Its members scour the town and environs to find kind friends who help financially by subscribing the wherewithal for meeting expenses. The service rendered by this group is entirely voluntaryg they choose themselves, so to speak. The work is organized under the general direction of a faculty supervisor, and its details are looked after by the advertising manager. Without the labors of this committee, no yearbook would be possible. TYPING COMMITTEE o The members of the Typing Committee prepared the material in the yearbook for the printer. Theirs is a task which is not showy and for which, many times, no recognition is given. They have worked faithfully and well, in order to contribute their share in making Cache 1940 a success. In the picture they are seen at work just as they were many times during Senior office practice period. Thirteevz

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.

GRADUATICJN Class History o When we entered W. H. S. in 1936, our class numbered 99. While in our Sophomore year, the number jumped to 109, due to the transporting of Oxford students who formerly attended Hackettstown High, to Washington. In our junior year, however, the number dropped to 95, and has continued to drop until today we have but 93 members. Afternoon dances given in our Sophomore and junior years provided fun for all who attended. Both records and orchestras were used for music. In our Junior year we held a very successful Prom. The gymnasium was decorated most effectively as a boat, with multi-colored streamers and life-buoys artistically placed about the hall. Our class has had an enviable athletic record well worth recording. Among the stars are such names as: Basketball: Don Keenan, Sarg Keenan, Wally Drechsel, Ray Kahler, Gus Kovolsky, Harold Cole. Football: Sarg Keenan, ,Iohn Specht, Frank Swain, Gus Kovolsky, Don Keenan, jim Strunk, Bob Baldwin, Bill Switzer, Chuck Wyckoff, 'I-Iank Ross. Baseball: XVally Drechsel, Sarg Keenan, George Skinner, Frank Swain. Tennis: Ray Kahler, Dick LaRue, Eric Marschner. Wrestling: Charlie Kocher, Frank Swain, Charles Hubbard, jack Newton, Metro Cavitch, Norman Reed. Honors, also, have been won by our mighty men. On the county teams for football Wally Drechsel and john Specht have gained places. Gus Kovolsky, too, earned a place on the first team for basketball and Wally Drechsel placed on the second team. In 1937 Frank Swain won third place in the 135 lb. class for All-State Wrestling. For the first time in the history of W. H. S. an Inter- Class Wrestling Meet was held this year. The Seniors came out the victors, as did the girls in the Inter-Class Basketball Games. Fourteen
