EMMA SANDERS N THIS, the tenth anniversary of our school, we pause to look back- ward over the years of its existence. Washington high school opened in February, 1926, with a group of approximately 250 pupils and 13 teachers. Mr. Paul Th. Ruster- holz, a former member of the Central high school faculty, was ap- pointed principal. The first group of seniors, ten in number, graduated in Ianu- ary, 1930. Rapidly increasing enrollment made it necessary to build an addition to the school which was opened in 1932. Today the faculty numbers 50 and the student body nearly l,500. There are now 613 Washington graduates, and there will be about 200 more in Iune of this year. To all these pioneers who have helped to build Washington high school, we, the seventh graduating class, owe our sincere gratitude and appreciation. We pay especial tribute, however, to our class adviser, Mrs. Emma Sanders, who has successfully guided us through our high school days. To her, our friend and leader, we dedicate the 1936 President.

Kindly advice by the dean of girls, Miss Elsa Diekmann, has set many a girl on the right path. Always willing to find that ref- erence book for you is Miss Anna Guthorrnsen, librarian. It may seem strange now, but Miss Margaret Curtis, nurse, treat- ed many cases of frostbite last winter. Preparation of appetizing food for faculty and students is under the guidance of Mrs. Alma Lund- gren. Custodian of the building, Mr. Nick Stadtfeld, views the engine room and smiles, for he sees things running smoothly. Athletic proficiency of boys and girls taking gym may be attributed to Miss Ruby lane Reinhardt and Mr. Harry Nelson. Explaining factoring, equations, and geometrical figures is the work of Miss Isabel Nimis and Mr. Adolf Ingebretson. Mr. Albert Bother, French teach- er, Miss Elsa Diekmann, German teacher, and Miss Dorothea Zehnder, Latin instructor, try to woo us away from the good old English language. Temporary producer of pain, Dr. E. I. Lorentzen, school dentist, by his craftsmanship removes the cause of recurring pain. Solving problems on the board is the pleasant l?l diversion of these students. After conjugating verbs at the board, one is less likely to make mistakes, we hope! 1 A W., Qeggf? s 'if Art and Music Miss Bessie Mulholland, Mrs. Betty Pritchett, and Miss Louise Lietzau.

Page 27 Senior class officers: Bernard Tschida, president: Alan Obst, vice presidentp Mae Gibbons, secretary, and Dorothy Klein, treasurer. Senior Class History EETING our adviser, Mrs. Emma Sanders, for the first time as an organized group in the fall of 1933, we promptly set about choosing student directors to serve during our sophomore year. As an impetus to our future undertakings, Ber- nard Tschida was elected president: Lorayne Sweeney, vice president: Rose Weiss, secretary, and Melvin Peterson, treasurer. The social event of our first year was the get-acquainted party given in the gym on April 6 which helped us know our brother classmates and incidentally start a class fund. One of our members with a yen for studying brought our class a step up the ladder of prominence by being awarded the All-School scholarship cup during her sophomore year. Her name engraved on the cup, is Edna Posteher. As the result of a year's unifying experiences, we' entered our junior year working more like a well-functioning organization. The first of a series of out- standing events 1n our junior year was the election of Bernard Tschida as pres- ident for his second consecutive year with diminutive Alan Obst as vice president an-d Mae Gibbons and Melvin Peterson secretary and treasurer respectively. Twelve formed the group in charge of our initial sunlite given December l4, 1934. March 1 and April 26 were dates on which other sunlites were given. We were responsible for the presentation of the ultra-important social event of the school year, the Iunior-Senior Prom. Work was started early in April, and Iames Staudenmaier, chairman, and a corps of assistants were rewarded by the happiness of nearly one hundred couples who danced the night of May 17 to the music of Merlin Green's orchestra midst the oriental setting. Dorothy Klein brought the last honor to us as the Iunior class by keeping the All-School Scholarship cup in our possession. For the third consecutive year we placed faith in Bernard Tschida's executive ability by electing him Senior class president. Other elected officers were Alan Obst, vice president, Mae Gibbons, secretary, and Dorothy Klein, treasurer. Sunlites sponsored by the class added to the fun life of this final year. Prominent seniors formed most of the cast for Streets of New York judged the best dramatic performance ever staged by the Thespians. The play was successful as a melodrama and from a financial viewpoint. Although it entailed the expenditure of a large amount of money, time, and effort on the part of the annual staff, this book is tangible proof of our largest enterprise. In retrospect we note that Charles Kreyer was acclaimed the best football man in the city last fall. Athletes from this year's class who also have helped place Washington above the average in the field of sports are: Victor Calloway, Kenneth Anderson, William Thorsen, Drexel Pugh, Richard Radman, Paul Selbin, Alex Hildebrant, Kenneth Gondek, Ray Schaaf, Alfred Denisson, Lawrence Olsen, Harry Chapple, and Edna Schwartz.

