TOP OF T,E OCEA'N i
Tacoma's Top Of The Ocean, lmpulr and intriguing
waterfront restaurant dvoted to good food amid
nautical surroundings.
Focal pOint for tourists sad eonfft, e.gating Place for celebri-
ties is the Top Of The Ocean, unique and fabulous marine
restaurant in Tacoma. Located at water's edge in Tacoma's
"Oldtown" seotion, this "ship that never leaves port" offem
choice luncheons, dinners and dinner-dancing amid surround-
ings reminiscent of luxury ocean cruises so popular before
World War IL
The striking "ship" exterior at once intrigues the visitor,
and the sea-going illusion is maintained throughout the interior.
The large main dining area, or "salon" surrounds a beautifully
decorated sunken dance floor and nautical orchestra stand.
Wide halls, or "Companionways" lead to smaller dining rooms,
available for group and club dining. Even the ceiling lends to
the ship illusion, providing the feeling of an overhead curved
deck. The water-side windows open to a sweeping marine and
land view, and wide doors from the main *'salon" open to a
roomy deck rUnning the entire length of the "Ship." Here, one
may stroll, or relax in deck chairs under a protecting upper
deck.
On the upper deck of this ship structure is located the
club rooms and canvas covered promenade deck of the famed
Tacoma Athletic Commission, The T. A. O. was organized dur-
ing the late war to promote sports activities among members of
the armed forces in this area and to furnish sports equipment
for service personnel at camps and hospitals. In peace-time,
this work is continuing, in addition to the promotion of sporting
events in the Tacoma area.
It is rare indeed when important visitors to Tacoma are
not eated to a visit of the. Top Of The Ocean. There is
perhaps no bettor location ,o ge the "feel" of Tacoma's
friendly, informal mmmer than this delightful spot.

The home economics classes
have many projects under way,
The girls are doing everything
from hemming dish towels to
making suits, pajamas, house-
coats and dresses. It's quite a
production line.
There are 13 girls enrolled in
the retailing selling class this
year, with five local merchants
who form a committee to act a
an advisory group to the coordin-
ation.
These merchants make sugges-
tions on the type of training tlmt
should be given to future em-
ployees thrgit the medium of
the retail selliiig class. This com-
mittee also helps to secure posi-
tions for lhe retail selling stu-
dents. The advisory group meets
with the coordinators at given in-
tervals to talk over current prob-
lems.
The members of the committee
are Henry Bacon, Andy Ander-
son. Cliff Wivell. Glenn FergJmon
and Roy 'M(.Conkey.
This class in retail selling has
recently formed a local Distribu-
tive Education club nd they hope
to become affiliated with the state
organization.
Mr. Hermes has announced that
those people having reserved
tickets for the football games this
year will.have the middle section
of the grandstand. The rooters'
section will be changed from the
north end to the south eid.
He hopes that this arrangement
will be satisfactory to everyone.
JUNIOR IIIGH SCHOOL NEWS
By Geraldine Carlson
Something entirely new and dif-
ferent is being done at the Shel-
ton Junior high scimol. It is new
to the students here, but is being
done in some of the larger school.
Every day 12 girls turn out for
Cheer Squad under the direction
of Frank Willard. The girls will
be chosen for their leadership and
ability to bring out the best in
a cheering section.
This manner of clmosing was
decided upon rather than the pre-
vious way of having the student
body elect.
Mr. Schwarck pointed, out that
two people who try out together
rarely are the same build and
rarely look well together. There-
fore, this is the way to find girls
who look well together and who
otherwise never would have had
the opportunity to turn out.
The results of these try-outs
will .be seen in the squad at the
Shelton Junior High - Centralta
Junior High benefit game Friday"
night.
Girls who turned out include
Karen Condon, Geraldine Carlson,
"Coco" Lovell, Ella Mae Noble,
Georgene Durkee, Aylene Lough-
non, Mary Ann Knutzen, Gall
Ahlskog, Joan Hadsell, Jean Had-
sell, Jo Loyce Hunter and Janice
Napier.
"vVinners chosen were: Yell lead-
ers, "Coco" Lovell and Geraldine
Carlson: Songleaders, Karen Con-
don, Georgene Durkee, Ella" Mac
Noble and Jo Levee Hunter.

It seems not many people are
interested in football, or is it that
the girls who are selling tickets
for the benefit game aren't try-
ing hard enough.
I think if the salespeople ex-
plain that it is for our athletic
fund, more people will buy tlCk-
ets for the game.
Now let's get in and sell all the
tickets, and how about a few more
volunteers ?

The girls in the seventh, eighth
and ninth grades are doing their
best to fix up the girls' room 'at
the Junior high.
With the help of Mrs, Durkee,
the home economics teacher, the
girls are going to try to sell 100
dozen candy bars a week. The
money collected from the sales
will be used for buying drapes,
bedspreads and so on for the girls'
room.
