However, I congratulate you as a class on the fine school attitude and excellent school spirit you have manifested in the short school year in which I have learned to know you in one way or another. You have contributed your share as a group or class to the good standing of the Independence High School. From an adminis- tration standpoint, therefore, I want to commend the creditable accounting you have given of yourselves, especially during the time I have known of you in my official capacity in the Independ- ence schools. I wish to congratulate you also on this achievement-the completion of your high school course. You know, no doubt, that very many persons who enter the grade or elementary schools never finish the high school wo1'k. Some must drop out of school very early on account of economic diflicultiesg others leave school prematurely because of indifference, not knowing the necessity and value of education for use in later life. Very likely when you looked ahead it seemed as though it would require a long time to complete your course. It does not seem nearly so long when the years have gone. In fact, I venture, you are wondering now where the years have gone. I am guessing, too, that you wondered occasionally if it would pay after all to make the effort. You may have said sometimes. it looks like a tedious and difhcult road ahead. Well, it is true, that it has required a lot of time, energy, endurance, and old- fashioned grit to complete the job. But you will remember that anything that is worth while requires hard Work and real effort. You know also that it is the finish that counts. There are many who start in the race but never run to the end and therefore never receive the prize. You have reached an important goal in the completion of your high school work. Practically all I have said to you has been in retrospect and now just a word in prospect. You possess through your efforts thus far an equipment that should be fundamental and helpful to yet higher achievements. This may be truly the commencement of a larger and fuller life for every member of the class of 1927 and this is my sincere wish for you. --J. H. Clement, Superintendent.

Mr. Stevens possesses that rare quality of being popular with students, patrons, and teachers and yet retaining the respect and confidence of all. We like him because he is one of us . Page 15 To The Seniors I congratulate you on having completed the task you under- took when you entered high school, namely, to have done the work required for graduation Irom high school and for which you are soon to receive official recognition. You are a part of that small percent who have the will to stick to this job of high school until it is finished. Many are started, but few are finished. The task of the school today is to give opportunity for boys and girls to learn to liveg in fact, it is life itself. It is the hope of the writer that each of you has availed himself of every occasion to de- velop into the best citizen possible. You have been a citizen of a school, learning to care for yourself, to associate with others and recognize their rights, to equip yourself with some facts that will aid you in making a living, and that is life anyway. The success you have had in school may be in a measure indicative of the success you will have wherever you may continue your living. School is life, and life is a school. If we would go forward, we must be continually learning. As seniors you have been leaders in the life of the school. The habits and ideals that you have are those that most often make the school the institution that it is. So may you have made habits and developed ideals which shall make whatever institution or community you live in better for your having practiced living in high school. The institutions, business, and industries of the world today demand that individuals shall have ability and that they shall have training in schools. Not to finish at least the high school of today closes automatically many doors of employment. Mayhap the additional facts you would have learned would not pertain di- rectly to the place you seek, but the fact that you have had the stamina to stay with his job of high school work until finished sets a stamp of approval which is not overlooked. You have, therefore, not only earned congratulations but you have as well written your own letter of recommendation. In the short time it has been my pleasure to be associated with you I have not had an opportunity to make intimate friends of all. True friendship is not made in a moment but is the product of years of acquaintance. I have, however, come to know you all sc well that I trust the years will ripen our acquaintance into true friendship and that it may be my privilege in the years ahead to be of service to you as becomes a true friend. -E. R. Stevens, Principal. Page 16 Departments What shall I do to be known And make the age to come my own ? Thus question all of us. Never is the thought more prominent than when we begin our high school course and first select our own activities. Here Indepen- dence High School gives the greatest possible choice, oiering seven groups of subjects: English, Mathematics, Social and Physical Science, Foreign Lan- guage, Vocational and Fine Arts, and Physical Education. The English groups includes Debate, Dramatics, Journalism, and English 1-6, covering grammar, composition, and the classics. In Mathematics there are offered three terms each of Algebra and Geometry and two terms of Commercial Arithmetic. Social Science includes Ancient and Medieval, Modern, and American History, Civics, and Economics. Under Physical Science come Biology, Physiology, Chemistry, Physics, and Psychology. Four years of Latin, including Ceasar, Cicero and Virgil, one year of French and two of Spanish are offered under Foreign Language. Vocational and Fine Arts cover Business, Mechanical Arts, Home Econom- ics, Art and Design, and Music. Each of these also is subdivided. Under Bus- iness: Commercial Geography, Penmanship, Commercial Law, two years of Book- keeping, Shorthand, Typing and a half year of Office Training. Under Mechan- ical Arts: four years each of Woodwork, Machine Shop, three years of Print- ing and two of Mechanical Drawing. Under Home Economics: Sewing and cooking. There are four years' of Art offered, while Music includes three years each of Chorus, Band and Orchestra. Physical Education includes three years of gymnasium Work, football, bas- ketball, track, and tennis. Hygiene, Geography, and Penrnanship are also available. With such variety of selection possible we are able to secure subjects best suited to our particular interests, talents and probable futures. In the last three years, one hundred ninety-five students have graduated from General Coursey one hundred forty from Collegiate, fifty-seven from Nor- mal, and thirty-six from Business. Last year two newer courses, Secreta1'ial and Accounting, were listed among those from which students graduated. Independence High School offers practical experience as well as theoreti- cal problems in all branches of its activities. Home Economics students, while preparing themselves for future successful housewives, try various experiments on submissive families, Art students are often employed on school and. commu- nity projectsg the Printing Department publishes The Independence Student and the Orange and Black, while the Journalism classes struggle to prepare the Student for publication. Thus, while training themselves for future work, projects of community importance are carried through. Training in school loyalty, habit of successful accomplishments, quality c effort, vigor of attack, tenacity of purpose which leads to complete and thorough mastery of worth-while tasks are the chief possible developments of the h g school years but, What we are to be we are now becoming . The habit of achievement leads to success, as shown by I. H. S. graduates doing creditable work in nearly all lines of business. School loyalty leads to national loyalty and good citizenship. Since the best prophet of the future is the past , what is not possible to the student who has selected his course from the I. H. S. curriculm? -Doris K. Peck Page 17 To th6,M6mb6TS of the Senior Class of 1927 Today is the day I have been looking for. All my life has been spent in preparation for it. Yesterday and tomorrow are far away nothings-the one a faint memory, the other a vague promise. But this is my day. It offers all that God has to give. And I'm a laggard or a coward if I fail to make the most of it. -Glen Buck. The Board of Education extends congratulations and good wishes to each and every one of you for your achievement in completing the course of study in our high school. We, as Well as your parents and personal friends, look forward with pleasure and confidence to the part you will take in life's activities. More than ever you will find that success depends upon individual effort, and as you are now about to take your places in the affairs of life, we urge upon you to hold fast to the ideals of good citizenship, integrity of purpose, and sincerity of effort which have been constantly upheld in our school system. If you will hold fast to these ideals, your success in life is assured and the result of your efforts will not only be a credit to yourselves, but also be a source of satisfaction to those who have contributed to the support of our schools. All that the people have done in your behalf in making it possible for you to attain this goal has been done unselfishly, and with a true public' spirit. Now that you have completed the course of study, your achievement is their reward. The sentiment expressed in the following verse by an unknown author seems pertinent at this time, in- The Never Wavering Few. The easy roads are crowded, And the level roads are jammed, The pleasant little rivers With the drifting folks are crammed. But off yonder where it's rocky, Where you get a better view, You will find the ranks are thinning And the travelers are few. Where the going's smooth and pleasant, You will always find the throng, For the many, more's the pity, Seem to like to drift along. But the steps that call for courage, And the task that's hard to do, In the end result in glory For the never wavering few. With every good wish for your sucess in the future, I am most sincerely yours, Edwin Potts, President, Board of Education. Page 18 The Faculty We, the members of the Class of 1927, wish to express at least a part of the gratitude which we hold for the members of our high school faculty. The standard of the I. H. S. faculty is very high. Nowhere, we feel certain, is there a more far-sighted and loyal group of teachers cooperating for the success of the students. Each teach- ervin each department is giving his best and is sharing with his classes his own joy in learning. Each is sea1'ching for a chance to give encouragement and sympathy. It is largely due to the unfailing interest which our faculty has in every student, and its loyalty to the school that the Inde- pergdence High School holds so high a scholastic standard, a stand- ard which makes it one of the outstanding educational institutions of its kind in the state. The traditions of our school, its victories of the past, its spirit of progress, its aim for the future, are all carefully preserv- ed with understanding sympathy by our faculty. This spirit in- haled from school life wields a great influence over the student and fills him with the desire to win fame for his Alma Mater. Therefore, we, the graduating class of the Independence High School wish each teacher of the faculty of Nees Hall and our Junior High School the best of success. May each dream, each hope for the students and the- school, find fullfillment. May every teacher light many candles which, in later years, will shine back to cheer him. ig. T F I -' i Page 19 L. L.

