With him passes, ,E in a sense, the Benton of the last twenty-three years, for Mr. Vandersloot was Benton, and Benton was Mr. Vandersloot in a great degree. As a young man, just a youth, in fact, he came to Benton-enthusiastic, energetic, K' and fired with the ambition to make this school serve its community worthily. Benton in its earliest years was a small building, housing only one-fourth its present number of stu- dents. Fred B. Vandersloot gave unstintingly of his own reserves of strength to it, welding it-s varied entities into a unified and essentially co-operative group. He saw that small school develop into the efficient organization it is today, with its fine structure standing calm and serenei' on its hill. 1 No one who knew Mr. Vandersloot could ever doubt that with him Benton came first. Une of his final admonitions to his students and teachers was, If it's good for 4 Benton, do it. And now he is gone. A city mourns his loss, for he was a Christian gentleman, a high- principled, and home-loving citizen. A community mourns, for the South Side always found him helpful, co-operative, and loyal in community enterprises. A school mourns, for love is a rare and priceless gift, and Mr. Vandersloot loved his school. Benton will go on, perhaps to new scenes, to new problems, to a different way of life. But it will always be stronger because in its infancy it was nurtured by a great-souled V QPa.ge Two! 4.

Because no more fitting memorial could be Written than the touching article published in the Bentonian of November 4, we have included it in its entirety. On the pages that follow we have attempted to record the versatality of his interests and the widespread range of his activity. The boyish athlete, the young soldier, the earnest teacher, the automobile enthusiast, proud of his new car. ' In his maturity, Mr. Vandersloot loved to travel- the outdoors was his hobby. He was interested too in civic organizations, being the first president of the South Side Rotary Club. His heart's love was his family: to have them near him and sharing in his pleas- ' ' !1 ure was to him perfection-an exceeding great Joy. A' 'f2f,'a-,wigs aw if ' 4 5, .

Daffron, principal of Roosevelt Junior High School, was ap- pointed to fill the vacancy caused by Mr. Vandersloot's death. From years of study and teaching in Missouri, he had a fine back-ground of university training and practical experience to bring to his new work. Quietly but efficiently taking over his duties, Mr. Daffron was not long in winning the admiration and respect of the school he was chosen to serve and to administer. Student body and faculty appreciate his genuine inter- est in and encouragement of their activities as well as the friendly spirit he radiates. 1Page Tenl MK. CHARLES YY.

Quite an innovation, this coro- nation ceremony, in the open under the big lights, but lacking none of its traditional beauty and dignity. Led by the band and the drum and bugle corps, the R. O. T. C. cadets and football squad marched across the field to the north goal where against a background of greenery the throne chair had been set up. Attired in attractive sports clothes came the attendants, Misses Nee Ann Heinz, Thelma Rains, Lillian Kirk. Mary Ellen VValsh, Dixie Jean Hawken, Rose- mary Heckel, Evelyn Neal, and Maxine Edwards and Waunitha Myrick, maids of honor. Their escorts were Joe Evans, Raymond Norton, Kenneth Gasper, Sammy DeVal1, C. M. Harmon, Paul Craig, William Pritchard, Pete Herceg and Dale Buis. Following them, attended by her crown bearer, Charlene Myrick and her train bearers, Helen Rags- dale, Mary Smith, Betty Hawken, and Winifred NVyrick, came Miss Jones escorted by Charles Small- wood, In her white costume and red velvet cape she was the epi- tome of grace and loveliness. The trumpeters and pages were Billy Hawken, Norman Haynes, Irwin Thomas, Leslie Lash and Wesley Riddle. When she reached the throne, she was met and crowned by Ken- neth Brown ,student body presi- dent. Her acceptance oi' the honor and its responsibilities was ex- pressed in a brief speech which won the hearts of the record breaking crowd attending.

