'WDEDICATIONW E, the staff of The Trojan dedi- cate this book to the impersonators of our highest ideals, Mr. England and Mr. Baldwin, who through combined leadership and cooperation have done much to for- ward the progress of Essex High School in this vicinity. Classes SENIOR HISTORY On the 31st day of August 1931, thirty boys and' girls pro- ceeded up the steps of the Essex High School with high ambitions to be successful. The class was led by Irwin Almquist. The greatest event of the year 'was the Freshmen initiation. Most of the girls joined Girl Reserve and several' took part in the G. R. Oompah. The Girl Reserve Leap Year Party was very successful. Our class 'was well represented in football, basketball, baseball, and girls' kittenball, and some of the students were brave enough to participate in glee ciub and dramatics. Two of our classmates entered the home contest. The next fall, when the girls were sporting wind-blown and ragged edged haircuts, folmd only twenty-seven of us to continue our progress through high school-. Irene Bengtson 'was chosen to lead us. We were a little more used to high school life by this time and had participants in nearly every high school activity. Three of our class received honors in academic tests and got to 'go on to Iowa City. The girls won the track meet cup. This fall 'we found the girls getting permanents and even some of the boys were trying to make their hair cu'rl. There were still twenty-seven of us to win honors for our class and Raynor Swanson 'was chosen to lead us. This was a big year for our class. We gave our Junior Play, Sonny Jane, to a full house. The biggest event of the yea'r was the Junior-Senior Banquet which was held at the Lutheran Church and was one of the prettiest banquets ever given. Four boys were on the football team, two on the basketball team, and five on the baseball team. The typing team won iirst place and the shorthnd team won second place in the district contest and both got to go on to the state contest. Six of our class parti- cipated in the home declamatory contest and three of them were winners. Two of our class were in the girls' sextet, one in the boys' quartet and several in the mixed chorus. We are now in the regime of bangs and are still upholding our record. The senior class has 100W membership in G. R. The greater percentage of the boys have participated in athletics. We had seven participants in the home declamatory contest and' two of these were second-place winners. Several members of our class are in the girls' sextette, boys' quartet, mixed chorus, and glee club. We are about to graduate after four years of successful high school life and wish to leave our record on the pages of The Trojan. x .. . .K N55 Bagan Q H. wdaen ,I Q. xi X - Cx: X 'ii X b E Q H 3 R. nm 5 jx-s.anw,.:.v K Q . ,ir i .Jr J' +3 Fngln-A E-'-- 1 J , X 'L 71 '-3 L.

CLASS PROPHECY OF 1935 ln the summer of 1960 I decided to take a trip and see what had happened to the class of 1935. When I left Essex I was riding on a train with Ivan Rennack at the throttle, and was moving along at one hundred miles per hour. I stopped at Coburg and there Coach Irwin Almquist was sending his football machine through a hand practice. When I went up town I noticed a sign by a door that lead, Attorney R. Wenstrandf' Marian Nelson was applying her skill in making other people beautiful in the City of Omaha. Irene Bengtson was taking care of the small children when I visited the children's department in a large hospital. While reading a newspaper I read an Advice Column with Thelma Nadgwick, Editor. There was an article in the paper stat- ing that Russell Johnson had written a new short story. There were some old men talking about the prize winning hog that Lester Young had taken to the Ak-Sar-Ben at Omaha. While seeking some excite- ment I had my fortune told by Harriet Lundgren. Richard Hall was proprietor of a grocery store on the way to Chicago, in a small city. While listening to a radio I heard the familiar laugh of Melvin Ossian, a comedian. I injured my finger and when it was bandaged I noticed that Louise Nelson was a nurse. Out- side of Chicago there was a modern Jersey dairy farm managed by Harold Lagerquist. While at a style show Mildred Watson was showing some new models. When I visited a modern High School, the teacher of mathe- matics was Marjorie Almquist. Geneva Carlson was advertising a new kind of face powder which was accompanied by the singing of Ella Nelson. I went to a news stand and bought a true story maga- zine and the first story, Unsuccessful Love, was written by Eldora Almquist. I chartered a plane and the pilot was Rudolph Johnson. A man with a blue uniform was policeman Claire Johnson. When I left the plane I met Raynor Swanson going to Des Moines for a di- vorce lawyer. On my way back I almost collided with Leonard Swanson, who was driving a large red oil truck. Wilbur Freed has announced himself a candidate for Supervisor and talks a square deal. From