Meetings are held the third Tuesday of each month in room 203, immediately following seventh period. In co-operation with the seniors, the iuniors sponsored sunlite dances on February 14 and March 17. Proceeds were used to help defray ex- penses of the Prom. The Iunior class, together with the Sophomore class, held a series of dancing lessons for boys in room 209 and in the gym as a preparation for the Prom. Miss Isabel Nimis acted as instructor, and music was furnished by Miss Grace Benz at the piano and by a phonograph. lunior boys are well represented in sports. George Katz and Henry Wilczyk are co-captains of the l936 football team. Other juniors prominent on the grid squad are Clifford Adams, Robert Bossard, and Nick Holman. lohn Perry, business manager of the Surveyor, is president of the Iunior class. Assisting officers are: Frieda Koenig, vice president: Marie Steinhauser, secretary, and Keith Austin and Kenneth Anderson. co-treasurers. However, now the hands of the clock, busy all night, have turned to twelve, and as the dancers sway gracefully to the strains of Home, Sweet Home, they yearn in vain for more dancing. The Juniors all smile with satisfaction, for they realize that the 1936 Prom has been one of the most attractive ever held at Washington high school.

This keystone organization dates back to the spring of l926, although it did not start its work officially until September of that year. Pioneer officers of the council were: Ann Capeti, president, Henry Sweeny, vice president: loseph Kissen, secretaryg Roy Nicholson, treasurer, and Marion Gilmore, assistant secretary with Miss Frances Blake and Miss Celina Pilger, faculty advisers. Early objectives of the organization were to cooperate with the administra- tion, to keep order, maintain cleanliness throughout the building, and to encour- age high standards of scholarship. In order to eliminate congestion on the stairways, committees composed of council members made a study to determine what traffic regulations were nec- essary. Their suggesions were approved by the principal, and the regulations put into effect. fMi l'i 1 ROWRI-1?Fxgeda Koenig, Evelyn Giel, Flora Imbrone, Bernard Tschida, Wanda Rembish, Myrtle Houliston, i a est.

The council conducted campaigns for cleanliness, against noise, and to keep the grounds an-d building beautiful. Proceeds from the sale of W. H. S. pencils and purple and gold skull caps were used to buy shrubbery for the school lawn. ln order to encourage high scholarship, a committee of council members compiled the first honor roll and has continued to do so. During the years which have intervened, activities of the All School Council have increased and now include annually the provision of a Christmas tree for the cafeteria, the presentation of a scholarship cup, and participation in activities of the Northwest Federation of Student Councils.

At the beginning of each semester, a get acquainted party is given for all girls new to the school. Parties and teas are held by the Big Sisters every month. Each spring a tea is given for all girls interested in attending college. At Christmas, the girls made bean bags and donated toys and books which were distributed among the children of the less fortunate families in the neighborhood. The lunior-Senior Sisters sponsored the first football game of the season which was played between Washington and Me- chanic Arts. They sold over 600 tickets. This organization, under the leader- ship of Miss Diekmann, held its first meet- ing in room 208, in l93l, when Service was adopted as their motto.

