Five Fairfield High 19 f A 40 The QUILL Six You Knew On Friday, April 22, l938, at one-twenty in the morning, the fire alarm sounded the doom of our high school building. A rising sun showed a mass of twisted steel, bricks, and debris. Out of this catastrophe arose a new building for our high school, much finer than even the most optomistic individual had hoped for. Only one day of school was missed. On Monday, April 25, classes were resumed in rooms hastily prepared for us at Parsons College, where we finished the school year. The next three semesters of school saw the classes in various rooms about the square. Under our many handicaps there developed a fine spirit of loyalty and co-operation upon the part of the townspeople, the students, and the school administration. january IS, I940, dawned the day thousands of people in our community had looked forward to, for on that day the class rooms about the square were deserted. The student body had moved into its new home on East Broadway. From the time of the fire, many difficult problems were met with and solved by the members of the Board of Education. Too much credit cannot be given them for their task was difficult. During the period of construction of our new building the following men were members of the Board: John Ward, H. E. Gaumer, W. Early, H. A. Anderson, Dr. W. T. Webb, Eugene Fleming, and Booker Smith. The secre- tary of the Board, John Lindauer, Supt. W. G. Pence and Principal F. T. Saur. were untiring in the discharge of the additional burdens thrust upon their shoulders during this time. This group of men is deserving of the Commendation of us all.

The F. H. S, chapter has taken in nearly one hundred members in the last tive years. I A banquet was held at the Hotel Turner on May 24. l939, as an initiation for the following seniors: Albert Ford: Evelyn Kepler: Marjorie Talley: Mazie Berg: Doris Ringelspach: Geneva Schafer: and one junior, Bob Walker. Since Bah Walker was the only junior initiated he automati- cally becnme President for the first semester of the I939-l940 school year. On January 8, l94O, there were four new members elected from the senior class. They were' Aletha Buckingham. Leland Dauh. Mary Duvall. and Kenneth Larson. The final election ' it of seniors to membership will come during the latter part of May. lt has been customary to c oose more members at this election time than at any other election. The goal of the Torch Club is to encourage Scholarship. Leadership, Character, and Service. Aa to scholarship one must be in the upper fourth of the class. Scholarship, Leadership. Character. and Service are all cnnxidered when the senior clans. faculty. and faculty committee vote upon member- ship. Not more than tifleen per cent of the graduating class shall be elected. Not more than ive per cent of the junior class can he elected during the last semester of the junior year. They automati- eally become the torch carriers for the following year. Wh'I ll our leading students are not members of the Torch Cluh, certainly no one can deny ie a that the qualities stressed are those qualities that would make for a bigger. better. and fuller life.

But after a well debated hour it was decided, with the help of Mr. Prizer. our sponsor, and the Quill staffs highly intellectual minds, to organize the Penscratchers again this year. Their services are greatly appreciated by the Quill Staff. One of their tasks was keeping quiet. With one glance you can tell this would be hard for these students to do. This proved to be the Quill Staffs outstanding problem. The number of Penscratchers was increased this year to eight. From a list of juniors who macle application, the Quill Stal? selected the lucky eight and submitted this group to a faculty committee for approval. Being a Penscratcher does not assure one that he will be a member of the Quill Staff next year. but it is hoped that out of the juniors a few may become members of the Quill Staff next year.

When each edition ol the Tattler is issued, that is always thc most asked question, so we can have something to hnish at page. The purpose of the paper is not to tell on others, but to tell the student body what has been happening in school. This page. prohably the best liked, is inevitably the hrst one the students turn te. to read. The aim of theTattler Staft is to get the paper out on tirne. To carry out this aim we must have co-operation. I am sure we have had ine co-operation in putting out the Tattler this year. The staff doean't, of course, work all lhe time: they have fun as well. On April 9, we had at line party in honor of Misa Cochran who was leaving our midst. Miss Cochran was one of the teachers who gave her untiring elfortx in making the Trojan Tatller ta great success. The staff wishes to thank her for all she did while working with the staffs since the beginning of the paper. The staff also appreciates the work of Miss Winn and Miss Lindauer. who will still be here next year to help. The Tattler has grown greatly since it wax started. There has been as high as nine pages in an issue. It usually averages about six pages. The Tattler is published once a month, sometimes there is a special issue. There have been ten issues this year. The Tattler helped a lot in keeping interest in the school while we didn't have our school building. Now that we have our fine. new building we should k th' ' ' . . eep is interest going. l am sure it will continue to be a help in every way. Let's next year make rt hetter still.

The council selected students from the student body to act as monitors in the halls during the day. A student is stationed at both ends of the halls each hour of the day to serve as ushers and guides to visitors. They also decide as to what organization may have functions at a given date.

