We have tried to capture between these covers, through picture and word, the many scenes, situations and activities that have passed. Each new year builds its achievements on past history. It is the desire of the 1959 Mustang staff to pay tribute to the colorful background of Argentine. It is common knowledge that 1849 was the year of the gold rush, but few people know that an- other important strike was made just 100 years ago in Nevada—that of silver. Silver may have been important to Nevada, but to Argentine, some years later, it became the key to existence. The smelter processed the silver; the silver, in turn, shaped the town. "■ 7 . 'f u A - THROUGH CO-OPERATION if py In fact, silver was so significant that city fathers chose the Latin word "Argentine," which means 'silver town," as its name. Even the first band was dubbed "The Silver Coronets" and one of .the first treets became Silver avenue. Though time and progress have erased many of Argentine's early landmarks, new achievements lave come in their stead. Through the community's co-operation, Argentine's new school took its : lace on the landscape in 1956, while the smelter sketched on the first page of this book was de- troyed in the spring of 1958—to be replaced only months later by a symbol of our rapidly moving :ivilization—the 18th street trafficway, zooming within a stone's throw from the school. From this rich heritage comes our theme for the '59er. So—to you, the community, we dedi- :ate this Argentine high school Mustang, the '59er, black and silver. Si Cb AWE ENDEAVOR TO BUILD ... In 1892, one person had the distinction of being the first student to graduate from Argentine high school. The following year an enrollment increase saw seven students graduating. The grad- uation exercises took place in the old Opera House between 21st and 22nd streets on Silver. At| that time, the faculty still consisted of one teacher, and only three years of high school were re- quired for a diploma. By 1902, the enrollment outgrew the one-room stage, and high school that year was held in the old jail between 23rd and 24th on Silver. The cornerstone for the old north building was laid in 1908 at the location of the present school. In 1921 the east end of the north building was added. Several years later a shop unit and gym were constructed just south of the building. The shop courses at that time were comprised of woodworking and drafting. Need for a bigger and better vocational arts building was satisfied in 1940. The south build- ing, or old building as we know it today, was completed during the war years. One of the courses on its curriculum was airplane mechanics. The old north building was torn down in 1954. It had stood, sturdy as the stone it was made of, as Argentine's center of learning for 46 proud years. In 1956, out of the dust and rubble anq tradition of the stone building, rose a new educational symbol—clean, trim, modern and challeng- ing. High on a windy hill, Argentine high sits beaming and proud, yet humble and understanding. 4 ..

There are many intangible qualities taught by these organizations that can't be acquired from books. Included in attributes are co-operation, friendship, congeniality with one's classmates and the ability to lead. It is the purpose of the clubs and organizations at Argentine to promote these characteristics. Among the many clubs at Argentine, the "A” club, organized in 1919, is the oldest. The Mus- tang club started in 1923 as the Booster club, an all girl organization. Several years later a Pep club, consisting of all boys, was formed. The two were joined together to form the Mustang club ir 1933. Included in the early clubs were Senior High Honor society, Junior High Honor society, e French club, Le Cerde Fleur De Lis; a Latin club, Secietas Latina; several Campfire groups and an AH club. The Mustang club had the distinction of being the first club to sponsor an all-school annua formal dance in 1950, which took the place of a yearly dinner followed by a small dance. The Stu dent council originated the Snow Ball, annual Christmas dance, in 1955. Many of the old clubs are obsolete, but in their places are others—such as the Safety club, the Scribblers' club and the Tironians. All combine together for one joint purpose—to make Argentine a friendly and cheerful school. 40...

They were chosen from the upper one-third of the class. Results of an achievement test and the outcome of student and faculty elections determined the final 22. Patti Sankee headed the faculty committee in charge of the voting.

Campaigning like mad—posters ev- erywhere—late, late hours— and fun along with learning—these were just a few of the characteristics of Girls' and Boys' State. Sponsored by two American Legion posts and one auxiliary, two girls and four boys traveled to Girls' and Boys' State to learn how city, county and state govern- ment functions. Wichita was the site for Boys' State from June I to June 7, while Girls' State was held at Lawrence from June 8 to June 15.

Practice, practice, practice and work, work, work could well be the motto of Argentine's pep queens. After school and Saturday meetings, dominated by arched jumps and enthusiastic yells, characterized the practice sessions of the varsity cheer- leaders. Clad in royal blue sweaters and white skirts with royal blue inserts (and blue.and white shoes, too!), these five girls led Argentine’s pep club at all the football and basketball games.

