You d think from implication 'Twas some kind of a game! Like these checker boards and all That are made for four amusementg But here's where you shall fall- 'Tis education's agent! Mayhap they're like the chessmen Kept always on the jump Providing for the children N-ow here in one big lump. But lo, the simile ends For this most wonderful board Is one 'indeed which lends lt's brain and brawn, not hoard. It does all within it's power To help you win your game And blessings it does shower On everyone the same. Continue on this pleasing work Let not your zeal abateg Work hard, work hard, and never Shirk- No discard for your fate. VN-f-H1934-Yrs: 0 Page 11 ,THE ORANGE Our Superintendent You are, 'tis very, very clear The pride of all the high school here. You are sedate and thoughtful, too, And ever help so tried and true. 'Tis Clement this and Clement that- Why sh-ouldn't he get many a pat? He's here, he's there, he's every- where, Of all the schools he's taking care. We like to have a guiding hand That does his business understand And strives to do his utmost best To do this Well, also with zest. ,,N-,W1934 Page 12 AND BLACK l J.H. CLEMENT, A.B., A,M., Superintendent He deserves our praises thru and thru- Could we do all that he must do? We very seldom realize What tasks Within his realm lies. An author even-what's his line It's education all the time. This shows how clever he must be To do this takes mentality. In all he ever undertakes We wish his luck for all our sakesg For truly does he merit luck Since this good lman has lots of pluck. -ii'-w THE ORANGE AND BLACK E. R. STE ENS . S., M. S., Principal Our dl Principal r There's no man that's so efficient In all the land throughout, Nor one that's less impatient, As we quite know, no doubt. If he Weren't capable, He couldn't hold this job- For his hands are Very full In ruling all this mob. -S.,,.- 1934 We like him well, indeedg For he's a chummy sort And just the kind to lead In study and in sport. You're puzzled on school subjects? Then take them to this man. There's no person he rejectsg He will help you all he can. A jolly sort of hombre With a grin that's very wideg It's seldom that he's sombeigi And for this we're gratified. May long he be at school And longer be remembered V As one who was no fool But with fine points engenderedu Page 13 V 4 THE ORANGE AND BLACK ANNA ALLEN, B. S. Cooking GRACE AXTON, A. B.

Now that we have reached our goal, we are proud to display the talent of the senior class. When freshmen, there was ap- proximately two hundred of us. Now we number one hundred fif- ty-one-ninety girls and sixty-one boys. This is the largest gradu- ating class since 1924. When we were sophomores, we were active in athletics, scholar- ship, music, and dramatics. In our junior year we increased our act- ivities to include tennis, golf, and debate. Several of the junior class were qualified for the Honor So- -ciety. Because of financial condi- tions, we did not have the Junior- Senior banquet, and, therefore there was no necessity for pro- ducing a junior play. This year, our last, our class officers are John Stichman Jr., identg Wiiiifred McCoy, secretaryg John Thomps-on, treasurer. A N D BLACK A large part of the football team was made up of Seniors this year. Although not a championship team, it was a very good one and offered some very thrilling games to us. We placed one man, Paul Rogers, on the Southeast Kansas team. He was choosen as honorary captain. We placed two on the basket- ball team. They were Paul Rogers and Bill Sloop. This year a new sport, swimming, was introduced into our school's activities. We had one member, Roland Goll, on that team. He placed second in the back stroke in the state meeting held at Topeka. The track team is largely com- posed of senior material. We had two members in our class who ugamboled ,on the green. They were outstanding in golf. These two members were Roderick Wake- land and Herbert Lodge. We have several members out for tennis. In the field of forensics we were represented by a large number. The dramatic ability of our class is perhaps the most extensive of our activities. This talent was dis- played by several plays and the senior play, The Judsons Enter- tain. After these four years we have wonder will our future goal spell success or failure. Page 36 Class Colors---Blue and Silfver. Class F lower---F orget-me-not.

Likewise, a class may be judged by the scholarship, leader- ship, and the wholehearted part- icipatin of its members in the school activities. The junior class has been very outstanding in scholarship. Sev- eral juniors have been entered in the state scholarship contest by the school. There will be a large number of juniors eligible for the N a tio n al H-onor Society this spring. - I Participation in school activi- ties has been one of the outstand- ing traits of the junior class. Many of the junior boys are taking an active part in the school athletics. Several members of the football team, four of the five members of the basketball team, and the entire swimming team are juniors. There are junior boys on the track, golf, and tennis teams also. We are very proud of the number of jun- ior boys who are members of the I , club. The debate class this year is composed of juniors for the most part. For instance, eight of the twelve debaters entered in the Parsons tournament are juniors. Although the debate teams have not been very successful this year, these junior debaters will return next fall with a year's experience, and we're expecting a better re- cord from them. v-Q2 AND BLACK' This class has been well repre- sented in the dramatics depart- ment. Many members of the boys and girls glee clubs are juniors. Mem- bers of this class make up a large per cent of the orchestra and band also. 'lhere is one junior who has been particularly outstanding in the musical department. A number of juniors are enroll- ed in the art classes. The talent of several of these young artists has been acclaimed through the win- ning of prizes. Many members of the junior class have appeared on the chapel programs at various times during the year. In looking over the 'membership lists of such school clubs as Girl Reserves, Hi-Y, G. A. A., Internat- ional club, and others, we find the names of many juniors. They not only belong to these organizations, but are taking an active part in them. Examples of the leadership of this class can be found in the fact that all the G. A. A. officers, five of the eight members of the Hi-Y cabinet, and six of the twelve members of the G. R. cabinet are juniors. The junior class is sponsoring a banquet this year. In spirt of ex- isting conditions it is expected to be one of the most gala affairs that I. H. S. has experienced in years. Thus we can see that this class has had a very successful year. Due credit should be given to the capable leadership, and hard work of the class officers and the sponsors of the class, Misses Beth Hall and Irene Murphy. With such a record as juniors, we have every reason to believe that the class of '35 will go down as one of the most outstanding classes of I .H. S.

