Since every week saw more of our boys leaving for service, Weatherwax students have realized how important it is for them to do their share for victory. Organized clubs within the school have devoted much of their time to activities which help bring the war to an end. The Red Cross and the bonds and stamps committees have received whole-hearted support from the student body. Of course the bond auction was a lot ot fun with the greatest purpose of all behind it. Football, basketball, and baseball games, as well as track and swimming meets have brought many loyal fans to the stands. The Sunday afternoon concerts, sponsored by the music department, were all well received, with the swing concert being the most popular of them all. To be remembered also are Charlie's Aunt,” and Class Night, two fine stage productions. For the fellows and girls of Aberdeen, there probably is no better place to go for a good time than the Teen-Age Canteen. Every afternoon and evening found a large crowd dancing, playing ping pong, pool, or just lounging in one of the many, big cozy chairs, perhaps drinking a coke that was bought right there at the fountain. To many, ''Meet you at the canteen” has come to mean a few hours of fun and relaxation at a place where the whole gang will be on hand. Our parents have shown unusual interest in this project. We thank them for their enthusiastic support, and hope our canteen serves the purpose for which it was organized — giving the youth of Aberdeen wholesome entertainment in wartime. For the seniors the fun and work of high school is but a pleasant memory; to the underclassmen the future year is an opportunity for the continuation of school activities. It is for them to make Weatherwax High School a place where both an academic and a social education can be obtained. DEDICA HERE will be many empty chairs at the commencement exercises. The boys to whom they belong are away somewhere fighting so that there will always be a time for graduation. Some may be crouched in a muddy fox-hole on a small South Pacific island; or some sweating in the boiling African sun; perhaps some standing watch on a Liberty freighter crossing the rough Atlantic ocean. They will not be here to walk across the stage with proud steps to receive their diplomas. The fellow in geometry class who always got an A” is now piloting a bomber over Germany; the star half-back in the football team is a Marine. These fellows cannot go to the dances and parties, nor can they take it easy” Senior Week. Their Senior Week may mean battle, pain, even death. It is to them that we, the Weatherwax High School students, proudly dedicate this, the 1944 Quinault. Our seniors, as they spend some of the happiest days of their lives, will be remembering these boys who are serving our country, and hoping, too, that soon we can all get together again to celebrate the victory. cAdministration glasses Activities cAthletics Jine Arts IF A C Ul IL T Y Miss Phelps Chemistry, Math.

SENATE A PON deciding to use activity cards, which would follow the same plan for raising vv ■—S V--I1 funds for activities as last year, the senators commenced their work at their first meeting. Service officers were elected in each homeroom to sell activity cards and bonds and stamps. They took care of any other sales during the year. Disputes arose when the dropping of the Sophomore-Junior play was suggested with Hi-Jinx to take its place. To have the two combined was favored. Because of the difficulty of publishing both the Quinault and the Ocean Breeze, the Senate passed a motion to back both, the first issue of the Breeze, and also the annual. A tin can drive was conducted by the three classes. The drive was won by the juniors. Weather-wax also took part in an old clothes drive that was nation-wide. Inspired by last year’s bond and stamp contest, the senators voted to challenge other schools to compete with us in another such contest. Everett, Hoquiam, and Olympia took part in the affair of which Colleen Lindsay was chairman. Since there had been such discord felt in the unity of our school, a new constitution was proposed to the Senate. Later it was introduced to the student body, voted upon, and defeated.

