Sandifer SENIOR EVENTS OF THE YEAR The Seniors pride themselves on being one of the most progressive Senior classes that ever graduated from the Bowling Green High School. Their calendar will show that they have actually been one of the most active. They have been prominent in reviving and starting activities that have never been held before or recently. The most important of these were the Christmas and Halloween parties for the entire school, the banquet and party for the senior classes of Vandalia, Eolia, and Bowling Green. This is the first year that we have had a Christmas party, and the first time for several years we have had a Halloween party, and the first time in history that such a banquet has been held. Some of the other Senior activities were: The chili supper, Senior sunrise breakfast, the Junior-Senior sunrise breakfast. party at S. VV. Sandifer's, party at Bernice Turpin's, party at Bu-Ro Heights, trip to jefferson City and Fulton, picnics, Senior play, and Senior trip. -Y 9 1 53 as 2 ' 9 . if JQ, K 6 I A 4.

The l'lfUW WHS will lflatlcfl with young' boys and girls that had attained the age to go on this long memorable journey. .-Xs we look over the passengers on hoard our ship today we find seven of those small smiling faces that ltaye remaint-d on board our plane all twelve laps. 'l'hese are Wayne Freeman. Ralph liraustetter, jean Chappel, Cliarlotuf Kerr, Xlelba l.angford, Paul Summers. and Lucille 'l'rower. flu the first lap we were Tstet-red through fog and sunshine by our faithful pilot. Miss Laura Sanderson. Un our second take off we were steered by a new pilot, Miss Velma Kleckner Hur plane was wt-ll loaded with jolly rclinc-fl hoys and girls. The new passen- gers who boarded our ship were: Robert Lindsey, Randall Keith, Josephine jamieson, Ambrose Sclunnacln-r and Virginia XYatson. the St, Louis gift who kt-pt the passengers :unused by telling them that potatoes grew on trees. VW: were then off for another year nf knuwletlge. lt was on our third take off that we were furnished with new conveniences in our plane: nn more red chairs and huiger working hours. The efficient pilot for the Z8 passengers this year was Miss llt-len Owings. her first year as an instructor on the third lap. The passenger who discontinued his journey here to join us later was Ambrose Schuniacht-r. lt was on this lap that we had motor trouble: landed for trouble and ended tip on our first school picnic. Our fourth hop was successfully completed with Bliss Martha Blair as our pilot. 'l'he new passenger added on this flight was Robert llatrick. Ralph Branstettcr lirr-uglit his supper to school expecting In stay overtime for not making a hundrefl in spelling. lt was in this year that Mary llarrelson changed planes to continue her journey with other passengers until her ninth flight. XX'ith flliss llclen lfrt-sltwater as our pilot. Miss Louise Rose. and Mr. Price Maddox as co-pilots wc took off ou the fifth flight of our journey. lt was this year we gained altitude and knowledge, for we went upstairs amongst the boys and girls of higher learning. On our sixth flight we were fortunate to add to our crew Mr. XYayne Ballance at the l'ieginning of the flight. and Mrs. XYillard lliddlcton on tht' last half of the sixth lap to take the place of our pilot. Bliss lleleu Freshwater. To our passenger list this year we added Rerniece Turpin. Ou our seventh lap we were flying over troubled waters. for we were on the hardest lap of our journey. Our daring pilot, llr. Wayne llallancc, steered us through the thick and dense fog that we encountered this yr.-ar. On this lap we landed to celebrate October 31 with a llallowecn Party. We added S. XV. Sandifer to our passenger list this year. This our eighth lap was the longest, for wt- were going from the grade school to the high school. This year our stewardt-ss was Miss .It-ssie Sanderson. with Mr. Krueger as our pilot. After landing from this hop we spent an enjoyable evening putting on a program for a large audience and receiving our eighth ,grade diplomas. 'l'he plane was well filled on our ninth hop, for we atldt-d nine new passengers namelv: Tessie Lindsev. Betty Smith, .Xlice Taylor, Doris Tinsley. jinnuic Kerr, l.eavon Lewis. lluiiior XX'illiainson, Klary Harrelson, and Josephine Jamie- son. Our stewardess this year was Mrs. llelen .Xndcrson. and Mr. Krueger, our pilot. .Xt the end of this lap we lan-led in a field close to Buffalo Creek where we spent the day enjoying at picnic. 