The “A” Club is an organization founded by and consisting of young men who have won one or more first team letters in any of the high school sports: football, basket ball, baseball, or track. The purpose of this club is to promote athletics, to secure a closer co-operation among members of the teams and student body, to insure the success of the teams, to create an interest of fellow-students and townspeople in attending the games played by the teams and to cultivate and promote true sportsmanship. Annually there is a carnival and a banquet given by the club. The officers of 1924: Charles Pitkin, president; Jack Campbell, vice-president; Fred Carnahan, secretary-treasurer; Lewis Turner, sergeant-at-arms.

During its football season it won nine of the eleven games on its schedule, tied one and lost one. The basket ball season was a heavy one of twenty-one games with some of the best and strongest teams in the state. Argentine, however, won the majority of the games on the schedule. The second team made the remarkable record of winning all but one of its games, while the junior high school team wort the city championship. In the track season Argentine far outclassed most of its competitors. In the Kansas relays the senior high team scored five points and the junior high team won third place. The junior high team placed first in the state. 192 Page Forty-seven t v.1 V. D. Keyes (ass’t coach), Schwartzfegcr, Gallup, S. Clark, Pitkin, Snyder, Jack Campbell, Stewart, N. Clark, Thomas, Payne.

Forty-three men turned out daily for practice and from this number Coach Watt selected a com- bination that won nine out of the eleven games played, tied one by a 0 to 0 score, and that could fairly lay claim to the championship of greater Kansas City. The first team to cross the Argentine goal line was Excelsior Springs. The game Summit High eleven. The team made a good showing in its first game and won easily by a 52 to 0 score. Last year Argentine played Lees Summit for its first game and wen by a 7 to 0 count. Kansas City, Kansas, was the first team to invade the home gridiron and was disastrously defeated by a 21 to 0 score. A crowd of 2,000 people watched Argentine down the Kansas City, Kansas, athletes, and send them home without a single point. The first team to cross the Argentine goal line was Excelsior Springs. The game was played on the Excelsior field, and resulted in a 39 to 6 victory for Argentine. On October 13, the Benton High eleven of St. Joseph, Mo., played Argentine on the home field and lost by a 27 to 0 count. Benton tried hard to score but proved no match for the Watt aggregation. Argentine played and defeated Lawrence in its fifth game of the season on the Argentine gridiron. Lawrence handed Argentine its only defeat last season, but failed even to score on Argentine this year. The final count was 19 to 0. The only defeat of the season came at the hands of the Olathe eleven. Argentine was not used to playing in the mud and could not hit its stride, while Olathe played its best and won 17 to 6. Paola was the next victim. As a result of this game Argentine put another vic- tory in its “W” column, 45 to 6. The game was played on the home field and was witnessed by approximately 400 people. Six of the regulars were ineligible to play on account of low grades in their studies, but Coach Watt picked an eleven that had little trouble in winning. Argentine defeated Shawnee Mission by a 45 to 7 score. The contest was played at Shawnee Mission and was more interesting than the score indicates. Shawnee counted its touchdown by a fake play fifteen yards from the Argentine goal line. Coach Watt and his Argentine gridders journeyed to St. Joseph, Mo., November 17, where they met and defeated the strong St. Joseph Central High eleven by a 12 to 8 score. The score at the end of the first half was 8 to 0 in favor of St. Joseph. At the third quarter St. Joseph was still leading the score 8 to 6, but at the final whistle the count was 12 to 8 in favor of Argentine. This was the hardest game on the Argentine schedule and the eighth Argentine victory this season. The score of the game with Bonner Springs was: Argentine 16, Bonner Springs 10. The game was a harder battle than was expected, but the home team managed to put it in its victory column. The final game of the season was played on Thanksgiving Day with Rosedale on the Argentine gridiron. The field was covered with six inches of snow. Both teams had to rely on line smashes, and to score seemed an impossibility, so the game ended in a 0 to 0 score.

It played a schedule of four games, winning the first three by close out-scores, and dropping the last one by a single point. It scored a total of 89 points, while its opponents were counting 14.

