Published by ARGENTINE HIGH SCHOOL Kansas City. KansasRUTH BURNS The Editor DICK HALCOMB The Business Manager• CONTENTS Administration Classes Activities and Organizations Athletics Theme of Book EDUCATION: PAST OR PRESENT? Poems by Kathryn Rygaard Sketches by Don Forbos When parents come to school The things they'll hear and see Are things that pass unnoticed, Perhaps, by you and me. The noise from the typing room; Shouts from the gym floor; The ringing of a telephone Behind the office door. Chattering girls in cooking class The smell of chemistry; Someone in the music room Trying to hit high C. They miss all important things That happen every day. They cannot understand the work We put on every play. They do not see the heartbreak Over a failing grade. They do not guess how proud we are Of good marks we've made We put our heart into it, And parents must confess That they always miss the part That brings us . . . happiness. THE SCHOOL THE PRESIDENT'S CHALLENGE The crisis can be met, but not in a day or a year, and education is a vital factor in the meeting of it.—Franklin D. Roosevelt.PROGRESS IN LIVING DEMANDS PROGRESS IN EDUCATIONNORTH APPROACHE NORTH DOORAIRPLANE VIEWADMINISTRATION When our ideal are very weak. And dim. and far away: When cur courage will rwx face The coming ugly day. When we need tome guidance badly When we need a cheerful word Because our be»i plan have been Laughed at. and unheard. When we need «omething to cling to In our world of dark detpair; When we think we're treated badly And everything teem unfair. That it when adminutration Soothe and prai e —help u on 'Till we know that there i gladne » Waiting in the coming dawn. May we recall the courage of those who settle a wilderness, the vision of those who founded the nation, the steadfastness of those who in every succeeding generation, have fought to keep pure the ideal of equality of opportunity, and hold clear the goal of mutual help in time of prosperity as in time of adversity. May we ask guidance in more surely learning the ancient truth that greed and selfishness can never bring lasting happiness or good to the individual or to his neighbors.— President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Thanksgiving Proclamation, November 30. 1933. In November, 1932. 40 schools in the whole nation were closed. By April, 1933. 5.825 schools had closed. It is now estimated that by April 11. 1934. there were 20.000 schools closed, enrolling 1.025.000 children. FACULTY Mi»» Cora Luce. Mr. Leslie Davi». Mi» Mary Stewart. Mi » Lillian Jc »up. Mr. J. C.

FACULTYCLASSES There' the art cla » drawing Picture of bird , or a tree. Someone' experimenting On soaps, in chemistry. Someone else is drilling On verb , in English class. Glee Club is singing a ong Of a merry lad and lass. In gym a fast furious game Of handball being played. In cooking class we see and smell The bread that' being made. In physic we're building bridges. In typing we test our speed. In sewing we learn how much Material we shall need. Next everything's a nimble; Confusion and hurry teign. Then a bell ring ; there's order. And class goes on again. Religion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good govern- ment and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall forever be encouraged.—Thomas Jefferson. It is estimated that the schools have never absorbed as much as four per cent of the national income, that America spends about five times as much for automobiles as it does for public schools, and that the proportion of the national income devoted to public education is lower now than it has been at any time since 1922.

One of the greatest concerns of all guiders of youth today needs to be how to steady our children against the high power impact of the new forces which have developed in our modern civilization.—Ray Lyman Wilbur. During this school term numerous efforts to introduce Kansas City. Kansas students to music have met with success. The new band move- ment has been furthered in all the high schools. The first student symphony concert by the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of Karl Krueger, had a full capacity attendance of 3.000. The home work shop is another source of recreation that has grown recently. Many students have set up miniature radio stations from which they do their own amateur broadcasting.

