FOREWORD
Music, in our world of today, plays a role more important than we
realize, for we have learned to accept music with an unconsciousness
which is peculiar to humans in many things.
Music has been styled to fit into nearly any type of amusement,
adding a delightful richness to whatever it may supplement.
There are all types of music and nearly all of us have at least one
type which we enjoy. All of the great variety of music that we have
practically at our fingertips, or at least within our limits, is the result of
our enjoyment of music.
American enterprise has always been very quick to jump upon any-
thing which the public demands or enjoys, and present it to them (of
course at their own advantage). From this the public receives great
benefit.
Today we have music! Music to calm our jumpy nerves, music to
relax our aching bodies, music to ease our many worries, and music
to produce enjoyment immeasurable. For this we should be thankful,
and may there always be music for the pleasure and expression of
mankind.
DEDICATION
To none greater could we dedicate our 1944 Sammamish than to our
men who believe in giving their lives that we may have and continue
to have such things as the freedom for which our forefathers fought.
Surely we could be no more proud than in our own men who bear
our own colors and fight our own battles, than to acknowledge and, if
possible, add what meager amount we possibly can to the great glory
which is due them.
They will come out victorious, these men who are so desperately
waging battle against nations which no longer allow their children to
have such things as freedom of thought. But this victory will not come
without sacrifices — sacrifices which are so great, that only few of them
can be imagined.
So we must, here at home, do everything we can to show that we
are preserving that for which our men fight.
We can only hope that we will make our every action such that it
will help give our fighting men some of the inspiration and courage
necessary to carry on their duties.
Me^iaae
To you, high school student, the nation has given great opportunities. From you
this same nation expects a ready willingness to accept arduous duties and solemn
responsibilities. Our country calls upon you, at this hour of crisis, to step forth to de-
fend the American heritage of freedom and liberty from the attacks of the enemies
from the East, from the West, and from within our own midst.
Because our fathers built so well, we became the envy of other nations who now
seek to destroy us.
From military and civilian services come the calls to you to be well prepared for
hard work. Physically, you must build bodily strength to withstand and endure any
hardship that may come. Mentally you are expected to be keen, alert, and trained
to seriously and accurately think through all the problems that may confront you.
In you, who come from the good American homes and from our high schools, our
country expects to find a well-balanced character. In face of decisions, you should
be able to distinguish the right from the wrong, and have the courage and moral
stamina to defend and promote everything that is honorable, just, and true.
As a citizen of a Christian nation, you are expected to have the proper respect
and reverence for our great spiritual heritage, which the Christian religion has built
into our American civilization.
We hope that the Issaquah High School has contributed something that will help
you, Seniors, to find and to pursue these and all the best ideals that America will
offer to all those who honestly seek them.
To the Annual Staff, the Advisor, the advertisers, we express our congratulations,
our sincere appreciation, and thanks.
Sincerely,
A. A. MYKLAND.

As we are on the last lap of our journey through High School, we look back on
some of the highlights of each year.
After initiation and becoming accustomed to this new school life as Freshmen,
we elected as our leaders: President, Drury Pickering; Vice President, Everett Risen;
Treasurer, Bill Kiske; and Secretary, Clifford Haglund. At the beginning of the sec-
ond semester we again had an election choosing: President, Drury Pickering; Vice
President, Viola White; Treasurer, Arnold Aho; and Secretary, Mabel Sell.
In sports we were represented by Freda Stephenson in volleyball, and Joe Ton-
dreau in football.
In the All-School Play, "Apron String Revolt," Mary Lou Henry represented the
Class.
We would like to express our thanks to Miss Nelson and Mr. Dahl for their coop-
eration and advice through our first year.
As Sophomores, Henry Pedeferri was elected as President; Vice President, Ken-
neth McFarlane; Treasurer, Fay Steele, and Secretary, Drury Pickering.
The football lettermen of our Sophomore year were Joe Tondreau and Jack Chalfa.
Our girls won the championship in volleyball. Ilene Malmassari, our class volley-
ball captain, was also appointed honorary captain for the All-Star Volleyball Team.
With the aid of Miss Halpin and Mr. Morgan, our year was completed very
successfully.
As upper-classmen, our Junior leaders were: President, Hugh Thomson; Vice Presi-
dent, Charles Skoglund; Secretary, Ilene Malmassari; and Treasurer, Clark Darst.
In the All-School Play, "Mr. and Mrs. America," our class was represented by
Zelda Shepherd and Earle Zander, who played the leading roles. Viola White and
Bruce Barlow played in the supporting cast.
The girls again won the volleyball championship and six boys earned letters in
football. Joe Tondreau was chosen as next year's football captain.
The Junior Play, "Here Comes Charlie," was given on March 12, and proved to
be the most successful enterprise yet taken on by our class.
The Junior Prom was a big occasion for us. It was set in a lavish South Ameri-
can theme.
We gave a banquet at school for our Junior-Senior Feed.
Our sincerest thanks to you, Miss Hunt and Mr. Strong, for your fine assistance.
On September 7, 1943, we began our last year at the Issaquah High School.
We chose as our officers: President, Dean Bergstrom; Vice President, Mabel Sell;
Secretary, Bruna Simi; and Treasurer, Charles Skoglund.
The first big event of our Senior Year was our Ball. A picturesque football theme
was carried out.
For the third consecutive year we won the volleyball championship. Six members
from our class were chosen to be on the All-Star Volleyball team.
During our four years in high school, we were well represented in sports, dramatics,
journalism, school government, and scholastic honor.
To Miss Owen and Mr. Seaman we give our thanks and appreciation for the help
they have given us.
The grand climax of our high school career was Baccalaureate and Commence-
ment.