what I hear Lois Parker is doing a good job of house- keeping. Helen Mae Carlson's lifetime occupation is teaching the younger generation. With everybody at a profitable and helpful job, I can say that the Class of '35 has helped the world along at a rapid pace. vu ulvx'-v X HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS As the summer days shortened into the fall days, forty elementary school graduates from different directions around Essex applied for the privilege of obtaining higher learning in high school. During their career as freshmen they accomplished many things. Twenty-three of the freshmen took part in musical activities. Twelve of them tried their luck at dramatics, Loreen Lindburg and Clarence Pendleton succeeding in reaching the home contest. Al- though green freshmen, they accomplished a great deal. The next fall saw thirty-six of them returning to continue in lheir quest of education. The missing four went to other schools. This year eighteen tried their luck again at speaking, six succeeding in entering the home contest, showing an advance over their fresh- men year. Only fifteen took part in music activities. There were also several candidates out for football with prospects of turning out some good playing in the next two years. The sophomores also won the prize in the field day track meet, making two more points than any other high school class. They learned a few more essential facts about high school life and acted more as if they were in high school and not in the grades. The fall of 1934 brought only thirty-four back as Juniors. Quite a decrease over the membership of their freshmen class. This year they are more dignified and start to look down on some of the freshmen pranks. Fifteen people took active part in declamatory, Loreen Lindburg, Clarence Pendleton, and Betty Sue Okerlin placing first in different contests. There were a number of boys on the football team this year. Ralph Shallberg, Vernon Palm, Fred' Mur- ray, Donald Butler, Roger Hipwell, Clarence Pendleton, and' Richard Franks, all played regularly. This year they gave their class play Here Comes Charlie. Their play was a great success and it show- ed some great talent along the dramatic line. There were also three men on the first team in basketball. Their record through their three years of high school shows a great deal of improvement during the time they have been here and their goal is to improve more in their Senior year so as to equip themselves better to play the game of life. SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Thirty-six green freshmen entered the Essex High School building September 1933, beginning their high school education. To start the year off right the following officers were elected: President, Tommy McMaster, Vice President, Darwin McCall, Secretary and Treasurer, Carroll Peterson. Guyla Skalberg, Jane Johnson and Carroll Peterson repre- sented Essex at Clarinda in the declamatory contest. In the Junior High Music Contest held at Clarinda, Jane Johnson, Tilford Peterson and Max Hipwell won Superior ratings in their vocal and cornet solos. Max, also won a good rating in the Sub-District Contest. The Sophomore class has made quite a record in their first two years in high school. Jane Johnson and' Max Hipwell both 'won an Excellent rating at Clarinda for a vocal and comet solo in the music contest. Jane Johnson also won a superior rating at Peru, Nebraska. Four girls -and four boys are in glee clubs. The sopho- mores have also taken a great part in dramatics. A number of the boys have participated in the outdoor activities of the year. The class oiiieers are: President, Jane Johnson: Vice President, Carroll Peterson, Secretary and Treasurer, Marvis Parker. The sophomores have advanced greatly in the last iwvo years and we know that if they keep on improving in the next two years, as they are bound' to do, they will win many more honors for Essex High School. rkJmQ 1 5' FRESHMEN CLASS HISTORY In the year of 1934, thirty-four little, green freshmen started high school. The enrollment was so large that the freshmen have an assembly of their own with Miss Maxey as their sponsor. They also have a new locker in which to keep their books. The freshmen initiation was the main event for the fresh- men this year. These little freshmen are not so green after all because some have picked up nerve to participate in both music and dramatics and have won some honors for good old Essex High. Marlin Johnson 'won first in oratorical in the home contest, won second in the sub-district contest at Red Oak, and also received a good rating in the contest at Peru, and Phyllis Murray placed first in dramatics in the Junior High contest at Clarinda. The girls have a hundred per cent in G. R. and some of the boys are out for athletics. We feel that the freshmen have done much for Essex this year and should be given credit for the work they have accomplished. NNICKNAMES AND SAYINGS' Wilbur - Pee Wee . ..........