Baker The Student Council, the honorary organization of both the junior and senior high schools, was organized at Argentine High School eight years ago in order to have an official governing body made up of the leaders of dif- ferent clubs and athletic teams of the school. Requirements for membership in this organization specify that a student must have passing grades in all his work for the current semester and must have passing grades in all his work for the previous semester. Membership should be considered an honor to any student for only the following are eligible: presidents of each class; captains of athletic teams; presidents of clubs in the school; editor and business manager of the school paper and annual; home room chairmen; hall monitors, and the upper twenty-five per cent of the senior class. As a part of the program of the year, the Student Council sponsored an assembly which was given in honor of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the school. F. L. Schlagle, superintendent of schools, Mrs. Mary Helmreich, found- er of the Parent-Teacher Association in Argentine High School, Mrs. Thomas Worthington, president of the Parent-Teacher Association, and W. R. Honnell, member of the Board of Education, were guests at the assembly. Each gave a short talk. A history of Argentine High School was read and membership pins were presented to the guests and students belonging to the Student Council. Approximately twenty-five representatives of the Argentine High School Student Council attended the meeting of the Missouri Valley Federation of Student Councils, at Wyandotte High School, November 27 and 28, 1933. J. C. Harmon is the sponsor of the organization. The following are the officers elected in the Student Council for 1933-1934: Leo Wells, president; J. D. Richardson, vice-president; and Harriett Anderson, secretary. Thirty-nineFir»t Row.-—Mayo Jameson. Smith. Jones. Hennidger, Norwood. Brown. Butler. Mankin. Mu» Edith Simon (sponsor).

Hall The Mustang Club, pep organization of the high school, was organized to take the place of the Booster and Pep Clubs, which had formerly been the pep organizations of this school. Although the aims of the club are practically the same as those of the Booster and Pep Clubs, many radical changes have been made. Among these is the method of choosing new members for the organization. Under the new plan, members of each class receive a list of their classmates. Of these a certain number of members from each class are chosen, and from this list the students vote on those who they think would make the best club mem- bers. These are then ranked according to the number of votes received and a percentage of each class are admitted to the club. All senior high school class presidents and the school cheer leaders are made members with their appointments to office. Formerly new members of the Booster and Pep Clubs were chosen each spring from applications made out by students desiring membership in the clubs. The old members voted on them. This year's uniforms have been changed only to the extent that the girls have adopted blue turtle-neck sweaters of the same design formerly worn. White shoes and skirts complete the girls' outfits. The boys' uniforms consist of V-neck sweaters with white trousers. These uniforms are worn at all foot- ball and basket ball games and at all pep assemblies. The activities of the Mustang Club consist of stunts at football and basket ball games and pep stunts at assemblies. In addition to these a marching exhibit was given at the Parent-Teacher party and a program was presented at Rosedale High School, this year. Funds for the club were made by sponsoring two picture shows at the Pershing Theater. Club social activities consisted of a picnic and dance at Quivira Lakes, a party at the home of Nedra Mayo, and a banquet at the Quivira Lakes Club- house. The officers of the club were Leo Wells '34, president; Eugene Hiatt '35, vice-president; Beulah Williams '35, secretary; and Frances Smith '34, treasurer. FortyORCHESTRA AND BAND First Row Babcock.

They also furnished music for the pep assemblies, the operetta, cantata, and the junior and senior class plays. At the music festival in Atchison, held this year in place of the Northeast League Contest, seven schools were represented, Shawnee Mission, Olathe, Wyandotte, Rosedale, Atchison, Leavenworth, and Argentine. Howard David- son, member of the high school orchestra, was concert violinist. Thurlow Lieurance, composer of "By the Waters of Minnetonka.” and director of the Glee Clubs, conducted the orchestra in his own famous com- position. Members of the advanced art class make up the Art Club. They work with designing and painting, and furnish some of the advertising posters for the class and activities plays. In connection with the spring art exhibit, the students worked out a frieze, with eleven portals, each representing one of the various departments of a high school. This was the result of several weeks of study of figure work. Every student had a part in the frieze, visiting the departments and making sketches of what he saw.

The Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs combined talents and presented in Feb- ruary, "In Old Vienna,'' a musical comedy. Previously they appeared to- gether in an annual Christmas program. Late in the spring both Glee Clubs participated in the Northeast League Festival held at Atchison, Kansas, and also during Music Week. The officers elected in the Boys' Glee Club were George Baker, president; J. D. Ricahrdson, vice-president; James Crew, secretary; Bob Wing, treasurer; Harold Woolery, Dale Andrews, and Clyde Wisemen, librarians. The Girls' Club officers were Florence Tipton, president; Maxine Richard- son, vice-president; Marion Weil, secretary; Vivian Nixon, treasurer; Imogene Ebbing and Frances Baird, librarians.

