IJThe boys put in a lot of time and hard work attempting to represent Juco in an able manner. The Grizzly Growl, speaking for the student body, salutes this year ' s team for its excellent sportsmanship and untiring work under adverse circumstances. jfThe prospects for next year ' s team look good. Many players on the first team were freshmen and this should mean that we will have a strong team next year. TThe men who lettered in football this year are: Stanley Young, Jack Shirk, Virgil Kelly, Roy Thompson, Calvin Jacoby, Glen Faunce, Harold Smith, Lee Brown. Dick Moss, Joe Fanello, Quentin Doty, Leon Cousland, Bob Hub- bard, Ike Fowler, Clifford Cherryholmes, Jack Thomas, George Widner, Ivan Rich, Fred Robinson and Ed Brewer. BASKl TBALL zsyl EE M The team this year not only played good basketball, but they also played the game in sportsmanlike manner. Tf ' Tuffy Robinson, cool and level- headed, made a most able captain. Even though the team did not rank high in the League standing, two of its members were given mention on the All State Team. Captain Robinson and Bud Thompson received this recognition. The pictures in the background show some of the good form and fire that the team had this year and also the cooperation and team- work which characterized the 1938-1939 Juco basketball season. IfThose men who lettered in Basketball this year are Ed Brewer, Otis Cross, Frank Gonzales, Homer Lear, Robert McClure, Martin Mahannah, Fred Robinson, Harold Smith and Roy Thompson. Spring Sports These pictures of Juco ' s track, tennis, and golf stars are not in the least deceptive. The teams look formidable, and so they proved to be in various meets and relays this spring. Quality was predominant over quantity in our track squad. The high point men, Elmer Cross and diminutive Bud Smith, were ably supported by our distance men, Frank Gonzales and Wayne Reed. Our hurdle expert, Keith Miller, lived up to his high school reputa- tion. The field event men, Tuffy Robinson, Francis Bell, and Martin Mahannah were consistent in their performance. The two mainstays of the relay team, Roy Boyer and Jack Shirk, were valuable, as is proven by the fact that., as yet, the team has never failed to place. IJThe wielders of the golf clubs and tennis racquets have acquitted themsalves commendably. They have been consistent in their efforts in glorifying the purple and the gold. Varsity Club Most familiar figures on the football field, basketball court, and track field this year have been these Juco boys. In game after game they participated for our Alma Mater. IJFrom a small membership the Varsity Club grew by the addition of football players and organized for the year. Among the activities of the club the co-sponsoring of the annual Juco-High School basketball game was an outstanding suc- cess. The spring activities also included a banquet and dance. . t „ res the meters o Cofr -- TheC tthech h aS o hy as e« 16 tbe source of J fi „ e ' Is Others w  rf an d m „hv ave their radios- Science Club Pep Clubs One windy March day a photographer climbed the steps and snapped the picture you see above, showing the Gold Diggers and Purple Pansies. These students, bedecked in their new pep sweaters- have supplied the backing for the pep of the Junior College. TJThe two clubs cooperated in holding pep rallies at the theatre and giving their best efforts to supplying pep through- out the games. Chief celebration of the year was the white-washing of the Junior College letters, followed by a chili feed. TThe clubs held banquets in honor of the members of the football and basketball teams. ye ar ha f0r table r «, Z  ? of Z a Ve us 4 W tOH ' em ( or ex c u .  % bTt h a T Pleas t ; Lne u  e, _— v t - ;; flo to t , ( fi-e Sc o erf ou 4 n 5 «ojfct Cks at e Miliar th All e girls ' ac rcel y We Bm I e f S0 , 8 a7so c ade s er e S e— -Pe Pe; --ea„ t?eAobo So?

