1-lall
The student lounge of Grays Harbor College has been cited, by all who have seen and used
it, the best lounge in the Junior College Conference. From its conception as a coffee and do-nut
bar it has developed ,into a full size snack bar and lounge. In its second year of operation, it has
expanded in size three times its original proportions; has new furnishings, which includes the new
modern snack bar, worth $3,000.00; and is student managed and maintained.
The best in sand­
wiches, coffee, dairy products, and soft ctr.inks of all kinds are available throughout the school day
and week; and are prepared and served with always a smile and a good word by student employees:
The new furniture is colorful, comfortable, and sturdy. Pennants of other colleges abound on the
walls and bright curtains on the windows, courtesy of the Associated Women Students, complete
the decorations. A piano, radio, and a juke box (predominate with its free plays) are also present
for the enjoyment of lounge users.
Dances, college assemblies, and activities of all kinds have been
held in the lounge with great success; and students and faculty members alike make full use of it.

Debate TeanJ_
Several
new school debate records were set by the team of Arlis Johnson and Halph Hillier
while participating in tournaments against some of the most formidable opposition on the Pacific
Coast.
They claim the distinction of being the first Choker forensic men to capture placings in
10 years of participation at the Linfield College "Tournament of Champions."
At the St. Martin's
Invitational Tournament they finished in a tie for third place, winning six out of eight debates
against mostly varsity teams.
The pinnacle of success was reached when the Choker duo received
a bid to the National Phi Rho Pi Debate Tournament in Bakersfield, California.
The No. 1 team captured third place honors in the initial meet of the season, the College of
Puget Sound Tyro Tournament.
They
were the only undefeated pair to reach the finals and
came home victorious in seven out of eight contests.
In the Linfield
meet,
considered
the largest of its kind in the nation, they plowed through

Coach A. J. Hillier and the No. 1 team participated in the strong Phi Hho Pi meet determined
to publicize Grays Harbor College by worthy achievements.

As you turn the pa ges of this book, you may live again those happy days of the past year.
In retrospect,
you will see your friends
in the·ir usual pursuits at GHC and experience once more
the pleasure of taking part in some of the extracurricular activities. The pictures slipping through
your hands will let you breathe again the atmosphere of "that dance," the play or assembly you
had fun taking part in, the all-night cramming sessions for final exams, and that all-important game
or meet in which you were a partioipant or a spectator.
In much the same way that you collect snapshots
and
clippings
for
your
scrapbook,
the
Nautilus staff has tried to recapture some of the more important phases of the past year at GHC
in a book that will become more valuable to you as the years pass.
The Naut.ilus, advised by Miss Gladys 'Smith, is a result of the hard work and cooperative
effort of a good stciff.
Helen Lidbom,
as editor, was responsible for planning the continuity of
the entire book; Bob Zelasko, associate editor, assisted in drawing up the dummy and hondling
all pictures; Dick Murchy, sports editor, creatively arranged pictures for the sports section; Doug

lots of fun for everyone.
Couples danced polkas and square dances along with the regular steps,
and really enjoyed themselves.

Yell Staff
The 1950 Grays Harbor College yell staff was composed of seven members, three yell leaders
and four song queens.
Three of our song queens, Carol Estes, Ruth Bergstrom, and Winnie Rattie
were frosh and Beverly McNelly, ·the fourth member, was a sophomore.
The yell leaders were
King Dave Castagno, sophomore, and Dukes Bob Anderson, sophomore, and Doug Oleson, fresh­
man.
Through hard work and practice they brought to Grays
Harbor the most pep and finest
yelling and singing seen by the college in many seasons.
Perhaps the biggest boost brought about by the staff this year was the addition of "Charlie
the Choker" to their number.

panied the team and student body at all

Football
The
1949 edition of the Grays Harbor College Choker football team swept through a rugged
ten-game schedule, winning nine and losing one to bring to a close the most successful football
season in the history of the school and also a share in the state conference championship.
Rolling up 288 points, 144 first clowns and gaining yardage
from a swift ground and aerial
attack which totaled nearly 5,000 yards, the "Blue and Gray" outdid everyone in the conference
from the statistic angle.

The Chokers then returned home to sink

Once again on the road, the Blue and Gray continued
their

with
a
decisive
33 to 13 win over the Clark Junior College eleven at Vancouver for their third straight conference
victory.
The Chokers next entertained the powerful Everett Junior College team, which was then
tied with Grays Harbor for the league leadership with three wins and no defeats. Playing spirit­
ed, aggressive hall, and capitalizing on their opponents' mistakes, the Chokers came from the field
with a 19 to 7 decision.
Next, stepping out of league play, the Chokers met the Vanport Vikings of Portland which,
like the rest, went down to defeat by a 26-13 score.

After
this game it was learned that Grays Harbor was in the running for the little Rose Bowl classic,
but the following weekend the Olympic Rangers put a stop to that talk by handing the Chokers
their only defeat of the year, 26 to 7, in undoubtedly
the most miserable
weather
conditions
in
which any game could have been played.
The Chokers came back undaunted though, and defeated the Mt. Vernon aggregation in our
homecoming game 27 to 7.

day and trampled the Indians 26 to 7.

Although harnpered by bad weather at the start of the season, Coach 13ob Blaine's 19GO track
and field squad showed marked improvement as the season progressed.
With four returning lettermen in Eldon Odle, Kim Hatch Bob Fitzpatrick, and Al Fairbairn,

Here is another Choker State Champion, the mermen,
who, amassing a total of 79 points,
easily outdistanced all other rivals and brought home the first Washington State Junior
College
swimming championship.
Led by co-captains Eddie Stolson and Perry R osen, the Chokers were defeated only once,
Western ·washington College of Education, in se ason
competition.
Victories
include
a
by
return
swimming meet win over W.W.C.E., a pair of wins over Olympic Junior College, and of course, the
State Junior College swimming meet.
High hopes are held for next year's team, since only two swimmers will be lost to graduation:
state champion breaststroker and individual medley winner Eddie Stoleson and second place back­
stroker Alan Bennett.
Other lettermen this year were Bill Rantala, who won second place in both
the breaststroke and individual medley events at the state meet; Max Brachvogel, state champion
20D yard free styler; Joe Murphy, winner of second place in diving, and Joe Pritchard, third place
in diving.
Co-captain Perry Rosen won first place Ln the 50 and 100 yard events.
The championship
150 yard medley relay team was composed of Bennett, Rantala, and Pritchard, and the 200 yard
relay team was made up of Brachvogel, Murphy, Stoleson and Rosen.
Managerial duties were effi­
ciently handled by Joe Colistro.
Much credit is due Coach Douglas McQuaig, whose fine efforts are largely responsible for the

One of the things we like about our new building is that we
can have our SUPElUOR PUBLISHING COMPANY under the
same roof with us.
It is always gratifying to find the number of authors who as
editors or staff members started long and successful writing
careers working on their school yearbooks. We at ARTCRAFT
are proud of our long record in training and helping editors
and staff members to produce fine professional-appearing year­
books and enjoy seeing ARTCRAFT editors achieve success in
either the literary or the business world.