The typing classes adopted a new checking plan this year, by which each student receives credit for every perfect word written during the fifteen minute test and each amateur and novice writer is allowed one and one-half per cent errors on each paper. This system is an aid in the winning of awards in the monthly Woodstock Award Test, in which many students won pins and seals. The team participated in the trophy contest sponsored by the Kansas City Kansan, and the Kansas State Contest. The Kansan contest resulted in Argentine winning thirty-nine points out of a possible sixty. In the Kansas State Contest, Argentine took the first four amateur places, with Emleen Johnson, first; Emmagene Wilhelm, second; Juanita Atkinson, third; and Madelyn Bender, fourth. This made Emleen the state champion amateur writer. By winning four out of eight debates the Argentine debate teams were able to tie with Wyandotte for third place in the second district debate tourna- ment held at Lawrence, Kansas, March 9. Argentine was represented by Chett Eckman and Donald Powell, affirma- itve; and Eugene Hiatt and Frank Jirik, negative. The affirmative team won three debates and lost one while the negative won one and lost three. The question debated this year was "Should the United States adopt the British method of radio control?” In the speech division of the Festival held at Atchison, Kansas, Margaret Foster '34 won a first place in humorous reading. Vada Mae Presley '34 won second in dramatic readings. Eugene Hiatt '33 won third place in extempo- raneous speaking. Chett Eckman '33 won third place in original oratory. Frank Jirik won third place in oratorical declamation. Fir t Riw—Powell. Jamcjon. Iron . Jink. Second Row — J. C. Shankland (coach). Eckman. Hull. Colvin.

Journalism is offered as a three year course combined with English, and carries an extra credit. From the third year class the staff is chosen for the ‘’Argentian," the semi-monthly publication. Much of the work on the paper is accomplished after school hours, and points are given for this work. Requirements for membership in the Press Club are based on a definite number of inches printed in the Argentian and the number of points acquired. This club is under the sponsorship of the Quill and Scroll Society and besides promoting an interest in journalism work, provides an opportunity for students to discuss plans for the betterment of the school paper and annual. Officers of the Press Club are Edwin Browne, president; Leo Wells, vice- president; Emleen Johnson, secretary-treasurer. Members of the Quill and Scroll this year are Edwin Browne, Dick Hal- comb, Ruth Bums. Bob Wing, Marie Metz, Don Forbes, Dean Arnold, Harriett Anderson, Richard Schwitzgebel, Edith Huyck, Mary Harmon. Qualifications for membership are that the student be a junior or a senior in the upper third of his class, and have done superior work in writing, editing, or business management. This year a dinner and entertainment was given for the Quill and Scroll chapters of the city, by Mr. W. A. Bailey, editor of the Kansas City Kansan. This was the second dinner of this type. In the Scholastic Awards Contest, announced in the spring, Ruth Bums won third place in the United States in interview and third in news writing in the national contest conducted by the Sigma Delta Chi of Columbia Uni- versity. In the state contest conducted by the University of Kansas, the Argen- tian received three first places and one second place. These were first place for reporting, and first place for editorial, Bob Wing; first place in business management and second place for a report on service to the school. Reports for these last two entries were made by Edwin Browne, Bob Wing, and Dick Halcomb. Each year the Argentian is entered in the Columbia Scholastic Press con- test, which is sponsored by Columbia University, New York City. This year Fo. ty -fourPRESS CLUB Firtt Row-—Powell. Huyck.

Toward the end of the year the paper also received its first place rating in the National Scholastic Press Association, in a competition of more than six hundred schools. The paper has had this rating practically all the time of its existence. Students have also won personal awards in the Quill and Scroll group contests, held throughout the year. In the first contest Bob Wing '34 won honorable mention in the South Central States for his paper on current news. In the same contest Ruth Bums '34 won third place in the South Central states in the editorial contest, and Don Forbes '35 won honorable mention in the South Central states for a news story. Later in the year Don Forbes received a medal for a national place in the feature writing contest. In the second group contest James Hall '34 received honorable mention in the South Central states for a sports story, and Edwin Browne won second place in the South Central states in the advertising con- test. In the third contest Bob Wing won first place in South Central states for an editorial; Harriett Anderson '34 received honorable mention for headline writing and Mary Elizabeth Magnenat '35 received honorable mention in the vocabulary contest. Twice during the year the staff published a six-page paper, at Christmas and at the close of the year. Interviewing is one of the major activities of the journalism work. This year numerous interviews with notable persons have been obtained, among whom were Jeffery Famol, English author; Olson and Johnson, comedians; Clemence Dane, dramatist; Leila Roosevelt, globe trotter; Major Smedley Butler, Wiley Post, Governor Alf London, General Hugh S. Johnson, Amelia Earhart Putnam, Amy Mollison, and Miss Marjorie Graves, member of the House of Commons of England. This year the newspaper staff had charge of publishing the yearbook. It changed the style from the conventional to a more modernistic type. Forty-flv Fir»t Row—Broomfield Wintenfren. Andrew . Waller. Stoker. Second Row—Landon. Teufler. Cole. Wolf, Stoddard. Harnton.

