EUGENE SOUDERS HISTORICAL SKETCH OF THE EMPORIA HICH SCHOOL N the year of 1912 the Emporians and the Board of Education realized the need for a modern high school in this city. The rapid growth of Emporia made it impossible for the school as it was, to accommodate the large num- ber of students. The Emporians could foresee the on-coming students and therefore on April 2, 1912, bonds for 5132000 were voted on and carried by an overwhelming majority. After this time the architects and contractors were chosen and the work began. The architects were from I. I'I. 'Felt and Company of Kansas City, Missouri. The contractors were from T. H. Johnson and Son of Salina, Kansas. The building was to be built 102 feet by 175 feet, three stories high and a basement. The ar- chitecture of this building was the adapted classic type. After two years, 1914, the Emporians realized their dreams. The school was completed and was what they considered perfect. The complete cost including furniture was S1SS,000-a small sum for so great a school. The building was com- pleted, ready for work, on April 1, 1914. "Emp0riu's first High School" As you view the front of this massive building, you are surprised with the striking feature of it. The large stone entrance, which has two immense Ionic columns of Bedford Stone on each side is the outstanding feature. The basement is of carthage stone, but better structure is of Tliamond Vitrified brick, backed up with Buffalo pauing THE OLD GARFIELD BUILDING blocks, with Bedford Stone trimmings and cornices. There are at present 44 rooms of which 35 are classrooms. The only change in the rooms was the partition between Room 10-A, which constructed the present music room. The new equipment of this building was put in the Printing Department, new lathes in Manual Arts and new furniture for Domestic Art Department. Counting other mis- cellaneous objects the cost has been only about 53,000 since 1914. In 1934 a project for un- employnient was given. At the beginnings of our new school we had 'only L9 teachers-26 at present. There are many outstanding features of this building both structure as we have mentioned, and in rooms. The basement contains a large gymnasium, 45x76, with all necessary accessories for boys and girls respectively. Also have seven well built rooms for Manual Training. Also various other rooms for different phases of Manual Training. Another feature of the basement is the boiler and fuel rooms, plenum room with its steam coils, motors, fans, and apparatus for automatically controling the heat. On the first floor are the Principal's office, Superintendent's office and that of the Board of Education. The Domestic Science room ffoodsj is one of the most outstanding features of the first floor. It contains a very modern equipped kitchen, pantry and diningroom. Classrooms for Mathematics, Music room, Grade Supervisors room and the observation gallery for the gym, accommodating three hundred persons are also On the first floor. The second floor also has its pride. It is the large and spectacular study hall, partitioned by glass from the library. The east end of the second floor has the rooms for the commercial course as typewriting, bookkeeping, etc. The other classrooms for history, English being close to the library. The G. R. restroom is located here and also the Mary White room or colored girls' restroom. The third floor is proud of its large auditorium with a seating capacity of 900. The stage is of good size and it has a large balcony. It is well equipped and with the 1931 seniors' gift of a vel- vet curtain the auditorium is really beautiful. The auditorium has been repainted an attractive color. Laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Physiology, Agriculture are on this floor. The other rooms are used for languages with the exception of the two rooms for clothing. These are very modernly equipped. The stairs of this building are very wide and comfortable. The two stairs near the front lead- ing to second floor are very attractive. The landing has glass cases containing awards won by the school. Sanitary restrooms are located On each floor. The school is equipped with sanitary individual lockers on all floors. The lighting system of the rooms is very good. Each room with four well areaed windows-of course artificial electric lights are in each room to be used when necessary. A clock is in each room, controlled by a master program clock run by electricity. The building is piped for vacuum cleaning system. Telephones are also conveniently placed. The heating and ventilating system is very fContinucd on Page 355 Vg., 4 ,,.,..,.. , .. ,V.. ,- . ...H-. .W ,W ..

On this night five young women and three young men received their high school diplomas from the late D. XV. Morris, fa- ther of XVarren Morris, of the Morris Drug Com- pany. Every member of this class is living to- day. The members of this 1884 class were: Livingston Jay Buck, who still lives in Emporia, and is a bank official. Nettie T. Miller fnow Mrs. R. C. Ten Eyck of Santa Fe, N. M.j, who wasvfhe "Mary Pickfordu with long golden curls of this class. Alexander A. Reeves, colored, was employed by his schoolmate, Livingston Jay Buck, some years ago in the bank in Emporia. After inheriting some money he moved to Den- ver, where he lives.

McCarrollj, is a physician at Coachella, California. Mrs. Jean G. White has lived in Portland since 1912. For six months Mrs. White and Mr. Swope planned this reunion of the eight members of the 1884 graduating class. The reunion was held in Emporia, May 22. "Although most of us have kept in touch with each other these fifty yearsf' says Mrs. White, "little did any of us dream that we would all be together again as we were Thurs- day evening, May 22, 1884, in che W'hitley opera house when we received our diplomas." In 1884, the graduation custom was for each Senior H to deliver an oration, or recite an essay .. av .. qnxoauu, 15, ve? raw' dx nav' UDB' that 1 hs-111Rc,..nnl"'Q,,ii1 :naw ,of 8,41-e N, we H, mv al' was 0 ,4 he had composed. This was done and the grad- uates afterwards were seated on the stage and after delivering orations they received bouquets and other gifts. On either side of the stage on small red chairs sat a small boy and small girl. Their duty was to deliver the gifts to the class and put the bouquets in baskets. One of the two, the boy, fell asleep during the long program, and the girl on the other side, now Mrs. Charles Ryan, was much disturbed over the prospect of serving both sides of the stage. The invitation, a double thick cardboard folder, was printed in dark blue and red with gold edges. They con- tained the class song, "We Are Leaving the Shoref' written by Lee M. Swope, and the "Or- der of Exercises." The members of the class have been corre- sponding with each other for the last few months. Mrs. NWhite says that this will probably be "our Last Round-Up." TIME HAS WROUGHT MANY CHANGES Twenty years have wrought many changes in our course of study. Some years ago the Board of Education and other important members real- ized the need of dealing with the individual stu- dents instead of with the group as a whole, as they had previously done. It was probably not necessary to think about the course of study twenty years ago as people were not very much interested in education then, or we might say there was not as good a chance for education twenty years ago as there is today. Everything changes as time goes on, which is true in the case of our course of study. At the beginning of 1914 the College Course was the only course offered and you know this course only prepared one for going to college. The Board as well as the students realized that all students could not go to college, so after a great deal of meditation the General and Com- mercial Courses were added to the curriculum. In the last twenty years Hygiene has been placed in the course of study as a required subject. Some of the new subjects which have been in- troduced in the last twenty years are Music Har- mony, Orchestra, Band and Printing I, II, III and IV, Agriculture and Journalism. In making these changes the idea of Kingsley's objectives of Secondary Education were kept in mind, namely: to teach the student the use of his leisure time, to make him a worthy member of the household, to make him a good citizen, to develope his character and to master the fun- damentals or the tools of learning. All of these objectives are very evident in our course of study. For leisure time we provide music, art, literature, dramatics and others. These subjects train the individual the right way to spend his leisure time. W'orthy household membership is another objec- tive which is taught through our Home Eco- nomic Departments and Manual Training. Citi- zenship is another important objective which is emphasized in the classes and the Hi-Y and G. R. Clubs. The G. R. and Hi-Y are two Christian clubs in our school which stand for everything that is "good and uplifting." CContinucd on Page 851 X .,, Q , ....., 1 -A A fy: . . 'law - 1 ANOTHER VIEW' OF SENIOR X' Many have been the changes since we moved from the old Garfield building into the present Senior High School building. The Garfield building, which stood a short dis- tance south and west of the present building, faithfully served its time, Its wooden steps were worn by the countless feet of students tramping up and down from one floor to the other, year after year. At one time it housed, not only the four High School grades, but also the sixth, seventh and eighth grades. An addition, built on the west side, was a joy to the parents, faculty and students. It contained a large assembly room and study hall combined. Wheim the Literary Society meetings were held in this room, the parents sat in the rather uncom- fortable seats without a word of complaint. Then came the day when the old building was vacated and the new building was used for the first time. The students were called upon to help move and it did not take long to make the change. Scarcely could we believe that there were to be so many modern conveniences in the new building. We were to have a new, up-to-date gymnasium, a study hall seating two hundred with a fine library conveniently located near it, a beautiful auditorium seating nearly a thousand people, a modern hot air heating system, a thermostatic cooling device so that the rooms would not be- come too warm, fine, large classrooms, restrooms, spacious offices, and up-to-date laboratory, Man- ual Arts and Home Economics rooms. S. U. Pett was Principal of the High School when the move was made. How proud he was of the new building! The curriculum was broad- , u O ened. New courses were added. Mr. Pett re- signed after several years to take up Social XVel- fare work at the Henry Ford Automobile Plant in Detroit. Later, he was promoted to the man- agership of one of the departments in the factory. Mr. Pett was followed by R. R. Cook. Mr. Cook made many friends here. He was a man of fine character and had a pleasing personality. After several years, he accepted the principalship of the Topeka High School and later became Principal of the Roosevelt Senior High School in Des Moines, Iowa. NVe were saddened to hear of Mr. Cook's death early in February of this year. The writer of this article was elected Principal upon Mr. Cookls resignation. Several thousand students have graduated during this principalship. Many of them have been outstanding. Probably, the banner year was in 1924 when our High School won three state championships: in Scholar- ship, Music and Basketball. Our school has been honored again this year with the state basketball championship. This year the largest class in the history of our school graduates. The entire school wishes them the best of success in whatever they may under- take. Your Principal, Rieia E. BROWN. -- - -- BOARD OF ED MR.

