Hoffmann those attributes which most of us aspire to .... humility, dedication to principle, unselfish devotion to duty, and realizing that he is probably, next to our parents, more responsible for our health and well-being than anyone else, and further realizing that he has concerned himself with the health of people here in this community for a full fifty years, this year, we hereby dedicate the 1957 WOCOWA to our doctor . FOREWORD On this page and the one opposite are two of loodland's foremost citizens. Both have given, nd plan to go right on giving, a lifetime of ser- 1ce to the people of this community. It is with a sense of dedication. . . that is, per aps we might similarly dedicate ourselves to an deal that the Wocowa staff proudly notes the ervice rendered to Woodland. Once again in these pages are relived familiar 'moments of this school year. It is hoped that ach WOCOWA subscriber may gain from these ages the same degree of pleasure and satisfac- Lon as did the staff and its advisers in preparing Young Dr. Hoffmann, fresh out of University of Oregon medical school and interneship at St. Vincent's Hospital in Portland, makes rounds of calls on horseback. This snapshot, a copy of a faded one especially prepared for the Dr, Hoff- mann Scrapbook of 1947, was taken near La Center in 1907. .Q 4 an ,l 11 . . .

From many people putting ideas together, a few ultimately as- semble the finished product. All have a vital role in getting out the book. Yet the final work can only be done by a few.

X X I SCHOOL BOARD GLAD BUILDING PROGRAM COMPLETED At last! Such a sigh signifying accomplishment of the building program might be heard from any of the school board members. After long, drawn out waiting because of red tape and material shortages, the near-million dollar high school building program is completed. Hours and hours of discussion, debate and decision over a three year period have gone into it. Re -elected chairman of the board for next year, Roy Sellers continues his leader ship of the directors.

N ' Q 'E VFX?- 3 Xi R si? 55 ZTZTJZJQHQE SUPERINTENDENT COMMENDS IMPROVEMENT by George Hornburg To me one of the great thrills of living comes from seeing evidence and signs of improvement. This is not confined to material things but also from indications of self-improvement. This must also be true for many of our patrons in School District No. 404 because they are making sacrifices and contri- butions to the schools that enable us to make impro- vements to our school plants and classrooms. I believe that the faculty and students, too, are im- proving methods for using our facilities. We are thankful for the geneious support from the commun- ity, and are anxious to be worthy of this sincere interest. Mr. Hamburg, exeevee rolled up busily cleans ereneel used in lettering Chamber of Commerce eagn. Fife: president df the nationally affiliated chamber, Me. Homburg served we terms.

Hanft . , , , Fifty years ago Doctor Hoffmann began a long and faithful service to the Woodland community. Over the years he has started hundreds of us on our way. We Dr. Hoffmann babies Qand, I'm sure, all of Woodland, have often been inspired by his unselfish devotion to duty. Many changes have taken place in school facilities and school life since Dr. Hoffmann first came to our town. These changes, we hope, have been made to enable our students to meet the changing conditions of society. If we all follow Dr. Hoffmann's example of under- standing, kindliness and perseverance we shall con- tinue to grow and improve. A h any aenae H I1 tell yen, -Me.

Qs-.V EiS5.aQ FACULTY Prim and proper ? Well, proper, but a more un-prim faculty than ours at Woodland would be hard to imagine. A broad background 0 f education and experience clothes the faculty with a dignity which needs no fussing over pro- priety. Interest in and happy with their work .... that sums up our teachers. KA note of regret: Mrs. Janet Gregory Wetterhus, Greg to the gals who know her best, leaves us this year to accept a position with the Longview schools. All of us join in a hearty Good Luck .l Identifying this page means starting at the top, right and tracing the course of a letter C .

Planning events which young homemakers take part in is one such outside activity. The affairs of all girls in school and their Girls' League is another. Music practice goes on day and night, for the disciplines of rhythm and sound do not come easy. Art work for the entire school system is wrapped up in the slight frame of able Mrs. Homburg, and this means long hours getting materials ready so youngsters may create' Identification for this page begins at top left and traces a backwards Holding the emblem of her girls' group, Gertrude Thomas, home - onomics instructor smiles in anticipation of National Future Homemaker Week .....

