FourARGENTINE HIGH SCHOOL MISS MONA WALTER MISS BESSIE MILLER Glee Clubs, Mixed Chorus, Orchestra Supervisor of Music Band, The great growth of the music department shows that music is one of the main features of Argentine High School. This year three hundred sixty three students were enrolled for some type of music. The courses offered were glee club, orchestra, band, and mixed chorus. The greatest growth has been in the band. The number enrolled has increased from thirty-seven last year to eightyfthree this year. Most of these stu- dents learned to play their instruments through les- sons given in a beginning class last year. The popu- larity of the work has been great enough to war- rant the schools purchasing several instruments, in- cluding a cello, double-bass, and sousaphone. The band has uniforms, which consist of gold satin blouses, corduroy caps, trousers, and capes. The combined orchestras consisted of seventy-six members. Thirty-six were in the Senior High or- ganization and forty in the Junior High. The Junior High orchestra was organized to prepare the Junior High school students for the Senior High orchestra. The glee clubs consisted of seventy-two members, thirty-two girls and forty boys. Approximately forty-eight students were enrolled in the sophomore mixed chorus. This class prepares the students for the glee clubs. The Junior High mixed chorus is a semester class, changing in the middle of the year and therefore offering the opportunity of music to a larger num- ber of students than otherwise could be done. There were thirty-six members in the first semester class and forty-eight members in that of the last semester. The leading music events of the year were the operetta, music week, Christmas program and the Northeast League Spring Festival at Leavenworth, in which eighty-five students from Argentine par- ticipated. —TT Three mTHE ARCENTI AN—1936 Superintendent Principal F.

In the future Argentine High School will have three aims: First, to serve the boys and girls on the south side of Kansas City, Kansas, just as well as in Argentine, because the people on the south side are like minded; second, in serving the boys and girls to appeal to the needs of the students in their voca tional training, as this is an industrial community; third, to serve the students in light of their needs. To afford the stu dents the best opportunities, it is necessary that the school and student be linked closer with the industrial and business worlds. The school knowing the students will offer them the oppor' tunity of trying out jobs as apprentices in the fields they have chosen.

Patterson in connection with the guidance program of the school. Stenographic work is the most popular work. Twenty-six seniors are planning to take up that vo- cation. Journalism is second in popularity and metal shop work and mechanics are third. Other vocations the seniors have chosen are aviation, teaching, archi- tectural drawing, nursing, pharmacy, salesmanship, civil service, medicine, beauty operator, library, cab- inet making, business, athletic work, dentistry, art, designing, electrical work, archaeology, law, music, foods-household, and missionary work. It was also learned in this survey that fifty-five seniors plan to continue their school training after graduation. Twenty-three seniors plan to enter busi- ness college, eleven plan to go to junior college, and nine to some university. Others plan to attend nurs- ing school, military school, trade school, pharmacy school, religious training school, beauty culture school and aviation school. The senior class was represented in the student council by forty-five members. These were mem- bers by virtue of being representatives of various activities such as president of class, president of or- ganizations, school paper and annual staffs, cap- tains of basket ball and football, home room chair- men and in the upper twenty-five per cent of the senior class. This year the prize for the king of “hoboes” went to Fred Mason, a member of the senior class. He was chosen by the student body in the annual Hobo and Kid Day assembly April 1. “Sure Cure,” was the name of the senior play given April 30 and May 1 in the auditorium. The cast was as follows: Agnes Smith, Maxine Cox, Florence Anderson, Jack Post, Jack Porter, Jack Wilhm, Herbert Wildman, Robert Holbrook, Curtis King, Virgil Cheek and Jack Lampe. The proceeds of the play were used to help defray the cost of the Annual. f. ElevenTHE ARGENTIAN—1936 Class of 1936 WILLIAM CROCKETT Mustang Club, 4; Operetta, 3, 4; Glee Club, 3, 4; Track, 1, 2, 3.