It is outstanding in the fact that its basic aims are to create and extend throughout the community con- tagious Christian character and to live up to its motto. clean speech, clean sports, and clean scholarship. Hi-Y is open to every boy in high school who wishes to join. This year they had ninety-six members. The latter part of the last school year they met and elected for the school year 1939-40 Dean Gabbert. President: Lawrence Winters. Vice President: and Leland Daub, Secretary and Treasurer. These boys met during the early part of our present school year with Mr. Pearl DeKalb, our faculty advisor, and selected the following cabinet: John McLean, Publicity Manager: Harvey Spielman. Director of Athletics: Eugene Leech, Religious Chairman: Richard Hartman, Program Director: Forest lVlcGlasson, Social Chairman: jack Gorman. Director of Clubs: and Dale Brown. Financial Chairman. The officers, cabinet, and Mr. DeKalb directed the activities of the Hi-Y throughout the school year. Our local Hi-Y sent seven delegates accompanied by Mr. DeKalb to the State Hi-Y Conference at Cedar Rapids on Friday and Saturday, December B, 9, I939. Those attending from Fairfield were Harvey Spielman, Lawrence Wuxter, Leland Daulw, Richard Hartman, Forest Mcclasson, Eugene Leech. and Paul Rail. These boys Fnrly-one Fairfield High 19 40 The Qulu. Furry-Iwi, Hi-Y attended separate discussion groups and on their return home gave reports at a regular Hi-Y meeting on the topics which they had studied. Friday evening at 7:00 o'clock they attended a banquet at the First Presbyterian Church held for the delegates. Here they heard several interesting speeches given by distinguished leaders in Y. lVl. C. A. throughout the state. Later in the evening the Cedar Rapids Hi-Y sponsored a dance for all the Hi-Y delegates and furnished the girls for the dancing. Even though many long strenuous hours were put in by the boys everyone had a good time. The Hi-Y endeavors to carry out projects to benefit the whole school and the community. With the idea in mind of carrying out these ends the Hi-Y Cabinet took charge of helping Freshmen and newcomers find their classrooms the first day of school. The Cabinet boys stationed themselves on the different corners of the square and in front of buildings where classes were held. The guides were allowed to be a little late to classes so they really enjoyed their work. The Hi-Y also helped the Girl Reserves hold a Wliite Gift service at thelVlethodist Church. Everyone in school brought an article wrapped in white and placed it at the front of the church as they marched down the aisles. The Hi-Y boys then boxed the articles and delivered them to the needy families. The Hi-Y ran a checkroom at the basketball games this year so the crowd wouldn't have to carry their wraps with them. No charge was made but the patrons were allowed to make contributions for the service . The Hi-Y carried out a vocational program to guide the boys in the selection of their life's work. Speakers were invited to speak at luncheon meetings. Dr. McConnell and Dr. Clitheroe of Parsons college each gave fine speeches which interested many boys. Several evening meetings were held at the first of the year with several good speakers. They included the Korean boy, Sam Lee. who is attending Parsons College, who talked on customs in japan and China: and Dr. Hinkhouse of the college. who talked on the war situation. The Hi-Y and Girl Reserves held a joint party in the fall for members of the two organizations only. The young people danced and played games during the evening and refreshments were served later in the evening. The Hi-Y is composed of several hobby clubs. One of thc most prominent ones is the Hi-Y Chefs. This is a group of boys who are interested in cooking. serving, and the perfection of manners. The old members met the first of the year with their faculty advisor, Miss Mainquist, and took in live new members which brought the membership up to twelve. The twelve then elected John lVlcLean, Head Chef: Leland Daub. Assistant Head Chef: and Harvey Spielman Secretary and Treasurer. The Hi-Y Chefs met every Thursday evening, where they had a good time as well as doing a little work. Part of the boys prepared the meal, part served it, and the others washed the dishes and cleaned up. 'The groups then alternated each week. The boys had some trouble getting Louis McClellan away from the radio and trying to keep John lVlcl.ean from laughing during the meal. After they entered the new building they took in eight new members bringing the membership up to twenty. The outstanding meal of the year was the Thanks- giving dinner. at which time they served turkey with all the trimmings. Jack Gorman FwfNe1ffHish 19 40 The QUILL Hi-Y really showed his talent by preparing and roasting the turkey. The boys of this club feel that they are doing something new and hope to create enough interest along this line until such a course is established for boys in high school. Another outstanding club is the Camera Club. All boys in the Hi-Y in photog- raphy met and elected john C-ossick, President, and Eugene Spry. Secretary and Treas- urer. Since they moved into the new building they have erected their own darkroom. They wanted to film a movie showing a cross section of school activities which was to be called the March of Time in Fairheld High School. They needed funds badly to go on with the production so the Hi-Y contracted to sell peanuts at the lowa State Cornhusking Meet here at Fairfield. The boys divided up in patrols with a Cabinet member at the head of each and then had a contest to see which patrol could sell the most peanuts, Richard Hartman's patrol won and were given a banquet by the Chefs as a prize. The money was then put at the disposal of the Camera Club and with the help of the local theatres they were able to carry out the production of the film. Another active club in the Hi-Y is the Hi-Y Fliers. They joined together because of their common interest in model airplanes, gliders, and gas models. They elected George Kruse, President and Milton Martin, Secretary and Treasurer. The local club is planning to hold a Southeastern Iowa indoor model airplane meet here in the high school gymnasium, where about forty dollars worth of prizes will be awarded. The Hi-Y basketball team journeyed to Ottumwa for the Y. M. C. A. gold medal tournament of April 3, 4, 5. and 6. where they carried off second place honors. The boys making the trip were Harvey Spielman, Lawrence Winter. Bill Workman, Paul Swanson, jack Tyler, John McLean, Richard Hartman, Craig Vernon, and Harold Miller, all of whom are seniors. The local team met the Shingley Grocer team of Ottumwa on Wednesday night, whom they easily disposed of with jack Tyler leading the way with seventeen points. Friday night the Hi-Y team defeated the Blakesburg five behind some fine floor play and high point shooting of Bill Wor'kinan. They returned to Ottumwa Saturday afternoon to play their semi-final game with the Pantry Chefs of Ottuniwa, whom Fairfield defeated in a very close, exciting game. Bill Workman dropped in the winning basket with less than ten seconds to play. Harvey Spielman led the scoring in this tussle with eight points. The Hi-Y quintet, although very tired, stayed Saturday night to meet the Vaughan Chevrolet team of Ottumwa for the champ- ionship. They managed to put up a very good fight against overwhelming odds, but they came out with the short end of the score. Harvey Spielman led the attack against the Packer City lads with thirteen points. The Hi-Y boys all received silver medals for runner-up of the tournament. The Hi-Y kittenball team was organized in the spring of I939. Suits were pur- chased through the help of the local merchants. The Hi-Y team met some heavy opposi- tion throughout the season in the city league and playing out of town teams, but they had a pretty successful season. They are planning to organize again this spring and play other schools in the county.

