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.

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.

Class of 1936
The one hundred forty-one members of the senior
class are interested in twenty-four different voca-
tions. This fact was brought out in a survey made
by E. P. 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.

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,

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.

The speech activities this year were confined to
several competitive events as a new policy in speech
training was inaugurated. 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.

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.
