ASB BIG WHEELS RESPONSIBLE JOB REQUIRES WORK Being a student-elected ASB officer is a responsible job which requires lots of hard work, but the big wheels of 1956-57 all agree that it's lots of fun too. 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! The five officers below make up the executive board ofthe student council.