UCATION J, ,........-. . . .,.,..7k f l I xv W x HISTORY OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATIO FOR THE PAST TWE TY YEARS The Board of Education, as well as other fea- tures of the city schools, has changed in the last twenty years. Therefore, every person who has ever been a member of the Board or who has had any connection with the Board should be praised for the years of service he or she has so gracious- ly given to the community. Probably you would be interested in knowing the general work our Board of Education does. It has entire supervision of the business affairs of the schools, hires all employees and does innumer- able things that are necessary to the welfare of the city schools. The Board is divided into vari- ous committees which supervise the work as- signed them such as: finance and claimsg build- ings and grounds, teachers and salaries, supplies, fuel and furniture, and rules, regulations and dis- cipline. Six members make up our Board of Education, three being elected every four years. Many mem- bers serve more than four years, however. You probably thought all the officers of the Board were also members of the Board, but only the president and vice-president are members- the secretary and treasurer are not. The treasurer is elected every odd year at the city election and the secretary is elected each year by the Board members. L. T. Bang was president of the Board from 1912-1917 when he was replaced by H. E. Peach, who served as president from 1917-1925. J. T. Adams succeeded Mr. Peach as president and he was followed by F. B. Heath, who is president at this time. This Board, which I have been explaining, has accomplished wonders in the last twenty years for you know it supervises all the city schools in Emporia and has improved not only this Senior High School alone, but various other buildings of the city system. As well as adding new improve- ments to the old school buildings they have super- vised the construction of several new buildings. Take our own Senior High School for instance, the Board had direct control of the construction of this building. In 1912 the president of the Board, L. T. Bang, the vice-president, C. W. Law- rence, and J. O. Wforkman helped plan this build- ing together with the building committee whose members were G. A. Hege, Fremont Miller and Charles H. Dabbs. These men made this build- ing the pride of our city and much credit is due them for its success. .As time went on, the Board realized the need of additional buildings and the replacement of some of the older buildings in which to train the younger generation properly, so plans were made for the following school buildings: the Lowther Junior High School in 1925, Kansas Avenue building in 1927, Mary Herbert building in 19295 and a school building site on Washington street was bought in 1932. Besides taking care of the school buildings, the hiring of teachers and other employees, the Board has supervised many changes in the curriculum as recommended by Mr. Lowther, our superinten- dent. Some years ago the departmental system was introduced in the grade schools and many changes have been made in the courses of study in all of our city schools in the last twenty years. A few years ago the Board employed four dif- ferent supervisors in the grades, but two of these have been discontinued, at least for the present, and at this time we have Miss Delore Gammon as grade supervisor and Miss Edith Bunch as music supervisor. The Board employs a school nurse, this depart- ment having been installed about fifteen years ago. Miss Stella Klein is our present school nurse and the duties of her office are unlimited. Opportunity rooms for problem children were introduced in the city schools by the Board several years ago, the first of these rooms being located in the Senior High School building, but later moved to the Union school, and in a short time these rooms were added both at Maynard and the Junior High School. However, at present only those at Maynard and the junior High School are in operation. On the whole the Board of Education has a very great responsibility, but they seem to like it, and have made it a Board of which we are justly proud. FACULTY MR. C. U.

It cannot help but appeal to the ambitions and hopes of the coming Seniors of the future. To BILL C1,1-:Vi-,u, the expedition leader, and his aides, Lister, Baltz and Deputy, the personnel of the E. H. S. '34 owes an enduring debt of gratitude for the successful flight. THE UND12Rc1,,AssMIiN, who did not get a chance to make the journey this year, envied them, for it was the essence of adventure. RICE E. BROWN, CIOIIZIIILIIYIIUV. This log is the official record of the stratosphere flight of the good ship E. H. S. '34. The scribes of the log had dictographs secretly installed throughout the ship by the means of which, choice bits of gossip were picked up and record log-fashion on the right-hand page, while the columns on the left are devoted to the official records and data of the flight-the conduct of the crew, mutiny, convictions and the scientific observations of the Cosmic Ray, together with the recordings of the latitudes of grades and the longitudes of knowledge. FRIDAY, SEPT. 8, 1933- Day spent packing baggage and securing tickets. Local meteorologists report favorable weather for the ascension next Monday. MONDAY, Sept. 11, 1933- Vfeather clear. Commander Brown sig- nalled for the departure of the E. H. S. '34 at 8:10 a. m. Take-off accomplished without great mishap. FRIDAY, Sept. 8- Scribes were cruising along the halls. George Scharenberg traipsed to the Registrar's office and said, "Guess you've put me in the wrong cabin, Miss Kahnf, "What have you, 29A?" she asked. UNO, that's quite all right -at least it's the one you're signed up for. Is there something the matter with it?" "No, I just didn't expect overstuffed furniture and such an elegant room," George dazedly replied. MONDAY, Sept. 11- Tommy Nixon crashes the gate and makes the balloon bv climbing the guy rope as the craft slowly lifts. His great weight caused the gondola to oscillate wildly. When the Prewitt twins were taken to the office to be identified, it was discovered that Carl was slipping through without a ticket. During the interview in Mr. Brown's cabin, Bill spoke up, "I don,t think it's fair, I've had to buy two tickets and Carl not any." FRIDAY, Oct. 2- End of the third week of the flight. Have been flying blind consistently most of the time. Many of the crew have regained equilibrium, but a few are still floundering. FRIDAY, Oct. Z0- Air speed indicator burned out-too much speed. Air pocket-severe jolts experienced. Grade cards out. FRIDAY, Oct. 2- After we had been up three weeks, Harold Irey made a sign that he was hungry again and a French chef fired up and condensed the fog as did one of Howard Deputy's "Flames," creating a dainty morsel for Harold. FRIDAY, Oct. 20- The Up and "At,em's" have made a new dis- covery-they're not flying blind any more. "Let's be romantic on this trip," said Arthur Clausen to Margaret Moon in the moonshine. FRIDAY, Nov. 10- Just another period of smooth sailing. THURSDAY, Nov. 30- Rate of climb indicator shows satisfactory progress. Passed the borderline of gravity. Rogers fell out. FRIDAY, NOV. I0- "Where's the Gulf of Mexico?" asked Mil- dred Oliver. "Down by the Philippine Islands," answered Charles Young. THURSDAY, NOV. 30- After passing the border line of gravity, Franklin Rogers who had indulged in too much turkey, rode a nightmare out the door. Thanksgiving celebration disrupted. FRIDAY, Dec. 22- 12 in. Restlessness of crew noticeable. 2:25 p. m. Study hall mutinied. Cabin passengers held until 3:20 p. m. MONDAY, Jan. 8, 1934- Most of the crew sick with air-mindedness and just recovering from nervous shock over Rogers' return. g ? FRIDAY, Dec. 22- Several Christmas messages sent and received by ether waves and recorded in the Radio-log: -To the Faculty of Em-Hi: "Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?', -To Agnes from Chester Parker: "Goodnight little girl of my dreams." -To Harold from Ruth Knouse: "Harold doesn't live here any more." -To Harry from Helen Karr: "You've got to be a football hero." XVhen we were just well started, we saw an- other balloon, from Pawnee Rock, ascending. We dumped a great amount of ballast and beat them up in the stratosphere. Ricey winked his regrets below us. F MONDAY, Jan. s- While Virginia St.Clair and Verle Frost were looking out the door for Santa Claus on Christ- mas eve, who should enter but Franklin Rogers, the prodigal, on the same nightmare. He had a round-trip ticket. FRIDAY, Jan. 26- 50th air beacon passed. Many sharp un- excuseds cause punctures-temporary delay for Senior Dinner.