Prexy Richard Nehr is pictured at Hoot McDowell's service station where he works after school hours. Rich is noted around school for his reputation as an ex- pert on electronics. Nick Chester, Vice-prexy, enjoys his job of presiding over student council meetings. He is pictured here examining a folder on Seabeck, a summer camp for student leaders. Kay Chester finds the duties of secretary many but enjoyable. During Kay's absence as a Senate page in Olympia, Mary Forslund served as protem secretary. Assistant treasurer Rosaly Bauer performs a Chem- istry experiment for P. T.A. open house. Treasurer Jim Jolly is an old pro at balancing figures. Member-at-large Caralee Button finds that making a scrap- book of 1956-57 school activities is no small job. Might as well be comfortable!

This was the second year that the council had played host to such a meeting. Student body president, Richard Nehr, presided over the session in which eleven schools took part. A whole-hearted support was given to the city council in trying to raise funds for a foreign exchange student in this school. A two-party system of elections was again held with lots of competition for offices. With Richard Nehr leading the Green Party, and Mary Forslund, chairman for the White Party, the general campaigning was a whirlwind of excitement and clever posters. Noon tournaments were begun in April, featuring chess, checkers, ping -pong and foul shot. Mary Forslund acted as A.S. B. secretary in the absence of Kay Chester. Kay served as a senate page in Olympia for eight weeks. Officers for the year were: Richard Nehr, president, Nick Chester, vice-president: Kay Chester, secretary, Caralee Button, member-at-large, Jim Jolly, treasurer: Rosaly Bauer. assistant treasurer.

White Carnation Class Colors . .. . . Light Blue and White Class Motto. ........ We are the architects of our own future The history of the class of 57 began in 1945 when twenty-six of the current Seniors entered the first grade. Those starry eyed pupils were: Jim Blair, Lyle Bozarth, Mervin Brown, Randall Brown, Nick Chester, Chuck Feris, Walt Keisala, Rich Knight, Duane Lanphear, Duane McDowell, Rich Nehr, David Rhoades, Don Woodward, Marilyn Brianard, Brenda Button, Darlene Dettloff, Mary Forslund, Melly Gregorius, Bernadel Griffith, Annett Hamblen. Marilyn Heldreth, Audrey Kerwood, Lennea Osmanberg, Betty Reijonen, Gerry Tanner, and Judy Zybach. The event anxiously awaited was the move into the new grade school completed in lf95l. Therefore missing it by one year we entered our dream world, the seventh grade. A day off from school was awarded for selling more magazine subscriptions than our older and supposedly wiser school mates. Picnicing and swimrning was enjoyed by all at Ariel Dam. Miss DeGuire and Mr. Sienko accepted the job of advising our class which boasted 68 members. With only S98 to our credit at the beginning of our sophomore year, we set to work with vim and vigor on making money. A S40 coffeemaker was earned by selling one -hundred bottles of vanilla. Pop and candy concessions at football and basketball games, several cake sales and an after-game dance boosted our treasury to over S200 in cash by the close of the school year. Kelly green and white class sweaters were purchased and class rings were ordered in the spring. Due to construction on the new school a junior-senior play Riddle Me Riches , was jointly presented with the class of 56 . The highlight of the year was our junior prom, Stairway to the Stars. The multi-purpose room was decorated with a blue false ceiling and silver stars. Adorning the walls were black silhouettes and a large gold stair- way. Almost seniors we received our first taste of graduation while decorating for our predecessors, the class of n56u. The first project of our senior year was the annual senior ball. The theme Mardi Gras was brought to life by a false ceiling of red, yellow, green, blue and purple with a lighted center piece. Metallic bubbles and black masks added to the gay atmosphere. Senior portraits, cards, and announcements marked the first big step toward graduation. Mr. Hanft measured us for our blue caps and gowns in early March. In mid-April, our class play, Professor How Could You? was the first such to be presented in the new auditorium. May I0 marked the first informal get-together of the class since we were sophomores. A wiener roast was held on the banks of the Columbia River and a dance afterwards was enjoyed in the multi -purpose room. Putting all cares aside May I7 was spent at Mt. Hood on our senior day. The education side of the trip was a tour through the Army Air Base in Portland. Amid tears and smiles we graduated May 31, leaving with many happy memories. ci...