1+ is 1964. I, Madame Zoro, crystal gazer, am about to retire. As my last deed
I shall gaze into the crystal ball and see what has become of my schoolmates of the
I. H. S. graduating class of '44.
In the dimness, as I concentrate, visions begin to pass before me. . . .
I see a hotel in the thriving community of Preston. At the desk is the owner,
Martin Olson, arguing with his creditors, Marie Henderson and Rose De Leo. His
cigarette girl, Neva Liljemark, is frantically trying to sell cigarettes to Dean Berg-
strom, the community's leading non-smoker, in order to pay off the hotel mortgage.
Next I see a South American night club. Two very prim old maids, Ruth Sund-
quist and Betty Ank, wander in, thinking it is a Ladies' Aid Bazaar, where they were
to meet Drury Pickering, club president. Kenny McFarlane, the head waiter, is flirt-
ing with Clarice Ellis, the famous blues singer.
In Alaska, Charlie Skoglund is working on an invention to make synthetic hair for
wigs, from chipped ice. His able assistant is Rosemary Strafford. Anxiously waiting
for him to perfect the invention are June Warden and Russell Holmes, who are both
bald.
Back in San Francisco, I see Henry Pediferri selling pencils on a busy corner to
customers Margaret Wilson and Jim Lewis, a famous song writing team, because of
their first great hit —"Uh! Uh!", Dale Larson has learned to play the piano, and
accompanies Mae Johnson's rendition of the song.
Joe Tondreau and Arnold Aho are still in Sing Sing, having failed to pay their
income tax in 1944. By this time, women have become guards at the penitentiaries;
Mary Ann Erickson and Maxine Marshall are no exception.
I see that Earle Zander has gone into the heart of Africa to "get away from it
all." At present he is dictating a book entitled "The Sins of the Younger Genera-
tion," to his private secretary, Colleen Campbell. Fae Steele and Pat Soveriegn are
establishing a pop stand nearby.
In Madison Square Gardens Alfred Sutter is about to defend his boxing title. His
second second, Marilyn Bush, is advising him, while his first second, Bruce Barlow, is
trying to explain to llene Malmassari why he stepped on her hat while entering the
ring.
Mabel Seil is running for the Women's Club presidency in the Fiji Islands. Her
campaign slogan is, "A Leap Year every year!" Staunch supporters are Bruna Simi,
Donell Morris, and Clark Darst.
In Reno, I see Shirley Brand, Leota Friend, and Enid Burman discussing their for-
mer husbands. They had bagged four, three, and six, respectively. All were looking
with high hopes to the country's most eligible bachelor, Elmer Watson.
Everett Risen, the nation's heart-throb, is currently playing in "The Rover Boy
Comes Home." Publicity manager and agent is Jeanne Thomson, a mathematical
genius incognito. Chief admirer is Jean Sundquist, who chases him daily to get his
autograph.
Don Reeder, never believinq the newspapers that the war is over, is in an aircraft
warning tower on the Pacific Coast, watchinq for planes. Either he is really trying to
help the war effort, or he is still hiding out from his draft board. . . .
The picture fades. All of the class have been accounted for. Thus Madama Zoro
retires to become Viola White, only to use her crystal gazing powers to contact the
class for reunion days.
[15]
In September, 1941, we entered Issaquah as "Frosh." After getting used to the
ways of high school, we elected our class officers for the year: President, Alec Mac-
Lurg; Vice President, Alec Bakamus; Secretary, Betty Sutter; and Treasurer, Rae Cas-
tagno. Miss Nelson and Mr. Dahl advised us through our first year.
In sports we were represented by Dorothy Dolleman earning a letter in girls'
basketball, by Bob Corra in football, and by Betty Jo Isotalo in volleyball.
Those making the honor roll in our Freshman year were Edith Brand, Nettie Lou
Branson, Bertha Kuharic, Vivian Strawhun, Betty Sutter, Helen Yates, Phyllis Stover,
Vern Anderson, Angelo Boni, Jimmy Erickson, Alec MacLurg, Richard Saulsman, Wal-
ter Watkins, and Robert Zeller. Betty Jo Isotalo, Betty Sutter, and Jimmy Erickson
made enough points for the Honor Society.
Chuck Thurston showed the Freshman class stage ability in the All-School Play,
"Happy Days."
Being a little more accustomed to school, we selected as our class officers the fol-
lowing: President, Alec Bakamus; Vice President, Bob Webb; Secretary, Betty Sutter;
and Treasurer, Vivian Strawhun. Our advisors were Miss Palmer and Mr. Fallsrom.
Representing us in sports this year were Barbara Hart and Betty Jo Isotalo in
girls' volleyball, and Alec Bakamus, Bob Corra, Don Jones, Leo Morris, Ellsworth Pick-
ering, and Art Wallace in football.
Those making the honor roll this year were Nettie Lou Branson, Dorothy Edwards,
Bertha Kuharic, Vivian Strawhun, Betty Sutter, Helen Yates, Vern Anderson, and Jimmy
Erickson.
Vivian Strawhun and Phyllis Stover took part in the All-School Play, "Mr. and Mrs.
America." For our assembly this year we showed what some of our members would
be doing ten years from now.
The stamp drive between our class and the Freshmen proved a great success,
with a total amount for a six-week period of $645.60. The Freshman class won, so
the Sophomores gave them a congratulation party.
Due to the war conditions we held our class picnic at the end of the year in the
park in Issaquah.
This year as full-fledged upper-classmen, we elected as our class officers: Presi-
dent, Rae Castagno; Vice President, Bob Corra; Secretary, Betty Sutter; and Treas-
urer, Ellsworth Pickering, with Miss Hunt and Mr. Frohs as our advisers. Many thanks
to them for their help.
Our lettermen this year were Barbara Hart, Bertha Kuharic, Rae Castagno, and
Roberta Jones, who won Their letters in volleyball. Ellsworth Pickering, Louie Krall,
Art Wallace, James Malmassari, and Jim Buchanan received letters in football.
Those making the honor roll in their Junior year were Edith Brand, Nettie Lou
Branson, Bertha Kuharic, Vivian Strawhun, Betty Sutter, Helen Yates, and Richard
Saulsman.
For the third consecutive year our girls won the "Lollipop Drive" by being the
first to get credit for the full payment of their dues. As lollipops weren't available,
the girls were treated with home-made fudge.
Our Junior year has been our busiest and probably most enjoyable that we have
yet spent in dear old I. H. S. We can only hope that our remaining year will bring
a happy completion of high school life.