Class officers were Laney Pidcock, president; William Lccp, vice-president; Marvin Bales, secre- tary; James Pountain, treasurer; J. D. Thomas, cheer leader. With a burlesque fashion show the sophomores won first prize in the stunt program given on the evening of January 16, receiving a prize of five dol- lars. In the assembly the same morning they ranked second receiving two dollars. With the money from the prizes a sophomore party was given later. Because of their outstanding work in connection with the school paper, forty-six sophomores, with the assistance of one senior editor, edited the thir- teenth issue of the “Argentian.” They made and covered assignments, wrote columns, features, and obtained advertisements. The sophomore composite girl was picked this year by the girls of C. E. Swcnder's vocations class. The results of the survey were, age 15; height, five feet, three inches; weight, 112 pounds, hair, med- ium brown with left part; eyes, one blue eye and one brown; shoes, size six. It was also found the girl prefers a sweater and skirt, low heeled oxfords, and very little jewelry. The composite girl studies approximately thirty minutes each evening, and pre- fers dancing and reading as her recreation. Her fav- orite color is blue. Cosmetics are used moderately. Other qualities which the composite girl possesses are: ability to meet situations fairly and fearlessly, ability to keep confidence, self-control, poise, and balance, willingness to serve and be use- ful, punctuality at all classes, meetings, and en- gagements, willingness to follow instructors, agree- able attitude toward associates, a sense of honor, and dependability at all times.

Of the one hundred eighty students enrolled in the eighth grade this year ninety'three were boys and eighty'seven girls. Last year as seventh grade the class had one hundred and ninety'iiine students. This year's enrollment therefore showed a decrease of nineteen students from that of last year. The eighth grade class had several boys who played on the Junior High basket ball team: Fay Doyle, John Fuller, and Robert Kane. An outstanding example of fine workmanship was that of Paul Hills of the eighth grade history class who constructed with success small models of several locomotives which include the Tom Thumb, the first locomotive. His others include models of 1851, 1863, 1893, and 1934. The following were class officers: Albert Brown, president; Harold Cook, vice-president; George McCurdy, secretary; Claire Arnold, treasurer; and Frank Haney, cheer leader. T tventy'ScuenATHLETICS In addition to the regular work the boys have in physical education they may play in competition with other schools in basket ball, football, tennis, track, and golf. The football season came to a close with a banquet given by the players” mothers. Forty eight players and guests at' tended. The spring sports always end with the playing of all schools on the Northeast Kansas League schedule unless the teams contain champions which participate in the state tourna' ment. For the first time since the school has been a member of the Northeast Kansas League, the basket ball team, this year, won the championship title and thus became eligible to enter the state tournament. The girls are able to play in interclass competition in about the same sports as the boys. The girls were also offered work in badminton, and shuffle board this year.

Because of very green material and the loss of several players by ineligibility, the Argentine Mus- tangs won only one game, tied one and lost six dur- ing the season. The Mustangs were downed by both Wyandotte and Rosedale, arch rivals of Argentine. The teams lost a hard fought decision to an out- standing team when they were beaten by Wyan- dotte, 26 to 0, in a night contest played on the Wyandotte gridiron. The Mustangs, although out- weighed approximately twenty pounds per man, held the Bulldogs in the first period but in the sec- ond and ensuing cantos they were outclassed. The annual Thanksgiving Day battle with the Rosedale High School team saw the Mustangs lose a very close battle by the score of 13 to 6. The Mustangs led by the margin of six points, outplay- ing their opponents, until the final minutes of the last period. During the final minutes of the game the Wild- cats scored twice on long passes to make 13 points just before the gun went off. During the last half- minute of play, Neil Hackett threw a pass which was caught by Dayton Jenkins for a gain of 60 yards, but although he was dangerously near the Rosedale goal line at the end of the game, there was not time to score. Argentine lost games to Atchison, Wyandotte, Rosedale, Shawnee-Mission, Leavenworth, Olathe, and won from Osawatomie and tied with McLouth. This year five men were placed on the All-City honor rolls and two on the Northeast Kansas League honor roll. The recipients of the city honors were: Jack Darnell, end; Neil Hackett, fullback; Fred Mason, center; Donald Taylor, guard; and Robert Bean, quarterback. The two placed on the Northeast Kansas League roll were Jack Darnell and Fred Mason. Next year nine lettermen will return from this year’s squad.

