There have been a few who, discouraged by the steep and rocky road to knowldge, dropped by the wayside. Figures show us that we have only twenty-nine of the original fifty, although all told, we now number fifty-four. It was our privilege, while Sophomores, to have the thrill of entering the new building. Although at this time we had not reached the glory of Senior- dom, we were mature enough to appreciate the contrast, for, by this time, we had lost some of that care-free spirit which dominates every Freshman class, and we were ready to move along the path of knowledge at a steady pace. During our Junior year, we were impressed by the trouble and tribulation the Seniors of '15 brought upon themselves by their obstinacy when trying to produce a Senior Annual. With the close of the school year, we lost a tried and trusted friend in the person of Mr. Pett. With the opening of the fall term, under a new regime, we were prepared to make the last and stcepest ascent of the hill of knowldge. Our class has been a distinguished oneg and no one can say that we have hidden our light under a bushel. The class has produced some of the best athletes E. H. S. has ever had. Although we have no sages who will worry all night about things a fool never heard of, we have been able to attain the height that was our goal. And now, as we stand on the brow of the hill and gaze into the future, let us cast a glance behind, for Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never bro't to 1nin'? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, In days of auld lang syne?

Hath thy toil o'er books consumed the mid- night oil? Senior l Class History Looking down from the heights to which We, as Seniors, have attained, it seems incredible that we could have been as verdant as the later Freshman classes have appeared to us. However, we knew, from Mr. Pett's expression, that he considered us almost hopeless. His abrupt "Make haste, please," sent us flying to our classrooms, pale-faced and a mute terror in our hearts. But even the greenest of Freshmen can change and, by the time we were Sophomores, the faculty realized that we were possessed of even more than average intelligence. It is true, a few of our numbers have fallen while cross- ing the Latin Brook, but many have reached the other shore. Some others have been bright and shining stars in the Science World, while still others have crossed the deep valleys of English and Mathematics triumphantly. Our ath- letes ranked with the best in the school, and have helped win many battles for the Red and Black. Now, as the end of our journey draws nearer, and our thoughts turn toward graduation, we, the Seniors of '17, echo the sentiments of a contemporary poet: "I am thinking today of that beautiful time, The time I lay school days down, When, through wonderful bluf, exams I do meet, Will I have any use for my gown?

We played seven of the strongest high school teams in the state and won in all, and on these grounds we lay claim to the High School State Championship of Kansas. The season opened October 8, with a game with Chase County High School on the College fleld. This was the third game for the visitors and only our first, but our team put out a better class of football, and won, 15 to 3. At 10:45 a. m., on the next Friday, the team left, via the Katy, for Bur- lington, to meet the high school team in that town. The first half of the game was in favor of the locals, ending with a score of 7 to O. However, in the last period, we came back and won, 14 to 7. During the next week, every loyal High School student was stirring up pep for the game on Saturday with our greatest rival, Topeka High School. In this game we scored revenge at the tune of 40 to 0. One week later our team left for Kansas City, Kan., to clash with the high school there. It was an uninteresting game, in which E. H. S. held the final count against them, 35 to 0. This should have been doubled. Probably the best high school football game ever played in Emporia oc- curred November 5, with the Normal High, in which we won, 17 to 0. The next game was with the Normal second team. Our team was com- posed mostly of second team men, but they beat the "Yaps," 7 to 0. On November 19, Ottawa sent an undefeated team down to carry back our scalps, and in the first half they had things as they wanted them, the half ending in their favor, 6 to 0. But to every action there is a reaction, and we won, 14 to 6. On Turkey Day, we played Pratt High School, at Pratt. The game was played through a strong, cold wind, but we trampled the local team in the sand, 14 to 10. Eight veterans of this year's squad finished their football career in high school, when the final whistle blew at Pratt. Their places will be hard to fill, but there is some great material at hand, and we should have a winning team in 1916. Other men who should have mention in the Roll of Honor, who have not played in three or more games are Cecil Vermillion, George Cunningham, Gerald Rickabaugh, Ronald Finney, Floyd Kendig, Ernest Macy, Wallace Bitler, Laird Broadwell, David Wilson, Fred Griffith and Harold Grant.