In September of 1942, some seventy frightened and bewildered Freshmen entered
the portals of Issaquah High School to begin their four years of high school life.
Our first major event was the acquisition of our lockers, and after much concen-
tration, we managed to open them for the first time.
Of course we had to be initiated, which meant we had to get up in front of the
entire student body. We sang a few songs and gave some yells, accompanied by the
booing sophomores, juniors, and seniors. It didn't take too long to get used to the
high school routine, and the life here soon became familiar to us.
For our officers in our Freshman year, we elected as President, Donald Spagel;
Vice-President, Maxine Thomson; Secretary, Paul Johnson; and Treasurer, Betty Rae

Mr. Dahl and Miss Nelson, as our Freshman class advisors, watched over us and
gave us the direction and advice we needed to help solve the problems with which
we were faced. Many thanks to them.
Ann Garbe represented our class in the All-School Play, "Mr. and Mrs. America."
The following pupils from the Freshman class had high enough grade averages to
made the honor roll during the first year: Tina Brand, Irene Johnson, Frances Sprague,
Henry Kuharic, Lennart Larson, and Donald Spagel.
A great number of Freshmen showed their fine sports ability and sportsmanship
during the year by turning out for the various sports. Victor Watkins received a let-
ter for being manager during the football season. Maxine Thomson, Edith Johnson,
and Dorothy Blosl received letters in volleyball. Ed Hammond received one in basket-
ball.
There was a high school vaudeville this year, and members of the Freshman class
participated with great energy, showing various talents which proved to be very fine.
We considered our first year a successful one for, among other things, we had
become experienced in the ways of high school life.
As Sophomores, we came back as experienced high school students, anxious to be-
gin a new year. We elected as officers: President, Jackie Jo Favini; Vice-President,
Winlock Pickering; Treasurer, Rose Marie Gallagher; and Secretary, Donald Spagel.
We were represented in football by Bill Lakey, who won a letter. Three Sopho-
more girls won volleyball letters: Edith Johnson, Mickie Lortie, and Ethel Isotalo.
During the first semester quite a number from our class made the honor roll.
Those having the high scholastic averages were: Doreen Barlow, Tina Brand, Lorna
Dorman, Mamie Dorman, Patricia Garner, Jacqueline Lawrence, Charlotte Mykland,
Frances Sprague, Joyce Wheeler, George Baan, Paul Johnson, Henry Kuharic, and
Lennart Larson.
Our Sophomore class was active in a number of things this year. During the
March of Dimes some of the girls built a wishing-well which they placed in the hall
for contributions from the student body. The students put in their dime and made a
wish. Twenty-eight dollars was taken in by this method. This was a very fine contri-
bution to the drive.
The girls sent two subscriptions of the Reader's Digest to servicemen. We are
sure the magazines will be appreciated by the servicemen to whom they were sent.
Many thanks go to Mr. Botts and Mrs. Glascock, our class advisors, for their
excellent and deeply appreciated guidance.