The Argentine high school basketeers opened their season by defeating the Gardner high five on the home court, December 21. The outcome, which was 29 to 6, was never in doubt. The Bonner Springs cagers invaded the Argentine camp January 4, and were crushed in defeat. The game was hard fought and interesting throughout, the final count being 31 to 15. Coach Watt used many “subs in the latter part of this game. The third team to lose to the Watt aggregation was the Warrensburg training high school five. The Warrensburg lads were husky and fast but were unable to de- feat the home team and had to return home on the short end of a 23 to 11 score. The first out-of-town game for Argentine was at St. Joseph, Mo., with the Benton high five. The game was hotly contested and the outcome was undecided until the whistle ended it. The score stood 21 to 17 in favor of Argentine. This was the fourth straight victory of the season for Argentine. 192 - Page Fifty-six 3-OjTrtE ARGEKUmm 3-t TflE argentian On January 19, the Excelsior Springs high five came to Argentine and lost a loosely played contest by a 31 to 14 count. The outcome was never in doubt. Coach Watt and his gold and blue quintet journeyed to Bonner Springs January 22, and for the second time during the season defeated the Bonner high basketeers. The final count was 27 to 15. Paola was the seventh victim of the “Wattites.” The contest was played on the home court and resulted in a 52 to 16 victory. The entire second team was used in the last half and the seconds had little trouble in rolling up the score. Argentine put its eleventh game on its schedule in the victory column by defeating the Liberty, Mo., high five. The contest was played on the Liberty court and the final count was 21 to 10. The game was hard fought from start to finish with Argentine keeping a few points in the lead. The strong Central high five of St. Joseph, Mo., met the gold and blue quintet on the home court February 8, and gave it one of the hardest battles it had during the season. Central handed Argentine the only defeat on its schedule last year, but Argentine was determined to get even this time, and did by winning a 19 to 17 victory. The game was hard fought from start to finish with Argentine leading the score at all times. The return game with the Benton hoopsters was played in the local gym and re- sulted in a victory for Argentine. The first contest with Benton was won by a 21 to 17 count, and the second by an 18 to 14 score, thus both were won by a margin of four points each. The second game with Liberty was played on the home court and resulted in a 34 to 14 victory for Argentine. The second team was used in the final period and experienced little trouble in adding points to the Argentine count. February 26 marked the date of probably the best game seen on the home court during the season. The contest was played with the Olathe quintet. The final result was 15 to 14 in favor of Argentine. The outstanding feature of the game was the close guarding displayed by both teams. The Watt aggregation was determined to put its last home game in the “W column and did so by defeating the William Chrisman cagers by a 28 to 17 count. Argentine met Independence early in the season and was defeated, but it spilled the “dope” in the second game and won easily. 192 - Page Fifty-seven 3¥mE ARGENTIANtf 3Flrst basket all JACK CAMPBELL. “Jack” was captain. He was a fast, hard player and always worked for the good of the team. He received a broken wrist early in the season, which kept him out of a number of games. During that time his services were greatly missed. EDMUN ASH. There are few forwards better than “Ed.” He won his second basket ball letter this year in Argentine high. He is one of the best all-around athletes in the school. CHARLES SALLEY. Salley won his first letter this year at forward, could always be depended on for a goal when needed. He was a “heady” player who HERBERT METZ. Metz won his first letter this year. He was a hard, consistent player who always guarded his man closely. His work was always snappy and fast and very few shots were made over his head. EMERALD KENNEDY. Kennedy played a sensational game at guard. His fast, snappy playing was a feature of every game. MYRL DILLON. “Potsy” played in many of the games and always played for the good of the team. He was an accurate goal shooter but always gave the man closest the goal a chance to try for the marker. CHARLES PITKIN. “Pity” played a hard, consistent game at guard. His good work was always noticeable and he was a hard man to get around. ROY GALLUP. Gallup proved himself exceptionally valuable to Argentine high this year. He played in a majority of the games and won his first letter in basket ball this year. RECORD OF BASKET BALL SEASON 21. A.