Cofoperating with the Hi-Y, a line Christmas program was given. This time it was held during the day at the Methodist Church. There was a lovely white gift offer- Farl!l'!our Fairfield High 19 40 The Q un. L Girl Reserves ing besides almost S20 which went to buy meat and oranges for each box. We had eleven nice full boxes for the needy this year. Gee! That was sure a swell pot-luck supper we had just after we moved into the new building. We weren't disappointed either! There were ten of us in all, but ten times ten couldn't have had more fun than we had that night. The meal was perfect- even the hot water tasted good. fl guess maybe we got the faucets mixed upl lj Any- way, next time we hope there will be more to enjoy the fun. As has been our tradition for the past several years, we had a lovely Trojan Ball again this year. Perhaps next year if we tried for better sportsmanship, the event would turn out better. Anyway we could try it and see. 'The Queen and her court were lovely in their various styles of seasonal formals. They certainly were to be congratulated. From this and othsr funds which we will make this year, the girls of next years' cabinet will get to go to summer conference to be held in Des Moines this year. One of the big high-lights of this lust semester was our May-Time Leap Year Banquet. This is something new and we hope that it may become an established tradi- tion in our club.

Our year has been rather hacked up and we haven't accomplished all that we would like to have, but girls of i940-4l. we are certain, that with all the wonderful conven- iences and with two such willing and capable leaders as Miss Mainquist and Miss Cal- vert, your next year will he everything and more than we planned for it to be this year.

It was decided that an application entry be sent to the state organization. The application was accepted and the girls set forth to form the constitution for the G. A. A. of Fairfield High School. A cabinet is selected by the members each year. The cabinet for this year consisted of Betty King, President: Lois Spencer, Vice President: Jeanne Gibson, Secretaryg Gwen Fallen, Treasurer: and Genevieve Wilson, Point Secretary. The goal of each member is to earn enough points for a letter, totaling 500 points or n state pin, totaling l000 points. One Hour 160 minutes of participationj entitles the participant to 4 points and with supervision and instruction l additional point will be granted. Points will not be granted for more than two hours of activity in one day or less than l,f'2 hour of activity at any one time. Nut more than lf'3 of the total participation for the year may he in one sport. Fa.ff.e1.1 High 19 40 The QUILL G. A. A. The point system works satisfactorily in the held of activities in which the girls participate which includes: apparatus, badmington, basketball, bicycling, bowling, coasting, ice skating, roller skating, golf, soccer, swimming, tennis, volleyball, etc. All participation must be done outside of school hours before it is counted. Starting the first semester of 1939 a picnic was held to give the girls a chance to meet the new members which consisted mostly of freshmen. Several such picnics were held in the parks on the outskirts of the city, A pot-luck supper was held later with the formal initiation taking place at that time. ln the foreground was a small table decorated with candles. The cabinet mem- bers surrounded the table and read the ceremony. The new members formed a semi- circle around the table. Each girl held a small white candle in her left hand while re- peating the pledge. The cabinet held their meetings on Monday evenings. Business affairs were taken care of and then the girls enjoyed an evening of games. Early in the fall a bicycle hike was enjoyed by a small group of the girls and their sponsor. Lunch was taken by the members. They proceeded south of town to Cedar Creek. This was the first bike trip experienced by the girls, but all seemed to enjoy it very much even with a few tired muscles involved. After moving into the new building they had a chance for more activities. Friday night was set for regular meetings of the entire group. Many of the girls took advantage of showing their basketball ability and entered into several games of basketball. You would certainly be surprised if you accidently ran into one of these girls on the lloor. Spring vacation saw many of the girls out hiking and bicycling. At last, after postponing for this and that, the girls sponsored their annual Spinster's Spree April IZ. Many meetings and much planning ended in a grand success for the girls. Each girl invited the boy, footed the bills, and escorted him from his home to the girls' gymnasium for an evening of fun. The gymnasium was decorated in pastel shades to carry out the theme of spring. The false ceiling was of pastel shaded twisted stream- ers. Above the ceiling just casting enough light was a row of colored lights. On the west end of the gymnasium surrounding the banking board was another row of lights consisting of all blue bulbs. Large flowers were pasted on the walls around the dance lloor. To further carry out the idea of spring, dance programs of pastel shades, showing a little girl with an umbrella in a down pour of rain, were furnished the guests. Let's make the Spinster's Spree a tradition. A round of play days were attended by the girls. On April 20, they went to Washington for the day. May 4, another was held at Parsons College. Later on, May l I, they went to Mt. Pleasant. Letter awards were given seven members at the time this went to press. Those who received letters were: Lois Spencer, Mildred Dwyer, Lottie Winfrey, Lucille Wilson Genevieve Wilson. Edith Keller, and Nellie Nelson.

The Future Teachers of America is s branch of the National Education Association. ll is made up of young people interested in teaching as a life work. Fairfield High Sclionl's Carnegie Chapter. founded in l939. is the fourth such organization in the stale. It is composed of fourteen seniors. ten juniors, and three graduate members, The club enables students to obtain enough information about the teaching profession to decide whether than is the held of work they wish to enter, and gives prospec- Fairfield High 19 40 The QUILL F.

Local members receive material from national headquarters which will help them in both their classwork and the schools in which they will teach. The F. T. A. also receives suggested programs which give the members good advice and ideas for their monthly meetings. The F. T. A. girls swept financial problems out of the way early in the year by sponsoring an all- high school dance in thc Armory on October I3. During November they sold five hundred pencils, in the schools colors, on which were printed the season's basketball schedule. Profits gaitved from these two projects carried the club through all its hnaneial needs, High lights of the first semester were the joint meetings of the Fairfield and Ottnrnvva organiza- tions of the Future Teachers of America. On November Zl, the Fairfield girls were hostesses to fifteen Ottumwa students and their critic, Miss Standing. The regular business meeting was followed by a program centering around the topic 'preaching as rt Career. Informal talks were given by the local girls on the field of teaching, teaching as a profession. teaching duties. personal qualifications, training. advantages and disadvantages, salaries. tenure, retirement and pensions, and ethics in teaching. Games and light refreshmnets ended the evening. The Otlumwn branch held a return meeting on December ll, in their high school club room. A panel discussion on The Personality of the Teacher was presented by the Ottumwa girls, and Doris Heston, Fairfield president, gave a resume-of the financial, social, and educational activities of the local group. Miss Lundien. secretary of the Y. W. C. A., gave a Personality Round-up which was of interest to all. Special music, games. and light refreshments followed the program. During the Centennial celebration the F. T. A. Club sponsored a float depicting an old-fashioned school, complete with teacher and pupils in costumes, a dunce on a high stool. and rough-hewn benches and tall desk for equipment. Several moving pictures of Estes Park, the Rocky Mountains, the Centennial parades, and the State Corn Husking Contest were shown by Mr. Raymond Pielren at a special guest-night program ou November 6. lnvitations were extended to parents of the club members and to the high school faculty to attend. The Future Teacher girls were guests of the Future Fanner boys on October ll. A hilarious scavenger hunt with such required items as faculty signatures. five sparrows, black cats fworse luckl. burned-out light bulbs, three hairs from a horse's tail. and a picture of George Washington, occupied the evening. The girls returned the courtesy on November l7. Crames with forfeits and absurd penalties were enjoyed by all. Mr. Yousling of Washington, entertained the group with several selections on his piano-aeearataa. The annual F. T. A. banquet climsxed the year on April 30, at the Hotel Turner. Members of the club, their sponsor, Miss Keck, jefferson County Superintendent of Schools. Miss Lyon, her secre- tary, Miss McCracken, Miss Cubbage, teacher of the normal training practice school, Mr. Sour and Mr. Pence enjoyed the delicious dinner. Placecards, decorations, and programs carried out the theme of spring. The graduate members of the club, Carol Mae jerrol, LeNora McCormick, and lonzt McCormick, formed the committee in charge of the banquet. The following toast program was enjoyed after the dinner.

