Although proud of its achievements both individual and collective, this year's crew claims no other distinction than being an average class of Ames High School, honor enough in itself. For Junior officers the class selected Zac Dunlap, Mary Janet MacDonald, Richard Roupe, and Nadine Hanson—president, vice-president, secretary, апа treasurer, respectively. The Senior leaders are Nadine Hanson, Robert Werkman, Richard Roupe, and Katherine Kelleher. | Misses Neil and Wood were class advisers for the Junior year, and Misses Spatz and White acted in a like capacity during the Senior year.

TWENTY-NINI “ — 7960 THE =- SPIRII - OF - -AMES - HIGH ‘The dunior Class History -%- HE Juniors have sailed a steady, even course into midseas and soon will be reaching their port. During their first year on high seas it took them a surprisingly short time to get accustomed to the routine and duties on the ship where they were out- standing in many ways. The past year has been an eventful one for the Junior passengers. After some weeks they chose Jack Chase as captain, George O’Neil as first mate, and Dorothy Reynolds as purser. With these worthy officers at the helm, responsi- bilities concerning student government, social, citizenship, and service pears have been satisfactorily accomplished. The names of many second year seamen excelling in studies were found on the ship’s log every six weeks. The Junior sailors have also done much in helping to entertain the passengers on the liner. They have several officers in the dramatic club and were represented in the dramatic club play “Mignonetie.” In many of the interesting debates that were held, some of these sailors were allowed to argue. There have been numerous musical entertainments on board the vessel and stops were made at various ports to present programs. The girls’ glee club gave a Christmas program over the wireless. Many of the Junior musicians showed their ability either by singing, or playing musical instruments. Athletics were an outstanding amusement for the passengers and some of the Junior mariners were active in the football, basketball, and tennis games, while the remaining passengers provided the pep. Girls participated in G. A. A., inter-class basketball and volleyball games, and Pep Club. All passengers belonged either to Girl Reserve or Hi-Y. The help. and inspiration they received from this is not to be forgotten. Everybody aboard the ship was especially entertained on January 12, when the Junior seamen presented their annual play, “The Youngest,’ coached by Mrs. Gaunt. The Junior class owes its pleasant voyage to the cooperation of its members and to the helpful leadership of its officers and sponsors, Miss Hadish and Miss Selby.

Thus the Class of '36 set out on a three-year voyage on September 11, 1953. The days which followed were trying ones for all on board. The crew was inexperienced, and once the ship nearly floundered on Geometry Shoals. Then again, a storm struck her and for a moment it seemed that everyone would surely be either drowned—or which was far worse—be stranded on the terrible island of Latin! Good fortune was with the young adventurers, however, for these and many other dangers were passed in safety. Awards were given to many seamen who distinguished themselves in athletics. A large number of the crew went out for other activities—dramatics, music, Hi-Y, and Girl Reserve work. | The ship had been well manned during the year 1933-34, and as a reward practically every. seaman on board was promoted to the rank of junior, and, as a special bonus, all hands were’ granted a three months’ shore leave. Thus ended the first leg of the voyage and consequently the history of the Class of '36 as Sophomores. Two more years of hard sailing, however, lie between them and their goal, the Port of Graduation; may good fortune accompany them for the remainder of the voyage.

Through a very well-organized plan of elections, there are always some experi- enced members in the Council. The sophomores select their representatives in September, to serve until January, at which time they elect for the succeeding two semesters.

To be elected to membership a student must be of at least junior standing and in the upper one-third of his class scholastically; he must be recommended by his supervisor as having done outstanding work in some phase of journalism; and he must have an example of his work accepted by the national secretary-treasurer, The Ames chapter of Quill and Scroll was organized in 1928, two years after the national society was organized at Iowa City by a group of journalism instructors interested in improving the standards of high school annuals, papers, and magazines. Through the medium of the Quill and Scroll Magazine new ideas and improvements in school publications are exchanged among the more than 800 chapters located in all parts of the United States and foreign countries. Various contests in different fields of creative work are sponsored by the organi- zation with the purpose of encouraging and rewarding individual efforts in journalism and allied fields. In these contests the Ames chapter has taken an active part this year. MiRIAM Mosrs THIRTY-NINI —Ni . — Nom А i | — 717 | — — UE — пла ТНЕ - SPIRIT - OF - AMES - HIGH — — — — ұм” = — — , PT.