Any one of them may act as substitute for any missing varsity cheerleader. Performing enthusiastically for all the junior high teams, the Colt club cheerleaders always practice dili- gently with the hope that they will eventually become a varsity cheerleader.

C., Kansas 51Representing the "cream of the crop" in instrumental music is the Pep band. This classy, flashy unit was selected from Argentine high’s regular band. This group is a very busy organization. It plays for all pep rallies, home basketball games and other special activities that may require the Pep band's service. In connection with the "Agricultural Hall of Fame," the Pep Band greeted the Kansas legislators at the Argentine railroad station. New uniforms made this year especially significant. All the mem- bers sported royal blue corduroy jackets. White lettering on the backs of the jackets spells out "Argentine." while a gold Mustang emblem signifies Pep band membership. Vincent May is the director of the 21 member group. Pep band members watch their director for instructions. RHAPSODY INClad in rich attiro, Argentine's orchestra always excols in the music they play. BLUE AND GOLD The orchestra, also under the direction of Vincent May, is comprised of 51 instrumental music students. Rendering the musical background at Argentine's dra- matic productions, playing in the Christmas program and taking part in the Spring concert were several of the functions in which the orchestra took part. Officers of the orchestra were Syliva Colclasure, president: Barbara Mullin, vice-president; Judy Pringle, secretary; and Carolyn Rumage, treasurer. From the band and orchestra, different groups, rep- resenting Argentine high school, went to the district con- test in Lawrence in hopes of achieving a superior rating to gain participation in the state contest at Emporia. Eighty-one Argentine students, various instruments before them, watch a pair of hands suddenly slice the air —and the band is given its downbeat by Vincent May, director of instrumental music. Participating in the Kansas Day activities at the American Royal Livestock and Horse show, marching in the Argentine Activities parade, the American Royal parade, presenting the "Rhapsody in Blue and Gold" and participating in the Spring concert were among the major roles of Argentine high’s band. The blue and gold clad band, under the direction of Vincent May, consists of 81 members. Officers were Ron- ald Parker, president; Bill Stockman, vice-president; Kathy Peer, secretary; and Faith Holland, treasurer. The marching band brought honor to Argentine on many occasions.WITH A SONG CHORALIERS —BACK ROW, left to right: K. Apgar. R. Da- vidson. R. Carr. j. Madrigal. FOURTH ROW: L. Foroman. J. Hopkins, E.

The girls in the group wore light blue dresses which were especially made for uniformity. White dinner jackets and sharply-creased black trousers form the boys’ attire. Without a song? . . . Not Argentine high. The Girls' Glee club, like the Choraliers. participated in all the major choral events of the school year. In addition, how- ever, the senior members song at the baccalaureate and commencement exercises. The 52 members practice daily during third hour, and proceeds from choral activities go toward the purchase of royal blue robes with gold satin collar-stoles.

Hobo Jerry Adkins rates sitting beside two little girls, Linda Hutchison and Jo- Ann Hayes. Little girls, little boys, hoboes and "you name it" can be seen in the halls of Argentine during the an- nual Kid and Hobo day which was held on April I. The Mustang club sponsors this special fun day. A new addition to Argentine’s social swing on March 21 was the Chez Headliner sponsored by the annual staff. Eddie and the Playboys sup- plied the music for Argentine's students who enjoyed dancing in the atmosphere of a French restaurant. Norman Waitley and Phyllis Ross were crowned Mr. and Miss Yearbook Person- ality. Kid and Hobo Day. On Kid and Hobo day Argentine's own chain gang was formed by these five senior girls.