Springer, setting a record of six wins and two losses. l,ed by Co-captains llud Olmsted and Viilbur lileier, the Cardinals snowed under their first five opponents without a score being marked up against them, dropped a close one to North Kansas City, won a close battle from Lafayette, and then had their hopes for a second consecutive city championship crushed by Central in the season finale. Post season statistics gave the Redbirds log points to 33 for all their op- porients. In the season opener on the lienton field, the big Red eleven swept through a light but scrappy Lafayette team Z5-O. The game was all Benton from the start as fullback l'aul Boswell drove over for a touchdown early the first quarter with Meier tPage Twentyh 1938 FOOTBALL SCORES adding another in the second period. Again, in the final quarter, lloswell marked up a six-pointer, and a short pass from substitute quarterback jack Hat- treall to Olmsted ended the scoring of the Card- inals. lfnoch Shepherd and Olmsted were the mainstays of the Cards' forward wall in this tilt- a non-title affair. not counting in city standings. The coronation of the new football queen, Nellie blones, took place just preceding the game. September 25. A hard-charging Cardinal line composed of Olmsted. Shepherd, jones, Komis, Perks, l'asek, and james which opened huge holes for the backs was the big factor in the defeat of the Kansas City Southeast eleven. 38-O. The Redbirds opened fast with l'aul Miller, Boswell, and lileier scoring in quick succession during the first quarter. ln the third frame lioswell and Meier again went over for scores, and Cecil Burnett made the final touch- down. The down river boys threatened only once late in the game but Olmsted booted 60 yards to end this danger. Jimmy Murphy sparked the sec- ond team which played a great deal of the ball game. Sept. 30. Co-captain Meier stole the show in the Olathe game scoring 23 points in the 35-O rout of the Mutes. He carried the ball over in the first, sec- ond, and third quarters, and topped off this per- formance by making five consecutive conversions. He received able assistance in the ball lugging de- partment from Miller and Boswell who each turn- ed in one touchdown. Milton Thomsen, from his signal calling position, Olmsted, at end, and Shep- herd and Ed Pasek, two big tackles, were the out- standing Redbirds. Oct. 7. Meier, out with an injured knee, was replaced in the Benton lineup by Charles Martin, but even without their charging halfback the Cards drove to a 33-0 victory over C. B. H. S. Miller and Bos- well supplied the winning spark, the former going over twice and the latter scoring once. Olmsted, on a short pass from Boswell, and Murphy, sub full, took care of the rest of the point-making. Richard Jones, guard, kicked three extra points from placement. Oct. 15. Benton avenged the 41-0 licking the 1937 Falls City eleven handed them by tuning back the in- vading Tigers to the tune of 19-0. Meier again led the attack, marking up two touchdowns and set- ting the stage for the third by Miller. Benton's twelve iron men dominated the game most of the time with Shepherd and Pasek standouts in the brilliant play of the line. Oct. 21. For the first time of the season the Cards wialked off the field defeated by a strong North Kansas City team 0-3 on a last quarter field goal. The two elevens had battled on even terms for three periods when the Hornets suddenly found themselves on the Cardinal 5-yard line, after which --the fatal kick! Benton vainly took to the air to try to make up the deficiency. A last second heave by Don James clicked with Olmsted snagging it but he was dropped in his tracks on the 10-yard line as the gun went off. The work of the Red- bird ends, Olmsted and James, and tackles, Shep- herd and Pasek, featured the game. Oct. 28. Due to the death of Principal Fred E. Vander- ,WSW ,n .1 Football Squad sloot, the tilt with Trenton, which had been sched- uled for November 4, was canceled. A Enoch Shepherd, out with an infected throat, was replaced in the Benton lineup by his brother, Wilbur Shepherd, but this did not weaken the Cards who charged to a 12-0 win over Lafayette. The Redbird scoring was confined to the second frame when Boswell and Meier both drove over for six-pointers. James Komis, center, played a. great game defensively, backing up the line and sharing in nearly every tackle. Thomsen received a shoulder injury in