Page 49 Basket Ball The basket ball season opened January 7, when the High School team, com- posed of Trusler, Workman, Wilson, Harr, Taylor and Weyler, defeated the strong Yates Center team by a score of 30 to 12.- With these veterans work- ing in such good form, with Mr. Robertson helping with the coaching, and with plenty of new material, which had worked out in the inter-class series of the previous season, a good basket ball season was assured. Two weeks later, after first semester flunk notices had been handed to five members of the squad, Grant, Williams, Potter and Hinshaw appeared on the line-up, and, by defeating Burlington, by a score' of 36 to 19, showed that E. H. S. was still to have a winning team. Five other victories followed, and showed that the new recruits were "delivering the goods." The season was a decided success, especially when we consider the hard luck that the squad met in the way of ineligible players. The team won eight games out of eleven played, and scored 287 points to their opponents' 197. The scores are as follows: Jan. 7 at High School Gym.. .. H.

S. 15-Quenemo 25 288 202 Page 50 BASKET BALL TEAM Page Sl The Football Personnel V LLOYD HARR, '16 "Rosy" played full back and was captain of the team. As a captain he was an ideal leader, as a player, he was the most brilliant one on the team, shining both in defense and offense. He could buck the line or run the ends equally well, and his tackling was deadly. "Rosy" closed his football career at Emporia High School, when the final whistle blew at Pratt last Turkey Day. He has been with us four years. VICTOR TRUSLER, '16, CCaptain, '15J "Vic" was our quarterback. Fast and level-headed, he kept the team on the go, not letting them get the losing spirit. You can depend on "Vic" to call the right play at the right time. He is a clever kicker and forward-passer, and a speedy man to skirt the ends and, best of all, a fighter all the way. "Vic" played his fourth and last year on the E. H. S. team last season. JAMES VAUGHN, '16 "Tubbie" played right tackle most of the year, but could play at full with equal ability. He is a tower Of strength in the line, and at full he is a hard plunger, and rips great holes in the opponents' defense. When "Tubbie" is called back a good gain is sure. He will be missed greatly by the 1916 team. MARION ARNOLD, '16 "Spit" played left tackle. He was fast and strong on defense, and on offense he always opened a hole and was good at carrying the ball. He was one of the most consistent players on the squad, went into the game to win, and worked hard until the final whistle was blown. "Spit" served his time out at the end of last season. LUTHER AUE, '16 "Lute" played right guard. He was a brick wall on defense, and frequently broke through his opponents and got his man. "Lute" also played tackle in "Tubbie's" absence and proved a fast man with the ball. He played his first and last year on the High School team during the 1915 season. DAN THOMAS, '16 "Rexall" was our star man on defense, smashing the opponents' interfer- ence and getting his man many a time for a loss. It was useless to attempt a gain around his end. On offense he was good at opening holes, and also pulled down forward passes in fine shape. "Rexall" served his time out at the end of last season, playing left end for three years. RUSSEL TAYLOR, '18 "Ruby" has made good at center, in spite of his light weight, and had worlds of fight the whole season. His pass was accurate and, on account of his length of physique, he made an ideal center. ' CECIL ALLEN, '17 "Teetle" played left guard. This was his first year, but he played like a vet- eran. He weighs 165 pounds, and every pound is muscle and nerve. "Teetle" played a strong game on both defense and offense. Page 52 FRED BROWN. '1'7 "Boozy" is a strong, yet quiet man, and is good at spilling the interference. He has a great faculty for receiving the forward pass. "Boozy" came to us from Oklahoma, where he had played two seasons. THOMAS FLEMING, '18 "Noisy" had his first experience in the mysteries of football, but he made good. He hits the line hard, and is always good for a gain. When playing safety he never misses a punt, and always makes a good return. He played left half. JAMES MACY, '17 "Jim" was the most consistent ground-gainer on the team. When a gain was needed "Jim" was there with the goods. He is a good open-field runner and a deadly tackler. This is his second year at halfback, and he will be with us again next year. MARK J AQUITH, '17 "Westie" came out for practice after two games were