THE T'KOPECHUCK OF 1959 WHITE RIVER HIGH SCHOOL BUCKLEY, WASHINGTON QPIRITUAL,CULTURAL, AND ACADEMIC VALUEQ ARE NECE8SARY IN OUR EVER GROWING WORLD Man, the human animal, is bom with the instinct for preserving his own life from the time of birth, with its immediate desire for food and shelter until his death. In this respect, he is like the lowliest of the animals of the fields. With the end of babyhood man ceases to resemble the animal of the field and grasps the complex workings and learnings of the human brain. He learns from his elders and by experience the difference between right and wrong and how to live, well adjusted, in our ac- cepted social communities. Spiritual, cultural, and Academic values become a part of his everyday life. The study of letters and numbers becomes more complex as his mind develops comprehension and logic. Soon he has in his grasp the mental material with which he learns more and ever more. This pattern of learning never stops until his breath and heart cease their functions. High school students are prone to look upon graduation as an end or completion, but if the desired goal of the efforts of teachers and students are achieved by the graduation from secondary school the end becomes a small one. More properly it is a beginning, and it is up to us individually and collectively, to make it a good and satisfying beginning. Each of us has the opportunity to make our transition into adulthood a rewarding experience for ourselves, our teachers, our community, and our country. None of us may ever be- come great men or women. None of us need to be great in the general understanding of the term, if we conscientiously try to suc- ceed in our chosen fields. Whether it be in the search for further formal education, in business or in our own homes, for we will then become good citizens of this ever-growing world of ours. 5 FACULTY INSPIRED AND GUIDED Mr. BLANUSA B.A. College of Puget Sound Mr. BADHAM B.S.

Other debates were held at Bellermine, Summer and Franklin Pierce. Hard work brought these girls a win on January 14. 33 Debaters reviewing book for possible evidence value. Students go over outline.

It’s members are Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors with a grade point average of 3.00 or better. Among their activities was their annual in- itiation of new members. They also served refresh- ments in the library after the Homecoming Assem- bly and presented a one act radio play at the Christ- mas Assembly. After the election of their officers, a commit- tee was appointed to revise their constitution. OFFICERS: Vice Pres. S. Dubey; Pres. L. Makela; and Members of Honor Society MANY HANDS MAKE THE LOAD LIGHTER This year our library staff, consisting of eleven girls, has made our library a very enjoyable part of the school. Many new books were purchased this year, and many older books were repaired, yet with all of this work the library was always colorfully decorated and there was always someone ready to help the stu- dents. By helping Mrs. Rich, our faculty librarian, in her many tasks of filing and repairing books, they have taken a large part in making the library a better place to read and study.

Work on the first one commenced soon after school began. The effort put forth by every member of the cast was reflected in the huge success of State Fair. The plot centered around the Frakes family played by Louise Leach, Bob Badham, and their two children. They were able to go to the state fair to show their pet hog, Blue Boy, but there were romantic complications that arose as the story pro- gressed. Bad luck seemed to pursue them when the hog became ill, and then won. Luckily, however, all of the complications, romantic and otherwise, were ironed out quickly to bring down the curtain on one of the best received plays ever presented at White River. The old storekeeper gave advice to the Frakes family. 51 The carnival barker, Jerry Jeter, is told how to run his business by G. A. A. PR0M0TE9 9P0RT9MAN9HIP AND 1. President: Janice Melton 2.

Fourteen boys turned out, all with hopes of filling the position vacated by the three lettermen who graduated last year. With only three lettermen gone from the squad, Coach Lloyd Blanusa was able to field a very strong team with Jan Wolcott at third base; John Wellock, catcher; Jody Gregg, Blaine Wesner, pitching; Jerry Jeter, shortstop; Joel Delisa, first base; Ron Gatto at second base; Dick Roney and Russ Rudolph in the outfield; Dwight Partin, catching plus many en- thusiastic Freshmen and Sophomores to back them up.

Many close plays made for an exciting season. 66 !L TRACK TEAM HAS SUCCESSFUL SEASON Larry Dodson won many events with his powerful discus throwing. Brent Cristel displayed good form with the javelin. Gary Sambila, the new track coach this year had many hopes for a very successful season with many returning lettermen and the Sophomores up from the Junior High team as the basis for these hopes. All the events were well represented in the track meets held at the various schools, with many qualified trackmen winning places in the discus, javelin, shot put, and the hurdles and sprints. A few of the boys from the team qualified in the sub-county and district meets receiving great satisfaction for themselves and honor for the school in doing this.