On September fourth of the year 1943, some eighty Freshmen entered the halls of
the Issaquah High School for the first time. However, the boys were soon lured out-
side by some of the upper classmen, and before they realized what had happened, they
were clamoring from the depths of the nearby creek. From that time on, the "green"
Freshmen began to quickly ripen, their predicament being somewhat memorable.
We received our formal initiation within the first two weeks of school. We were
led up onto the stage before an assembly of all the students and there performed to
the best of our ability with school songs and yells. A helpful acquaintance was also
formed with the President of the Student Body, Drury Pickering.
After we became full-fledged "Frosh," we held a class meeting and elected our
officers for the coming year. Jack Seil was elected President; Jack Lane, Treasurer; John
Buchanan, Vice President; and Betty Hagerup, Secretary. Mr. Dahl and Mrs. Allen have
been our advisers throughout the year, and we have indeed appreciated their help
and guidance, with which they have been so generous.
In the Third War Loan Drive, the Freshmen demonstrated their importance for the
first time. The entire school participated in this drive, and competition was keen be-
tween the classes as to which class could make the largest purchase of War Bonds and
Stamps. The contest was won by the Freshmen, who far out-purchased any of the
other classes, thus establishing for themselves some importance in the school. Athleti-
cally, we were very well represented this year. John Buchanan merited a letter for
his ability in playing football. Three girls, Dolores Kinnune, Betty Nielson, and Betty
Sprague, earned letters in volleyball.
Those who made grades high enough to make the Honor Roll in their first year
were Grace Hansen, Mary Hansen, Kay Kiebert, Ylova Lacey, Lorraine Starheim, Bob-
bie Davies, Eugene Reitz, and Dick Swanson.
In the first part of April the girls of our Freshman Class gave a party for the eighth
grade girls to introduce them to the life which they will next year be a part of. The
party went off very successfully.
Now we have completed our first year of high school life, and we feel a little thrill
when we think of what fun it has been to make this year a successful one, and to know
that we are now full-fledged high school students. We look forward with hope to
making all of our remaining years here as successful as this one has been.

Because of crowded conditions in the grade school, it was found more satisfac-
tory to let the eighth grade occupy two rooms in the high school building. This year
is the first year that this has taken place, and under the direction of Mr. Wallace and
Miss McBain the class seems to be enjoying it.
Although they don't participate in any of the high school activities or attend any
of our assemblies, they seem to be getting used to high school routine by getting
better acquainted with the subjects that will be offered to them and by acquiring
knowledge of the building in general.
We do hope that this year in the high school will be a great help to the eighth
grade in the success of their high school life.

Our school activities have, this year, been
affected by the unnatural conditions of the
day. Some have been completely cut out
while others have risen in importance.
It is with these changes in mind that we