1' 'Jur tenth lap was begun in.Septemher 1934 with ten new passengers aboard: joan Blackwell. Illogene Burkholder, Jessie Worthington, Virginia Wilson, Melvin Chernault, john Henry Lewis, Charles Stroker, Darline Ogden, Mellie llardesty, and Helen Srote. Mr. Krueger was our pilot for half of the lap and Mr. Kerns the last half of our journey. VVith much persuasion we received two enjoyable stopovers: A hnnking party at Briar Patch and a picnic at Mineral Springs Park. With Mr. Kerns as our pilot and Miss Cobb as our stewardess we traveled on to the next to the last lap of our journey. It was on this lap that the High School High Lites inade its first appearance. One of our main stopovers was the presenting of the junior Class Playg another stopover was secured to give :1 Banquet for the plane ahead of us. The group of passengers who joined us this trip were Velma Hopkins, Richard Deters, Bernard Ebers, Lawrence Miller, Richard Schuckenbrock, Scott Straube, and Ambrose Schumacher. The twelfth lap of our journey as the end of all pleasant journeys are has been very short. This year, adding Louise Haines, Junior Harrelson, Lyle Goodman, Mellie Hardesty, and Howard Moss, we brought our passenger list up to forty-five. This year. as most Senior years are, has been full of activity. I am sure we shall always remember our many picnics. parties, sunrise breakfast, our trip to jefferson City, and all the other events we enjoyed. .-Xs we complete our journey in Bowling Green High School we shall never forget the kind cooperation that we have received from the faculty at all tunes during our four years in High School. , , XYith the fainting sound of may our spirit for her never die sounding in our ears we say good bye to our Alma Mater, Dear Old Bowling Green High. -N GH CLASS PROPHECY Ten years hence finds some of the members of the class of '37 meeting together. Nlr. l'residcnt, XVayne Freeman, is there, you might know. .-Xfter a family feud, he has been editing the Bowling Green Banner, and it has prospered in spite of the 'l'imes. Seated to his right is Richard Schuckenbrock. the present county agent of Pike County, Missouri. Next is Bernice Turpin. who has become the private secretary of Miss Cobb since our teacher has taken the ltead of the English department in one of the large colleges. Ben lfbers. the owner of a large chicken ranch in St. Clement, is seated next to his wife. the former Jessie XVorthington. She was a Home Economics teacher in Fayette so long that she can't see why it wouldn't be economical to divide an egg into three parts for the family breakfast. john Henry Lewis says the station business is booming. Martha Lou Vvhite, the Superintendent of Bowling Green Schools. says that she believes her theory of education is a good one School 'til twelve o'clock noon, twelve days a month. Strange. but her student body backs up her statement. That girl at the end of the table is none other than Louise Haines. No wonder she has a hopeful expression on her face. She thinks she niay pass typing this year after taking a post-graduate course. She finds it necessary to type the research she is doing. Seated next is Tessie Lindsey who flew over to tell tts that slte's beaten Amelia liarhart's flying records. Lucille Trower says that she's doing very well, but that she is tired of writing the Tell it to Lucy column in the l'ost. Yirginia Wilson. a Cyrcue housewife reports that joan Blackwell has become a nun after beitt disillusioned in an early love affair. Around the table to XYayne's left we see the honor guest of the evening. the famous inventor and improver of television, Ralph liranstetter. He is going to show us how his apparatus works. The first scene he focuses his machine upon is that of a flying expedition. Randall Keith. the pilot, of the airship and Illogcne Burkbolder, the petite air hostess, are flying the ship to re-discover the island of Titn-buck-too. Un board we find Commissioner- in-general-of-exploration, Richard Deters, and the former llelen llall and her farmer-husband, Bob Srote. They said they wanted something different. lllogene reports that Yirginia Xliatson was to have gone along but missed the plane. The delay was due to her inability to reduce her luggage to the required thirty-five pounds. She couldn't choose between her red formal and her riding habit. On landing. we see Leavon Lewis. a missionary to the heathen for three' years. and Iloward Moss. who is operating a Vlfhite Rose Gasoline Distributing Co. Turning from the humorous to the pathos. Ralph finds a scene in Reno. Ther-- stands Betty Smith saying. No, your llonor. it's not alimony I want. only freedom. Across the