Since then there have been more than 2,000 graduates, two successive school buildings, and many tradi- tions and customs. Graduation from EHS has become a family tradi- tion among families such as the Flanders, Seitz, O,Donnell, Cadwell, and Allen families. These are only a few of the families in which succeeding generations have gone to EHS and acquired an undying loyalty to their school. Above and to the left is the class of 1894. When they were seniors there were only three years of high school-Freshman, Junior, Senior. There were few electives and school was from 9 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon. The class motto was, "To the stars through difficulty." In order to graduate all the girls had to read an original es- say and each boy had to give an original ora- tion. This was done at the commencement exercise on the stage of the Masonic Hall, now the Golden Bell Theatre. After the establishment of Ellsworth in 1867 and the coming of the cattle trade in 1871, Ellsworth had become a cowtown of the frontier. In 1875 the railroad moved west, taking the business which had made Ellsworth famous and infamous. So Ellsworth turned to agriculture, and religion and education were part of this new life. 1906-Emma White-Hummell, Edith Fishburn-Trubey, Lillian Brown, Dollie Flanders-Allen, Carol Pohlman, Charles Wahl 1907-Florence Cadwell-Bates, Carrie McLaughlin, Jessie Hissem, Nora Phelan, Henry Hoffman, James Nelson, Susie Phelan, Roscoe Holt 1908-Harry Becker, Lena Bender, Fred Curry, Georgia Forkner, Ruth Freeman, Emma Grubb-Rolfe, Leo Hain, Lee Hoffman, Ruth Huycke, Bernice McLaurin, Florence Shade, lzora Summers-Strstman, Blanche Thorpe, Roy Baldwin, Louis Barofsky, Bessie Helm, Alma Hummell, Carl Nienke, Mary Kulick, Edda Higham 1909-Grace Allan-Sheridan, Florence Anderson, Elizabeth Bisbee, Mabel Brown, Ray Eldridge, Mabel Faris, Josie Flanders, Ruth Flanders, Rita Work, Ethel Nunamaker, Grace Cook 1910---Agnes Fisbbum, Florence Wearing, Julia Murray, Leila Schmitt, Dessie Hall, Pearl Sheldon, Helen Becker, Edna Cook, Pearl Smith 1911-Violet Cochrane, Vera Beyler, Mildred Harmon, Edna Shade, Lillian Allan-Bailey, Stella Duley, Clair 0'Donnell, Willie Spicer, Thomas Hite, Harold Huycke ,Ma 2, 1. l' .Q ' A - ,M A-...Atty f 1 la. . 1.1. . lata. asas-Iain-klslkbex-Jf-M The class of 1901 was the first in this century to graduate from Ellsworth High School.

Basic education was the foremost purpose with college preparation the final product. There were few ac- tivities, organizations, or athletics. In 190-lv there was no graduating class because in that year EHS became a four year high school. ln 1906 EHS fielded its first football team. Football lasted only two more years because of lack of interest. 1916-George Allen, Meryl Baker, Albert Brubaker, Flossie Clemmnns, Myrtle Curtis, Agnes Dolecek-Hloucal, Sylvia Dolecek, Nellie Duley, Roy Flanders, Alice Flanders, Wilber Hoffman, Bruce Hutchins, Emil Janou- ack, Olive Jennings, Minnie Mayer, Gladys 0'Donnell, Arthur Palmquist, Robert Patterson, Glen Patterson, Vera Rogers, Chester Rogers, Evclina Watt, Francis Wearing, Vin:-ent Wilson, Hazel Work 1917-Lloyd Bryan, Dorothy Carter, Marie Church, Dorothy Day, Vera Fishhurn, Tommy Foote, Leslie Fowler, Hortense Hoffman, Christine Kyler, Lewis Meek, Kenneth MeCrory, Eva Merkel, Adena Nienke, Albina Novak, John Novak, Emil Prochaska, Anna Slechta, Adaline Souchek, Ralph Veatch, Nat Woods, Elmer Huseman 1918-Bessie Adams, Gertrude Allen, Mary Bartunek, Allan Beatty, Eva Bower, Mary Brink, Ethel Chapman, Hazel Cline, Blanche Doleeek-Allen, Clara Grant, Elsie Huseman, Katherine Johnson, Nannie McCoy, Bessie McCoy, Kathleen O'Donnell, Nira Robinson, Anna Saunders, Viola Schmitt, Joe Seitz, Katherine Shaw, Mabel Smith, Mildred Storey, Vera Svaty, Robert Tanton, Raymond Urban:-k, Daisy Warner, Rose Warner, Tommy Wilson, Louise Woods Main street at the turn of the century The biggest event of this decade was the arrival of O. J. Silverwood in 1908. For 39 years he was to be the superintendent of Ellsworth Schools. In 1908 music was first taught by Miss Culembeck. The Fairchild building was the home of the high school during this decade. The city library was in Fairchild until the new classes in domestic science and manual arts required classrooms. 1919-lrene Adams, Charlotte Albright, Arthur Armbrust, Amalia Bren- ner, Janet Day, Ruth Fishburn, Fred Flanders, Earl Gamber, Lou Grothusen, Ernest Keelcy, Hazel King, Ida Kottman, Richard Malaby, Stephen Moravek, Emil Nienke, Ruth Radiel, Evelyn Schmitt, Eunice Seitz, Fred Souchek, Harvey Storey, Blanche Tanton, Beatrice Wanasek, Helen Watt, Magdalene Wolfe 1920-Carlisle Albright, Iva Allen, Ruby Allen-Sniischny, Albert Allen, Amalia Bartunek, Dorothy Beem, Myldred Beighley, Edna Carey, Doro- thy Carhart, Elizabeth Day, Leonard Durr, Jessie Flanders, Nell Funk, Virgie Graham, Edwin Harris, Hazel Hart, Robert Hein, Grace Hohl, Anna Koltmann, Arthur Krachy, Archie Kyle, Lawrence Larkin, Ruth Nemeehek, Marie Patterson, Harold Reaume, Rose Reiter, Marjory Rice, Eilert Schwerdtfeger, Janice Shaw, Edna Warner, Harry Wilson, Georgia Zcrzan 1921-Ethel Bryan, Georgia Brenner, Melvin Campbell, Grace Cox, Lucy Cline, Lydia Erdtmann, Laura Freeman, Leon Griffin, Harold Grothusen.