The officers chosen by the class were Paul Neilson, president, Ansell Hugo, vice-presidentg Tavy Kandt, secretaryg and Ted Baker, trea- surer. One of the fmost important acts of the officers this year was choosing the class colors, motto, and flower. The colors chosen were red and white, the flower was the red rose, and the motto was Be sure you are right, then go ahead . In the winter sports three Sophomores won lettersg Lloyd McKain and Myron Cadwell in football, and Robert Hockett in swimming. A number of Sopho- mores took part in basketball and a good turnout is expected for the spring sports. In the scholastic field it is note- worthy, that, although the Sopho- more year is generally conceeded to be the hardest in high school, nearly half the places on the honor roll were held by Sophomores. If this standard of scholarship is carried on through high school, the graduating class of '36 should be one of the foremost in the history of Independence High School. One member of the class, Virginia Spellman, won first place in Latin in the Emporia State Teachers' College Scholarship Contest in 1933. This Sophomore class is the first to take an active part in dramatics work, and although this work was opened to Sopholmores for the first time this year, two members of the class, Emma Lou Midcap and Seth Kellogg, played leading roles in the Dramatics De- partmentis first long play of the year, Seventeen . This years record may seem im- pressive now, but the class is only getting started, and you ain't seen nuthin' yet! The officers, aided by a com- mittee, planned an All-Sophomore program, which was given in As- sembly during the early part of May. 'fe-N 1934-'--'N Page 48 N lx ACTIVITIES QM I Q 1 Q . Y X K T H E O R A N G E The Dramatics Club The Dee Dee club, the forerun- ner of the present dramatics club, was organized in 1922. It was composed of the members of Miss Ingleman's oral English classes. They chose as their first president Clair Midcap. It had been the cus- tom of the school to give only one play a year, but after the forma- tion of the club two were present- ed, the first being, Bobby Takes a Look , the second Clarence , a comedy by Booth Tarkington. Twelve years have elapsed since the first small group was organ- ized. Each year has made a history of its own. The club has gr-own both in ef- ficiency and membership. This year marks a new stepping stone, since this makes the first year sophomores have been admittedg also the first time a sophomore has taken a lead in a long play. The dramatics club meetings are held every other weekg programs V-qf AND BLACKM consisting of readings, short plays and skits, are given at each. Miss Ingleman gives pointers on stage work. This year the club has presented two long plays, which were very successful. 'The first, Seventeen by Booth Tarkington, was present- ed on December 85 the second, Thirteenth Chair ' by Bayard Veiller, was given on February 9. Besides the long plays many short plays have been presented. The most outstanding are: Gas , which was a portrayal of how war w i ll be carried on in 1940g Breakfast , a play which showed the laughs from a family break- fast table, Cthis play was present- ed at the Teachers' meeting, which was held in Parsonsjg P o e t r y and Plaster , which shows the woes of the wife of a would-be- poet, Cthis play received many words of praise and was presented in the Cherryvale Assembly pro- gramj 3 and I Knew George Wash- ington '. These and many other short plays and readings were presented to the assemblies of b-oth junior and senior high with great success. We owe the progress of the club to the guidance of Miss Anna Ingleman. 1 9 3 4 S-'W Page 49 --THE ORANGE AND BLACK HSEVENTEENU Left to right: Decker, Whipple, Goodwin, Midcap, Mayberry, Behrens, Kellogg, Holdren, Seymour, Webb, Gray, O'Brien, Bowen, Etzold.

Page 50 1934 QTHE ORANGE The Science Club The Science club of the high school was organized in the fall of 1933, with Miss Isa Ruth Plank, the chemistry and physics teacher as sponsor. The officers of the s-o- ciety were Neal Masters, pres- ident, Frances Wilkin, vice-pres- i d e n tg Jane Ford, secretary- treasurerg and Robert Noal, prog- ram chairman. After the first semester the club voted to elect a new program chairman with an entirely new committee. James Tharp received the position and served the remainder of the year. The Science club met once every two weeks, and the meetings were taken up by reports, films, and lectures b y o u t si d e speakers. Notable among these speakers A N D BLACK were Colonel J. P. Dunn, Paul Hammond, and Mr. Watson, the city chemist. The reports and lectures took in all p h a s e s of science as did the films which the club obtained. During February the Science club had a picnic at Table Mound, accompanied by the sponsor, Miss Plank. An enjoyable time was had by all. A Science club of other years bequeathed to us a small sum which put us on our way to finan- cial independence. We , likewise, are leaving a like sum for our suc- cessors. The Science club has not been an annual organization, but is or- ganized in the science classes from year to year if there are enough students interested to warrant having such ai club. After having started the Science club anew, this year, we trust that there will be enough interest, in the years to come, to make this organization a permanent part of the school's activities.

