Members of the Trojan staff take this opportunity to thank the Board of Education who have made this publication of the L'Trojan', possible by financing this yearbook. The cost of publication, which is not covered by payment by students, is usually paid by the proceeds of the senior play. Without the Board of Educa- tionfs help, this publication would have been impossible. The staff also thanks citizens of Troy who have cooperated in the organization of the K'Trojan. To you students who have handed STAFF Editor .......... Assistant Editor ......... Business Manager ........ Sales Campaign Manager .... - Art Editor ............... - - - Assistant Art Editor -- Sports Editor ....... Organization --- Reporters .... Sponsors -- in t'snaps we especially extend our thanks. As a theme for the '40 Trojan, the writers and artists have shaped the book and polished its pages until it appears as a finished product from the potter's wheel. It is the sincere hope of the staff that the students will find these pages an accurate DOF' trayal of the places, personalities, and pleasant associations of the 1939-'40 school year-the year in which they were responsible fOI' the traditions of Troy. -- Delmar Wicks --- Jeanne Deshler ----- Scott Jaggar -,------- Bob Beeler Josephine Murphy --- Berniece Berteau ---- Delmar Wicks --- Helen Madison --- Jeanne Deshler Frances Hollaway Margaret Duncan Harriet Birt -- Miss Kirtland Mr. Stapp Page 4 Q bf Ken- 'gr f-2,1 I ROBERT A.

Before it reaches its final stage rough places have to be polished, likewise all other things have to be shaped up as the hands show on the clay vase. Reading from top to bottom in the left column, we find Ruth Vetter and Tom Jones in the best of shape when togetherg Red Hartman, Jim Jones and Cari Pierce put the finishing touches to their car to go for a ride or ?????g Paul Bohn- ing, Jr. and Scott Jaggar seem strangely interested in measuring somethingg 'KPop Ballard is busy cleaning upg Rebecca Vallette as Buckwheat of Our Gang Com- edy in a pep assembly. In left column top to bottom we find Margaret Collins, Frances I-Iollaway, Lillie Mae Axtell and Betty Lenington, who add polish to the bandg Freshmen girls shaping their social life and preparing for the next three years of work by going to a tea given by the Women's Civic Clubg Bill Duvall astride his motorcycle stops to say hellog Mr. Roles pauses from his work to pose for the shaping up of the Trojang the physics class shaping their minds in a more scien- tific trend by watching a filmg football boys smooth off the rough edges each night in scrimmage.

When looking through the enroll- ment cards you see them as a mass of names, many of which are the same. But these, like the clay mass, are molded into definite objects, before they leave the modelers hands. Jims in the first group are: Mildrex- ler, Jones, Miller, Porter, Clawson, and Hyde. Bettys in the second group are: Hiserote, McCormick, Lenington, McEl- wain, DeShazo, Jack, Abram, Gaston, Kindscher, and Morrell. In the third group are Jeans: Fuller, Gilbert, Worthing, Deshler, and Bourbon. Bobs in group four are: Brown, Hays, Earle, Beeler, Jelinek, Fuller, Mort, Mc- Call, and Biddinger. Bills in the fifth group are: Piper, Hollaway, Ballard, Thiessen, Douglas, Shunk, Howard, Duvall, Henderson, Earle, and Ratcliff. In the sixth group are Mar- jories: Ginn, Workman, Underhill, Brum- age, and Whitaker. timely' fix Q. R.

Page 16 HICJH IDEALS, CHRISTIAN CHARACTER High ideals, Christian character fused together like the emblem below are the Hi-Y and G. R. clubs. The purposes ot' the organizations are similar. High ideals such as clean living and Christian char- acter are common to both clubs. From district conferences and their summer camp, Camp Wood, the clubs form a connection with sponsors in which they learn the values ol' Christian stand- ards and strive to base their club on those principles. Their congenialty is proved by their joint meetings. By the combined efforts of the clubs the first social, the Halloween masquerade party, met with success. The Christmas Spirit was recognized by the presentation of the White Christmas Pro- gram. Something different as a social, sponsored by the Hi-Y club, was a Sweet- heart party held in observance of Valen- tine's Day. Each cluo climaxed a success- ful year with a banquet held in honor of their parents.

Before each basketball and football game at home, the 'tTrojanettc's, under the direction of Miss Turner, pre- sented a skit and .pep assembly. The public speaking class, under the direction of Miss Kirtland. presented a series of dramatic productions based on the development of drama. They included short plays illustrating Chinese, Greek, and Roman drama. Several fourth hour classes presented assembly programs. Trojan debators, coached by Mr. Hines, ranked fourth in the N, C. K. L. They are pictured at the bottom of the page. Mr. Hines, coach, Bill Duvall. Ralph Dockstader, Jr., Roy Jordan, and Bob Fuller.

OFFICERS It's orchids to the Trojanettes who directed ' organized cheering throughout the football and basketball seasons. Winning the support of the students for football and basketball teams, that lose the majority of the games they play, is usually difficult. During '39-'40, it was the duty of the pep club MISS TURNER to win enthusiasm for the sporadically winning teams, and to plan and present pep assemblies. Probably the longest remembered was the Kay Kyser program, presented November 10, preceding the Smith Center football game, fincidentally the only football game Beloit wonl planned by the Q Q , sophomores, and directed by Rebecca Vallette. 3 The Trojanettes, under the sponsorship of Miss Turner, were divided into four groups, according to their class and each had its turn to arrange and present a pep meeting. Marie Miller, Junior, was president of the fifty-three members. Page 26 1 1 1 1 ,unix af., FIRST ROW: B. Earle, G. Edgar, J. Case, B. Ballard. SECOND ROW: H. Giersch, M. Burkhead, C. Houghton, B.

Coach Ellis went to the cupboard for the ingredients of a coach's dream dish, but like old Mother Hubbard, he found the cupboard bare as a bootlegger's cellar after a raid, so he dug down into the Reserve de- partment and blasted into the 1940 cage season with Lorraine Chestnut, the only uleft-over from last year's crew. Six games slipped by before the Trojans tasted the victor's meal when they out-hustled the Min- neapolis Lions in a 22-18 free-for-all. When these teams squared-off again on the municipal court, the fouls came thick and fast with the coaches using everyone but the water boy to replace regu- lars before the Trojans eked out a 27-26 thriller for their second and last taste of the victorts dish of the season. Paul Bohning sparked the 1940 attack with 101 points while Delmar Wicks dropped 20 of his awarded charity tosses for team free throw honors. When next year's squad takes to the court, Wicks, Bohning, and Davenport will be absent from duty, but a large delegation of this season's crew will be rear'n to go. Returning first squad veterans are Williams, Adams, Ratcliff, Tice, Hyde, Chestnut, J elinek, C. Henderson, and B. Henderson. At the left is the marching band which has always been faithful in appearing on the stage at basketball games and on the field at football games, as well as helping in any way they could for the school and community.