OCEAN BREEZE HIS year the Ocean Breeze staff killed two birds with one stone by enabling the student body to have their paper and by sending servicemen from Weatherwax the school news. Boys who had graduated, or who had left their studies to join the armed forces, were sent the Ocean Breeze free of charge, a service for which the staff received numerous letters of appreciation. The financial problem was the main question that the staff had to cope with, because the student body had decreased. However, this was solved by a big sales drive. There were other small complications that arise in putting out any paper, such as not always having enough news or stories to fill up space. However, the editorial staff handled this efficiently. Those who were on the editorial staff during the first semester were Florence Anthonson, Ernest Ball, Valera Domin, Maxine DuBay, Wayne Fry, Bill Furth, Russell Gardner, Dorothy Gudger, Milton Gust, Florence Hayvaz, Merle Hulet, Fat Johnson, Margaret Ann Jones, Jean Laaksonen, Maribeth McMillan, Jerry Norling, Celeste Purcell, Patt Wilkinson, and Aune Wirta. At the second semester the staff was composed of Ernest Ball, Dorothy Gudger, Florence Hayvaz, Merle Hulet, Pat Johnson, Margaret Ann Jones, Colleen Lindsay, Maribeth McMillan, Jerry Norling, Celeste Purcell, Pete Puljan, Gordon Peterson, Patt Wilkinson, Velma White, and Aune Wirta. To the ad staff fell the tedious job of selling and collecting ads, which help to pay for one-half of the cost of the paper. The ad staff was headed by Patt Wilkinson and working with her were Margaret Ann Jones, Maribeth McMillan, Aune Wirta, Velma White, Merle Hulet, Juanita Butts, Barbara Auld, and June Hammerlin. The Ocean Breeze was edited by Art Abrahamson and the faculty advisor was Miss Gwin. QUINAU !LT ANY were the problems that the Quinault staff faced this year. At the beginning of the year it was doubtful whether there would be a yearbook, but with the backing of the students and the hopes and prayers of the staff, production began. Ernest Ingram, photographic editor, began taking pictures of clubs, teachers, classes, and groups. Jane Hill, the managing editor, planned the dummy, arranging the placing of the pictures and trimming and mounting them for the engravers. Rita Rajcich, Jeannette Hawkinson, Aune Wirta, Willoma Erickson, Bernard Thunem, Betty Prather, Florence Hayvaz, and Astrid Anderson helped in mounting these pictures. Florence Hayvaz, write-up editor, took charge of planning, assigning, and editing the write-ups for the Quinault. Aune Wirta, Rita Rajcich, Jeannette Hawkinson, Celeste Purcell, Maribeth MacMillan, Doreene Murphy, Dorothy Gudger, Florence Anthonson, Patt Wilkinson, Art Abrahamson, Bernard Thunem, Jean Ramsay, Frances Wilson, Jerry Norling, Gordon Peterson, Pete Puljan, and Ernest Ingram all worked cn the write-ups. Georgia Mercier organized the servicemen's page. The cover was designed by the art editor, Richard Landberg. He also drew the numerous military sketches throughout this book. The senior editors were Joan Franciscovich and Dorothy Eldart. They arranged the senior panels and were in charge of the senior pictures and the senior section. Pat Johnson was the typist. Gilbert Cleasby took some of the pictures for the snap shot pages. Marjorie West helped with the lettering. The advertising manager was Bob Sims. The advertising layout was planned by Ruby Louthan. Advertising was sold by Aune Wirta, June Hammerlin, Jean Laaksonen, Maribeth McMillan, Margaret Jones, Jeannette Hawkinson, Velma White, Jane Hill, Lorraine Glover, Rita Rajcich, Helene Prehm, and Beverley Keegan. A great deal of thanks and gratitude go to Miss Lois Gwin, the faculty advisor, who has given so much time and help to the entire Quinault staff. Marie Rerello. Barbara Herman(, Celeste Purcell. Norma Jean Seely. SONG QUEENS HIS year the Weatherwax student body was led in their songs by four dashing song queens. These enthusiastic leaders were Celeste Purcell, Norma Seely, Barbara Hermans, and Marie Revello. Whenever the band started to play, these girls came dashing out to lead us in our school songs. They had worked out many routines with intricate steps. Their pep and vim really boosted the enthusiasm of all the student body and their cheerful smiles and winning ways were appreciated by all. 1 he song queens' costumes this year consisted of royal blue flared skirts lined with gold satin. The)’ wore gold V-necked sweaters with a large A” on the front. Each had her name monogrammed on the sleeve of her sweater. During the rainy season, the girls donned yellow bobcat slickers. 1 he girls introduced many new songs, some of which were composed by members of our own senior class. Ihe two that really gained tame with the students were The Go Song and The Fight Song. Our song queens spent many long hours of hard work and practice in order that we might have an enthusiastic student body. They were always ready, rain or shine, to give their all. The)’ were on the sidelines of all the basketball and football games trying to cheer our team on to victory. If possible, they attended the out ot town games, but at times it was very difficult because of gas rationing and tire rationing, beyond our control. The ability of these girls was admired by many. Students from out of town remarked that they were the best ever seen. They seemed to have so much pep and such different routines that they were really outstanding. They adopted a new practice this year of going around to wish each of the