At the beginning of this decade girls were the proficient EHS basketball players. But after the construction of the gymnasium addition to Fair- child the boys' teams were good-taking the 6th District Championship in 1916. The academic side of education was stiff. One of the two foreign languages offered-Latin and German-was required. There were few electives. In 1912 Manual Training and Domestic Science were offered for the first time. The topic of the 1912 Debate Team-Harry Hahn, Paul Hoffman, Fred Coover, Howard De- muth-was, Resolved: that the pending amendment to the Kansas Constitution granting women the full right of suffrage should be adopted. The class of 1918, first to be graduated from the new high school building, started the tradition of handing the key to the next graduating class. 5 The Taller, an annual, appeared in the spring of 1912. Push was a monthly magazine written by the students during the 1912-13 school year. ln 1920 the Athletic Association published the pam- phlet Oh Boy! to tell about all the activities of the high school. This was the decade of 1910-1920, full of prog- ress, new ideas, and fun. Barbara Janousek-Foote, Ellen Johns-Dawdy.

Tim lfolt, 1959 Our school life together started long ago. Many of us started kindergarten together. ln l914T in the first grade at Fairchild were 21 of this year's Senior Class. This was the first class to start school after Joel Martin became Superintendent. And this is the first graduating class to have attended school in the new grade building. for that huilding was finished for the sixth grade. The Class of 1959. with T0 members. was one of the largest classes in EHS as freshmen. Since that first year the class has lost lil students and gained four. a net loss of ten. Out of 38 student offices in EHS. 26 are held hy seniors. With the exception of the freshman year the class has consistently headed the honor roll. Accomplishments . . . yes! But we will remember . . . painting the streets . . . the junior-senior Prom . . . the masquerade party . . . the Hi-Y Bean party . . . the CAA initia- tion . . . all of these will be a part of the rope of the past for the senior of 1959.

"THE UNGUIDED MISS" Junior Class Play Tuesday, November 18, 1958 Director: Miss Lineback Business Manager: Joyce Daniels Stage Manager and Crew: Roger Novak, Bob Black- burn, Fred Lutz, Keith Ogburn, Duane Borman, Rudy Rodriguez, Barbara Dolecek, Carol Katzen- meier Only one more year and we shall leave the halls of Ellsworth High School behind us. But we, the Juniors, shall always remember this year. The most thrilling event of the year was the J unior-Senior Banquet and Prom at which we showed the Seniors our respect for them and the leader- ship they have given us. We proudly wear our class rings which signify that we have lived up to the responsibilities of being Juniors. Our successful magazine sale and produc- tion of the Junior play have prepared us for some of the tasks of leadership. With these experiences we look toward the privi- leges and responsibilities of next year - our Senior year. CLASS OF 1 9 6 0 U .. xvva ix' ' -. liz' .o-s' 'J 1 V7-it v'. A -e 5 X.

In 1953, Miss Lineback became a sponsor and in 1957 Mr. Robert Parks became a sponsor. This organization gives the students the opportun- ity to work with the faculty in outlining t.he functions and policies of the school. The cooperation of the Stu-Co members helps build a basis for a better and more democratic school. The Student Council has done many things through- out the years to help the students. As the 1952 El Kan said, "They put out a handbook which is given to all students. It contains valuable information which students might need. The council sponsors dances after both football and basketball games school party." The president of Stu-Co is responsible all the necessary announcements and for programs in assemblies. He is elected by body and the other officers are elected by members. Student Council representatives and an all- for making introducing the student the council are elected by the class members in a class meeting. The president is Ivan Kanak, the vice president is Derrill Gwinner and Kathy Dumler is secretary- treasurer. The seniors and juniors have four representatives from each class. The sophomores and the freshmen have three representatives from each claw. There are now two sponsors, instead of one, as it was in the beginning of the Student Council. , QQ ,A 2? in M. 3 0 4 ' ff W Q? 5' I E 1 W : g 1 U LI gp ' , , .. Q . V Q ' X05 ' 11 'KA' it - - V 1 1?

I i Because our school and our community are rooted in the past we can look with understanding at the present and we can face the future with confidence. From the classes of the past have come those tradi- tions which are part of our school life today. As we go down the halls of the school we see the pictures of those classes-the second and the third generation of students identify themselves with the students who preceded them and who are kinsmen. Of course school was different 80 years ago-or even 30 years ago. So. to give a picture of our school through- out the years. we present glimpses of the school life. the students. the community and we list the alumni. over 2000 of them. who have gone through the halls of this school. Some of them have gone far away. some are still part of our lives here-hut all of them. like us. say with pride, "We are from Ellsworth."