JUNIOR HONORARY SOCIETY Being based upon the same elective principles as is the Senior high school National Honor Society, the junior high school National Honor Society has existed two years. Choosing the students is confined to five steps: 1. Each teacher instruct- ing a grade in the junior high school makes out a list of students he thinks to be outstanding in scholarship. 2. These lists are combined into one large list. 3. Permanent records are gone over and names thought needed are added to this list. 4. This list is again sent out to junior high teachers who check names of students thought to be outstanding in scholarship, leadership, service to school, and character. 5. One teacher for each grade takes these last checked names to each teacher in that grade. After discussion the final list for each grade is submitted to the office. For the year 1932-33 there were nine students chosen from the seventh grade, nine from the eighth grade, and twelve from the ninth grade, making a total of thirty in the entire junior high school. There is no limit to the possi- ble number of students chosen. In order that the students may look forward to being in the senior high school honor society, this society has no officers, and is not a formal organi- zation.

FOOTBALL Approximately seventy-five boys answered Coach John Lonborg's call for football candidates, September 5. Among the seventy-five there were only seven lettermen available to build a winning team around. The team went through a very hard season, winning five games, losing three, and tying one in a nine-game schedule. The Mustangs lost their annual game with thier most bitter rival, the Wyandotte Bulldogs, by a top heavy score of 41 to 6, but the Argentians showed their football ability by being the first team in the league to score a touchdown on the city and Northeast league champions. In their annual Thanksgiving Day tussle with the Rosedale Wild- cats the Mustangs emerged 18 to 6 victors with Wilby Keyes, 210-pound full- back, scoring all three touchdowns. This victory placed them in fourth posi- tion in the league with three wins and two defeats. WASHINGTON RURAL Argentine opened the season with an impressive victory over the Wash- ington Rural eleven. The team showed a powerful scoring attack as well as an air-tight defense to defeat the rural team by a 20 to 0 score. WARD HIGH Ward high defeated the Mustangs by a 33 to 2 score. This game was the first defeat of the season. It was just too much Bukaty for the home eleven to handle. He intercepted three passes and made three touchdowns for his team. OSAWATOMIE Argentine won its second game of the season by downing the Osawato- mie eleven 19 to 6 on the home field. The Mustangs were held to only six points until the last quarter when they started on a belated drive for two touchdowns. LEAVENWORTH The Mustangs and the Pioneers battled to a 6 to 6 tie in an interesting league contest before a large crowd on the prison city field. OLATHE Argentine journeyed to Olathe and was handed a 13 to 0 setback by the husky Olathe Eagles. This was a surprising defeat for all of the Mustang followers. WYANDOTTE The Argentians lost their third game of the season in a night game with the champion Wyandotte Bulldogs, the score being 41 to 6. The game was a better contest than the score would show with the Mustangs holding the Bulldogs to a 14 to 6 score at the half time. Forty-nln«CAPTAIN PETER INNES FOOTBALL MASCOT TOOKIE WELS.S SHAWNEE MISSION By trouncing the Shawnee Mission eleven 13 to 6 the Mustangs climbed into a fourth place tie with the Atchison high team. Keyes made the first score in the second quarter. The rural team came back strong after the intermission and put across its lone tally of the game. Captain Peter Innes made the last Argentine counter when he broke through the Shawnee line, blocked a punt and fell on the ball after it had rolled over the goal line. ATCHISON Playing a superior brand of football the Mustangs defeated the Redmen of Atchison by a top-heavy score of 31 to 0 and virtually assured themselves of fourth place in the league. ROSEDALE By defeating the Rosedale eleven by a score of 18 to 6 the Mustangs took undisputed possession of fourth place in the league race and third place in the city standings. By scoring all three of the touchdowns in this game, Wilby Keyes, fullback, took the lead over Edwin Clasen in the league and city scoring, having a total of sixty-seven points to his credit, to Clasen's sixty. Approximately forty-five boys attended the annual football banquet given by the mothers of the players. Seventeen letters were awarded the boys who played in most of the games. Each letterman also received a small silver miniature football trophy, with the letters "A. H. S.” engraved on it. J. D. Richardson, quarterback, was elected captain for the 1934 season.