Winning twenty games to three losses along with the Northeast League championship, the consola' tion round of the state tournament and second place in the regional tournament, the Argentine five proved themselves one of the strongest small teams in the state. By breaking the old Wyandotte jinx, which since 1927 has held perfect, the Gold and Blue quintet marched through to its first Northeast League crown since the organizing of that league. In the regional tournament, Argentine, one of four teams in this section of the state to qualify for the state tournament, downed Paola and Rosedale only to be defeated by Wyandotte and to take second place in the tournament. Despite losing two games to Wyandotte, one in league competition, the other in the regional finals, the Mustang five were iiv vited to the state tournament at Topeka where they lost a close game to Winfield in the first game they played but proved their superiority over the first' round losers by winning the consolation round of the state tournament by downing Colby, Abilene, and Lawrence in rapid succession. In the first round of the consolation the team drew Abilene whom they downed 32'24. The fob lowing morning the team from Colby, Kansas, fell by the way side 32'2 3. On the last night of the threc'day tournament Argentine met Lawrence in the finals of the consolation round. The two teams of approximately the same size battled hard from the beginning to the end with the local team end' ing on the big end of the score 30'16. Jack Buckman and Albert Metz were placed on the albstate team of about fifteen players. Buckman set two league records besides a school record. He scored 28 points in one league game, 176 points in 12 league games for new records and 316 points in 23 games this season.

This year a survey was made of the Mustang Club to find how many members were active in other organizations of the school. It was found that of the five senior class officers, all belong to the club, all of the class officers in the junior class be' long, and two of the sophomore class officers. The club is also represented in the typing and debate squads having nine members on the typing squad and three on the debate team. Many members are in the glee clubs, eight girls being in the girls' club and seven boys in the boys' glee club. The Argentian staff claims the largest number of members, having eighteen of the staff in the club. The club was also represented in major sports, having seven members on the football squad, three members on the basket ball squad, and eleven men on the track team. Girls’ Athletics As interest in girls’ sports has grown so much in the last year, several changes have been made in the Girls' Athletic Association. Both the Junior and Senior High groups have been combined as one and the officers of the Junior High act as assistants to the officers of the Senior High group. The officers of the association are: president, Loretta Burton '36; vice'president, Patricia Worrall '37; secretary, Amy Schiebel '36; treasurer, Peggy Henninger '36. The sport managers are: Volley ball, Dorothy Lehman '36; basket ball, Barbara Curran '36; miscellaneous sports, Mary Callaway 36; pub' licity, Evelyn Plunk '37; marshal, Dora Doolittle '38; soccer, Betty Barton '38; archery, Ruth Pruitt '37; dance, Helen Wintersteen '37. The duties of the sports managers are to tabulate the points re' ceived by every girl participating in each respective sport. Every class is given points for the number of games won. The class winning first place receives five points. Three points are given for second place, and one point is given for third place. A new club was organized this year. It is coni' posed of thirteen girls who did very outstanding work in physical education last year. The duties of these girls are to referee all games played in the gymnasium and the Argentine Parish House. The intra'inura! program of last year was con' tinued this year with each class competing with the other for the Girls’ Athletic Association cup. This cup is given each year by the Parent'Teacher A so' ciation to the class earning the most points in atlv letic competition. The senior class won the volley ball tournament, the freshman won second place, and the sophomores, third. The sophomore class won the tennis tourna' ment. The members of the varsity volley ball team were: Dorothy Hall ’36, Dorothy Lehman '36, Amy Schiebel '36, Margaret Harmon, '38, Doris Hultz '39, Fern Woodhead '37, Betty Thoman '39, Treas- urer Lloyd '38, Margaret Teufler '37. Thirty-sevenACTIVITIES As the Argentine High School increases in size there is an increase in the clubs and organizations of the school which bring more boys and girls into the school activities. The Mustang Club is for those who like sports. Campfire Cirls is for the girls in Junior High School. The Girl Reserves is for the girls who care more for religious and welfare work. The Press Club and Quill and Scroll are to give the journalism student opportunities to obtain honors in this field. The Glee Clubs band or orchestra are for the students interested in all fields of music. The Northeast League Spring Festival in which approxL mately one hunded students participated was held April 25, at Leavenworth. Those who participated represented the speech, dramatics, and music department.