The governing of the student body, this year, has been a very important duty. As
in nearly everything else, there have been many more worries and thoughtful decisions
to be arrived at than there have been in other years. Clear heads and quick thinking
minds have been required from the members of this body, and indeed the requirements
were well met.
Under the capable leadership of President Drury Pickering, and the advice of Mr.
Dahl, the Board of Control has met regularly throughout the year and has supervised
all of the important school activities.
Our student body government represents the main ideal for which we are today
fighting—democracy. For each year the students vote into office, the officers which
they think will most capably serve them, and each class elects its representatives to
this governing body. May this method of our school government long continue.
[25]
At the opening of the year the Boys' Club was faced with many difficult problems.
It was wondered if there would be any football team due to the shortage of boys. The
boys responded with such vigor, however, that three teams turned out constantly.
The success of these various problems' solutions was largely due to the capability
of the officers and the united and interested cooperation of the boys.
Voted in as officers for the year 1943-1944 were: President, Henry Pedeferri; Vice
President, Jim Bakamus; Secretary, Earle Zander; Treasurer, Alfred Sutter; and Ser-
geant-at-Arms, Donald Jones. Jim Bakamus and Donald Jones enlisted in the services
of their country at the beginning of the year and their tasks were taken over by Art
Wallace and Louie Krall respectively.
The annual Smoker was held on Thanksgiving Eve, November 24, with I 2 bouts be-
ing featured. It was a huge success with the net returns amounting to $160. This
money was used in the purchase of warm-up suits for the basketball team.
A bond and stamp drive was held between the Girls' Club and the Boys' Club to
see who was to pay for the Christmas treat. The boys didn't respond as well as did
the girls and therefore furnished the treat.
The date for the Boys' Club Dance was set for February 25. The idea was to pre-
sent a full evening of dancing for all who attended. There were no decorations and
the music was furnished by Alfred Sutter's Swing Band, alternated by a nickleodean.
A large crowd turned out and an enjoyable time was had by all.
Even working under the handicap of present day conditions, the Boys' Club man-
aged to turn in an extremely fine record this year. Striving to be of service to the
boys, to build school spirit, to boost for clean and successful athletics, and to uphold
the cleanliness, honor, and reputation of the school, the officers of the Boys' Club, led
by advisor Mr. Dahl, did a truly fine job.

The Girls' Club, composed of all the girls in the high school, had a successful year
during 1943-1944.
At the close of the year before, the officers had been chosen. Betty Ank has
proved that she was a fine choice for President, and Mary Ann Erickson supported her
ably as Vice-President. Margaret Wilson was Treasurer; Ilene Malmassari was Record-
ing Secretary; and Fae Steele was Corresponding Secretary.
The cabinet, consisting of the officers, with the following girls: Rosemary Strafford,
Shirley Brand, Barbara Hart, Dorothy Dolleman, Ann Garbe, and Dolores Kinnune, ful-
filled their duties very well.
As in every other year, there was a drawing for "big," and "little" sisters, a cus-
tom which helps new girls, and Freshmen and Sophomores to get acquainted. It also
helps establish a unity between the upper and lower classmen.
To help the "big sisters" get acquainted with their "little sisters," the girls had a
party. A good many girls attended, and quite a few teachers also came, and every-
one had a fine time. Because of the shortage of Seniors and Juniors, some "big sisters"
had two "little sisters," but that only added to the fun. Admission for each girl to the
party was a jar of fruit or vegetables, which was later given to an orphanage in Seattle.
The Juniors were the victors of this year's "Lollipop Drive," which is an incentive to
the girls to pay their dues. The girls were a little disconcerted, however, by the dis-
covery that no lollipops were obtainable. The situation was remedied by fudge made
by the cabinet members.
The Junior girls are to be complimented, for this is the third straight year they
have won this contest.
A movie, entitled "The Arkansas Traveler," with Bob Burns in the lead, was pre-
sented to the student body on February I 8. The movie, a comedy, was enjoyed by
everyone.
A dance was held in the spring and it was a great success.
[27]
The H onor Society is an incentive for the students to maintain a high scholastic
standard, and to participate in extra-curricular activities.
The function of the Honor Society is to bestow honor where honor is due.
To achieve membership a student must have earned points for their scholastic,
leadership, and service.
The first merit of achievement is the silver pin, which is awarded when the student
has earned at least forty points within two semesters. A gold pin is awarded when
an additional twenty-five points are earned within the next two semesters.
The officers for the year were: President, llene Malmassari; Vice President, Betty
Ank; Secretary-Treasurer, Betty Joe Isotalo; with Mr. Dahl as advisor.
An Honor Society member portrays a student of talent and ability with initiative
for the betterment of the school, and is an inspiration to the other students.

With the loss of a few students, due to graduation, conflicting subjects, and a few
who dropped from school, the band, with our capable director, Mr. Daniel Botts, started
a new year with thirty members.
For the first time in the history of our band an election of officers was held. The
purpose of this new idea is to insure greater cooperation among the students. The
meetings are held regularly, giving the students an opportunity to bring out new
ideas and discuss problems which may arise.
This year a pep band has been formed and has provided entertainment at the
football and basketball games, and at assemblies.
The highlights of the year for the band were marked by two concerts, one of
which was sponsored by the Orthopedic Auxiliary. Some of the outstanding selections
were: two numbers by Morton Gould, "Tropical" and "Prima Donna," and a selection
by Rimsky Korsakov Melodies arranged by Paul Yoder.
Under a merit system Mr. Botts awarded certificates for the work done in band.
The band members appreciate Mr. Daniel Botts for his splendid cooperating in mak-
ing this year a successful one.