FRIDAY, Jan. 26- At the Senior Dinner: A colorful event-beautiful girls in evening frocks and handsome boys in full dress. Powder puffs, lipsticks, and marcels much in evidence. MONDAY, Jan. 29- "I see the moon and the moon sees me, and the moon sees somebody that I'd like to see," recites Lloyd Henderson. Now that the moon is turned off, Lloyd is stranded, but it doesn't seem to bother June Capps and Bob Hoover in the least. WEDNESDAY, Feb. 14- Passed the international date line. New spring styles in couplets appear. Moonlight filters through the retreating blue haze. Shops feature hearts and valentines. FRIDAY, March 9- Stormy weather! Indications of sleet in dense cloudsq Tests-the lambs scurry from the lions' dens. Big mass meeting, in corridors. WEDNESDAY, Feb. 14- -Poets doing a rushing business in hearts. -Cupid's messages sent by wireless. Western Union refused to risk the burning out of its wires. -Radiograms recorded include: To Ruth Schottler from John Douglas: "Faint heart ne'er won fair lady, they say- my heart is strong for you this Valentine's Day." To Mary K. from Bob McAdoo: "Just for the sake of an argument with Holtz, wonit you be my Valentine?', FRIDAY, March 9- Dick Lord saved Lloyd McClellan from mak- ing a forced landing in the class of '35, but the Prewitts hold together. Honor Society hopes doubtful. MCNDAY, April 2- First week of April. Bad luck-sleet seals door-no escape. Parachute jumping aban- doned. Balloon's attraction greater than the earth's pull. FRIDAY, April zo- From bad to worse. 145 below-Condition caused by the cold glances of the faculty as they handed out many P's and F's. MONDAY, APRIL 2- Our Bonnie mascot is always Wright except when she,s wrong. Bad luck is right! April Fools is on Easter Sunday. Flying fools all the year 'round.

Footspace in corridors at a premium. We sug- gest pen chaining to prevent straying. Helen Stanton is threatening to go on a rocket ship to Venus for a breath of air. She says that this old balloon ascension is too tame. SATURDAY, May 26- Noon. Just wakaned. To sleepy at 3 a. m. to complete record. A glorious Landfall. The presentation of diplomas--then the beautiful party in the shipis salon closed the cruise of the E. H. S. ,34. SATURDAY, May 26- Largest class ever graduated from Em-Hi. Most diplomas received. Seniors wave goodbye. Underclassmen move up. Copious tears shed. CContinued on Page 355 lfLlZAl'1l'i'l'l"I IHCKOX "A 1111'1'1'j' l11'111'1 11111k1'fb 11 cf11'1'1'f11l l'11I1IlfL'II 11111'1'." Ci. R.

I should have expected some one who had been more musical in High School to take up work like that, like Victor Steg, but he's pretty busy with his expedition. He is trying to establish a new alti- tude reeord 'for balloons. I. I believe they will make a new record. I don't see how they could help it with Thomson Holtz along to keep the balloon well inflated. II. I'm surely glad Bill Yearout stumbled on to that serum for the cure of laziness.

But how do you suppose that Arleigh Meyers let his mustache get so out of control that he had to become a Bolshevik and go to Russia? I. Maybe he used some of Glenn Crayk's famous hair tonic on it.

The class colors, silver and rose, were used in decorations, place cards, and programs. Bill Clever, the class president, was the toast- master and the program included a piano solo by Thelma Bain, a vocal solo by Thomson Holtz, a musical poem by Socorra Ramirez, and a clarinet solo by Victor Steg. The next part of the program was dramatized in a very novel fashion. It started with the "Ascension and Ballast" by Grace Anderson and Maurice Gordon, "Revelations of the Cosmic Ray" by Gwendolyn Mounkes and Bob Morse, and "Log of the Trip" by Bob Anderson. The whole of the story was written by Daniel Hirsch- ler and Wendell XVilliams. Historical Sketch of the Emporia High School Cffuntinued from Page 25 modern. It is known as the steam blast system. Two large low-pressure boilers furnish the steam. Two large intakes at each side of the main en- trance brings fresh air down in contact with the heated coils. It is forced to the respective rooms by a 15-horsepower fan. A thermostat, located in each room, automatically controls the tem- perature, not letting a variation go over 2 degrees above or below that at which the instrument is set. The mosaic title floor and white enameled brick wainscoting is the most pleasing feature of the first floor. The building was occupied in April 2, and for- mally opened to the public on May 3. Tn January of 1934 the auditorium was re- painted in attractive colors and the halls were also repainted. Various rooms over the building have been repainted. The C. W. A., under N. R.

Tzwfziy-si.x' of 1934 Seniors Arc Cfzoswz M rf 111 !7f'1'X. The National Honor Society Is a National Organization Whose Members Excel in Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. One of the most outstanding features of this High School is the National Honor Society. In 1924, March 12, this society was organized in this school, however, this school had a local so- ciety two years previous. The purpose of this society is to encourage a student to live up to his best at all times. Every year a number of students of the graduating class are chosen for the society on the basis of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Various things are required under the four things just mentioned to be a member of the society. A student must show some ability as a leader both in the community and schoolroom. He must show success in respon- sibility in offices which he might hold, give ideas to the school and exert the type of lead- ership which will influence the good of others. The service of a student is judged by the willingness to render service to the school when he is called to do so. Ready to be on commit- tees to represent the school in any inter-school competition and show courtesy to the visitors, teachers, and students. The character of the individual must have he highest standard of honesty and reliability. I-Ie must uphold the principles of morality and ethics, he must co-operate with the regulation the school and cultivate a desirable person- ality, and be able to meet responsibilities promptly. Scholarship is another feature of this society. One must be a member of the upper third of the graduating class in grades. Grades are essential. Members of the National Honor Society chosen are: First row: Maurice Gordon, Vic- tor Steg, Ruth Knouse, Irl Ritter. Second row: Arlene Sanders, Gwendolyn Mounkes, Lloyd Henderson, Thelma Bain. Third row: Daniel Hirschler, Catherine Minaker, Robert McAdoo. Fourth row: Goldie Hobbs, Milton Poole, Ruth Schwindt. Fifth row: Clifford Rock, Dorothea Lutt, Mary Jane Diggs, Charles Young. Sixth row: Louise Putnam, Wendel Williams, Elizabeth Peters, Robert LaGresley. Seventh row: Paul Terry, Laura Ward, Lois Jean Wade, Theresa Hellmer. QConitnued on Page 7Sj ,W My A LARCE CLASS FOR I935 The Junior classes of the Emporia High School seem to improve from year to year, and this year has brought to the school one of the most active, witty and vivacious classes in the history of the Senior High School. The class has been represented in all of the school activities throughout the year. NVith the assistance of the Junior boys, the school basketball team won the state tournament at Topeka One of the Junior classmen was chosen a member of the all-state basketball team, thus winning an- other honor for the class and the school. On the gridiron, the football team was en- couraged and strengthened by husky Junior class- men. They were also in evidence on the track, many of the best and swiftest coming from this same Junior group. But all of the athletics were not left to the boys. The girls of the class have basketball, vol- leyball, bounce ball, horseshoe, golf and tennis, sports sponsored by the G. A. A. Club, in which many of them became very efficient. Beside the above sports, the orchestra and band drew heavily on the class for musicians, the boys' and girls' glee clubs rang with joyous Junior voices. The class furnished the operetta, "Jerry of Jericho Road," with the majority of the char- acters and many of the minor parts. These ac- tivities created a great interest in the class. The various school clubs boast of their Junior membership. The honor roll made up every six weeks would often seem small indeed if all the Junior names were crossed off. This year the Juniors have patiently applied themselves to American and European History, English, Foreign Language, Domestic Science, and Manual Arts. Some of the more industrious stu- dents have undertaken a few of the subjects re- quired next year, such as: Chemistry, Physics, and Constitution. The annual election of class officers was held at the beginning of the second semester. Chester Patton, president, was very efficient. Agnes Thomas as vice-president was a very talented as- sistant to the president. Our hard earned cash was entrusted to Dale Buchanan who has proved a worthy treasurer. Betty Cremer was elected to record the class activities and has proved to be a commendable scribbler. This year has been one of numerous successes as it draws to a close and the Juniors prepare themselves to play the role of Senior next year, they wish to bid the graduates of 1934 an affec- tionate farewell, thanking them for excellent example and the inspiration they have contributed. They sincerely hope that they may be able to fill the places the Seniors have vacated with such credit to themselves, that they may be an example and an inspiration next year to their underclass- men. 37 f hx Yo, First row: Eleanor F0wlerfCharles Nash, Marguerite Brooks, Norlene Cooley, james Grubbs, Helen Sutton, Harold Brickey. 4 Strom! row: Fred Shaw, Vernon Pennington, Mary K.