THE ORANG The Orange and A Black For .many years the Orange and Black has been an important and eagerly awaited feature of the school year. The staff is glad that it has not been necessary to dis- continue the annual this year be- cause of financial conditions. We have endeavored to uphold the standard of quality established in former years. We hope and believe we have succeeded. This 1933-1934 edition of the Orange and Black, published an- nually by the senior class, is the result this year not only of the efforts of the staff and sponsor, but of the cooperation of many other students and teachers whose work has been truly appreciated. Mr. M. F. Reppert, printing in- structor of the high school, was The sponsor -of the book and mainly responsible for its publication. Mr. H. C. Brown of the journalism de- partment helped greatly with the kodak sections and with the copy- reading. Miss Katharyn DeLury, junior high mathematics teacher was in charge of the junior high section. Miss Lota Old, art in- structor, and Miss Jessie Stewart, typing teacher, also assisted. The staff worked under the A N D B L A C K ANNUAL STAFF Aubuchon Gilmore J. Robinson Holden supervision of the above named committee. A committee of teach- ers chose the staff and it was then formally elected by the senior class. The staff this year was composed of seven members. This is much smaller than in previous years, making it necessary to di- vide the work up among fewer members. The editor-in-chief was Mary Louise Aubuchon, who work- ed with Mr. Reppert in the issuing of the annual and assigned and gathered up the stories and write- ups at the proper time. The as- sociate-editor, Virginia Gilmore, typed the senior section and many of the stories for the printers. B-oth editors worked on the junior and senior sections of the annual and wrote several of the stories. The business manager, Frank VVW 1934T - N Page 52 ' THE ORANGE ANNUAL STAFF Silger Gray D reisbach Holden, and the assistant business manager, John Robinson, worked together on the advertising and other business work of the book. The joke editor was Edwin Silger, whose duty it was to prepare the joke section. The kodak editor, Katherine Gray, had charge of all k-odak sections. The printing man- ager, Joe Dreisbach, helped Mr. Reppert in the printing of the book. The pictures of the members -of the junior class this year were taken differently than before. They were taken by the kodak editor instead of at the studios, with the object in view of saving money for the students. This of course put additional work on the kodak editor. A N D BLACK The poems written about Mr. Stevens, Mr. Clement, and the Board of Education, by an out- standing member of the senior class are another new feature of the yearb-ook. This year Time was used as the theme of the book. This is quite different from any theme previously used. Without the constant effort, careful planning, advice and su- pervision of Mr. Reppert, it pro- bably would have been impossible t-o publish this Orange and Black. He not only drew up the plans for the book, but also supervised the printing and binding which was done by the printing department. It was he who helped the staff out of the difficulties with which it found itself confronted. The staff is under great obligations to him and is truly grateful to him. We submit this 1933-1934 Or- ange and Black to you, the stu- dents of I.H.S. The book is far form perfect as you will see, but we have put forth all our efforts to make it a book -of superior quality. We hope that you will en- joy the book, as we have endeavor- ed to please all in every way pos- sible. The staff and sponsors have tried to produce a yearbook a little different in theme and execution from former ones and have also worked to make this Orange and Black a true record and reminder of the happenings of this school year, both the usual and the un- usual things. As such we hope it will succeed, for that is the real purpose of an annual. VY '1934 Y t Page 53 THE ORANGE High School Debate While the debate season was not one of outstanding achievement, and in spite of the fact that no trophies were received, each part- icipant has profited considerably through the actual knowledge gained in this activity. The teams were handicapped by lack of ex- perience, since only one letterman returned from last year. The debate subject this year was, Resolved, that the United States should adopt the essential features of the British system of radiio control and operation. The question was difficult because in a great many instances it was a matter of personal opinion. The first tournament Independ- ence entered was the tri-state high school meet at the Pittsburg Teachers' college, held November 10 and 11. There were approxi- mately twenty different towns from Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri entered. The group was eliminated in the preliminaries and returned home after the all- college party that night. Southwestern college was host to the next tournament, held Dec- ember 1 and 2. Fifty-seven schools from two states were represented. A novel system was used. On Fri- day each team was allowed to de- bate in four non-decision debates. The purpose .of this was to give the teams practice. On Saturday each school was alliowed to enter only two teams. The contestants were Frances Gowing and Ruth Hel- mang and Vera Keener and Ed- ward Davis. Both teams survived the second round. A N D BLACK DEBATE Helman Gowing Deever Holden Yoe Stevens P. Davis In the Coffeyville tournament, December 8 and 9, the I. H. S. de- baters showed up well among the eighty teams participating. The teams were divided into five brackets and each contestant was given an opportunity to debate five times Friday. After elimina- tions, the two highest affirmative and negative teams in each bracket were entitled to debate V-f-1934---fe Page 54 THE ORANGE AND BLACK DEBAT E E. Davis Keener Gibson Bradbury Clark Shepard Reed S a t u r d a y. T h e Independence teams surviving Friday's elimina- tions were Frank Holden and Law- rence Deever, negativeg and Vera Keener and Edward Davis, affir- mative. The negative team was eliminated in the seventh round, and the affirmative lost their de- bate in the quarter finals. Perhaps the largest and mfost extensive tourney entered into was YN-'N-1934 held at the College of Emporia, January 5 and 6. Thirty-three towns and ninety-four teams com- posed this tournament. All teams were compelled to win three out of four debates in order to enter the eliminations. Tvwo teams composed of Ruth Helman and Vera Keener, and Helen Deane Gibson and Jessie Bradbury, enter- ed but were defeated in the first round of eliminations Saturday morning. The closing of the debate sea- son was marked by the South East- ern Kansas meet held in Parsons, February 9 and 10. Each team de- bated one side of the question, according to the rules of the tour- nament. Independence failed to place, however. Much is expected of next year's debaters since they have had much valuable experience and will be seasoned. 'Ihose returning are: Jessie Bradbury, Mayselle Clark, Edward Davis, Philip Davis, Law- rence Deever, Helen Deane Gib- son, Ruth Helman, Donald Reed, Leland Shepard, and Tom Yoe. If the teams next year continue to improve as they have this year, they shuould go far. Independence high school is very fortunate to have such a de- bate coach as Mr. Jacoby, who is recognized as one of the outstand- ing high school forensic coaches in this section. School authorities recognized the importance of de- bate and have made a place for it in the regular high school course and Mr. Jacoby has used this per- iod advantageously. Thanks to the fine work of the coach, I. H. S. de- baters are regarded as fonmiidable foes in any tournament. One has only to consider the debate records of the past years to understand this predominate feeling. --i-an Page 55 NTHE ORANGE The Independence Student The Independence Student is the weekly newspaper of the two high schools and the junior col- lege. First published in 1923, The Student has had an interesting history, which carried it through several stages of development, in- cluding: the establishment of a high school journalism classg the forming of a printing department, which makes the paper and the annual strictly school projectsg and the addition of a ieporting class to the junior college curri- culum, so that adequate repre- sentation is given to each of the three schools which occupy Nees hall and the high school building. As a side issue a mimeographed junior high school paper, The Junior High News , was published weekly during the first semester this year, but it was discontinued because of lack of time. Each year the high school journalism class is represented at the annual conference of the Kan- sas Interscholastic Press Associa- tion, sponsored by the University of Kansas, and Independence in- variably has the largest delegation present, with the exception of towns near Lawrence. This year the delegates included Mary Lou A N D B L A C K STUDENT STAFF Black, Breisch, Crosby Decker, Dreisbach, Emry Gray, Holden, Holdren Hubler, James, Keener Black, Betty Breisch, Barbara Decker, Ruth Emry, Kay Gray, Frank Holden, Dorothy Hubler, Virginia James, Martha Kimble, Herbert Lodge, Jim McKinley, Bud Miller, Edwin Robinson, Jane San- ford, Jo Walker, Bud Waits, and the instructor, H. C. Brown. The agricultural policy of rota- tion of corps was practiced this year in the selection of editors, with Paul Rogers as the first ed- itor-in-chief. He was foll-owed by VYfc'-1934-sfo Page 56 ,ST H E O R A N G E STUDENT STAFF Kimble Lodge, McKinley Purtell, Raglin, Robinson R S f d S our ogers, an or , eym Trotter, Walker, Waits Frances Holdren, Jo Walker, Mar- garet Trotter, Vera Keener, Vir- ginia James, and Mary Lou Black, all of whom first served apprent- iceship as associate editors. Sport editors during the year Were Joe Seymour and Bud Walts. Staff members who retained their posi- tions throughout the year were: Herbert Lodge and Jim McKinley, advertising managers, Martha Kimble and Jane Sanford, circula- N D BLACK -,. tion managers, Barbara Decker, business managerg and Kay Gray, exchange editor. In addition to publishing the weekly paper, the Student staff this year aided greatly in the re- organization of the high school's alumni ass-ociation, which had been inactive for several years. An alumni column was conducted each week, in which appeared the rolls of all the graduating classes as far back as 1918. Beside the name of each graduate appeared his or her present address and oc- cupation, as nearly as could be learned. A permanent, systematic record also was made of all the graduates since the founding of Independence high school in 1884. Though The Independence Stu- dent entered no contests this year, it is recognized as one of the best school papers in the state. For Whatever success it ha s achived the staff gives full credit to the following people: Marlin F. Reppert, printing in- structor, and his department, with- out the hearty and intelligent co- operation of which the high quality of the publication could not have been maintained. The teachers of the high schools and college, from whom most of the news was secured or by whom its accuracy was assured. The merchants of Independence, who, even before 'the economic recovery had been felt in this city, continued to use The Student as their advertising medium and thus gave it the necessary financial support to make it a self-support- ing project. .,N.,w.1934 -,,, Page 57 THE ORANGE The Girls' Glee Club The Independence high school girls glee club has an enrollment of fifty this year. The club is divid- ed into three sections: The first and second sopranos and the altos. These sections have nearly the same number of girls in each. The director is Miss Irene Reid, and the accompanist is Marjorie Smith, The officers of the glee club this year are: president, Barbara Decker, secretary, Frances Hold- eng and treasurer-librarian, Ber- nice Cutler. The club meets every day fourth hour. It is usual to have smaller sing- ing groups form from the club, but this year only one has appeared on a program. This is the nonette. It has sung on several occassions, both in school and out of it, and it has been on exchange programs to other schools. A N D BLACK The class Work -of the club is singing in trios or in sextets. This brings to attentions the best talent of the class. The girls sing unac- companied most of the time. Miss Reid chooses clever, light, and difficult compositions to train the girls in the club. The study of music is offered. The club is pri- vileged to hear good music in victrola records of light and heavy operas, such great violinists as Mischa Elman and Fritz Kreislerg operas or songs sung by artists of fame as: Marion Talley, Schu- mann Heink, Enrice Caruso, Galli- Curci, and Tetrazzinig and many of the best modern orchestras and bands. Shortly before Christmas, the glee club sang Christmas carols in the school assemblies. They also sang, under the supervision of Miss Reid, at the homes of sev- eral people, the Tuesday night be- fore Christmas.