boys on the team luck and to let them know that our school was wholeheartedly behind them. They created a friendly relation between other schools and ours by inviting the song queens of these rival schools to lead our student body in a song. In this small way, they expressed a feeling of hospitality. There were quite a few pep rallies down town this year and our song queens were always out in front. The band would stop at about every corner, so that the)- could jump out of the car, lead a couple of songs, and then get ready to go down to the next block and lead the excited crowd in a few more school songs. This year the song queens, with the help of the yell staff, presented many assemblies to inspire pep tor the games. They were v ery original and aroused the spirit of each student to a very high degree. mr. Elmer Pellegrini, Johnny Eliopoulos, Tom Redifer YELL STAFF r— 0 FNTHUSIASM in the bleachers played a major part in Aberdeen athletic victories this ( Jdt year, and these three boys, Elmer Pellegrini, John Eliopoulos, and Tom Redifer, were responsible for it. The yell staff was faced with a dilemma during the football season when yell king John Eliopoulos found it impossible to play quarterback for Coach Fred Timm s eleven and lead yells at the same time. After a debate in a meeting of the Senate, it was decided that he could continue in both activities. Johnny was able still to do his part in raising pep, however, for he performed at all assemblies. Then with the football season over, the staff met another similar problem when yell duke Tom Redifer foresook his cheer leading duties to perform on the maple court for the undefeated B squad during the basketball season. His case was handled the same way as was that of Eliopoulos, thus permitting him to maintain his position on the yell staff. Probably the biggest highlights of the year for the yell staff were the gala Thanksgiving festivities. Prior to the big Thanksgiving football classic, they played an important role in the annual shuttle broadcast with Hoquiam over K.XRO. leading Aberdeen yells in competition with Hoquiam. Taking up the challenge, members of the yell staff engaged in their yearly bit of horse play with the Hoquiam cheer leaders, the staff of the winning school in the Aberdeen-Hoquiam battle being treated to a leisurely trip home astride a bouncing wheelbarrow. The unkind hand of fate intervened to give the Grizzlies a narrow' 6-0 victory and Pellegrini, Eliopoulos, and Redifer a fine workout. Meeting the day after the game they really got the job over with quickly, setting a record for the inter-city trek. In addition to appearing at all home athletic contests these boys made several trips out of town with the teams at their own expense, organizing the pep w'hich is so much appreciated by the players out on the field or court. Decked out in their flashy uniforms they always made a fine appearance. Their 'working clothes’ wfere a navy blue sweater with gold insignia and navy blue pants with a gold stripe dow n each leg. The staff had the usual variety of yells, with the good old standby Vevo, Vivo,' Ra-Cha, and A-B-E-R-D-E-E-N, coming in for a large percentage of the cheers. However, the lads really went to town on their jitterbug version of Suzy-Q. w'hich w'as very popular at all times. Go Back to the Woods” was another favorite. Taking a glance at prospects for next year's yell staff, it w'ould appear to be a bright picture. Yell King Johnny Eliopoulos and Dukes Tom Redifer and Elmer Pellegrini will still be in school. STUDYING HARD’ ALMA MATER A4 a K LUNCH HOUR OVER. NOT REALLY! FOOTBALL Coach Timm s I I NCLE Sam got first choice—then new mentor Fred Timm '—-- J| and his assistant coach, Dan Shovlin, took what was left and went to work on the tough 1943 football schedule. After running over a hapless Valley team and losing a very hard fought battle to a strong Chehalis team, the Bobcats faced the strong Southwest Washington League. Having been outscored by the Vancouver team, the Bobcats met the Kelso Highlanders. Although the two teams fought on even terms for the first half, the Kelsonens came back in the second half to score three touchdowns over the tiring 'Cats. The Bobcat eleven, however, determined that they would show' the town that they were capable of giving out a little of the abuse that they had been receiving. This fighting band w'ent to Centralia and held the Tigers to a 0-0 tie. The next game the ’Cats trekked to Longview and although they lost, they did themselves proud by holding the highly touted Lumberjacks scoreless for three periods. On Armistice Day the League Champion Olympia Bears invaded the Aberdeen camp for a light practice session—at least that's w’hat the Bears thought. The final score was Aberdeen 2 and Olympia 0. Aberdeen then faced its final encounter, the Annual Thanksgiving Day game w'ith Hoquiam. Lady Luck abandoned the 'Cats on this game, however, and before the Aberdeen eleven could recover from a first quarter touchdown by the Grizzlies, the game w'as over and the two teams marched off the field congratulating each other. Seniors Dan Mannion, Don Haw'kins, Jerry Martin, Gordon Peterson, Tom Berglund, Bob Harris, Sam Brasfield, Don Olson, George Keaton, Bill Hall, Wally Morgan, and John Lindberg closed their high school gridiron careers. The Bobcats this year were led by Captain Gordon Peterson and Co-Captain Jerry Martin. BrasjielJ, Pearsall. Stein. Bower. BerglunJ. Sturm. Eaton. Sims. Hopkins, Hankins. Markham. Rorella. Basich.