These above students are not only leaders by choice of the student body but also by their own ability and merits. To be a leader one must have: initiative, ability, and scholarship. These students have these qualities just mentioned. By reviewing each student's activities you will find they have rendered much service to this school. Bill Clever is honored by being the President of the Senior class and also elected "King" of our school in 1933. He also has been in High School plays and indulged in many other ac- tivities. The Junior class elected out of their outstanding leaders Chester Patton for their president. He also has par- ticipated in many of the High School activities. Our High School paper, "The Echo," has been made a successful project through the effcrts and leadership of its editor, Weiadell Williaiiis, and its business manager, jimmy Grubbs. This book, "The Re-Echo," was made possible by the great effor: and responsibility cf its editor and business manager, Arlene Sanders and Lloyd Henderson. These two students have given practically all of their time to the success of this book. The G. R. and Hi-Y are the two largest organizations in our school. Their leaders, who are honored with the presi- dency of each organization, are Ruth Knouse, president of the G. R., and Edwin Theel, president of the Hi-Y. These 42 l students really show their ability of leadership, having charge over three hundred students in this school. Eunice Jane Loomis is president of the Sophomore class and has made this class one of thc most outstanding classes of this High School. G. A. A. is girls' athletic association of our school. Doro- thy Resch is the president, who is a sport loving girl and a leader in that line of work. This organization requires athletic leaders and it chose one of its best for their presi- dent. The Up and Atom Club, the science of our school, scien- tifically elected Daniel Hirschler as its leader. As president he presides over the meetings and programs in a very good fcrnl. The glee clubs of our school also have their leaders in song. This year the president of the girls' glee club is Dorothy Myers, who also was elected Queen of the High School this year. Arnold Lister is president of the boys' glee club, who also has indulged in other outstanding ac- tivities of this school. Harry Kinter and Russell Walker are co-coptains of the football team and have showed their ability as leaders. Bill Eagle is also a leader of our school. He holds the position as president of the Sophomore Hi-Y and he is well fitted for this office.

If one arose early on Saturday, February 17, and tuned in on his radio he might have heard some- thing like the following reports coming over the air lanes of both major networks: "Here's a flash from out in Kansas, Emporia, I believe. It appears that E. H. S. has elected a King and Queen to reign the remainder of the semester over the 720 students enrolled. But to get to the point, Maurice Gordon and Dorothy Myers were the lucky Couple and amid shouting and cheering, they were crowned with a 11'10St regal cardboard headpiece by Arlene Sanders, editor of their yearbook out theref' Announcing the event to a capacity crowd in the Lowther Junior High School gym during the Topeka-Emporia fray, Lloyd Henderson told of a thrilling finish in both classes with Dorothy Resch and Harry Kinter, popular athletes, coming to the finish line only a few votes behind the favorites. The entire race was close, we are told, and the following contestants have no cause for grief: Marjorie Baltz, Betty Adams, Grace Anderson, Dorothy Resch, Harry Kinter, Howard Deputy, Wilburn Morris, and Bill Clever, last year's cam- pus "king.,' The report continues with the information that votes were obtainable in batches of 100 by signing a pledge card for the school annual, the Re-Echo. Concluding, the flash states that all COHECSILIIIIS attended the cerenony attired in the familiar black and red "EH sweaters of the institution. The throne and decorations were in the same color. And we might add to this model broadcast that to make things exact, Gordon got one hundred eleven votes while Kinter was very close behind with one hundred eight counters. Managers re- ported an intense liking for all contestants and a general feeling that whoever won, that person would be just as good as his or her opponents. But, "large oaks from little acorns growf, and this small difference in votes made a lot of differ- ence in the outcome. As the observing reader might have noticed by this time, the picture shows some husky athletes behind the contestants. Yes, the Y. M. C. A. tumbling team performed for the royal couple and gained the coveted honor having their pic- tures taken with aristocracy. Incidentally, Al- bert Cornwell, jolly Emporia photographer, took the snapper, and you see a lifelike reproduction staring you in the face. 43 . if yy We 1- . fi f i O .A, .

Some years ago a special class was devoted to dramatics and speech in our school. Due to financial reasons, however, the class time has been cut. This year the dramatics class meets on Tuesdays, Thursdays and sometimes on other days when preparing a play. Miss Miller tries through this class, to give each member a chance to show his acting ability. Several of the one- act plays given this semester are: "His First Dress Suit," "Submerged," 'tRed Carnations," 'tHyacinths for Christmas," "Call It a Day," "The Real Gloria," "The Rehearsal," and "The Lunatic." A musical comedy, "Jerry of Jericho Road," was given as a G. R.-Hi-Y benefit. The Senior play was a "hair-raising" mystery, entitled "The Ghost Train." This will be a well remembered event to all who saw it. Each and every actor in these plays did his very best to "put his char- acterization across." Much credit is due Miss Miller for the great improvement in dramatic work in the last few years. Much credit is also due to Miss Snider and Miss Sowerby, who directed the dances and music for the operetta. Dramatics is one of the most enjoyable subjects taught in this school. It is an informal subject. Each student has a chance to express himself in the way he chooses. It is a class where one learns to express himself to others as well as to imper- sonate different types of people. Dramatics correlates with other subjects in our curriculum, not only English and Literature, but also Lighting Effects, Stage Construction, Cos- tuming, Printing, Music, etc. THE l934 + First f7iCfllY'L'Z Miss Snider, Miss Miller and Miss Sowerby, coaches.

As they were passing these comments were heard: "That was the best play ever pre- sented here." "The songs and dances were beautiful." "This Emporia High School is some school when it comes to producing real actors and actressesf, These comments were occasioned by production of the operetta, "jerry of Jericho Road," a G. R. and Hi-Y benefit program. These compliments, just mentioned, were well deserved. To realize the truth in this statement one would almost have to be present at the presentation of this operetta. The theme of this operetta was very clever and modern. Alan O'Day, a young millionaire, bought a ranch in Wyoming and turned it into a tourist camp. The play takes place at the tourist camp. Sandy Bank is secretly in love with Alan O'Day. Although he wishes to marry her she will not consider be- cause her mother, Lettice Bank, wants her to marry for money. Geraldine Bank is hiding from the police at this ranch and is discovered by her cousin, Sandy. John Dray- ton, a friend of Alan O'Day, also comes to the ranch and falls madly in love with Jerry. Mr. Bean, a clever English- man, caused much merriment along with Lettice Bank and Amos Bank, Sandy's parents. Mimi, a flapper, appears on the scene and causes trouble between Jerry and John. Hunter, the detective, also surprised everyone in his inten- tions. Everyone seemed to want to buy Jerry's land. The cause being that oil had been discovered on it. John Dray- ton wanted it and so did the detective, Hunter. No one but Sandy knew just who Jerry was and her identity was not known until the end of the play. Jerry seemed to come out of nowhere. No one knew where she lived. It was found out that she lived in a large rock. Uncle Peter, a very superstitious old man had told an old Indian legend about the rock and everyone was afraid of it. Whenever anyone came near it, Jerry would wail the unfortunate Indian Maiden's Love Song and she was left alone. At the close of the story oil is discovered on Jerry's land and she sells it to Mr. Bean, the supposed dumb Englishman, who is president of a large oil corporation. john Drayton is also a member of this corporation and is forgiven by jerry be- cause she finds out that Mimi, the flapper, is really Mr. Bean's wife. Sandy relents and marries Alan. Hunter, the supposed detective, is found out to be a crook. Dora, Let- tice, Amos Bank, and Uncle Pete furnish much humorous entertainment. Many colorful and clever dances were pre- sented in this operetta. Much credit is due to the sponsors of this successful operetta: Miss Miller, speech director, Miss Sowerby, music directo'g and Miss Snider, dance director. "Ghost Train" Thrills and chills and gales of laughter mingled and mixed with one another as the fascinating melodrama, "The Ghost Train," was presented on May 23, in the Lowther Junior High School auditorium by the 1934 Senior class. The story dealt in the main with rum-runners and nar- cotic smugglers. ln a peaceful village in Maine there lived a superstition of twenty years standing, about a Ghost Train which flashed by in the dead of night, swinging the scythe of death. The rum-runners used this to their own advan- tage, careless of life and property. They terrorized the section and it was only through the cleverness of an appar- entlv witless Scotland Yard detective that the deep laid plot was finally bared and the evil drzers apprehended. A party of travelers was marooned in the small station at Rockland, Maine, on the night of the Ghost Train's pass- ing. Among these passengers were Richard and Elsie Win- throp, who had been married a year and were on the verge of a divorce, Charles and Peggy Murdock, a newlywedded coupleg Miss Bourne, a severe spinster' type of woman, Saul Hodgkins, the middle-aged station master, .Iulia Price, who was supposedly suffering from delusions, Herbert Price, uncle of julia, John Sterling, the man to whcm Julia was engaged, jackson, a detectiveg and Teddie Deakin, a silly foppish linglishman who added much to the comedy of the play. fContinued on Page 485 W' l Top fzicfurvz Bill Yearout, june Capps, Miss Miller, coach, and Robert Morse.

