Laughing indian braves strolled but moons ago as we have 'neath green drenched firs in Hiawatha, listened with responsive minds and hearts to wise words of the elders of their tribe, played on con- tested fields and brought the worthy Gold and Blue victoriously homeward. ln West Seattle, amid the cleanness of their sports, the deepness of their thought and the loving comradeship of their fellow tribesmen, they learned peace before they left our lodge upon guests of their own. Knowing peace, it was they who took up weapons and joined the throng to fight against the tyranny that shadowed the sun. As we today dedicate this book of pleasant memories, we dedicate ourselves to our Gold Star braves who now hunt in the Great Spirits lands and to the fulfill- ment, creation and protection of that peace for which they gave their all. il?

Each moon when the leaves turn yel- low and moon of the first warm wind , saw those oi bewildered countenance step into the light of the council tire while, with knowledge in their eyes, others withdrew. And so, a tepee grew into a lodge while braves developed into warriors. The forest around the lodge looks dit- ierent now, faces oi chieitains and their sons have passed from range. Yet, no power has beset the lofty purpose, ideals or pride which conceived the Spirit ot West Seattle. Friendly, proud and ready as were their lndian iorebearers, stands our tribe as the sun casts its rays upon l945. it 5 Let's get this war over with as soon as possible. We've got a job to do but we want to get back home as soon as we can. ln those two guotations, we catch the feeling of G. l. loe. l-le has dedi- cated himself to PEACE. He is ready to surrender his personal liberty and his life, if needed, to secure peace. loe has done for us a lot more than we shall ever realize. At the least, we need to ask the guestion, What can we do to make the proper home- coming for foe? Rather pitiful, isn't it, to think of G. l. loe dying or being maimed, in order that Bill or Mary, here at home, may flunk courses, skip classes, or waste opportunity? For- tunately, most of us here in West 6 Seattle High realize that our first obligation to G. l. Ioe is to do our best on the school job. We know also that loe isn't giving up comfort and life for us as individuals. l-le's mak- ing his sacrifice for society-for democratic society. ln repayment, we must prepare our minds to pre- serve and improve that same demo- cratic society. The trouble is that too often we put that responsibility off on some- one else. ln a vague way, we know we have an obligation, but we think that it won't matter too much if we fall down on the job. Someone else will meet the need. And there is a tremendous mistake. No one can pay your debt to G. l. Ioe-except YGU. As you read these words, some- thing must happen in your thinking or else our effort is lost. Take an honest look at yourself. See what you are capable of doing. Make yourself do more than your share. Make many sacrifices for the sake of the American way of life. Are your grades the best you can make them? Are you fair and honest? lf everyone of us will delicate himself Bi to the task of making ,W ' ,Q the most of himself, gl we shall be repay- ing our debt to G. l. l oe and we shall be 3141? laying the finest 'EW foundations for the lf?-'Q qv' days of peace. What TQ, l are you doing about A I the matter? R -REED r'ULroN. 4 if l 1 t For uncounted generations, in fields and forests and factories, in mines and on the sea, our common ancestors have toiled to bring to pass the high scale of living it is our present fortune to enjoy. ln endless hours of labor, under frightful stresses of discomfort and disease, dirt and weariness, these men and women built the institu- tions and won the freedoms that are our present evidences of civilization. lt has remained for this generation to reap the finest fruit of such sacri- fices in a freedom and control of the forces of nature never before avail- able to mankind. Now our generation finds that the work of its forebears didn't go far enough, that all that was won may yet be lost because of lack of accord and sympathy and cooperation among those who share the gains. ln l945 it is evident that much work and sacrifice is called for to offset the threat to progress involved in World War ll. That still more will be required before freedom from want and fear, freedom of speech t and religion be- come the common act. West Seattle l-ligh School is making its contri- bution in the ages- old warfare. ln the present struggle more than l6UU of h e r s o n s a n d daughters are car- rying on the tradi- tion of, Blood and 5 I ,M I 1 f 1 H., ,lull L l . .N lf ' 4 Y :ink 'X , A sweat and tears and strife, price- less ferments in the wine of life. Forty and more have sacrificed the happy years in store for them that the rest of us might have a fuller measure of the freedom and joy which they forego. To make freedom of worship, free- dom to express ideas, freedom from want and fear, the lot of all people everywhere, calls for toleration and enlightenment it will take a long struggle to bring about. West Seattleites have done a great deal. West Seattleites are doing much. West Seattleites have reason and capacity for doing a great deal more to bring on a hap- pier day for all mankind. -A. LYLE KAYE 7 As the purple shadows of twilight pass over the land of the quiet waters, and young Indians with the dew of high school education still upon their untarnished brows leave the friendly lodge of West Seattle to break new trails in the unknown forests ahead, they arm themselves, not with the flesh searing arrow of their fore- bearers, but with strong minds instead. F or, as if willed by the gods, education and the fearless men and women of our tribe who have brought us from the depths of ignorance into the sunshine of enlighten- ment have championed our ultimate goal -peace. Here, amid the subtle strength of their guidance, we've learned the ways of our fellow braves and respect for the achieve- ments of other tribesmen, as the hands of our clan have helped mold our minds, characters and bodies that we may have the tools with which to become artisans of peace. 'ir Jfwllflf Reviewing ten moons ot teaching and learning on the West Seattle Res- ervation, Wise men ot our tribe and their subjects can sit by smoking council tires to speak ot another round oi tasks Well done. Braves strove to keep mind and body strong and sharp under skilled hands in the Health and Physical Education clans, While Chiefs ot the Sci- ences taught the ways oi the animals in the forests, the sun, Wind, and 93 basic elements While warriors learned the tongue and culture ot their brothers under the skin from the Medicine Men of Foreign Languages.

So they might someday bring home the bacon, many maidens and warriors ventured to the Commercial Reservation, Where, amid typewriters, bookkeeping records andicommercial law books, they were introduced to that magnanimous land beyond-the business World.

McDonald in Q Swift Bb D1 VPdt Suns ago, this ter- ritory lay timbered, quiet and serene, in- habited only by scat- tered tribes of native lndians living in their peaceful, friendly en- vironment. With the passing of many snows and winds, a new people came in wagon and on horse- back to cut away the virgin forests, build- ing in their stead, a city of stone and steel. Yet, as when a tepee was the only shelter, the same spirit hovers in the hearts of men and women of today. That spirit depicting friendliness, coopera- tion and good will was enshrined in a certain tepee on the West Seattle reserva- tion-the Girls' Club Apartment, the lodge where all of the school activities of the more than 788 maidens of West Se- attle were culmi- nated. Under the guid- ance of their advisor, Miss Chilberg, the maidens' affairs were conducted by their president, Mary Kin- zelq vice president, tfirst five moons? Mar- ilyn Peterseng vice president Clast five moons?, Barbara Daley record- ing secretary, Marilyn McDonaldg corresponding secretary, Dorothy Swiftg treasurer, Moira Yadon. Dorothy Swift was chief of the Administration Department. This clan kept the club running smoothly. Writing letters to maidens out of school because of illness, ,greeting newcomers to the reservation, and maintaining the Lost and Found were but a few of the jobs done by the Community Service Department led by Galina Kay, with Marilyn McDonald as officer-sponsor. Tribal festivals were supervised by the Entertainment Department under the hand of Shirley Good Cfirst semester?, Yvonne Cleverly tsecond semester? Moira Yadon was the officer-sponsor.