In early history music was brought by the harp and has progressed to the modern jazz orchestras, accompanied by the saxophone. In between these extremes we have found the best music and it has been used in our schools today. During the years of 1933-1934 we entered nine entries in the sub-district contest at Glenwood. We received three superior rat- ings, five excellents and one good. The mixed chorus was eligible for the district without competing in the sub-district. The three superior groups were entered in the district contest and received one excellent and two goods. In the M-I-N-K contest held at Peru, Nebraska, we entered a small mixed group, boys' sextet and girls' sextet. The rating was good in all of them. This year 1934-1935 at the M-I-N-K contest there were seven entries. We received a superior ranking in the girls' sextet and the so- prano solo. The bass solo received excellent and the other solos and boys' quartet, good. The sub-district contest was very good, the mixed chorus, girls' glee club and girls' sextet winning superiorg so- prano, contralto, bass, trumpet and trombone solos, boys' quartet and glee club, excellentg the tenor solo good and piano entry fair. At the district contest held at Shenandoah out of the girls' glee club, boys' glee club, mixed chorus and girls' sextet entered' we received three superiors and an excellent, the boys' glee club being the only group not eligible for the state contest. On May 2nd', the winning groups left by a Burlington bus for Iowa City where they competed on Friday. Each of the three groups placed excellent. E. H. S. is more than proud of her music groups and their directors, Miss Hiatt and Miss Maxey. OLJMQ 1 U' GC DRAMATICS In order to appear at ease before an audience, Essex each year enters a series of declamatory contests. During the last two years there have been nearly seventy taking part each year. Before the preliminary contests, each person was given at least four class lessons and one private lesson. Preliminary con- tests were held in each class. In the year 1933-34 the first place winners were Robert Wen- strand, Dorothy Lindburg and Irene Bengtson. The second place winners were Irwin Almquist, Betty Sue Okerlin and Clarence Pen- dleton. These folks helped E. H. S. to win high honors in the Little Seven Contest, and third place over all' in the Peru contest. Carroll Peterson, Jane Johnson and Guyla Skalberg were our freshmen representatives. During the year 1934-35, there were sixteen representatives in the home contest. Marlin Johnson, Loreen Lindbltrg and Clarence Pendleton won first place honors. In the Four School Contest, Loreen placed first and she ranked second in the pre-district. In the Peru contest these students and the one-act play cast aided us in tieing for high honors. The second place winners were Wilbur Freed, Betty Sue Okerlin and Irene Bengtson. These folks again won the Little Seven's highest honors for the school. Marlin Johnson, Marlin Shelstrom and Phyllis Murray represented us at Clarinda where Phyllis placed first. During the years 1933-34 the following successful plays were given - Sonny Jane Uunior Classl, Thirteen Plus' ' lSenior Classl, and Young America QContest Playl. In 1934-35 these plays were given - Here Comes Charlie Uunior Class, under the direction of Miss Maxeyj, Professor Pepp lSenior Class Playl, and Light QContest Playl. Essex is looking forward to another declamatory banner in the assembly hall. A I ' ' i GIRL RESERVES Follow, follow, follow the gleam 1 Standards unfurled 0'er all the world Follow, follow, follow the gleam Of the chalice that is the grail. As the echoes of the song die out we see a group of girls digging up a treasu out under a beautiful roof of blue and white. When Girl' Reserves hear the wor ufollow the gleam they not only think of this song but they think about each girl W has entered the circle of light and is striving to follow the path of an ideal girl. In the year 1934 the general theme of the year was climbing Jacob's Ladd while this year, 1935, the theme of an airplane from the time it begins flight to iz time it ends, was followed. A Girl