FLAGS PRESENTED T0 WASHINGTON HIGH In a very impressive ceremony two flags were presented on dedication day to our new school. In the top picture Mr. Archie R. Nelson, on behalf of the American Legion, presented a flag to XVashington High School. This flag at one time had flown over the U. S. Senate building in Washingtoii, D. C. and had been obtained by U. S. Senator Guy M. Gillette for his home town, for he too is a Cherokee High School graduate. High School Principal M. O. Moe accepted the flag for the school. Mr. Earl Hobbs, assisted by members of the school band, raised the flag to the top of the new pole and this flag became the first to fly over Wfashington High. As this historic flag unfurled in the breeze on that beautiful October day, all our hearts were touched as we experi- enced a new and greater appreciation of our great nation - the land of the free and the home of the brave. M at i s-by S? , rss' james Smith, senior and president of Student Council, accepts from Mrs. Glenn Wfaldron a new flag which was given to our new school by the V. lf. XV. Auxiliary.
