WARKRIOK HELLO my name is Don NVSAc Ge eves Ge Coe (2003) Seal Hello my name is TDon Nie Faye ) 3} te (2009) Don NFAL (2011) ; 52 EX LIBRIS WARRENTON HIGH SCHOOL FOREWORD Each year the Annual Staff of Warrenton High School puts out what it believes to be the best annual of all. Although we were handicapped in many of our activities, we feel that the spirit of Warrenton High School has remained undaunted. It is our belief that students, faculty, and our alumni have shown great loyalty and courage. We hope that in future years, as we look back, this annual will still be a reminder of the true Warrenton High School spirit.

It is our hope that the thoughts presented herewith will be pre- served, both in memory and print, commemorating, in part at least, our happy association of the 51-52 school year. We are living today in a world that is changing so rapidly that we find it very difficult to keep abreast of current advancements. It is our sincere hope that during the year each of us will have developed to a higher degree the basic skills of the learning processes that will enable us to better interpret and place ourselves in this world that surrounds us. Nothing in this world remains truly motionless. We either move backward or we move forward. We need to constantly plug along to keep our place under the sun. I hope that our association together in the past year has in some measure accomplished this purpsoe. SCHOOL BOARD The School Board has contributed much to the success of this school year. The students wish to express appreciation and thanks for their cooperation. MRS, BUTLER Ike Kempt , SCHOOL CUSTODIAN MR, KNOTTS MRS, CARRINGTON Office Staff As a part of their commercial training, six students work in the office for one period a day. They assume general office duties. The students were instructed by Mrs. Carrington, the private secretary to Mr. Knotts. This proved to be a valuable asset in their commercial training.

SP Cae Under the supervision of Mr. Knotts, the student coun- cil took eiihe of business before presenting it to the student body, handled trivial business, and checked payment of large student body bills. The council wrote a set of rules and decided some things that aroused the students interest toward this group. The interest was stimulated by several discussions of student government. Our council attended an invitational meeting of the Astoria High School student council to find how other councils are run. Dick Ford, Viola Gramson, Sharon Carrington, Tom Head, and Luella Dunn represented our council at a district student council meeting at Hood River. 2 - ) ri é . ’ i ‘ t i P a °° ‘ 5 ° ia r i } f | = 1 !

Of the twenty-two first graders who started here in '40 only six, Marcia Lenhard, Colleen Kelley, Al Olsen, Bill Bjorkman, Dick Davis and Ronald Reeves have remained to the end, The rest of the present Senior Class has joined these either in grades, or in high school, and we will all miss the many happy days spent here. After starting school, and going through the usual trials and tribulations of elementary stu- dents for eight years, we graduated. What a great day we thought that was, We started as Freshmen in nineteen forty-eight with many new friends and foes. There were twenty-one bewildered students in the class but with the help of our advisors, Mrs. Sargent and Mr. Moberg, we managed to survive. The next year we thought we were used to all th e rules, but we were still lowerclassmen and learned differently. '50 found us as Juniors! Upperclassmen. The biggest event was the Prom. We took the Seniors to dinner at Browns, and afterward attended the Prom, which was held in the gym. We also sponsored a Sadie Hawkins dance, presented the play, “The Groom Said No! , and sold candy, pop, and ice cream during the noon hour. 1951, 29 Seniors enrolled in school, Our first activity was the Christmas Ball, and since this was the last one we would be in charge of we took great pains in decorating and making it a success, Our class play was cancelled because the cast failed to show up for practice. Now as I come to the close of our class history, I would like to take this opportunity to wish the best of luck to our Alma Mater and to those who are remaining, along with the new ones to come in the future, 7 132 So.

We feel that Warrenton High is to be congratulated for the “pep” it has shown in the last nine months. In active demonstrations of school spirit on the side-lines, the school did all that could be expected in backing the teams. Support by the rooters has always been a big factor at our school. eae Jo oe Treas. , Kay Magnuson, Sec. , Colleen elley, Pres., Julia Corkill, Sgt. at Arms. N Hitchman, V.

[ In our first year as an A school we lost all seven league games! All in all, however, we didn't do too badly considering 10 of the last year's regular 11 were missing, and that this was our first year in the “big time”. Perhaps the Warriors best games were against Seaside, Vernonia, and Clatskanine, Score athalf-time during the Seaside game was 6-0, our favor, We marched to the goal line 5 times during the Vernonica game, scoring twice, Clatskanine proved our best defensive effort as we held the Tigers to 12 points. Next year's prospects are looking up, with eight of this year's regular starters back to whoop it up over their opponents, CSEEAE AAA L ECLA LA GEESE M AALS R CEO E EE OOOO E EOE EEE OOOO TTT -C-C-T TTC -G-g © D- D:D: D DD: D- D- De De De De De De De De De De De De De De De av we De De De De De De De De De De De De De De De De De De ve De De De De De De De De De De De De Be De De De De De D� De De De De De De D- Ds Warrenton 6 Seaside 1y Warrenton 0 Parkrose 39 Warrenton 0 Scappoose 32 Warrenton 6 St. Helens 49 i] Warrenton 4 Rainer 37 9 2 z Warrenton 0 Garibaldi 18 i 9 Warrenton is} Vernonia 42 9 9 : £ Warrenton 6 Concordia 25 = Warrenton 0 Clatskanine 12 2 9 ) 49 .

SECOND ROW: Ford, Bjorkman, Hansen, Smotherman, Sickler, Tolbert, The first game for the Warriors was against Sacred Heart at Tillamook, and after a half- time score of 27 to 2 in our favor, we knew that we had really graduated to the A-school level, Things clouded over for awhile, however, when we played the first few Lower Columbia League games, Then the sun shone through and we thumped the league-leading Scappoose Indians on their home floor, Our spirits and self-confidence sparked us to wins over Knappa-Swensen (State 1B runner-up), and Seaside (2nd place holder in our league at that time), On our home floor we nearly upset both Rainer and Parkrose who were first division Lower Columbia League teams, Although we showed plenty of spirit and fight in our first year of A-2 basketball com- petition, we ended up with a 12 lost and 2 won record to give us undisputed title of Cellar Dwellers , With most of the team down with the flu, we entered the District 10 Tournament at Astoria on February 29th and were eliminated the 2nd night of play. Next year we have five well-experienced returning lettermen and some fine J, V. players will advance to bolster the Warrior basketball squad, High Scorer for the season was James Wakeman with 253 points, Individual game scoring honor was also won by Jim with 31 points being racked up by him against Parkrose.