Boys' Club includes in its membership any brave who lays down wampum for an Activity Stamp book, some 620 war- riors, and for the past ten moons has exist- ! ed under the guid- , ance of Big Chief Pop l-lannaford, dfo rating for its presi- dent, Mike Mohun- drop Bob Clithero for vice-presidentg and Howard Bellows as secretary-treasurer. As in the sun of '44, Boys' Club tasks were carried out in true lndian fash- ion by various committees, organ- ized to get things done in an effi- cient way, while braves grew mighty under the stimulus of giving friendly, constructive service. Perhaps the most important com- mittee of these would be termed the Personal Achievement Committee, which had the vital but difficult duty of developing leadership and direc- tive gualities within the braves, ulti- mately inducing tribesmen to get into school activities for experience in leadership. Because lndians are known from the Cascades to the Olympics as friendly, it was quite natural that braves organize a Friendship Com- l4 OFFICERS Mike Mohun President Bob C1 thero Vice President H ward Bell ws S .-T . mittee. which not only kept up cor- respondence with lndians who were out of school because of illness, but made any new members of the tribe feel at home on the range by intro- ducing them to school life at West Seattle. Furthermore, the Boys' Club estab- lished a minute-man organization, the School Service Committee, that hourly was on call to perform the miraculous emergency services which creep up, even on an lndian reservation. West Seattle braves are deeply conscious of the morale of their war- rior brothers in uniform and had at least one sure way of keeping it tip- top. The Letters to Servicemen Com- mittee was originated so that stu- dents in roll rooms could cooperate with the Boys' Club in sending let- ters from home to former school mates in service. Each roll was allotted the names and addresses of certain warriors in service, then braves and maidens c o l l e c t e d appropriate newspaper clippings and wrote letters. Thus, while the earth was - e afire with war, and peoples were thrown off balance mentally as well as physi- cally, the West Seattle braves lived through days of worry over studies, draft classifica- tions and jobs, without risking - scars.

To achieve a democratic school government, a greater cooperation between students and faculty, a closer tie between the pupil and his school, and to provide a medium through which the student is trained to assure his civic responsibilities in our republic . . . Thus, the purpose of West Seat- tle's newly formulated student gov- ernment was established by Chief Student Body president Dick Soli- bakke and other lndians advocating student government in originating the constitution that was adopted by the lndians last lanuary. As constitutionally provided, inter- school student activities were co- ordinated by twin tepees-the Stu- dent Council, with a membership of all roll presidents and the Student Cabinet. The former passed on all student legislation while the latter, consisting of representatives from lo the Boys' and Girls' Clubs, the tour classes, three executive-appointed committee heads, the student body president and vice president, with Mr. I-lannaford as faculty advisor, culminated all plans for student activities. Each class undertook a special phase of the Schools at War pro- gramg the seniors administered Con- servationg the juniors, War Savingsg the sophomores, Salvageg the fresh- men, Salvage of Waste Fats. Cn each Thursday afternoon, the Cabinet held a session at which activities and problems relating to the student body were analyzed and acted upon. All new legislation was referred to the Research Committee for investigation and recommenda- tion. Charters were granted to school organizations by the Charter Com- mittee, while the Assembly Commit- tee handled student assemblies. 1 I 1 e E ag E i ! ' E 1 .

Since tepee days, maidens and braves have joined the tribes oi West Seattle to drink from the spring ot knowledge and atiluent opportunities which flow here. Sun upon sun, papooses enter the lodge, novices at the art ot living, ignorant and void oi poise, seli confidence and thoughttulness only to make their depar- tures iour suns later with assurance and culture in their strides. Some oi that they acquire from books and the lore oi the wise ones, much oi it they harvest from know- ing, working and sporting with fellow tribesmen. With their older brothers at war, tribes- men have tound the ties binding them together pulled more tautly with the de- mands oi the war beast thrust upon them. The tasks and ceremonies they've per- formed together will weave pleasant mem- ories ior tribesmen to look back upon long after the sun has gone to sleep behind the purple mountains to the west. ik Ju! 79415 OFFICERS Neil Oqden President Bill O'Brien Vice Pres d Margaret D Secretary Roger Mc Nutt Treasurer Mr. Kimball Counselor Mr. Mackey Sponsor When the braves and maidens of the class of l945 dis- appear behind the last bend on the path of high school educa- tion, with their sheep- skins tucked firmly under their arms, their feet will carry them on to new hunting grounds, while their minds and heartsiwill echo pleasant mem- ories, like magnets pulling them back to the old reservation. As papooses, they stepped upon that path only a few moons before war clouds broke over America. But under the guidance of their class counselor and sponsor, Mr. Warren Mackey, they elected lim Burroughs, presi- dentg john Capis, vice presidentg Cor- rine lohnston, secre- tary, and Bobert johnson, treasurer. Further up the path, as sophomores, the tribe joined their brothers on the West Seattle range in con- verting the school onto a wartime status through the Victory Corps, hailing as their chiefs, presi- dent, Tom Boyd, vice president, Pricilla Fox, secretary, Lila Saarig and treasurer, Lyle lVlcAlphin. The path grew more precipitousg by the time they reached the junior level, some braves had already girded themselves for battle beyond the great waters to the West, while those yet in the lodges of their fathers labored for victory by co- ordinating the sales -of war bonds and stamps to other lndians on the range. Leading tribesmen were Bay jensen, presidentg Ed Bray, vice presidentg Mary Flack, secretary, Leroy Layton, treasurer. With the end of the trail in sight, Neil Ogden was elected presidentp Bill 0'Brien, vice presidenty Mar- garet Dear, secretaryy and Boger lVlcNutt, treasurer. Chief Kimball re- turned from the Navy to take over as counselor, and with braves jump- ing astride their battle horses at each new dawn, the '45 tribe took conservation of essential materials as their contribution to winning the war in which they'd lived for the past four suns. Books were collected at the lodge for servicemen's reac- ing, while transportation and ac.- hesive tape were on the conserva- tion list. So, gather- 5 ing up their B l u e a n d White colors, red camelias, and motto, EXperienta Optime Docet, the tribe of l945 leaves old West Seattle reservation to ,, begin their ' M mysterious trek up the trail of the future.

As sophomores, the tribe of '46 Was active in the Victory Corps, taking time out from their program of sal- vaging fats, Waste paper, tin cans and books for the war effort to vote Dick Solibakke in as presi- dent, Don Qlsen as vice president, and Ruth Arneson for sec- retary-treasurer. With Frank Young as 'chief of their sal- vaging campaigns, the tribe decided to collect books for serv- icemen, boosting in- terest in the drive by staging a tribal War, vying the north side of the lodge against the south side While using books for ammunition. As tepee strategists predicted, loyal Yankees and Confeder- ates fired hundreds of books at each other, salvaging reading mate- rial for thousands of servicemen's lonely hours. ln the spring, the sophomores sponsored a P.-T.A. dance at Hia- watha Fieldhouse, honoring maiden leanne Osterman as head prin- cess. Time sneaked by on moccasined feet as the '46 Warriors stepped into their junior year, electing Harwood Woody lepson, presidentg Bud Dale, vice presidentp and Beverly Lockhart, secretary-treasurer. Under the chairmanship of maid- en lane Pacher, the sale of war bonds and stamps was sponsored by the juniors. Through her leader- ship, and that of her assistant, lessie Allen, the West Seattle Reservation ranked as one of the highest in War savings among Seattle high schools. ln commemoration of Pearl Harbor, a gigantic war bond sale netting Sl4,l5O was staged by the lndians on December --1- 7, led by Chief Pacherf' - West Seattle will see the tribal blue and White banner of the tribe of W '46 around for another sun and will see and feel the Warriors keep- ing their motto Semper Prog- redi active and alive.

