The officers for the year were: Bob Marvinc ’47, president; Lois Ann Smith ’47, vice-president; Bill Greenwood ’47, secretary-treasurer. Committees appointed for the year were: Scholarship, Inter-School, Social, Publicity, Build- ings and Grounds, Assembly, Club-Charters, and All-City Student Congress. ------a— -------------------------------- © CONGRESS • These committees investigated the situations and problems of the school, then reported the in- formation to the government body. The problems were discussed and probable solutions presented. This information was reported to all second hours through the second hour representatives. There were 42 members of the congress this year. The sponsors were V. E. Timmins and J. C. Harmon, principal. • PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATION • With a membership of 248, the Argentine High School Parent-Teacher Association carried on its work this year under the leadership of Mrs. Harry C. Kennedy. The other officers for the year were: Mrs. John Coulter, first vice-president; Mrs. W. A. Suggs, second vice-president; Mrs. Everett Hutchings, secretary; Mrs. Arden Miller, treasurer. J. C.

Armstrong, air corps veteran and former back- ficld coach at Wyandotte, took over duties as head mentor. William Chrisman high school of Independence, Missouri, joined the list of Mustang opponents. Eight Icttermen, seven linemen and one back- fielder, returned to play the ten-game schedule, six games of which were won by the Argentine eleven. Gerald Cozad and Marvin Coons returned to the team after service in the navy and coast guard, respectively. Marvin, a letterman and co- captain of the team, played end, while Gerald filled the fullback position. Other lettermen who played on the forward wall were: Kenneth Miller, end; George Ninemire, tackle; Bill Holtom, tackle; Dick Woodruff, guard; Charles Walters, guard; and Karl Eldridgc, center. Bill Greenwood, co-captain and signal- calling halfback, was the only backficld letterman to return this year. Miller, Greenwood, and Wood- ruff were selected for the all-star city team. The squad was a well balanced one with speed and ability in the backfield combined with a hard charging line which had an average weight of 162 pounds a man. It scored a total of 158 points compared to 1 10 by its opponents. Eight lettermen will again be back for next year’s competition and they will be fighting to improve on this season’s excellent record. schedule: September 20 Argentine 26 Turner 7 October 2 5 Argentine 7 Lawrence 1 8 September 27 Argentine 12 Osamatoniie 0 October 30 Argentine 27 Olathe 7 October 4 Argentine 0 Shawnee Mission 31 November 8 Argentine 37 Atchison 1 3 October 1 1 .. .

Prospects for the 1947 football season with its eight returning lettermen show a good possibility of producing a first class team with an excep- tionally strong and experienced line combined with a fast and efficient backfield. Of the eight veterans who will return next fall, six arc slated for the all-important line. At end will be Robert Mullins ’49, who earned his first varsity last season. Filling the guard spots will be Jack Walling ’48, and Charles Walters ’49. Charles has two first team awards while Jack will be working for his second award. Holding down the tackle positions will be Bill Holtom ’48, and Ed Bowman ’48. Center for the squad will be small but efficient Karl Eldridgc ’48. Chester Strehlow ’48 will be the only one of last season’s ball toting regulars to return next season. He will probably return to his quarter- back spot while Gus Burton, who earned his first letter in the ’46 season, will be putting his speed to good use at a halfback position. Coaches for the season will probably be the same as last, with Richard E. Armstrong as head coach; Roy T. Baker handling the varsity line and C. E. Swender and C. F. Kukuk taking care of the reserve squads. © Argentian — Scene 31 ©© THRU THE L E N S VARSITY BASKETBALL FOURTH ROW'—Dovlc. Mullens. R Nine- mire. Strehlow, Stephenson. THIRD ROW—Walters. Lattin. G.

