School notes for Feb. 15, 2011
An affable man and his imaginary friend will grace the stage at Washougal High School during the production of "Harvey" this weekend. The Pulitzer prize winning play, written by Mary Chase, premiered on Broadway in 1944 and ran until 1949. It was also made into a movie, starring Jimmy Stewart. It is about Elwood P. Dowd, a likable man who claims to have a pooka, in the form of a large rabbit, as his constant companion. Since no one but Ellwood can see the 6 foot, 3 inch bunny, it is assumed to be his imaginary friend. He introduces Harvey to everyone he meets, much to the embarrassment of his social-climbing sister, Veta Louise Simmons.

School notes
On Monday, Jan. 24, Lila Robertson Trammell finally received her high school diploma. The event had been more than 75 years in the making. Trammell would have graduated from Camas High School in 1935. However, for reasons she did not want to disclose, Trammell did not attend her high school graduation and never received her diploma. But three-quarters of a century later, she did just that. At a school board meeting, Trammell, now 94, was bestowed an honorary diploma from Camas High School, given to her by Superintendent Mike Nerland.