The primary aim of the F. F. A. is to develop agricultural leadership, co-operation. and citizenship. Promotion is based on individual achievement, superior class work. development of a farming program, thriftiness, and a prac- tical demonstration of leadership are some of the steps to the higher degrees of the organization. The emblem of the Future Farmers is made of hve symbols-the owl. the plow, and the rising sun, within the crass section of an ear of corn which is snrmonnted by an American eagle. Upon the faee of the emblem appear the words Vocational Agriculture. and the teuers Y-'. F. A. The owl is symbolic of wisdom and knowledge: the plow is the symbol of labor and tillage ol' the soil: the rising sun is the emblem of progress and the new day will dawn when all farmers are the product of vocational agricultural schools. and have learned to co-operateg the cross section of the ear of corn indicates the national scope of the organization as is also the American eagle. The title of Grecnhand is conferred by the local chnpter on the aspiring hrst year students. A htting ceremony of the bays pledging themselves and reciting the Future Farmer pledge and creed is usually followed by such initiation stunts as the electric chair, the llying machine, or a similar type of treatment. Fairfield High I9 . 40 The QUILL The second year the Gt-eenhands are raised to the grade ol Future Farmers. There are certain minimum requirements, however. which must be met Lefare this advancement is awarded. The honorary degree of intra Farmer is conferred hy the stare organization during a boy's third year of highly outstanding membership. Only two per cent of the Future Farmers of the state can be elected. Congratulations this year go to Chet Heston. The Fairfield chapter ol the F. F. A. began the year's activities with a picnic, ltiltenball game. and treasure hunt honoring the new members. During the Centennial Celebration the lirst weelt of October the buys co-operated in the corn show and several members carried away a nice share of the prizes. The Future Farmers again saw action ul the lcwa State Corn I-Ittsking Contest held October BI. Their work sfarted long before tlris date. however. The boys made nineteen banghoards, placed signs, acted as special reporters. and helped in the general detail work. They sponsored tt lunch stand and cleared a neat prolit. Two inter-chapter basketball games were played at Sigourney with the Grst team losing by a scant two points, but the second team bringing home a victory. Chet Heston, Paul Gorman, Elmer, Turner. Harry MeCreedy. Bob Lawson and Don Rodgers comprised the ltrst team. The second team was made up of jim Webb. George Davison. Bernard McCormick. Dutch Coleson. Clare Nady. Gerald Andere son. and ,lunior Barrow. ln October the oliicers nf the club attended a district tneeting of the F. F. A. held in Muscatine. The boys met in groups, according to their officers. and discussed their duties, problems, and responsi- bilities. On April I2, six of the Fairlield boys took part in a district F. F. A, contest at Sigourney. The pnrlimentary procedure team. composed of Don Rodgers. Bob Burnett, Leland McCormick, Richard Mccreedy. and Robert Harryman. won second ranking in the seven chapters participating. ln this contest the bays demonstrated the abilities necessary in carrying on parlimentary procedure: for example. amending an amendment. fThcse F. F. A. members really know how to run ts meeting. They wiggle cut of tight places by laying motions on the table. or. if there is much opposition to a desired measure. there is a hasty motion for adjournment. an equally quick second lo the motion. and the opposing group is powerless until the next meeting. Harry McCrcecly placed third in the extemporaneous spealting con- test. held a tlhe same time. A Community Program lor Soil Conservation was the topic assigned to Harry. Parties, too help to hll the leisure time of the amliitionus group. They entertained the F. T. A. girls with tx scavenger hunt, and were entertained in reutrn by the girls' club. Roller-skating and dats parties also are a part of the calendar. Getting up early each morning doesn't mean anything to these farm boys, but getting up early to go to Veishea on May 9, would be a thrill For anyone. Each year the Fairheld agriculture students send at delegation with Mr. Storey to Ames to enter a series of contests. Rarely do they come hack without a pocket full of prizes and this year was nc exception. ln these events. live superior and ten excellent ratings are usually awarded. The livestock and poultry judging team, consisting of Rex Leeper, Ralph Leathers. Wilbur Mchvhirter. and Clair Hollander, won a superior rating from one hundred eighteen teams participating in the poultry event. Richard lVlcCreedy, Leland McCormiclt.

Early in the year those students who are taking their second year of Latin are invited to join the society, and if they answer successfully the questions put to them at initiation. they are taken into the society as plebians. If the student takes third or fourth year Latin, he is elevated to the rank of patrician. The high-light of the society comes at the end of the year when it bestows the Eta Sigma Phi, a national honorary award, on those students who are outstanding in fourth year Latin.