This contest was held to determine the most popular and most beautiful girl in our school and to increase the sale of the Orange and Black yearbooks, After much thought on the part of the Annual Stalf a plan was made for carrying this event out. It was as follows: Each class including the Senior, Junior, Sophomore, and Junior High, was to elect its class queen. In this way there would be four candidates in the race for the place of honor. With every full price paid on an annual 100 votes would be given and with half price paid only 50 votes would be given. At the end of the two weeks campaign the class queen receiving the most votes would be declared the Queen of the Orange and Black. .2 . .,,':11:.i!Qffi'E'jf---zu.: Now you know how this contest was carried ong but the most interesting part is yet to come. The week before the contest started the classes followed the instructions and chose their class queens. The four young ladies were, Senior, France-s Keeneyg Junior, Ruth Simmonsg Sophomore, Faye Stone, and Junior High, Beth Keller. After the elections each queen was introduced in assembly by a mem- ber of her class, who gave a short, peppy, campaign speech. This aroused much interest in the contest. The four girls were the best representatives of the two qualifications, beauty and popularity, that could be found in our school and it was evident that the coming race would be close and exciting. The contest started on Monday and during the next two weeks the annual staff members and class officers were kept busy selling the yearbooks. At the end of the two busy weeks the ballots were counted while all we1'e Waiting breathlessly to hear the results. At last it was announced that Frances Keen- ey, the Senior Beauty, had won with Beth Keller, the Junior High Queen, a close second. Thus Frances was proclaimed Queen of the Orange and Black. The 1927 Senior Class is very proud of its Queen because we all feel that Frances qualifies in not only beauty and popularity but also in scholarship and service. During her four years in I. H. S. she has taken an active part in school life always upholding our high standards and ideals. She is a mem- ber of the National Honor Society, Art Editor of the Orange and Black and has taken an active part in the Music Department and Girl Reserve Work. Don't you think I. H. S. has just reason to be proud of its annual queen? We knew you would agree. The only conclusion we can come to is that this has been the most successful contest ever carried on in our school and that it has determined the most beautiful and popular queen which ever reigned over our Orange and Black yearbook. -Maxine Boner '27 Page 28 ' 1 ' Y 1 V 'J' .