Reserve Conference 'was held in the year 1934 at Omaha, Nebraska whi several of the cabinet members and advisor attended. As service last year the girls sold Forget-Me-Nots and at Christmas time th brought toys for gifts to the poor. Instead of selling Forget-Me-Nots this year 1 had people donate a certain amount. A list of those who donated and the amount wx sent to headquarters. Girl Reserve calendars were given as year books this year in which the date each program, the title and the theme of each program was given. No books we made last year. One of the first meetings of the year has been the treasure hunt held at the hor of the president. This treasure box contained a program for the meetings and wi buried in the spring of the previous year at the Gypsy Patteran. The father-daughter party and the mother-daughter party and Christm operettas were big events both years. 1 A conference 'was held at Shenandoah, Iowa, April 12, 13, and' 14, in the ye 1935. Sixteen girls attended this conference. Eldora Almquist represented Essex at the G. R. Camp at Camp Brewster Omaha, Nebraska, June 20-30, 1934. She says that if you never had the feeling true inspiration of Girl Reserves before, you will certainly get it at Camp. This year the Girl Reserves have set a record which is certainly worth me tion and that is the one hundred' per cent membership. 1 At the end of our G. R. years we have an impressive candle light service i the installation of new members and for the farewell of the seniors.

COMMERCIAL Speed! Accuracy! That has come to be th b 'easing speed and accuracy. ' Not only has America been advancing durin th l g ese ast years, for even in our vu high school we have been building up our speed and accuracy in the commercial apartment. Since this department was formed the students have each year been .king more interest in it and have striven to increase their speed and .accuracy. In t . ne ypmg class the number of students have increased so greatly that several new achines have been added until there is now a total of seventeen machines in the '0m. The -ear. Nine students have received commercial students have been working very hard for their awards this their 40 word pin in typing and Loreen Lindburg, .iriami5Oline and Hilfred Olson have received their 50 word pin. In shorthand Norma t - ' ' erson, Hilfred Olson, Lauretta Johnson and Harriett Brown have their 80 word pin d four students have their 60 word pin. Last year, 1934, the commercial department was represented in the district con- 1st held at Shenandoah, competing against six schools. The typing team was com- osed of Eldora Almquist, Marjorie Almquist and Helen Mae Carlson. Irene Bengt- ln, Marjorie Almquist, and Helen Mae Carlson were on the shorthand team. The typing team won first and the shorthand team second. Individual honors re won by Helen Mae Carlson who placed first in typing for speed and Marjorie mquist who placed third in accuracy. Winning these honors entitled both teams to enter the State contest at Des Ioines. Neither team made any high ranking in this contest. This present year, 1935, the commercial department again took part in the dis- uct contest at Shenandoah. Ten schools participated. The girls that were chosen to present the typing class were Hilfred Olson, Dorothy Burg, and Miriam Oline. The am placed third in speed and first in accuracy. The tea1n's average words was 45.92 d the average errors was 13.32. Individual honors were awarded to Hilfred Olson, 0 placed second in speed with 51.41 Words and to Dorothy Burg, who placed first in rcuracy, having an average of eight errors. ' The shorthand team, which was composed of Hilfred Olson, Norma Peterson, lid Lauaretta Johnson, placed third with an average of 96.5. Hilfred Olson won first er all having an avelage of 99.5. As the teams did not place first or second they could not participate in the rntest at Des Moines. e y-word of America, an age of in- I-IOMECOMING Homecoming Day, a new event on the Essex High School calendar, was held on November 9, 1934. It was one of the most successful events ever staged by Essex High. One hundred and eighty-iive graduates