TOP: Mr. Curran, principal. BOTTOM: Mr. Londahl, vice principal. In spite of the changes and upsets to what may have been regarded as traditional, you have been most gracious and cooperative. I am deeply and humbly grateful. My only hope is that we may go forward toward greater educational opportunities for all. We can be proud of our accomplishments this year. The statement of policy in regard to membership in school organizations by the senate is ample evidence of your growth and understanding in democratic concepts. The sportsmanship campaign has brought credit and values in innumerable ways not only to the school but to the community in which we live. The outcomes to us all are infinitely of greater value than the trophy which, after all, is but a symbol of the real doing, thinking, cooperating, and influencing. These we have achieved and they can never be taken from us. Only by our own laxness may we lose them. We would be remiss were we not to call to mind some of the problems which do and will confront us and to which we must bend our efforts toward a solution. Some of these are: devising ways and means of maintaining our present activities on a seriously curtailed budget; improvement of the auto parking and traffic; increased attention to the care of the buildings and grounds; maintainance of a high level of sportsmanship: increased enrollment with shrinkage of space, and the attendant problems of building, traffic, and morale. For a time we may find ourselves handicapped for space and facilities, but with the brand of cooperation and understanding demonstrated this year I am sure we can overcome this with no loss of educational values and activities. Good luck to the class of ’56! lien O. Curran SCHOOL BOARD—Seated: Mr. Karshner, Mr. Weatherwax, Mr. Spoon, Mr. Hill. Standing: Mr. Kramer, superintendent of schools; Mr. Turk, secretary of board; Mr. Van Syckle. 7

MASON BYIES BILL MAYNARD President Vice President THE A. H. S. SENATE is the student governing body of Weatherwax High School. Composed of eight elected senators from each class, representatives from all major school clubs, and the Board of Control, this group discusses issues of general interest and represents the remainder of the students by presenting their ideas and proposals. One of the first projects undertaken by the Senate was that of solving the problem of hall traffic. With the existing crowded conditions students found it difficult to be punctual. A committee was appointed to study the problem and, after much discussion, one-way traffic was introduced to Weatherwax. The need for a pay telephone was confirmed by a questionnaire, and a Senate committee was CAROL BODEY JUDY GRAHAM Secretory Treasurer appointed to obtain one. However, no telephone was installed as a new telephone system is to be installed next year. A study of noontime activities was made by another committee and recommendations were made for an organized program next year. A Board of Control committee made plans for a student lounge to take the place of the vocational units soon to be vacated. This lounge would be open to all high school students and would be the center for many student activities. The Senate topped off the year with a picnic at Dexter’s-by-the-Sea on April 29. Lucille Dar-gan was in charge of arrangements and even the weather cooperated in making the picnic a big success. 1st row: Roberta Dargan, Barbara Erickson, Carol Sue Erickson, Mary Jane Kennedy, JoAnn Bebich, Donna Ellila. 2nd row: Carolyn Hamilton, Ruth Robinson, Carol Bodey, Marilyn Zawislak, Jeanette Graham, Judy Graham, Gail Sollie Sue Pettit. 3rd row: Karla Anderson, Fritz Fovargue, Ron Makos, Gordon Scure, Roger Donahoe, Gary Chase, Bob Yearout, Charles Byles, Eddie Carlson, Lucille Dargan, Yvonne Anderson. 4th row: Nick Gupton, Jerry Snider, Craig Wellington, Jerry Johnson, Bill Maynard, LeRoy Bodnar, Paul Carlson, Neil Cams, Don Abrahamson, Mason Byles. 6