Baker built the 1946-47 var- sity basketball squad and its excellent record of eleven victories out of eighteen regular games. A precedent was begun at Argentine with the playing of the first invitational basketball tourna- ment of January 10 and 11 in which Winfield, Shawnee Mission, Newton and Argentine partici- pated. Winfield downed Shawnee Mission and Argentine to take first-place honors in the tourney. With the exception of Shawnee Mission, North- east League champions, no team defeated the Mus- tangs more than one time during the season. The squad won two games from Leavenworth, Atchi- son, and Olathe, while they split games with Rose- dale, Wyandotte, Ward, Turner and Lawrence. Ward and Rosedale shared the city title while Argentine, with its three win and three loss rec- ord, took third-place honors, and Wyandotte fin- © Scene 32 — Argentian ished in the last spot. In the Northeast League, Argentine lost three games to take third place. Shawnee Mission and Lawrence were tied for first place when the Mustangs closed their season with a 29-34 victory over the Lions to give Shawnee the league crown. Argentine took another third place, this one in the regional tournament, played at Wyandotte. The Mustang quintet downed the Haskell Indians in the opening game but lost to Ward in the sec- ond night of play. In the third place playoff Ar- gentine defeated Wyandotte by a 29 to 25 score. This is the first time in its history that Argentine has defeated Wyandotte twice in the same year. The Ward, Rosedale, Wyandotte, and Lawrence victories were the most exciting with the first three of these teams being nosed out by one-point margins in tight defensive games. The Lawrence victory was outstanding because of its deciding the league champion. AT ARGENTINE HIGH ■■■ ■ ■ ' = • BASKETBALL LETTERMEN • FIRST ROW—Gu Burton, Marvin Coons.

For the first time in the history of the North- east Kansas league the track champions were de- termined on the basis of winners of dual meets. Argentine met Leavenworth and Olathe on their home tracks, while Lawrence, Shawnee Mission, and Atchison came to Argentine. The team also entered the University of Kansas and Baker relays, and the regional and state meets. The league meet was held at Argentine on May 2 and 3. Gus Burton, Bill Greenwood, and Lloyd Mairs were the outstanding boys on both the high jump and the hurdles, with Mairs also handling a large part of the broad jump and Burton and Green- wood running on relay teams. Andy Lillich was the top man in both the 220 and 440-yard runs while Forrest Cook handled the half-mile. In field events, Bill Fioltom, Kenneth Miller, Chester Strehlow, and Richard Woodruff were the lettermcn who returned from last year. Holtom was generally active in most of the events, includ- ing the broad jump, high jump, shot put and dis- cus. Miller was an outstanding man on shot put, discus, and javelin. Strehlow was top man on both the discus and pole vault while Woodruff was the chief point collector for Argentine in the javelin event. FIRST ROW Gus Burton.

First learning to read the various types of blue- prints, the students start free hand sketching. The second semester begins with the use of in- struments, the T square and triangles. Second year work is a continuation of that of the first year. Here problems of machine develop- ment, intersection, revolutions and transition drawings arc solved. Isometric, oblique, cabinet, true perspective, tracing and blue printing complete the course. Beyond the second year, drafting students take advanced machine drawing and architectural. This type of work is used in drafting rooms of local industries. The class is under the direction of E. A. Moody. • WOODWORKING • After learning to draw their own plans free- hand, the woodworking classes under the direc- tion of C. L. Richards learn to make many useful things. It is necessary for the boys to become familiar with the machines in their uses and especially their safety factors. While learning the safety factors and different uses, the boys renew their acquain- tance with the hand tools by making first pen holders. After these are completed the boys can make what they choose. Some of the things completed are: Cedar chests, cabinets, desks, table lamps, end tables, coffee tables, magazine racks, trays and all kinds of modernistic tables. The purpose of the class is to provide experi- ences which will develop the individual into a useful, happy and successful citizen. The most important aim of the class is safety. Other aims are: 1. To develop in each student an active interest in indus- trial life and in methods of production and distribution. 2. To learn to select, care for, and use properly the things we buy. 3. To learn the appreciation of good workmanship and good design. 4. To acquire an attitude of pride or interest in one’s ability to do useful things. 5. To encourage habits of orderly methods of procedure in the performance of any task. 6. To have a knowledge and understanding of working drawing. 7. To develop elementary skills in the use of the more common tools and machines in order to make materials con- form to our needs. 