Trooper Ronald Warren
January 16, 1937, in Kent,
Washington. He graduated from
the Kent Meridian High School in
June, 1956. On April 16, 1955,
he married Rosalie Mae Burks,
and they now have three children:
Dianna Lynn, age 13; Rita Ann,
age 11 ; and Ronald Ray, age 10.
Trooper Warren became
interested in law enforcement
because of the professionalism
exhibited by the men on the
Washington State Patrol and a
strong desire to serve his country.
He began his career as a patrol
cadet in 1960 as a license
examiner, but was soon assigned
to traffic in the Seattle area. In
1964 he was assigned to Yakima,
and in 1968 he was promoted to
training officer at the State Patrol
Academy.
Trooper Warren became an
instructor on the breathalyzer as a
result of courses he completed at
the University if Indiana and the
University of Washington. He also
attended schools for law
enforcement management and
firearms instructors.
Trooper Warren believes it is
the role of the police officer to
set an example, to be a leader,
and to assure the people that
enforcement officer.
Warren was the recipient of
the Washington State Patrol
Award of Merit. He was selected
to have newspaper men ride with
him when preparing articles on
traffic law enforcement. It was
also a compliment to his ability
when he was selected to attend
the University of Indiana to
subsequently become a
breathalyzer expert.
Trooper Warren's most
interesting experiences have been
in the area of training. He said
that each day presents more
interesting experiences as he
observes and assists in the
development of professional law
enforcement officers.
He vividly recalled that his
most interesting experience
occurred when he saved the life of
a two-year old girl through
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Trooper Warren's own words
demonstrates why he was chosen
for this honor:
Every law enforcement officer
must be trained before he is asked
to perform the duties required of
the men in the police profession.
A well-trained officer will have
confidence in himself and in the

record collection is an album of
18 records which contains the
voices of American poets reading
their own poetry. The title is
"The Spoken Arts Treasury of

who has an interest in modern
poetry, or students studying the
subject in school should ~find these
records a help in increasing their
knowledge of American poetry.
The publisher, Spoken Arts,
Inc., has assembled a spoken
record covering the history of
modern American poetry from
Edgar Lee Masters to the
outspoken and often rebellious
poets of today. The album
contains the voices and poetry of
Benet, Cummings, Eliot, Frost,
Ginsberg, Hughes, Masters, Nash,
Parker, Pound, Roethke,
Sandburg, Stein, Van Dyke and
Van Doren, to name just a few.

balance of humor and protest of
black American poets such as
Countee Cullen and Gwendolyn