The purpose of the organization is to stimulate better dramatic work in high school. Five dramatic club members who have the highest number of points are elected to this club each semester. Points are earned by participation in three-act plays, one-act plays, tournament plays, and assisting in the presentation of any one of these. Many of the alumni attend the meetings which are held the second Wednesday of each month, and the reward to every dramatic student for his faithful and deserving work is admittance into this honorary organization.

At Thanksgiving baskets of food were sent by the Girl Reserves and Hi-Y to twenty-five needy families, and at Christmas time a party for the less fortunate child- ren was given. The Girl Reserves and Hi-Y Friendship Week in which Reverend Nightingale, President Hughes, and Reverend Stolen addressed the students, and the Mother-Daughter Tea held during the week constituted the most important part of the year’s program.

The team, editor, business manager, advertising man- ager news editor, and many assistants, coached by Miss Grace Curtis and supported on the sidelines by the entire school, had many difficulties to overcome—lack of news, indifference among students, finances, and inexperience. | However, with splendid team work and those needed cheers, the Web was more peppy and interesting than ever, filled with news of coming events, humor, sports, gossip, activities, and numerous other articles. Representatives from both the Web and Spirit staffs were sent to the National Scholastic Press Association convention at Chicago, and the Iowa High School Press Association convention at Des Moines. The greatest honor for the students having shown unusual ability was membership in the National Quill and Scroll. ALICE CRAIG FORTY-FOUR IAE = SPIRIT OF - " 4MES -.HIGH (0o 0 ——— 0 ——— Se ee.

ROBERT RICHEY N the Debate Club this year the competition for positions on the first team was keen, and several non-decision debates with other schools were held before a team was chosen. Early in December the Ames club was host to teams from about fifteen other schools throughout western and central lowa, who gathered for the annual non-decision tournament. Ames debaters attended a similar meeting in Fort Dodge earlier in the season. For the second time in as many years, an Ames team tied for first place in the Central Iowa Forensic League. The position was gained by virtue of two decisions over Lincoln High of Des Moines and one each from Roosevelt and North. How- ever, each of the latter schools managed to win one decision from the Ames team. But this was only the beginning of the season. The team then settled down to intensive work for the Drake tournament and State League finals which climaxed the season. ROBERT RICHEY FORTY-FIVI Back Row: Third Row: Second Row: Cliff. Mann, S.

Тһе club of almost one hundred members has produced two three-act plays, occasionally sponsoring a program over WOI, and frequently presenting one-act plays. The three-act plays and the one-act plays were very successful, maintaining and enlarg- ing upon the splendid reputation of our popular and capable sponsor, Mrs. Ferne Gaunt. Not only has the club been active at home, but also in state intramural com- petition, presenting a drama in the state contest at lowa ity, and one at the Drake contest in Des Moines. Probably the greatest incentive for the displayed enthusiasm on the part of the members is our excellent point system, and the goal toward which each member strives is the well-known dramatic honorary society of National Thespians.

The fact that it is visited regularly by old members who exhibit a keen interest in its work testifies that its inspirational value is indeed high. Not only does it provide an emotional outlet in the present, but continues to make its power felt in after years when it is only a memory to those students who have graduated. It would be hard to imagine anything more uplifting than interpreting the works of the great masters: Bach, Beethoven, Sibelius. In the pages of their superb masterpieces members of the chorus find a common interest and a common heritage. Numerous programs are given by the Mixed Chorus during the year, and its work is climaxed by the state contest at lowa City in the spring. Future choruses have a goal to achieve and a record to uphold in the standard set for them by their predecessors.