JUNIORS OUTSTANDING by Genny Kortes Things have happened to juniors since the close of school last year. For the first time since 1951, the juniors won the inter-class basketball championship, upsetting the seniors 46-42. The class of 58'! also slaughtered the faculty 45-29, thereby winning the all- school championship. Aided by advisors Charles Mason, summer-married Mrs. Janet Wetterhus, and co-chairmen Gloria Tanner and Ken Carrico, the annual prom, Under the Sea, held March 30, was voted an artis- tic success. Black lights shining on fluor- escent sketches of mermaids added a dis- tinctive touch to the spring formal. ASB secretary Kay Chester, Novem- ber Girl-of-the-month, was selected by State Senator Don Tally as a page at the recent session of the state legislature. She arrived home after an eight weeks stay in Olympia reporting on many inter- esting events.

This quartet led the pep section to win a third pep trophy at the annual basketball jamboree in Longview. Four of the nine members of the Nonette were juniors: Pat Peltola, Nina Fisher, Genny Kortes, and Ramona Ray. Ron Albrecht and Genny Kortes were chosen assistant editors of the Beaverton- ian and the Wocowa. Money was raised by selling pickles and cake, sponsoring an after-game dance in basketball season, and selling pop at football games. Other events of the year included an October sock-dance , sponsoring Pat Moore and Peltola as princesses in the race for Wocowa queen, and purchasing class rings in October.

It was pouring cats and dogs March 14, but rain didn't dampen their spirits and loads upon loads of equipment were moved quickly and efficiently. Over half the band participated in the solo and ensemble contest, February 9, and as a result the french horn trio was picked as the outstanding brass ensemble. Members of the trio were Margaret Ferguson, Cathy Thomas, and Gerry Gregorius. The annual Christmas Program and the Spring Concert drew good audiences and gave the band their only public concert appearances before the Band Festival held April 27. The sale of magazines was a new project undertaken by the music makers in an effort to raise money for new uniforms. Graduation marked the band's last public appearance of the year.

The accomplishment of these aims is a never-ending task. Attending senai-annual conferences of high school girls from all over Southwest Washington is one way of finding out how girls in other schools work at similar jobs. One such was held last fall at Mossyrock. Specialists in care of skin and hair spoke to the membership. Helping freshman girls get in the swim of high school life was fostered by a big and little sister movement whereby each senior girl was assigned a younger girl as her little sister . Social activities included a picnic in the fall, an informal big and little sister dinner in the win- ter and graduation exercises for little sister at the final May meeting. At this meeting Jun ior girls fnext year's seniorsl draw names of incoming eighth grade girls for their next year's little sisters . Big social activities for all girls are traditionally the TOLO dance, held early in March, and the Mother's Tea'1 held in mid-May. The King and I was this year's theme for this annual March affair. As usual, the girls paid .... the greater the circumference of the king's head, the more the admission. Mothers of all girls and mothers of senior boys were especially honored at the tea, held May l0 -Eikikimiilii ' f E.

A bowling tournament in Longview gave the girls an extra activity for those who could take part. Betty Hoefs, Judy M. Hansen, Elaine Saari, Linda Schurman, and Patsy Peltola were the winning team of the tournament. Sponsoring an after game dance was their only money making project for the year. In March the basketball teams were defeated by Battleground, 19-10 and ll-9. This was the second consecutive year the two clubs met for such a battle. The first week end in May was spent sunbathing and enjoying the recreational facilities of Seaside. Sophomore, Junior, and Senior members of the club made the trip with their mothers and advisor Mrs. Wetterhus.