The first two suns of life at West Seattle are largely taken up in scouting about the reservation to learn the tribal customs. Then too, most underclassmen are tied se- curely to their studies, rarely break- ing away to join in extra-curricular ceremonies. However, while feeling their ways about in the red man's land, the '47 tribe elected Wally Bostick, presi- dent, Barbara Ormbreck, vice presi- dentg and loan Anderson, secretary- treasurer. With Big Chief Anderson and Princess Babcock as sponsor and counselor respectively, the warriors of '47 assisted their older brothers, the sophomores, with their salvage detail by organizing and collecting waste fats and tin. When summer had filtered from the air and the 9 braves and maids of '47 re- turned to the A reservation last fall, they elected Bob Benson, presi- denty Boger Young, vice president, and Dorothy Deer- ing, secretary and keeper of the wampum. - .-....i. 1....i 1 -.-, , ??' f E. S Q., E 'Z s .W 36 Sophomores had just begun to get their lndian legs and begun to dis- tinguish themselves, Wally Bostick proved himself a number one lndian on the tennis team, while Bob Wicknick, Bud Shepard and Chuck Thompson made out- standing records in basketball as did Brad Cleverly, Dick Mintier, Dick Tweton and lohn Adams in football. Under the Salvage Division of the Stu- dent Cabinet, the tribe of '47 threw themselves into col- lecting waste mate- rials which could go to war, thus helping their warrior brothers on the battle fronts. ln monthly, bi- monthly and weekly drives and collec- tions, tons of scrap paper, tin cans and waste fats were col- lected by Indians under the director- ship of Boger Young, general chairman of salvage.

Appropriately, the rugged bucks did ride upon the backs of their Wobbly mules from the damp hollows of the Gulch. Dripping seaweed from their ears, members of the Alki lnc. tribe did migrate to the hills to learn the ways of the white men while their favorite enemies, the Faunt- leroy Beachcombers, rode into the reservation on the necks of their pet sea- gulls. With the gentle coaching of their mothers, the natives of Water-Tank Way did put shoes upon their feet for their pilgrimage, even as tribesmen from the heights above 35th did adjust their oxygen masks for decent into the world below. From Wigwams on hills and in the forests of our happy hunting ground, bucks' and maidens congregated to meet in council 'neath the sign of the crossed arrows-denoting friendship.

Iv 'Dwarv- 40 zu! 798 Little papooses, better known as West Seattle's Class of l948, entered the mighty wigwam perched high above the rippling waters of Puget Sound with eager hearts aimed towards making their four years in high school a success. Forgetting they were strictly big time only a year ago in grade school, they settled down to be self- conscious, wide-eyed, forgotten, un- heard of freshmen. Awed at all the freedom and extra curricular activities, they soon adapted themselves to new tribal customs to prepare for more respon- sible sophomore ceremonies. Determined to show their big brothers that they could accept the challenge facing them, Nancy Brad- bury and Marcia McCready were appointed to smoke the peace pipe at the Student Cabinet circle. As the school year progressed, Big Chief Bowe gathered together his tribe to elect medicine men to carry on official tribal business. Eddie lor- genson, a snappy folond brave, was elected first rate cQansman, George Escott, 2nd rate tribesman, and Bar- , bara Crane, , ,i the maiden to take her feath- er pen in hand to record busi- ness and also . take guard of frosh wam- pum. Al t h o u g h this tribe has spent only one s u n o n t h e West Side Bes- ervation, some A ll iv? l l 4 have begun their im- portant trek in pro- moting successful ceremonies. Wally Hobson and Gwen Buhl proved mighty football players on the sports battle- ground. Through active participation on Boys' and Girls' Club com- mittees and by turn- ing all out for stu- dent activities, these little papooses have become familiar with the Blue and Gold ln- dian traditions so that they can some day fill the moccasins of their big brothers. When the yellow and brown leaves begin to fall and the mighty wigwam again unfolds its flaps to gather in her lndian tribe, the class of l948 will be ready to advance one notch further in their high school careers, and will be able to look back upon their first moon on the 'W est Seattle Reservation when they were little unheard of papooses only to say, Well done, we can fill the moccasins of our 'big brothers.

Knowing that braves and maidens needed something more to round out their minds and bodies than curricular work alone, the seeds for inter-school activities were sown early among West Seattleites. Each season, these seeds grow into sturdy plants as they are nurtured with organization and interest by the lndians. Thus, when the time for harvest draws nigh, the braves and maidens of West Seattle pick the fruits of their pleasant labors, stronger and happier for their experiences. it Club Front row: Iohn Swanberg, Tom Scuttio, Bob Clithero, George Monty, lim Dahl, Ted Heistamen.

Northwest forests were the train- ing grounds for lndian milers long before the first heavy thud of white man's boots echoed through branches of the mighty firs. Cf course, these indians of long ago trained for different purposes than do the trackmen of today. Upon guick, silent feet they carried secret messages that could not be transmit- ted by smoke signals. These runners of yesterday trained by jumping hurdles, much like those. of today, but training was for jumping over logs and other barriers in their paths. indians also ran relay racesg this was because the distances over which the messages had to be car- ried were too long for one man to endure. These braves occupied just as important a place in the tribal so- ciety as warriors who went out to battle, for sometimes the lives of whole camps depended on the swift- ness of their feet. The runners of today do not carry so much responsi- bility, but the honor of the tribe rests on these trackmen's shoulders. 46 Members of the first, second and third track teams have banded to- gether in the Spike Shoe Club, a club organized mainly to better relations between trackmen. Since the president Ron johnson had to leave for the Navy in the beginning of track season, lim Sullivan took over his job. Other officers were Ken Ferguson, vice president, and Bill l-looper, secretary. Last year the club sponsored and did part of the work in building a Cinder track in Hiawatha Park. This year's membership has added jump- ing pits to the track. This enables better preparation for coming track meets. This smooth track is a far cry from the narrow forest trails, often overgrown with underbrush, on which ancient indian runners had to make their way. Even though there were no official rules for indian runners to follow, each tribe had its own revered stars who achieved fame and glory by com- pleting dangerous missions, just as the world now revers Gunnar l-laegg and,Gil Dodds. -'MP Front row: Alene Hathaway, Virginia Schindler, Dorothy Iacques, Beverly Sletten, Pat Turner, Mary Wheeler, Roxana Yantis, Miss Phillips.

Even in the days when lndians were the only inhabitants of the Pacific Northwest, make-up was in use. Ct course the nearest thing to modern make-up artists were medi- cine men who personally painted all dancers, in tribal ceremonies Cso as to get the markings just rightp other- wise the gods might be otfendedl. War paint was also usedg this was to frighten enemies more than any- thing else. But the gaudy paint jobs that were on the taces ot the tribes- men who greeted Lewis and Clark were just as carefully applied as those of the most detailed charac- ters made-up by our own Make-up Club in school productions. The brilliant reds and blues used by medicine men ot yesteryear's tribes were enough to challenge even the most vivid imagination ot today's make-up artist, but members ot this reservation's Make-Up Club could probably do just as good a job, given enough time and paints. Much as understudies ot tribal medicine men spent hours studying the markings tor various ceremonies, so the members ot the Make-Up Club spend long hours after school learning the mysteries ot make-up from Miss Phillips, sponsor ot the club. Through practice on each other, they pertect their knowledge, which is put to practical use on the participants in school productions. Even disciples ot medicine men ot long ago would have had a hard time outdoing the Make-Up Club on such characters as The Bishop and Mr. Brooke in the Senior Plav, and Toe, Gilby, and the Maid in the Pow Wow. But then, they had only crude dyes and sticks for brushes. Even talents oi our make- up geniuses might be hampered by such tools. Some ot the members not pictured Cprobably still making-upl are Bev- erly Cristoterson, Marian Platz Arlene Gadd and Mary Lou Mondt who helped in the Senior Play. ln spite ot these slightly degrad- ing comparisons, it is generally agreed that school productions would sutter greatly it these maidens weren't on the job.

