I ARGENTIAN 1947-1948 Published by THE SENIOR CLASS OF ARGENTINE HIGH SCHOOL Twenty-Second and Ruby Avenue Kansas City, Kansas EDITORS Norma Gish Beverly Hill Letha Kennedy SPORTS EDITOR John Morris BUSINESS Martin Markula Jeanette Perry FACULTY ADVISER Miss Frances E. Taylor Letha Kennedy, John Morris, Beverly Hill, Norma GishYou are a sight of beauty When springtime comes around; You're like a hand with fingers Stretching out o’er the town. Your loveliness is exquisite Made by a heavenly one; You’re a shelter of learning To every daughter and son. Our Father knows the work you do; He knows for He has seen So He gives Nature’s reward Through the campus of Argentine. Gale BushnellUNITY We dedicate this issue of the Argentine yearbook to UNITY—in the classroom, on the athletic field, in the home, in business and in civic affairs. We feel that the measure of the success of the individual is greatly in proportion to his ability to work or play with others and assimilate and ben- efit by the directions and ad- vice of those in charge. Unity between student and instructor brings scholastic honors. Unity between player and coach wins games. Unity between the school and the community, creates happy sat- isfied homes and successful graduates in business institu- tions. Unity between the com- munity and its city, state and country makes a wholesome government and a good place to live. Every successful endeavor is the result of careful planning, intelligent organization and the willingness to follow wise direction with a unity of pur- pose.MR. F. L. SCHLACLE Superintendent MR. J.

A FOOTBALL A Capitalizing on the fact that there were seven returning lettermen and about one hundred boys turning out for senior high football the Mustangs won four and lost six games this season. Two of the wins were in the Northeast Kansas League. Two new coaches were also a main factor this season. Kenneth I. Dick, former coach at Bertrand, Nebraska, took over the duties as head coach and Frank Scott was named his assistant. Roy T. Baker, the Mustang basketball mentor, acted as line coach. This year’s lettermen consisted of fourteen seniors, four juniors, and two sophomores. Somewhat of a record was set by the Mustangs in the Lawrence game as thirty-four passes were tossed and fourteen were completed on a very muddy field. Bill Holtom and Ed Hanson, All-Star tackle and end respectively, were elected co-captains at the end of the season. Chet Strehlow gained much recognition for his passing and ball handling for the “T”. Cus Burton, Ralph Ninemire, Karl Eldridge, Don Stephenson and Jack Walling were mentioned on several All-Star teams. a ARCENTIAN 1948 A a TWENTY-SIX aTHIRD ROW—Bowman, Burton, Cook, Doyle, Eldridge, Hanson SECOND ROW—Holtom, Ingraham, Kirk, Lawson, Lillich, Mullens FIRST ROW—Nail, Ninemire, Patton, Stephenson, Strehlow, Walling A FOOTBALL LETTERMEN A Another outstanding game of the season was the Rosedale game from which the Mustangs emerged a 6 to 0 victor. Both teams were fairly well matched as neither team had scored until deep into the final period when the Mustangs crossed the double stripe into pay dirt. Many games this season were played under very wet and muddy conditoins, especially the game with Shawnee Mission to which the Mustangs bowed 18 to 0. Coach Dick described the playing field as a “Sea of Mud.” In the Leavenworth game the weather condition was a little better and the Mustangs showed one of the finest exhibitions of offensive playing ever seen in the high school football. The Argentine-Wyandotte game was a tough game for both teams. Being traditional foes, both teams fought very hard and the goal line was crossed only three times during the entire game. Football gained the interest of many more persons than usual this year. There was a record crowd at the Wyandotte game. The largest paid attendance at home games in the history of Argentine high school was registered this year and the enthusiasm is expected to be even greater next year.