Page 47 Senior History In the fall of nineteen hundred and twenty-three, there assembled in the new Junior High School a large number of students from all the grade schools of Independence. They were called the green freshmen, but they were proud to be the first freshmen to enter such a magnificent institution. Under the new instructors everyone studied hard, and we did our best to show our appreciation of the new facilities that had come to us. But it was not all hard work, during the year we had one or two class parties besides the many other small gatherings, and everyone had the real' class spirit. The next fall the students were glad when school started Cthere are always exceptions, of courseb. We had found that we had increased our knowledge somewhat the year before, so we started right in where we left off. In the out- side activities during the year we were represented in all three of the major sports, and three members of our class were on the V. V. L. champion debate team. When we were juniors, some of our members entered every possible phase of school activities: Hi-Y, Y. W., athletics, debate, music, and scholarship. With the aid of Miss Gansel, our class sponsor, we produced the Junior Follies , one of the best performances of its kind ever shown in the auditorium. The class also gave to the seniors a feed they will never forget. Four years after the arrival of this class of green freshmen, and after four years of industrious study, these students have become candidates for grad- uation. This class may not be the most brilliant of those to graduate from I. H. S., although many things were accomplished, but we do think it is one of the best classes because the students succeeded by hard work. -Myrl Burns Page 48 V M nuamousm Lama.. ittibxvli . ,I ,,!

The banquet hall of the Memorial building was elaborately decorated in all of the rainbow colors. Huge rainbow arches stretched the length of the long tables, and under these rainbows large bowls of roses helped make the setting beautiful. The menu cards were pots of gold with the proverbial rainbows stretching to them. Balloons were used in decorating the chairs and the stage, on which an interesting program was given. The food was prepared by the domestic science department and was a real feast. On the clever menus the main dishes were named for Senior and Junior sponsors and officers. Music played all during the evening helped to make it one of the most treasured evenings in the memories of the Juniors and Seniors of '27, Page 50 Snapshots of the Juniors In 1924 we started on the hard journey on the road of school life. We had a definite aim in view, that of a High School diploma. Various things have made the journey more interesting. One thing especially which made our burdens lighter was the beautiful building in which We make our journey, and the wonderful equipment which makes us enjoy even the steep hills on the way. In order to show others some of our achievements and good times, we have taken snapshots of the journey this far. ' In the first lap of the journey we were almost too busy getting accustom- ed to the scenes to take many snapshots. Here is one of our Freshmen Mixed Chorus, though. In the second lap of our journey we began to get accustomed to cramming for quizzes, and we passed along the road without much trouble. We have a large number of snapshots to make us remember the work on this lap.- Here is one which was enlarged and put in the Annual of '26 under the name of Best All-Round Girl. That's Loretta Goodell. - Here's another good picture of the Debaters of '26. Two of them are our traveling companions. Here are three more from our group in the Scholarship team picture. We have several snap- shots of our athletic achievements on the Way. Here's a cheer leader from our group, and here's a picture of Captain-elect Leo Scott and two of the foot- ball team. Here's the basketball team with one from our gang, and the track team with four of our companions. What is that I see ahead? Ah, it is the stone marking the middle-point of our journey, and ahead is the third lap of the jou1'ney. We have Captain Leo Scott and four members of the football team with us again, and most of the teams claim about the same number of our bunch as they did before. We have another kind of snapshot though, it is of all of our group who were on the Honor Roll at any time during our journey. There is a large number in that one. We are passing over this part of the journey rapidly. But it is no wonder, for our leaders are Barbara Gansel and Marian Martin. With Miss Martin, the Art teacher, and Miss Gansel, who has had previous training in such matters, we had a very succesful Junior Follies and an original and attractive Junior-Senior Banquet. Is that another milestone ahead? Why, it's the end of this part of the journey! Well, we must rest awhile before we go on. Here is a paper some Senior dropped in his hurry to be off. Listen to what this Senior has adopted as his motto: The heights by great men reached and kept, Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night. Maybe we'd better change that idea about resting.

SOPH OMORE CLASS OFFICERS Seymour, Vice-President Barani, Secretary Speer, Treasurer Gibson, President Sophomore C lass History The Sophomore class of 1927, which is composed of 207 members, is one of the largest and strongest classes in the history of Independence High School. Perhaps this is due to the fact that this class began their high school career at the time of the organization and erection of the new Junior High School, and were doubly inspired by the beautiful new building, with its wonderful equipment, and decided then and there to show their appreciation and thank- fulness to the citizens of Independence by making the best of their opportun- ities. ' Representatives from this class have rendered valuable assistance in foot- ball, basketball, and track, and expect to be of even more value next year. We have won high honors in scholarship also. Last year Winifred Scott won second place in English at Pittsburg, and another member Won third place in English at Emporia. Not satisfied with this, Winifred proceeded to win second place in the state spelling contest. This year we have visions of again bringing home the bacon. The class officers who were elected this year are: Gus Gibson, presidentg Jean Seymour, vice-president, Thelma Barani, secretaryg and Gerald Speer, treasurer. The sophomores are particularly fortunate in having Miss Lucille Muenzenmayer and Miss Edith Hackney as their class sponsors this year. We sophomores think that we have the best and most' promising class in the history of I. H. S. Don't you agree with us? Time will tell. -Gus Gibson.