The art classes and woodworking classes and the Student council, who sponsored the dance, combined their talents to make the gala Snow Ball. Eddie McKee, president of tho Studont affair a success, council, crowns the queen. THRILLS AND SERIOUSNESS Christmas assembly. Through the combined efforts of the instrumental, vocal and dramatics departments, the students of Argentine high school were presented with an inspirational Christmas assembly on Dec. 23. The Christmas story was por- trayed by students .from the dramatics classes while appropriate music was either sung or played by members of the vocal department and orchestra.n WE ENDEAVOR TO BUILD Sports at Argentine reached its zenith in the 1920's. At that time the athletic teams under the coaching of L. L. Watt attained an amazing record. Over a six year period the football team compiled a record of 52 wins against 8 losses; the basketball team, 134 wins to 23 losses. The roundballers played a schedule consisting of neighboring high schools and teams from Kan- sas City, Kansas, Junior College, the steel plant and the Rosedale American Legion Post. Games were postponed for such reasons as darkness, snow storms, rain and sometimes for funer- als. A football game with Bonner Springs was called off because of a polio epidemic. Up until 1930 all football games were played in the daytime, either on Saturday or Sunday afternoons. The first night game was against Wyandotte on their field. The football stadium was finished in 1938 at the cost of $40,000. Its seating capacity is 2,700. The stadium was first lighted by four 65 foot towers. Each tower supports 7—1000 watt bulbs. During the last year the stadium's lighting facilities were increased. The dressing rooms also re- ceived a complete face lifting. The early sports programs consisted of football, track, basketball and baseball. As time went on, tennis and golf were added to the curriculum. The program now consists of football, basket- ball and track. 78«VJ ... THROUGH PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENTMUSTANGS CHALK UP A win started the Argentine football season rolling as the Mustangs defeated arch rival Turner, 12-7. On suc- ceeding Fridays the Mustangs played five grid powers in the state, Shawnee Mission East, Shawnee Mission North, Leavenworth, Wyandotte and Ward. The coaches and boys didn't give up as they played the games one by one. An impressive showing in defeat against Sumner and a decisive win over Washington raised the somewhat dampened spirits of the team. The season was rounded out with a scoreless tie on a rain soaked field against the East Kansas Le ague cham- pions, Rosedale Wildcats. Leading the Mustangs for the 1958 season were these senior co-captains. J. E. Lattin, left, and Jerry Dobson. The varsity football players and coaches are shown below. BACK ROW, left to right: G.

Affer a slow start against Shawnee Mission North, the Mustangs, led by Head Coach Fred Kohl, racked up five straight victories before losing to Wyandotte by three points. Last year's disappointing 6-16 season was buried under the 14 impressive victories. The Ponies added Olathe to their schedule for the first time, defeating them twice. The Mustangs also had another "first" to their credit. They defeated Pern-Day for the first time in their four year rivalry. Many Argentine rooters felt that the best game of the regular season was the 70-56 win over Ward. 85NINE AWARDED LETTERS J§' DAVID LOVELACE JACK GIPSON Ken Sears scores two points on a fancy lay-up while two Olathe players look on.SEARS AND MOBERLY CO-CAPTAINS These boys formed the varsity squad that enjoyed one of the best seasons in the history of Argentine. They worked together as a team with no one player carrying the load.

Co-favored with Ward to win the regional tournament held at Shaw- nee Mission North, March 4, 6, 7, Argentine won its first two games with Ottawa and Shawnee Mission North with little trouble, but lost an over- time thriller to dark horse Sumner 72-69. Sumner had beaten Ward the night before in an upset. After trailing the entire game, Sumner launched a last ditch effort which brought them to a 63 point tie with 30 seconds remaining in the game. The overtime saw a determined Sumner gain victory. Argentine disposed of Ottawa with no trouble, building a big half-time lead and then coasting the rest of the way for a 66-45 win the first round. Shawnee North posed more of a challenge, putting up a rather stiff battle for three quarters before succumbing 63-55. 88TRACK DEVELOPS SKILL TRACK TEAM—BACK ROW, left to right: R. Wobb, D. Woavor, B.

The early businesses of Argentine consisted of the smelter and the Santa Fe Railroad yards. The numerous saloons across the street from the smelter were the only other businesses that amounted to anything. Construction on the large smokestack that was torn down last year was completed in 1901. Several months later, the smelter closed down temporarily but it never opened again. Half of the town s 6,000 people were associated with the smelter in one way or another. The shut-down almost turned Argentine into a ghost town. With the purchase of the smelter property by the Kansas City Structural Steel company in 1907, the business outlook of Argentine was on the increase. Also, by 1910 the population soared back to 6,666. Argentine became a part of Kansas City in 1909. By this annexation Argentine lost its city sta- tus, but it gained all the advantages of a large city. During the following years the business section spread out to the north and west to the loca- tion it occupies today. Thus, a present day Argentine was established, and is now known as a pros- pering center of progress. 92... WITH THE AID OF THE COMMUNITYw L CROCf% MACK LUMBER CO., INC.