Girl Reserves EN years ago a local group ot Girl Reserves was organized under the di- rection ot Miss Dorothy Welsh. At present, eighty Washington girls, with Miss Dorothea Zehnder as adviser, meet every other Monday after eighth period for business and social activities. Ruth Carlson, who is also president of the lnterclub council ot St. Paul Girl Reserves, presides at all meetings. She is assisted by Clara Albert, vice president, and Arlene Foerster, program chairman, The secretary and treasurer are Sophie Kiresuk and Virginia Miller, respectively. Margaret Cor- rigan and Catherine Tschida have charge of the social activities-, and Hazel Kieger is the clubs representative to the lnterclub council. This year Washington Girl Reserves doubled their 1935 sale ot doughnuts by selling 517 dozen. Katherine Page, with 60 dozen, was the highest seller. The sale netted the club S35 which may be spent sending girls to the Grace Dodge camp, at Lake Elmo, as well as Sl2 to use as the club's donation to the camp repair fund. 1 4 8 Page 46 Row I-Daniel Fuller, Alphonse Behr, Lloyd Ashland, Margaret Kunze, Glendon Lindstrorn, Smilax Sund- quist, Arline Berthiaume, Anthony Merkl, Ernest Chicone, Frank Schrieber, Richard Conradi.

Orchestra is now a one-half credit subject offered to any student who can play an instrument. This well-known organization has accompanied the chorus in operettas and played for the assembly programs. Mrs. Betty Pritchett, instructor, says that the aim of the orchestra is to create in the students a taste for fine music. A younger brother to the orchestra is the band which now numbers twenty- five members as compared to fourteen when it was first organized in the fall of l934. In order to qualify for membership one must own and be able to play an instrument. The band's main purpose is to furnish music for various school pro- grams such as assemblies, football games, and basketball games. Officers at the present time are Michael Degel, president: Anthony Merkl, secretary and treasurer: Smilax Sundquist, social chairman: Robert Adams and Andrew Kaess, librarians.

Vocal Music OCAL music at Washington finds expression in the work ot three separate organizations, the Girl's Glee club, the Mixed chorus, and the Boys' quartette. Girls who have been enrolled in the Mixed chorus class for one semester and who show special aptitude tor vocal music are encouraged to join the Girls' Glee club. ln years past, the Girls' Glee club, together with the Mixed chorus, pre- sented a large number of operettas and Cantatas. Some ot the outstanding ones have been On the Nile, Nautical Knot, Childhood of l-liawathaf' Pays oi the Floating Island, LelaWala, Pickles, The Harvest, and School Girls of Iapanf' Outstanding accomplishments ot recent years have been the presentation ot Princess Ting Ah Ling on May l8 and l9 in 1933, and Bells of Capistrano, on December 6 and 7 in 1935. Most recently organized ot the vocal groups is the Boys' quartette, consisting ot Gordon Henthorne, first bassy Lewis Williams, second bassg Bernard Tschida, first tenor, and Anthony Merkl, second tenor.

This club offers a new and absorbing approach to history, interpreting 'the spirit of different countries with truth and force. Many students feel that Travel club programs have been oi inspiration and value to them in connection with their school work. They await the movies which are frequently a feature of Travel club programs with intense expecta- tion and enthusiasm. Moving pictures ot Europe and North and South America have been shown through the courtesy of the St. Paul Institute of Art. During the current school year talks dealing with all parts of the world have been given by members of the club. Bert Broberg discussed The Ethiopian Question As I See lt. George Doi- tin, who lived in Rumania for a number of years, spoke on My School Days in Rumaniaf' I have heard a number of students and adults talk on foreign education, but I have never heard anyone give a better talk than the one given by George Dofiinf' was the comment made by Mr. O. D. Billing, assistant principal. Okonesky, Wendell Clark. Other students who spoke were: Dolores Hasenzahl and Rita Carroll, who discussed their trips through the East and West. Gladys Schmidt, a former member of the Travel club and a graduate of '35, returned to give the club a talk on her recent trip to Mexico.