Coach Shovlin BASKETBALL --II Bobcats started the 1943-44 basketball season with only v__• k | two lettermen back. Coach Dan Shovlin had to build the nucleus of the team mainly from boys up from last year's B squad. With Coach Dan Shovlin’s first class coaching, and with hard work the team rounded out into a fairly good five. The Bobcats opened the season against Shelton and won easily. They then went on to take four straight games, including a win over Hoquiam. The Hoquiam game was an outstanding win for Aberdeen, because the team was behind in the early stages of the game, but with their fight and confidence in themselves, they never let down their drive. Aberdeen's only defeat in the first half of the league was by the conference champion, the Olympia Bears. This game was one of the fastest played. The Bobcats picked up right where they left off with an impressive victory over Shelton. The 'Cats were in for a surprise when they encountered Montesano on the latter’s floor. Aberdeen went to Monte with all the confidence in the world, only to be out fought and outshot by a sensationally improved five. The 'Cats' next game was against an improved Hoquiam team on the latter's court. The game started immediately to take shape into being a tough battle, and it was nip and tuck until about three minutes before the game ended when Hoquiam dropped in two quick baskets to give them victory. The next victim on the Aberdeen list was the Olympia Bears. Aberdeen’s fighting Bobcats managed to barely eke out a 22-18 victory. This game will go down as one of the best played, hardest fought, and roughest games ever seen at the Miller Natatorium. The Aberdeen B” squad emerged with the B” squad championship composed of all the B squads in the league. They went through with an unblemished record of twelve wins and no losses. The following boys composed the B” squad: Basich, Snider, Nesbit, Linnenkohl, Hansen, Redifer, Gerhardt, Stevens, Mihovilich, and Johnson. Harris. Fraser. Bouer. Anderson. Gigstad, Kaiyala.

SWIMMING ERMEN representing Aberdeen in swimming competition for the season of 1944 had an old and a new coach to give them pointers. The newcomer was Owen Kinnaman, while John Bus’ Fairbairn was back for another season. The swimming team opened their season by dropping a close 38 to 28 decision to the Lincoln Abes of Tacoma. Two weeks later the ’Cats journeyed to the City of Destiny, where they opposed the Stadium Tigers in an afternoon match and the Lincoln team the following morning. Stadium overwhelmed the Bobcats 43 to 23, whereupon Lincoln turned upon the visitors, sinking them by a 49 to 17 score. Stadium later repaid Aberdeen's visit, coming here and winning once more. The highlight of the year was the big state meet. Aberdeen took a full team to the tournament, competing against Lincoln and Stadium of Tacoma, Everett, and Bremerton. Everett took first place, followed by Stadium, Lincoln, Aberdeen, and Bremerton in that order. Russ Jones was named captain of the squad. Letterman Edgar Anderson was the most consistent of Aberdeen point getters. BASEBALL Although only a few lettermen were on hand to welcome Coach Fred Timm at the initial baseball practice, there were a number turning out for the first time who showed promise. Heading the list of returning lettermen were Bob Harris, Bob Sims, and Pete Puljan. Outfielders Van Eaton and John Lindberg were among others back from last year's championship nine. Coach Timm, in his first year in Aberdeen, formerly guided the fortunes of the Centralia team. Hampered by bad weather, the squad of twenty-six was forced to work out indoors in the Miller gym for the first week or so. While the outfield positions were not yet certain, Timm had a regular infield combination pretty well mapped by that time. This included Bob Sims as catcher, Bob Harris at first, Don Olson at the keystone sack, Eddie Kaiyala as short-stop, and Dan Mannion on third base. However, the Bobcat pitching situation was not so well settled for Puljan was the sole player on tap with previous hurling experience. Jim Pearsall, Jim Beaman, and Chuck Anderson were being tried out as chuck-ers to supplement the mound staff. First Row—Lee Hoff, Dwight Hillier, Bob Manley, Neil Rowland, Fred