came back to review old scenes and to view the changes in the school. During the forenoon, many of the old grads came up and visited the various classes, then joined the big parade held at 11:30. It was several blocks long, consisting of the Essex Municipal Band, the old grads in a group, the classes in order from first and second to seniors, and several floats by the high school. At 1:30 in the afternoon the assembly hall' was packed with grads, students, patrons and other good friends of the school, who listened to a line program put on by the high school students. An interesting feature of this program was roll call of the various graduating classes. Only six classes out of the entire list had no representatives present. About 2:00, several strange faces were seen around town, and before the program was over, the Ashland, Nebraska team was on deck and ready for action. The largest crowd to attend an athletic event in Essex in 1934 saw Ashland put to rout in a football game beginning at 2:30. The Essex team, determined to show the old grads how it's done, ran rough shod over the Cornhusker repre- sentatives to the tune of 70-0. Miriam Oline was crowned as the T10j8h queen in an elaborate ceremony by the high school girls dur- ing the half. Another stunt was forming the letters A , for Ash- land, and T , for Trojans. At 8:00 that evening the Alumni Mixer was held at the school house. Following a good program by some of the graduates, the alumni was invited to see the display of all the class pictures in the north study room. This program concluded the E. H. S. Home- coming--a glorious success.

They started ua successful season by beating Red Oak in the first game. They continued on their winning streak until they hit Elliott. The result was a tie game. With the school backing them the Trojans went through the season winning the remaining games. With such a record in football, it didn't look possible to better the record because Essex is a small school compared to many other schools that are football opponents. When Coaches England and Baldwin assembled the squad in the Fall of 1935 there was talk of another good team. By the time of the Red Oak igame, Essex had a hard, driving, football machine. Red Oak fell before the crushing Swedes. With a strong desire to better the -record and with the town backing them, the Trojans con- tinued their drive to win every game of the year. Essex scored a total of 342 points to their opponents 6. l-l933- -ll934-- Essex 6 H Red Oak 0 Essex 13 Red Oak 0 Essex 18 Randolph 0 Essex 40 Randolph 0 Essex 7 Tabor 0 Essex '71 Westboro 0 Essex 6 Elliott 6 Essex 32 Tabor 0 Essex 6 Coin 0 Essex 26 Coin 0 Essex 44 College Springs 0 Essex 19 College Springs 0 Essex 56 Griswold 0 Essex 26 Griswold 6 Essex 24 Oakland 0 Essex 70 Ashland, Neb. 0 Essex 17 Rockport, Mo. 0 Essex 39 Oakland 0 Essex 12 Sidney 0 Essex 6 Sidney 0 The Essex Trojans had the highest scoring in the state, while their opponents only scored six points. Looking back, the year of 1934 was the best record ever made by the school. After the football season, the victories of the season were commemorated by a banquet. Toastmaster was John G. E. Carlson. The main speaker of the evening was Ossie Solem, Coach at the University of Iowa. At the end of the plrogram Coach England awarded the letters to the players. Twenty-live major letters were given and nineteen minor letters. EYE. 1. Y BASKETBALL The season of 1933-34 started out with seven lettermen re- turning. Having these experienced' men, a starting combination was not very hard to pick. This team went out and made a new record of winning eleven and losing seven games. These included the tournament games. Essex won the Little Seven Toumey, which was held at Coin. This is also a record for Essex because we have never in the history of the school won the Little Seven Tourney. Essex also was entered in the State series at Clarinda. In the tournament they won from Farragut and lost to Coin in a very hotly contested game, the score being 20 to 19. Everett Coppock was high point man with 108 points and Richard Flanks was close behind him 'with 103 points.