Junior High Girl Reserves The Girl Reserves of the Junior High School is an organization ifor all Jun- ior High girls who are interested in the worthwhile things of life. This organi- zation uses the plans made by the Y. W. C. A. for girls from twelve to eighteen years of age. - There are one hundred thirty-five members of the Girl Reserve in the Jun- ior High School this year. This number has been divided into two groups. One group is called the Blue Triangle and is sponsored by Miss McCune and Miss Crocker, the other is called the Blue Star and is sponsored by Miss Brown and Miss Wahl. Each group has its own ofiicers and its own meetings. The general programs for both groups are planned at the beginning of the year so that the physical, mental, and spiritual sides of life will find a. defi- nite place in the programs. The regular meetings a1'e held every two weeks and are in charge of members of the two groups. Occasionally speakers from the city are invited to talk to joint meetings. Devotionals form a pa1't of each program. The Girl Reserve tries to help the school and the city in every way possi- ble. This year this organization bought and dressed a friendship doll , gave toys for a children's party, helped with several Y. W. C. A. programs, and raised money for club expenses by selling ice cream and candy. Also, a repre- sentative of each group was sent to the district Girl Reserve meeting at Coffey- ville. The picture above shows all the oflticers of both groups. The main Officers for the two groups are: Blue Triangle-President, Beth Kellerg Vice-president, Yvonne Baileyg Secretary, Iris Cline, Treasurer, Harriet Scranton. Blue Star- President, Maurine Straing Vice-president, Ladean Bulmerg Secretary, Doro- thy Knockg Treasurer, Emma Jane Brandenburg.

A., has at present twenty members. The purpose of the Junior Hi-Y is to create, maintain, and extend, through- out the school and community, high standards of Christian character. The or- ganization has been as strong as the fellows who are in it, and the success of the club and the good it did depended on the sort of fellows in it and how hard they worked. ' The slogan is clean speech, clean sports, and clean living, which we hope has been carried, beyond the organization itself. The Junior Hi-Y has been doing many useful things in the past year. Monthly Bible Study has been very helpful and interesting. Also Inner Circle Meetings were helpful to all members. The Junior Hi-Y this year sent delegates to two conferences, one at Man- hattan, the other at Fort Scott. These delegates brought back many ideas on the general work of the Hi-Y. This year the following officers were elected to assist Mr. Heckethorn in the work: Ha1'ry Allen, Presidentg Clarence Scranton, Vice-presidentg Glesner Whistler, Secretary, and Clarence Hockensmith, treasurer. The organization owes its success to the untiring effort of its sponsor, Mr. Heckethorn. -Harry M. Allen.