Our team was composed of Rita Peck and Philip Willson on the affirmative and Robert Farr and Paul Rail on the negative side of the question. The debate question for this year was resolved. That the government should own the railroads. Other debaters were Jane Schmidt, Hubbard Ford, Robert Nady, Jim Nlcciiffin, Barbara Northcutt, and Mildred Swanson. Faimeld Hieh I9 40 The QUILL Debate GQ On November IS, jane Schmidt, jim lVlcCitfin, Barbara Northcutt, Phil Willson, Paul Rail and Bob Farr went to Mt. Pleasant to participate in a practice debate. There were no decisions made but it provided experience for the opening debate season. On December lb, Phil Willson, Bob Nady, Paul Rail and Bob Farr attended another practice debate held in Ottumwa. An informal discussion was held December 9, in Iowa City and this was attended by Phil Willson, jane Schmidt, Bob Farr, Rita Peck. Paul Rail and Bob Nady. Sev- eral speakers went to a room. It was determined who should go to what room by the arranging of lots. Each speaker was required to make tive minute talks on topics sent out previously to the different schools. Judging was made in comparison with the others in the room. Phil Willson ranked the highest of the Fairheld debaters. The next trip was made by Bob Farr, Paul Rail, Phil Willson and Rita Peck to Davenport for the Iowa Nine, January l2th and l3th. Fairheld placed third, win- ning five debates and losing Eve. These same four individuals went to Augustana for a debate tournament on Feb- ruary 8th and 9th. Fairlield's affirmative team ranked sixth out of thirty-six schools. Both teams together ranked tenth out of the thirty-six. On the IS, I6, and l7of February, a debate tournament was held at Coe College. Phil Willson, Paul Rail, Rita Peck and Bob Farr made the trip. The tournament was enjoyed thoroughly and the Coe College boys provided great interest to at least one of the debaters who is eagerly awaiting next year's trip. The closing debate tournament of the season was held at Ottumwa February 23 and 24th. Bob Farr. Phil Willson. Paul Rail and Rita Peck represented Fairfield and we failed to place. Fairfield will start out next year with more experienced debaters and that should make for more winnings and a better year. Filly -sr-rw Fmfnezd High 19 40 The Q un. 1. is .

National Forensics The National Forensic League has not been as large this year. lr is one of our few national organizations in Fairfield High School. Entrance is gained by obtaining I5 points in either debate. declam, extem- poraneous speaking, or original oratory. These points are earned by participating in inter- scholastic forensic events in one of the four divisions mentioned above. Upon enhance to this organization, the member is also given the degree of merit. After 40 points have been obtained the degree of Honor is granted. After still more work and 60 points are obtained. the contestant is entitled to the degree of Excellence which really takes some work and is difficult to acheive. But the highest honor of all is acquired after a hard earned one hundred points and is called the degree of Distinction. This year the organization departed from its usual procedure and entered into the social life of the school by sponsoring the first dance February l3, a matinee dance. in the lunch room of our new high school. Music was provided by recordings over the public address system. The National Student Congress of the National Forensic League was held in Terre Haute, lndiana. April 29 to May 3. There were representatives from forty-three states. Fairlield High School had the honor of having Mr. Pettigrew chosen as speaker of the house of representatives. He was selected on basis of application and test covering knowledge of parlimentary procedure and current events. They extended us the courtesy of having a member of the congress and Phil Willson was selected from our local organi- zation. At this congress they organized and passed regular legislation.

Any one interested in dramatics in the high school may join but they have to be active in order to remain a member. There are four different distinctions that may be secured by earning points along dramatic lines. They are Associate, Novis, Apprentice, and Master in this order. They have put on two radio skits over the public address system which have had some performances aside from the performances for the club. One performance was at the Presbyterian Church in Fairlielcl on April 26. The club sponsors and casts one act plays. gives instruction in make up, stage craft, gives point for directing plays. declamatory readings. acting and for all forms of active participation in dramatics. The members of the club cast and presented a one-act play, The l.ord's Prayer, at the Presbyterian Church at Salina and at the mother-daughter banquet at Libertyville. The play was also presented at the Methodist Church in Fairheld. The Thespian Players. due to its late organization. has not done a lot this year.

Drum Majors and Color Guard A few years ago iwirling drum majors were added to the band and just this lnst year the color guard was also added. The drum majors march ahead of the band and twirl their batons while they are marching and while they are in formations. The Color Guard, which is composed of two American flags and the high school flag, marches ah-:ad of the drum majors while the band is on parade and stands at one end of the field while the band is putting on an exhibition. The drum majors presented twirling exhibitions during the basketball games which were enjoyed by everyone. One of the special features was the twirling of lighted batons with all the lights of the gymnasium turned out. Mr, Lowell has a class of approximately 65 beginners that are working toward sr position with the regular drum majors. This class has also presented exhibitions at diff- erent times. They practice not only with Mr. Lowell but many hours at home. The Drum Majors and Color Guard are a much needed addition and add much color and spirit to the band.

They received a Division I rating at the state marching band contest held at Washing- ton last fall. The state contest is divided into four different districts this year and the band did not have to compete in a district contest before reaching the state contest. The band is always on hand at the football games adding pep and presenting marching exhibitions between the halves of games. Some of the formations that they made were: a star, the word hello, and letters representing the visiting and home team. They made the trip to the Burlington football game at Burlington and put on a very nice performance. During the game with Ottumwa they marched with the Ottumwa band and the two bands made letters representing each school. Another very busy time for the band was during the centennial celebration. They led the Educational and Religious Parade and the parade of bands. At the first basketball game held in the new gymnasium. the band put on a march- ing exhibition just before the game started.

To be- come champions they had to win through the district and state contest. The hand does not obtain its success without any work. They practice every Mon- day, Wednesday. and Friday mornings at 7:30. Mr. Lowell gives individual lessons lo each one of the members at different times during the week. There are 60 members in the band and the different sections of thc band are well balanced. During the year the band appeared before the school body, for Southeastern Band- masters' Association, and for the public at the Musical held in the High School Audi- torium. Sixty-three JL. Faffnela High 19 ' 40 The QUILL Sixty-fnur ,wa :sas 133 Orchestra The Orchestra is an organization that puts in many hours of practicing. They meet every Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 7:30 and go through a strenuous hour of pracdce. The students take individual lessons at assigned periods under the direction of Mr. Williams. The Orchestra did not compete at the district contest at Mt. Pleasant. Due to the fact that the state music contest was held here. Feirhelcl was allowed to withhold one large group. Miss Leach, Mr. Lowell, and Mr. Williams drew cuts to determine which group would he withheld, and the Orchestra was the group that won. ln the state con- test they received a division II rating, which is the best our Orchestra has ever done in music contest competition. Wlrenever a play or some performance is to be given the Orchestra is called on to furnish music prior to the program. fThey do this willingly and add much to the evening's entertainment.