This organization sang on the assembly program Armistice Day and in various choruses of the college operetta, An Old Spanish Custom . The club this year has only nine- teen members, the smallest number since the club was organized, but it is composed of a well trained group of high school vocalists. Due to the small number and lack of parts, it was impossible for the club to compete in the music con- tests or choose a quartet this year. Careful selection of vocies by the director has brought forth a colorful blend of tone quality. Their excellent training is due A N D BLACK-N largely to the untiring and ever- willing efforts of Miss Reid. Cooperation was the watchword during the whole year, and effici- ency was attained. Many have been the times when the boys have been forced to control their wrath when a ten-or or lowly bass cracked an old gag, revised. The personnel according to parts is as follows: First tenors, Chester Burns, Paul Goodwin, Donald Hart, Homer McCalla, Ro- bert Noel, and Kenneth Searsg second tenors, Herbert Lodge, Winfred Nash, Joe Seymour, Dean Scott, and Donald Warreng bari- tones, Marvin Baker, Allan Can- non, Brice Goodwin, Edwin Silger, and Robert Weber, basses, Thur- man Hunt, Frank Sicks, and Claude Wingard. Although many of the members of the various sections are grad- uating this year, Miss Reid an- nounces that the prospects of an efficient and talented organiza- tion for the coming year are promising.

