50 YEARS AGO (1960)

Dr. Richard C. Kiltz extended to Water Safety Chairman Robert Shane the vote of thanks from the local Red Cross Board of Directors for the leadership Shane had given his committee. Shane had organized the 1960 Red Cross Learn to Swim classes for Snohomish and Island counties.

Marie (Vining) Lundeen, who started her teaching career in Lake Stevens in 1918, was retiring. Congratulating the senior class adviser were graduating seniors Dick Roberson, Reid Carleton, Beverly Shaller and Paula Eisenmann.

25 YEARS AGO (1985)

The hollow sound of the drums and a chant nearly as old as Northwest Indian culture itself reached across the waters of Tulalip Bay as a canoe bearing the one called Haik Ciaub Yo Bouch — Big Chief King Salmon — approached. More than 300 Tulalip Indians and their guests waited on the bluff above Totem Beach to celebrate the return of the chinook.

Cummins Draperies &Interiors at 6020 Commercial, three blocks east of the Country Club, had a 30 percent discount coupon on all fabrics. They also were having a special sale on seamless embroidery drapes or valances and on slipcovers made to look like upholstery.