played, but was soon counted as an important cog in the football machine. "Westie" always gets the man with the ball, besides spilling two or three others. ERNEST HARVEY, '16 "Erney" was sub-end on the team, and acquitted himself proudly. He has a lot of grit stored away in his physical make-up, which qualifies him as a good football player. "Erney" graduates this spring, and loses a chance at the gridiron game next fall. FRED FLEEKER, '17 "Fleek" has shone up fine during the latter phases of the football season. He developed into one of the strongest line men on the team. "Fleck" did not earn his "E" this year, but will prove a valuable man next fall. REESE LEWIS "Welshman" was our sub-fullback. He was a mighty little fellow for this po- sition, but his littleness was very mighty. As far as pep is concerned, he has as much as any one on the team. He did not make his "E" this year. JOHN NANNINGA, '16 "Nanny" was great in opening up holes for the backs. And on defense he used his hands to a great advantage, the opponents seldom pierced "Nanny's" side of the line. He was a good utility man, and will be missed next fall. As there were so many tackles out, he didn't earn his "E," LAWRENCE WEYLER, '17 "Curley's" playing was as fierce and as full of fight as that of any man on the team. At half he played a strong offensive game. His ability to start quickly made him a hard-hitting backfield man. As a utility player, you could ask for no better.

Regular weekly discussion meetings have been held, with an average attend- , ance of forty boiys. At these meetings, various questions relative to a boy's life have been considered from the Christian viewpoint, and some Bible study work has been done. The Club stands for clean speech, clean sport, clean living. Christ is recog- nized as the center of every Well-ordered life, and service to Him-and the oth- er fellow in school who needs help-is the keynote of the members. f Page 56 I High School Senate Adriseru- ..,.

Page 59 ECHO STAFF Page 60 SNAP SHOTS OF ECHO STAFF The Echo Our High School paper, the Echo, has echoed every event and interest of E. H. S. during the school year of 1915-16- The first issue was published September 23, by the members of the Journalism class. A staff of ten mem- bers was then elected with Ruth O'Farrell as editor-in-chief, and Dan Thomas as business manager. Thus the paper was launched as a weekly publication instead of a monthly, as in previous years. The Kansas High School Editorial Association met in Emporia December 3 and 4, and the Echo, one of the largest weekly high school papers published, became known in many of the Kansas schools. The staff had numerous and various changes throughout the year, each member working in the interest of the paper. Ruth O'Farrell resigned at the end of the first term because of increased school work. Margaret Ramseyer was elected as the new editor-in-chief and faithfully fulfilled her duties for eleven weeks, after which she gave up the work. The seven remaining issues were published by Bessie Morris and Marie Addington, associate editors. The business side of the Echo was well taken care of the entire year by Dan Thomas, aided by David Potter, the first term. Next year a staff chosen from the contestants in the Junior try-out of this year will become the foundation of the Echo, and may their work be as suc- cessful and profitable as that of the past year. May the Echo forever head the list of school interests in E. H. S. and become the largest and best high school paper in the State of Kansas. Page 6I ATHLETIC SNAPS Page 62 FOOTBALL SNAPS ' ! 4 ORCHESTRA I - GEOGRAPHIC CLUB Page 63 Shakespeare Club The Shakespeare Club was organized last fall for the purpose of creating an interest in dramatic art. The name was chosen in honor of the three hun- dredth anniversary of Shakespeare's death. The club was at the beginning limited to fifty members. Never were there any less than this, and usually there was a long waiting list. Miss Secrest made a most able faculty adviser, and successfully piloted the club through the first year of its existence. The officers for the year were: Harold Edmonds, president, Lawrence Workman, vice-president, Victor Trusler, secretary, Preston Robinson, treasurer. On April 1, the club celebrated with a masquerade party in room 10 and later with a picnic. During Senior week, the club, assisted by the rest of the Sen- iors, will stage a Senior stunt, consisting of a minstrel show, the sketch, "Choosing a Career," by G. A. Caillavet, school songs and local hits. Page 64 Shakespeare Club Four