Travel Club EETINGS of the Travel club are held in the school auditorium from 2:30 to 5 p. m. on the first Wednesday of each month. Of- ficers of the club are: Leonard Boesel, presidentp Eda Lynn Spink, vice presidentg Rose Marie Adams, secretary, and Gene Gibson, treasurer. Attention is centered upon historic objects and the background of the com' munity. Places which have been on the club's itinerary are Fort Snelling, Old Round Tower, Mendota, the famous Sibley house and the state capitol. Seventy-five members attended a Christmas party held last December in room 209. Afterward gifts were exchanged around the Christmas tree in the cafeteria where lunch was served. Mr. P. Th. Rusterholz, principal, talked to the club on travel. He said, Next in value to traveling is the study of different places of interest. For entertainment, an amateur hour was conducted with Leonard Boesel as Major Bowes and Thomas Hartman as Graham MacNamee. Those who demonstrated hidden talent were Shirley Quale, Ruth Weiss, Margaret Wisdorf, Lillian Guetz, Lewis Williams, Alfred Closmore, Verna Sundquist, Harold Larsen, and Eda Lynn Spink. First prize was given to Shirley Quale, second to Lewis Williams, and the third to Alfred Closmore. Although the Travel club, which celebrated its first anniversary in Febru- ary, is among the newer organizations at Washington, it already occupies an important place in the extra-curricular program of the school owing to the en- thusiasm of its members and the loyalty of its officers and advisers. The club has an active membership of one hundred and twenty-five. it , ,.-, L Q, 1 . .1i0.?,,, Page 49 Page 50 Row I-Miss Marion Schroeder, June Peterson, Dorothy Kunze, Arlene Berthiaume, Darlene Viall, Idelle Kaplan, Evelyn Burq.

Thespians O promote dramatic interests in the school and to aid in all stage pro- ductions are the aims of the school's dramatic department. The Dramatic club was first organized under Miss Evelyn B. Pages direction, and the first members were dramatic enthusiasts of l928. Beginning with the year l933, the Dramatic club was given the name Thespians under the direction of Miss Marion Schroeder. Each term tryouts for membership are conducted. Students taking part must walk across the stage as three different characters, pantomime a person in a difficult situation, and recite a poem with adequate expression. Meetings are held the second and fourth Thursdays of each month in room lll. At every other meeting refreshments are served with a dance following. Every fall term a masquerade dance is given. All members are requested to be attired in special costume for this occasion. Some of the Thespians' outstanding presentations have been Streets of New York, in '35g Oh, Clarissa, in '34g Princess Ting Ah Ling, in '33g Fal- con, in '327 Scrap of Paper, in '3ly Tweedles, in '3O. They assisted with Applejack in 'ZQQ and 'Gammer Gurton's Needle, in 228. Besides these pro- ductions, the club has participated in and assisted with many assemblies. Officers of the Thespians for this year are Walter Wegman, president: Victor Claussen, vice president, Lillian Guetz, secretaryg Howard Thompson, treasurer, and Miss Marion Schroeder, adviser. l . i I The cast: Lillian Guetz as Mrs. Fairweather, Edna Posteher, Lucy Fairweather, Ted Horvath, Mark Livingstone, Casimir Cyptar, Gideon Bloodgood, Kenneth Anderson, Badger, Lorayne Sweeney, Alida Blood- goodg Richard Radman, Captain Fairweather, Walter Weqman, Paul Fairweather, Eda Lynn Spink, Mrs. Puffy, Howard Thompson, Mr. Putty, Thomas Hartman, Dan Putty, and Victor Claussen, Edwards. ' Streets Qt New York ASHINGTONITES enjoyed an old-fashioned melodrama entitled Streets of New York staged jointly by the Thespians and the Senior class on the evenings of December l2 and l3 under the direction of Miss Marion Schroeder, expression teacher. Production followed accurately the type used at the first performance of the play at Wallack's theatre in New York in December, 1857. The characters, nine boys and four girls, wore modern dress of the pre-war period-hoop skirts for the girls, tightly fitting trousers, stiff high collars, and checkered coats for the boys. Dramatic students who ushered for the performance were dressed in the costumes of the time. There were fourteen scenes in the melodrama including a double scene and a snow scene which was so realistic that during the matinee for grade school children on Wednesday, several of them thought there was a hole in the roof of the auditorium and that it was snowing in. Stage manners and gestures of i850 were imitated by the seniors of 1935. Attempted murder, a suicide, death, robbery, romance, and a Wedding, com' bined with clever dialogue, were features of the fast-moving plot. The five-act play required nine changes of scenery. Members of the cast provided special entertainment features between the acts. The production netted Sl35.66 profit of which 3326.97 went to the Senior class and SlO9.69 to the dramatic department.