Wearers of the round gold seal pins have been the tribe's outstand- ing scholars during their stays on the range. They averaged at least 24 grade points in their sophomore years on the basis of four points for an A grade, three points for a two for a C and one for a ln their junior years, they obtained at least 50 grade points, harvesting 78 or more upon entering their final year of school. Finally, upon earn- ing lO8 grade points, they became permanent members of the Torch Society, the ultimate of ambitious high school students. Each sun, the warriors and maid- ens of the Honor Society select their chieftains. This year Frank Young was elected presidentg Roger Mc- Nutt, vice presidentg and Ruth Arne- son, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Logan as faculty sponsor helped the clan to carry out their high traditions. All activities of this prominent tribe center around the aims of their constitution, which sets down the encouragement of high standards of student scholarship, citizenship, and leadership as primary. ln this vein, members of the society offered 50 community service during the year by ushering at the Senior Play, Pow Wow and Commencement. During the winter months Dr. lacobs of the University of Washing- ton's Department of Anthropology, attended one of the Honor Society's tribal councils at which he discussed racial relations. With enthusiasm running high, the tribesmen echoed Dr. lacob's remarks by launching a campaign of their own against-race prejudice. Society members were given a chance to acguire extra points toward winning their torch pins by writing extensive research papers on racial prejudice. Early in the spring the annual Honor Society Tea was staged. This event, a highlight in the year's activ- ities, provided a social hour at which Honor Society members, their par- erts and teachers met each other on casual terms to discuss and learn more about the society and its aims. Each spring emerges the valedic- torian and salutatorian of the grad- uating class from the Torch Society, another example of the benefits of experiencing membership in the society building today the leaders of tomorrow.

As the white man showed his face, the lndians learned new means of spreading tribal hap- penings to the folk. Today, those means have been culminated in the Chinook, wherein the doings of modern clansmen are recorded. The printed pages emitting from the tepee our ancestors degradingly entitled The Shack, are proof that lndians were influenced by the white man.

Although the Frenchmen in the group were outnumbered seven times by the Spaniards, the club soon became a functioning organ- ization.

Even the wise ones of the coun- cils of the Northwest lndians were using strides to measure length when the first white men journeyed over the great mountains. lt is said that a common practice was to use the fingers for complicated prob- lems, which is probably why one can yet find Cshall we, for reasons of courtesy, sayl some obstinate clansmen, especially females, using the same system. But the white man's methods of computation roused the curiosity of some of our more intelligent ances- tors, who made many' discoveries both mathematical and otherwise Cwhich is probably the reason some of the tribesmen insisted that the white man counted-nine, ten, jack, queen-D. As the white man penetrated fur- ther into the lndian country, marks of civilization in the form of little red school houses were built. When they first attracted the lndians, vague rumors Cyes, they even circulated thenl of addition, subtraction and multiplication intrigued the wise ones in the lndian lodges. So they 62 sent their sons to learn of this white man's magic. A few of these stu- dents went beyond simple adding and dividing into equations and logarithms. These were the ances- tors of the present members of the Math Club. Mathematicians of the reservation banded together the Math Club, which held forth in weekly council in room 2l7. The mysteries that so intrigued the first lndian councilmen are no mystery at all to Gerald Pit- ser, first semester presidentg Chester Whitman, vice president, and lim Cfazaway, secretary. The club's sponsor, Miss Dunn, helped them delve into the intricacies of the slide rule. Since most of the members majored in mathematics, these ses- sions promoted easier studying. New officers elected for the sec- ond semester were Chet Whitman, president 7 lack Linge, vice president 5 and Lewis Wilson, secretary. They also chose to look into the process known as the Hduodecimal system, one using the basis of twelve. By all reports, they upheld their ancestors' record in the study of figures.

Medicine was practically un- known in camps of lndians when white men first came. The nearest approach to a doctor was the med- icine man. l-lis crude ministrations, which scared more sick tribesmen to death than they cured, is probably the reason many of our clansmen still think of the doctor as an un- necessary evil. The medicine man, with his gaudy and horrible-looking mask, carried an herb bag and a rattle made of bones to Ward off the evil spirits, but he counted on the sguaws or maidens of the camp to help admin- ister his prescriptions, This was the nearest the lndian civilization came to a nurse With the white man came his doctor, who tried to combat superstition and induce the lndians to use modern methods in fighting disease. When lndians were forced on res- ervations, one of the services the government or White Father in- sisted they accept Was the Doctor's Tepee. From this beginning evolved the nurse's office on the West Seattle reservation, Wherein local lndians are given free yearly examinations, While their illnesses are recorded on special charts. The nurse has assistants called Nurses Aides who help her keep these charts up-to-date. Gther duties of the Nurse's Aides include making out request to report slips for exam- inations, thus helping to check ill- ness before it starts. The aides help to facilitate the work of the school, Dr. Leibly, and the school nurse, Miss Munson. lust as maidens who did dis- tinguishable jobs were feted at spe- cial ceremonies long ago, so the Nurse's Aides were given recogni- tion for their service by being pre- sented Red Cross emblems while serving on this committee. Those who received the emblems last semester were Grace White Cchair- man of the committeel, Rosemary Thayer, Lois Coykendall, lune An- derson, Muriel Morrow, Sylvia Alger, Caroline Menglia, Barbara lackson, and lune Eggers. 63 ' Wanda Le!! to right: Mrs. Davenport, Office: Mrs. Everett, Office: Mrs. Olsen, Library. Each lndian tribe had its council to keep records which were painted on buckskins and carved in rocks. Today that task has been assigned to the school office, which acts as a central agency to handle business matters, supply information, and keep school records. Under the direction of Mrs. Davenport and her assistant, Mrs. Everett, the reserva- tion is kept running smoothly and efficiently through the office. lndians, in their never-ending guests for knowledge, keep the flaps of Library tepee in almost constant motion as they call upon Miss Lane and her able assistant library chief, Mrs. Olsen, to fulfill their re- quirements. Efficiently staffed, the library contains books for pleasure reading, source and technological purposes besides the ever-growing Steve Ellis Memorial Library, which forms a living memorial to that de- parted inspirational student leader. Definitely essential, but busily thrust to the background because their tasks are performed mostly after school hours or in parts of the lodge Where no Indian ventures, are the clan of maintenance workers who promote the health standards of the braves and maidens who inhabit the West Seattle reservation by keeping it clean, Warm, well- lighted, and comfortable. Thus, with cooperation by the students of our lodge, helping hands, with miraculous precision, keep West Seattle the attractive res- ervation it is today.

Eligible braves at once put aside their books or livelihoods, girded themselves with shells, guns and courage, then plunged onto torturous battle fields, fight- ing and dying for liberty. Meanwhile, younger tribesmen, remaining at their books, took up more meaningful lives which centered upon supporting their older Warrior brothers. Thus did West Seattle's chieftains lead their tribesmen into a rigorous physical conditioning program which emphasized calisthenics and body contact games to further promotion of endurance, strength, power and faultless mental health. Even the annual jousts on the football, basketball and baseball fields took on added significance as bucks fought harder to fill in the line-up gaps made when ln- dians donned military uniforms. For ten moons, strength, stamina and most essential, character, have been bred in lndians true to their beloved Gold and Blue through their enthusiastic, sportsman- like participation in lndian athletics. ik Jnniball 319141 Jmm PWM x ,Y Marv Benham ......,.......

With last season's championship tennis team in mind, this year's braves were out to hang up another scalp. But the breaks weren't on their side when Ballard toppled the West Seattle lndian 6 to 3. Spurred by de- feat, the bucks came in mightily by beating Franklin 9-O. Warrior Wally Bostick, team cap- tain and number-one man, was in top form, defeating his first opponent 6-2 and 7-5, while the rest of his opponents fell by the wayside. Warren Calvin, Ernie Karlstrom, Bill Anderson, lay Gilmour, Bill I-loard, Derwyn Christensen and Ted Hughes completed the tennis line-up. Opening the '45 golf season for the braves were four returning warriors. Number-one brave was Neil Ogden, number-two man, Don Gelleing num- ber-three man, lerry Bowep while Roger lVlcNutt held down fifth place. New warriors representing our tribe were 'lnumber-four man Ben- nett and braves Erb, Mills and Casson. The first tribal match was against last year's champions, Garfield, when the bucks were upset by a score of 24 to l 5 however, they came battling back to defeat their next two opponents, Broadway and Queen Anne. lndians should be in top brackets when the season ends.