Westrom, Ray Cowell, Ordell Ellef-son, Harold Ward, Wallace McClymont. Second Row—Ernie Ingram, Dick Bowen, jack Haydon, Stan Laaksonen, Doreene Murphy, Jo Ann Bunn, Laura Luark, Mr. Kinnaman. II FILE TEAM A T was the problem of no ammunition because of the war that faced the rifle '— ]| team this year. Shells were sent for early last fall but they did not arrive until late in the spring. Consequently, the only inter-school match that was scheduled this year was the annual one with Upper Darby High School, which is in the East. Due to the difficulty of getting matches with other schools, attempts were made to shoot matches with the Red Cross Motor Corps, the United States Coast Guard, and the Aberdeen Police Department. The team this year was somewhat handicapped by the fact that there was only one of last year’s lettermen back, and that most of its other members had had very little previous shooting experience. At the beginning of the year officers of the Rifle Club were elected as follows: President, Ernest Ingram; vice president, Fred Westrom; secretary, Laura Luark; treasurer, Harold Ward; and manager, Wallace McClymont. The Rifle Club was very fortunate in having as its advisors this year Miss Rogers of the junior high school and Mr. Kinnaman of the senior high. TRACK With turnouts hampered by adverse weather conditions, the Bobcat track squad at last began to accumulate the power that has marked the Blue and Gold squads in previous years. The squad was fortunate in having as its new mentor this year A1 Bivens, who is an experienced runner himself, setting a college record for the 440. This year there were but two returning lettermen. They were Deane Hopkins, a hurdler and high jumper, and Leo Fitzpatrick, who ran the hurdles and pole vaults. Sprint men this year included Jack Burtch and Rich Hautala; 440, Don Bower, Milton Gust, and Gerald Baulig; 880, Don Estes, Gene Stanley, Glen Stanley, and Gilbert Dutro; mile, Don Estabrook, John Blaine, Fred Cleveland, and Don Wilde. Standouts in the weight division were Deane Hopkins, Tom Berglund, Ernie Linnenkohl, and George Keaton. Taking to the air on a bamboo pole were Harley Hansen and Leo Fitzpatrick. Hurdlers for this season were Deane Hopkins, Leo Fitzpatrick, and Gene Snider. Both Jack Burtch and Harley Hansen showed great promise in the high jump and the broad jump, as did Rich Hautala and Deane Hopkins in the broad jump.

SENIOR PILAY 'M Charley's aunt from Brazil, where the nuts come from, was one of the many lines that sent a full house into peals of laughter as they witnessed the senior play, Charley's Aunt. The plot centers around two young Oxford undergraduates, Jack Chesney and Charley Wykeham, who are in love with Kitty Verdun and Amy Spettigue. Jack and Charley invite the girls to a luncheon party given for Charley's aunt, Donna Lucia d’AIvadorez, a millionaire, who is expected to arrive by the next train. The real reason, however, for the boys asking Kitty and Amy is that they want to propose to them. At the last minute they learn that Charley’s aunt can't come, so they force their friend, Lord Fan-court Babberly, to dress as a woman and take the place of Donna Lucia d’AIvadorez. Later on in the afternoon Charley’s aunt does arrive with her adopted niece, Ela Delahay. However, Donna Lucia does not give her real name, but gives the one of Mrs. Beverley-Smythe. After much hilarious comedy the play is brought to a conclusion when Lord Fancourt Babberly reveals himself as he really is, and Mr. Spettigue is shocked to find she” is a man. The production was very ably directed by Miss Wallen with Laurie Nielsen as student director; Pat Shepherd and Joan Gilbreath, property managers; Anne Brachvogel, publicity; Miss Tiffin, costumes; and the stage crew assisting. The cast was as follows: Lord Fancourt Babberly, Ed McKinlay; Jack Chesney, Ernest Ingram; Kitty Verdun, Libby Routt; Charley Wykeham, Rich Fields; Amy Spettigue, Norma Jean Turnbull; Brassett, Bernard Thunem; Sir Francis Chesney, Edgar Anderson; Donna Lucia d'Alvadorcz, Helen Nelsxm; Mr. Stephen Spettigue, Gordon Jacobson; and Maud, Pat Shepherd. abandoned the last two years, was revived this year and was held on December 10, with a cast of eighty-five. During the past