I 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.

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. $ * Ht By Mac GHggs 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 ? • * =t: By Nancy Handley 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. Until It's Plant.ed ' It's N0t a Home '.; ALDERCROFT I 'le East Plywood plant ] !