Page 61 v HTHE ORANGE The National Honor Society High sch-ool students all over the United States may be seen wearing a small gold pin, symbolic of membership in the honor or- ganization for high schools. The purpose of the National Honor Society is to challenge students to greater efforts in scholarship, leadership, service, and character, the four highest standards that can be obtained during a student's high school career. Scholarship is the first require- ment, but one who is merely a stu- dent is apt to be what we common- ly call a bone. According to the rules of selection, the member should be the ideal high school boy or girl, and so the founders of the society added the three other requirements. The ability t-o lead others in school activities will later assert itself in greater fields of life and cannot be encouraged too much. Leadership may also be defined A N D BLACK M as dependability. One who can be depended upon to do a task after being asked once and who does not have to be reminded is truly a good leader. Service to your classmates, your school, and your community also looms high in the world of suc- cess. The last, but certainly not the least, requirement is character. A great character is the greatest achievement in any life. 'The pos- session of a good character is life's achievement. Having attain- ed these four qualities, one is sure to have a Well-rounded and worth- while life. The National Honor Society is an outgrowth of the Phi Beta Sigma, founded by Dr. Owen of Chicago normal college in 1900. The local chapter was organized eleven years ago under the super- vision of Mr. W. L. Friley. Miss Arvilla Jarrett is the present sponsor. The following officers were elected for the year '33-'34: pres- ident, Raymond Arringtong vice- president, Winifred McCoy, sec- retary, Virginia Gilmoreg and treasurer, Virginia James.

Its purpose is to help girls find the best in life, spiritually, men- tally, and physically. The success of the club this year has been due largely to the able direction of the sponsors, Miss Gray and Miss Morrison. Meetings were held every two weeks. Various topics of practical interest were discussed. Miss Morrison and four girls attended the mid-winter confer- ence held at Chanute. They profit- ed greatly by the inspirational meetings and brought home many new ideas for the advancement of the club. The organizatoin has served the community in many ways. At Thanksgiving a basket was pre- pared and sent to a needy family. AND BLACK M At Christmas time a party was given for about forty of the under- privileged children, at which each received a gift. Gifts were also sent to the children of the Mex- ican settlements. A group of the girls sang Christmas carols at the annual program which the Mex- icans give. With this social ser- vice project, friendships were formed with some of the Mexican girls. They made scrap books which were given to the children in the hospital. They prepared potted flowers that were taken to the shut-ins at Easter time. Be- sides this, they colored eggs which were sent to the needy children. The Mother-Daughter banquet, given jointly with the Y. W. C. A., was one of the big events of the year. Once each month cabinet meet- ings were held with individual members acting as hostesses. After each business session a social hour was enjoyed. Regular monthly committee meetings were sponsored by various women of the Y. W. C. A.

The members have the avowed purpose, To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and com- munity, high standards of Christ- ian character , imbeded in their hearts and strive to stand up to it. The Hi-Y tends to develop the four sides-the physical, mental, spirit- ual, and service-of the character. The Hi-Y has many and varied activities during the year. Tourna- ments are held in the following sports and games: swimming, golf, old jack, checkers, ping-pong, and tennis. Metals are given for the winners. For social activities the club has a mixer in the gym, watermelon parties, W i e n n e r riasts, and hikes. AN D BLACK In order to stimulate interest in the sports, the club sold pencils with the football schedules of both high school and college printed on them. The club also had football score cards with the names of the high sch-ool and college players printed on them, which it dis- tributed at all games. As a service to the school, the Hi-Y maintains a book exchange and junior and senior high school books are resold to the students. The officers of the club are: Raymond Arrington, president, Elmer Braden, vice-president, Jack Duckworth, secretary, Tom Baehl, treasurer, Junior Hatcher, program chairman, Tom Yoe, Bible Study chainman, Edward Davis, service chairman, and Fred Beal, publicity chairman.

It is affiliated with other similar organizations in high schools and colleges throughout the world. The purpose of the Club is two- fold: to encourage interest in and understanding of national and international problemsg and to promote friendship and under- standing between the youth of the nations. During the year several open forums were conducted by Mr. Maust at which the members dis- cussed the problems, benefits, and A N D BLACK broader understandings gained through membership in the organ- ization. Many interesting points were brought forth in these dis- cussions. Throughout the year members of the organization have corres- ponded with students in other countries resulting in a better feeling and understanding be- tween the students. At several meetings the club was honored by guest-speakers from Independence who had lived or traveled abroad. At these meet- ings the customs, habits, and pecularities of the people of Japan, Cuba, Scotland, and Jugoslavia were explained and described.

Its purpose is to bring about a better appreciation of art among students and to give to students who do not take art an opportunity to learn something of the subject. The club also makes it possible for a student who is taking art to work on pr-ojects which may not be included in his regular class work. In previous years the members have usually made individual pro- jects such as leather tooling, enamel placques, and batik work. Also talks have been given to the A N D BLACK club by the members or by outside speakers. But this year the mem- bers voted to make a marionette show. Cinderella , a play suit- able for marionettes was selected and each member was given a character to make. It is hoped that all the marionettes will be finished soon. If there is time before school is out, the play will be presented by the club members. Miss Old, the sponsor of the Daubers' club, has helped much in showing the members how to make the marion- ettes. It is doubtful whether the club will be able to sponsor an art ex- hibit this year as it has done form- erly. Officers for the year were elect- ed at the first meeting of the club. They are: Frances Holdren, pres- identg Mary Louise Aubuchon, vice-presidentg and Doris Doop, secretary-treasurer .