8. To encourage the development of hobbies, or side-line interests. 9. To discover interests and aptitudes of students in the classes. 10. To develop in each student the habit of self-discipline which requires one to do a thing when it should be done, whether it is a pleasant task or not. 11. To develop in each student the habit of careful, thoughtful work without loitering or wasting time. 12. To develop in each student the attitude of readiness to assist others when they need help and to join in group undertakings. • ELECTRICITY • Electricity is the greatest force known to man- kind. Electricity is leaping ahead at an unbelievable rate the world over, and has become the most important factor in modern civilization. All of our marvelous developments in radio, television, electronics, radar, atomic bomb, and so forth, employ electrical power and principles of electricity. It is truly one of the world’s greatest industries. The student entering vocational electricity will receive training four hours a day and may start the course when a sophomore and continue through his senior year. Upon completion, a good student will be given a recommendation to industry, in securing a job. The training is on the job training with related information. Scene 38 — AriccntianAT ARGENTINE HIGH = ©THRU THE LENS • CLOTHING • Two years of clothing are offered to the high school girl so as to (1) develop an interest in being suitably and becomingly dressed considering the family income; (2) to develop a sense of appre- ciation of beauty of line and color and to learn how to adapt its uses to individual types; (3) to develop a reasonable degree of skill in the con- struction of a girl’s wardrobe. The first year enables the girl to learn the im- portance of being well groomed and suitably dressed. She learns the fundamental principles of construction, and how to use the sewing machines. In the first year of clothing the girl constructs a blouse, a skirt, a child's garment and two dresses. She also learns how to keep her clothing in good repair. The object of the second-year course in clothing is to develop a greater degree of skill in the con- struction of more advanced garments. Some of these are a wool dress, a rayon dress, the remodel- ing of one garment, the making of a suit or coat, and a formal or sheer summer dress. • JOURNALISM • Consisting of twenty-one members, the third- year journalism class was divided into three staffs for the Argcntian.

The ideals of nations have been expressed through art. The aim of this class is to enrich the student’s art experience through discussion and analysis of color reproductions, prints and rep- licas of representative works of a few great artists. Class work deals with clay, metal, and wood molded, carved and shaped with the student’s own designs under the supervision of Miss Maud Hewitt. The classes arc composed of both junior and senior high school students. • BIOLOGY • The work of the biology classes is studying the laws which apply to all living things and their application in both the plant and animal kingdom. The laboratory in which the students work has a south exposure which permits observation and experiments with growing plants and is well equipped with preserved material making possible the dissection of both plant and animal types. It has many models and museum specimens and more than sixty charts. Microscopes, stereoscopes and lantern slides arc available to the student for study. A large aquarium with running water and a variety of cages permits both the keeping and study of water and land animals • PHYSICS • Physics is a laboratory science open to juniors and seniors. It deals with the interaction of force with matter. Such subjects as machines, heat, sound, light, magnetism and electricity arc studied. Physics is an interesting and valuable subject because the principles lend themselves to measure- ment and demonstration by experiments, and be- cause they are widely applied in everyday living. The laboratory is well equipped with apparatus for both demonstrations and experiments. The physics students, either individually or in groups, perform more than fifty experiments during the year. The course is designed to help the student under- stand the physical world in which he lives and is in charge of F. S. Hoover. ® Scene i6 — Argentum ©AT ARGENTINE HIGH ART BIOLOGY PHYSICS Argentina — Scene 47 ©THRU THE LENS • PHYSICAL EDUCATION • The aim of physical education is to contribute to the goals of education through physical ac- tivities. A trained mind in a healthy body is the com- bination that counts most in life. The physical education course endeavors to make secondary school students physically fit to take on their various tasks in later life. It promotes a degree of health that allows one to live most. Physical education endeavors, through team games and individual sports, to develop a desire to continue a program of physical activities in later life. The objectives of physical education are many, but may be summarized as follows: 1. Development of organic power and vigor, by developing the heart, lungs and muscles. 2. Development of skills in team games, gymnastics, rhythms, recreational and safety activities. 