G9 '35 . zbhaketball Shoving the basketball season off to a hilarious begin- ning on lanuary ll, the annual Chinook-Faculty game stole the spotlight. Decked out in moth-eaten, skirted bathing suits, the Faculty Foggies pilfered the Chinook Toddlers in a fast game. Doty's dark horse, better known as Crying Cribley and Woody Ullin, with the assistance of several under- classmen, raced around the maple court of the gym tepee, piling up baskets over the Toddlers, while at the same time, their goatees and handlebar mustaches flew loose. Gathering up their belongings, the varsity Redskins journeyed to far-off Lincoln to be met by a determined foe. Consequently, we withdrew with our our first loss-39 to 27. Cn lanuary l6 our braves rearmed, went out to meet the Ballard tribe on our own hunting grounds and skinned them-39 to 35. With the first of victory tickling their palates, West Seattle braves waded into Cleveland's home soil and scored another win. At the next battle against Queen Anne, the latter unleashed a secret weapon which knocked our feather merchants down-54 to 39. Charging from a cloud of dust and a hail of what seemed like gunfire, the Roosevelt Roughriders attacked again and again to rout the lndians 43 to 33. Cn February 2 the Broadway Bengals tangled with the Redskins on the latter's home grounds. Another game against Lincoln was staged on February 9 with disastrous results for the lndians. After Ballard had sneaked up on us on February 6, with a score of 2l to 20, the Redskins proceeded to down Cleve- land, 29 to l9. Not to be restricted, bucks then dumped the Quays, only to be spilled themselves in plays against Roose- velt and Broadway. Thus ended the First Team basketball battles as our peace-loving warriors returned home for a much needed rest before the council fires on peaceful West Seattle res- 7 9 4-45 ervationg but not without first giving the younger braves and papooses a nod for the remarkable strength and ability they showed in matching themselves against younger basketball players of other tribes. The young'uns first tackled the Lincoln Lynx, but were defeated 41 to 32, as were the thirds, 19 to 14. After losing to Ballard, the Braves and Papooses secured the edge over the seconds by taking wins over Queen Anne, Roosevelt, Broadway and Cleveland, while Queen Anne felt the mighty thrusts of both our younger teams as they remained on the small ends of the 37-28 and 36-34 scores. Unable to stop a Teddy on- slaught, our seconds again bowed to defeat, 75 to 38, while our young'uns fought but lost, 56 to 31. With Broadway leading our locals 30 to 28 and 34 to 22 over our thirds, the basketball season drew to a close, and weary Indian warriors slipped quietly back to old Indian Hill to await the baseball season.

Aiming to fill their big brothers' shoes, the track team last year made ready to carry the banners for old Indian Hill, come 1945. But for many moons a great battle had been waging to the east and west of West Seat- tle reservaion. More extensive than any local tribal squabbles, this war called away many of our prize warriors to take new training and to leave the happy hunting ground between the Cascades and the Olympics.

Thus did fleet footed Ron Iohnson, George Monty, Sid Lindeke, and Bill O'Brien join a fighting team as other capable warriors were called into local council CSpike Shoe Clubl for preparation of this season's Cinder path events. April found the thinclads out on the field each afternoon, well into their training program. After jogging a lap and other careful warming-up rou- tines, the warriors buckled down, each to his own event-distance men running cross-country, sprinters learning cunningly how to start. 74 Pre-season time trials had a young squad of braves, willing but lacking in experience. Distant events rated veterans Bob Clithero, Mike Mohundro and Bruce Smith along with Ierry Prophet, Don Dvorak, Bud Beadellin and Darrel Iohnson as up-and-coming papooses. Returning hurdlers were Vic Neklason and Iohn Adams. Others looking good in the field were Howard Mason and Bruce Blauman, along with a few shy Indians who'll probably show their stuff later in the season.

With broad jump entirely open, two warriors coming on the scene with trouble for their opponents later in the season were Tom Scuitto and Gene Carlson. At a pre-season meet with Cleveland, the braves were in excellent con- dition and defeated their contestants 72 to 32. 75 49011-4' Bw lourney with us through thrilling days of yesteryear as we wend our way up the long twisting trail to a tepee town nestled among gorgeous evergreens, sweet smelling firs, the cool fragrance of blooming spring flowers and lavish golden sunshine -West Seattle reservation, the home of all good Indians. I-lere, in a stately wigwam in the main lodge, warriors are tutored by a worthy lndian chieftain, Chief Ullin, the meaning of courage, valor and how to carry the standards of Blue and Gold victoriously above the traditional enemies of the ln- dians-the Beavers, Bulldogs, Roughriders, Lynx, Eagles, Kuays, Bengals and Quakers. .7fwAh-.Svph 54m Entering tepee town as youthful freshmen, the braves are shown about the reservation and given a chance to get their redskins. At such time they meet Chief Laughing Cloud Murphy, who be- gins at once to wage war against their neglected muscles. As the birds and bees flit by, the deer - that's D-E-E-R - wander through tangled underbrush to clear bubbling brooks, Chief Murphy can be seen standing amidst bull-legged young braves sitting cross legged Obstacle Course on the hard ground in council as he explains the why's and must's of West Seattle's body conditioning course for the high school moons ahead of the young bucks. Twice each week the boys' gym tepee swings open its flaps for an hour to gather in the frosh and soph- omore would-be-he-men that they may receive instruction on their physical condition. Then, by par- ticipating in such basic events as high jumping, tumbling, track and learning basketball fundamentals, these papooses soak in some of the' clean-cut atmosphere which inhab- its the lodge where strenuous life means more than just a historical QIUUDJI Hqm As the sun pushes its way up over the horizon and pours its warmth upon our little reservation nestled 'neath tall commanding maples, we find braves of the junior class filing into the voluminous lodge of Chief Murphy, who is industriously writ- ing a letter which reads, Dear Charlie: just finished full courseg please send muscles. Without a word from their en- grossed coach or even as much as a crack of his lashing bull whip, the quotation. bucks begin going through a pro- Push-ups 76 -Courtesy Chet Ullin Rope-Climbing cess of mildly-violent contortions, better known as calisthenics, Exertion continues along the lines of push-ups, dips, around five fath- omsp knee bends, sit-ups, hops, burpees and arching, after which, for those who still insist that they are living, the process of building up bodies with futures is carried on by means of running, high-jumping, bar vaulting, rope jumping and chinning. When weather permits, part of the period is devoted to marching, since most young bucks have their futures signed up with Uncle Sam. At times when orders come too fast and furious, ranks, in their confusion, come to look like pay day at the gas works. Then, a series of commands are barked out. To the rear, march! Left flank to the rear, march! Right flank, forward, march! Column to the rear oblique. March! When the battle of the drill field is over, one should not be surprised to find exhausted redskins lying prone in the dust, while their com- rades trample over them in that eternal dash to reach the showers. Cn the final day of the week, braves participate in tribal games, which bring out their competitive spirits. These younger bucks aren't quite ready to enter into the ultra- Obstacle Course strenuous battle of Ranger, but must console themselves by playing a milder contrivance known as American Ball, a game that is a combination of all sports: clubbing, derived from golf, kicking, from soccer, tackling, from football, punching, from boxing, and stam- ina, derived from track. ,Srmwn 54m As each sun passes, the lndian's physical conditioning program be- comes more strenuous until it cul- minates in Senior gym. Abiding by the theory that the best soldier is the one who has an athletic background because his muscles are attuned to the rigors of competition, his mind alerts to his opponents' weaknesses and his be- ing innoculated with the burning desire to WlN, Chief Ullin has thrown unnecessary caution to the winds in centering his whole condi- tioning program for West Seattle's braves on calisthenics and body- contact games. Exercise that tends to develop strength, power, endurance, flexi- bility, agility and balance hold the spotlight on the program. Senior gym will help bring about physical stamina, faultless mental health and the resourceful thinking needed so much in this war for the preservation of humanity, says Coach Ullin. 77 iyizlvspvw Left to right: Ierry Mitchell, President: Lorraine Nokes, Vice President: Ioan Tews, Secretary-Treasurer: Miss Weir, Sponsor. West Seattle lndian maidens frol- icked through the nine moon season first, by enduring hard games of Speedball, followed by a favorite indoor sport, Volleyball, only to have vigorous much-awaited Basketball take its place later in the season. This spring, fleetfooted gals flocked to the ball diamond to try their hands at Soft Ball. Mingled throughout the nine moons such ac- tivities as Badminton, Ping Pong, Horse Shoes, Tennis, and hikes to various sites kept the lndian maids on the go. These fun loving gals followed their brown-skinned ancestors not because they sought to increase their physical stamina only, but rather to make new friendships, en- rich old ones, and to make their personalities more interesting. Maidens of the girls' pow-wow group, better known as the Girls 'W' Club, were led by Chieftain Gerry Mitchell, who made Club one of the prominent clans of the yearg for besides regular meet- ings and activities, Club girls made up the Color Guard, spon- sored a P.-T.A. dance and initiated Health Day to West Side students. ' Cn one occasion, the sguaws heard the call of their forefathers and treked to Alki Cby and byl to trample over happy hunting grounds. The thrill of the year, how- ever, came when Mrs. Ferguson, one of the new athletic chieftains, beck- oned her maids and their chief ad- visor, Mrs. Taras, to her summer home on Vashon lsland.

