Rader, with Robert Jones, Instructor. The RiHe Club was not sponsored by the student body, but it was composed entirely of high school students who met weekly at the National Guard Armory. Boh Jones, instructor, was an invaluable aid to the group. A five-girl team—Katherine O’Leary, Mildred Edmunds, Peggy Sowers, Patricia Rader, and Lucille Campbell—was sent to Lovelock to the State RiHe Meet on June 21, 22 and 23. —Peggy Sowers. [301

At the beginning of the 1939 football season there was a broad smile of satisfaction on Mr. Lowry’s face, and rightly so, for this was to prove one of the most succesful football seasons of his career. Out of the 29 husky Buckaroos who reported for practice, seven lettermen were back, bigger and more determined than ever to display their might. The formidable Buckaroo team ran rough-shod over all opposition, to wind up their third consecutive year of undefeated sixman football. Two Buckaroos, Captain Fermin Lecumberry and Vernon Smith, were named on the All-State Six-Man team; Don Watts, sensational halfback, was named on the All-American Six Man Team by Stephen Kpler, originator of the sport. —Fermin Lecumberry.