The l-Hi-Times is the paper of the Issaquah High School, and is reflective of its
students, doctrines, activities, and general makeup. It is put out by the students who
are interested enough to transfer their creative energies into printed columns of the
paper.
Mr. Seaman is largely accredited to many splendid suggestions and to the capable
leadership which he has offered so unselfishly to the entire staff, thus allowing their
success in putting out an interesting paper with a high journalistic standard.
This year, fewer people were found to fill the jobs connected with putting out a
paper. Yet, this established a more compact unity of the group, which led to better
efficiency and a more realistic view of problems to be faced.
The people of Issaquah who have contributed to the success of the paper by their
purchase of ads are to be sincerely thanke’d.

The Annual Staff has made a striving effort this year to give the students of Issa-
quah High School an interesting and accurate book of memoirs, reflective of the life
and curricula of the students. We sincerely hope that the majority of the students will
find some enjoyment from our annual. Our annual, the I 944 Sammamish, was headed
this year by Editor Bruce Barlow and Business Manager Earle Zander. Mr. Seaman was
Advisor.
The entire staff has shown a responsibility and willing cooperation in putting out
this year's Sammamish.
Viola White, Assistant Editor, is to be highly commended on her excellent ideas
and the magical way in which she brought them into reality (generally through her
own hard work and voluminous writing). Art Editor Fae Steele did very fine and dis-
tinctive work in her very artistic way. Vivian Strawhun, head typist, quickly changed
the copy into its final form with an amazingly welcome capability and efficiency.
Charles Skoglund's knowledge of sports made him a capable Sports Editor.
Completing the staff were: Jimmy Erickson, Assistant Business Manager; Shirley
Brand and Maxine Marshall, Copy Readers; Mary Ann Erickson, Senior Representative;
Bertha Kuharic, Junior Representative; Tina Brand, Sophomore Representative; Dick
Swanson, Freshman Representative; and Pat Sovereign, Typist.

The F. F. A. is a national organization, and has members in every state of the Union,
and in Hawaii and Cuba. Our own chapter, while only four years old, has achieved
results that make it a fine example of the work done all over the country in this organi-
zation.
This year Martin Olson was chosen as President; Art Wallace, Vice-President; James
Malmassari, Secretary; Drury Pickering, Treasurer, and Louie Krall, Reporter.
Projects were about the same, the main ones being dairying, raising swine, poultry,
and truck crops. Poultry projects were especially high, ranging from I 500 to 40 hens.
Altogether the boys sold $1 1,700 worth of produce.
Activities were initiation, a dance, a public speaking contest, two radio programs,
and potato judging teams.

The School Boy Patrol has been working for the safety and well-being of the stu-
dents at the Issaquah schools for the past 14 years in its successful and viligent patrol
of the main intersections in Issaquah.
In the past few years the duties of this organization have fallen wholly upon the
grade school students. The boys are given a picnic each spring by the State Highway
Patrol, in reward for their highly appreciated duties. Supervision of the group is headed
by the State Highway Patrol.

The librarians, under the advisoryship of Mrs. Venstrom, did a fine job this year in
making our library a pleasant place to study.
They assist us, during our study periods, in finding information from reference
books.
Some of their duties are checking books in and out, keeping the shelves neat and
orderly — making it much easier for those trying to find a book.
They also shelve new books, and keep a record of every book so that all books
may stay in circulation.
During study periods the librarians see that the library is a quiet and orderly room
for those who want to study.
During the year they had several meetings to form new rules for bettering the care
of the Library.

The girls who donate their time to work in the bookroom are highly appreciated
by the students.
The girls were chosen at the beginning of the year and, under Mr. Dahl's super-
vision, have kept a neat, courteous, and efficient place of business.
All of the available school supplies were offered for sale to the students in the
morning and during the lunch hour.
The girls have gained much useful experience through their work in the bookroom.
They have learned much in the art of general clerking.

The only school play of the season, "Act Your Age," was presented in the High
School Auditorium on April 21 by the Sen'or Class.
Angy and Jerry, two fourteen-year-old girls, were played by Donell Morris and
Patricia Sovereign. Two sailors, the girls' chief interests, were played by Clark Darst
(Jim) and Earle Zander (Gadget). Commander Stone, who kept the sailors hopping
with the aid of his daughter, Sandra, was played by Bruce Barlow, while the role of
Sandra was played by Fae Steele. Cora (Clarice Ellis), the house maid and a wrestler
on the side, caused much action with her wrestling partner, Helga (Viola White), who
was a professional. Rosemary Strafford played the part of the snappy little Western
Union girl.
This rollicking comedy was enjoyed by both the high school and grade school in
two afternoon matinees, and by a huge crowd of townspeople at the evening per-
formance.