Library Staff ASHINGTON high school's first library was opened ten years ago in room 208 with Miss Blanche Spooner in charge. From this small beginning has grown our present library located on the first floor of the new addition. Rapidly filling shelves attest to its increasing importance both as a source of reference material and for study purposes. Iuniors, seniors, and post graduates are eligible for membership in the Library staff provided that they are interested in the work, have executive abil- ity, or special aptitude for typing or lettering. The accomplishments of this organization are two-fold. Not only does it perform service to the other students, but the staff members themselves gain practical library experience. With an average daily attendance of 400 pupils, much research and cler- ical Work are necessary, and for this reason, Miss Anna Guthormsen, libra- rian, has appointed sixteen pages. She is further assisted by Mrs. Ruth Viaux who has been doing clerical work for the library since last November. The largest donation of books this year was made by the Student Council.

Historical Society SMALL but industrious organization at Washington, the Historical society, was founded in September l929, under the supervision of Miss Mary O'Keete, English teacher. During the seven years this group has been organized, it has preserved many school treasures. One ot these is the only com- plete Surveyor tile. The society keeps a card catalog of the alumni in which it tiles all the social news pertaining to graduates. ln its athletic scrapbook are clippings dating back several years. Another scrapbook contains news of ac- tivities, clubs, and classes. Annuals and programs from plays and operettas have also been preserved. The organization always consists ot not over fifteen students who are nomin- ated by their home room teachers be- cause ot their high scholastic standing, dependability, and good school spirit.

Social Science Society NDING its third year ot activity, the Social Science society has built for itself an enviable place among Washington's extra-curricular activities. The society, whose motto is Facing a New Horizon, holds its meetings the second and fourth Tuesdays of every month. lts object is to arouse in its members an increased interest in the study of the social sciences and to prepare them tor an active and useful citizenship. This organization prefers to elect as its members students who maintain a B average in the social sciences, but this requirement may be waived in case of an applicant who is strong in character, originality, leadership, and personality. At present the society has a total of thirty-one members. Mr. Edward Engson, social science teacher, has been adviser ot the society since it was first organized in October, 1933. Lillian Guetz is president of the society: Betty Cottrell, vice president, Ruth Whittles, recording secretary, Marcella Forbes, financial secretary, and Lucille Foerster, treasurer. Occasionally more serious interests give way to good fellowship. and mem- bers of the society enjoy a social event. During the past year there have been two picnics and a Thanksgiving party.