These were Captain Leonard Swanson, Irwin Almquist, Fred- rick Murray and Richard Franks. Mr. Baldwin had but these four lettermen to build the team around, but as you are allowed to have five men on the team, another player had to be found. This player was Vernon Palm. With this combination the Essex High School was represented on the basketball court. The team deserves much credit in bettering the high school' 're- cord by winning thirteen and losing eight games. Through winning five and losing one of the conference games they made another record, that of being the first Essex team to 'win the Little Seven Basketball Championship. Richard Franks topped the scoring for Essex with 188 points and Fred Mu-rray ran a close second with 159 points to his credit.

Mr. Baldwin gave them al'l a chance to make a reputation, and a few of them did. Norman Bergren was elected Captain, and proved his worth at second base. Irwin Almquist, pitch, and Gus Johnson, catcher, comprised a smooth, flashy, battery and with Bob Wenstrand at first, Everett Coppock at third base, Dick Franks at shortstop and Dick Hall, Wilbur Freed and Claire Johnson in the outfield, hung up seven victories out of eleven played, chaiking up 55 points to our opponents 25. The games and the scores written below are the re- sult of their hard work and we are proud of it.

The team has won 11 and have not lost a single game at the present time. They have practically cinched the Little Seven Con- ference Championship with iive 'wins and no losses, and one game re- maining to be played. They also won the Little Seven Tourney by defeating Braddyville in the first round and New Market in the iinals. This also entitled them to play in the District Tournament as the representative from Page County. This tournament will' be held at a later date. Outside of the Little Seven, the locals have defeated Corning, Stanton and Farragut. The district tourney was held at Mt. Ayr, May 10 and 11. lksex' defeated Adair 4 to 3 and Wales-Lincoln 4 to 2. This placed the team in the Hnais where they were defeated by Hancock 5 to 3. Essex is proud of her team and coach. GIRLS' ATHLETICS In the fall of 1933 the girls once more donned their kitten- ball uniforms and started practice. We were still tryin-g to uphold our perfect record and got off to a good start by winning our first game from Anderson by a score of 36 to 6. But it seemed that our record had to be broken sometime and on April 19, a cold, windy day, we 'were downed by Yorktown on their home field by a score of 12-11. We played kittenball both in the fall and in the spring, winning seven games and losing two, We won from Farragut and Shenandoah by an overwhelming score at the Old Settlers' Reunion at Shenandoah, October 14. 'Ille scores for 1933 and 1934 are: Oct. 5 Anderson 6 Essex 36 Ap1il 19 Yorktown 12 Essex 11 Oct. 18 Anderson 9 Essex 36 May 8 Yorktown 9 Essex 23 Oct. 31 Farragut 9 Essex 36 May 11 Strahan 14 Essex 15 May 18 Strahan 9 Essex 8 In 1934 we were determined to make a better record than last year and 'won our first game from Shenandoah by a score of 1 to 0. This was a hard game but not considered a regular game because their team was not a school team. It seems that we could not make a perfect record and we lost to Strahan after a hard fought game. The scores for 1934 are: Oct. 4 Shenandoah0 Essex 1 Oct. 23 Strahan 8 Essex 7 Oct. 9 Farragut 9 Essex 13 Oct. 25 Shenandoah7 Essex 14 Nov. 1 Strahan 9 Essex 18 Besides kittenball the girls are allowed to take part in the school track meet which is held in the spring. In 1933 the cup was awarded to the class of '35 and in 1934, it 'was awarded to the class of '36. The girls take part in the baseball throw, basketball tlfrow, shotput, 50-yard dash, high jump, broad jump, and relay. Last Year a new system was introduced which gave the girls a chance to earn an athletic letter. A girl could earn points throujgh the track meet events and the kittenhall team. Major letters were awarded Betty Carson, Lucille Wenstrand, Eldora Almquist, and Mary Beach Hayzlett, and minor letters were won by Lauretta John- son, Marjorie Almquist, Loreen Lindburg, and' Gladys Hirst.