court room sits Ambrose Schumacher, who says he's planning to take up lion-taining as a little more restive occupation after married life. tioing eastward, we look in on New York. Yes, first of all, it would be an office scene. Looking past a door bearing the label The Biggest Mau on Wall Street, we see our own jimmie Kerr seated behind one of those big, roomy desks. He always did go in for big game. Always having a knack for the picturesque and unique, junior Williamson is seen in his favorite haunt, his peut house. Still in New York we see, what at first glance might be a paint factory, but instead it's Doris Tinsley sitting before her easel with more paint on her smock than on her canvas. Across the room sits Illelba Langford, still plunking out her poems on the typewriter. .X romantic little French scene is brought to us. There is head nurse. Mary Harrelson taking the pulse of her patient. Gurdon Cooper, who is the victitn of heart-throbbitis. He is now one of these actors of the romantic type which all girls fall for. He says is isn't his pulse but his heart that bothers his sleep at night. Gurdon has taken a sudden back-set. because Dr. Paul Sum- mers has told him he was able to leave the hospital. Back in the Far East, we see Mellie Hardesty on her everlasting search for old dishes. Coming back via of Egypt, our instrument finds jr. Harrelson, one of the world's most famous archaeologists. deciphering the .hieroglyphics on Egyptians tombs. He still is looking for the missing link between hieroglyphics and shorthand. In Chicago, the city noted for its great number of criminals, we see a new phase of the game. A great building has this sign, on its frontg Stroker and San- tllfCl'.,, On going inside, we see the signs: Buddy T. Stroker, Dr. and Samuel XV. Sandifer, Undertaker. Again we visit New York, and this time it's the flying field. There is'a stunningly dressed young woman. to be sure. Charlotte Kerr, leaving to be married to a Romeo she met through the Port of Lonely Hearts in the True Story Magazine. Best VVishesl Let's wander out to the wharf and there we see Lyle Goodman and Scott Straube. These two sailor lads say that their hearts are in India, and they are going to that fair land. Ralph now wheels his instrument westward, and Hollywood comes in view. Lawrence lXliller's home is one of the most expensive in the whole movie colony. He says that he made his fortune from composing the Zipper Comedies. In his comedy, houses are entered through doors which zip open. people open and close their mouths with zippers. Car doors open by zippers. On waking people open their eyes by minute zippers. Next we sec a scene in Iowa, Fort Des Moines to be exact. There Sergeant Bob Lindsey is drilling a company of green recruits and shouting, Present arms. Coming nearer home for a few ,final scenes, we see a radio scene in St. Louis. The announcer standing before the mike dressed in boots and riding pants, is none other than Melvin. Noisey Chernault. 'lie announces the VVestern Riders Breakfast Food program daily. Today a playlette is being given, and one of the girls who confessed movie aspirations is playing the leading role. that of Mickey Mouse. The actress' name. Darline Ogden. is seen in print quite often. Still in St. Louis we see a cathedral, The Chapel in the Moonlight by name, and the pastor in his long black robe.

Considered to be just what they're not. Not dignified. nor serene and good, But happy young people enjoying life as they should. Senior's digestive system works always true to form, Years of eating education has done ours little harm. liveryday our meals were served in one enormous plate, :Xnd we've swallowed subjects at an unbelievable rate. We're' not sad because we're leaving school, lNe've.been twelve long years obeying the rule. While we've worked and played together each year, Bowling Green High has become very dear. We've been right with the Bobcats in all their fame. Learned to take victory or defeat just as it came. We've been walking cameras more years than a few, And we snap little pictures of all that we do. Tn several years we'll want to know, just what we've stored in our mind's picture show. And as the pictures flash back one by one. We'll re-live the pleasures of things we have done. There will be comedies, news reels, and a main feature, Which has for its star. a well remembered teacher. All these memories we have seem futile, it's true, But often they mean more than wealth to you. Senior classes number a thousand or two, But the Class of '37, B. G., is rooting for you.