This page has been dedicated to Patricia Sovereign to express in a small way the
pride and admiration of the whole student body for the great honor which she has
bestowed upon our whole high school. She was awarded first place in the state of
Washington as a contestant in the John Paul Jones Oratorical Contest sponsored by
the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
Patricia, commonly known as Pat, won a series of three contests altogether. It
began with the elimination contest within the school itself. The next contest, in
which Pat received top honors, was held in Renton where she spoke against nine other
contestants from the public schools of King, Snohomish, and Kitsap counties. In her
final victory, Pat contested against two other winners—the winners of the Seattle Pub-
lic Schools and the private schools of the state. This gave her the honor of being the
champion orator of the State of Washington in the high school division and warranted
her a trip to Los Angeles, California. Here she competed in the National Regional
Contest, where she won third place.
We are all extremely proud of Pat's achievements and hope that she will always be
as successful in any future enterprise in which she may engage herself.

Issaquah had its most successful football season in twelve years to become the
champion team of the Lakeside League.
At the beginning of the season it looked doubtful if there would be football. A
number of boys, however, were interested. With a comparatively small squad of
eighteen men, including seven returning lettermen, the season began.
Led by Captain Joe Tondreau, one of the greatest fullbacks ever to wear the
purple and gold of Issaquah High School, Coach Cliff Johnson's Issaquah Indians won
every league game, losing but one practice game during the entire season.
There were three outstanding games. First, against Bothell, it seemed as if either
team mght win, both being in a scoring position many times. Issaquah won by a
touchdown. The Kirkland game was played before the largest crowd to attend a foot-
ball game at Issaquah in years. Up until that time Issaquah and Kirkland were both
leading the league, neither one having been defeated or tied. Again the Indians pulled
through by a 27 to 14 score. Probably the hardest game to play was the last game
of the season with Overlake. There was a let-down in excitement after the Kirkland
game, but the Indians proved themselves to be a good team by defeating the Wol-
verines, 12 to 0.
Those who received football letters were: Joe Tondreau, Art Wallace, Jim Mal-
massari, Earle Zander, Ellsworth Pickering, Louis Krall, Don Jones, Everett Risen, Henry
Pediferri, Drury Pickering, Don Reeder, Jim Buchanan, Bill Lakey, John Buchanan, and
Martin Olson.
In previous years an All-Valley team was chosen by the players and coaches at a
banquet. This year an All-Valley team was not chosen due to wartime food and travel
problems. If one had been chosen, Joe Tondreau, Art Wallace, Henry Pediferri, Drury
Pickering and Jim Buchanan were virtually certain to be named in that mythical All-Star
team.
Mr. Johnson has been a great coach. In his first year as head coach of our school
he did a grand job of holding a highly co-ordinated championship team from a group
of largely inexperienced players.
Our most successful season was undoubtedly due to the excellent team spirit dis-
played by the entire squad. Although the team had several individual stars, not once
was there the least sign of lack of team play. The season and the championship that
it brought was a tribute to the cooperative efforts of the entire school.

Despite the fact that Issaquah's basketball team this year was not a winning one,
Coach Cliff Johnson's boys were good competition for the opposing teams.
The team, composed of three Juniors and two Seniors, had the heighth, but they
did not seem to be able to get the ball into the basket.
A handicap to the team was the loss of Joe Tondreau, who joined the Navy in the
mid-term of his Senior year.
The returning lettermen this season were: Dean Bergstrom, Kenneth McFarlane,
Jim Erickson, Art Wallace, Drury Pickering, and Ellsworth Pickering.
The most outstanding player this season was Art Wallace. His speed and his abil-
ity to dribble the ball past his opponents will be remembered by those who saw him
in action. Dean Bergstrom was dependable because he was a steady player and a
good shot. Drury Pickering was noted for his fighting spirit and the way he went in
after the ball. Jim Buchanan, who was the tallest man on the team, could be de-
pended upon to get the ball off the backboard. Ellsworth Pickering, another tall player,
was a steady, dependable man — cool under fire.
Although Kenneth McFarlane, Jim Erickson, and Earle Zander were smaller than
the regular team, they showed their ability to handle the ball and make baskets.
Besides the letters awarded to the nine men mentioned above, George Baan re-
ceived a manager's letter.
Issaquah totaled 140 points during the season, our opponents 163, and we aver-
aged 23.3 points per game to our opponents' 27.1. Had we scored at least 30 points
each game we would have won all but one. On the average, two more field goals
per game would have given us every game.
We hope that next season's basketball team [with 4 returning lettermen) will go
right to the top of the league.

