cjlrqentian ---------------------1 Published by ARGENTINE HIGH SCHOOL Kansas City. Kansas PREFACE ▼ This year's Argentian is presented in a form that permits a new type of layout and treatment of important material, yet retains all the features of former books. The Argentian has maintained its policy of giving every student the opportunity to have his picture represented in the book without any extra expense to him—a policy followed by few schools. The staff has taken as its theme the Tercentenary of Secondary Education as a means of bringing to the attention of the reader the advancement that high schools have made. The three division pages of the book, centenary, bicentenary, and tercentenary, show the stages of progress along the respective lines— the school, physical education, and activities. In the beginning the high school was concerned solely with the course of study. Next emphasis was placed on physical development and now activities are an important feature of every high school.

Three HIGH SCHOOL TERCENTENARY The year 1935 marks an important milestone in American history. It is the three hundredth birthday of the 28,000 high schools of the United States, for it was exactly three centuries ago that the good people of Boston voted for Phil- emon Pormont to become scholemaster for the teaching and nourtering of children with us. Thus the forerunner of modem American high schools and the founder of free education was launched and the forward movement of the world toward education began. Any stu- dent was eligible to enter this Boston Latin School provided that he was able to read. He was trained for the professions, and was ad- mitted regardless of race, creed, or purse. The tuition was free. However, there was one ex- ception: girls were not admitted to public schools until two hundred years had passed. Boys were admitted to the Boston Latin School in 1635 at the age of seven. When they were the age of fourteen they were thought to be ready for college. Now the student of today does not enter high school until he is fourteen. However, the junior high school is offering the benefits of secondary education to the students of eleven and twelve. Three hundred years ago the boys studied Latin almost exclusively. They studied the writings of Vergil, Cato, Corderius, and Ovid. They did not study English, for English was not considered respectable enough for the profes- sions of law, navigation, and theology. Today the students study about the modem writers such as Sinclair Lewis, Einstein, and Willa Cather. Today the schools offer courses of a voca- tional nature. Boys and girls are taught how to run a farm, repair a telephone, and things of practical use. The modem high school tends to educate the student as to how to live a social life, and is teaching him how to live by living. If twenty students enrolled in a Colonial Latin School the school was believed to be suc- cessful. Today, if 100 students are not enrolled in a school it is believed to be too small to give the student every opportunity. It is believed that the Colonial students attended school from seven in the morning to five in the afternoon during the summer months, and from eight to four in the winter months, and had only two hours at noon. The dream of the Colonial fathers is grad- ually shaping into the reality. There are now over six million high school students enrolled in schools, and there are 28,000 high schools now in the United States. The courses are taught which will do the students the most good in later life. However, with all its changes the modem high school has remained true to one tradition. It does not cater to any privileged class. The child of the poor is just as welcome as the child of a rich family. The high schools —Courtesy of Scholastic Magazin . Four BOSTON LATIN SCHOOL ARGENTINE HIGH SCHOOL have carried on a struggle for the education of every American youth for three centuries. This struggle will not slacken. Argentine High School has also taken an active part in the system of education. It, too, has progressed as the other high schools of the United States have gone forward. In 1908 it had an enrollment of approximately one hun- dred students, and was proud of its six rooms and auditorium, and its faculty of six teachers. The courses offered by Argentine High School in 1908 were: algebra, geometry (plain and solid), four years of Latin, two years of German, three of English, botany, physics and chemistry on alternate years, American his- tory, ancient history, and general science. In the graduating class that year there were eighteen members. Then in about two years typewriting, book- keeping, penmanship, shorthand, music, do- mestic science, and manual training were add- ed. The school then had athletics, but coaching was done as a side line by one of the regular teachers, without special training in this field. There were no extracurricular activities. All the school had was general assemblies and a senior play at the end of the year. The enrollment was increased to two hun- dred by the fall of 1918. Argentine had the largest gymnasium in Kansas City, and had made other progress, too. Scenery and foot- lights had been installed for its stage, and it had an orchestra; it had begun limited cafe- teria service; and it was also beginning to win honors. Then in the fall of 1919, Argentine made .its big start in athletics. This began with the adding of a coach. Also during this year a school paper was established, an annual was published, Camp Fire was organized, and other extracurricular activities were introduced. In 1921 the school had ten teachers and an enrollment of 225. In 1923 a large addition con- taining eleven classrooms and the present auditorium was built on, ten teachers were added to the faculty, and the school was changed to a junior-senior high school. And still the enrollment increased. In 1930 another addition was made to the building. The addition contains the gymnasium and eight more classrooms. The enrollment at that time was 809. Today the school is still going forward. It has an enrollment of 1,130 students, and a fac- ulty of twenty-nine teachers. Many extracurri- cular activities are carried on, and the courses of the school have been enlarged to meet the ever increasing demands of the social world. Argentine High School joins with the other high schools in celebrating this tercentenary of the American high schools, and rejoicing in the three hundredth anniversary of the founding of the school which was to change the future of the youth of America. Five Jtt IE muriam DR. D. E. CLOPPER Through the passing of Dr. D. E. Clopper, March 15, Argentine lost one of its truest friends. He was constantly working for the welfare of the community and the advancement of the high school. He was instrumental in obtaining the athletic field for the school and was one of a group of citizens whose efforts brought about the building of the gymnasium. At the time of his death he was a member of a com- mittee to discuss the possibility of adding an industrial unit to the school. As a member of the Board of Education he had the welfare of the school system at heart, but his special interest was Argentine High School. Six I---------------------------------------------------------- 1 By 1735 «ho Amorican high school had been founded for one hundred years. Its curriculum had boon little modifiod during its century of existence. It was still in a large measure confinod to the study of Latin and Grook. and still remained true to its program of pre- paring the student for his work in college. This type of school did not meet the demands of the generation. Tho Latin grammar schools wero losing their hold on the group which had previously patronized thorn, for interest was waning in the theological controversy. Tho loadorship in the com- munity. too. had changed. It was no longer with the clergy, but was now with the rising industrial and commercial executives. Thus the eighteenth century was marked by these religious, political, social economic, and scientific changes as one of the greatest in history. A new type of secondary school was formed because of these conditions. This school was hotter fitted to the needs of the time than had been the school with the Latin grammar-college combination. It was the Amer- ican academy. SUPERINTENDENT 'The tercentenary brings vividly to mind the progress which the American high school has made in its three hun- dred years of existence. It has accom- plished unbelievable advancement, and the dream of the school of the future is being realized—the dream of the ideal school in which the student may learn how to live by living. Social courses are now more in existence than ever before. The trend toward home- making and vocational courses will continue. The American high school offers untold opportunities to its masses of eager students to learn how to live by living. F. L. SCHLAGLE PRINCIPAL The first high school founded on American soil served a definite end; it trained young men for the ministry. The function of the high school broad- ened somewhat through the years, but remained definitely college preparatory for many decades. Finally, as more boys and girls enrolled, the high school became more comprehensive in its pro- gram. Today, three hundred years after the founding of the first school, one finds the typical American high school preparing students not only for college, but also for the vocations, for leisure time activities—for life itself.

