The Argentian and the Mustang Advisor is James Hammer. This year’s journalism class was much smaller than in past years. There was only one journalism class composed of seniors. No sophomores or juniors were permitted to enroll in journalism. With the aid of the new dark-room, the journal- ism department was able to print and develop many more pictures of inter-school and extra-curricular activities. In this way, there were many more pictures of Argentine high school activities in the local papers. During the school year, the publications de- partment edited fourteen issues of the Argentian. It was printed at the Wyandotte County Record. The Mustang, edited by the Argentine annual staff, was printed at the Yearbook House in Kansas City, Missouri. It contains about twenty pages more than the past yearbooks have had. i- -JJ:.:— — -u„ — journalism class published a brochure for the night the new Argentine high school was dedicated. It contained pictures of the builiding and construction of the new school building, plus a complete history of the new addition and all the new equipment. Throughout the year, the Argentian gave tre- mendous advertising to events such as home- coming, football, basketball, track, relay queen, Christmas Sno-Ball, Junior and Senior Play, School parties, and many other school activities. At the end of the year, the journalism class held a picnic and everyone had a gay time. The girls stood the boys in a soft-ball game. You can be sure it was an interesting game as there are only four boys counting Mr. Hammer, and thirteen girls in the class. An "Annual Day" Party was planned and spon- sored by the journalism department to be held on f .. i-? irK7 ,u„ .A wvi y-teens ROW ONE: Obermeier, Marvin, Stronacji, Rumage, Peer, Gulley, Gray, Zagar, Bright- well, Leavey, Hale, Chambers, Dishman, Favrow, McCallop, Adcox, Keding, Miss San- kec.

Their best games were against Ottawa and Sumner. McCoys Mustangs showed the glow of greatness at times (they almost took Shawnee), but had trouble crossing the twin stripe. Bill Favrow, along with Baker, were named on the all-area team. They fin- ished the season with 3 wins, 5 losses, and 1 tie. ROW ONE: Head Coach—M. McCoy, Assistant Coach—H. Hoyt, Manager—F.

Argentine's roundball squad battled numerous problems this year as well as an exceptionally tough schedule, yet managed to accumulate nine wins. Wins number two and three were taken at Lawrence where the valiant crew captured first place in the Lawrence Invitational Christmas Tournament by defeating Garden City and Law- rence, the home favorites. Nearing the end of the season, the Pony quintet pulled a second major tournament upset by downing Ottawa in the semi-finals of the Class AA Regionals. Argentine had earlier eliminated Fort Scott and after defeating Ottawa, the tourney favorite, fell to Rosedale who went ahead to place second only to Wyandotte in the state finals. Although it was a heartbreaking season to the fans, with nine wins and twelve losses, after Mr. Kohl made some personnel changes about midway in the season the Ponies won 60% of their games from then on. Three losses were by one point, one by three points in overtime, and several others turned from victory to defeat in the waning minutes of the game.

With the shooting of Bill Favrow and the floor play of Frank Bustamante and Sam Robinson, along with help in the rebounding department by Melvin Larimore, Frank Petersen, and Jim Redmond, the fans saw a lot of really good basketball. We of the annual staff congratulate the team, Mr. Fred Kohl, head coach, who has just completed his first year at Argentine, and assistant coach Bob Allison on a most successful season.Above — Pioneer guard leaves the deck to block jump shot by (23) Phil Ross.

Ray Reardon and Henry Aiman, two versatile seniors,wcre elected co-captains to lead the thinclads through- out their schedule. This schedule included nine major relays plus the Big 7 In- door, State Indoor, Shawnee Mission Regionals, and the final State Outdoor meets. Four school record holders were among the returnees. Early season per- formances indicated that they would take up where they left off last year. Bill Favrow, who along with Henry Aiman carried Argentine colors at the state meet last spring, went into the season with two records already under his belt. He held school records in the shot-put (50 feet, 8V2 inches) and discus throw (139 feet, 0l 2 inches). Aiman, who led the scoring last year and set the school 180-yard low hurdle record of 21.2, was also a member of the mile relay quartet that set the school record of 3:33.6 at Emporia last year. Other returning members of that relay team were Reardon and Sam Robinson. Members of the varsity track squad were: (seniors) Henry Aiman, Bud Baker, Gene Baker, Vic Brightwcll, Mike Caroll, Jim Estes, Bill Favrow, Wendell Fisher, Charles Haas, Ronnie Holland, Jim Johnson, Bob McKenzie, Ray Reardon, and Jack Slater. (Juniors): Frank Bussey, Olin Bankhead, Bill Crain, David Crockett, Robert Davidson, Jerry Dobson, Kenny Duncan, Ray Mabion, Bruce Marx, John Nickum, Samuel Robinson, Darrell Sligar, and Earl Tyrus. (Sophomores): Albert Lawler, Leroy Maine, Harold Snyder, Norman Waitly, and Charles Kilgore a freshman. In the past, early deadlines have prevented Argentine yearbooks from de- voting much space to track. This year the annual deadline has been extended and the annual staff has attempted to capture some of the early season action although the season record and lettermen cannot be given here.