Roy Wressell wants to collect dues, states the president. Im- mediately all noise stops. The boys lower their heads, draw imag- inary circles on the floor with their toes, and gaze at the treasurer from beneath lowered brows. No dues? queries Mr. Grieman. Well, we'll have the minutes. Everyone begins talking again at the top ot his voice. The president at- tacks the table viciously, and secretary Okonesky shouts out the minutes of the last meeting. What do We have for new . . A party! A dance! A hike! and so on 'till the clock rolls around to a late hour when every one rushes for the door without getting much done. Mr. Meier, adviser, wipes his forehead and heaves a sigh of relief. Despite their occasional exuberancy, the Hi-Y boys have many accom- plishments to their credit. Cooperating with the Girl Reserves, they volun- teered their services to the Santa Claus club and made or reclaimed manv Christmas toys. During their more se- rious moments the boys hold discus- sions ot economic and political prob- lems in the world today. Members are now interested in organizing junior units of the Hi-Y. Mr. Paul Meier is the ad- viser. Q9 A r- fa . Page 55 ge 56 THE 1935 IUNIOR-SENIOR PROM F 2 -all Prom. Chairman cmd Guest-1936 Prom.

Football Y WINNING its second undisputed title in four years, the Washington high school football team finished its fourth consecutive season in the up- per bracket. ln 1932, the North End aggregation, under the direction of Playford Reed., marched to its first city title. The following season led by Kenneth Hunt, star President athlete, the North Enders shared the crown with Mechanic Arts. ln 1934, the Presidents again tied with the Trainer team, this time the two teams tying for second place. ln 1935, under the direction of Lyle Koch, newly-ap- pointed coach, the Presidents gained their second undisputed title with the lightest football team the school has ever pro- duced. Led by Captain Chuck Kreyer, the Presidents got off to a.poor start being held to a two-all tie, the result of two blocked kicks by the Mechanic Arts eleven. After that game the team began playing heads-up ball and finished the season with four wins and a tie, later to be defeated by Roosevelt high, Minneapolis title-holder, in the annual Twin City game by a 20-6 count. The Presidents, outweighed thirty pounds to the man, put up one of the most remarkable football games seen in city conference tilts in many years, but finally the Teddy weight began to tell, and the Mill City team failed to make a second counter after being out-fought and out-gained in the first half, which ended in a 6-all tie.

Football N THE curtain raiser against the Trainers, the Presidents out-played the Downtown boys for four periods but could not break the 2-2 tie which resulted in the first quarter. Cd After outplaying the Central eleven for three quarters, the Pres- idents' 6-U lead was threatened in the last period when the Minute- men combined a nice aerial game with their flashy running attack. They threat- ened to take the tilt, but the determined Kochmen offered a stiff forward wall to hold the Lexington avenue boys scoreless and to take the game from the Red and Black, 6-O. In the Harding tilt, the North Enders squeezed out a 3-O victory over the de- termined Maroon eleven by virtue of a field goal by Captain Kreyer. Against Humboldt the Presidents were on and combined a neat aerial at- tack, along with Kreyer's broken field running, to run up an 18-O score against the Indians. A forward toss from a fake kick formation, Kreyer to Pugh, resulted in a first score. Katz drove over the remaining two tallies. The lohnson tilt was to decide whether or not the Presidents had a clear title or one to be shared with Mechanic Arts' team. ln the last quarter, with the result in doubt and Washington leading 13-7, lohnson threatened, but Bill Thor- sen intercepted a pass and ran ninety-five yards for a touchdown to clinch the victory.