T wentyseven NINTH GRADE CLASSES LEAD ENROLLMENT New Feature of Year Is Special Mixed Chorus Which Gives Students Knowledge of Glee Club Work The freshman class had an enrollment of 215 students at the beginning of the school term. Only nineteen students were dropped by the end of the first semester leaving 196 in the class at the close of the year. This is an increase of forty-three students over the enrollment of last year, and remains the largest class enrollment in the school. The class was made up of students coming from twenty-four different schools. The schools in Kansas City are: Noble Prentis, Stanley, Emerson, St. John, Junction, Franklin, Lowell, Central, Oak Grove, Northwest Junior, Clara Barton, and the John J. Pershing School. Some of the cities represented are: Crossville, Ten- nessee; Jefferson City, Missouri; and Cardin, Oklahoma. The following cities in Kansas are represented: Holliday, Leavenworth, Raven- wood, Overland Park, Madison, Banner and Sublette. This year the ninth grade class has been offered a special mixed chorus class to give the students with special talent more knowledge of the glee club work. This class had an enroll- ment of thirty-three. The ninth grade students participate in many of the activities of the school. There were fif- teen girls in the Girl Reserves. Mary Elizabeth Burch was president of the Junior Girl Reserves. Twenty boys played on the junior high basket ball team, and the freshman class had the fol- lowing six representatives in the Student Coun- cil: Dayton Jenkins, Robert Bradbury, Dorothy Jean Gould, Mary Elizabeth Burch, Virginia King, and Ruth Bruce. In the freshman English classes clubs were organized under the instruction of Miss Henri- etta Conrad. These clubs held meetings once a week during the class period. The freshman class was represented in the school band by twelve members. The ninth graders also played an outstand- ing part in school sports. Edith Anderson and Margaret Harmon won the deck tennis tourna- ment in the junior high, while the freshman volley ball team was successful in winning the junior high tournament. The junior high girls' athletic association sponsored a Hallow-e'en party, October 29, in the gymnasium. In order to receive a diploma a ninth grade student must have made fifteen units during his junior high school years. He must take English, home making (girls), physical training, and civics during his freshman year. The majority of the students intend to enter the senior high school after graduation. The students elected these officers this year president, John Broomfield; vice-president, Lois Jean Burns; secretary, Margaret Stevens; treas- urer, Treasure Lloyd; and cheer leader, J. D. Thomas. Miss Henrietta Conrad, a new member of the faculty who teaches English, history and civics was the class sponsor. Other new ninth grade teachers were Miss Alma Brown who teaches physical education and health; Miss Lucille Landis, instructor of history, English, and business arithmetic; and Mr. Arthur Jolliff who teaches beginning strings and band.