H. Smith in 1924. The membership of this organization is limited to only those who re- ceive letters in the six major sports in which the school com- petes. The sports are as follows: football, basketball, track, tennis, golf, and swimming. Swimming was added to the list as a major sport for the first time this year. Meetings of this organization are held bi-weekly. Each week two members of the club are appoint- ed to present the program for the following week, and by doing so many outstanding programs are presented during these meetings. This group of athletes have had the privilege of hearing many of the outstanding athletic speakers in this part of the state during the past few seasons. When a member fails to present his program when A N D BLACK it is due, there is usually a severe punishment awaiting him. The main feature of this organ- ization every year is the initiation of new members, who have re- ceived their first letter. The in- itiations are held in the spring, after the track season, and all new lettermen of the entire school year are initiated at once. The enforced parades in outlandish costumes are the delight of every student evcept the ones being initiated. Later, trying ordeals, the applica- tions of big, broad paddles by brawny arms, and a big feed top off the ceremony. The other feature that is eager- ly looked forward to by every member is the annual I Club pic- nic. This year the picnic was held at Dewlin's Grove, and about eighty were present. For the past year the officers of the club were: Paul Rogers, pres- identg and Ray Corn, secretary- treasurer. There are twenty-eight members of the I ' Club at the present time. This number will be increased considerably after the closing of the spring sports. I CLUB I' 1 row: Todd, Baehl, Gordon, J. Armsbury, C. Armsbury, Yoe, Condon, Long, Fowler.

Page ' 69 cf- THE ORANGE Football Lettermen PAUL ROGERS, halfback-Su- perlatives are n-ot descriptive en- ough for our honorary captain. He was captain of the Mythical All-Southeast Kansas le a g u e team. Paul was the Nsprinting- est , dashingest player ever to don the moleskins of I.H.S. Team- mates and the crowds never knew just what minute the speed demon was going to dash off a 35-, 55-, or 85-yard touchdown, but they knew it was always a possible threat. Luck to you, Paul, as you continue your successful athletic career just started. LOYAL PATTIN, halfback -- Transferred from the line to the backfield, Loyal earned the reputa- tion -of being a hard fighting half- back. His superior playing in the Turkey Day game against Coffey- ville should always be remember- ed. He will be lost by graduation.

His shoes will be hard to fill next year, as he is a senior. TOM BAEHL, fullback--A hard- driving, blocking fullback, strong on defense and a threat on the offense. Better known as the Rambling Redhead , he has an- other year to play f-or I.H.S. and should play a bang-up game. FRED BEAL, quarterback, Al- though the smallest man on the team, Freddie was sensational as a passer, punter, and a ball lugger. He should play a heads-up game for I.H.S next year. ALFRED TODD, end- Al was the best defensive end on the squad. His ability to snag passes was outstanding when a passing attack was needed. He also played a noteworthy offensive game. Al is a senior.