Early in the first semester, the F.F.A. was strengthened by the initiation of 13 new members. Parliamentary Procedure contests were entered by the F. F.A. and the boys also showed an excellent display of dairy and beef cattle at the fairs last summer. On February 19, the F. F. A. presented their banquet, flocally known as the best one of its kind all yearl and Honorary Farmer degrees were bestowed on J. George Homburg and Wayne Bozarth. As this yearbook goes to press the committees are starting to plan this year's farm tractor demonstra- tion day and the annual camping trip to Lake Merrill in early June. Finally, on April 2, the year was highlighted when they received a new Ferguson tractor. Bob Zumstein was chosen as the delegate to represent the chapter at the State F.F.A.

BEAVERETTES PEP GROUP WINS TROPHY Proving themselves to be a high spirited group, the pep club walked away with the honor of being the outstanding rooting section at the basketball jamboree, December 4. The pep trophy was also won in 1949 and 1954 by the Woodland pep staff. As a money raising project the club sponsored a dance after the Ridgefield basket- ball game. Duane West and Pat Moore were crowned King and Queen of Hearts. Joyce Johnson was crowned Football Queen in the Fall, by Bill Reese, Lettermen's Club presi- dent. At this time megaphones were presented to members of the football team by Beaverette president, Bernadel Griffith. Pompoms were sold at football games to promote more spirit and clever skits were put on for all the pep assemblies. A successful Chile feed was given February 22 honoring all lettermen and basket- ball players. For the first time in five years an initiation was held for incoming members. Officers for the year were: Bernadel Griffith, president, Donna Lease, vice presi- dent, Melly Gregorius, secretary, Beverly Dettloff, treasurer, Marilyn Brainard, point chairman, Brenda Button, student council representative.

CLUB BOYS KEEP BUSY With Bill Reese as president, the W Club proved themselves to be busy beavers. Sponsoring many activities throughout the year the club managed to boost their treasury which dropped to a low mark last year after aiding the student council in purchasing a public address system. One of their undertakings was to sponsor an aftergame dance and to pro- vide programs for all home football games. They had a father-son banquet for the lettermen and members ofthe football squad. During basketball season, they put up an identification board with the names and numbers of all the Beaver A squad members and their opponents The sale of ice cream slices was a money making project for the third consea cutive year. On April 6, the W wearers sponsored a smoker with the LaCenter letter men club. Members of the clubs competed in the annual smoker which was held on a home and home basis.

CITIZEN AWARDS Selection System Improved Pictured here are the boys and girls selected by faculty vote for each six-weeks' grading period. Each student chosen is noted around school for conscien- tious effort. In order to give all the students and teachers of Woodland High School a better understanding of the qualities upon which the faculty committee made their selections, a committee made up of faculty members and students met frequently for better than two mon- ths. The committee QDuane West, Melly Gregorius, Donna Lease, Carole Brown, Mrs. Poulsen, Mr. Mason, Mr. Stroud, and Mr. Sienko, chairman, shared ideas regarding criteria for judging boys and girls considered for this high award. The qualities or characteristics of those excelling in ClTIZENSHlP, SCHOLARSHIP, AND LEADER- SHIP were selected as the basis for giving the Citizenship award. The two honored citizens for the fifth six weeks grading period receive their awards from music instructor Charles Mason at special assembly held in the Auditorium. 1 f -www? am?