The Sophomore class, having passed from its leadership and rule as the "senior class" over the Junior High, was at first overcome by the con- descending manner in which they were looked upon as they began their first year in Em-Hi. However, they soon learned to take no notice of their Welders" or offense from them, and settled down with real interest in the school's interests and activities. The majority of the girls joined Girl Reserve, and many boys entered Hi-Y. To join the Echo or Re-Echo staff was the desire of some, a few became librarians, others added their names to the memberships of the various clubs in the school, while some members of the class showed their musical ability by being accepted into the glee club, orchestra or band, and a rather small number of boys tried out hesitatingly and with little inward confidence for football and basket- ball. In November came their opportunity to show their willingness and ability to work by partici- pating in the all-school Open House. 46 Prcfsidmf Eunice Jane Loomis Viet'-P1'csirfe11l NVyatt Marbourg Secr'efm'y-Treasurer Mary Jane McCoy - The Sophomore Class Has Had a Successful QNQY Year N ' T The first term ended success ul y for the Sep- tember Sophomore I's in Janu ry with the class fairly holding its own agains the Juniors and Seniors in the activities of the school, and on the semester honor roll.

EW At the beginning of the second se- mester the upperclassmen noticed many new faces in the hall. There was something different about these new students. They acted right at home and always seemed to know where they were going. The reason for this was not exactly known unless it was because the class had a wider knowledge of their new educational homestead. It was not long until the newcomers became interested in all the school activities. The Echo gained a few valuable staff members from the class, and others chose to aid Miss Dutton in the library. On club days we found many of these students filling the places of the January grad- uates in our two clubs, the Hi-Y and Girl Re- serves.

The new environment did not prevent many of them from making the six weeks honor roll. Mak- ing the honor roll in a new school under entirely different conditions requires much study and natural ability. Sophomores, you have done good work this year and the seniors hope you will continue to do so. Pill the many honored positions of the up- perclassmen and make Emporia High more out- standing. GHOST TRAIN CContinued from Page 455 Saul Hodgliins informs these people that they could not spend the night in this particular station. In answer to their questions he tcld them the story of the Ghost Train, which caused certain death to anyone who chanced to look upon it. They scoffed at this story. But when the station master, Saul Hodgkins, was stricken dead very mysteriously and soon afterwards the demented Julia entered and by her weird stories caused the marooned passengers to believe that something queer was about to happen. As the hour of midnight approached the people became more and more frightened. Suddenly Cl bell rang. The engine whistled and the train roared through the junction and Julia Price 48 who rashly gazed upon it apparently succumbed. Soon the train came back and the foolish Teddie Deakin switched the train into the siding and thus learned that this train was used by smugglers to carry liquor and drugs across the Canadian border. Then the fact was discolsed that Teddie was a Scotland Yard detective and Julia Price, Herbert Price and John Sterling were all members of the gang which carried on the smuggling. By the terrors of the night two pairs of lovers were happily reunited.

The opportunity for music was very small in the school system twenty years ago. D. O. jones was music instructor of the entire school system. He came to this high school twice a week where he directed our mixed chorus. This chorus and a faculty quartet was the only music in the school then. No music contests were held until about ten years ago. XVe now have orchestra, band, boys' and girls' glee club, each having a certain class period every day of the week, except orchestra and band which alternate every other day. The music contest was begun and this stimu- lated music in many other schools. Since this arrangement a certain hour for music has been set aside in other schools for music as in our own school. XVC also have mixed chorus, a cappella, boys' and girls' quartet and sextet, etc. Twenty years ago baseball and football were the only athletics played in this school.

He received no pay, he was just one who was interested in athletics. Judge XV. Parker and Owen Samuel were two of the men who con- tributed their spare time to this. W'illiam Colyar was coach cf the baseball team for a few years. Later basketball was started. The first game was played in the "Fluker" building which is across from the Boone filling station new on Merchant between Sixth and Seventh. Very few spectators were there. At first, no one took interest in this particular sport. Our high school gym was considered, twenty years ago, the finest one in the state. W'hen games were played in fur gym the balcony was packed. Iiveryone was beginning to take interest in the sports of our high school. The athletic schedule is more cemplicated and "stiff" today than twenty years or even ten years ago.

XVC have played Ottawa, Manhattan and Topeka for many years. The other extra-curricular activities which have progressed greatly are the Girl Reserve and lli-Y clubs. At first the Hi-Y was called the Y. M. C. A. instead of Hi-Y. This club grew so that it was divided into the Senior, junior Hi-Y under John R. Xvilliamsi direction and the Sophomore Hi-Y under Dale Stt:ut's direction. The Girl Reserve was called the Y. W. C. A. and later changed to the Girl Reserve. This club has developed very much. The Colored Girl Reserve, the Mary K. White organization, was also organized some years age. but even before these clubs were organized a literary society was organized in this school. They had their meeting sometimes at night. At these meetings debate, erations, music, etc., were on the program. Declamation was popular at that time and many contests were held. Oratorical contests were not so popular. But debate was pcpular and has continued so up to the present time. The tratorical contest through the Kansas City Star stimulated this activity very much. And each year it seemed to grow. Scholarship tests were started scme years ago and they are also popular now. On the whole, our school has made very much progress through twenty years in working out this almost perfect schedule of extra-curricular activities. 49 - GIRL RESERVES FINISH SUCCESSFUL YEA The Girl Reserve Club is the largest organiza- tion in school and carries on a great number of various activities during the year.

Many outstanding activities are carried on through the different committees as the party for the poor children at Christmas, the Thanksgiving basket donations and the partyfor the Mexican children. Besides these activities carried on in the club by the various committees, the club sponsors many others, a few them are: the monthly covered dish luncheon, the Big and Little Sister teas, the ama- teur contest, the joint G. R. and Hi-Y meeting and dinner, the G. R. and Hi-Y benefit play and the Mother-Daughter tea. The club sent five girls to the National Club Conference held at Omaha, Neb.

They arrived in Chanute about five in the afternoon. They were directed to the Presbyterian Church where they were registered and then went to the differ- ent homes where they met their hostesses and were assigned their rooms. They were then taken to the church where lunch was served. After lunch a get-together party was held where everyone got acquainted and then returned to the auditorium where the program for the conference was Olli- lined and welcome speeches were given. A heavy schedule had been arranged for the next day. At 7:30 to 8 o'clock morning singing was held, from 8:30 to 9:30 various discussion groups classified under these heads were held: faith, hope, grace, and peace. Various sponsors led these discussion groups. Following the discussion groups the var- ious committees of the G. R. Club held meetings, exchanging various ideas and telling the part their club had participated in. Saturday evening a banquet was held which closed the day's program. Sunday morning a regular worship service was held after which the conference closed. This was only a two-day conference but very good and was very much enjoyed. TEN-DAY NATIONAL GIRL RESERVE CONFERENCE. Boarding the Santa Fe train at S o'clock on the morning of -Iuly 14, Emporia girls and a sponsor left for Omaha, Neb., to attend the National G. R. Camp for ten days. From 5 to 2:30 in the afternoon they sat restlessly' waiting for the con- ductor to shout Omaha. Arriving in Omaha they were met by cars which took them to the camp which is situated five miles south of Omaha on the big Missouri river. Arriving at the camp tired and dusty, they registered and were assigned cabins. After the usual getting acquainted With the new girls, they ran to supper when the bell rang. After supper they gazed around seeing the camp in full and meeting all kinds of girls. ,An eve- ning meeting was held and social dancing fol- lowed. This meeting was really a sketch of the various meetings for the ten days. Every morn- ing they either took the morning dip or took hikes or tried some muscle stretching exercises. Then breakfast, and after breakfast they had their regu- lar morning worship followed by discussion groups on either family relations, religious topics, or economic problems, getting to attend two of the three discussion groups during the course of time. After the discussion groups they had group meet- ings in the different committees in the G. R. Club. The afternoon was left open to swimming, hiking, baseball, tennis or rest. In the evening after lunch the various cabins visited each other, exchanging ideas for making the clubs better and getting better acquainted. Then in the evening around eight o'clock the three hundred girls would start gathering in the main lodge for a half hour of group singing and social time. After singing till their voices were worn out they'd gather 'round for various programs. One evening they were for- tunate in hearing all kinds of Negro spirituals. Several times various prominent business Y. XV. C. A. workers from Omaha gave interesting talks and several plays were worked up by different girls and given. Two sight-seeing tours were taken during different afternoons. After ten days of work and play together the Emporia girls boarded the train and left for Emporia. -f-...W . iv . HI-Y CROWS The Junior-Senior Hi-Y Club, under the spon- sorship of Mr. Williams and Mr. Smith, exper- ienced a good year. Because of the enforcement of more club standards, the membership was re- duced to a smaller number than in preceding years. Among the various projects that were staged this year, the G. R.-Hi-Y benefit play stands out. "Jerry of Jericho Road" was a two-act comedy held in the Junior High auditorium March 23. The boys also showed their acting ability in an- other short play given at the annual meeting of the State Y. M. C. A. Board of Directors, which was held in Emporia early this school year. A play, "Hoots and Quaeks," given by Ben Hammond of W'ichita, was another money-mak- ing project sponsored by the club. An operetta ticket sale contest with the Girl Reserves was another feature of the year. The club that sold the least number of tickets enter- tained the winners with a banquet. This proved 2 as much fun for the losers as for the winners, so no hard feelings were experienced. The officers of the year were quite active and with the very good aid of the sponsors the club was prospering and interesting. The officers were: Edwin Theel, president, Thomson Holtz, vice-president, Lloyd Henderson, secretary, Dorris Jones, treasurer. To the club,s great misfortune, "Cherry" Jones moved away from town between semesters. This left the club without a treasurer. The position was filled by Maurice Gordon, who proved himself a real "money chaserf' The committee chairmen did their part of the year,s work. Those fellows are: Walter H.