Page 72 V-N.,-..- ia, 1934 7 THE ORANGE The Football Season Facing the serious question of inexperience, Coach Deane Smith called the first football practice for September 15 and approximate- ly 75 aspirants responded, includ- ing five lettermen. With the first game a few weeks -off, the team was gradually being whipped into shape. The opening game with Moline proved to be a very close affair. Although Independence was in scoring position several times, Moline's stiff defense prevented the Bulldogs from crossing the goal line. In the waning minutes of the game Roger's 25-yard pass to Corn was completed for the only score of the game. The final score was 6 to 0. The first league encounter was with Pittsburg. Although the Bulldogs, led by Rogers, flashed a powerful offensive, they were de- feated by a score of 9 to 0, due mainly to poor handling of the ball. With Rogers clicking off a 33- yard run for a touchdown in the first few minutes of the game, the Bulldogs downedgthe Parsons Vik- ings on their home field 18 to 0. For the sixth time in three years Rogers was called back after making a sensational 40-yard re- turn of a punt. The defeat of Fort Scott here boosted the Bulldogs into second place in the league. The break came when Long recovered the Tigers' fumble and started the Bulldogs on a drive into the enemy's territory. The game end- ed with Independence on the big end of a 25 to 6 score. v-s5--- A N D BLACK On a water-soaked field at Cha- nute, the Yellowjackets defeated the Bulldogs 13 to 0. The use of an aerial attack failed for the Independence team. A crowd of several hundred turned out to see the Yellowjackets avenge last year's defeat. Again the flying feet of Paul Rogers made history, when he scored two touchdowns against Fredonia. Rogers reversed the field on a play to dash 80 yards. The game ended 13 to 0. Smarting under a 7 to 0 score with Sedan at the end of the first half, the Bulldogs came back the third quarter and tied the score on four plays. From then on the game was filled with sensational runs. The entire team played well. In the Columbus game the lone Independence score came when Rogers raced 69 yards down the sidelines. We failed at the extra point and lost the game, 7 to 6. In the Neodesha game the over- confident Bulldogs were almost defeated by the Blue Streaks, but narrowly won by a score of 12 to 7. This was a non-league game. Before a crowd of 2500 the Cof- feyville Golden Tornado staged an upset by defeating the Bulldogs 7 to 6. The game was one of the hardest battles ever fought in Producer park. Although the Cof- feyville team was on the alert for Rogers, he succeeded in making a spectacular dash of 30 yards. Both teams played exceptionally well, but failing to convert the extra point again cost the Bulldogs. At the end of the '33 season 20 men were awarded letters, and of this number 12 will be lost by graduation. Those returning for next year will be Baehl, Beal, Sicks, Yoe, Gordon, Cadwell, J. Armsbury, and McKain. 1934'1 N' Page THE ORANGE The Basketball Season The basketball outlook was any- thing but bright at the beginning of the seasong and although Inde- pendence did not fare so well in league play, they always put up a hard fight. With only one letter- man back, Coach Smith developed a hard fighting team out of green material. The Bulldogs started the season by defeating Caney 33 to 12, taking the lead in the first quarter and keeping it throughout the game. The next game with Neodesha the Orange and Black showed marked improvement and emerged victorious by a score of 28 to 22. The team suffered its first defeat at the hands of Pittsburg in the first league game 35 to 13. The Bulldogs were ahead at the half, but were held scoreless in the last half. In the game with Parsons the Bulldogs met their second defeat of the season. The S.E.K. champ- A N D BLACK ions won the game by a score of 35 to 15. Failing to overcome the first half lead, Independence lost to their old enemy, Coffeyville, 21 to 11. In their second game with Neodesha, the Bulldogs broke their losing streak and trounced their rival to win 42 to 24, Keeping Independence on the defensive most of the game, the Chanute team won 40 to 21. The team was weakened without the services of Yoe or Beal. In the game with Columbus the Bulldogs lost by a point, 18 to 17. The team did well in making free throws. Coffeyville defeated Indepen- dence in their last game by one point, 20 to 19. Independence was eliminated by Pittsburg 38 to 20 in the second round after defeating Cherryvale 26 to 11 in the tournament held in Coffeyville. Letters were awarded to the following six boys: Paul Rogers, Tom Yoe, Frank Sicks, Thomas Baehl, Emmett Condon, Fred Beal, and Bill Sloop. Rogers and Sloop are seniors and will be lost to the team next year. BASKETBALL TEAM Back row: Coach Smith, Rogers, Campbell, Condon, Yoe, Baehl. Front row: Sloop, Sicks, Webb, Stuart, Baker, Beal. Cfif-'- Page 74 1934 -'N' -THE ORANGE Senior H igh Track The completion of the 1933 track season ended the seventh consecutive year that Indepen- dence has remained undefeated in dual meets. Several of the most -outstanding records of the school were broken during the spring meets by the tracksters. The new records established were: the high jump record was raised to 5 feet 1015 inches by Phipps during the interclass meet, Reynolds shattered the jave- lin record by heaving it 176 feet 4 inches, the medlay relay, com- posed of Seymour, Bell, Knight, and Warren, lowered the record to 3:42.25 Warren lowered the 880- yard run record to 2:04.7g and the 880-yard relay, composed of Rog- ers, Cannady, Phipps, and Goodell, lowered that record to 1:34.3. The interclass meet was won by TRACK A N D BLACK the seniors, who totaled 66 points. The juniors were second with 35 points, and the sophomores third with 23 points. The first dual meet was held here with Altamont, and was de- feated by the Bulldogs 985 to 285. The next meet was a quad- rangldr meet held at Neodesha with Independence, Cherryvale, Fredonia, and Neodesha com- peting. Independence was victor- ious with a total of 1055 to Fred- onia, who was second with 255 points. Coach Smith entered five events in the K. U. Relays and won fifth place. On May 3, Independ- ence journeyed to Chanute and again showed their superiority in dual meets by defeating them 96 to 36. On May 6, the entire team was entered in the S.E.K. League meet held at Pittsburg, and the next week entered the regional at the same town, winning second place. At the close of the season eight- een members of the track team were awarded letters.

H. S., it was considered a sport in which only a few people could participate, and consequently it was extremely dif- ficult to obtain sufficient material for a successful team. Since that time golf has probably gained more in popularity than any other sport. In Independence alone three new golf courses have been es- tablished and the number of those who play has increased several hundred. During the past three years, the I. H. S. golfers have Won the S. E. K. league individual and team championships twice. They also have established a record of being undefeated in dual matches for three years. The annual spring tournament got under way quite early this year and nearly twenty golfers turned out for the tournament. This tournament is played the regular hole-play and those con- testants that are successful in reaching the semi-finals and finals are chosen to represent the school in the golf meets. Last year the finals turned out to be a family affair, Charles Armsbury won the school cham- pionship from Junior Armsbury, another of the Armsbury dynasty. This tournament is regularly held at the Independence country club, A N D BLACK IW under the direction of Tom Man- ley, the professional of that club. The bulldogs began their golf season in good order by turning back the Caney team here, April 12. The team met with some diffi- culties but managed to eak out a 7 to 5 victory. The following meet proved equ- ally successfll for the Bulldogs when the Chanute golfers were defeated 11 to 4 by the local team. This was the only match of the year in which the schools were represented by five golfers on each team. The next match proved very dis- astrous to the I. H. S. team and brought to and end the splendid record of the local team of being undefeated for three years. The team that defeated the I. H. S. team was the team from Fredonia, who ran up the score of 10 1-2 to 1 1-2. On Map 6, the S. E. K. league meet was held here for the first time. Parsons was crowned the new champion in both individual and team honors. Independence placed second to Parsons in both events, and l-ost out of the in- dividual honors by only one stroke. Letters were presented to the five members of the team at the season. Those who received the letters were: Charles Armsbury, Junior Armsbury, Frank Sicks, Bill Mitchell, and Vernal Miller. Of these, Charles Armsbury, Bill Mitchell, and Vernal Miller will be ineligible for further competi- tion. Page 76 ' THE ORANGE The Tennis Season The players, who compete for I. H. S. in tennis meets, are de- fending one of the best records ever made by a school in any sport. The output of successful tennis teams by I. H. S. has been a byword among the tennis centers of this section of the state for seven years, I. H. S. has won the singles championship in three state tournaments, and six times in the league tournaments, also the teams have been the doubles champions in five league tourna- ments. Last year proved no exception to this fine record. The tennis teams won 'every meet, which in- cluded the dual meets and the league tournament. The season started with the school tourna- ment, which decided the members of the team. The winners of the doubles were Behrens and Sim- A N D BLACK mons, while Blade won the sing- les. The first meet of the season pr-over very successful for Inde- pendence, when they defeated Caney here, 3 to 0. For the next meet, the teams journeyed to Fre- donia and defeated them, 3 to 0. I. H. S. was again victorious when Fredonia played return match here the following week. This was the only meet during the season in which the high school team lost a point, the score being, 2 to 1. . In the S. E. K. meet held here May 6, Independence carried away all the honors by winning both the singles and doubles championship. Blade won the singles by defeating Hanlon, also a member of the I. H. S. team, and the doubles was won again by Behrens and Simmons, who have established a record by winning this championship for the third consecutive year. Those who were awarded letters at the close of the season were, Blade. Hanlon, Behrens, Goodell, and Simmons, all of who will be lost by graduation.

