like, to back page advice to the lovelorn, introductions, a number of features, and column material. The Journal sponsored a save your Journal campaign, under which each student left his Journal, to be donated to the waste paper drive, at a designated spot in his homeroom. The Journal Service Award, consisting of a gold pin and certificate, was presented to Bthelmae Allen, Pat Maher, Ted Bryant, Pat Finnegan, Marie Camp¬ bell, Everett Skubinna, Warren Baslee, and Gene Ford. This award was started last year and is presented by the adviser to staff members doing outstanding work Working under the high pressure necessary to meet the dead lines of a daily paper, many student artists, typists, writers, stencil artists, reporters, editors, and machine operators were kept busy every period of the day. As usual, the Journal was put out entirely by a student staff consisting of Eihelmae Allen, Pat Finnegan, Marie Campbell, Everett Skubinna, Ginger Evander, Vivian Swanson, Janet Hamilton, Phyllis Braden, Glenadine Wolfe, Phyllis Kidwell, Paloma Bacon, Shirley Brown, Ted Bryant, Warren Baslee, Clara Rich, Joyce Brooks, Virginia Valentine, Betty Destito, James Renick, Gene Ford, Dick Stanton, and Kenneth Oliver. Mr James Stevens, Journalism teacher for the past seven years, has been the Journal adviser. His able supervision and wholehearted cooperation with the students has been the chief factor in making the Daily Journal the success it is today. This was Mr. Steven ' s last year in Wa-Hi, for next year he will be teaching in Seattle. We extend our grateful thanks to Steve and a sincere hope for sucess in his new position THE STAFF AT WORK Standing: Baslee, Skubinna, Campbell, Hamilton, Henick, Kidwell, Maher Seated: Bryant, Bacon, Finnegan, Allen, Wolfe THE PETRIFIED FOREST All-School Play Date — March 9-10, 1945 Director — Marshall Alexander Gramp Maple .........

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The National Honor Society of Wa-Hi began the year by initiating into their group the following seniors; Ethelmae Allen, Richard Campanelli, Betty Destito, Pat Finnegan, Marvin Jeglin, Phyllis Kidwell, Shirley Livengood, oan Rader, Everett Skubinna, and Jane Ward. Ranking high scholastically is the first requirement for membership; for a member must rank in the first third of the class Only fifteen per cent of a graduating class may be chosen, thus making eligibility more difficult to attain. The candidates must also possess qualifications for character, leadership, and service to the school Assemblies for tapping new members are held once in the fall and again in the spring when the first five per cent of the Junior class may be initiated. The officers elected for the first semester were Lois Humphrey as president, Elinors DeBoer as vice president, Betty Hopper as treasurer, and Charlotte Lind¬ berg as secretary. As one of its activities, the National Honor Society took their turn in the management of the Wa-Hive. Second semester officers were Phyllis Kidwell president; Jane Ward, vice president; Marvin Jeglin, secretary; and Joan Rader, treasurer. In April, both juniors and seniors were taken into the society. The students selected were Corleen Anderson, Doris Anderson, Betty Rae Anderson, Rosalyn Anderson, Shirley Anderson, Gerald Brunton, Mary Cook, Eloise Dorsey, Duane Gilmore, Dick Graham, Phyllis Lutz, Donna belle Mahan, Eugene Maier, Jim Mitchell, Dick Posey, Loleia Rimpler, Jacqueline Stockdale, and Virginia Valen¬ tine.

The staff got off to a satisfactory start, in spite of the tendency to stop and indulge in quiet afternoon snacks or, some¬ times, even parties. However, everyone cooperated wholeheartedly and most of the work was finished well before set date lines. Several staff officers were necessary because of lack of experience in ihis type of work. Co-editors, Irene Kerbs and Phyllis Kidwell, sent the book off to an auspicious start by formulating plans for general layout which they drew up in the dummy. The page layout and composition was planned by the co- editors, Phyllis Braden undertook the task of arranging for senior pictures and the tedious work of collecting senior write ups. Elinore DeBoer, who was appointed as copy editor, gave willingly of her time in compiling copy and identifications and taking care of all business with the printers. Juanita Sauer and Lorna Mahan, assisted by Shirley Kramer, Joy Lybecker, and Yvonne Flikke, worked constantly in the darkroom turning out the hundreds of pic- turns in this book. Joan Rader was chosen make-up editor with Marvin Jeglin as her assistant. Warren Baslee helped in the art department while Charlotte Lindberg handled all correspondence. Janet Hamilton, Mary Cook, Rosalyn Anderson, and Jeanne Ebbert worked on the general production ol the year¬ book. In spite of this willing group, nothing could have been accomplished without the able assistance of the staff ' s adviser, Mr. Reynolds, who, incident¬ ally, acted as chief photographer. Truly he deserves much credit for his time and advice, Sgt. Hardy Richards, stationed at the local air base and a student at Wa-Hi, assisted considerably in the line of photography. A capable sales staff was organized which was responsible for the sales being superior to those of previous years; for 680 annuals were sold. A new incentive was the staff ' s moving to another location, room 114, which, in previous years, was used as the journal office. A radio for entertain¬ ment, a door knob on the closet door, and a private exit were advantages of this new location over the old annual room. During the first part of the year, the staff was fortunate in having the aid of Burton Boylan, last year ' s editor of the Royal Blue, who was attending classes at Wa-Hi before his enlistment in the army. Producing the 1945 Royal Blue has been a pleasant task; and our one wish is that, as a record of school activities, the annual will produce, for you readers, interest and happy memories now and in the years to come.