BASKET BALL Prospects tor basket ball did not look very bright at the beginning of the season because Coach John Lonborg had only one letterman returning to build his team around, but the team had a fair season, winning seven and losing nine games for a percentage of .439, although it was handicapped by lack of both size and experience. The squad did not enter the regional tournament which was held at Leavenworth. The Argentians tied for fifth place in the Northeast League with the Olathe Eagles, both teams winning three and losing nine games in league competition. Eugene Hiatt, forward, was elected captain of the team for this year. The Mustangs opened the season with a 24-18 victory over the Golden Bears of Turner. Their second victory came at the hands of Manual High, of Kansas City, Missouri. The league race opened with the Argentians journeying to Atchison, only to be defeated 32-18. After a closely fought first half, the Olathe Eagles warmed up and trounced the Mustangs 28-10. The Mustangs defeated the Indians of Shawnee Mission 24-15 for their third victory of the year. The powerful Bulldogs of Wyandotte defeated the locals by a top-heavy score. Led by their captain, the Rosedalians defeated the Mustangs in their first battle by a 26-15 score. Hitting the basket from all angles, Argentine trounced Turner 36-19. In a game in which the defensive play of both teams stood out, the Pioneers of Leavenworth emerged 20-12 victors over the locals. In a return game, the Atchison quintet barely eked out a 23-21 victory in the closing minutes from the locals. The Mustangs got back to winning ways, and avenged their earlier de- feat by trouncing the Eagles of Olathe 30-25. Argentine rang up its highest score of the year by defeating the Shawnee Indians 46-16 on the latters' court. In the closest and most thrilling game of the year the Argentians emerged one point victors over the larger and more experienced Osawatomie quintet. The return engagement with the Wyandotte five was a much closer con- test with the Bulldogs winning 43-28. In this game the Mustangs won an honor by scoring the largest number of points that were scored against the champions this year. The Wildcats of Mount Marty again defeated the Argentine quintet by a 23-17 score on the Rosedale court. In the final Northeast league contest the Leavenworth five nosed out a 31-28 victory over the Mustangs on the home court. Argentine improved one hundred per cent from the start of the season to the finish. Fifty-twoJUNIOR HIGH BASKET BALL Front Row—Gills . D. Schicbel. L. Moore. A. Thom a , Stcver on, Thorp, Jcnkin . I.

Since there was no one to take care of the boys interested in junior high basket ball a regular schedule was not drawn up, but the boys practiced two nights a week to receive training for future high school teams. Fundamentals, such as pivoting, passing, dribbling, and shooting were stressed to the boys. The value of team play was also brought out. Every student had to receive permission from every teacher that he had and he had to make superior grades in all subjects before he was allowed to practice. Price Stephenson, center; John Thorp, forward; Billy Duggins, forward; Dayton Jenkins, guard; and Lester Moore, guard, were the boys who showed up exceptionally well and who looked as if they would be good high school material in the future. The boys were coached by C. E. Swender. Approximately fifty men reported for track this year, under the direction of C. E. Swender. With twelve lettermen back from last year's team, pros- pects were bright for the strongest team in the past ten years. The inter-class meet was won by the sophomores with the juniors second and the seniors running a close third. Dual meets with East and Shawnee Mission, and a triangular meet with Southwest and Manual, and the regional, state and Northeast Kansas league meet, and the Kansas University Relays, made up the complete schedule for the season. The lettermen who returned were Peter Innes, Harold Buckman, Edwin Walker, Dale Andrews, Wilby Keyes, J. D. Richardson, Eugene Hiatt, Alfred Brush, Howard Haney, Arthur Hultz, and Bob Mason and George Baker who won letters two years ago. Front Row Crockett. McCauley. Hatfield. Andrew . Baker. Richardaon.

Boys in the “A" Club are leaders in the school because they possess both clean sportsmanship and school spirit. Any boy who has earned a letter in a competitive sport at Argentine is eligible for membership in the club. Eight boys in the club were recommended for membership in the National Athletic Scholarship Society. In order to be recommended the student must have grades equal to the average of the student body or above. The ath- letes approved are Alfred Brush '34, Eugene Hiatt '35, James Hall '34, Stephen Meade '34, Peter Innes '34, William McDonald '35, Lyman Ketchum '35, and Robert Bean '36. The officers of the "A" Club are Peter Innes, president; J. D. Richardson, vice-president; and Eugene Hiatt, secretary-treasurer. The tennis team played several dual matches with local teams and en- tered the Northeast Kansas league meet. Only one letterman returned for tennis this year, but there were several other good prospects for the team. Richard Heatherton was the only letterman. In a tournament held in the fall, Everett Ford '34 defeated John Shannon '35, 6-2, 3-6, 6-4 in the finals, to be- come school champion. A tennis ranking board was kept during the fall to put the players in good shape before the regular season started. The golf team, with three lettermen back and several other good golfers, played dual matches with local schools and schools in the Northeast Kansas league. The team entered the Northeast league meet which was held in Kansas City, Kansas. The team also had a six-man dual meet with Wyan- dotte, which it won.