UP I ENTY YEARS HI-Y CLUBS ATTEND DISTRICT CONFERENCE. Eleven Hi-Y Clubs from the Emporia district met in Cottonwood Falls October 19 for the dis- trict meeting of the year. The clubs represented were Alta Vista, Emporia Sophomore, Emporia Junior-Senior, Emporia Junior High, Eureka, Marion, Elmdale, Peabody, Herington, Lehigh, and Cottonwood Falls. The afternoon meeting which was at 4:30 was presided over by C. H. Mullan, district congress- man from Marion. His program consisted of group singing led by Collins Mendel, a former Emporia Hi-Y memberg a short speech on the state plans by Mr. Chesky of Herington. Bruce Tallman, State Y. M. C. A. boys' secretary, was introduced. He led the group in a discussion on "Building a Program." After Mr. Tallman's talk the representatives were divided into smaller groups according to the position they held in their club. After those meetings the boys had a fifteen minute recess be- HAS BECOME ONE OF THE MOST ACTIVE ORGANIZATIONS OF EMPORIA HIGH SCHOOL. - LARGE MONEY - MAKING PROJECTS FEATURE YEAR'S WORK. fore the banquet which was held in the high school gymnasium. The evening program included musical selec- tions by members of the Cottonwod Falls High School, and the evening speaker was the Rev.

SSSS 5 THE I954 E + H SOPHOMORE I-il-Y The Sophomore Hi-Y Club, during the years of 1933-34, has enjoyed the most successful year of its existence. Among its helpful and beneficial school projects, it boasts a successful and well- managed book exchange, the selling of school stickers, and furnishing hungry high school mouths with hot dogs at the football games. Besides these, the club has collected old news- papers and sold them, and has held two parties. One of these parties was a skating party, which the club vigorously supported. In the first semester a delegation was sent to Camp Wood for the annual training conference in the summer. The boys, along with sponsors and representatives from the Senior Club, spent ten days near Elmdale, indulging in strenuous physical exercise and receiving much training in spiritual and moral subjects. The club paid most of the boys, fees. Later in the first semester, members of the club paying a fraction of the expense involved, were sent to Coffeyville for one of the numerous state conventions. Study groups were organized and each Emporia delegate was sent to a different dis- cussion circle. Thus information was gained in several subjects and the boys reported their find- 54 ings when they returned. Literature was also procured and added to the club library. The parties mentioned in the first paragraph were paid for mainly by the club but novelty charges of three cents were made to partly cover the cost. Other revenues come from a fraction of the activity tickets. Forty members were enrolled in the club at the beginning of the year, but when the second se- mester started, new sophomores poured in and the semester's loss found the roster at sixty. Virtually the same cabinet was used both semesters. Several speakers were invited to speak during the semester, including "Fran" Welch, coach at the Teachers College, V. A. Davis, professor of English at the Teachers Collegeg Conrad Hansen, the local secretary of the Y. M. C. A.g Rev. A. E. Henry, of the First Methodist Church, now the pastor of the College Hill Methodist Church of Wichita, and Lloyd Henderson, the secretary of the Junior-Senior Club.

Various schools over the state have been quite proud of their music departments but probably not so proud as we are of our own department. Boys' and girls' glee clubs, orchestra and band make up the department. In each branch a very decided interest is taken by the whole school. We would think that athletic contests would gain about all the interest but that is not so in our school. XVhen the music contest at Emporia comes, every member of the high school is very enthusiastic about the outcome. Every year E. H. S. has stood very high in contest results, both by group work, as boys, and girls' glee clubs, and by individuals. In the last few years we have been honored with many individuals who have won the school many victories, both in vocal and instrumental works. Music is a subject which is essential in all schools. Wfhen one learns the ap- preciation of music, it is very easy to train one,s self to appreciate his cultural arts which will be of use to him in later years. You will realize that music when taught privately is a very costly pro- fession. So by having it in this school, We are saving students money, who are planning to specialize in music. Many students of our high school might be very much talented in some kind of music either vocal or instrumental. By offer- ing them music their talent might be realized and their life work pointed out to them. f Music, as well as other things, is a natural ability and if it is found out before the students leave high school, they can prepare their ability for their life's work. Cur music departments make this possible by finding the ability of each student. Music is one field which is not overcrowded. Music is essential to most every- thing. Since this is true, many of our students get their music training in high school to meet this demand for music. Music is a very enjoyable type of work. Everyone likes some kind of music and when someone likes a thing it is enjoyable to work at it. By the number of members of the music classes in our high school you would be convinced that everyone in our high school was very much interested in music. Of course our music is made enjoyable by the way it is taught by our instructors, who are Miss Sowerby, the glee club supervisor, and Mr. Wfilliam Just, the orchestra and band leader. It is natural for every student to want to contribute an honor to his school. If he cannot do this in athletics or other subjects he probably can in music. Our glee clubs, orchestra, and band repre- sent our school at many meetings and many places. This gives training as well as attribute to our school. Our orchestra and band play at our school plays and other places when called upon. Every year Emporia High School enters in the music contest P38 - X, this department has stood very Our music departments make their own money to buy their music and supplies by giving a musi- cal comedy, each year. The supervisors pick some members of the school to carry the musical leads of the operetta. This trains the student and excites an interest in him for further music train- ing. XVe have certain hours for our music training. Hour one, alternating band and orchestra, meets in the Lowther junior High School auditorium for its class work. Hour three and four every day is 56 which is held at the Kansas State Teachers College of Emporia, and high X, 88 scheduled with boys' and girls' glee club. Mixed chorus meets after school approximately twice a week. The other music features as a cappella, quartet, etc., meet whenever it is convenient. These special hours were not adopted so many years ago. Music was thought not to be very necessary and not so much interest was taken in it, but now the interest is of a very high degree. in their ratings. By this you have been shown what our school has accomplished in the line of music, and with everyoneis help it can be established as a very im- portant subject in any school.

The idea that musicians are temperamental and inhuman is wrong in general, but there are exceptions. Al- though the orchestra meets uncomfortably close to breakfast, it is one of the most pleasant and enjoyable classes of the day. The group is com- posed of pupils who are greatly interested in this type of work and are anxious to learn the funda- mentals of orchestra work. The orchestra oper- ates with the minimum of discipline and is rather informal in its activities. Orchestra meets reg- ularly three times a Week, Monday, Wfednesday, and Thursday. Each year makes a change in the orchestra because of graduating students and new 58 pupils. Mr. Just, our director, is very popular with the students. When a play is presented the orchestra helps cut with the music. The director as well as the players must have a large supply of patience as well as ability. It is very common for an orchestra member to have "sensitive ears,', a malady brought on by Wrong notes and difficult passages. Once or twice a year the orchestra gives a program cpen to the public. Officers are elected and govern the body during the year. Social activities are sometimes planned which are greatly enjoyed by the group. If the NRA would "click', like an orchestra must to succeed, the de- pression would very soon be ended and a new era would begin that would make history. SCCIETAS CICERONIS The Cicero Club was organized at the beginning of the school year with Miss Douglass, the Latin teacher, as sponsor. All those who were regularly enrolled in the third year Latin class were mem- bers. For the first semester the club chose Paul Bailey as their consul primusg John Zimmerman, as their consul secundusg Helen jenkins, scriba, and Kenneth Murdock, quaestor. The second se- mester Paul Bailey was chosen as consul primusg Mary Jane Diggs, consul secundusg Mary Eubank, scriba, and Bill Eagle, quaestor. Regular meetings were held in the classroom every three weeks. At each meeting reports were given covering Cicero and his life so that the members might become better acquainted with Cicero as a man, and the political conditions and customs of Rome in the ancient days. Special programs were given at Christmas, Valentine's Day, and a Roman banquet was held in the spring.