Page '71 Junior High History September 6, 1927, found, as in preceding years, the Junior High School overflowing with nervous and excited children, some six hundred starting on their yearly pursuit of knowledge. Classification and enrollment having been previously taken care of, all were soon at their tasks of conquering readin', writin', and 'rithmetic. All went well for the first two weeks, but at the close of the third week, a disease which seemed to be very contagious broke out, and several were quarantined. Yellow cards were sent out. Parents and teachers alike became alarmed. By the end of the second three weeks most of the quarantines were removed, but very few entirely recovered from the disease. Some were wise and consulted a Health Officer, who recommended longer hours and closer application, and as a stimulent to the mind and body, more athletics, more school activitites, both mental and social. Following the advice of the Health Officer, Hi-Y and G. R. Clubs were formed, and have done much to socialize the groups, developing ideas of good citizenship as well as affording much pleasure. A band and orchestra were organized under the leadership of Mr. Geopfert. They have made much progress in their work and have afforded much enter- tainment for the student body. Quartets, choruses, and soloists furnish entertainment for chapel as well as for the public. At present, the Junior High student body has more people that have talent for music than it has had the past years, perhaps because they have had chorus training under the leadership of Miss Hazel Helen Hardy. But music is not our only claim to fame. The gym classes have put on some excellent programs which show the efficiency of our Physical Education direc- tors. The students of the various classes are working hard and are eager to do their part to uphold the honor of I. H. S. -Doris Conner '30 Page '72 ' , '1 Ax ,I Y GTIGS I 1 1 W W N QW , 1 L. E. LOSEY Director of Physical 'Education The training under the direction of L. E. Losey is a vital partof the life of all our athletes. In addition to his other duties Mr. Losey assumed the task of coach- ing the Junior College basketball team. DEANE H. SMITH Coach With Coach Smith at the helm, the outlook for a bright season is a sure thing. His is the task of coaching High School basket- ball, football, and track. All our school athletes are real followers of Smith. Page 75 Independence Cheer Leaders Page 74 HARRY ALLEN IRMA EDWARDS LORETTA GOODELL IFOCYFB?-IILLI 1 aim-ag Page 76 MYRL BURNS, Tackle. Weight 160 poundsg height 5 feet 9 inches. Burns was one of the mainstays of the team. Especially was it his wish to leave his feet and get some other man behind the line. He played tackle, making honorable mention in the Big Seven and second All-Valley teams. Burns is a senior. RAYMOND CLARK, Fullback. Weight 150 poundsg height 5 feet 8 inches. Clark was one of the smallest men on the team. He played fullback for the second year. Clark seemed to delight in spiking some poor end who tried to muss up an end run. He will be with us again next year. AMOS FOWLER, Guard. ' Weight 180 poundsg height 5 feet 10 inches. Fowler, playing his first year of football, developed into a heavy, hard playing linesman, who hit the line hard and held tight when on the defense. He has two more years to go and should improve greatly with more ex- perience. JOHN KLUMPP, Halfback. Weight 155 poundsg height 5 feet 8 inches. Klumpp was the man who made Chanute Stop! Look! and Lis- ten l He just naturally ran wild. He was always a good dependa- ble man and a very good line plunger. We lose John this year. RALEIGH STONECIPHER, Halfback. Weight 140 poundsg height 5 feet 8 inches. This is Raleigh's first year on the team, but he was a first string man last year. He played half- back with Klumpp, and they made a mean pair. Raleigh was fast and a hard hitter in line plunging. He has one more year. CHESTER WELCH, End. Weight 155 poundsg height 5 feet 9 inches. This was Chet's first year of foot- ball, but he was a veteran in disguise. He was a very good end. Although he did not play regularly all season, he did his share later in the year. He is a sophomore. GEORGE SIPPLE, Halfback. Weight 140 poundsg height 5 feet 8 inches. Sipple is a Sedan product, and a halfback. He was one of the nicest broken field runners for I. H. S. this year. Later in the season, because of Peck's bad knee, Sipple played quarter. In the Coffeyville game he played the whole game with a strained ligament in his shoulder. LOREN KEELEY, Tackle. Weight 170 poundsg height 6 feet. Keeley is a man from the country Where men are made. He played tackle for his first year with Independence. He came here from Tyro and will be here one more year. Page 77 Qx.. as'2' gift' is fn H iw 52222 il, . it, 'Sis ii i li -rw. wi Page 78 VIRGIL NEAR, Tackle. Weight 180 poundsg height 6 V feet. Near was a tackle at the first of the season, and also made his letter at that position last year, but like Scott he was shifted out of position, and made one of the most dreaded linesmen the team had. He made the second All- Valley team, but met his hard luck at Coffeyville, where he broke his collar bone. Near has one more year. WILLIAM FEATHERNGILL, l' ' ' Center. Weight 180 poundsg height 6 il feet IM! inches. Featherngill played his second year in great style, making the second All-Valley team. He nev- er went to sleep at all while on his job, and made up the fourth man to place an All-Valley Sec- ond team position. We lose Bill this year. LEO SCOTT, Guard. CCaptainD Weight 150 poundsg height 5 7 feet QVZ inches. Scotty was an excellent man in every Way. Because of a short- age of men he had to change positions often during the sea- son. Even then heA was chosen on the second All-Valley team, and re-elected captain for 1927. RICHARD PECK, Quarterback. Weight 154 poundsg height 5 feet IOVZ inches. Dick with his flaming top was high point man for Independence this year. He could always be de- pended upon if We were in scor- ing distance, but he was hurt in the Iola game, and was out for the season. This proved a great loss for the team. IRVIN KING, Tackle. Weight 160 pounds, height 5 feet 9 inches. King played his first year with Independence this season. ,He moved here from Caney, and proved himself to be one of the most able tackles in the league. King is a senior this year. VELIMIRE JOHNSON, End. Weight 160 poundsg height 5 feet 10 inches. Johnson played his second year for I. H. S. and is only a sopho- more. He played end and was a hard man to pass. Johnson was hurt early in the season this year, but stuck it out till he sprained his ankle in the Coffey- ville game.

The team as a whole seemed never to be able to play in the same game, because of ineligibility till the Iola game. There we held the score at 6 to 0 in our favor till the half, when they beat us. After that came the Chanute game. Chanute Was one of the two teams that scored on Coffeyville this year. We beat them 13 to 0, giving the-m only one first and ten. Then came the Coffeyville game, in which Near and Johnson were hurt early in the game and Dutchman Klumpp had to be taken out in the third quarter. Page 80 IIBHSISGTBHLLH The Basketball Season The Basketball season for 1926-1927 was not a -great success, the team Winning only six out of the fourteen games played. However, we never lost our fight during the whole season, piling up a total of 292 points to our oppon- ents' 311. There is no doubt but that the team was in a slump right after the Christmas holidays. Before, we played Oswego and beat them badly, but after the Caney game the team could not seem to hit. They would get the shots and have the teamwork, but could not seem to make their efforts count. Most of the games were close. Independence had her share of the honors in all-valley men, placing William Featherngill on the all-valley team and Near as forward on the second team. King was given honorable mention. In the individual scoring of the V. V. League Bill was high until the last four games, when he took sick with the flu, which put him into third place with Benefiel of Coffeyville and Spong of Fredonia, first and se-cond respec- tively. Near was not able to play at all in the first four games because of a cracked collar bone as the result of football. Even with this handicap he end- ed seventh in individual scoring of the Valley. But what our team could do is shown in the last Cherryvale game, the be- ginning of the come-back, where we beat them 26-22 after they beat us 19 to 10 earlier in the season. Fredonia in the next game only beat us 26 to 23 in the last three minutes after we led the whole game. Then to top out the season, was our very fine but unexpected victory over Parsons. Parsons, although one of the leading teams of the Big Seven, met defeat on the Independence court 26-22, after Independence outplayed them the whole game. Dead Man went wild that game and began hitting, which spells death to any other team. Near also seemed to take a delight in making baskets, was shown when Par- sons began creeping up and Virgil got an extra field goal in the last minute. Independence after the Valley schedule was finished entered the district tournament at Neodesha, March 11 and 12. We drew Burlington for the first game Friday afternoon, but because of bad roads Burlington could not get there, and we had that game on a forfeit. Then we had to play the winner of the Emporia-Sedan game, which turned out to be Emporia, who beat us 23 t0 17 after a hard-fought game. That was the last game of the season, and also the last basketball game for I. H. S. that King, Featherngill, Klumpp, and Burns will play.