By 1835. the bicentenary of the founding of the American high school, little progress had been made in physical education. Today there is no West to win; there are no trails to blaze to new farm lands; thore are few homes where tho chores demand a youth's full time around the house. His job today is to prepare for responsibilities in a new and changing world. To do this he needs a body full of strength and vitality. The physical education program of today aims to give every boy and girl training in health habits, to give physical activity and health sorvice for the needs of each, to give knowledge of how to play somo games that can be played through life, and to de- velop good manners of sportsmanship.

MUSTANGS WIN FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP By Defeating Wyandotte Bulldogs and Rosedale Wildcats Argentine Gains Right to City Title On the long end of top heavy scores the Argentine Mustangs won over two ancient city rivals, the Wyandotte High School eleven and the green and white clad Wildcats of Rosedale, by 25 to 7 and 19 to 0 scores respectively. By virtue of these two wins the local team laid claim to the city title, along with Ward High School, with whom no competition was held. In defeating the Wyandotte Bulldogs the Mustangs found a smooth working offensive and a powerful defense which continued throughout the remainder of the season. The first half of the battle found the Argentians trailing the Wyandotte boys by a six to seven margin. However, the opening of the second half found the blue and gold clad boys run- ning wild, scoring three touchdowns and an extra point for a total of nineteen points while holding the Wyandotte boys scoreless. In win- ning over the Bulldogs the Mustangs, under the coaching of John Lonborg. who has tutored the local eleven for the past four seasons, evened the count at two games all, with Wyan- dotte, since the present coach has taken over the football reins. The annual Thanksgiving Day battle with the Rosedale High School team saw the Lon- borg boys gaining ground and scoring almost at ease. The game was played in an almost continuous downpour of rain which slowed up play considerably. By virtue of their second victory in the city title race with the win over Rosedale and no defeats and their fourth win out of six frays in the Northeast Kansas league. the Mustangs found themselves resting in the topnotch positions of both the local and North- east league races. The only Argentine defeat came at the hands of the 1934 Northeast Kansas league cham- pions, the Olathe High School Eagles, on the local gridiron by the narrow margin of 6 to 0. The Eagles' lone counter came in the fourth quarter after both teams had threatened sev- eral times. The local team was forced to punt, and due to the strong wind, was unable to get little yardage, thus paving the way for the only score. The only other blot on the Argentine sched- ule found the Leavenworth High School eleven holding the Argentians to a scoreless tie. After being held scoreless for two games, the Mustangs broke loose for the remainder of the season, scoring one hundred one points while holding their opponents to thirteen. After finding an offensive which opponents were unable to hinder in any way, the Argen- tine eleven ran wild over the Atchison Redmen by a 32 to 6 score and found an easy mark in the Indians of Shawnee-Mission who were trounced by the decisive margin of 25 to 0; in addition to their league victories, the Mustangs also defeated the Westport High School Tigers by a 6 to 0 score in the first game of the season. The Argentine team by gaining a clean hold on second place of the Northeast Kansas league title and tie for the City title completed the most successful season in several years.