CCLORED GIRL Some seven or eight years ago the Colored Girl Reserve of the Emporia High School was organ- ized. Each year this club carries on the idea of living a better life.

The Industrial Arts department is taught by George A. Lodle. Mr. Lodle has had much ex- perience teaching this subject, therefore his class is carried on in a way that the students can get everything possible from the course. The work shop is equipped with modern machinery, making a variety of work possible. Every year large pieces of work such as beds, cedar chests, chairs, dressers, and tables are made by the students that spend a class time in Room 1. 60 Every student who takes a college preparatory or general course is required to take Manual Train- ing. To most boys the class is an enjoyment, because it gives them a chance to work by them- selves and when their job is finished the joy of the work is at its height. The finished product is taken home for family inspection. Every year the classes sponsor a display of their work in some public place uptown. One of the most attractive of these displays was in the large show windows of the Kansas Electric Power Com- pany. dents who have done SPORTS YE R AS A WHOLE . if ..- ff' f' 2 1, The athletic year has My uuq been very eventful for Q Q' .

Real- izing that the season was close at hand, Coach Smith and Assistant Coaches Lodle and Bloxom began training the squad for the tough season to come. The team journeyed to El Dorado and made a strong start by defeating this major Ark Valley team, 23-0. As Emporia followed through, Burlington, Otta- wa, and Lawrence were added to the list of vic- tories. Topeka and Manhattan upset our winning to beat us in each case by one touchdown, leav- ing us tied for second place in the Eastern Kansas Conference. As soon as football season closed, Seventy-IWO men turned out for basketball practice including all the last year's "B" team and lettermen who had not graduated. Coach Smith had scheduled a hard season with eighteen games beside the tour- nament contests. During the season the team I :I , .L . ' , ' , ,.: Q sa ta ,ii" S . ' f ' iii' if K nam.-- Coach Alfred D. Smith played many of the outstanding teams of the state including Arkansas City, Parsons, Wicliita North, Newton and Topeka. Only two games were lost, to Newton and Quincy. Coach Smith played his reserves frequently to give them ex- perience and to save his regulars. Bowing to a fresher Topeka team Emporia placed second in the regional tournament. XVhen it came time for the state tournament it was doped that either Newton or Wyaindotte would be finalists but lo- cal enthusiasts believed Emporia had a good show. Emporia won the State Tournament by defeating Norton, Pittsburg, Newton and Wicliita Fast. This was accomplished through excellent coopera- tion between the team and coaches. The track season was launched with a late start, but Emporia won her first three meets, and also showed up well in the K. U. relays. The year has been one worthy of praise and the school and town are proud of its high school teams and C03Cl'le5- Coach George A.

EM-HI WINS STATE CHAMPIONSHIP Let us review the basketball season of the 1934 State Championship Basketball Team. The first called practice showed a favorable turnout of about seventy-two men. This number included all the remaining lettermen and all of Coach Blox- om's 1933 "BH team. Three weeks later we had our first game with EI Dorado and clipped off the first victory 28-14. In this first game the Emporia tip-off plays were outstanding and made up for rather poor passing. Coach Smith played 1110St of his "subs" in this game to give them some valuable experience. The following week in a double-header we met defeat at the hands of Quincy by one point after winning over Pawnee Rock easily in the other game. Emporia lost to Newton, a team which was classed as one of the best in the state, by a score of 39-31. Tearing off four straight Conference victories over Ottawa, Manhattan, Topeka and Lawrence, E. H. S. was undisputedly at the top of the Fast- ern Kansas Conference at the end of the first round. Parsons, Wicliita North and Eureka also fell under the fast play of the Emporia club. In the second conference round the four league teams were defeated again by moderately safe margins and Emporia won the conference cham- pionship for the second time in a row with eight victories and no defeats. Perhaps one of the most interesting games was the one against Arkansas City. Trailing at the half 10-17 the Emporians tightened up and won 20-18 in the last few minutes of the game. Cha- nute was another victim by a score of 25-15 in a very clean and well-fought game. At the regional tournament here, Fmporia reached the finals along with Topeka. The "Tro- jans" had drawn a bye in the first round of games and were much fresher for the final test. Em- poria lost the decision 18-20. nainent but sports writ'ers and fans doped either Newton or Wyandotte, the 1933 champs, to win. Emporia was placed in the lower bracket with Norton as her first opponent. That game was Won 25-14. Team spirit and good care played an important hand in the team's success. Coach Smith carefully supervised the affairs of the team so that they were in excellent condition. Smith issued orders and Assistant Coach Lodle helped to enforce them. Team members received a good amount cf rest and were kept from the tourna- ment except for their games. After the first games telegrams of congratula- tions and encouragement reached the team and helped keep enthusiasm high. A large number of the student body and townspeople were at the games and did their part. In the second game Pittsburg was defeated 20- 17 in a very exciting game. Newton was our op- ponent in the semi-finals, and this was the game that really decided the tournament victors. New- ton took an early lead and held it most of the game. The Emporia team tightened up but it seemed that they could not cut down the small margin held by Newton. In the last few seconds of play through the aid of nearly every man on the team Kinter recovered the ball under our bas- ket and tipped in the winning goal. Newton was held scoreless the remaining seven seconds and the game ended 16-15. Emporia won the ffnals by defeating Wicliita East 22-15. The Emporia team has been one of the clean- est and fastest teams in the state. She does not boast a large group of victories although she has above the average. There have been several de- feats but as far as the value of the experience and training obtained in these games they may be classed as victories. - Emporia has won the State Championship Emporia was entitled to play in the State Tour- twicc, first in 1924 and again in 1934.

Chase Coun- ty lead in the early events and piled up a good lead in points. Our team took the late events showing good form to win the meet 80 3-4 to 76 1-4. Wasson and Rock of Emporia tied for high points with twelve points apiece. Outstand- ing events were the shot, won by XVasson, and the broad jump, won by Rock. The following Saturday the Red and Black squad journeyed to Topeka for a dual meet. For the first time in the history of the school our track team won over the Trojans. The victory was made possible by another late rally to put us ahead by two points, 67 to 65. In the century dash event Emporia won the first three places with Kowalski, Petty and Taylor breaking the tape in rapid sucession. The time for this was 10.2 seconds. Rock took a long series of leaps to win the broad jump. Harry Parker, a new member of the squad, cut off over 15 seconds of his prev- ious time to defeat Michaels of Topeka in the mile run with a time of 515. The victory over Topeka put E. H. S. in a favorable position in the league with Manhattan as a good competitor. Emporia sported 7 firsts in the following 66 events: 100 yard dash, broad jump, mile run, shot put, 880 relay, javelin and medley relay. The following week Burlington came to Em- poria for a triangular which turned out to be a dual between E. H. S. and Burlington with Roose- velt trailing. The Burlington team defeated Emporia by an overwhelming margin last year, but this year they were defeated as easily as they had defeated us. Emporia took first in 12 out of 16 events, which made a very convincing vie- tory. The best performance of the meet was the 880-yard relay. A team composed of Kowalski, Clever, Petty and Taylor finished with a time of 1:35.1. Kowalski was high point man in this meet with 10 points to his credit. Coach Smith and twelve of the team went to Lawrence the following Friday to take part in the Kansas Relays sponsored by K. U. Those who went were: Kowalski, 100 yard dashg Zim- merman, 880-yard rung Rock and Petty, broad jump, Wasson and Kinter, shot-put, Myron Fields, 220-yard dash, Wasson and Kinter, jave- ling Black, discus, the 880 relay team composed of Kowalski, Petty, Clever and Taylor, medley relay team, Kowalski, Petty, Carson and Harry Parker.

A. is to promote in- terest in athletics for girls, to encourage good sportsmanship and to have a good time while participating in these activities. The only op- portunity an Emporia High girl has to earn a school letter is through this organization. Not only does one have the opportunity to earn her letter, providing she lives up to all requirements, but she also has the benefit of these recreational activities in a wholesome atmosphere. This year we have attempted to run our organ- ization on a basis somewhat different from those of preceding years.

It has been said that "sportsmanship is a delightful fragrance that people carry with them in their relations with their fellow menf' One would naturally expect to find good sportsmanship in the home, as it is the basis for all the learning an individual receives. Each member of the family plays an important part in the development of good sportsmanship, a trait which affects the individual throughout his en- tire life. A great deal of responsibility rests on the big business executive. As the head of a large firm, he Ihust be capable of administering and executing laws which supply the demands of his firm. In order to do this, he must have an understanding With his fellow workers. He must play fair. He should put his employees and competitors on AWARDS K QPinj Charlotte Scheel Lois Wade K Clara Stout !

