'imuzmimmmm ' SENIOR CLASS HISTORY THE LONG, LONG TRAIL Fifty-four girls and thirty-eight boys, Timid, and fresh, and canny, Started in on a long, long trail, Guided by Skillman and Henry. Our social life began with a party ln the gym and it was good, Ending promptly at nine-thirty, As all kid parties should. As Sophomores, our ranks were diminished Thirty-four had dropped from the race: Of those left, in the Glee Club and Football, Many had gained a place. The trail now began to grow harder, The lessons seemed tedious and harsh, But the way was made less tiresome With the help of Eldred and Marsh. Thirty-one girls and nineteen boys, As juniors, marched on with fervor, Starring in debate and football, Sponsored by Brown and Weisgerber. Our play was the hit of the season,, Our football boys made first team, The banquet we gave the Seniors Was beyond their wildest dream. Thirty-four have stayed to the finish So they might play in Adam and Eva That the class possessed such ability Many of us could hardly believe. With the aid of Miss Howe, our sponsor, Our annual we leave to you Each time you turn its pages Pleasant memories you will renew. As Seniors the trail is now ended With its joys and a little of grief, We salute you, Burnett and Richards, Our Captain, and Commander-in-Chief.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of l925, seventy-four innocent, but not green, boys and girls entered the Freshman Class. Their sponsors were Miss I-Ienry and Miss Trechsel. They chose for their class leaders: Mildred Ruhl, presidentg Pansy Werner, secretaryg Mary Frances Unfried, treasurerg and Mildred Ruhl, stu- dent council representative. During the course of the year, which could be considered uneventful, they had charge of two chapel programs and gave a party. As Sophomores, the road became harder to travel and several dropped from the race, leaving thirty-four girls and twenty-nine boys. Their sponsors this year were Miss Brown and Miss Snyderg the class officers were Emery Boelling, president: Ralph Jones, vice-president: Stephen Carr, treasurerg Roger Fisher, secretary and Maurice Brown, student council representative. The Sophomore party was given the Saturday preceding I-Iallowe'en, and was considered a success. They entered the Junior Class ready for hard work, choosing Martha Lmmmmmm mzzJlmmm'7zE-I fin Oni, JUNIOR BOYS Top Row, left to right-Verle Bowers, Merle Godfrey, Harry Johnson, Paul Horan, Ewalt Rindt.

They again lost a few of their old classmates, but several new members filled their places, making fifty-nine in the class. A Junior, Ralph Jones, was elected football captain and five other boys filled places on the first team, others took places in the Glee Clubs, debate teams and basketball teams. We are looking forward to our Senior year and hope to fulfill the ex- pectation of being the best class to finish Herington High School. Now that we are Juniors, we are here to get our fillg We can cut all sorts of capers, and be happy still. We love and pet our teachers till our grades go way up high, And we seldom get a scolding for the things we do on the slyg We can out talk any lawyer, if you let us have our say, Oh! let me be a Junior and be happy all the day.

' Sophomore Class History A RADIO PROGRAM This is station H. H. S. located at Herington, Kansas. Miss Winona McRae president of the famous class of '30 will now address you. fl..oud applause., Ladies and Gentlemen of the Radio Audience: We believe it fitting to start by saying that we are the most brilliant Sophomores who ever walked through the halls of H. H. S. Yet we do not try to hide the fact that we were once bright Freshmen-as bright as jade and emerald. The Sophomores are determined to do their part in the world willingly and unselfishly, ever mindful of faithfullness to the traditions of this in stitution. And now we have finished the second lap in the race toward the much coveted Senior goal. Partly true to the old adage that Sophomores mean 'wise fools' we have shown much wisdom in the last two years and only a little foolishness. As for the merits of the Sophomores, individually, we cannot begin to enumerate them: even our great eloquence falters in the face of such a task. Upholding this reputation we have two members who received first team football letters and one who is a prominent member of the debate team. Station H. H. S., Herington, Kansas, broadcasting. Our class will now sing the Herington High School song, ever mindful of what our school means to us. Whatever battles we may meet, ln courage, brawn and brain. The world will never have to call Our high school in vain. Herington High School Her praises thus we sing. Herington High School Hear the echoes ring. Thy honor shall be ever near The orange and red without a peer. As long as we can raise a cheer, Our high school, Rah! Rah! Rah!