The first part of the year was devoted to becoming familiar with glee club music and making friends among the members. Combined with the grade schools and the junior and senior high vocal groups the Christmas story in song was pre- sented at the field house. The second semester the senior high glee clubs and chorus presented a musical, and the remaining time the Girls’ Glee Club spent in preparation for the state music contest, the winning of which is the aim of the organization. zach member of the glee club will agree that again Miss Bower has given some- thing to the organization which cannot be found elsewhere.

Two meetings a week enabled the Glee Club to prepare a Christmas program, selections for the city and county music festivals, a black-faced minstrel, and various other programs either by the entire club or by select groups. For the first time this club entered the state music contest sponsored each year by the State University of lowa. This club has provided a valuable opportunity not only for students to discover and develop their vocal talents, but also to show them how to discriminate in their selection of musical entertainment.

For the past few years Ames has had one of the most powerful second teams in the state. In order to develop material for varsity football, a second team was first organ- ized in Ames High School by Coach Campbell in 1927. Actual experience in second team games is invaluable in preparing the boys for first team competition. The best prospects for making the first squad next year are Maurice Cox, Jack Smith, William Winton, Lawrence Owens, John Hostetter, and Marion Gardner, al- though more boys will undoubtedly make the grade.

However, in the sectional and district tournaments Ames made a very creditable showing. Starting the season with four victories gave indication of good material. Тһе season's first set-back was at Marshalltown where Ames dropped a hotly contested battle to Marshalltown in an overtime period. However, the Orange and Black came back to wrest a victory from the powerful Oskaloosa aggregation. Losing to Newton, Grinnell, Boone, and Marshalltown marked the low ebb of the season. The Little Cyclones gained a bit of glory by again defeating the Oskaloosa quintet. Following this was the defeat at the hands of Newton in the closest game of the year. In the last two games of the regular season, the Ames High cagers met defeat at the hands of Roosevelt and Grinnell respectively. At the county tournament Ames captured class A honors by defeating Collins in the first round, and Nevada in the finals. At Boone, in the sectional tournament, the Ames team gained victories over Boone, Grand Junction, and Madrid, which made them sectional champions. In the district tournament Ames beat Chariton and Adel, but lost to Roosevelt High of Des Moines in the finals.

Five student journalism leaders along with the two publication advisors entrained for the convention on October 12, 1933, for a stay of two days. Many leaders in the field of journalism either spoke or led round table discus- sions. Among these were H. F. Harrington, director of the Medill School of Journal- ism, Northwestern University, and Llewellyn Jones, editorial writer, Chicago Herald and Examiner. Several points of interest in the loop of Chicago were visited by the students in their stay. The last afternoon and evening were spent at the World's Fair. Those who made the trip were Beth Cummings, George Arnold, Miriam Rich- ardson, Richard Olsan, Charles Reynolds, and the two publication advisors, Miss Grace Curtis and John Harms. GEORGE ARNOLD Homecoming =з СЭЕР — а parade — the big game — and a banquet, but this is only the outline of Homecoming.