this hard blocking battle but was able to continue in the fray. Nov. ll. In the season windup a crippled Cardinal crew bowed to a great Central team, 35-6. which vir- tually clinched the city championship for the.tribe. The lone Benton tally came late in the game with Meier breaking through a stubborn Indian de- fense. Shepherd was still out of the lineup and' Thomsen was unable to play up to par because his shoulder, injured in the Shamrock affair, was both- ering him considerably. The entire lineup of Olm- sted and James, ends, W. Shepherd and Pasek, tackles. Jones and Perks, guards, Komis, center, Thomsen, quarterback, Meier and Miller, half- backs, and Boswell, fullback, fought hard through- out the game but the big Central eleven was too much for them. Nov. 19. After the close of the football season the News- Press picked the annual all-city team. Benton was represented on this mythical eleven by Bud Olm- sted, Richard Iones, Wilbur Meier and Ed Pasek, and on the second team by Komis, James, Thom- sen and Boswell with the latter named as captain. Enoch Shepherd received honorable mention for his playing during the season. Previously, the Bentonian had named Olmsted, captain, E. Shepherd, jones, James, Meier, and Boswell on its all-city. Richard Jones and Milton Thomsen were chosen as co-captains of the 1939 Cardinal grid team by the 1938 football lettermen. jones, at guard, and Thomsen, at quarter, were outstanding Redbirds throughout the season. Benton's seconds wound up in third place in the reserve city league by winning one, losing two, and tying three games. Flowers, Teschner, W. Shepherd, Elliott, Grimm, Babb, Battreall, Norton, and Murphy were the mainstays of Coach Harry Lee's team. , VARSITY CITY LEAGUE Won Lost Tied Central . . . ............................... . 3 0 0 Benton ....... ........... .... ..... 2 1 0 Lafayette ...... ..... 0 2 1 Christian Brothers .............................. 0 2 1 RESERVE CITY LEAGUE Won Lost Tied Central ........................................ 3 1 2 Lafayette .......... .... 3 1 2 Benton ............... .... 1 2 3 Christian Brothers .... .... 0 3 3 tPage Twenty-onel Basketball Squad P VARSITY AND RESERVES Back-Bill VVith, Dewey Helsel, Gerald Long, Gerald Flowers, Fred Studer, Frank Grimm, Norman Loyd, Ronald Wihittington, Bob Gallagher.

Basketball Squad 1938-39 RECORD When the '38-'39 season opened, the Cardinals were the defending city champions-a tough as- signment for the Redbirds deprived of the scoring power of George Otten and the defense work of Floyd Reno, the mainstays of the 1937-38 team. Vaughan Linnell, Bud Olmsted and Charles Smallwood were the only remaining veterans. The Cardinals opened their season against North Kansas City, winning an overtime game. .Resuming play after the holidays, they began their defense of the city title by defeating Chris- tian Brothers Eagles. But after defeating Hia- watha team on the home court, Benton lost to Central, theipre-season favorites. I Then the Red and White team retaliated by defeating North Kansas City, for the second time. Next Lafayette Shamrocks were taken into camp to' raise Benton hopes for another city title. But defeats at the hands of Trenton and C. B. H. S. brought the Cardinal percentage below the .500 mark. Goben and Smallwood wound up their inter- scholastic careers by leading the team on to vic- tory against the Olathe Mutes. A homecoming game against Trenton ended in defeat for Coach Springer's quintet. The Cardinals won a return game with Olathe. , Bill Tworek made a last-minute, game-saving' basket as Benton defeated Central in a return game. After this, the Cardinals took an unsuc- cessful trip into Nebraska where they were de- feated by Hastings and Beatrice. In the last intra-city game of the season, Benton was defeated by Lafayette to plunge the Cardinals into a tie for third place. This defeat was followed by another, this time at the hands of William Chrisman of Independence, Missouri. The Redbirds were eliminated in their first game of the regional tournament by losing a hard fought game to the Central Indians. Bud Olmsted, Cardinal team captain, repre- sented Benton on the second team of the mythi- cal News-Press all city basketball team. Chick Martin, Charles Smallwood and Don Goben, for- wardsg Vaughan Linnell, centerg and Ed Pasek, guard, were awarded honorable mention in the selections. CAGE COMMENTS North Kansas City ........

