Both possessed excellent scholastic averages and both were prominent in extra curricular activ- ities. The Josten Award was given to Betty Nolan, Tom Murphy, Fritz Bierhaus and Oren Steinfeldt in recognition for their qualities of leadership and service as displayed in their years in high school. The National Honor Society was chosen by students and faculty. It is composed of students who ranked in the upper one-third of the class and who were noted for the services they so willingly offered to any activity that would benefit the school.

BIERHAUS ny S2GOROLON GERaOe i ey ee JEWELL TRCOSUn are eke oe. ae i when OLSON C) The days of pencil boxes and tablets ended for- ever for a group of young people who entered the Washington High School early in September of 1935 as Sophomores. The first important feature of : the year was the election of officers. Chet Olson C 2) was elected to head the class with the assistance of three others: Pete Zimmerman, Tudie Dybvick, and Don Sande. Miss Farrankop and Miss Holvick were chosen as advisers. The initial social affair was a C) roller skating party held at Gardener’s Hall. Later in the year the class took active interest in a sleigh- ride party. Like every class, candy sales were held in order to raise a little necessary money. The social C year was rounded out with the holding of the ) annual picnic at Gilbert Lake. The Juniors started their year as upper classmen, under the leadership of Oren Steinfeldt, Tommy Murphy, Gene Bierhaus and Jim Fitzharris. Mr. STEINFELDT BIERHAUS Squiers and Mr. Burton were elected as class ad- JEWELL OLSON J visers. During the year a basket social was sponsor- uy ed as an unusual method of moneymaking. Music : i for dancing was furnished by the Hi Hatters. Mr. Squiers acted as auction- eer and the bedecked baskets were sold and the contents eaten. Then came more dancing and the party ended around twelve o’clock. Bob Olson, with the aid of Ruth Engle, managed the candy selling at basketball games as another means of making money. The Juniors presented their class play “Growing Pains” on December ninth. The leads in this humor- ous three act play were taken by Betty Nolan, Bob Holden, Eunice De- Roseir and Tommy Murphy. The highlight of the year was the Junior- | Senior Prom called the “Cotton Ball’ given April third. A snowstorm 'y heralded that date, but in spite of that fact, it was the event of the year. fF The class closed their activities as Juniors with a picnic and prepared to 1 become dignified Seniors the following year. In the fall of 1937 we begun another year of hard work and fun. Oren Steinfeldt again guided the class through the year with the aid of Fritz | Bierhaus acting as vice president and Juanita Jewell and Bob Olson as | secretary and treasurer. Candy sales were sponsored throughout the year bd = in order to make our budget balance a little better and after all the dues i= C e| were paid everything was all right. The year’s festivities started off with j 1 various sun-lite dances coming to a climax on December 4 when a Christ- a mas dance was given for the Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. The girls’ % orchestra provided the music and a good time was had by all. December a) 11 marked the date for the annual Christmas banquet given exclusively for the Seniors. The dinner turned out to be a great success which was due to the various committees. Santa Claus came down the chimney and everyone received a gift of some kind or another. The prom was dated ‘“ for May 7 and the gym was decorated so as to represent a vineyard; be- mx ing very cleverly done. Dance music was provided by an outside orchestra and a very appropriate floor show was given. All in all everyone had a : swell time. “Ghost Train” was chosen for the Senior class play. It had : everything - romance, comedy, humor and mystery. The cast consisted of a Tom Murphy, Eunice DeRoseir, Betty Nolan, Pat Sewell, Don Sande, Bob wid Holden and five others who did much toward its success. Came Bacca- laureate and Commencement - - high school days are over, and we hope that the coming senior class enjoys their final year as much as we did.