Thirtyfive WINNING STREAK HELPS QUINTET SEASON Team Shows Offensive Power by Finishing Second to Champions in Northeast League Scoring In defeating the Rosedale High School Wild- cats, February 1, on the local court the local quintet not only knocked the green and white clad boys out of the Northeast Kansas league championship, but also started a winning streak which was broken only by the Leaven- worth High School Pioneers in the semi-final round of the regional tournament held on the latters' court. With eight lettermen among the squad the outlook for a victory over the powerful Wyan- dotte Bulldogs in the first league game for both teams was the best in recent years; but after a hard fought battle the boys from the north side of the Kaw River emerged the victors by a 17 to 11 margin. After their first league defeat the local squad was unable to click until it met the Shawnee-Mission team on the local court fol- lowed by the Redmen of Atchison High School from whom the blue and gold boys were easy victors of 29 to 12 and 32 to 16 scores respec- tively. The three following weeks found the locals in a slump dropping games to the Leavenworth, Olathe and Wyandotte teams. After losing five of their first seven league frays, the squad found a scoring punch which smothered all opposition by large margins and held their opponents to small scores. The first victim in the seven-streak winning column of the Lonborg quintet was the then leading Northeast Kansas league Rosedale High School team. The game was a battle throughout with the Argentine team holding a slight advantage throughout the entire game. Leading at the half 12 to 8, the Mustangs continued to build up a lead of 23 to 13; at this point one of the local boys was forced to leave the game. After four minutes of play had passed, another Mus- tang regular committed his fourth personal foul of the evening. This left the locals with no boys over five feet ten inches in the game, but by playing the ball, they were able to eke out a 29 to 26 victory over the Wildcats of Mount Marty. On the following weekends the Mustang quintet handed Shawnee-Mission, Atchison, William Chrisman, Leavenworth, Olathe and Washington defeats by decisive margins. In winning seven out of their twelve league games the Lonborg boys tied for the third notch position with the Pioneers of the Leavenworth. Kansas High School. The Mustang offensive power was shown by finishing second in scoring to the Northeast Kansas league champions, Wyandotte High School, scoring 345 points to the opposition's 274, while the Bulldogs scored 357 against 202. Two of the members of the local squad, Eugene Hiatt and Jack Buckman, showed their scoring power. Hiatt finished second in the league and city scoring with 102 and 130 points respectively while Buckman held the league scoring record in one game for the season with ten field goals and one free toss for a total of twenty-one points.

JUNIOR HIGH BASKET BALL Thirty-seven COACH ADOPTS NEW BASKET BALL PLAN Active Service of Thirty-Five Junior High Students Is Preparation for Senior High Squad Work This year a new plan was adopted by C. E. Swender, coach, in the handling of the Junior High School basket ball. In the past only a few boys have seen active service either on the first or the second squad; this year in an at- tempt to build up material for the Senior High School squad fifteen boys saw active service on the first squad with twenty gaining experi- ence on the second. The squad, for the first time in several years enjoyed the scheduling of regular season games, and by winning eight of the fourteen games enjoyed a fair season. Included in the schedule were Rosedale, Pembroke-Country Day, Wyandotte Sophomores and Freshmen, Turner and Morris. CLUB SETS SPORTSMANSHIP STANDARDS Membership in Organization Depends on Earning One Letter in Major Sport or Two in Minor The “A Club, an organization of all boys in the senior high school receiving one letter in a major sport, football, basket ball, or track, or receiving two in a minor sport, such as tennis and golf, is one whose entire basis is athletics. The purpose of the club is to aid in developing clean and upright sportsmanship among the home and visiting teams. This year the organization conceived a new idea of raising money for its activities by an all-school athletic night. The event was held in the gymnasium and included basket ball by the high school and faculty teams, boxing. wrestling, track and gymnastics. Approximate- ly ninety students of the school participated. In addition to this a picture show was held at the Pershing Theater. The annual dinner-dance of the club was held May 17, at Quivera Lake Club House with approximately one hundred guests at- tending. Martin Boyle '35, president; Lee Howard '35, vice-president; and Eugene Hiatt '35, secre- tary-treasurer, were the officers throughout the 1934-35 school term. First Row—Wiseman. McDonald. Irey.