No business man will get anywhere by teaching his men to hate his competitors. The man of average intelligence who has the courage to keep on trying will get farther than the genius who puts only half of his heart into his work. Not only does this apply to the business man but also to all people who expect to succeed in the sports world. One sees many phases of sportsmanship in recreation. Here is a chance for everyone to apply his idea of good sportsmanship. Many people do not understand that this term can be applied to spectators attending the game as well as the players. People should be educated to con- trol themselves in the gallery. What do you think of the sportsman who reproaches a player for unfair play, yet in h's own private business he becomes successful by means of graft and cor- ruption? Fine sportsmanship in the stands is an additional incentive in the whole movement for a higher culture and a nobler civilization.

And, at the same time, they are earning points toward their future award. Our association is a member of the Kansas State High School Athletic Association, G. A. A., with headquarters in Topeka.

QContinued on Page 751 Fri., 16: I Sat., 17: ECI-IO-TWIENTY YEARS OF PROGRESS For more than twenty years, Emporia High has had its paper. In the ,8O's, during the occupa- tion of the old Garfield building, there was the "High School Banner." In the early 1900's there was also published a monthly essay pamphlet, the "High School Doin's." But in the last twenty years, two decades, Em- poria High has had its Echo. The Echo, a rep- resentative I-Iigh School newspaper since its ex- istence, officially began in 1911, and had grown to a four-column monthly issue at the time of the entrance in the new building, whose score of years of service we are celebrating at the present time. Originally, the Echo was operated in conjunc- tion with the English department, and under the supervision of an English teacher. Upon the es- tablishment of Printing and Journalism courses, the management was transferred to this new de- partment, where it has continued to prosper and expand since that time. No little credit is due to the sponsors through the years who include Miss Mary McNabb, Mr. Rice E. Brown, Miss THE E934 + XVendell Willianis, Eififm'-ir:-Chief James Grubbs, B11.tim'.v,i Miimigrr 70 Anna Bell Paddock, Miss Mary D. Schrnalzried and Mr. E. Jay South. For the past fourteen years, the Echo has been represented at the annual K. U. Journalism Con- ference, an activity which has helped place the Emporia Echo in the high rank which it now holds. It has grown from the small four-column to a large five-column paper, and has developed through the monthly and bi-weekly stages to the present weekly issues. The Emporia Echo has become associated with the National Scholastic Press Association, Quill and Scroll, and subscribes to various publicity and advertising services which make it the paper that it is. A new era in the Echo's history was en- tered, upon the inauguration of the plan embod- ied in the Student Activity Ticket. In this way, the Echo is made available to the majority of the student body-a fitting milestone on the Echo's highway of progress and success. -du.---Q TELLI THE STORY OF THE YEAR Akt.ENia SANDLixs ,,,7,7 .

Assixfalzf Editor LLOYD I'I!iNDFRSON W ,,,, , Bzzsiness Manager EUGENE SOUDILRS ,,,,,, Axxisfanf Bzzsizzexs Manager Every year various students have a puzzled look and cross disposition. The cause of this is the making of our annual, "The Re-Echof' This book is the underclassmen's as well as the Sen- ior,s book. It relates the activities of the school for the current year. The compilation of this book has been one of the outstanding activities of our school for over twenty years. It is natural that when this project was first began that hard- ly anyone knew just how it would work out. But by the attitude of everyone it surely is a success. As the time and fashions change, so does this book. Every year it is different, not only dif- ferent photos of students but also in the style of the book. Each year the editor and business manager try to make it better and more interest- ing. In the last twenty years, many annuals have been made, which if in a contest would have tak- en blue ribbons. And in the future this will also be true. As years have passed, the need of more work- ers has been realized. Years ago we did not have as many members on the staff as there are now. Our school has added many things to the course Q of study in the last twenty years and everyone is interested in them. Hence wanting to know more about them. This being true, more mem- bers were required to describe these things added. As advertising is one of the greatest responsibili- ties in making the book a success, more mem- bers were chosen on the advertising section. All the students elected to this staff feel it a great honor. It takes scholarship, responsibility and leadership to be a member. The success of the book is due not to one alone but to all mem- bers who have cooperated, and helped as they should. The Re-Echo for years back has sponsored some school event, such as a chapel program. This year the 1934 Re-Echo sponsored the elec- tion of the school King and Queen. This was one of the outstanding events of this year. Ev- eryone was allowed to vote for the King and Queen who subscribed for our 1934 annual. In keeping with the theme of the book we are printing the staff of twenty years ago, consist- ing of Violet Kretsinger, editor-in-chief, C. D. Raymond, business managerg Hattie Woodbtiry, literary editor, Charles Johnson, kodak editor, McKinley Pratt, treasurer, Dale Stinson, athletic editorq .Arthur Henderson, stenographer.

The alumni members of this society give the pledge and talk to the newly elected members. This year a very interesting talk was given by Dr. Furbay, of the College of Emporia. The choosing of the new members of this society is a great responsibility of the faculty. Each year a committee is elected to manage this work. Through the efforts of the present committee our National Honor Society was made a success. The committee consisted of Miss Hancock, chairman, Miss Jackson, Miss Sirpless, Miss Douglas, Miss Shirley, Miss Cov- erdill, and Mr. Stout. Each year the new members of the society elect their officers. The officers of the 1934 class are: Maurice Gordon, president: Victor Steg, vice-president, Ruth Knouse, secretary- treasurer. This honor is one for which all students should strive and is one which should be con- sidered an honor to be a member. Through hard work and leadership one may attain the goal of being a member of the National Honor Society. We honor those upon whom has been be- stowed the privilege of being a member of the National Honor Society.

On Saturday, the Sth of May, there will be an Eastern Kansas Confer- ence League meet at Ottawa. Manhattan, To- peka, Ottawa and Lawrence will be the other schools in the meet. We have already defeated the Topeka Trojans and it looks as though the Manhattan team will be the strongest competitor. The following Saturday there will be a reg- ional meet at Eureka. The winners in these meet events will qualify to participate in the state meet which will be held here May 18 and 19. Time Has Wrought Many Changes QContinued from Page ij At the present the school is trying to discover the need of the individual and to satisfy this need. The school has come to realize that the students must be dealt with as individuals rather than as a group. Through these courses we have made this possible. Anyone taking the college course is climbing toward some definite profession. Those who take a General Course are really not preparing for a certain occupation but are acquiring the educa- tion so as to be capable of any job which they might secure. The Commercial Course describes itself. It deals with the making of a business man or woman. In this course the student is required to take Business Training, English, Busi- ness Arithmetic, Penmanship, Typing, Bookkeep- ing, Commercial Geography, Shorthand, etc. Commercial Law and American Government have been added as required subjects for the Commer- cial Course in the last twenty years. When one finishes the business course, he or she is well fitted with the fundamentals of the commercial field. The College Course requires Geometry, English, Biology, Gym, Hygiene, Foreign Languages, Euro- pean History, American Government, Physics or Chemistry, and American History. Biology, Hy- giene, American Government and European His- tory have been added to the College Course as required subjects in the last fifteen years. Jour- nalism, etc., have also been added as electives to this course in our High School. The College Course is broader, so that might be the reason so many students take it. As has been explained before, the College Preparatory Course contains the foundation material for col- lege work. To enter a professional college one must have the subjects required in this course. Since our school carries out this idea of college courses it is classed as one of the best schools of the state. Students who are not quite sure that they will attend college, but who may do so someday, should take the General Course. Students who are planning to take up business work after graduation, should take the Commer- cial Course. The majors in this school are three years in some other group besides English. The minors are two years in another group other than Mathe- matics, except in the Commercial Course. Most colleges require three years of a foreign language and we offer that. On the whole our school is well equipped and is watching the individual more each day and it will improve as time goes on.

Visitor fto butler who is showing him through the picture galleryj: "That,s a fine portrait! Is it an old master?" Butler: "No, that's the old missus." The man who brags, "I run things in my housef' usually refers to the lawnmower, washing machine, vacuum sweeper, baby carriage and the errands. They were rather late in starting for the station and his wife said, "You run ahead, dear, and hold the train." "Yeh!" he answered sarcastically. "And what particular hold would you like me to use-the headlock, scissors, or half-nelson?" "why do you want your letters returned?" asked Betty Adams. "Are you afraid I'll take them to court?', "No,', sighed Bill Clever, "but I paid to have those letters written by an expert, and I may use them again some day." 8 Autographs A Q www wav Au plE?1a34?L -' iii?-M iid- uiwylfjw FW-aff Zfqnmgi f Q.,Ww4Jf+ MQGDCJ A12 ji VM-vuywy Q -QLp4W'4lf-MJ-uhm!! -fu,-al cm4wM,...,,L -,,,,,,,.1Zv Af-PEN.. ww -HM, a.uJA 'WQfEW5f,im D1,,,M,. 87 4.