When Coach Watt issued a call for practice, twenty-two men turned out in uni- form and trained hard and consistently for each meet. The first meet was with Country Day school, Kansas City, Mo., on the latter’s field. The outcome was in favor of Argentine, the gold and blue team scoring 55 points while Country Day counted 22. The Watt “tracksters” journeyed to Shawnee Mission for their second meet, where they met and defeated the rural high team by 24 points, the score being 73 to 49. In the Kansas relays held in Lawrence, Kansas, April 18, the Argentine team scored five points. Argentine met Rosedale and succeeded in defeating it 55 to 54. Six track men entered the Baker Relay Carnival, May 2, and won 20 points, placing second in the meet. They also won four loving cups and thirteen gold medals.

Argentine junior high this year had one of the best junior high school track teams in the state. It won the interclass meet held at the Argentine athletic field early in the spring. At the Kansas relays, held at Lawrence, Kansas, April 18, it took third place, thus winning four gold medals. In the interclass meet, junior high won first place, by scoring 34 points. The sophomores were second with 33; the juniors third with 21; and the seniors fourth Departments Lucille Kelley has won five firsts for her school in her career as a typist. This started with a new record in the Northeast Kansas Typewriting contest, April, 1923, of seventy words per minute. She won first place in the subject of typewriting in the Emporia scholarship contest a week later, by eleven words above her nearest com- petitor. Later she won first in the eighth annual Kansas state typewriting contest with seventy-five net words a minute, beating the former record of seventy-two, also held by an Argentine high school student, by three words. On May 12 she won first in the first annual interstate typewriting contest, establishing a new record of eighty- one net words per minute. Her records were so good that she was induced to compete in the eighteenth annual international typewriting contest in New York City on Octo- ber 22, in the novice class, and was able to win second place in this event. April 19, 1924, she broke the world amateur record of ninety-nine by writing 102 net words per minute in the Kansas City Circle typewriting contest. Marie Ryan, Argentine’s latest “meteoric” typist, a sophomore and a novice, has written in only one contest, the recent Kansas City Circle high school meet. In this contest she established a new world record in high school competition by writing eighty-four net words per minute. Marie’s speed was considerably above that of any preceding beginning typist, and with a fair break in accuracy is capable of writing ninety words net per minute. 192 'S TKE ARGBNTIanXK (Tampion ZS pists LUCILLE KELLEY MARIE RYAN Page Seventy 3-0 TAE ARGENTIANtl (Dregg Writer (L. eam Top Row: Bishop, L.

This year a team of sixteen typists, including two novice writers, wrote for the third consecutive time in the C. T. international typewriting contest. This contest is offered by the “Gregg Writer,” a commercial publication, and is open to any school in the world. The papers are written in the class room, and the writers may write as many times on the copy as they find they are able within the month allotted. The copy changes each month, and the highest record of each student is taken for the year’s record. These records are added together to ascertain the final team rate for each school competing. Victory carries with it honorable mention for the school, a gold emblem to each member of the team and honorable mention to each member of the team in the pages of the magazine.

This group of eight students represented Argentine high school in both the state and interstate contests. The state contest was the ninth of its kind, while the inter- state was the second of that nature. Argentine has won all eight preceding state meets and also the first interstate contest which was held at Kansas City, Missouri, in 1923. The typewriting department has now won its twenty-second consecutive victory in typewriting contests. In the Kansas City Circle contest, which included any school within a radius of 100 miles of Kansas City, new world records were established in both the novice and amateur classes. In the novice class Marie Ryan wrote at the speed of eighty-four net words per minute, beating the former record by three words. Argentine has broken the world record three times in the novice class in as many years. In the amateur class Lucille Kelley wrote 102 net words per minute for a new record, beating a previous record of the school of ninety-nine words. This team competed for and won the state championship, May 3. At Des Moines, Iowa, May 17, it won interstate honors. 1924 Page Seventy-one zD X3flc TA.u6itorlum The auditorium is one of the finest and best equipped in the city. The stage is furnished with a velour curtain finished with a valence border. In a wreath on the valence is the monogram “A. H.