A BASKETBALL A Establishing a new high in the Northeast Kansas League, the Mustangs won seven and lost three games in league play and finished in a second place tie for one of the best records in several years. The result for the entire schedule was twelve wins and ten losses. In four of the ten games lost there were seven overtimes and a difference of six points between the total scores of Argentine and those of her opponents. Twelve first team letters were awarded this year. The boys who earned their third letter were: Edward Hanson, senior; Cus Burton, senior; and Bill Holtom, senior. Two seniors, Chester Strehlow and Karl Eldridge, won their second basketball letters. Ten boys who earned their first basketball letter were: Lloyd Mairs, Leon Reed, and Donald Stephenson, seniors; Robert Mullens, and Bob Doyle, juniors; Ralph Ninemire and Joe Valesquez, sophomores. Coach Roy T. Baker attributed much of the success of the season to the fine defensive work of the team. It ranked fourth in the state for defensive ball playing. Another important factor was that the team was not based on one man but worked as a single unit. All members of the squad played an important part in the team showing. Some of the highlights of the season were the games with Lawrence, Shawnee Mission and Wyandotte. The defeat of Lawrence, Northeast Kansas League and state champions, in the first encounter was highlighted by excellent rebounding by Edward Hanson. At one time in the third quarter the Mustangs led by a score of 21-8 before substitutes were sent into the game. a ARCENTIAN 1948 A a TWENTY-EICHT aSECOND ROW—Burton. Doyle, Eldridge, Hanson, Holtom, Mairs FIRST ROW—Mullens, Ninemire, Reed, Stephenson, Strehlow, Velasquez A BASKETBALL LETTERMEN A After bowing to Wyandotte in a double overtime early in the season, the Mustangs won the second game in a thriller which saw two last minute goals scored by Cus Burton. Both the Shawnee Mission games were very well played. In the first game, played at Shawnee, the Mustangs won by a two-point margin after a thrilling last half rally. The return game, played on the local court, saw a perfect defensive battle. The game ended 15 all. in what had been the best played game on the Mustang court in years. Argentine went ahead in the first overtime, but Shawnee tied it on a long shot with six seconds to go. In the second overtime. Mark Rivard of Shawnee made good his only shot of the game, a long one from near the center of the court, four seconds before the second overtime expired, and Shawnee won 19-17. The first Ward game was another highlight. The Mustangs led the unbeaten Ward team all the way until the last thirty seconds when the score was tied. Again the Mustangs forged ahead in the overtime only to have their lead wiped out by one point in the last 20 seconds of the game. The second team also completed a very successful season with fourteen wins and two losses to give it a tie with Shawnee Mission for the first place trophy in the second team league play. Over a three year period the Mustang second teams have won 42 games against 10 losses. The Argentine Junior high school team, under Coach Cody Kukuk, also had one of the most successful seasons in several years. It was crowned the 1947-48 city champion, winning 14 games and losing only 5 games. a TWENTY-NINE a A ARCENTINE HIGH aTHIRD ROW — Colvin. Mullins. Lillich. Stewart. Ninemirc. Hanson, Strehlow, Doyle.

A “A” CLUB A The “A” Club was organized in 1918 for the purpose of inspiring and encouraging young men to enter into the field of physical activities, and promoting closer relationship and sportsmanship between the young men of the school and the young men of other schools. Bill Holtom was chosen president of the organization; Edward Hanson, vice-president; Karl Eldridge. secretary-treasurer, and Chester Strehlow. sergeant-at-arms. C. J. Olander took C. E. Swender's position as sponsor of the "A” Club. The club sponsored a dance at the Legion Hall after the Wyandotte football game and a Leap Year Pie Supper in the gymnasium on March 25. Before the supper there was dancing in the gymnasium.

Edward Bowman ’48. and Eugene Thomas ’48. The team, under the tutorship of C. J. Olander, competed with various schools. There was no Northeast Kansas League formed because there were only three schools, Argentine. Lawrence and Shawnee Mission to form a nucleus. A local tournament was held on the Wyandotte courts April 23 and 24. The loss of the four lettermen is expected to make a big dent in next year’s team, but it is believed that there are plenty of next year's juniors and seniors to form a team. SECOND ROW—F. $.

The team played matches with Shawnee Mission, Atchison and Leavenworth to determine the four-man. two-man and medalist championships. The final match was played at Atchison, Friday, April 30. The four-man team entered the State meet at the Indian Hills golf club in Kansas City. Although he will lose two lettermen this year, Coach Hoover believes he will have a good team next year. a THIRTY-ONE a a ARGENTINE HIGH aA NUMERAL CLUB A THIRD ROW—Hill. Cobble. Huffman. Cai reft.
