Paul Huhtala: and Mr. Litvincko. class advisor. Marilyn Chalberg and Joyce Borter led us in junior high yells.

Ted Gonzales: Secretary. Joy Bagnall: Representative. Betty Olesrud: aided by Mr. Snell, class advisor. The big event of the year for us was the sophomore dance. With Yvonne Anderson as chairman we chose Hornet Hop as the theme. Kaye Hreha was secretary to the G.A.A.: Bill Gallion and Ted Gonzales were our participants in sports.

Bill Gallion went to state for track. Marilyn Chalberg and Joyce Borter were senior high yell leaders. Nancy Myers and Phyllis Grab were co-chairmen of the Junior Prom. Gay Paree. which was the highlight of our junior year. Firmly established in White River, we bring to a close our junior year, anxiously anticipating next year. At last wc have reached our destination. Not long ago as freshmen, we looked up at all the seniors, but now. finally on top. they look up to us. Mr. Snell is back as our class advisor. Dick Albright was elected to be our class president again: Ike Bazzar. vice-president, and Joy Bagnall is serving her last year as secretary. Jeanette Trulliager was class representative.

Dave Orriss received the Inspirational Award and Block and Tackle Award at the annual football banquet sponsored by the Kiwanis. He also was president of the Lettermen's Club.

In football eight seniors made their letter. Baseball and track were also dominated by seniors. The Annual Staff put their trust in Yvonne Anderson when they chose her as editor of the annual. Highlight of the year, besides graduation, was the senior ball, with April Showers as the theme. Committees, under the direction of Co-chairmen Janice Poutt and Ike Bazzar. did an excellent job of making the dance a success. Mr. £ ncll. our advisor, did an excellent job fixing various props to accommodate the theme. Most of us will remember the trip the whole senior class took to Tacoma when our pictures were taken. My gosh! Where did the time go? It seems that we just started and now we are ready to go into the world on our own. but neverthe- less we had a good time all four years. Our senior year is one never to be lorgottcn. Remember the trip to Tacoma for our pictures, order- ing our calling cards, announcements and our robes? School really wasn i so bad was it? We had our ups and downs, and all in all we enjoyed every bit of it. But where did the time all go?

The juniors were seen participating in many events throughout the year, such as displaying their mighty vim and vigor at pep assemblies, presenting the junior class play, comprising the popular Jug Band, and other numerous activities. The main event sponsored by the class was the Junior Prom. A Hawaiian theme was chosen. Chairman of the dance.

Among its many achievements was the revising of the Constitution, a task filled with hard work. Each girl was given a copy of the revised edition. The annual Homecoming affair is sponsored by the members of the Girls’ Club. This year our Homecoming was held October 29. The girls worked hard to put on a program that was different and interesting. One of the main projects of the club is the annual Girls’ Club Tolo. which this year was held on December 11. sporting a Christmas theme of Winter Fantasy.” A new project undertaken by the girls was the spon- soring of a Variety Show which was composed of school and public talent. The cabinet, along with the president and the advisor, is the governing body of the group. It includes a vice- president. secretary, a representative from each class, sales chairman, assistant sales chairman, entertainment chair- man, league room chairman, friendship chairman and G.A.A. president. One of the last affairs of the Girls’ Club was the Mother-Daughter Tea held this spring. L. REMINGTON, Secretary V.

The concert consisted of many beautiful carols and hymns which received much applause. They were assisted by Miss Agnew’s speech and dramatics class which presented a Christmas pantomime. Soon as the Christmas Concert was over, the choral department started preparing for the Winter Concert.. This concert, too, was a big success and showed many hours of hard work. An added feature of the programs was the singing of the Senior Girls’ Quintet, which contributed much entertainment. For an outside activity and money-raising project, the choir sold Christmas trees in downtown Buckley. The choral department had a very successful year and received much praise for their accomplishments. FIRST ROW: D. Albright, B. Anderson, D. Orriss, E. Olson. SECOND ROW: F. Zydek, P. Huhtolo, G.

The uniforms were worn for the first time at the Winter Concert. Representing the band at the Solo and Ensemble Contest were the Woodwind Quintet, the Saxophone Quartet, and a few soloists.

Most of this success was due to the fine spirit shown bv the players throughout the year. Another major factor in the Hornets' success was the fine job of coaching bv Mr. Ross and Mr. Snell. The Hornets' Homecoming game did not turn out as expected with the Yclm Tornadoes upsetting the Hornets by a score of 1 2-0. The Bethel Braves were the only other team which beat White River’s Hornets, and it was just bv an eyelash. The final score was 14-1 . The outlook for next year's team is very promising with several returning lcttermen and a group of good ball- players coming up from the ranks of the junior high team. The Hornets were at one time during the season rated as the third best B school in the state, but they were dropped to ninth in the final poll because of two losses in a row.

ESTABROOK The White River Hornets finished a very successful season this year by placing first among the “B schools in the West Central League. The Hornets won their berth in the West Central District State play-offs, but un- fortunately were defeated two out of four games to be dropped from the play-offs. Much of the Hornets’ success was due to the 6 foot 2 inch captain. Lowell (Ike) Bazzar. Ike held the honor of ending the season with 336 points, which was top scoring for the league. The Hornets first five consisted of four seniors and one junior, and was also considered a short team in com- parison with many of the schools. However, the team as a whole was experienced, for it was composed of four returning lettermen, which turned out to be a big asset. They were Lowell Bazzar. Dave Elison, Rich Morgan and Trank Gonzales. Others on the first ten squad were Joe Dieringer. Ted Gonzales. Dave Orriss. Dave Jones. Joe Caviezel and Vern Estabrook. Coach Jack Ross is proud of the way his quintet improved in morale and power, and is hoping that his future teams will show improvement and satisfaction as the team of '54-’55 has done. T.

The final outcome of the basketball season was the seniors taking the championship for the fourth year. Volleyball stepped out next on the list of’ sports with the seniors becoming champions. With the coming of spring and the weather warming up. baseball and tennis soon became the most popular sports. Dorothy McCasland, the G.A.A. President, has done a wonderful job in keeping the girls interested in sports. A good time was had by the G.A.A. girls and as the year comes to a close, many look back and remember all the fun and friends they have made during the year.

Again this year the yell leaders had classes and clubs present pep skits before the-student body. Something new this year adding to the school spirit was the election of song leaders, who attended the veil conference at Vashon and other events with the cheer leaders. The yell team attended every game during the regular season, led the rooters and backed the teams all the way. Much credit is to be given the popuar cheer leaders for the important part they play in giving the teams moral support. ticipate The freshman class of '58 started the year by voting in their class officers, who were to be sent to Student Council. Bert Johnson was un- animously chosen to lead his class as president. As Bert's helper and team-mate Linda Madden joined him as class representative. He was also ably assisted by Gary Lastala, Gean Doty, Sharon Kropi. Raymond Bernadelli and Dennis Palari. During the year, the freshmen sponsored a 'Sock'' dance and also sponsored dancing in- structions for interested members of the class. The freshman class is eagerly awaiting next year when they will become sophomores. FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS FIRST ROW: R. Bernadelli, G. Lastala, B. Johnson. SECOND ROW: S. Kropi, G. Doty, D.