BOXING Beginning with seven experienced boxers, six of them lettermen of last year, the boxing squad had a highly successful season. Many of the freshmen who turned out participated in a majority of the seven smokers. The Wa-Hi boxers won two smokers from Pomeroy, one from Mac-Hi, one from Dayton and tied with Dayton, and lost two to Clarkston. Wa-Hi placed second to Clarkston in the District Tournament where Dick Frank, Royce Lockhart, Gene Pope, and Roy Bell won championships. These boys earned a place in the finals at the State Tournament and gathered enough points to surpass Clarkston for the state championship. Thus the Wa-Hi boxing team won the school championship of the first state boxing tournament held by the State High School Athletic Asso¬ ciation, with Dick Frank and Roy Bell bringing home individual championships. Mr. Wheeler, who has been coaching boxing for the last three years, is largely responsible for the excellent showing the boys made this season.

(Maybe it ' s the navy.) Meanwhile, the freshmen gals are streak¬ ing across the lawn—it ' s none other than a fast game of speedball. Basketball is a favorite with all classes of girls—seniors as well as fresh¬ men; you should see the turnout we had this year if you don ' t believe it We all know that spring is really here when softball begins. Its good to get back to the game that everyone enjoys and plays. Some of the girls have even organized a tumbling team. On the other hand, volleyball, badminton, archery, and table tennis give them lots of excitement during their spare time. What fun! Some numbers, Lett hander. Having I rouble? Tumbling team. Hey, the ball went that way. Such poise. 1, 2, 3, slide. Little Hiawathians. JUNIORS The achievements of the junior class, during the past year, prove its ability to lead the student body next year. Leaders of the junior class the first semester were Duane Gilmore, presi¬ dent; Dick Ellis, vice president; Jack Dusenberry, secretary-treasurer. Second semester officers were Jean Benefiel as president, Jim Aylward as vice presi¬ dent, and Gene Maier as secretary-treasurer. Loretta Rimpler and Harriet DeBoer were on the Girls ' Council, while Katherine Kimmerly and Shirley Brown were representatives to the Girls Cabinet, Dick Graham and Jay Childers served on the Boys 1 Cabinet; Jim Mitchell and Jean Benefiel were appointed as justices on the Supreme Court for the first semester, and Chuck Stokes and Shirley Ander¬ son were justices for the second semester. The juniors presented many social events of great interest, some of them being the Junior Prom, the junior assembly, the Senior Tea, and the Wa-Hi Carnival. The juniors have been prominent in most school activities, including the all-school play, maior sports, and work on both the Royal Blue and Journal staffs. Many juniors were outstanding in musical programs; among these were Barbara Jamieson, Dorothy Dodd, Marilyn McEvoy, Phyllis Wright, Betty Rae Anderson, Joy Musgrave, and Eloise Dorsey. The juniors can not only boast of many accomplishments but also of their high rating scholastically; for they led the Honor Roll three quarters. With the aid of their class advisor. Miss Falk, members of the class took the orders for the class rings in order to avoid unnecessary delay. The order was so large that the salesman gave the class a commission of $23.70 which was deposited in the funds of the junior class. This is a responsibility never before undertaken by any junior class. The foregoing facts prove that the juniors possess the qualifications of an ambitious and successful class. 1ST SEMESTER OFFICERS Dusenberry.

WE WA-HIVE The center of after school activity, the Wa-Hive has proved very success¬ ful in providing recreation for the students of the two city high schools, Wa-Hi and St. Pat ' s. This friendship promoter consists of a “gossip room, containing a snack bar; a dance floor, with a small adjoining stage; and a game room, con¬ taining two pool tables. During the past year, the club was kept open on week days from 4:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m., and on Saturdays from 4:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. Marie Campbell, commissioner of the Wa-Hive, and John Herring, city ad¬ viser, managed to keep the club well organized. The responsibility of direct¬ ing and controling this gathering place was turned over to the various school clubs who rotated in the managing of it, each spending a week at a time work¬ ing behind the counter and caring for it in general. This method not only af¬ forded beneficial experience for students in shouldering responsibilities, but it also stimulated student interest. You‘re right, it ' s a chimney. Bringing up the rear.