TENNIS SQUAD BOASTS FIVE LETTERMEN Argentine Racquet Wielders Compete for Places in Regional Tournament and State Meet The local tennis squad in addition to engag- ing several local schools in matches also en- joyed two meets with St. Joseph High School; one on the local courts and the other on St. Joseph's. In the Northeast Kansas league meet and the regional tournament, the members of all teams competed to qualify for the state meet held a week later at Wichita. The squad of eight members this year was made up of five lettermen, Richard Heatherton, captain; John Shannon, Marion Cole, Chett Eckman and Edwin Walker. In addition to these lettermen several of last year's squadmen re- turned. The local tennis squad was defeated by the Pembroke-Country Day racquet wielders on the City Park courts, April 5. The Pern boys showed superior to the Mustang squad in the singles, winning three of the four single matches, but were held even on the doubles matches, each team winning one. The local victor was the doubles team of Harris and Walker, who after losing the first 2-6 came back strong to defeat Smith and Morh, 6-1, 6-1. The other Argentine victory came in the singles division when Kussman defeated Kempter in straight sets 6-3, 6-4. THREE LETTERMEN ARE ON GOLF TEAM Engage in Several Dual Meets with Schools and Enter Northeast Kansas League Competition The golf team with three of the four letter- men of last year returning was scheduled for several dual meets with local schools and en- tered in the Northeast Kansas league and regional meets. Dale Harris, captain; Lyle Offutt and Edward Hutchison are the letter- men who formed the nucleus of the four man team. The fourth, Ralph Wire, was selected from several of last year's squadmen. The Topeka High School ’’club swingers were victorious in a quadrangular golf meet which was held April 6, over the Victory Hills Golf Club, from three Kansas City, Kansas, high schools. The four Topeka golfers had a total medal score of 332, Argentine, second with 336; Rosedale, third with 345 and Wyan- dotte bringing up the rear with 353. Dale Harris, captain and number one man of the local squad had the low individual score, 76, five over par. Thirty-nine MUSTANG TRACK MEN HAVE BIG SEASON C Under Leadership of C. E. Swender Team Comes to Front in Entries in Outstanding Meets With twelve lettermen among the approxi- mately forty men reporting for track the out- look for the best season the Mustangs have had on the track in recent years was forecast. Of these twelve lettermen five, Arthur Hultz, 120-yard high hurdles and Captain Eugene Hiatt, pole vaulter; Robert Bean, 200-yard low hurdles; Jack Buckman, high jump and Jack Darnell, 880-yard run, were Northeast Kansas league champions. Up until five years ago, when C. E. Swender, now present coach, took over the reins of the track squad, the school did not have any out- standing members, and because of the lack of an athletic field within a short distance, Ar- gentine was not represented in any outstand- ing meets except by one or two athletes. In recent years a track acquired within a short distance of the school has caused a large num- ber of athletes to turn out for the squad. This year the Mustangs had an attractive schedule. In addition to dual meets with Rose- dale and Shawnee-Mission High Schools the local tracksters also entered the Kansas Uni- versity and Baker relays, the Northeast Kansas league meet, the Regional meet, and the state meet at Wichita. In winning ten out of a possible fourteen firsts the Mustang tracksters scored a victory in a quadrangular meet held at North Kansas City, April 5. They scored 58 points. The local squad was followed by North Kansas City with 44 points, Harrisonville, 19 2 and Pembroke- Country Day, 41 2. Hultz and Richardson were high scorers for Argentine, both winning two firsts. Richardson also was a member of the winning 880-yard relay team. Carr of North Kansas City led his team, winning two firsts and a second place. The schedule: March 28—Intcr-class Track. April 5—Rosedale. April 12—Shawnee-Mission at Wyandotte. April 16—Rosedale. April 19—Kansas University Relays. April 23—Rosedale. April 26—Baker Relays. May 4—Northeast Kansas League.