This conference is held under the direction of the State Y.M.C.A., Des Moines, lowa. The Ames Hi-Y was well represented by a group of sixteen delegates headed by Paul Jones, president, and Ray Donels, sponsor of the Ames club. The speaker of the conference was the Rev. Rolland W. Schloerb, pastor of Hyde Park Baptist Church, Chicago University. Rev. Mr. Schloerb gave four addresses during the conference. The main theme of these addresses was " The Call of the New World. " There were three discussion groups open to all delegates. The first, led by Mrs. Mildred Morgan of the University of Iowa, had for its topic “Boy and Girl Re- lationships. " The second, under the dir ection of Roy Sorenson, secretary of the National Council of the Y. M. C. A., had for its theme, " How to Better the Hi-Y Club. " The third, led by Dr. C. H. McCloy, of the University of Iowa, discussed “Sports and Sportsmanship.” The entire Ames delegation thoroughly enjoyed the conference and many ex- pressed themselves as being genuinely benefitted by the addresses and discussion groups. The general opinion after the Conference ended was that it had been a success, and it is hoped that future conferences will be equally beneficial. | WALTER BARLOW ‘The Holiday Пор — HE first all-school evening dance ever held at Ames High was given at the field house, December 16. The roof of the field house was covered by green and red streamers tied to a ring in the center and then to beams at the edges. A fire place with two huge stockings made things seem even more Christmasy. Many games and a ping-pong tournament progressed while dancing went on on the main floor. The committee had provided various things to make the evening more successful. Confetti flew everywhere and sifted through people’s hair and down their backs. Serpentines wound around persons’ necks and balloons popping lent additional merriment. The climax to all this fun was the lowering of the ring in the center, thus letting all the streamers down among the dancers.

I think and dream of deeds long dead: From out the musty past strange memories crowd, I see, I hear, I do things long forgotten, Lonely and fearful, I watch. Through madly swaying tree-tops, groaning, The charges of Aeolous, wild, unbound, Foretell the dreaded coming of their kinsman, storm. I cannot help but listen to their moanings Echoing airily 'cross the flats beyond; These ghostly friends and comforts are my comrades in the storm, Lonely and fearful, I watch. The distant lightning, ushered in by roaring thunder Lights up the sky for one short and golden second, Then, its power spent, is gone. A few drops fall and spatter on the grasses. Suddenly the angry clouds lose torrents on the scene below, Lonely and fearful, I watch. Ere long the moon shines clear and bright, Betrays the empty, fleeing clouds; Her mellow beam, more powerful than the blast Sooths and heals the wounds inflicted By the fast receding rage. A whippoorwill calls gladly from her ledge, while No longer lonely, no longer fearful, I rest.

THE - SPIRIT. - OF - AMES - HIGH e ‘Ten Commandments —§- When invited to partake of a sandwich never order a whole meal. Never call a boy “cute” to his face. For some reason boys never seem to like the word. Never talk about the " swell time " you had the night before or expect to have the night after. It doesn’t interest the boys in the least. Don’t keep your escort waiting too long. There is a limit to all patience, no matter how much he loves you. If your partner dances abominably bear with him; he wants to learn. Suggest that you sit that one out. If your boy friend has straight hair never remark how much curls thrill you. It freezes him. Always use indelible lipstick. It saves worry and embarrassment. If you’re riding in a Model T, and a Cadillac roadster passes you, all comments will fall on unheeding ears. Never hint for a fraternity pin, class ring, or the like. If he wants you to have it, he'll give it to you. Avoid flirting any more than necessary. One fellow at a time should be sufficient. EIGHTY-FOUR THE - SPIRIT - OF - ЯМЕ58-НІСН и ل‎ ——— N 22 л A 10, Boys’ ‘Ten (Sommandments If you take a girl to a dance and she is “cut” often, cut back; you paid for her ticket. Never hand girls a " line " ; they see through it, so watch out or they'll hand you one back. If your girl looks nice, tell her so. Why keep it to yourself? Don’t be afraid to ask a girl to go out. Тһе most she can do is say, “No.” Don't palm your sister off on any of your boy friends “sight unseen,” if you value their friendship. Try being gentle. Girls love it. Remember a wave costs a dollar, and ought to last for 2 or 3 dates. When at a party kindly refrain from throwing candy, peanuts, " gedunked " napkins. It not only ruins the rugs but also the girls’ sweet dispositions. Try looking respectable in school as well as on dates. — It will be appreciated. Candy and hamburgers tend to increase weight; bring flowers. Never tell your girl friend that another member of the fair sex is good-looking. Shell think you have bad taste.
