It has been the purpose of the staff to touch upon the various phases of school endeavor as outlined and directed by the faculty and participated in by the student body, to the end that this annual record will bring pleasant and refreshing memories as the years roll by. It is our sincere hone that the book meets with your approval, and after school is out and summer has faded into autumn and winter comes that it will find itself among your treasures of life. Although it may become worn and faded, may it ever keep green in your memory the pleasure and inspiration of your association with the faculty, students, and events of this school year. We wish to thank our patrons, the faculty, and student body for their cooperation which has made this work possible. Now to you who turn the pages of this volume, we wish a “pleasant journey,” whatever road of life you may choose. —The Editor DEDICATION his hook is gratefully dedicated to Supcrinlendent, J.

Orchestra U”dcr Direction of Guy Fuller In place of the usual operetta the mixed chorus of more than one hundred voices presented selections from the light opera “Pinafore,” by Sullivan, and from Gounoud’s well-known “Faust.” The numbers from “Pinafore” includ°d those which are styled as the leading and most popular ones, namely: “I’m Called Little Buttercup;” Josephine’s sentimental song, and one of the few serious numbers in the opera, “Sorry Is Her Lot Who Loves Too Well;” Sir Joseph Porter’s song. “I Am the Monarch of the Sea,” with its irre-sistable choral refrain “A d so are his Sisters and his Cousins and his Aunts,” leading up to a satirical song. “When I Was a Lad. I Served a Term;” and many others including the choral finale, “Then Give Three Cheers And One Cheer More.” The music from the world-famous “Faust” has enjoyed unfailing popularity since its first presentation in Paris, in 1859. The story tells of Faust, a German philosopher, who, after a life of meditation, wearies of the emptiness of human knowledge and his own inability to unravel the mysteries of Nature. He summons to his aid the Spirit of Evil, who appears to him under the form of Mephistopheles. Through the powers of the latter Faust is shown a vision of the beautiful Marguerite and he then signs a contract with Mephistopheles, is changed into a young man, and gives himself up to a life of pleasure. In the end Marguerite dies in prison to the chant of a heavenly choir, as Mephistopheles, carrying out the terms of the contract, drags Faust with him into the regions below. The popularity of “Faust” is due almost wholly to the exquisite music. The chorus presented arrangements of “The Waltz,” “O Night of Love,” “Angels Ever Bright” and the stirring “Soldiers Chorus.” Page Thirty-two Football Dustin (Mgr.). Magor. Grant. Groff. Corrington.

Peru, 19%; Humboldt, 33% Girls’ Basket Ball Although girls’ basket ball was an unorganized activity and was not provided for in the schedule, a group of girls showed enough interest to be present at practice two nights a week. Two color teams were organized with Leona Mae GrofT and Mary Ann Gibbons as captains. A preliminary game was played during the season and a selected group attended the basket ball play day at Nebraska City. Many of the girls developed a high degree of skill, and all derived much pleasure from this activity. It is hoped that some time in the near future it will be possible to have organized sports for girls. The following girls made up the teams: MARY ANN GIBBONS—Captain LEONA MAE GROFF—Captain STARLEEN WHITMORE BARBARA SCHMIDT GLADYS HUTTON EVELYN HACKER ROSA LEE SANDERS MARY GROVENBURG ELIZABETH NIXON THELMA BRUSH ARDITH JUDD MERVALYN PASCO JEANETTE GRANT BERTHA CHAMBERS WANDA MAE KING Miss Olson Sponsor Page Thirty-six Cheer Leaders e CHEERING SECTION The student body has responded well to the leadership of Tod Hubbel!, Margie Fraser, and Mary Grovenburg during the entire year. As proof that the work done by the cheer leaders and the cheering section was appreciated we have the following statements from the boys who captained the various sports: “Winning or losing the cheering section was always loyal and pulling for the team.” DICK WILSON, Football Co-Captain “I believe that the cheering section is on the upgrade. The cheers and spirit increased 100% from last year. If it improves as much in the next year as it has in the past, the old Bulldog spirit will be envied by all the neighboring schools.” JACK GLEN, Football Co-Captain “The student section came through this year in fine shape. Whether the team was winning or losing, but fighting its best, many cheers kept coming from the sides. Each student showed plenty of fire and pep.” LLOYD GRITZ, Basket Ball Co-Captain “Auburn is very loyal to its athletics and it’s a pleasure to do one’s best with such student encouragement.” “Thanks to the noisie music to our ears.” WAYNE SCHAFFER, Track Co-Captain eering section in southeast Nebraska!

The members are divided into three groups headed, respectively, by Tod Hubbell, Felista Handley, and Wanda Mae King. During the year a Junior Dramatic Contest was held. The winners in each division were: Tod Hubbell, oratorical; Anselm Johnson, humorous; Naomi Barnhart, dramatic. The three one-act plays “Not Quite Such a Goose,’L“At the Stroke of Twelve,” and “Tea for Aunt Priscilla” were presented. The casts for these plays were selected by try-outs and each group of the club was represented in each play.