Dur- ing the year they have appeared before many of the organizations, clubs, and churches of the town. At the district contest all the groups but the string quartet received a Division I rating and at the state contest none of the groups received a Division I in regular com- petition. The cornet trio competed in the national audition event ancl received a Division I This entitles them to go on to the regional contest at St. Paul, Minnesota. These groups work very hard and I am sure their elforts are appreciated hy all who have heard them. 1-'airfield High 19 40 The QUILL r - gs, v. 5 3' Mr 133- , . iv ' 0, :ge F, -Q .5 22 9+ F J' 0 0 00 if 4 1 uf Y ' . - .

This sextst also appeared at several places before and after contest. At the Pre-State Contest at Mt. Pleasant they received a Division I rating. but they did not place at the State Contest at Fairheld. MADRIGAL This is the first year a madrigal group has been organized in Fairfield High, but it has found its place in the Vocal Music Department already. This group of six girls and five boys has proved to be a most interesting group. They met several times each week at noon to practice with Miss Leach and appeared many times before various organ- izations and clubs leaving everybody humming the tune of Climbing up the Mountain Children on the way home. By the way. Aunt Jemima helped them interpret that song. At the Pre-State Contest at Mt. Pleasant they received a Division I rating, re- ceiving a II rating at the State Contest at Fairfield. BOYS' QUARTET Everyone always enjoys listening to a boys' quartet and especially our quartet. This group of boys met with Miss Leach fourth period twice a week and did they work hard. They appeared at several places throughout the city and entertained everybody with their selections. especially Ole' Man Noah. At the Pre-State Contest at Mt. Pleasant they received a Division I rating. They did not place at the State Contest at Fairheld. GIRLS TRIO Only three girls, but how they could sing. Everybody always enjoyed listening to their lively numbers. This trio appeared at several places throughout the city and were thoroughly enjoyed at each place.

MIXED QUARTET Although this group was not organized until the middle of the year they made excellent progress. They received a. Division I rating at Mt. Pleasant.

Burlington and Ottumwa were second and third respectively in the Little Six standings. Fairfield placed four men on the All- Little Six team. Lawrence Winters, center: Floyd Lundquist, guard: Ronald Norman, half-hack: Harold lrelancl, full-back. were the ones being placed. Also Norman, lrelanol, and Winters were placed on All-State teams. I am sure the whole school and town are proud of this years' football team and its Coach. I am sure all of us seniors would like to see them repeat next year. Fair- field loses nine lettermen through graduation who will he hard to replace next year. hut the material from the second team shows promise to do this trick. s0m1!,.5:x Fairfield High 19 40 The QUILL SEPTEMBER IO, l939-FAIRFIELD 21--NEVV LONDON 0-fHereJ Fairneld opened the season with New London. Having six lettermen back from last year, the Trojans started the season off with a hang. The Trojans scored almost at will against New London. Coach Cluenkin used many substitutes in the opener. Norman and Ireland worked well in the baeklield with Winter-s and Floyd Lundquist standing out in the line. We could see by this successful start that the team would prove worth watching in future games this season. SEPTEMBER I7, I939--FAIRFIELD 28--MT. PLEASANT 0-fHereD Fairfield opened its Little Six competition with a 28 to 0 victory over Mt. Pleasant. The game was not a thriller. It was strictly the Sons of Troy all the way, with Fair- field gaining l28 yards from scrimmage to Mt. Pleasant's 40 yards. Norman's punts were a feature, while lreland's plunging was commendable. SEPTEMBER 24. 1939-FAIRFIELD 0--MUSCATINE 0-iThereD Fairfield battled Muscatine to a scoreless tie at the Muskies home town. Wliile Fairfield out-played Muscatine, they lacked the necessary punch to put the ball across the double chalk line. Fairfield gained the total of 102 yards from scrimmage to Mus- catine's BZ. The whole line was a standout with Xvinters and Arney working nicely. Norman and Gorman as well as Ireland showed up well in the hackfield. Tough luck hoys, you deserved to win, but lady luck wasn't on your side. Better luck next time. OCTOBER 6, l939-FAIRFIELD 27-WASHINGTON 0-U-lerej Fairfield defeated Washington 23 to 0 to add something more to the already suc- cessful Centennial week. Fairfield took to the air as well as the ground in this game, with Norman pitching and Gorman and Brown catching. This victory cannot easily be laid at the feet of any one player but rather to the whole team and Coach Gluenkin. It was sure a swell game with Fairfield gaining l54 yards to Washington's l l3.