Both staff and Mrs. Gimmey were new to Nick, who had served his junior year apprenticeship under Mr. Stroud. Boy, this looked like real work. One familiar sight stood out as the editor looked around the commercial room where this year's work would be carried on .... the old beaten down Model E mimeo- graph was still with the Beavertonian. For a month the settling down period went along much as with other newspaper staffs. Finally the first edition came off the smudgy, ancient machine. Hooray! Things were looking up. Then Mrs. Gimmey decided that family life took precedent over school work and left the department to take up the job of rearing a family. Miss Stark, replacement for the departing Mrs. Gimmey, took over as adviser to the Beavertonian on Nov. l, Slight, gentle, camera-shy Miss Stark entered into her work cheerfully and vigorously, spending hours after school familiarizing her- self with the new routine. Under the leadership of veteran Nick and adviser Miss Stark the newspaper noted a new feature this yearg Letters to the Editor. Not yet extremely popular, the letters have been thoughtful and helpful, according to Chester. Here we have some of the after-school workers who vitally effect getting out the paper on time. Immediately beneath this caption Bernie Griffith cranks on the old mimeograph handle while Brains Brainard slip-sheets the pages: next, smiling Lennea Osmanberg pecks away at a stencil, ever-ready correction fluid at her handl in lower corner editor Nick Chester pores over dummy shear. for latest copy ,... one thing that will not stretch or shrink: type: just above picture of Nick is one showing a dual conference regarding a thorny sports question. . .assistant Ron Al- brecht and reporter Don Taylor argue about the merits of baseball varaua track as builders of character. ,e dw Qi 2 SOCIAL WHIRL DANCE DECORATIONS ADMIRED All underclassmen look forward to the time when they will present their Junior Prom and Senior Ball.

SENIOR PLAY COMEDY HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL Even with the late installation of seats in the auditorium and difficul- ty in building new stage flats, the senior class managed to present a highly successful play, a comedy in three sen mauled, Prom-wr, How Could You ? The cast diligently attended rehearsals despite the competition of jack-hammers and stage crews, who from necessity, scheduled per- formances at the same time. In one week's time seats were installed and the stage sets created and recreated. This was the first public attraction to be presented in the new audi- torium and matinee and evening performances were well attended. The senior class treasury was swelled by a S250 profit.

Crucial Games Lost by Close Margin In spite of ten returning lettermen, and rousing opening victory over Ridgefield, the Beavers dropped crucial games by close margins and wound up with three wins and six losses for the season. Lack of weight up the middle probably was responsible for opponents getting through, as well as greenclad warriors inability to break through consistently.

No matter how one adds up the season's efforts, it always comes out that on Woodwa hot nights the Beavers turned in wins. . . even against allegedly topdrawer opponents. Don did not do the job by himself, but when he was off, so was the whole team, and occasionally with dire consequences. After an easy triumph over Toutle Lake to begin the season, Woodland drew potent Castle Rock as its opponent for the Longview Athletic Club jamboree .... and, much to everyone's amazement, proceeded to wax the Rockets leach fray was for a two-quartei periodl. Then as league play began it seemed as if the Beavers just couldn't win. . .except an occasional king's X contest. But in mid-January the worm turned and as Kalama's Chinooks came to town, the gl and white gave them a lesson in how to do it. Two week's later, after suffering a pasting at the hands of the same Chinooks whom they had beaten earlier, Woodland took on Ridgefield, already winner of the Trico cro' Result at final buzzer found the underdog Beavers victors by two points. The B's had an even rougher season and wound up near the cellar in the Jayvee di' sion of the league. Lost to next year's squad will be graduating Nick Chester, Don Woodward, Dave Rhoades, Duane McDowell and Bob Pettit. Newspaper Allstar selections saw Don Woodward rated on the Trico First team and Nick Chester receive honorable mention.

BEAVERS DARKHORSE TEAM As the WOCOWA goes to pressn, the 1957 Beaver basebz team is in second place in the northern division of the T league. Wins over Kalama and Cathlamet and a loss to Castle Rock flast year's division champsj are recorded far. A darkhorse outfit this year, should the green and whi find their collective batting eyes, a title is not too far beyond the realm of possibility. Good pitching by senior Don Woodward and sophomore Ken Bays has been turned in on occasion in practice gan this season, but in only one league game has the pitchinl been topflight. In winning 3-0 from Cathlamet, Woodwa hurled a one-hitter, striking out 17. His mates obtainec runs, two more than needed. If the Beavers can win from Kalama away from home and Castle Rock on the Woodland diamond, there is a strong possibility they may go on to win the division titl1 Lost to next year's nine will be seniors Blair, Rhoade Woodward, Chester, Hall, Feris and Englert.