Saaffle, I 945 1 dmchmq azmbalf 79 9 Moons ago, l923 to be exact, Chief Laughing Cloud Murphy called a council of peace high atop West Seattle hill. With grunts of approval from the many braves sitting cross- legged around the council fire, Chief Murphy outlined a program to provide extra curricular activities for the warriors who did not or could not wage contested battles against our common opponents on the sports field. Encouraging the younger pa- pooses to play in actual competition, everyone from the green peas to the polished fruits flocked to Chief Murphy's parade grounds, then, through the loving comradeship of their older tribesmen, started a varied program that offered a chance for every redskin to carry the blue and gold tribal standards. As the leaves turned to yellow, falling to the ground, and the geese packed up their belongings and moved south against the will of the CRA., which wanted to know if the trip was necessary, Warrior Lalambe and his tribesmen skipped through the major basketball season without too much opposition and .Snow then bwangn, Redskin Norden's guintet let fly with a volley of arrows to down Lalambe's tribe and then go on to win the championship. ln the papoose or minor league, One Feather Wilson's five outran a strong field to capture first place honors, with twelve scalps and three setbacks. Answering Uncle Sam's call for a program of body building in step with the Vim for Victory program, Chief Pat introduced a game to his braves called Chins and Dips. The dips were done on a set of deer horns which protruded from the wall, while the chins were ac- complished on a spear set off the ground and held in place by cap- tured enemy students that had fallen prey to their older brothers on the sports field. That braves might chase their op- ponents iaster, a lOO mile club was offered along with tumbling and ping pong that served to sharpen wits and reactions of redskins. Formerly only an outlet for the excess steam of the lndians, intra- mural sports now play a major part in the school program. Ping Pong Tumbling Dips 80 ' f F va.

Since Pearl Har- bor West Seattle warriors have gotten around to fighting fronts which range all over the world. Many of them will never return. Maybe that's the reason that those pleasant memories of the lighter side of life on the West Seattle range means more than ever today. To outsiders, cokes, dances, football games, fads, horseplay on the lawn at Hiawatha and pin-up plastered lockers bulging over with just stuff may look like so much fodder, but to an lndian it means School Life - something worth fighting for, something which is so pleas- ant to remember that it's even worth dying for, because it means peace. When lndians get around to checking in their books for the last time on old lndian l-lill and hustle down the path to adult- hood, those great big handsome football stars may stick in their memories, or, if they're braves, the Winsome smile of some lndian princess may center in their minds. Perhaps the opening football game or swell times with the gang down at Mac's will be number one on the memory parade. But the association, whatever it is, por- trays som.ething worth remembering - School Lifefat West Seattle. ii? GOOD OLD HOMEDAYS AUGUST . . . . 31 As the janitors sit cross-legged about the blazing bonfires in the teepee high atop Indian Hill the school again comes to life. The boiler room takes on the heated air, and as the janitors shed their headdresses, students arrive from glorious vacations spent in far-off happy hunting grounds. War whoops greet happy teachers as they return to their good old jobs. School again begins and students settle down to the same rut they will be in far the next IU moons, that of shooting their food while roaming their happy lands studying to be chiefs and pleasing their parents with good grades. Wlonn nf lawm- SEPTEMBER Big chief of the gridsmen, WOODY ULLIN, is greeted by the returning braves tlettermenl for another successful season of foot- ball. The boys continuing their strenuous training are MARV BENHAM, ED BRAY, IACK SETH, HM BURROUGHS, HAY IENSEN and HOWARD BELLOWS. As Woody puts the Warriors in the pink for the season, they make a good rating in the prep standing. As the Indians congregate for the big day, loud war whoops break the silence. The squaws file into their places and park cross- legged on the bleachers to witness the great war 'of the year, the opening football game between West Seattle and Cleveland. As the mighty West Seattle team plows down the field, screams of terror rise from the opposing team. It is the great trample of the century as the score at the end of the game is 38-0, West Seattle's favor. Starting the football season in full color, the P.-T.A. sponsors a corn dance of the season. Students flock the mighty hill of West Seattle at the Hiawatha trail to be present at the KICK-OFF DANCE. West Seattle's team again lines up for the kick-off. Queen Anne fairly shakes with fear of our great team, for they are in rare form on this particular day of September. The Indians let Kuays feast their eyes on the great Indians of the decade for a few minutes and then send them back to their dreams of a great strong Warrior team like West Seattle.

All the old chiefs gather in the lunchroom, chaperoned by their daughters, for the FATHER-DAUGHTER BANOUET. Fathers and daughters alike have fun in the gym after dinner with old time dancing games. As the witches wander and the owls hoot, the black cats silently move about, good old West Seattle does just the opposite from that which is expected by their Reverse Halloween Drive. 9720911 nfiha p1yAlul1- NOVEMBER ....1 'z 3 16-17 20 The best members ot the clan, the seniors, gather to have their pictures taken on this memorable moon for the Kimtah.

