DEVELOPING THE INDIVIDUAL ,.-f- ' o Not only does Washington High School strive to prepare a small percentage of boys and girls for college, a larger number for business and commerce, and others for general farming, but as one can see by turning these pages, we are concerned with the development of each individualeffmentally, physically and socially. Our six courses of study, namely: College Preparatory, Agricultural, College Preparatory Agricultural, General Business, Secretarial, and General efepresent adequate opportunity for mental growth. Football, Baseball, Basketball, Wrestling, Track, Tennis, Boys' and Girls' Nights, Health classes, Hygiene instruction, Medical examination, and inter- class meets round out a physical program of which we are proud. Socially, we are striving to develop leaders in our Student Council and various clubs, and group captains in our Health classes. Here also, each one learns to work with others. Matinee dances and group instruction, discussing of etiquette and courtesy rules in Home rooms and Home Economics classes, instruction in civic duties and American- ism in our social science classes--all these tend to bring about the desired social growth. If a pupil is not interested in organized athletics, our guidance teachers may find him an interest in dramatics, music, library, shop, cooking, sewing or newspaper work where he may learn to express his own individuality.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Faculty Advisors: julia Meaker, Mary T. Harle o The executive committee is composed of the class otiicers, four members chosen by the president, and the faculty advisors., Their duties are of various sorts, all relative to decisions on matters of general class policy. They also make preliminary sug- gestions which are later approved or dis- approved in a general class meeting. The class othcers, under the guidance and leadership of the faculty advisors, have a vast amount of responsibility, and those who hold these positions should deem it both a privilege and an honor to be selected as the leaders and representatives of their class.

PERSONALS COMMITTEE o The members of this committee had the responsibility of gathering together the information about the individual members of the senior class. Their work included the composing of the descriptive couplets accompanying the write-up for each person. It is the hope of the members of the com- mittee that each of their classmates may, in the future, look back on these humble at- tempts at rhyming with forbearance as well as some degree of pleasure, as it is their purpose to recall only pleasant memories in the relations of their class- mates of 1940, in Washington High School. Look them over occasionally and chuckle. They will keep you from forgetting old times and old friends-keep you loyal to old XV. H. S.