Freshman Class History On the fifth day of September in the year 1926 at 9 A. M. there came to the Herington High School Building some seventy-six girls and boys whose faces were filled with eagerness and anticipation and whose eyes sparkled with interest. It was several days before the process of organization was completed and these boys and girls coming from the four corners of our town found themselves working as one unit, the eighth grade. During this same time a process of assimilation was going on and one morning this class found they were a part of our splendid High School system and were instructed to organize and to elect some one of their number to represent them in the High School Student Council. As a consequence our sponsors, Mrs. Frost and Miss Kunkle, called a class meeting and the following officers were elected: Student Council Representative, Max Hollister: Class President, Edith Gilman, Secretary, Florence Meyers: Pep Club, Dean Hughes, Jacob Bernhardt. During our eighth grade year we distinguished ourselves by being model students, we had football, basketball and track teams, each making an ex- cellent record and bringing honor to Our Class and when school closed in May, seventy-two of us were promoted. During our eighth gradeship we had considered ourselves a part of the High School but on the morning of September 6th, 1927, we truly became members of the School and as Freshmen entered the fold some ninety strong. We immediately organized, sending as our representative in Student Council, Ted Keever, and electing the following officers: Max Hollister, Presi- dent, Edward Eastridge, Vice-President, Dale Koepke, Secretary, Jacob Bernhardt, Cheer Leader, Jacob Bernhardt and Dean Hughes, Pep Club. Under our sponsor, Miss Harding, as Freshmen we are well represented in all the activities of the school gathering to ourselves and holding our share of the honors. During our initial year we have made our personality, scholarship and leadership so felt that we are confident the class of 1931 will ever be favor- ably looked upon by faculty and student body. Here's to the Good old Herington High, Here's to her colors, the red and the orange, Long may they wave, Ever untarnished and ever unstained. tmmmm-.zmm mmmzn-arm? - x Ti 71 Qllf Eiqhih Grade Top Row, left to right-Joe Oldson, Chester Frazier, Gordon Glover, Arthur Hartung, Merle Schroth, William Rumold, Dermont Bouner, T.

W vu 16 5 Eiqhih Grade Class Hisiory ln the early days of September, I927, very hard winds began to blow which seemed to be coming from all directions. A great calm followed and it was discovered that these winds had blown to the site of the Herington High School building an unusual group of new comers who introduced them- selves as eighth graders from the north, east and west and they were seventy- five in number. The first class meeting was held in room eight and Earle Pybus was elected president, Corrine McRae vice-president, Isabelle Hughes secretary and David Tripp member of Student Council. Kathryn Baldridge was ap- pointed Newspaper reporter for the class. Soon after the election of class officers a Good Citizen's club was or- ganized. The object of this club was to foster good citizenship based upon the high ideals of American Democracy. This club was sponsored by Mrs. Frost and the officers were T. Hughes, presidentg Arthur Hartung, vice- president and William Gilliam, secretary. For four years an organization has existed in the eighth grade important in the social life of the girls. This organization has been known as the Girl Volunteers. To foster a good spirit of friendship and develop leadership have been its motives. The present organization was organized in September, l92 7, with a membership of thirty and the election of Arlene Marshall, presi- dent, Kathryn Baldridge, vice-president, Isabelle Hughes, secretary, Corrine McRae, treasurer and Miss Kunkle, sponsor. The social events of the year have been a Christmas and Valentine party for the members, a reception held May first for the in-coming class of eighth grade girls and a Mothers Day party given May l0th in honor of the mothers of the Volunteers. The eighth grade boys coached by Mr. Crouch have taken an active part in athletics and though they have not won all the games they have had some valuable experience and placed themselves upon the map of the athletic field of the Herington High School. So ends the year. Next year it will be our part to show the eighth grad- ers where they belong and we think our past experience will insure our suc- cess.