Forty TRACK TEAM CLUBS AROUSE NEW INTEREST IN SPORTS Girls Earn Points for Membership in Organization by Participating in Sports Open to Them Interest in girls' sports has shown an increase over the past few years with three clubs now open to the girls for the purpose of stimulat- ing interest in girls' sports activities. The girls' athletic association is the most ac- tive of these three clubs. Any girl interested in sports may become a member. There are two such clubs, one to stimulate interest in the sen- ior high sports and the other in the junior high. Two minor clubs are operated through these two organizations. One is the Girls’ A Club. A girl cannot become a member of this club unless she has a total of 1,000 points. The sec- ond is the numeral club. To become a member of this a girl must have a total of 600 points. The points required for entrance to these clubs are acquired by participation in the dif- ferent sports open to girls. These sports are tennis, volley ball, basketball, deck tennis, baseball, and archery. A total of twenty-five additional points are given all girls making the class team, and fifty points are given to girls making the all-star team. The junior class won two victories out of three of the major sports in the inter-class tournaments. Dorothy Lehman and Dorothy Hall paired together in the deck tennis tourna- ment, won the title of champions by defeating the freshman team composed of Margaret Harmon and Edith Anderson. The junior class also came out victorious in the girls' inter-class basketball tournament held January 15, at the Argentine Parish House. It succeeded in down- ing the freshman team by a score of 27-13 while the freshman class had beaten the sopho- mores in a previous game by a score of 19-15. The sophomore class was victorious in the inter-class volley ball tournament. The fresh- man team won in the junior high tournament and met the sophomore team but was defeated by a 21-15 score. Then it played the junior class and won by the score of 11-4. This year Agnes Smith '36 was chosen the outstanding girl in the athletic classes, and pre- sided over the annual gymnasium exhibit which was held March 29. Her six attendants were Loretta Burton '36, Juanita Atkinson '35, Tonnie Hattley '35, Ethel Brown '35, Treasure Lloyd '38, Frances Norwood '35, Marion Haney '35, and Doris Hultz '39. Firs!

Forty’two The high school students of today have many op- portunities. They have their choice of many activities; their instructor is no longer a person to be looked upon with awe. but is a person to be looked upon as a companion, guide and leader. The courso of study is much more democratic than it was in former days. The boys attending tho Boston Latin school studied Latin almost exclusively. They were prepared for the professions, such as the ministry, and they studied the writings of Vorgil. Cato, Cordorius. and Ovid. They were not taught things of practical value such as repairing a telephone, or building a house. That was to come later. Thoy could not take the courses they wanted, and their individual tastes and talents were not considered. Now the students are educated to meet the chang- ing social order. There are school organizations which give the student an outlet for his leisure time, and also help him in looming to live a happy, useful life. These studies have now come to be taken for grant- ed. Thero are coursos in gardening, in shorthand and typing, and in singing. In fact almost any line of talent that the student possesses may be developed. The social life has become greatly enlarged. School organizations provide a way for the students to learn how to live socially, and yet be a benefit to the world. I — ■ I BETTY JANE EASLEY, IRENE DE WEESE DONALD TAYLOR, WILLIAM LEEP WINNERS OF ANNUAL CONTEST IRENE DE WEESE IS QUEEN OF YEARBOOK T The Argentian conducted a contest to choose a queen of the annual and leading citizen from the senior high school and a queen's attendant and leading citizen of the junior high school. Votes were given for subscriptions to the an- nual and for any advertising secured. At the beginning of the contest nominations of candidates by petition were made in all classes; then two were chosen from the nomi- nees. Irene De Weese, a senior, received the largest number of votes for annual queen and Donald Taylor, a junior, received the largest number among the boys for leading citizen. Betty Jane Easley, ninth grade, was chosen queen's attendant and William Leep, leading citizen of the junior high school. Forty‘four STUDENT COUNCIL First Row—Barton. Stowart. Grtllin. Dillon.

STUDENT COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE GUIDES Organization Stresses School Citizenship, Furthers Education, and Cultivates Personality Traits The Student Council has attempted to follow- up a program of three points this year in en- deavoring to help the students of Argentine High School. The first point that the council stressed was the promoting of a favorable type of school citizenship. The council has attempted in the five years of its existence to further this objec- tive in every way, and according to J. C. Har- mon, principal of Argentine and sponsor of the student council, the results of the drive are self apparent. The second objective that the council has taken under its wing is the preparation and guidance of students who intend to continue their schooling in college. Material has been distributed to the seniors known to be inter- ested in college work. The third point the council has attempted to encourage is desirable personality traits. An effort has been made to reduce the amount of gum chewing in public, and discourage the practice of similar undiscriminating undesir- able traits. The requirements for membership in the Student Council specify that a student must have passing grades in all his work of the previous semester. Membership is considered an honor, for only the following are eligible: presidents of each class; captains of athletic teams; presidents of clubs in the school; editor and business manager of the school paper and annual; home room chairmen; and the upper twenty-five per cent of the senior class. There are eighty-six members of the council. The Student Council officers elected for the 1934-1935 term were: J. D. Richardson, presi- dent; Eunice Butler, vice-president; and Clyde Andrews, secretary. EUNICE BUTLER HEADS GIRL RESERVES Eunice Butler '35 was elected president of the Senior High Girl Reserves this year. Jane Thomas was elected vice-president.