Baseball season opened with a very large turnout of boys. It seemed that the
shortage of men didn't affect either the amount who turned out, or the spirit with
which the team played.
The returning lettermen this year were: Dean Bergstrom, Charlie Skoglund, Ed
Hammond, Vern Anderson, and Angelo Boni.
The team this year consisted of a grand group of boys, working for a goal in
sportsmanship and always honoring the name of Issaquah High. Pitcher Dean Berg-
strom was known for his tricky southpaw pitching and his calm appearance. Catcher
Art Wallace will always be remembered for his good sportsmanship and for his steady
batting ability. First base was played by Ed Hammond, who was always on the alert
and an excellent batter. Charlie Skoglund played second base and proved his worth
as a consistent infielder. Ledo Malmassari, playing shortstop, proved to be an up and
coming Freshman who will go places in baseball. Third base was well taken care of
by Bob Corra, who also did well at the bat. Angelo Boni proved himself a very
worthy right fielder. Centerfield was well covered by Bob Zeller, a boy who always
had his eye on the ball and is remembered for his never complaining attitude. Jack
Seil is also another up and coming Freshman who did very good at left field.
The whole team, under the able coaching of "Cliff" Johnson, has done well this
year and is well deserving of any credit which may be given them.

The track team this year was very short of boys, but those who did turn out were
filled with determination to do their best, which was proved in their first track meet
in which they acquired 25 points — a very good score for so few representatives.
The most promising member of the team this year was Jim Buchanan, who, in one
track meet, earned more than one-half of the points received. Of those who turned
out, each had an excellent record all of his own. Earle Zander held honors in the 880-
yard run. John Buchanan did the 220-yard run and was a good pole vaulter. Ed Ton-
dreau ran the 100-yard dash, and was noted for his ability on the low hurdles. Johnny
Wilson was well known for the 880-yard run. Dean Bergstrom was our high jumper and
pole vaulting champion. Paul Johnson was the capable handler of the mile run. Kenny
McFarlane did a fine job doing the broad jump, and Jim Buchanan was our repre-
sentative for the 440-yard run, the 100-yard dash, and the shot put.

This year's girls' volleyball season opened during the month of September. After
many hard-fought battles the Seniors came out on top. this being their third consecu-
tive year as champions in this sport. The other teams provided stiff competition for
the title holders.
Mrs. Glascock, as coach, selected an all-star team from the girls turning out. The
members of the honorary team were chosen for their sportsmanship, cooperation, abil-
ity to play, consistency of attendance, and because they were inspirational leaders.
llene Malmassari was chosen honorary captain of this all-star team, both for her
outstanding performance during the season, and for her fine sportsmanship.
The following girls were awarded letters: Mary Ann Erickson, Viola White, Bruna
Simi, Mae Johnson, Shirley Brand, Roberta Jones, Rae Castagno, Barbara Hart, Bertha
Kuharic, Edith Johnson, Mickie Lortie, Ethel Isatalo, Betty Sprague, Dolores Kinnune,
and Betty Nielson.
Ann Garbe, as Girls' Athletic Manager, did a very fine job, with Martha Koski as
her able assistant.
Mrs. Glascock, our instructor in sports, is to be commended for her helpful atti-
tude. The time and effort she put forth in helping the girls is appreciated by all of
them. It was she who helped to make turnout a great deal of fun for the girls.

Girls' basketball season opened in January with Mrs. Glascock coaching a large
turnout of girls.
A few practice games were held before the regular games were played. At the
first regular game the Sophomores emerged victorious over the Freshmen, 12-6, and
the Seniors won over the Juniors, 9-0.
At the second game the Juniors won over the Freshmen, 17-9, and the Seniors won
a game with the Sophomores, 12-0.
In the next game the Freshmen and the Juniors lost to the Seniors and the Sopho-
mores all tied for the championship.
In the fourth and fifth games the Sophomores and Juniors were victorious. The
Juniors beat the Seniors, 12-7, and the Freshmen, 23-8, and the Sophomores beat the
Freshmen, 40-18, and the Seniors, 21-13. This left the Seniors, Juniors and Sopho-
mores all tied for the championship.
When the final games were played, and the Juniors and Sophomores were still
tied, an extra five minutes was added for the final playoff. The Juniors emerged beam-
ing and victorious. Thus the basketball season ended this year with the Juniors as
"Champs."
The girls selected for the All-Star team were: Edith Johnson, llene Malmassari,
Mabel Seil, Rae Castagno, Betty Jo Isotalo, Barbara Hart, Shirley Peterson, Henrietta
Dolleman, Mary Dana Chute and Betty Nielson. Edith Johnson was All-Star Captain.