A speech class was in- troduced, as a fully accredited subject. It was felt that this arrangement would allow more students to enjoy the benefits of speech training than debat- ing would. Only two debates were held and both were of the non-decision type. One was an open forum de- bate held between Argentine and Wyandotte. The other was a dual debate between Argentine and Osawatomie.

The Student Council had as it objective this year, a guidance program, the purpose of which is to help the students who are preparing to go to college with some basic background upon which to work. The council purchased two sets of books, one set to help those students who cannot go on to school and the other for those who are preparing to go on to school. The upper two-thirds of the senior class and upper one-third of the juniors, who do not belong to the council, were invited to attend all these meet' ings to receive some idea of what the guidance pro- gram is. Membership of the council is made up of the presidents of each class, captains of athletic teams, presidents of clubs in the school, editors and bush ness managers of the school paper and annual, home room chairmen, and the upper twenty-five per cent of the senior class. Each student must have passing grades in all his work of the previous semester to become eligible. There were approximately ninety students who were members of the council. The Student Council officers elected for the 1935- 1936 term were as follows: Robert Bean, pres- ident; Robert Davidson, vice-president; and Maxine Cole, secretary-treasurer. National Honor Society Twenty-four seniors were elected to the National ization on a basis of leadership, scholarship, charac- Honor Society. Members are chosen to this organ- ter and service.

The journalism classes began their work of the year by getting an issue of the school paper into the students' hands the first day of school. Seven' teen students volunteered to come to school two weeks before school started, to arrange for the first issue. The students who worked on the first issue were seniors and juniors. The sophomores published the thirteenth issue of the "Argentian” with the help of Henry Fisher. Juniors had their chance to work on the fourteenth issue with Dorothy Hall as director of that issue. Four editors were in charge of both issues. Three students won gold creative writing keys during the year. Henry Fisher won first place in the United States in newspaper terms contest, Jack Lampe received a gold key in the current news con- test, and Robert Sherriff received one for winning first place in feature writing. Other students who received awards in the Quill and Scroll and other contests were Dorothy Hall, James Bordner, Mari- anna Berns, Herbert Wildman, and Evelyn Plunk. Four students were elected members of the Quill and Scroll at the beginning of the year. They were Nona Harman, Henry Fisher, Dorothy Hall, and Jerry Liston. These four students attended the fourth annual Kansan Quill and Scroll banquet, held at the Kansan Building, March 31. A first place rating was given to the “Argentian” at the close of the term by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. This paper was the only paper in this section to receive such an award. It was also awarded an All-American rating by the National Scholastic Press Association. Girl Reserves “Our Place in the World Today" was the theme chosen by the Senior High Girl Reserves for their work this year. For a project they adopted the plan of working with and helping the children’s ward at Mercy hospital. The cabinet members elected for this year were: Jane Thomas, president; Dorothy Hall, vice-presi- dent; Helen Wintersteen, secretary; Agnes Smith, treasurer; Mary Regan, program chairman; Patricia Worrall, social service chairman; Emogene Keyes, devotional chairman; Nona Harman, publicity chairman; and Frances Baird, music chairman. Mrs. Trevor Lovelace and Miss Jacqueline Pollock acted as sponsors. Forty'foiir— ARGENTINE HIGH SCHOOL An Club First How—Perkins, Alumbaugh, Duggins.