Surprise attack. ontesi S ' pAina BASEBALL Wa-Hi went into the 1945 baseball season with eight lettermen, including John Heath, Dick Frank, Stan Roseboro, Gene Pope, Jim Mitchell Ed Fiedler, Norman Bannister, and John Fonts. Orville Halt, who came to Wa-Hi last fall as head coach of football basketball and baseball took over the reins as the fourth mentor in as many years Coach Hull after getting a fine start shaping up a good football squad with the limited material he had, and piloting a green basketball team to the state tournament in Seattle for the first ime since 1941, headed into the baseball season with the zeal that produces winning ball clubs. The year ' s schedule included games with the traditional opponents, Lewis¬ ton, Clarkston, Dayton, and Yakima, as well as carrying out a new plan of hav¬ ing a series with a Spokane team, this year s choice being North Central. Rich¬ land took the place on the schedule that was formerly given to Prescott, which entry was taken on by the Imps. A four team post season tournament. May 25 and 26, was arranged for the first time this year, and it is hoped that this will become an annual event in the years to come. The tournament grew out of a plan of Dean Lobaugh ' s, Wa-Hi principal which was brought into being with the help of Walla Walla ' s Booster Club Besides the lettermen already mentioned, the baseball squad included Ronald Duckworth, Gene Frank, Don Klicker, and Bob LeRoux in the outfield, all up from last year ' s Imp squad, as well as Royce Lockhart and George Fulgham, who worked as catcher and pitcher respectively Ronald Duckworth and Dick Frank, both 18, were subject to call by the navy and army throughout the season.

Walla Walla chapter of the Future Farmers of America had a membership of fifty-five boys, all actively engaged in agriculture. As freshmen, these boys follow a course in animal husbandry. Their second year is spent pursuing a course on crops and soils. When they are juniors, they reap the reward they have labored two years in class room for, and take their first year in farm shop. Their shop course is wound up during their fourth year in ag. Chester Lybecker, adviser and instructor for this group of boys, guides them along the path to better living and more profits. The Future Farmers group represents Wa-Hi at almost every stock show, either by entering livestock, or by forming judging teams. The principal show is held in Spokane annually about the first of May. Wa-Hi boys always man¬ age to walk off with high honors at this show. Last year, Earl Smith was very successful, having won grand champion pen of steers, pen of lambs, and single lamb; and champion pen of stears, and pen of lambs. The highlight of social affairs is the annual barn dance given in the fall of the year. Decked in levis, fancy shirts, and gingham dresses, the couples dance amid decorations giving a Western effect The F.F.A., as a group, and as individuals, were engaged this year in farming 43 acres of grass for seed. They owned and operated their own ma¬ chinery, much of which was devised in farm shop.

The performances, which were furnished through the efforts of the assembly committee and various groups of students, were well received by an appreciative student body. The assemblies of the past year, including outside talent as well as student talent, have varied from the serious to the comic. They have consisted of magicians, speakers, musical numbers, bond drives, salvage campaigns, dra¬ matic sketches, and comedy skits. Commissioner of Assemblies, Joyce Mul- hair, faculty adviser, Miss Pfeiffer, and a great number of students are to be commended for the fine job they have done.

YELL STAFF Maryalis Anhorn was appointed as yell queen after Jerry Walker, the former crmar leader, entered service in the fall The rest of the staff was com- posed of Ginger Evander, Warren Baslee, and Bud Pringle; however during the last part of the school year, the staff was reduced to two—Maryalis and Ginger During the football season, this group of four sponsored a pep rally, including the trachhonal serpentine which was led through the main streets of Walla u , A , pr j? e was given fo e clu k which entered the best looking float. As he basketball season rolled around, the yell staff canvassed the business sec- lion of the city for advertisements for the season ' s programs. Getting away from some of the old conventional ways and ideas, the yell start created a few new yells of their own. Numerous pep assemblies were given throughout the year in an effort to give the various teams a good send-off before their game.

Their ravels represent noticeable time and effort spent in active participation in school activities, in promotion of friendly relations among fellow students, and in the gaining of experience for themselves. Chosen to lead them for the first semester were John Mclnturff, president; hi more DeBoer, vice president; and Betty Hopper, secretary-treasurer. For the second semester, Joan Rader, Jane Ward, and Vivian Swanson filled these otiices, Representatives to Girls Council were Doris Anderson and Paloma bacon; Doris Eldridge and Loleta Rimpler served on Girls ' Cabinet, Stanley Gump and Ronald Duckworth served on Boys ' Cabinet. Irene Krebs, val¬ edictorian, and Clayton Michaelis, salutaforian, led the class scholastically. Miss Marguerite Moseley served as class advisor. The seniors saw many of their classmates leave for the service during the course of the year, this being one reason for having Senior Day early in the year before many had left. In April a Senior Conference, consisting of voca¬ tional speeches, talks by representatives from Washington colleges, and a luncheon at the Grand Hotel, was shared with seniors from neighboring schools Graduation exercises were set for May 31 with Baccalaureate the preceding Sunday, Ethelmae Allen Ccrleen Anderson Doris Anderson Maryalis Anhorn Wanda Jean Apple James Appling Com.
