Frank Dabalack .1 Cpcwcknaf gjriclcllem The three wins, five losses, and one tie record of Coach Wally Swanson's Cardinal griclders could very easily be thought of, by an imaginative person, as four wins and five losses, for the Cards fought the mighty Coffeyville Red Ravens, EK Conference and State champs, to a 7-7 tie on Coffeyville's own home field. This many people con- sidered a moral victory, for it was more than any other EK Conference team could do during the course of the season. Led by Co-Captains Delmar Bolinger and Carroll Cobble, the Cardinals tied for second with independence in the conference race. A big blow to the team was an automobile accident shortly before the game with lndependenceg Quarterback Bolinger, a l95l All-EK Con- ference letterman, was injured so severely in this crash that he was unable to play again during the remainder of the season, Glen Terrill, Bob Palmer, Rex Richter, Carroll Cobble, and Vic Chrisman were awarded positions on the All-EK team, while Bill Zink, Billy Barnett, and Terry Wolfe rated honorable mention. The Card-Alumni game was a football scoreboard benefit affair.

The small but mighty Vikes hit their peak against Emporia's Spartans and gave the potent Emporians a battle before bowing. Then the Norsemen scared the eventual SEK League champions, Pittsburg's Dragons, by driving to within a few yards of a tying touchdown with less than a minute to play, before being defeated, 13-20. That was all the Vikings needed to give them steam to run over Columbus in a muddy battle, to tie Fort Scott in a blizzard, and to bowl over Chanute's Blue Comets. This late surge gave the Norse fifth place in the final league standings, The Norsemen held the best defensive record in the league for total yards compiled against them, though they mustered the offense to win only three games. Many of the teams which beat the Vikes were well aware that they had had a battle, though. Two of the Norsemen were selected on both the All-SEK Area and All-SEK League teamsg they were Bob Franklin, a junior back, and Joe Chalker, a senior end. Five other Vikes were placed on the honor- able mention list of the All-SEK League teamg they were Norman Stephens, Jan Higgins, Kenny Moore, Bob Weidman, and Jim Strathe gall seniors, SEASON'S RECORD Parsons 7 Cherryvale 6 Parsons 12 lola 13 Parsons O Coffeyville 13 Parsons 1 3 Parsons 1 3 Parsons 1 3 Parsons 24 Parsons 25 Parsons 1 8 Upper left-Bob Franklin 1891 brings down Coughenour, Pittsburg ball car- rier, while Norman Stephens moves up to help.

The workhorse organization at PJC this year was probably the band, which performed at num- erous and varied occasions at home and elsewhere. The band's marching engagements included parades in Chanute, Fort Scott, Oswego, and Par- sons. The PJC band was one of the most out- standing organizations in the Parsons' Christmas and Fall Festival parades. On February 7 the band presented a benefit concert and cleared S60 to help pay for the new bass durm and glockenspeil lbell lyrel, Special features of the concert were Ragtime Wedding, a novelty tune, a cornet solo by Bill Lindsey, and two numbers by a brass quartet. A pep assembly or a basketball or football game at PJC without the band playing was indeed a rarity this year. ln addition, a small German band was organized to perform at various events. Climaxing the band's year was the SEK League Band Festival in Parsons on April l8. Approxi- mately SOO musicians from the schools in the league practiced during the day and presented a memorable concert in the evening with James Kerr of Wichita University as the director.

Only three lettermen were back to start the season, and Marvin Fielding's return from KSTC Pittsburg, for the second semester was too late to do much good. Next year the Cardinals should do much better since several of this year's squad were freshmen and gained lots of valuable experience. The Fort Scott Greyhounds were the EK Conference cham- pions this year but were almost bounced off their throne when the scrappy Cardinals beat them 16 points in a rousing upset. This loss made it necessary for the Hounds to beat Coffeyville at Coffeyville and then take the measure of the Javatcwners in a playoff to win their crown. PJC's Bill Barnett made the All-EK team and missed being unanimous by only one vote.

The group sang for the community-wide Thanksgiving Services, several PJC assemblies, the school's annual Singing Christmas Tree, various Holy Week Services, and PJC's Baccalaureate Services. On February 29 the Choir went to Columbus for the SEK League Choral Festival, which was highlighted by an evening concert featuring the choirs of the league's eight schools. In addition, PJC's Choir re- ceived praise for its rendition of Were You There? To take the place of the musical play, The Vagabond King, which had to be canceled because of trouble in finding sufficient rehearsal time, the Choir and the Polychromes put on a program March Zl. The Choir wore robes for the more serious numbers and dressed formally for the numbers featuring various operettas.

' .izalfier Of UA Z5 Q Father of the Bride, PJC's first semester play, was presented under the direction of Miss Inez Cunningham before a crowd of almost l,000 on the night of Janu- ary l0. The play, a comedy, tells of the trials of getting a daughter married. Father Banks goes through untold agonies when the details of the wedding come up, and then goes through even worse agony when the bills start to appear. Trouble also results when the engaged couple decide not to be engaged after all, but to everyone's relief they change their minds again. After several delightful scenes, the wedding finally goes off according to plan, Especially invited for the production were about one hundred couples who had been married within a year of the production date. Joan Guthridge helped create atmos- phere for the play by playing wedding music before cur- tain time and between acts, while the fifteen PJC boys who ushered were dressed in appropriate fashion for a wedding, The production staff, which consisted mainly of Footlights Club members, included: lights-Jerry James, Charles Browng ticketsflill Buchanek, l-larriet Newell, Connie Wade, Shirley Ford, Margie Gwartney, Sylvia Caing publicity-lris Cunningham, Nancy Proctor, Donna McBee, Gail Miller, Barbara Brown, Leila Brown, proper- ties-Meredithe Clary, Joanne Blossom, Donna Campbell, Barbara Barnes.

E dward Rude Secretary-Treasurer ........ Joanne Blossom Miss lnez Cunningham, Sponsor, led the busy Foot- lights Club members through a full schedule of activities, the first of which was a get-acquainted party at the YWCA, October 9. Members and their dates attended the party, and although the cokes were late, the party was anything but dry. lNith meetings conducted in a work shop fashion, the Footlighters used the regular Monday meeting time and other practice periods to prepare for the presentation of three one-act plays at Studio Night, March 3, before an invited audience. Members of the club work toward dramatic achieve- ment awards in the organizations activities. A bronze medal represents a first year award, while the second year is signified by a silver medal and a gold tribute is received by third year winners. .Sjfwbo Hgh UPPER PHOTO-Rexie and Texie, played by Amba Mann and Harriet Newell, admire the new d'ress theld by Texieh, which has just been given to them by the lady from the city iPat Moffattb while the mother tJill Buchanekl looks on.

There were those who had maintained that a spring play was a virtual impossibility this year with the many conflicts of student employment and activi- ties, but a determined cast and direction pointed the way with a hit production studded with new talent. The story concerned a selfish self-centered woman who learned too late that people who live to them- selves are generally left to themselves.