It was tough going for the Hrst quarter for the Trojans, but they found their stride in the second quarter with Harold Ireland breaking the ice with a 70-yard run for a touch-down. Norman and the rest of the backlield, as well as the rest of the team, worked hard to make this victory secure and revenge the defeat of last year. Fairfield gained twenty more yards than their opponents. OCTOBER 27, 1939-FAIRFIELD 34-OTTUMWA 13-fHerej ' Oh, boy, did we beat Ottumwa. Hats off to Coach Gluenkin and his boys for the swell victory. And did it mean something? l'll say. Both Fairfield and Ottumwa were racing for the lead in the Little Six, but this victory now puts us in the lead of the Little Six. Before one of the largest crowds ever attending a game on Alumni Field Fairfield come out of the battle a winner to the tune of 34 to I3. With Brown, Norman and Gorman and the rest of the team leading the Trojans to victory. Fairfield gained the amazing total of 260 yards from scrimmage to Ottumwa's I78. OCTOBER 3l, I939-FAIRFIELD 6-BURLINGTON 6-fTliereJ Fairneld and Burlington battled to a 6 to 6 tie at the Grayhound city. Fairfield scored in the first period but never again did they find the trail to the touch-down path. Burlington scored in the second half to even things up, but they also missed the necessary extra point. Fairheld gained 80 yards from scrimmage to Burlington's l22. Harold Ireland played a whale of a defensive and offensive game. Brissey was the star for Burlington. NOVEMBER 4, I939-FAIRFIELD 32M-CEDAR RAPIDS 0-fThereJ Fairfield again downed Cedar Rapids for the second year straight by the score of 32 to 0. with the second team playing a great deal of the game. McKinley was no match for us in their own city. Fairheld, using many lateral and forward passes, outsmarted cLcnlJ rglll Fairfield High 19 40 The QUIL L and outplayed Cedar Rapids. Buss Russell caught his only pass of the season but was called haclc because of oltside. Ha, Ha. Burr, was it ever cold up there. Fairfield gained I30 yards from scrimmage to Cedar Rapids' 27, NOVEMBER IO, 1939-FAIRFIELD 42-FT. MADISON 0-fTl1ereJ Fairfield needing just this win to clinch the Little Six football crown, went to Ft. Madison with only one idea and that was to win the Little Six title. They accomplished their purpose right off the bat by scoring in the first few minutes of play and never stopping until the final gun. Ireland led the scoring with two touchdowns and two extra points. The whole team played top ball this game as well as the whole season. Fairfield gained a total of I65 yards to Ft. Madisons' I l9. LIGHTWEIGHTS The second team was coached by John Hoerner. The team is largely composed of freshmen and sophomores. These boys worked hard and played several games, They defeated Mt. Pleasanfs second team twice. But they were beaten by Ottumwa, 6 to 0. Richland also won over them. Many of these boys show promise to make next years' team and fill the graduating senior's shoes. Lighlweights TOP ROW-X'ice. Polorll, Caughlan. Glaltlelder, Abbey, Frey.

This board raises the necessary funds to finance the Bible department. For nearly 20 years Bible courses have been electives in the Fairfield High School, a somewhat unique feature in various ways. The first requirement has been that the courses be on a parity with other school work done. and the second is that a specially qualified teacher be secured, and those interested have gladly fumished funds for this work. This is perhaps the most conspicuous example of successful Bible teaching to be found in lowa, and here is said to be the first co-operative effort between the schools and a contributing constituency which has been satisfactory and workable. These are believed to be the first regularly credited courses in Bible study to be listed in a public high school. Fairtield's interest in high school Bible instruction began in September, l9l8, when a meeting was held to organize such work. It was begun under the direction of Dr. V. H. Vartanian, teacher in Parsons College, the first classes being scheduled outside of regular school hours. ln the fall of l920. the Board of Education made Bible work a regular elective in each of the three high school courses and in the regular schedules, the teacher being a regular member of the faculty. This arrangement has continued until the present time. Because Fairfield citizens. through their Bible Board. desire to contribute to the expense of the Bible courses. they raise a fund annually for this purpose. The teacher devotes a part of his time to other school activities, as directed, and a portion of his support accordingly is met by the school board. Following Dr. Vartanian's extra curricular work, Bible study was under the following regular high school instructors: T. F. Campbell. A. B .,........ ...,, l 920-Zl VV. R. King, A. B ...,,..,.,,.,.... ,,.,. l 921-29 Judson D. Blakslee, A. B .,,,... ,.,,, I 929-34 Pearle M. DeKalb, A. B. ,.,.,,,.., ,..,., , ..,,..,,,,,,,,, l 934- All of the instructors have been selected after careful investigation of teaching ability, as well as thorough grounding in Bible. Because of their very liberal support of this work, three persons, Dr. R. A. Montgomery, A. K. Harper, and C. W. Wade, have been designated Founding Members. There is a board of directors which co- operates with the school authorities in the selection of teachers and raises the financial support. The president of the school board and superintendent of schools, as well as the president of the ministerial association, are members of this board ex-officio. This community organization has always worked harmoniously with the school authorities and has provided an additional bond of common interest between school and community. The officers are: President, Miss Mary L. Steverg Vice President, Mrs. E.. A. Davies: Secretary, Mrs. Dillon Turney: Treasurer, R. H. Spence. E.. G. Fligg is Finance Chairman. Although an elective, through all the years the Bible courses have had a good enrollment and the teaching standards the same as in other school work. Much of the time, nearly one-tifth of the students in F. H. S. have been enrolled in some of the Bible classes. Distinction is made between Bible teaching and religious instruction, the latter being carefully avoided. Familiarity with the contents of the Bible, without sectarian bias, is the constant aim. The hundreds of pupils who have talten the course bear testi- mony to the faithfulness with which these aims have been followed. Fairfield High 19 40 The QUIL1.

It Irs. F. P, Ford Cwisif This organization helps the high school students more than many people realize. This year has been the busiest one the Auxiliary has had for a long time. The Auxiliary holds its meetings in the music rooms at the high school once a month. Usually either lVlr. Lowell. Mr. hvilliams, or lVliss Leach present some of their music students at the close of the business meeting. Probably the largest project this year was the making of the Girls' Glee Club uni- forms. These uniforms consisted of black velvet basques and white flannel skirts. It was decided to have the Auxiliary retain ownership of these in years to come. If you had happened by the Home Economics department the Erst of the year you would have seen many of the ladies busy measuring, cutting out, sewing and fitting the uniforms. l do not think that we can thank them enough for their untiring efforts to make our Glee Club appear nicer. Among the other things the Auxiliary promoted was the light bulb sale and the Penny Carnival. From the proceeds of these two projects, ties were purchased for the Orchestra, six new cello cases ,and thirteen additional white mess jackets purchased for the Boys' C-lee Club. Music awards are based upon points earned by the individual. Points are given for belonging to different groups making appearances before different organizations, clubs. winning at a contest. technique and loyalty. These points may vary slightly with the different musical organizations. A deduction of points is made for failure to attend rehearsals, appearances, etc. All but seniors are allowed to hold their awards but one year at which time they must turn them in. Seniors are permitted to keep their awards. We cannot express how fully we appreciate the work of these mothers and we do hope they continue to do their Bne work in the future.