IRVIN KING Played his first year of basket- ball for Independence this year and was one of the best defensive play- ers in the league, making the op- posing forwards shoot from center more than they would like. King is a Senior this year. VIRGIL NEAR CCAPTAIN-ELECTJ Was not able to play the whole season because of a cracked collar bone from football. Near will be able to play for Independence at least one more year. He also made second All Valley team. Page 84 ELMER HATFIELD Made his first letter in athletics in basketball, at which he is now an expert. He did not come into his own until several games had passed, but after that he was one of the regulars. Elmer will play for I. H. S. one more year. JOHN KLUMPP Klumpp, the sheik of the squad, who played guard with King the last of the season, and forward un- til Near was able to play, was a dependable man, sometimes mak- ing as many points from guard as the forward. He played his last year for the old school. MYRL BURNS The old dependable never failed us, and was always there in a pinch. This was his first basket- ball letter, although he did play football. He is a statesman as Well as an athlete-.

The Track Season The 1927 track team, headed by James Barnett, seems to have a decided edge on the track team of the past two years. The only exhibition of this has been in the Inter Class meet and the dual meet with Cherryvale. Although no records were officially broken, several indications have been that it would not be impossible. Richard Ross, the high point man, in our estimation is the fastest man in the Valley League. He ran the 220 in almost Valley time against the wind, and the 100 yard dash in 10.3 against the Wind. The other strong event is the fast relay team composed of Ross, Hatfield, Scott, and Peoples. Among the meets the team will have this year are Caney, Chanute, K. U. Relays, Baker University Relays, and the Valley meet at Fredonia on Friday, May 13. This day, Friday, the thirteenth, has always been a lucky day for Independence. In 1925 we won the Declamation, and in 1926 we beat Neodesha in football, 14-13, after they missed two field goals by less than a foot, both on a Friday the thirteenth. , The rain has handicapped the team very much this year, as meets with Coffeyville, Caney, and Chanute had to be postponed due to the highest floods of all time in this part of the state. , 1 The events and Independence entrants are as follows: 50 yard dash, 100 yard dash, and 220 yard dash, Ross, Hatfield, Klumpp, Peoples, 440 yard dash, Scott, Near, Barnettg 880 yard dash, Barnett, Burns, Near, Hansen, Burnsideg Mile run, Kratz, Simpson, Wilsong Pole Vault, Klurnpp, Louyg Broad Jump, Salathiel, Peoples, Wycoffg High Jump, Salathiel, Wycoff, Peoplesg Javelin, Salathiel, Wycoff, Hamlin, Discus, Hamlin, Hollar, Wycoff, Burns, Shot Put, Hamlin, Hollarg 220 yard low hurdles, Klumpp, Salathiel, Scott.

' The I Club The 'T' Club was organized by Coach Smith in 1924, his firstyfeai' here, for the holders of athletic letters. The first members werethe football letter men, and a few track men, and a few who were left over from the year before, there being no football letter man except Eldridge Roach back. The I Club was organized for the purpose of' giving the fellows who are not participating in the type of athletics taking placeat that particular time something to do, such as selling tickets for the football and basketball games, officiating in grade school Field Day exercises, and anything else that would benefit the school in any way. To make it more interesting we try to have a meeting on Thursdays at activity period. We also have at least two initiations each year. These initi- ations of the I Club include tests for baveryl and. several 'endurance tests, as well as ordeals to test the candidate's temper. Wehave our own ofiicers, and Coaches Smith and Losey are our advisors. The athletics honored are football, basketball, tennis, and track.

The Girls' Athletic Association The Girls' Athletic Association was organized this year by the- girls' physical education department. The aim of the association is to foster true sportsmanship and to further interest in gymnastic and athletic activities. Membership is open to any girl in Senior High school who can earn 200 points. She may then be initiated and receive her G. A. A. emblem. The first year has been spent in developing a constitution and point system, and in the organization of an after-school program of activities. The sports program includes class tournaments in volley ball and basketball, and a tennis tournament. This year the Sophomores won the volley ball tournament, and the Seniors were victorious in basketball. Next year it is hoped that hockey may also be included. There have been three clubs organized: the swimming club, the outing club, and the dancing club. The association also took part in the Spring Festival given by the physical education department. Next year it is our aim to enroll every girl in school in some sport or club. The activities are so varied that any girl can find something that will interest her. As soon as any girl earns 1000 points she will be given her block I , Page 88 f'1- FI X , 1 3 'WV W1 Q1 ,,r1?