ADD ANOTHER VICTORY TO- Auburn Slow In Starting Be-' cause of Larger Floor But j Swung Into Action to Win Fast Tussel Against Rough and I Ready Opponents. Coach Higgins and his 193G Bulldog five added another victory Friday night at Nebraska ; City when they defeated the | team there 16 to 13,. in a fast . tussle against rough and ready i opponents. The first half was j decidedly in Auburn’s favor, and even though the local boys weren’t decorating the hoop in their usual manner they took advantage of free tosses given them from seven personals by ; the Nebraska City lads. Again Auburn was a little bit slow on the start trying to get accustomed to the larger floor and Handley garnered the only goal during the period. Corring-ton started the game for Gritz, who is recuperating from an attack of the flu, and when Gritz finally got in, it was evident that he was seriously handicapped, making only one free toss I in the first quarter and a nice j counter in the second. This one; in the second plus another one i by Handley and a free one gave I Auburn a 9-4 lead at the rest I period. Immediately after the rest period Grant playing his usual outstanding game at center, . was donated his third personal. ! and showed the opponents that their scrapping attitude meant little to him by dropping two nice counters to give Auburn a ten point lead in a 15-5 count.! However, try as he might, Grant j was forced into his fourth per-sonal in a few minutes putting him out of the contest. With Schaffer carrying three of the same the boys were forced to let down on their tight defense, I allowing the opponents to creep. [ or perhaps smash, to within five. points, with the score 16 to 11. The last quarter of the game j developed into a variety of j sports with the boys racing; back and forth as though it was ! a track meet, and with a certain I element of football added, the; last stanza was anything but pleasing to a large group of enthusiastic basketball fans. Au-1 burn’s score remained the same I during the stanza and the City! managed to garner one counter, the game ending 16 to 13. Hand-1 ley was high point man with 7 i points,__ The Auburn second string also ! met rough competition in their j game but managed to outplay j the Nebraska City reserve? 17 to ! 1 A ' The lineup: y Auburn (16) fg ft pf pt; Corrington, f .. .0 0 0 0 Gritz. f .. .1 1 1 3 Handley,, (c) f ... .. .3 t 0 7 1 Grant, ci . . .2 0 4 4 Wilson, .q . . .0 0 1 0 .

Bulldogs durum the season just ended, Glen V Marshall, who covered the games for The Herald in very fine manner, says: ”A survey of the 1935 foo’.ba'.i i season shows that Auburn Hl?h 1 won 4 games, lost 3 and tied one. : Thoy made a total of 102 points against 69 points by their combined opponents. There is no reason for regret, in a season like that, especially when one considers that they were outweighed in practically every game. Here go my compliments to Coach Higgins and a fighting squad for their season’s I showing. TOOK FAST GAME FROM PERU TEAM AUBURN WON VICTORY OVER PERU PREP TEAM Ccach Higgins’ Basketecrs Won Fast Game On Floor At Peru College Gym Last Friday Night With Score of 23 to 1G in Second Half Rally. Coach Higgins' basketeers ro4a high, wide and handsome over i the Peru Bobkittens in the Peru college gym last Friday night, when they defeated them 23-16 in another second half rally. As in the game the preceding week the local boys trailed at the half, waiting until the second i period to make their drive and added 18 of their points in that time. Peru jumped into the lead early in the first stanza with a counter by Cowell, plus one by Polston and a free one gave them a 5-1 start over Auburn. As the second quarter opened the local boys were getting accustomed to the large floor and Grant and Gritz each tallied1 with one apiece, decreasing Peru's lead one point. The score at the rest period was 5-8. A fighting Bulldog five were! out there after the half and were working a thrilling bang-up offensive that couldn’t be stopped. Grant counted with a nice shot, bringing Auburn within 2 points, but Cowell of Peru added another, setting them back again. And then two quick plays fed to Handley counted both times and the score was even, 11-11. Grant and Cowell both tallied again I before the quarter ended, 13 to! 13. In the last stanza the Bulldogs tightened up with their excellent defense and allowed the Kittens only 3 free tosses during the quarter. In the meantime Gritz opened up, and followed a beautiful shot) from the side by Grant, with! two long ones that hardly dusted I the net. The Auburn fans were being awarded for their unfailing support. Another nice play was fed through to Handley who counted as usual, and Gritz added the last one to put the game on ice, 23 to 16. Gritz and Grant were the two high point men with 8 and 9 points! respectively. !

From the first tip off the locals were too fast and shifty for their opponents and ran circles around them, leading at the half by a count of 11 to 2, and were at no time in danger of a scoring threat. The Auburn lineup included: L. Gritz (captain) and Robert Irvin at forward, Howard Henderson at center, Don Simmons and Dick Wilson at guard. Corrington substituted for Irvin. Dr. F. C. Ma-lony, DeMolay Dad, is coaching the team this year, and expects to have a regular schedule of games running through the season.