two years the sophomore-junior play had been substituted. Laurie Nielsen wrote the continuity and the song, Will I Ever See You Again? which was sung in the musical. Miss Betty Wallen was in charge of the dramatic direction and Laurie Nielsen acted as assistant director. The Ambassadors,” a student swing orchestra, held much of the spotlight with their music making. The story was built about the stage door canteen theme. One of the hits of the musical was the chorus line of sixteen girls. A jitterbug number was done by Jack Hayes and Elnora Johnson. Pat Johnson, in black face, rendered a piano medley. A pantomime by Judy Welsh left the audience well entertained. These were but a few of the numbers. All the songs, acts, and dances were varied. Elizabeth Anthonson played the part of Kathy Roberts. Ray Lee played the part of Les Brooks. The rest of the cast included Doris Sharp, Gilbert Cleasby, Ruth Finney, Ed McKinlay, Lorraine Glover, Judy Welsh, Rich Coram, Annette Isaacson, Louie Orth, Pat Shepherd, Don Wilde, Elnora Johnson, Jack Hayes, Edgar Anderson, Doug Russell, and John Whalen. Large posters were made this year for the advertising of Hi-Jinx. All the work on the posters was done by Marjorie West and Astrid Anderson. Miss McCain was in charge of painting the backdrop, assisted by Mr. Ross. This year Hi-Jinx was better attended than ever before, every available seat being sold. The uniforms used were provided by the Coast Guard and the Fifty-sixth Coast Artillery. The senate committee in charge was Florence Hayvaz, Doris Hepner, Elizabeth Anthonson, Ed McKinlay, and Johnny Eliopoulos. BAND f Y 1TH the down beat of Tommy Dorsey and the sweet strains of Fred Waring W drifting out into the night of March 22, the band showed that it could not only play with the virtuosos of Carnegie Hall, but also with the leading bands of swing style. With a packed house listening to the selections, interspersed by hot drum, cornet, and trombone solos of Tom Berglund, Bernard Thunem, Danny Mannion, Don Vasbinder, and Edgar Anderson, the evening was declared a huge success by all who attended. The other concerts, while not played to such a packed crowd, were noted for the fine classical music played by the band, and also for the excellent interpretation of the music by Director Kenneth Hjelmervik. While devoting much of its time to the classical and swing style of playing, the band did not neglect school activities, playing for all football games, and rallies, of which the highlight of the year was the annual show, put on by the Aberdeen and Hoquiam bands and drill teams. The theme for this year was of a patriotic nature, with the bands and drill teams spelling out Buy Bonds,” with various other formations in different motifs. Playing for all home basketball games, the band also added moral support, both to the team and spectators, with stirring marches and school songs, with a dash of Boogie Woogie for good measure. At the half time swing music was the most favored type of entertainment. The band played a musical program for Hi-Jinx, the annual high school musical show. The opening night of the Teen-Age Canteen found the high school band furnishing the music for the inauguration services. The members of the band for this year were Bill Anderson, Edgar Anderson, Raphael Anderson, Ned Baker, Jim Bates, Walter Berg, John Blaine, Don Burr, Bob Cowell, Don Estes, David Halverson, Francis Linklater, Bob Manley, Loran Merrier, Calvin Morrill, James Shaw, Kenneth Stevens, Bernard Thunem, Burt Stack, John Tesia, Eugene Vannier, Ernest Ingram, Fred Preston, John Henderson, Jim Colby, Tommy fisher, Roger Bailer, Bradford Barnes, John Druzianich, Delmar Evanson, Martin Mom, Bill Nieradzik, Kenneth Graham, Richard Hall, Michael Hobi, Frank Horne, Jim Ingram, C harles Keaton, Bill Linklater. Ronald Olson, Wayne Parpala, John Weber, Leonard Young, Albert Anderson, Waldi Anderson, and Bill Preston. ORCHESTRA x—o V HEN the sound of the singing strings reached the ears of the audience on the V___VV night of March 22, they all thought that the playing of swing, by the orches- tra, could be done as well as the playing of the long haired style of classical music. The pieces on the program that were played for the swing