L Ninety-fou I ' Av V9 97 Q The Hoosier Schoolmaster Fairfield High School presented the first play in the new high school auditorium, April 23, 1940. It was appropriate that the initial performance in the auditorium should be an all-school play with characters drawn from all four classes, because of this, no one organization or class presented the first play in the auditorium but a representative cast from the whole school. Although this was a rather heavy play the cast performed splendidly to a capacity audience. The stage scenery was made by the cast and they had a lot of fun making the scenery as well as presenting the play. One of the rather unusual characters that made the play interesting was Mr. Pear- son, an old soldier, played by Kenneth Boyce, who managed to give the appearance of being one-legged by wearing a peg leg and strapping his own leg back. Eugene Emanuel in the role of the schoolmaster gave a splendid performance, as did Ole Jack Means, school trustee played by Eugene Spry. Another interesting character was Mrs. Thomp- son, played by Bernice Murphy, who ably portrayed the role of an elderly blind lady. ln fact, the whole cast gave a top-notch performance. r Fairfield High 19 40 The Q U I L L The Hoosier Schoolmastern .Zap The cast was as follows: Ole Jack Means, school trustee ,.....

The three plays were: a fan- tasy, Figureheads, which is the story of a prince who disguises as a hsherman and wins his lady fairy the second is a comedy. Nevertheless, which provided great amuse- ment and good entertainmentg the third was a satirical comedy. Sham, it is the story of two people, Charles and Clara, who apparently live high and in luxury, but are really a sham. Everything they have is an imitiation of the real thing. And one evening they come home to find a hurglar there who is very discriminating and takes only the highest grade things from the hest homes. They beg him to take something of theirs or people will know they did not have anything of value in their home. The outcome finds things a little reversed from the usual burglar situation.

W e ber One hundred on One hundred two Fairfield High 19 40 Senior Play 'ui W ' 'sea vrwa . G., 'ii ss A Doll's House, presented Friday evening, May I7, at the high school auditorium, by the senior class, is perhaps, the most widely known of the many hne plays written by the noted Norwegian playright. Henrik lbsen. A Doll's House is a problem play which relates to the theme of the emancipation of women. It is a story concerning the Helmers. Torvald Helmer. the husband ot Nora. is a selhsh, self-centered individual who regards Nora as nothing of real importance. Nora's determination to make herself capable of responsibility is finally achieved when she real- izes just how self-centered her husband is. The action lakes place in the living room of the Helmet home, start- ing on Christmas eve and continues during the next two days. The time is the present. The play presented many opportunities for excellent acting, which were grasped by the players. making this a delightful and entertaining play.

The school in as good a condition, when the seniors come back to visit, as it now is. The Trojan Tailler still being issued in years to come. The pond in back of the school house turned into a good outdoor pool. Grass, trees, and Howers planted to beautify the yard and cement parking places. Another champion football team and champion basketball and track squad. The upperclassMEN date girls in their class. More all-school plays and one-act plays. The high school faculty with all new cars. More polite students in the school. Miss Eing dressed up more often. Like the day when she went to Cochran's wed- mg. Miss Peterson act always like she did in French. Chet Arney and Gin Wilson still around. Unk Winter come back and coach at F. H. 5. Bill Dwyer make a successful nurse. Organizations have successful years to come. The Pep Club sponsor banquets as nice as in the past. Miss Winn as willing to help as she has been. John Kyle still around our school for years to come. Good scholastic showings in our school. The glee club, band, orchestra, small instrumentals, places. Miss Coffman still loving her freshmen. Jackie Rundquist decide who she really likes. Marion Summerville go with a junior boy. ,lohn Gossick get his own lessons for a change. Mr. Pfizer teach his pupils how to spell his name. The school install a fountain service in the lunch room. Miss Margaret Clinkinbeard taking Miss Cochran's place on the faculty. The day when tests are dispensed with and students won't have to Horam. Leland Daub grow up and quit running around barefooted. Mr. Brolliar still on the gate at the basketball games. Betty King return and teach Physical Education. Harry Frey learn to dance. Mary Leech act like a girl should. The football stadium finished by next fall. Harold Ireland enlarge his view. Hoerner improve his stance in golf. Miss Wright learn to drive a car so Bill won't have to bring her out in the mornings. small vocals. soloists going Ff1ifHeld High I9 40 The QU11. 1. Things We Canit Forget QBut perhaps we'd like toj 'UEIKGU' Last winter during the cold snap when it was so cold over the old Ledger building that Prizer's hor water pipes froze solid. That Sherman Watson just couldn't resist heaving that brick through the Ledger window. The day it rained so hard that the students in Pearl DeKalb's room almost drowned. That Alice Jean McCormick said in the lunch room one noon that her lipstick had been tested twice. How about it Spencer, are you still Careless? Another three days of music contest. Running all over town to sit in a class for an hour. The awful smell that you had to carry to class all day after an hour of gym in the armory. Those Confucious sayings. The boys in biology sttill carry those dreadful snakes in the halls. Don't you think so Miss King. When we had to wade the mud in front of the school in bad weather. You know how it was Gwen. We had a faculty member that was taken to be one of the students in a chapel. Do you really think so, too. Those couples that are continually going around school holding hands. ll The day the plaster fell from the ceiling in the Public Library. At least they took a iint. Do the sparrows actually like Mr. Petligrew's hat? Mr. Coots lost his patience in first period arithmetic. All the little catty remarks published in the Tattler. How last years' Freshmen have changed so much. Not for two good friends to try to skip school at the same time. Even if they do like to dance so well. The boys have to have their hair cut so short in the Spring. That they were a little slow about getting the tennis courts into shape so the seniors might play a few games. Mr. Saur's talks about all those train trips he took. Mr. Prizer's urgent appeal to hurry with the Quill subscriptions. The hours of typewriter keys staring the seniors in the face for this and that. The last few days of school for the seniors. Did they expect us to stay all day to hnish the economics test? The sounding of the bell so some one might talk over the public address system. That Miss Lindauer left her rubbers in Venice. The senior play cast had to be changed at the last minute. This is the last year for the seniors. We won't forget though.