The AND BLACK 3 final initiation comes with a picnic. The club has a constitution by which it is conducted. Any girl whose grades are not passing is dropped from the club, and a new member is elected. Special effort was taken to pre- pare for the Thanksgiving game with Coffeyville. The campus was decorated by miniature football teams. Posters and banners were on display. Between havles of the game, a spectacular drill was given by our club. Ballons filled with gas were released and sailed away high in the sky. At the close of the football sea- son the club gave a banquet for the football team. Later an enter- tainment was given for the track and basketball teams. The Pep Club wishes to thank Mr. Stevens, the faculty, and their sponsor, Miss Hughes for their co- operation.

Competi- tion between schools was almost entirely abondoned, and intramur- al competition substituted. The idea back of this change was to give basketball training to all who cared for it ,rather than to a small handpicked few who possessed more ability than others. Although the value of competition between schools was recognized, it was be- lieved that more players could be developed under the intramural plan, and that all would be given an equal chance to participate, re- gardless of ability. The success with which the intramural idea was carried out, together with the popularity of this type of com- petition, has practically assured its continuance in the junior high school. At the beginning of the basket- ball season, two leagues were formed. The American league, con- sisting of ten teams, was composed entirely of seventh grade boys. The National league was made up of eighth and ninth grade boys, and included eight teams. During the season, a single round robin schedule was played in each lea- gue, and a t-ournament held at the end of the season. This gave each boy a chance to play in from ten to fifteen matched games, in ad- dition to parctice games. Each team had a distinctive name, and elected a captain for A N D BLACK the season, teams possessed self- colored jerseys as another dis- tinguishing feature. Rivalry be- came quite intense as the season progressed, although at all times a friendly spirit prevailed. The following are the standings of the teams at the end of the sea- son's regular league play. National Leauge Team W L Pct.

These lettermen, Crawford, Knight, Haberly, and McKain for- med the nucleus for a track team which established more school re- cords than any previous Bullpup squad had accounted for in one season. In the first meet of the season, the interclass meet, the combined seventh and eighth grade forces proved to be too much for the ninth grade team, the final count being 122 to 109. This was the first time a ninth grade team had ever failed to win the annual in- terclass meet. Fredonia Junior High next en- gaged the Bullpups in a track meet at Riverside Park, April 8, 1933. Led by John Crawford, the Bull- pups were victorious by a count of 113 to 40. In this meet Crawford established school records in all the events in which he was enter- ed, the 100 yard dash, shot and discus. In a triangular meet with Hum- boldt and Chanute, the Bullpups were far below form in most -of their performances, and placed second behind a nicely balanced Chanute team. In this meet, no outstanding marks were made be- cause of a muddy track. The league meet, the usual cli- max of the Bullpup season, was held in Independence, on May 6. In this final meet, the results were as follows: Chanute 53, Indepen- A N D BLACK dence 49, Humboldt 42M2, Parsons 25, Cherryvale 202 and Fredon- ia 8. As a result of their SG3SOI1,S performance, the following boys were awarded track letters: Mar- vin Baker, Richard Boner, Lou Boys, Hughie Clay, John Craw- ford, Harold Goad, Doyle Haberly, Howard Harper, Bill Knight, Bill Knott, Willie Lyons, Lloyd Mc- Kain, Dick Overfield, Bernard Scott, J.L.

A. was organized under the spon- sorship of Miss Elva Hughes. The local club is a part of the Kansas State High School Athletic As- ociation. The intramural system is used. Organized activities used in this system are volley ball, bas- ketball, swimming, and tumbling. The uniorganized activities are bi- cycling, bowling, coasting, golf, horseback riding, horseshoe pitch- ing, skating Cice or rollerD, tennis, and walking. The Junior G.A.A. belongs to Group I which awards five points an hour for organized activities, and two and one-half points an hour for unorganized activities. Our organization meets every two weeks, at which time a pro- gram is presented. The program A N D BLACK committee is composed of one member from each class. Three awards are given. A felt shield with the letters G.A.A in brown and g-old for the winning of four hundred points is the first award. The second award is the school letters in the school colors for the winning of an additional five hundred points. The last award is a gold pin of a sunflower design with the letters G.A.A. in- scribed on it for the total of fifteen hundred points. In order to obtain these em- blems, one must have besides the points, passing grades in all sub- jects, sixteen weeks of health charts, a successful heart exam- ination by a certified physician, and a good sportsmanship record. The money the G.A.A has is obtained through candy sales held twice a month.

Vgf- V AND BLACK' One at a Time Many ministers could, from per- sonal experience, tell of strange names bestowed upon infants at their baptism, but few could equal the following story recently told by the Bishop of Sodor and Man. A mother, who was on the lookout for a good name for her child, saw on the door of a building the word Nosmo.,' It attracted her, and she decided that she would adopt it. Some time later, passing the same building, she saw the name King on another door. She thought the two would sound well together, and so the boy was baptised t'Nosmo King Smith. On her way home from the church where the baptism had taken place, she passed the building again. The two doors on which she had seen the names were now -closed together, and what she read was not Nosmo King, but No Smok- ing.