OPERETTA IS ONE OF LEADING EVENTS Four Hundred Students Take Some Form of Music—Strings and Woodwind Classes Aid Beginners An operetta. The Count and the Coed, presented by the members of the boys' and girls' glee clubs, and also by the newly organ- ized chorus class, March 7-8, was the main event given by the music department for this year. The leading parts in the operetta were taken by Maxine Richardson, Carol Cromwell, Donald Powell, Lyman Ketchum, Louise Dar- gan, Lorraine Murphy, John Shannon, J. D. Richardson, Jack Jesse, Verda Bell, and Donald Taylor. This presentation was under the direc- tion of Miss Mona Walter, Miss Edna Barnes, and Mr. Arthur Jolliff. The boys' and girls' glee clubs with the orchestra and mixed glee club also presented a Christmas program. The music department had a large increase this year in the number of students. Approxi- mately 410 students were engaged in some form of music work. Three new classes were added to the department—a class in string instruments, one in woodwind instruments, and a mixed chorus class. Because of the increase a new instructor was added to the department, Mr. Arthur Jolliff. Mr. Jolliff instructed the band, strings and wood- wind groups and the boys' glee club. Miss Mona Walter, for six years an instructor in the music department of this school, directed the orchestra, girls' glee club, mixed glee club, and the seventh grade chorus.

Another important event for the music de- partment was the annual Northeast League Spring Festival held in Atchison, Kansas, April 6. The boys' and girls' glee clubs, the mixed glee club, and the orchestra took part in this event. These groups also took part in the annual music week held in Kansas City. Kansas. The boys' glee club had a membership of thirty-four this year. These members enter- tained in regular assemblies and in various public places. The mixed glee club was a new class in the music department this year. There were forty- six freshmen and sophomores in the class. These students aided the boys' and girls' glee clubs in the operetta, Christmas program, music week, and the spring festival. The girls' glee club with thirty-six members took part in practically the same activities as the boys' glee club. Another new feature this year was the new band uniforms. They are yellow and gold, the school colors. The blouses are gold colored satin, while the skirts and trousers are blue corduroy. The band was in uniform at all games of the year. Taking into consideration all the activities of the department, the music department had one of the most successful years during its exist- ence. First Row—Woodhead. McCormick. Bonder. Lembcrgor.

TYPISTS ARE FIRST IN TROPHY CONTEST Argentine Has Won in Annual Competition lor Six Consecutive Years and in State, Sixteen Times Lois Pooker '35, placed first in the annual Kansas State Typing Contest this year, writing a net of 78.78 words a minute with seven errors, in the amateur speed division. Riley Killmer '35, placed third in the novice accuracy divi- sion, writing a perfect paper with a net of 43 words a minute. Edmund Thomas placed fourth in amateur accuracy. Argentine has won the Kansas State Typing Contest sixteen out of a possible twenty times. The contest was started in 1916 and for ten consecutive years Argentine placed first. They again came to the top in 1930, '31, '33, and '34. Argentine holds the Kansas State Typing records for accuracy and speed. Katherine Murray '23, won the amateur award in 1922 writing at a rate of 99 words per minute. Lucille Kelly '24, won the novice award in 1923 writing at a rate of 75 words a minute. Shirley Sweezy '31, won the amateur accuracy division writing at a rate of 60 words per minute without error. These contests are sponsored to give inter- est to the student to become acquainted with typing and to build up his skill and ability. For the sixth consecutive time Argentine placed first in the annual Kansan Trophy con- test with a score of 38 points out of a possible sixty. Emma Mae West placed first in the amateur speed division, with a net of seventy- three words a minute with six errors. Mary Elizabeth Magnenat, placed first in the amateur accuracy division, writing a perfect paper with a net of 59 words a minute. Shirley Appleton placed first in the novice speed division, with a net of 52 words a minute and seven errors. Approximately 250 students enroll each year in the commercial course which includes typing and shorthand. About one-sixth of this number finish the complete course which includes two years of both typing and shorthand. The school has forty-two typewriters and sev- eral dictaphones which the students use. The dictaphones are still new in the school and only the advanced shorthand students are using them, so that they may become accustomed to the technicalities of the machines. The students spend enough time on dictaphone practice to enable them at the end of the year to obtain a position in v hich the dictaphone is used. Three students in the advanced shorthand class passed their 120-word transcription tests. Only five other students have passed this test in the entire history of the school. The three students were Berdeen Griffin, Edith Marr, and Evanelle Ritter. Forty-eight DEBATE SQUAD First Row—Irons, Colo, Eckman. Lamp©. Second Row—Walker, Taylor, Colvin, Powell. Third Row—Jirik, J.