plays were staged during the school year, "A Gentle Jury," by Howells, "A Bad Case," by H. C. Bunnerg "The Mouse Trap," by NV. D. Howells, and as a climax to the year's work, the club joined in the community celebration of the Shakespearean Tercentenary with a scene from "As You Like It." The casts follow: "A Gentle Jury:" Harold Edmonds, Mabel Cannady, Virginia Haynes, Ruth Brown, Bessie Morris, Ruth Hill, Eva Reiber, Lucile Humphreys, Mar- garet Ramseyer, Harriet Baker, Clara Smith, Florine Teichgraeber and Ruth O'Farrell. "A Bad Cases" Clora Riggs, Earle Armstrong, Frances Kirkendall and Lucile Laird. "The Mouse Trap:" Harold Edmonds, Marie Addington, Clara Smith, Margaret Braucher, Ruth McKee, Ethel Northington and Edna Thompson. "As You Like It:" Lawrence Weyler, Earle Armstrong, Lawrence Lock- wood, Mike Ptacek, Urban Brown, Ruth Hill, Dorothy Haynes, Lucille Hum- phreys, Victor Trusler, Ernest Retschlag, George Sellcck, Clora Riggs, Vir- ginia Haynes, Margaret Taylor, Nettie Anderson, Hortense Miller, Gladys Fansler, Mary Louise Parrington and Leona Reynolds. Page 65 l Senatus Romanus The Latin Club is one of the wide awake clubs of E. H. S. The purpose of the Senatus Romanus is to promote a greater interest in the affairs and cus- toms of ancient Rome, and at the same time to afford a short release from the tension of persistent study. Our club consists of about fifty members and has for its adviser, Miss Moss. Each member wears a pin, which is a sprig of laurel, with the letters HS. R." engraved in purple. The club meets twice a month. There are two consuls, who lead the meetingsg two praetors, who are the judgesg two quaestors, who act as secretaries and treasurers and guard the conduct of the members. In meetings, roll is answered by Latin quotations. Interesting talks have been given by members of the club on Roman mythology and customs. At every meeting one famous Italian painting is shown and explained. Some- times we are entertained with Latin songs or piano music. In February, a party was held, at which every member wore a Roman toga, The officers wore purple bordered togas and the others pure white. The club colors-purple and white-were used in the decorations and refreshments. Again in May the club enjoyed a banquet, at which they forgot they were Americans and donned the Roman togas. They reclined upon couches to eat a typical Romana "Cena."

Another thing which makes the grass grow in the grave of our memories is that the football season is over for twelve months. It was surpassed by basket ball, which, in its turn, has breathed its last, but has left a lusty successor in baseball, the thriving child of Spring. But now to the description of the all-important occasion: On Friday evening, December 10, about 8 o'clock, a crowd of the "unattached" high school boys began drifting into the Mit-Way. For about fifteen minutes the crowd wandered uneasily through the building, strolling through the cafe, and into the banquet hall, where they inspected the tables, which the waiters were loading down with eatables in preparation for the coming feed. At the end of that time, the boys who were lucky enough to secure "dates" be- gan to arrive, each with a young lady at his side. The boys now withdrew to the orchestra balcony, and there anxiously awaited the return of the girls, who had gone upstairs to remove their wraps, to rearrange their rumpled dresses and mussed hair, and perhaps to dust their noses with their powder puffs. The philosophy the boys were ex- pounding while all these vanities were being cared for, really deserves men- tion in history, but the present writer feels incapable of recording the opin- ions expressed. The dinner, a three-course affair, was planned by a committee consisting of Mr. Robertson, Miss Hamilton, and Mr. Titus. It is needless to say the football boys felt justified in making up for the Thanksgiving dinner they missed at Pratt. After the tables were cleared the speeches began. Mr. Morrill made an admirable toastmaster. Miss Burney gave a clever toast on "Angles on the Game." Mr. Cole discussed "A Close Shave." Other speakers were Victor Trusler, Lloyd Harr, Dan Thomas and Earl Armstrong. During this part of the program all the games of the season were recalled, and the victory at To- peka especially was gloated over. But, finally, as all good things must have an end, the banquet broke up after the singing of "The Red and the Black." Everyone said the first all- school athletic banquet was a success, and all hoped for the same sort of celebration next year. Page 78 FF A .