In his more serious moments he writes part of the sports news for the Bentonian. Here's to him-for we know he will not let his play over- shadow his work. Della Paschall: Is characterized by her quiet dignity, refinement and her good taste in dress. She has taken an active part in the Girls' Pep Club and Glee Club. But she doesn't overworkg so she is a girl who really enjoys life. Robert Ramey: Is the sober faced chap who is always in the thick of the mischief. No, we wouldn't say he helps to start any, but we do wonder how come he's al- ways among those present when something goes on. Betty Lou Rivers: The youngest of a remarkable family but she has lived up to the reputation earlier established. She has shown herself to be an artist not only with the paint brush and crayon but in all her activities-including Girl Reserves, Annual Staff, P. L. S., Pep Club and Honor Society. Juanita Rose: Has enviable poise. Her casual, even nonchalant bear- ing ls the envy of those flustered classmates upset by the teachers' hard looks. 'Nita doesn't let it bother her and thus achieves a calm detached manner that gets her places. Charles Smallwood: Nooky fills his own unique place in Benton. He's done well in athletics. He has had a good time in class at the expense of his teachers. What more could a fellow want? Delores Moore: With very ami- able, sensible and energetic per- sonality Delores is a source of inspiration to her many friends for her interest inspires them to their best efforts. Evelyn Neal: Lovely is the word for Evie-a little person, dainty and graceful: a soprano voice, flexible and melodious. This young lady should be a great suc- cess in the future. Raymond Norton: A bashful lad, who seeks his pleasure where few will follow. His quiet way leads him to choose only a few for friends, but to those he is always faithful. He has a propensity for practical jokes, too. William Pritchard: One of Ben- ton's handsomest seniors. He has succeeded in combining a gaiety of spirit and a creditable scholastic record. A fine specimen of R. O. T. C. manhood, his contagious happiness is one of his pleasing qualities. Arthur Ray: Quiet and depend- able, Arthur will always be co- operative in whatever he under- takes. His willingness to help his fellow students and his keen un- derstanding, have made him well- loved among his classmates. Good luck to you. Vivian Robertson: A mid-year graduate who was extremely well- groomed and quiet, always great- ly admired because of her gra- cious ways. A prominent member of the Glee Club, sewing as vice- president in her last semester. Sarkls Sarklslan: Sarkie has long been termed a good egg by his classmates. His willingness to do his part and to assist others in doing theirs has made him well- known and well-liked by every- one. He's a power in orchestra groups! Dorothy Smith: She came to us just recently, but already she has made a place for herself in our school. Her friendly nature and the manner in which she adjusted herself to her new surroundings spell success. Marvin Morris: The Latin term, Veni, vidi, vici, might well be used to describe Marvin. He came into the life of Benton: he saw that he could be of assis- tance, and he conquered the hearts of all who knew him by his eager, helpful manner. Lavell Newey: Will always be remembered for his smile and good manners. In addition to his school work he has absorbing out- side interests which have helped to give him enviable poise and self-confidence. Bud Olmsted: A tall, slim, lik- able young fellow with a cheery hello for everyone. Very popu- lar to say the least. His efficiency in athletics is emblematic of his physique and ambitions. May he be as active in life as he has been in Benton's athletics. Thelma Rains: One of Benton's most attractive seniors with big smiling eyes. Everyone likes her for her sweet disposition and friendly way. She has been a member of the Pep Club for sev- eral years and was on the Ben- tonian Staff. Harry Reece: Such a happy per- sonality that he affects others with his vim, vigor and vitality. As a cheer leader, he certainly knew how to get co-operation on the yells. Harry has taken part in many activities, being a good dancer and having a nice voice. J lmmy Roberts: A boy who takes hold with enthusiasm and turns out every job allotted him in thoroughly satisfactory fashion. His willingness to serve is equal- ed only by the cheerful way he goes about it. We're proud of Jimmy. Warren Showalter: Likable and reliable, has managed to escape the spotlight but not the sincere admiration of his friends. They all pronounce him a real fellow: a world of fun. Mary Snyder: Known equally fav- orably for her attention to her books and her genuine love of a good time. Mary is the school girl par excellence who will carry a sunny enthusiasm into any work she takes up in later years. fThirty-nlnel I. 1555-EEL AWK vs .:.5...f - - J VV , r .X S, ? 