ujnsHinGTonmn At the end of every school term students anxiously await their copies of the Wash¬ ingtonian. We, the staff, hope that you will not be disappointed in the annual of 1946. Last year the Student Body chose the name Washington Huskies for our athletic teams, and for that reason the staff chose Husky dogs as the theme for this annual, and orange and black, our school colors, for the color scheme. The section pages were planned and drawn by Caroline Diaz. We extend our thanks to Mr. Kibby and the printing classes for making the Wash¬ ingtonian covers, and to the art department for helping with the section pages. Mem¬ bers of the fifth period photography group who helped take the pictures were Bob Wasley, Edna Lewis, Diane Ferraris, Bonnie Poole, Winifred Rogers, Eva Corchero, Frances Monte, and Patricia Lopez. Each member of the staff enjoyed working on this year ' s annual and hopes that every one of you will enjoy looking at it. We also hope that in the years to come it will bring back pleasant memories of your days spent at Washington High.

THE HATCHET STAFF This year, as in the past, the Hatchet has been the students ' chief source of school news. The Hatchet was started in 1916 and has been a regular part of school life since then. The rush outside the cafeteria on Friday expresses the interest and curiosity the Hatchet excites in the student body. Headed by Harvey Hernandez, editor; Annette Kirkish and Roy Stubblefield, assist¬ ant editors; and Vivian Maciel, business manager; the Hatchet has done an excellent job of keeping the students informed on the latest happenings at WUHS through¬ out the year. A large number of reporters and feature writers have contributed the material for the Hatchet. Doing this work outside of class, the reporters have done a good job of relating events as they happened. Much of the success of the Hatchet could not have been attained without the advice and assistance of Miss Knoles and Mr. Kibby. The printing classes were in charge of printing the paper. f The Hatchet is available to all students who have student body cards and is also sent to members of the Alumni Association. For one year after graduation students receive the Hatchets bi-monthly. A cub staff has been organized this year. It is composed of all the students who are planning to write for the Hatchet next year. Having a cub staff will avoid having all | inexperienced members on the Hatchet staff next year, and we are looking forward to i an excellent paper. | R. Stubblefield, H. Hernandez, A.

CRLIFORnifl SCHOLARSHIP FEDeROTlOH Chapter I I I of the California Scholarship Federation of Washington Union High School started the year 1945-46 with 12 students as members. The C. S. F. has been very active this year and has accomplished many worthwhile things. The Memorial Art Gallery, organized by the C. S. F. has received many excellent con¬ tributions from various organizations. In particular, the American Legion and its auxiliary contributed pictures in honor of all the gold star servicemen of Washington Township. This year the C. S. F. has also sponsored a Code of Ethics which it hopes will have a fine effect on the thinking of Washington High students. A formal initiation is usually held each semester. This year the initiation took place in the school cafeteria February 20, and the membership was increased to 18 students. A student is eligible to become a member only if his semester grades total ten points. Life membership is attained by any student who remains in the Scholarship Society for six semesters, including one semester of the Senior year. This student receives a gold seal on his diploma and a gold scholarship pin signifying life membership. Norma Betten¬ court and Thelma Biale have already earned life membership, and several more may qualify for this honor in the last semester. With the enrollment increasing, it is hoped that more students will strive for C. S. F. honors.