BOYS' GYMNASIUM LEADERS The gymnasium leaders' class was a new idea this year, inaugurated by Leslie Davis, physical education instructor. Boys who did outstanding work last year in the physical education classes were chosen by Mr. Davis to act as gymnasium leaders. The objective of the class was to demonstrate the exercises the other gymnasium classes used. Each leader took physical education during the second hour, during which time he received instructions on advance gymnasium work. Then, during one other hour of the day, each leader was assigned to a class, where he acted as a leader, helping check roll, demonstrating exercises, and assisting Mr. Davis in general. These leaders formed the nucleus of the school gymnasium team, which was coached by Mr. Davis. The team met in competition with Wyandotte and Rosedale in a double round robin schedule and also participated in the all-city meet, which was held at Rosedale. This is the second time that Argentine has had a gymnasium team, Leo Green, physical education in- structor at Rosedale, coaching one here two years ago. Letters were awarded to all those on the team who had scored a total of ten points, in either the meets with other schools, or in the inter-class meets, and who placed in the city-wide meet. During the gymnasium show, the gymnasium team gave a special dem- onstration in advanced work on heavy apparatus. The leaders' class originally represented boys of the senior class only; but later any member of the junior class who showed a marked ability in gymnasium work was chosen for the class. Only those boys who were pass- ing in all school studies were eligible to the leaders' class; consequently, the same rule was applied to boys seeking a position on the gymnasium team. The training received from the higher degree of work in the leaders' class gives the boys who are seeking positions as physical education instructors a greater opportunity for success.

W’eil A girls' leaders' class was organized this year for the first time in the his- tory of the school, by Miss Ruth Dunmire, physical education instructor, for the primary purpose of training girls in the matter of leadership and perhaps give them some instruction in the matter of a future career on the basis of gymnasium instruction. The primary purpose for the organization of leaders was to assist Miss Dunmire in classes where congestion is very pronounced and the large number of students could not possibly be handled by one person. The curriculum for girls' physical education revolves around three main objectives, and offers a wide field of endeavor. The three-fold plan which envelops girls' physical education includes posture, correction, at least one sport which a girl can carry over with her into adult life and the developing of a healthy and sturdy body while she is attending high school. The program for this year was concentrated for the most part about sports, heavy apparatus exercises, and tumbling. The "A" Club and the Numeral Club are organizations whose members are made up solely of girls who have earned in competitive sports at least one thousand and five hundred points, respectively. These points are earned by the students' participation in various sports such as basket ball, volley ball, tennis, deck-tennis, archery, handball, and baseball. When one thou- sand points have been earned, a girl is entitled to receive a letter in sports; five hundred points must be secured before she receives a numeral. Every girl who takes gymnasium and who is interested in sports is given attention and is directed toward the sport which is best suited to her. No highly trained athletes are developed or given special instruction and ad- vantages at the expense of others who are not so well adapted to strenuous play. A happy medium is striven for and if this goal is reached, the purpose of girls' physical education will be fulfilled. Flfty-tevenThe sophomore girls' volley ball team, captained by Dorothy Hall and coached by Miss Ruth Dunmire, physical education instructor, won the inter- class volley ball tournament. The victors played decisive rounds with every other class team and all were given equal chances to prove their valor. Miss Dunmire selected all teams and all of the games were held in the gymnasium after school hours. Basket ball, also a major sport for girls, became a much more developed sport this year. The tournament was won by the juniors, with Frances Nor- wood as their captain. In the minor sports the juniors won the deck-tennis tournament while the sophomores were victorious in handball and the free-throw competition. The annual physical training exhibition, consisting of regular class work, sports, and novelty dances, was held May 15, in the gymnasium. Emleen Johnson was crowned May Queen by Beverly Brown, the May Queen of last year. Her two attendants were Frances Norwood '35, and Frances Smith '34. The May Queen presided over the program of marching, setting-up exercises, dancing, tumbling, acrobatic stunts, heavy apparatus exercises, the building of pyramids, and sport tableaus.