Q QA-N 6 0 GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Bowling Green Girls have completed their second consecutive season with- out a defeat. This is the first time in the history of the school that the girls have been able to establish a record of this kind. A team can be an outstanding team and win many honors, but it is difficult for a team to pass through It season even if they are superior to their opponents and not get slipped up on. However, the Bobcats of the past two years have won 50 consecutive games and have met the strongest competition in the state. This year the Bobcats won 2.3 games and lost none. lt is true that they did not play as many games as most teams do nor did they play as many games as last year's team which won 27 consecutive games. llowever. this year's team met and defeated the strongest teams in Missouri. They won their final game for the Championship of N. E. Missouri by an eight point margin, playing Glasgow in the finals. They defeated VVright City by a six point margin in the finals of the Bowling Green Tourney. They defeated the Seneca Team by a four point margin in the finals of the Seneca Tourney, and at Troy they again met the Vlfright City aggregation and defeated them by a nine point margin. The strongest competition the Bobcats had this season was pmt-irled by the Seneca Indian Maidens.

Robert Patrick tBobbiej Robert, a fast, quick thinking little guard pulled several games out of the fire by his driving in for the ball, fast dribbling and intercepting passes. He was a valuable man on either offense or defense. NVayne Freeman tllynamitel NVayne's rapid floor work, his skill at pivoting, his eye for the basket and his whole hearted efforts were qualities that baffled his opponents. Robert Lindsay tStinkeyl Robert proved to be an all-around man on the team.

PEP SQUAD This year for the first time for several years our school has had an organized l'ep Squad. Our yell leaders were Virginia Watson and Mary Haley. The Squad was organized by its yell leaders before the first Basketball game of the season so that they might be present at it. By the second game the entire group of girls had their suits which were red and black. The Thanksgiving Tournament was opened each night with a drill by the Pep Squad who had charge of the entertainment. They attended all 'of the out-of- town tournaments they could. Money for their expenses was made by having cake and candy sales. All Pep assemblies for the Bob Cats were in the hands of the Pep Squad Yell Leaders, Virginia Watson and Mary Haley. Other assemblies consisted of Pep singing, talks, and yells. -N .3 E rv ,W l'irst row I-kltbllll Lewis, Scott Strztube, Richxirtl Schuckenbroek, Richard llc-tm's. junior Xlfillizniison, l,:1wrt-noe Miller, john Xilznns, VVilmer Scheer.

ALL SCHOOL HALLOWEEN PARTY On October 30 a group of weird individuals assembled in the auditorium of the Bowling Green High School after they had found an entrance into the building. Many had searched fruitlessly for the hidden passage into the interior. Words could not describe that passage. Fortunes were told and games were played. But the greatest game was the one in which the identity of the individual was sought--not often revealed. Wayne Freeman, master of ceremonies, assisted by the presidents of the other three high school classes, gave some costume and game prizes. Each of the four classes had to give a. stunt of some kind. The freshman class read side-splitting jokes. the sophomore class had Lawrence Wright to sing, the Juniors had Isabelle Calloway to sing Shoe Shine Boy, and the dignified Seniors sang the School Song in a manner never before witnessed. The refreshments were now in order, and made their appearance in the hands of beautiful waitresses. Doughnuts were served on broomsticks. Sandwiches, soft drinks, potato chips, etc., were also served. One of the best things that happened was the crowning of the Queen of the School, Miss Patsy Sue Kleppisch. -V Patsy Sue Kleppisch Wayiie Freeman THE CROWNING OF THE QUEEN The big event of the year was the all school Halloween Party, October 30, in the auditorium of the Bowling Green High School. Games were played and enjoyed by all. The crowning of the Harvest Queen was last on the program. lt started with Mary Haley singing a solo. The buglers: Helen Maddox, Angie Lee Clare, Mary Robinson, and Charlene Harness, heralded the coming of the Queen. Margaret Anne Ball was the page. Then the crown was brought in by Clifford Sanderson, followed by VVayne Freeman. the King. The Flower Girls, Mary Lou McCune and Mary Pearl Price walked to the stage with their flowers. Following them. then the ladies and gentlemen listed: Doris Tinsley and Gordon Baxterg Velma Hopkins and Lawrence Millerg Virginia Watson and Randall Keith. Her Royal Majesty. Patsy Sue Kleppisch, the Queen. came in last. The King now had the Queen to kneel, and as he put the crown on her, he pronounced her Queen of the Harvest. The school then presented the Queen with a bouquet of roses. Supper which consisted of sandwiches. potato chips, pickles, doughnuts, served on broomsticks, and a bottle of soda pop, was then served to the Queen's party on the stage. --V -.i..4 gm Ill S XNHZR 6 f t!