A set of questions was sub- mitted to prominent students of the school, and below are the most truthful of the answers. What is chapel? "It is a place to discuss the latest scandal."-Alice Richards. "A convenient time to pow-der my nose."-Eunice Forbes. "Good opportunity for speech-making."-1Dan Thomas. Suggest a motto for some teacher's door. "Blessed are the merciful."- R. W. Titus. "Too'late, Too late, You cannot enter now."-Cook. "Who enters here leaves hope behind."-Miss Hamilton. "A stitch in time saves nine."-Miss Williams. "Come in without knocking: go out the same way." -Miss McNabb. "Here fools rush in where angels fear to tread."-Mr. Gray. What is your idea of absolute happiness? "No thesis to write."-History Students. "To get skinny."-Lucien Pyle. "To get I-plus in a physics test."-Ethel Northington. "A cottage for two hung around with football trophies."-Vic and Marie. "To be the most conspicuous girl in the school." Kathryn Harnit. "For the sterner sex to keep their coats on."-Latha Daniels. Who is the biggest bluffer? Luther Aue, first. Wilbur Shires, close second. Someone said Mike. He must have voted for himself. Who has done the most for his class? Tom Concannon, owing to the stepping out into the social circle. David Potter pulled down the window curtain one day. What is the best course in High School, according to your experience? "F1irtation."-Oscar Teichgraeber. "Front step-ology."-Buss and Florence. "First course of the Senior Banquet."-John Nanninga. The Physics course got one vote and that was from Harold Spiker. Somebody said, "Why, of course." Biggest cinch? History, highest vote. Chemistry, close second. Physics was eliminated, because Ruth stuffed the ballot box. What is your idea of misery? "Getting stuck in the river."-Marion Arnold. "Making up time in study hall."-Harold Edmunds. "Getting ex- pelled."-Marie Jones. "To be bald-headed."-Mr. Titus. "To iind all the exchanges carried off."-Earl Armstrong. Where will you be eight years from now? "I'd rather not tell."-Miss McLeod. "On the stage, married, old maid, or dead."-Clora Riggs. "De- pends upon somebody else."-.Faye Vaughn. "Still here."-Rosy Harr. Page 152 CLASS IN BOOKBINDING Page 83 It was about 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the day on which the Y. M. C. A. boys gave the play, "The Tramps' Convention." Some of the boys were dressed up in their tramp togs advertising the play. As I said, it was about 4 o'clock, and a certain boy was very busy taking a history test. When he chanced to look, what was his surprise to see his teacher, standing at the window, waving at someone on the outside. He stood up at his seat and looked out. Then he beheld a man, arrayed in togs that looked as though they had never seen a wash tub. Again the man waved, and again the fair teacher responded with a graceful wave, The surprised boy could hold in no longer, but let our a roar of laughter. At this the teacher turned and snapped, "You may go." He left, but was not gone long before he came back all out of breath from running up the stairs, as he is very fat, and running does not agree with hin1. "He's coming up here," he panted. "Who?" shouted the teacher. "That man you waved at." With that she sprang to the door and locked it securely. For, upon looking a second time she saw that the man to whom she- had waved was not one of the boys dressed as a tramp, but a real one-one of those ''Have-you-any-old-umbrel- las-to-fix" kind. The teacher made the boy be very quiet. Soon, sure enough, there was someone trying to get in. Finding the door locked, however, he moved on. After some time she unlocked the door and let the boy out. She now has re- vised the old motto: "Look seven times before you wave." "Here! Don't climb over that fence, go down to the gate," unceremon- iously shrilled a feminine voice at a bald-headed class adviser of our faculty the other afternoon, while on a class picnic. His John B. having blown across a high barbed-wire fence, this sprightly class adviser attempted to show his athletic ability by climbing the fence. This he did and, after re- covering his hat, he was hurriedly returning when this order from tl1e owner of the place fell upon his ears.