5 3. A - 2 :sis lFortyJ Mlldred Sodowsky: To be what you seem is a rare accomplish- ment. Her sunny smile she flings broadcast, and with a cheery word greets everyone. Surely her heart is as sunny as her manner. As for the Pep Club and Glee Club-well, they couldn't do with- out her. Paul Springer: Known as Pete to many of his friends. Friendly, likable, good-looking. Too bad he is such a woman hater. He is Pop's right hand man and will be missed as Student Manager of Athletics. John Swearingen: Looks at the world scientifically. Maybe that's why he did so well on those tests. John has made the most of his opportunities here and will con- tinue to make the school proud of him, even after he leaves Benton. Eleanor Thomas: True worth can be discovered only by one's friends. Eleanor's friends will tell you that she has one of the most friendly natures in Benton. Well liked wherever she goes for she guts her best into whatever she oes. Lucille Wall: With her glorious red hair is a real beauty but of such a becomingly modest type that she doesn't proclaim her charms one bit. She's a con- scientious student. You should see her grade card-no red on it! t Verna Mae Wenda: Verna Mae is the little girl who always seems to be just bubbling over with pep and energy. Ready for a good time and for work alike. Very likable and thoroughly appreciated by us all. Success and happiness is our wish for her. Louis Williams: Is a hard-work- ing musician-in fact, it's quite a passion with him. Band and or- chestra have kept him busy dur- ing his years at Benton. His ap- plication ,to his favorite pursuit. should' mean a great deal to him after high school years. f Catherine Zuptlck: Has completed her senior year at night school in order to ,graduate with her school mates. And aren't her fel- low classmen glad that she did? Things wouldn't be quite right without Katie's smiling presence. Catherine Solonyze: Has behind ner a record for hard work that has brought results: she has made every minute count. Now we can safely prophesy a future full of the good things that adequate preparation will attract to her. Wilbur Strickland: Has sung and danced his way to fame at Ben- ton. Agile, dapper, gay and quick as a flash, he is the one we think of when we want a real perform- ance. Those same qualities have endeared him to Pop Springer on the gridiron. Charlotte Talbott: Charlotte is well-liked because of her delight- ful wit, her poised, yet girlish dignity. She has been an active member of the P. L. S. and the Honor Society. Her musical tal- ent is only one of her many as- sets: she plays the violin master- fully. Marjorie Timberlake: To her, fail- ure is a complete stranger. A girl possessing unbounded enthusiasm, a keen sense of humor, plenty of optimism and worlds of ability. Such qualities lead us to expect fine things of her. Mary Ellen Walsh: A girl whose gentle lovable character is recog- nzied by everyone. One who has been active in school affairs. Ben- ton has been proud to have Mary Ellen at the head of its drum and bugle corps. William Wheeler: Has won many friends through his quiet, sincere manner and pleasing smile. Be- ing interested in military activi- ties, he has taken great pride in his office as first lieutenant. His friendship is one to be valued by a . Feurt Wyrick: You can count on this boy to do the piece of work assigned him. He always obliges by being cheerfully helpful. He's in R. O. T. C. and the Stage Club -both give him opportunity to serve. Bill Zagrodzky: A fine, well-man- nered boy, Bill will always be re- membered at Benton as an out- standing marksman on the Rifle Team. He has certainly done his part to win numerous trophiesfor lghel display cases in the lower a s. T. C. Sparks: The boy who spends the greater part of his time danc- ing. Consequently practice makes perfect is descriptive of his ac- complishment. Quiet and well- mannered, he has won many friends. Glen Sumpter: If everybody pur- sued his own business in the quiet sincerely earnest way Glen does, well, things would surely hum around here. Although he's a lad with a purpose, you'll always find him cheerful and pleasant. Madelyn Taylor: A t t r a c t i v e, sparkling and enthusiastic has been outstanding as a member of the Girls' Glee Club, P. L. S. and Annual Staff. To the teachers and students at Benton, Madelyn represents the ideally peppy high school girl. Robert Vance: Will always be remembered for his friendliness and witty remarks. Bob has proved his worth in military af- fairs and extra-curricular work. Just how the office force will get along without him, we can't imag- llle. Hazel Webb: Being both gracious and tactful, has become a popular student in all her classes. Her willingness to help in any activity and her pleasant disposition have endeared her to classmates and teachers. Although her work is done in a quiet way, it is done ef- ficiently and quickly. Shirley Widman: Vivacious and happy, has added loads of pep to school fun. Her pleasing person- ality has helped to make the Pep Club, G. A. A. and the classroom a big success. Shirlev is one who enjoys living and likes everyone she knows. Angela Yerganian: Small, dark, full of pep and in for fun. Bril- liant in her studies and a speed demon in typing and shorthand. Shining black hair and dancing eyes that betray her happy spirit. Theodore Zebelean: Completely satisfactory in the classroom, as an R. O. T. C. officerpor as a member of the Rifle Team, Zeb carries away with him a fine rec- ord and the high regard of all who know him. fForty-onel BENTON 1 I I I . ll., 1 is JUNIORS Bill Adams Bettie Bedford Virginia Broekett Mavis Clampitt Mary Elliott lPag0' Forty-two?