concert were Song of the Bayou, Holiday for Strings,” On the Trail,” Andaiucia, and Sophisticated Lady. The five soloists for the evening were: Marie Rosi, who played a different cadenza in the piece On the Trail ; a trombone solo by Mickey Hobi; a bassoon solo by Ernest Ingram; and a piano solo by Beatrice Roy in the piece On the Trail.” The other solo, by Dolores Marshall, was played in the piece called Sophisticated Lady. The music which was liked best was Holiday for Strings,' which had very difficult passages for the violins to execute. Although the swing concert this year was widely acclaimed, their regular concerts are the kind of music they really excel in. Their first concert was given such brilliant interpretation of the music by Director Kenneth Hjelmervik, with also the very finest of technique and tone given to the music by the players. The orchestra also has played for many school affairs. The senior play was ably helped out with music between acts and during the intermission. The group s repertoire was composed mostly of swing numbers from the previous swing concert. Their best numbers were Song of the Bayou and Sophisticated Lady.” Pan American Day rolled around and the orchestra was ready and waiting. They played for the Pan American assembly Cendolueia and Danza Locumi. The officers this year for the orchestra are: President, Marie Rosi; secretary, Imogene Jester; librarian, Kathryn Trew. The president and secretary have just regular duties, but the librarian is a unique-official. Instead of checking books in and out, the orchestra librarian takes care of all orchestra music, seeing that it is passed out, and at the end of the year, checked in. The roster for the orchestra this year is Betty Cummings, Ernest Ingram, Gertrude Karlela, Marion Lind, Bonnie Lou Lowry, Nola McDuffee, Pat McManemy, Jean Messingale, Joy Moe, Faye Rhodes, Marie Rosi, Beatrice Roy, Imogene Tester, Kathryn Trew, Glenna Waddell, Janice Kretz, Barbara Jordan, Margaret Quien, Dale Christopherson, Mary Ann Clubb, Mary Ellen Davidson, Delores Marshall, Ralph Moe, Margaret Utes, Louie Evelyn, Mary Menees, Jim Bates, Betty Jackson. THIS year's choir is composed entirely of girls because of difficulties which arose ---' I! in the boys' schedules'. I he choir s first performance of the year was at a teachers’ institute meeting. I lie choir sang tor the Eagles Lodge and the Methodist Church at Christmas time. Also during the year, they held performances at the Rotary, Kiwanis, and Elks Club. Perhaps- the biggest event of the year for the girls’ choir was the Swing Concert, the second of its kind, held on March 22, 1944. Fred Waring’s arrangements were sung by the choir with several vocal soloists appearing. They were Fat Shepherd singing There Are Such Things ; Mary Louise Wakefield doing the Erie Canal”; Elizabeth Anthonson singing I Ride An Old Paint”; and Laurie Nielsen singing The Night Is Young. For this year’s Swing Concert the entire choir was attired in formal gowns of various shades in place ot the robes of blue and gold which were worn at most of their performances. Their final concert was held on May 7, 1944. I his year s officers as elected by the girls were Pat Shepherd holding the office of president, and Evelyn Sigurdson, secretary for the year. In addition to giving performances, the choir listened to records and held general discussions in the field of music. Each girl chose a particular phase of music which interested her and gave talks and demonstrations on it. At the choir s first concert of the year, a variety of songs were presented, the favorite one being On the Steppe by Gutchaninoff. Others which were sung were I Waited for the Lord,” and Evening Prayer” from the opera, Hansel and Gretel.” All in all, this years choir has had a successful and enjoyable season. The choir is directed by Mr. Hjelmervik and consists of Elizabeth Anthonson, Anne Brachvogel, Virginia Church, Betty Cummings, Peggy Drake, Betty Gregory, Pat Johnson, Margaret Jones, Margaret Lindseth, Barbara Maurer, Edith Millen. Laurie Nielsen, Deena Pellegrini, Mary Elizabeth Routt, Beatrice Roy, Darlene Schuett, Pat Shepherd, Evelyn Sigurdson, Marcella Spere, Joann Swinehart, Norma Jean Turnbull, Mary Louise Wakefield.