Becoming Betty McCoy was crowned as best looking girl, while lack Seth scalped the honor of Hhandsomest brave. Peacetulness about the range of West Seat- tle was constantly on the verge of being broken with mad-cap antics or piercing peals of laugh- ter manufactured by the coniuring hands or throats of laughing Anna Makus and West Sides own joy boy Bob Clithero. Deep from the forests of Csca-woo-woo CGate- woodi and Lose-wo-casuko Clfauntleroyi, there peered from behind the trees two pairs of eyes belonging to two noteworthy lndiansflaclyn Fuller, with her puppy-dog peepers, and Icxy Gilmour, with his romantically blue winkers. While some maidens had happiness shining from their eyes and smiles, Ioyce Couch radi- ated it from her peaches and cream complex- ion and blamed it all on fresh air. tWhat, no l4-day free trial plan?i As their sun god, West Seattleites chose Don Sundbom, who, with his much-envied sun tan, left for the wars in November. Because there are always two in every crowd, land we don't mean what you're think- ingl West Seattle's '45 clan is no exception, in old tepee town by shimmering Puget Sound Mary Flack and Neil Ogden captured the title of liked the mostest and the bestest. Not true to lndian style, but definitely considered tops where hair was con- cerned, Blanche McMath and lim Schulz needed no tomahawk to capture the handle of maid and brave with the best looking hair. Figuratively speaking, the warrior who was considered to have the best physique turned out to be uniformed Ray Iensen, who joined the Marines to let the laps in on some of his football tactics. Wm! ,Smftla I 945 West Seattleites gathered round to celebrate athletic events with many a whoop and howl. Prominent at most all of these festivals was rugged Howard Bellows, who knew his way around in any major sport. Cheering braves on while they were in tour- naments Cincluding himself? was that morale- raising boy with the buckskin moccasins and feathers in his hair, the Spirit of West Seattle, Leroy Layton. Tribes and treetops of old Hiawatha swayed with contentment when piano-plinking master, Patsy Campbell, dug on her instrument. Maiden Pat was a master in more ways than onep that's the reason she was tagged Most Accomplished Girl. A red headed Indian Cwe go in for varietyl Don Olsen. kept the range agog with his versatility, so he was dubbed Most Accomplished Boy. When Indians leave their lodge upon paths of their own, there will be two in their lot who will have extra confidence to carry on their journeys. These two fortunates have rated the confidence of fellow tribesmen by being selected most likely to succeed. They are maiden Norma Io Cruchon and warrior Dick Solibakke. Many a maiden wondered at the power a certain female Indian held over the chiefs of the tribe, f'nd they're sure it isn't a dub? but they quiz no more for they discovered that with Katie Burton it's the smile that counts. Likewise, chief Ron Iohnson used his perky mouth charm to best advan- tage, being a Navy man. With doeskins just a little out of style these past ten moons, West Seattle Indians preferred the smooth attire of Pattie Lybeck and Sdott Dot- terer and rated them best dressed for l945. Indians are naturals at the old dancing art. Billee Wing and Strato Zoumalis are liv- ing examples. Ianet Hoiteditz was brand- ed as the Indian maid with the best figure, Cwhich is a mighty nice brandl. We'l1 admit she's not a real Indian, but . . . !

Girls' Club members this year put their heads together in conference and emerged by extending the Girls' Athletic Trophy of the Girls' 'W' Club to sen- ior Beverly Humphreys be- cause her athletic enthusi- asm, performance, leader- ship, service and sports- manship rated her honors. Leadership in school serv- ice and studies, outstanding personality, friendliness and traits Which influence others to do good are the qualities embodied in the Willard Shield award. The two lndians qualify- ing to leave their names permanently engraved on this Shield are Maiden Mary Kinzel and Brave Dick Soli- bakke. Dick, as Student Body President through his part in drafting and pass- ing the lndian Constitution, Will be remembered along with the late Steve Ellis in lndian government. Mary, as Girls' Club president, has been significant in her friendly attitude and influ- ence for good. WILLABD SHIELD 93 Zlono Dick Solibakke, Valedictoricm: Norma Io Cruchon, Kiwanis Award: Don Olsen Scxlutatoricm Reaping the fruits of their ceaseless labors in the fields of knowledge, Dick Solibakke and Don Qlsen have reached the pinnacle of their high school careers, for they have been selected Valedictorian and Salutatorian respectively from the class of l945. Outstanding scholastic records built by earnest effort and initiative, plus a real appreciation of the benefits to be harvested from an education, won for these two lndians the worthy titles which have been bestowed upon them. Not only did they bring honor upon themselves, but West Seattle and its tribesmen profited from the bountiful services they rendered in their school community aside from curricular activities. KIWANIS IOURNALISM PLAQUE 94 Every year one student is awarded the Kiwanis Iournalism Plague for outstanding journalism, commemo- rating the death of Rupert Hamilton, former chief of that Indian news- paper, the West Seattle Herald. Therefore, it was not altogether unexpected when, from the tribe of l945, Norma Io Cruchon was unani- mously elected the best ink slinger from West Seattle's newspaper clan. Since her tepee days, she's shown unusual interest in stone slab work Cnewspapersl and has put forth much of her time furthering the ideals of the Chinook and Indian l-lill. Norma lo, through her friendli- ness, has created a unity between her fellow clan members. Further- more, she's kept deadlines faithfully as a true journalist and has turned over quality copy to the press. 7945 V Leroy Layton, Basketball Award: Mary Kinzel, Miss Inspiration: Iack Seth, Football Inspirational Award. Buckle down, West Seattle, buckle down, came the chants of the clan as the Redskins plowed down the field to chalk up another goal for old lndian l-lill. Responsible for much of this year's teamwork was lack Seth. Because he loved football as much as a savage lndian loved a scalp, lack was a real inspiration to his team mates when he fought for his school as a fair, clean warrior who knew what he wanted and went out to get it. Thus, lack Seth received the Football lnspiration Award from his fellow tribesmen.