GIRLS LEAD JUNIOR HIGH HONOR SOCIETY Five Students Are Members of Organization Since Its Beginning and Four Pupils, for Two Years They were chosen in the same manner in which they have always been chosen which is confined to the following five steps: 1. Each teacher instructing a grade in the junior high school makes out a list of students he thinks to be outstanding in scholarship. 2. These lists are combined into one large list. 3. Perman- ent records are gone over and names thought needed are added to this list. 3. This list is again sent out to junior high teachers who check names of students thought to be out- standing in scholarship, leadership, service to school, and character. 5. One teacher for each grade takes these last checked names to each teacher in that grade. After discussion the final list for each grade is submitted to the office. Of the thirty-one students who are members of the Junior Honor Society, twenty are girls. In the ninth grade, ten of the thirteen, are girls; in the eighth grade, five of the eight students are girls; and in the seventh grade, five of the ten students are girls. Four of the girls have been in this organization since its organiza- tion three years ago. They are Maxine Cole, Margaret Teufler, Anna Walker, and Elsie Wolf. One boy, Clyde Andrews, has also been in this society for the full three years. Four students have been in the Junior Honor Society for two years. They are John Broom- field, Lois Jean Burns, Margaret Harmon, and Jewel Huff. For the year 1933-34 thirty-one students were chosen into this society—ten from the seventh grade, eight from the eighth, and thirteen from the ninth. ARGENTINE HAS NEW PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM Mr. Seth N. Patterson Gives Gift as Memorial to His Wife Who Was Active in Educational Work This year a new feature of the school was the public address system which proved to be a great aid in the giving of the announcements for the day, and in delivering messages, which otherwise would necessitate the sending of messages to each room and would result in lost time for the students and for the classrooms. The public address system operates from its central base in the school office, and is con- nected to each room. The school auditorium and the gymnasium are also included in this service. It is also possible for radio programs to be heard in the different rooms. Mr. Seth N. Patterson, whose daughter, Nancy, is a member of this year's graduating class, gave the public address system to the school as a memorial to his late wife, Mrs. Ruth Goodrich Patterson.

MUSTANG CLUB GIVES STUNTS AT GAMES Every Member of Pep Organization Participates in at Least One Event During High School Term Approximately nine stunts were given by the Mustang Club, or pep organization of the high school, as added attractions at football and basket ball games. All members of the club did not participate in each event presented, but all were at sometime in one of the stunts. The types of stunts given ranged from the ridiculous to the sublime. There were games presented by the boys in which they used brooms and a volley ball and formal marching and formation of figures and letters by the girls. At one of the basket ball games an exhibition by the gymnasium team was sponsored by the club. Perhaps one of the most interesting stunts was a football game between some members of the club and small junior high boys. The game was played on scooters and all rules were disregarded in the course of the game. A new plan for membership was inaug- urated this year and a larger number of the student body was represented in the club. The presidents of the senior high classes and the school cheer leaders automatically became members of the club. All others were chosen by ballot vote. That is, all members of their respective classes voted only for those in their classes. The percentage of each class having the highest number of votes were then ad- mitted to the organization. The membership this year totaled sixty. The club adopted the same type of uniform as was used last year. The girls' uniforms con- sisted of turtle-neck sweaters with white skirts and shoes, and the boys wore V-neck sweaters, white trousers, and white shoes. Members are required to wear the uniforms at all basket ball and football games. The officers of the club for the past year were Lyman Ketchum '35, president; James Brady '35, vice-president; Mary Davidson '35, secre- tary; John Shannon '35, treasurer; and Neil Hackett '36, cheer leader.
