| May 17, 1939 will be a Big Day at Clover Park High School. They will be dedicating their new athletic field as a memorial to Walter J. Thompson, second from left, Tacoma and Gravelly Lake pioneer. Pictured with Mr. Thompson are, left to right, School Superintendent A.G. Hudtloff, Mr. Thompson, Mrs. A.S. Black and Ray Thompson. Mr. Walter Thompson holds the speech that he will read at the dedication for the new Clover Park athletic field. The field is named after Mr. Thompson, who donated the initial $1,000 to get the project started. It was completed as a W.P.A. project. In a separate ceremony, the Garden Club will dedicate the pictured plaque, on the stone, in memory of Mr. Thompson's deceased wife Amarilla Thompson. |