Loss of Chuck Kreyer, Vic Calloway, and Paul Selbin, at the X finish of the round was a blow to the tearn's chances. Defeats were often but not always onesided. Central's Minutemen Iived up to their shooting name to defeat Washington by a nine-point lead in both games, 24-15 and 31-22. In the first tilt against the Humboldt Indians, the North Enders ran up their largest score, 31-21. The team looked good in the win by outshooting the Indian five. Weakened by the 1oss of three regulars, the Presidents -dropped the second contest, 39-23. Playing fast ball in the first contest against Harding, Washington emerged on top, 22-21. Long shots gave the Maroons a victory in the second tilt which ended 34-21, when the Fahey team sank a barrage of long shots in the second half to take the game. Mechanic Arts spurted in the second half of the schedule to tie Iohnson for second place having won seven games. Included in the seven games were two victories over the Reedmen, 23-18 and 25-12. The Governor five out-lucked the North Enders to win a pair of close contests by 22-21 and 23-18. In two practice tilts with So. St. Paul the Presidents broke even. The Packer quint took the first game 50-29, in the return contest the Rice street boys outshot the Stockyard five to win 24-19. Golf Left to right: Drexel Pugh, Ernest Chicone, Lyle Bunton, Robert Keitel, William Thorsen, Alex Hildebrant, Victor Calloway, Tully Hickman, Harry Chapple, Lawrence Olsen, Carl Dahl, lack Thomas, Edward Cook, Kenneth Anderson. Track N 1935, for the third consecutive year, Washington high school ended the track season in the upper bracket. Coach Ted Salmon's Cinder- men, in three years of competition, have finished in second place twice and tied for the crown once, sharing honors with lohnson. Led by Victor Calloway, star dashman, the President tracksters met the St. Thomas frosh at the Cadet field early in the season. Elmer Hunziker, former Washington student, turned the tables on his Alma Mater to give the Toni- mies the meet. The Washington team then went into action in the Carleton relays: Vic Cal- loway outstepped the field of quarter milers to win, while Lawrence Olson, star timbertapper, took a second place in his event. When the city meet rolled around, Calloway took the 220 and 440-yard dashes, to collect ten points and set a new quarter mile record. The quartet of Olsen, Dahl, Thorsen, and Calloway won the 880 relay. These wins, combined with some seconds and thirds, gave the North End team second place. The Pres- idents lost their final dual meet by bowing to the Iohnson runners 69-44, then reversed the tables by beating Central 68-45. Under the direction of Coach Playford Reed, Washington golf mentor, the l935 divot team placed fourth in the annual city tournament in which six schools competed. Humboldt, led by lohn Bloyer, who star- red in several state tournaments, marched to the top position being followed closely by representatives of Central and Mechan- ic Arts. The President team, in fourth posi- tion, overshadowed the Iohnson and Hard- ing teams. Led by Ted Horvath, the North End golfers easily defeated the White Bear,University High,and Harding boys only to be set back by the Mechanic Arts and Humboldt clubbers by ll-7 and l5V2' ZV2. Six letter-winners crowned for their performances were: Ted Horvath, Bob Por- tell, Iohn Both, Louis Nicholson, Roy Zal- esky, and Roger Larson. Page 61 Page 62 Here we see an action picture of the S5 and S2 teams in the volley ball champion- ship playoff. After a hard-fought battle, the S5 team, with Rita Lee as captain, came out on top, with the S2 team, captained by Emily Webber, as runner-up. The Girls' Athletic association board, of which Miss Ruby lane Reinhardt is adviser, governs the sports and social events throughout the year. All G, A. A. activities take place during the airls' free periods on Fridays. Officers of the board are: Marion Frost, presidentg Verna Sundquist, vice presidentg Myrtle Houliston, secretary-treasurer, and Christine Lana, recording-secretary. Only those who have earned their major letters are eligible to become members of the club. To earn major letters, airls must amass an allotted number of points. Not more than IOU points may be earned in any one sport. The hiahest award a G. A. A. member can earn is the All-City seal. Here we have the S6 championship bas- ketball team with Barbara Haider acting as captain. The team won, but only after playing many close and hard-fought games. Virginia F ox, Edna Schwartz, and Beflyn Sorlien were the star point-getters for their team. Pictured at the right, we have a few well- poised archers. Good form is one of the first things which must be acquired before one can become an expert shot. Archery is held during fourth period on Fridays, and the girls are getting to be accurate markswomen. The girls who have earned their purple and gold tassels are members of the Archery club. Marie Steinhauser is the Archery representative on the G. A. A. board. Enrollment has greatly increased over that of last year, and the marksman' ship of the club has improved. Although handicapped by having only a handful of players, the volley ball team at the left skillfully succeeded in winning the championship. Despite the tough op- position furnished them by the other teams, Rita Lee, captain, managed to bring her team through the tournament and on to vic- tory.