In connection with this was a high school chorus of five hundred voices and an orchestra of one hundred and fifty-five pieces. Each of these large groups was made up of high school students from the southwestern states. The chorus was under the direction of George Oscar Bowen, director of Music in the Tulsa High School, while N. DeRubertis, leader of the Kansas City Little Symphony Orchestra, had charge of the orchestra. Independence High School was represented in the chorus by tive students, namely, Margaret Swan, Eleanor Morris, Erma Hibbens, Hiel Pugh, and Mar- garet Harperg while Irene Fansler, Enid Hines, Lloyd Vrooman, and George Gilmore represented the orchestra. Individual rehearsals of both the chorus and orchestra were held through- out the week in order to be throughly prepared for the final performance. Each participant was supposed to have a fair knowledge of each selection before he went, and to this end our representatives Worked quite diligently. Also during the week opportunity to hear things of musical worth was afforded. Ossip Gabrilowitsch, director of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, who is also a noted pianist, gave a splendid piano recital on Wednesday evening. Thursday evening a thirty-five thousand dollar Kilgin pipe organ, a memorial gift to the high school from the graduating classes, was dedicated by Palmer Christian, an organist of note. The qualities of the organ were displayed with exceptional talent. The combined concert of the high school chorus and orchestra took place in Convention Hall, Friday evening, March 4, and was one of the high points of the conference. H ' The week was one of musical inspiration and pleasure for each participant, and the time and effort spent in preparation was not regretted. Margaret Harper. Page 96 DEBATE TEAM Overton Boner . 'l Zellers Arrington Maust CCoachJ Leatherman Wilkerson Knock Debate The first call for volunteers for the I. H. S. debate squad found seven faithful logicians ready for duty. A few others signified their good intentions but failed to pass muster. After some little experimentation to determine quality of voice, stage poise, and debating ability in general, the teams were organized. The mem- bers of the affirmative team were Clyde Knock, Arthur Overton, and Wallace Arrington. The members of the negative team were Edith Zellers, Maxine Boner, and Shirley Wilkinson, with Dorothy Leatherman as alternate. The first debate found the I. H. S. debaters none too well conditioned for the fray, consequently, they were unable to withstand the withering fusilade of argumentative fire of their opponents. The result was an almost unani' mous defeat for the entire team. According to rules of debate it was necessary for both Independence tearfi to win the second debate by unanimous decisions so that they might be eligible for the final contest. The impossible was accomplished, for in the second con- test Independence defeated her foes by unanimous decisions. The survivors of the preliminary contests were Fredonia, Coifeyville, and Independence, who met to decide the Verdigris Valley championship, February 9, 1927. The contest raged bitterly for almost two hours while victory swayed in the balance. After the clouds of battle had cleared, Coffeyville was herald- ed conquerorg Independence was ranked a close second, and Fredonia, with one lone decision, brought up the rear.

The Senior High Girl Reserves The Girl Reserves have proved to be a very lively and enthusiastic organi- zation this year. The sponsors, Misses Lillian Case, Ma1'ian Martin, and Her- palice Gray, have led the girls in a well-planned program. - The Girl Reserves have met every two weeks, and their programs have been centered around the theme, The Knights of the Blue Triangle. The Cabinet has been unusually strong and ambitious to make the meetings interesting. The first activity the organization undertook was that of supplying the hungry rooters at the football games with various kinds of food. Since the close of the football season they have been working in projects of civic and national interest, such as: the dressing and sending of three Ameri- can dolls to Japan for the Doll Festival, a Christmas party and tree for the poor children, and gifts to the Mexican settlement. The local Girl Reserves sent eleven dele-gates to the Southeast Kansas Girl Reserve conference at Coffeyville. The girls were so inspired with the confer- ence that they have made every efort to bring it to Independence next year, and it is very probable that they will be successful in their efforts. The Annual Mother and Daughter Banquet, which was given early in March, carried out the theme of spring in decorations, menu, and program. Thirty-five mothers enjoyed the hospitality of their daughters. Mrs. Gebhardt of Wichita gave the main address. The Girl Regperves expect to close the year by sending delegates to Estes Park, the National Y. W. camp, this summer.