During his high school life here and his college life at K. U. he developed a wide interest in athletics. Through his efforts and his generosity the Herington High School is now the proud poss- essor of a much needed athletic field. Dedication of The Athletic Field On September 23, 1927, the high school met in a body in the high school auditorium where they listened to Phog Allen, Athletic Director at the University of Kansas, speak to the assembly of high school students and towns- people, his theme being Fair Play in all Sports. After this, V. C. Kingsbury, president of the board of education acknowledged the gift of the athletic field presented by Ray G. Tripp to the high school and for whom the field is named. After Mr. Kingsbury's speech the assembly led by the American Legion marched to the athletic field where the remainder of the program took place. The American Legion had charge of the flag raising at the field. Ralph Wahl, presi- dent of the class of 1927, presented the flag pole. A squad of Legionaires, under Captain R. D. Sutherland, presented arms and the band played The Star Spangled Banner as the flag was being raised. Immediately after the raising of the flag the entire assembly joined in giving the flag salute. A fitting end to this program was the first football game played on the Ray G. Tripp Athletic Field and refereed by Phog Allen. THE RAY G.

As Coach Toalson called the roll for the first football practice he was greeted by eight letter man, and plenty of good materialg however, he had no little task to make a winning team from them. Our first game was with Florence, the first one to be played on the new field, and in that game our team showed that they certainly had the fight, and team spirit necessary for a winning team. That game ended with a tied score. Our next two games were hard-fought, but in both we were victorious. Then we met Abilene, we lost, but the game was later forfeited to us. The next two games were ours. Then we played Cottonwood Falls, a little hard luck came our way and the game ended in their favor. The following week we played Lindsborg for the Central Kansas League Champion- ship, and lost by only one point. The season ended on Thanksgiving day. Council Grove was our victim and for the second time in thirty years we carried away the honors. l-mmmmmmm mwmmmlm-l - x 2.1. Basket Ball l w l Top Row, left to right-G.

The basketball team this year started out on its career with five letter men, the season ended with only two of the original five. Most of the material that Coach had to work with was inexperienced, but they did some excellent work despite all the hard luck. One of the most exceptional games that l-lerington High School ever played in basketball was at Chapman. One car was stuck in the mud and did not arrive at all, and the car that did get there had only four players in it. Chapman refused to wait for the second car so the game was called with only four players for l-lerington. At the first quarter l-lerington was well in the lead, but the game ended in Chapman's favor 20-29. The basketball material for next year looks like it's going to be a real season of basketball.

DEBATE Herington High School has been very active in debate for the past several years. Last year was our first year in the Central Kansas League, and we won first place in the League. A beautiful silver cup was our reward for that achievement. This year the question for debate was a very difficult one:-Resolved that Congress should enact legislation embodying the principles of the McNary-Haugen bill as passed by the sixty-ninth congress. The affirmative of the question was upheld by Martha Koons and Maurice Brown, the negative by Florence Brown and Leo Koons. Although we did not take the cup for the League this year, the school is very proud of the showing that was made. The material for 1929 certainly looks promising. Besides the League debates there were several practice debates with smaller towns around Herington. ORHTORU Herington is indeed proud of her orators and the showing they made this year in the Kansas City Star's annual oratorical contest on the Constitution. Evelyn Oliver and Florence Brown with the valuable assistance of Miss Eldred, represented us at the county contest in Solomon. Evelyn took third place and Florence took fourth. Their subject was The Development of the Constitution. Evelyn won first place in the Central Kansas League at McPherson, April 16th.