3. Development of desirable character and social traits. 4. The development of appreciation of physical education through a knowledge of the techniques, rules, strategy, and history of the activity. • MACHINE SHOP • The machine shop class is intended for a boy who wants to become a machinist. The boy is in the class room one hour each day studying related information, which includes shop mathematics, a study of the construction and operation of ma- chine tools, blue print reading and other subjects. Three hours each day arc spent in the machine shop where actual experience on the machine tools is had. The shop is well equipped with modern up-to-date machines, including engine lathe, mill- ing machine, shaper, grinders, band saw, hardness tester, and heat treating equipment. The course is a two-year one and must be taken in the junior and senior years. The instructor of the machine shop course is D. F. Schultz. • AUTO MECHANICS • Realizing that several years of experience arc required to master a trade such as auto mechanics, the goal of this class is to give a good foundation for future building. Auto mechanics is a four-hour course revived this year, taking the place of aircraft mechanics. The twenty-two boys enrolled in this course are learning most phases of the trade. One hour each day is devoted to related information and three hours arc spent in actual shop work. Approximately sixty cars have been repaired in the shop, the work ranging from minor repairs to major overhauls. The cars repaired belong to the boys in the class, their families, or friends. The only cost required is that of materials or for such outside work as cylinder rcboring, crankshaft grinding, and other phases which the shop is not equipped to handle. Some of the new equipment that was added this year includes a Black and Decker valve grinder, cylinder hone, sandcr, portable grinder, clutch alignment tools, and a Devilbiss paint spray. @ § Scene 48 — ArgentianAT ARGENTINE HIGH© THRU THE LENS • OFFICE MACHINES • Office Machines offers the high school student instruction in operating duplicating machines and adding machines and in filing by various methods. The duplicating machines used arc mimeograph, mimcoscope, ditto, and spccdograph. Mimeograph duplication includes stcncilizing by the use of the mimcoscope and the typewriter; op- eration of the machine to produce copies, and care of the machine. Hectograph duplication gives the student ex- perience in making copies on the spccdograph and ditto machine from master copies made with car- bon, ribbon, and different colors of pencil and ink. The adding machine course emphasizes addition, but includes instruction in subtraction, multipli- cation, and division. Filing includes indexing and filing by several alphabetic methods, also by numerical and geo- graphical methods. A comparison of several dif- ferent systems of filing is included in this study. The instructor of the office machines course is Miss Grace Dale. • TYPING • The typing department of Argentine has won many contests, participating in Kansas state events, inter-state meets, a national meet and others of a smaller scope. All-time state records in both accuracy and speed arc held by the school. Contests sent out by Gregg Writer Awards pre- sented these people with cighty-word-a-minute pins: Shirley Liston, Glendora Lapham; seventy- word-a-minute certificates: Shirley Carriger, Glendora Lapham; sixty-word-a-minutc pins: Helen Ghrist, Peggy Simerly, Jcaninc Harris, Sue Scarlett, Shirley Liston, Mary Ann Buckman, Col- leen Gulley, Carol Robinson, Betty Jester, Shirley Lapham, Joy Vaughn, Wanda Overton, Glendora Lapham, and Loretta Sanders. A contest is held annually in which local schools in a fifty-mile radius are invited to participate. A trophy is awarded each year by the Kansan. This is the sixteenth year Argentine has competed for it. First place winners were: Shirley Liston, sec- ond year, Speed; Carol Robinson, second year, Accuracy; Anna May Cramblit, first year, Speed; Harold Stewart, first year, Accuracy. Many business concerns choose Argentine grad- uates for their employees as they have established a reputation for a high degree of skill for Argen- tine. • CAMPFIRE GIRLS • The purpose of the Campfire Girls is to keep the girls in worth-while activities, to develop thoughtfulness of others, helpfulness in the home, appreciation of nature, promotion of health and thrift. The group consisted of thirty-one girls who elected these officers for the year: Phyllis Brown ’51, president; LaRita Danneberg ’51, vice-presi- dent; Lila Hayes ’52, secretary; Elaine Small ’52, treasurer; Marvyl Strehlow ’52, scribe. They took part in the all-city Campfire Review held at Memorial Hall, March 29. By selling candy at basketball games, dough- nuts, and Christmas cards the girls made enough money to go to summer camp. The girls made favors at Easter for the children at Bethany Hospital. They had a Christmas and a Valentine party. = © © Scene 50 — ArgcncianAT ARGENTINE HIGH t OFFICE MACHINES • • • • TYPING CAMPFIRE GIRLS THIRD ROW -Small. Crane. StiRall. Tree- land. Schaeffer.