Trapped! Ah, Puget Sound Alma Mater Our Boy Bill! Girls Galore! lOl U! jhinqa in Come The great class of the year l945, which left West Seattle High just twelve years ago, has been transplanted to their own thriving community of Gone-to-Seedville. Time has brought the year to read l957 on a beautiful, spring day in May. The world is at peace and so is LEO BARNECUT, king of the bums, as he lazily sleeps under the rubber trees. The silence of early morn, is broken as the milkman, PAUL PUGH, sticks his head in BLANCHE and MARV BENHAM'S kitchen door, yelling, I'm milking the elk today. The BOB HENRYS are having trouble with their kids again and as wife IOYCE bangs their heads together she quietly says, Get your mangy mud- hooks off the dog's bed. AUNTIE BETTY SHOWALTER sits down for a rugged day of knitting and gently pats BOB IR. on the head, leaving an ugly welt. Down the street walks BOB DOGGETT leading a dozen or so chickens. He's just come from the famous HDOGGETT CHICKEN FARM otherwise known in the local parts as HBARNYARD HALL. Not far behind him the garbage department is collecting the trash. WALT IENSEN is finally in authority as he hoists the rusty old garbage can to his back and trots off to the truck driven by friend NELS LEE. MARY KINZEL, president of Gone-to-Seedville's Uplift Society, sniffs loudly as she passes the men. CThat darn asthma is getting the best of her.l I-Ier co-workers consist of YVONNE CLEVERLY, in charge of men, IOAN ARPS, in charge of men, IERRY MITCHELL, in charge of men, DOROTHY SWIFT, in charge of men, SHIRLEY IOY, in charge of men, and HOWARD BELLOWS, in charge of women. Working for the betterment of the town along with MARY is DICK SOLI- BAKKE, a street cleaner by profession and at present giving a famous soap box speech entitled, The Solibakke Way of Living or All Bums Aren't Poor. Assisting him is his valet, TRUXTON KING, selling the mineral oil. As the crowd slowly melts, the two internationally known tennis champions, BOB SWIVEL WRIST GREENWOOD and SOR RUBBER KNEE STAMOS, are seen on their way to have a short one-set of tennis you know. The two bachelors, NEIL OGDEN and IIM BURROUGHS, are the rave of the town as there is still a man power shortage. As they continue down the street, IIM with his twirled mustache and NEIL, with his bald head, IANET HOFFEDITZ, CYNTHIA FRENCH, IACKIE DAI-IL, AUDREY SCI-IADE and MARY FLACK appear on the scene and cry hopefully in unison, No one's taking me out to dinner tonight. NEIL replies in a superior tone, 'Tough turkey! You're going to get mighty hungry before morning. Still, we find the class of people who work hard for a living tstrange and them from West Seattle, at thatl. For instance, IOAN SPURGEON, skul- lery maid, working for the scion ERNIE KARLSTROM, owner of KARL- STROM'S I-IEEL CORPORATION, or IOI-INNY POPICH, who still mows lawns, and even PETER HOLZHEIMER, who is in the life insurance business. PETER never did act much like a traveling salesman, but then you can never tell about his type. 102 On the spacious curved boulevard of First Avenue, which adds the touch of Seattle to the town, are found the more prominent families and peo- ple. MARGARET DEAR occupies the little place with the sign above the door saying, Buy your snuff here. Next door is BOB CLITHERO, minding the little Muscleses, as the head of the house is out earning the living at the office. On the other side of the street there is housed the world famous newspaper, The Gone to Seedville Daily, Monthly, Semi-yearly, and Yearly YOKELH and as owner NORMA DEADLlNE CRUCHON cracks her snake whip, ANNA MAKUS, who has worked her way up to the one and only copy boy, jumps to life and in a split second has the entire office in an uproar, throwing papers on the floor and in a matter of minutes has the whole second edition on the streets. Up on the winding avenue is the dream-castle of the mayor of the town, MAYOR IAY GTLMOUR, who has aged considerably, as his hair is purplish gray, his mustache Creal this timel is a bright red, and his chest has settled considerably against his stom- ach. Aside from this he still maintains his girlish figure. At present he is meeting with his commissioners, LEROY SWfSHER LAYTON, COOKlE TOY BOY BIGGS, BARBARA FRANCES PERKINS DALE, TERRY THE lERK FLANERY and TERRY HUBA HUBAH ROWE on the matter of what to do with the Sl.37 in the city treasury. Other important matters are being taken up by the Police Department over a crap game and as Chief Police 'Woman IACKTE FULLER rolls another seven for the fourth consecutive time, SGT. MIKE MOHUNDRO tears hirgself away from the novel FOREVER AMBER to answer a robbery ca . NELS IOHNSON has recently published his novel The Morning After after spending many years at research work. TED HANSEN has won fame through his night club The Black and Tan and FORREST HARVEY, lawyer, is out of town for a couple of weeks, as he has just won a breach of promise suit for MARY WILLOUGHBY. Another person mixed up with the law in one way or another is BRUCE KEITH. BETTY WHALEN has cut her hair and now thinks she is lngrid Bergman and also is hunting for a Gary Cooper. On the outskirts of town, a girls' boarding school is run by Dean HELEN STOBIE, and as she herds all her little kiddies in a brood, she tells them of her little episodes in her younger days of skiing. They all listen intently as she feeds them the line that she jumped SOO feet from the ski jump at world-famed Snoqualmie. IOHN ROYAL listens intently this mother smuggled him in on the grounds that he just loved little girlsj, for his life ambition was to be the Dean of a Girls' School. DEAN PARKINS still attempts to take pictures, but with a little intelli- gence he could do a lot better, for he never did learn that the person pos- ing for the picture has to stand in FRONT of the camera. The pleasant, cosy little town of Gone-to-Seedville is a huge success and all the citizens of this growing metropolis are happy, prosperous and coop- erative. This is not hard to visualize, for with the background they had at West Seattle, they will always be content. Going high atop the hills in back of the nestling little city, the outline of the town is seen with the church steeple reaching high and the farm land spreading outward. Yes, the class of l945 has made a place in the world for themselves where they can live happily. 103 clyn Fuller Associate Editor Tom-toms beat, warriors chanted, and wrinkled old chiefs sat cross-legged around smoking council tires, solemnly smoking their peace pipes. All was at peace. Suddenly through the trees, marching to that old Indian tune Mac Na Merra's Band, came the Kim- tah staff from a hard day of collecting memories tor Norma Io Cruchon Literary Editor Anna Makus School Life Editor Elaine Blake Faculty Editor Ralph Gidloti Picture Editor Paul Pugh Art Editor Rose Sootheran Senior Editor their tribesmen to keep in their tepees tor many moons to come. Representing all of West Seat- tle, the statt spent many laborous hours in dimly lit wigwams com- posing a book ot pleasant mem- ories, the title ot which indicates just that Cliirntahl. Having drenched themselves in the lndian spirit which symbolizes West Se- attle, the braves and maidens on the editorial statt wouldn't be at all surprised to see their own noses light up in gold and blue lights since their initiations into the publishing world. Making friends with other tribes, as is their custom, Kimtah mem- bers welcomed the photography assistance ot that warrior-about town, lay Gilmour. Iackie Dahl M anaginq Editor Barbara Dale Artist Dean Parkins Photography Editor Lucile Arbak Girls' Sports Editor Lee Fridlin Class Editor Patiently the staff of the Kirntah waited for events to happen so that those could be recorded in their book. Trails echoed With voices of staff members out interviewing or taking snap shots. Indian photographers hung from trees, out of win- dows and stood on roofs trying scene school life pictures. Guides were contacted and copy Was chipped into stone slabs to be taken to the printer. Under the advisorship of two brave faculty members, Big Chief Know-All-Angles Dotson and Princess Woman-With-the-Whip Charnberlen, the staff set the book to growing. Chief editor Iackie Dahl presided over the tribe, While Princess Peacepipe Iaclyn Fuller assisted her in culminating co- operation and talents from the tribe of individualists who send you this Kimtah for the sun of l945.

The arrows that had flown Swift and true to the deer's heart Fly in a foreign land And pierce the hearts of men. Ears that have heard the children Laughing in the forest Hear the starving cry When there is no food to feed them. Eyes that watched the bushes To find the wily rabbit Have seen their comrade die To become a gold star symbol. A heart that was hard before l-las prayed with faith and wisdom, Including all people of the world ln a dream of lasting peace. When the Big Chiefs smoke the peace pipe, The brave will come home againg A brave with the body of a boy Housing the heart of a man. hlOYCE MCFATE, 1945 Eu JAM ' ll I mx ACTIVITIES OF THE WEST SEATTLE INDIAN Q I f ,, fag, f ,Of X ,Q 4 ogQQ5,q',g, HW , I , I ,. , I ' - is X X N52-:f ,, f Y f , N. 6 ff V X ix! i .6 Q 5 'Ii a K 4' 'N QB l IX V 'if ff? f ff f ' 5 'A ,ff S' L in X555 I Cv -' MM fi E di I A .

If you listen to my tale, It will turn your faces pale As I tell of one long flight That continued day and night, As none ever had before. , Each young brave took up his pen And thought and wrote, then thought again. Each maiden also thought, then wrotep Essays followed scribbled note. Stories, poems, tales of laughter To thrill Indians ever after, Tales of pow-wows and Indian lore. For many moons the battle raged, And many a mental War was staged As the Warriors struggled on Until their strength was nearly gone. The Kimtah's done, as you can see, They Wrote this book for you and me. At last the battIe's o'er. -By GRACE REINDEL f Class o l IU '45 my io... Like the lndians of yester-year, who existed because of the cooperation of the braves and maidens, this year's Kimtah exists only because of the cooperation of the many people concerned. My special thanks go to MR. ANDERSON, Faculty Art Editor, and his Silk Screen classes. Mr. Anderson contributed the cover design and the colored inserts for the book. The help of MR. POPP of the Acme Engraving Co., ME. PLOSENTI-IAL of the University Printing Co., and the Ralston Photography Studio was indispensable. Their professional knowledge and understanding of the amateur annual staff made a combination that was unconguerable. Special thanks to Mr. Chet Ullin, who furnished the pictures for Boys' Sports. MRS. Cl-IAMBERLEN, faculty sponsor of the Kimtah, gave much needed advice to a scared and green staff. Faculty business sponsor MR. DCTSON made it possible for the staff to realize some of those dreams they had in the backs of their minds with his managing of the business end of the annual. l'd like to take this chance to thank each member, even though it is not individually, for their cooperation and help in making this Kimtah what it is. What l'd done Without Norma Cruchon, Literary Editor, and Dean Parkins, Photography Editor, I don't know. Thanks a lot, everyone. Iackie Dahl M anaqing Editor. .,paqQ September ..... , Study annuals, annuals and more annuals so that l can see what others did wrong so l Won't do it, too. October .....