The room is wired with standard stage lighting equipment capable of staging any type of performance. RfTflE ARGENTIANtf pewrlting 3 oom The commercial department in Argentine high school was started September, 1909. In May, 1914, the typewriting department held its first contest, having for competitor Kansas City, Kansas. Each year since that time one or more contests have been held, ranging from city and county contests to state and interstate meets. Nine state con- tests have been held, all of which Argentine has won, making the number of consecu- tive victories now twenty-two. Typewriting students, competing in these contests, have established new world records, which have been bettered later by succeeding students in the department. For the past five years the champion novice writer of Kansas and of the United States in high school work has been a student of this school. Some notable records made by students: Catherine Murray, '23, when a sopho- more in high school, established a world novice record by writing seventy-two words per minute. The following year as a second year writer she wrote ninety-nine words per minute. These records were broken two years later by Lucille Kelley, ’25, who broke the novice record and established a new one by writing eighty-one words in the interstate contest at Kansas City, Missouri, May 12, 1923. Lucille also broke the second year record on April 19 of this year when she wrote 102 net words per minute in the Kan- sas City Circle contest. These records were again broken this year by Marie Ryan, who wrote eighty-four words per minute in the Kansas City Circle Contest for a new world novice record. 1924 Page Seventy-three scxi-xoxTin.Y IW Arth'd .

During the year 1919-1920, the publication of the paper under the title, The Buzzer, was be- gun as an extra-curricular activity. The next year a class in journalism that had charge of the publication was or- ganized. Since then, the paper has been handled by such a class. This year it was enlarged to a five-column paper and the name changed to The Argentian. It seemed better for it to have a name suggestive of the name of the school and for it to conform to the tendency of schools to have the same title for both the paper and annual. In the contest conducted this year by the Central Interscholastic Press Associa- tion, The Argentian was rated second in its class.

To be a member, a student must carry five subjects, three of which must be “solids,” make a grade of “one” in three subjects and no failing grades. Failure to maintain the required grades for more than two successive six-weeks’ periods after active membership has been gained, automatically drops a student from the organization. The following have been members some time during the year.

Membership in it is based on other qualities besides scholarship on account of the fact that junior high school organization and conditions differ somewhat from those of a senior high school. The cualities that determine membership are: scholarship, leadership, character and service to the school. Students considered eligible are voted upon by the entire faculty. The following have been members some time during the year.

The officers were: Mrs. Louis Helmreich, president; Miss Franc Sweet, first vice-president; Mrs. J. P. Edwards, second vice-president; Mrs. Alexander McClure, secretary; and Mrs. Ira Schrauger, treasurer. This organization was formed in order to bring the home and school into closer contact with each other and create a stronger bond betweeen parent, teacher and child. The school, as a whole, has been much benefited by the co-operation of the loyal workers of the organization and in turn the student body does its utmost to make Argentine high school one of the foremost schools of the city. The membership has increased from sixty-two in 1920 to seven hundred and four members in 1924. This makes the school a percentage of one-hundred and seventy- one; and places the parent-teacher association of Argentine first in the state of Kan- sas. The officers for the year 1924 are: Mrs. C. C. Bruce, president; Mrs. A. C. Hutchins, vice-president; Mrs. Fred Snyder, secretary; Mrs. E. B. Culp, treasurer. Argentine Activities Association The Argentine Activities Association, an organization of business men, originated ten years ago with the purpose of promoting unity and helping the Argentine com- munity and high school. It has been instrumental in obtaining for the people many improvements that would not have been made without its efforts. Largely through its insistent demands, the addition to the high school was built and it was its desire to have the present auditorium, in place of a combination gym- nasium-auditorium. It has backed the school in all its ventures and is always ready to aid new improvements in the community. The officers: C. D. Darnall, president; Leroy Arnold, vice-president; W. H. Reed, secretary-treasurer. 192 Page Ninety-four mxm Top Row—Bryant, Wing, Pierce, Miss Taylor (director), Rosen, Griffith, Beauchamp. Bottom Row—N. Miller, House. S. Clark, M.

To make a lengthened story short, The Pershing show is good; It takes you through a line of sport, In sympathetic mood, Then brings you safely into port, Well fed by Hollywood. —5— So lay your burdens at its feet, When you are tired and blue; And drink of romance true and sweet, As true souls long to do; And in the morning walk your beat, With life inspired and new.