The Senior Hi-Y The purpose of Hi-Y clubs is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian living. Our Hi-Y club has been very active, and we have considered it a very happy privilege to have a part in the activities of our school and help out in our weak way to make the school bigger and better. The I. H. S. Hi-Y club has been represented at three conferences this year. The iirst was the State Conference at Manhattan, followed by the sectional con- ferences at Winfield and Ft. Scott. Last year we sent a number of fellows to Camp Wood, and this year we are planning to send another group. This Camp, at Elmdale, is owned and operated by the state Hi-Y organization and is rated as one of the best camps in America. It isn't like home, but it surely is swell camping . Page 99 The Independence Student The Independence Student, the high school's weekly newspaper, is pref- pared and published every Wednesday by the two journalism classes, under the instruction of Mr. H. C. Brown. An attempt is made to secure all the 'up-to- the-minute news of the past week, covering the activities of all the Indepen- dence schools, from the junior college down to the grades, with principal em- phasis upon tho high school news. Practically all the news-gathering, headline writing, and copy reading is done by the journalism students. Staff members are appointed by the instruc- tor as a reward for merit, and the staff is changed frequently to give all an opportunity. Q The pictures on the opposite page represent those who helped make The Student this year one of the best high school newspapers in the state. They are, reading from left to right: Top row-Sabyna Vandersloot, John Tarr, Velma McConnell, Virgil Ne-ar, and Alma Moon. Second row-Esther Welbaum, Margaret Campbell, Douglas Scott, Nadyne McDaniel, and Christine Tharp. Third row-Leo Scott, Ida Miller, Mr. Brown Cinstructorj, Lola Sexton, and Farrol Bever. Fourth rowfLois Truesdell, Dessa Froebe, Donald Knight, Gladys Ringle, and Tressie Holmes. Fifth row-Frances Rees, Elmer Hatfield, George Sawyer, Josephine Keller, and Jessie Mustain. if F K Whatever laurels may be due The Student must be shared by those who have contributed materially to its success. The paper is printed by the school printing department, which, under the able and experienced guidance of Mr. Reppert, has worked in perfect harmony with the journalists. There has never been a late edition, and the printing is far above the average. The grade school principals have been dependable in the reporting of their news, and Prof. Klassen has efficiently supervised the college news. Miss Stewart's typewriting students have assisted promptly whenever needed. E E, All in all, The Student is a worthy organ, loyally supporting the school at all times and giving it the publicity it deserves.

Bottom Row-Antener, Hamlin, Keeney, Bechtel, Dittmer, Slocum. The Honor Society Our chapter of the National Honor Society is an organization of which I. H. S. may well be proud. The fact that the Honor Society is national rather than local adds greatly to its honor and dignity. This society was first established in I. H. S. in 1924. Due to the able guard- ianship of Mr. Hughes, Miss Clapp, and Miss Beuchat of fomer years and our sponsor, Miss Jarrett, and the Honor Society Committee this year, the society has flourished and gained steadily both in prestige and membership. To be a member of the Honor Society does not necessarily mean you are merely a student-in other words, a bore. According to the rules for selection, the Honor Society member should be the ideal high school boy or girl. The founders of the society fully realizing that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, figuratively speaking, endeavored to promote- not only scholarship, the first requirement, but also leadership, service and character. The ability to lead others in school activities, in little things, will later as- sert itself in the greater fields of life and cannot be encouraged enough. Service to your classmates, your school, and your community is another fac- tor which looms high in the world of success. The last, but not least, requirement of an Honor Society member is char- acter, the greatest achievement in a truly great life. Character can never be over-emphasized. The possession of a good character is life's achievement. So when you see the little gold emblem of the National Honor Society, whether on coat lapel or party frock, you may safely assure yourself that he, or she, is an outstanding student in his or her school. Outstanding in Scholar- ship, outstanding in Service and Leadership, and outstanding in Character. -Edith Zellers '27, Page 102 The Junior Follies The annual Junior Follies was presented by the Junior Class Friday evening, March 18, at 8:00 o'clock, to the largest audience assembled in the auditorium this year. The first scene was laid in a Toy Shop under the capable management 0, Avery Mitchell. It is even rumored that Avery, realizing his success in this occupation, will take it up as his life's work. A short clever play, The Elopers , was given next. The third part consisted of four living pictures. The radio group was next, and Naomi Frile'y tuned in and picked up a delightful and varied program. Charleston Charlie and his partner made a great hit in their dancing act. In the next scene, The Moonlight Chorus, the song sung by the girls and their escorts was composed by Margaret Harper. Hiel Pugh, as the sailor with a sweetheart in every port, broke many hearts, but after his many love affairs he came back again to his American sweetheart, Margaret Colburn. The whole cast in the finale sang Lucky Day, a very appropriate song. The decided success is due to the original ideas and patience of Miss Gan- sel, the stage effects and art work of Miss Martin, the dancing under the direc- tion of Miss Spradling, and the play and speaking Da1'tS directed by Miss Ingle- man. The Junior Class feels very pleased over the outcome of 'the Follies and hopes to give the Seniors a banquet which they can never forget. -Eleanor Morris.

Junior High PRINTING AND BINDING The High School Classes in Printing Page 104 A as The Public Library The indebtedness of the city schools to our public library increases from year to year. Many libraries may have more volumes and more room, but few, if any, can boast of better organization and service, the result of persistent and conscientious effort on the part of the librarian, Anna G-emmell. Her combined teaching and library experience makes her thoroughly conversant with the needs of the student body. The spirit of co-operative endeavor: has been the special aim of Miss Gemmell and her efficient staff. No department of school activity has been overlooked in assisting students in the grades, junior and senior high schools, and junior college, and all receive the same helpful consideration. The best material obtainable for debate, declamation, and oratorical contests is furnished both high school and college by diligent research, organization, and expert direction. Reserve shelves are filled with books which meet the demands of the English courses throughout the school system. The public library means far more to Independence than a collection of books. That in itself would be a great adjunct to the educational facilities of the city. But when this institution, with its equipment and resources, has been directed along lines that make it meet so abundantly every requirement f f the schools, it becomes something of such vital importance, that it at once takes its place as an essential part of the community's educational facilities.

Horse power is the distance one horse can carry a pound of water in an hour. A vacuum is nothing with the air sucked out of it, put up in a pickle bottle-it is very hard to get.

Fortifications are two twenti- fications. -1966-3566-76 Carl Bowen: Do you know who is in the hospital? Margaret Colburn: No, who?