The Council was successful in establising a ping-pong and general game room, but it is felt that a lounge room with better furnishings is badly needed. Securing bands for dances was another accomplishment. TJAmong future policies recommended were dormitories for out-of-town students, a more liberal athletic pro- gram, a publicity campaign to educate El Dorado as to the importance of the Junior College, and a radical reform in assemblies. Officers were Leon Cousland- President; George Grist, Vice Presi- dent ; John Newacheck, secretary-treasurer. Other members were Dale Thrasher, Oscar Brumback, Mildred Martin, Arden Butel, Bub Stafford, Hoyt Smith, Oliver Hughes, Delbert McNamee Eleanor Ellis, Gene Barnes, Rosemary Gfeller, John Newa- check, Bob Orr, Lowell Fowler, Don Plantz. Earl Forgy, Christine Hughes, and Charlotte Leap. Miss Beuchat, Mr. Shumway, and Dean Walker were the sponsors. Student Council Publications All of the parties, plays, scandals, sports, and activities were rolled into one and called Juco Life. These events were recorded in our official Junior College paper the Grizzly Growl. l|Mr. Greenbank of the Butler County News again allowed the publication of the Grizzly Growl in his newspaper. The staff was not large, but through the efforts of a few members Juco was furnished the news and the chatter typical of school. IJThe Journalism Club members are Betty Rose Whitestine, Leon McCreight, Eva May Patty, Mary Pauline Feder, Oscar Brum- back, Christine Hughes, Bob Stafford, Marguerite Logan, Mary White, Lovina Fowler, and Violet Hampton. The sponsor of the club is Mr. G. H. Crooks. _L Grizzly Growl Staff In the Grizzly Growl of 1939 the staff has attempted to change from the traditional style of col- lege year books by making the annual mainly a pictorial account of the year ' s activities through the use of large action pictures. Rather than catalogued material in write-ups a strenuous effort has been made to make the articles readable, short ' and in- teresting, somewhat in the manner of the modern picture magazines. IJThe Student Coun- cil elected Oliver Hughes as Edi- tor and John Newacheck as Assistant. They, with the aid of Miss Ruth Milford, faculty advisor, selected the rest of the staff: Christine Hughes, Winona Allen, Jeanette Penwell, Bert Dace, Mary Pauline Feder, Betty J anne Daniel, Bob Reed, and Bob Carter. Dramatics Here you see the work and the personnel of the two dramatic organiza- tions, Pi Delta Theta and Delta Psi Omega. The first and the last pictures are tense scenes from the fall play, Ceiling Zero . The second picture shows the members of Delta Psi Omega in what appears to be a solemn conclave. And directly beneath ap- pears the dramatics club- Pi Delta Theta, in its usual meeting place, Mr. Nixon ' s room. No scenes from the spring play, Seven Sisters, are giv- en here because it was produced late this spring, but those who saw it will remember it as a colorful and amusing comedy. After the spring play Pi Delta Theta held open house on the stage. IfBoth of the plays were very ably presented un- der the direction of Mr. Nixon, who is also spon- sor of the two Juco dra- matic organizations. — - ■■i™ George Grist, a leader in the forensic world, says that debaters have more fun. than anybody. What George real- ly means is that debaters meet more girls than anybody. In looking through our debate notes for the year we find Mary (1242 J) in Dodge City, Helen (476W) in Hutchinson, Helen (3427) in Tonkawa, so on ad infini- tum. But debaters work also, for to be even a poor debater one must have a thorough knowledge of the question which was: Resolved: That the United States should cease to use public funds for the purpose of stimu- lating business. It is readily seen F orensics that this question gives opportunity for a great deal of controversy and it is the universal opinion among de- baters that the more they study the question of pump priming the less sure they are what should be done about it. Included in the activities of the forensics squad this season were extemporaneous speaking oratory, formal debate, round table discussion, dramatic reading- and oratorical declamation. the six boys Above ate seen fl and sponsor ho MelVs cabUl6t Association - c0 Gto istiab Ass wen(jeU Tar . this year- ™ Wayne Bare «  at ltS Xnt ion Me- _ - - Ce - preS f e Mary-treasur- | freight as see rog ram W « rtbur as pros er, Barrett A BruW - chairtnan, ana has bac K reporter the de WUC rreely ot « s ttoe Childs gave orga niW- to the success ot « aS It d as student NeWa relative, bese council repress others boys with e Wto Qi interested m t . n com . ass ociation, wo fl mis sion group. nterest . conferences « hout the ing meetings many vcar- I ori _ ben etit of should recerve th y eprogi rng-- pentoaU CTety col ge « eu. junior Cones y.
