Gliding smoothly between friendly banks, two lazy rivers wend their way until they meet by chance in some appropriate place where they are wed and go as one . . , In this peaceful, quiet little town the inhabi- tants proceed with blase spirits on the even tenor of their separate ways. This serenity is broken only on Saturday nights when the farmers, residents of the distant plains, come to town with rattl-ey cars of anceint vintage for the next week's groceries and the cream check. Junction City, this Ba.bbit re- presentative of middle western pro- vincialism, proudly boasts of aboom- ing cheese factory, a speed cop. and several unused street car tracks. It is here in this metropolis that stands that collosal structure of higher learning, the high school. It is pleasantly situated among elm trees and grass, The velvety carpet of green is broken only by white stretch- es of sidewalks and boys and girls cafmly ignoring Keep OIT the Grass signs. To this building of red brick and cement the parents of Junction City high school students send their hostages to fortune in order that the faculty will have something with which to occupy its time. Across from this center of educa- tion reposes Fegan Field, wher-e ath- letic contests take place. Deserted it will lie during the summer, waiting' for the time when lt will be over- run once again with more or less victorious representatives of the dear old alma mammy, kicking ye pig- skin about. It is in this environment that the younger set imbibes that culture and learning so necessary to suc- ceis. Under the sheltering roof of this Big House willing and unwilling boys and girls learn the Latin de- clensions which Miss Moles imparts to them, and they find out that Miss Cormany isn't nearly the holy ter- ror she is reputed to be. On the dusty field across the way these same young- intellectuals learn the funda- mentals of the ran-ran game, One enters as a seventh grader and by work of an unseen power emerges -a senior. Although at times one wonders what it is all about, one is told that it all goes with the gaining of a so-called education. Because the moon is made of green cheese fthe same hue as the fresh- menl and because September follows August in the march of time, but mainly because Junction City stu- dents C?l have an eager thirst for knowledge along about the hot month of September, school starts! So-when the old swimming hole looked most inviting. and when it was just warm enough for one to suc- cumb to a languid drowsiness soon after lunch, the Board of Education issued it call to battle on Sept. 14, and the school year of '33-'34 be- gan. What a year it has been! We've all had a few headaches as a result, but we've dosed ourselves with aspirin, drunk a' couple of bottles of ST37 and are feeling much better. thank you! Who does not recall the Hrst day of school last fall? CEditors note: That was the beginning of our numerous headachesi. The newly ac- quired seventh graders zipped and tore around the halls of this osten- tatious erection with aclutching fear in their hearts that something terrific would befall them, if they were a second or two late for next class. How they wielded and wended their way in and out the regiment of up- perclassmen that came charging down the hall toward them! The lowly freshmen of the year be- fore returned to school Just a little- less-lowly sophomore. The former junior became one of the big noises of the place-a senior. Only afew post- graduates remained of the class which so triumphantly bade farewell the spring before. Seniors. who were truly nothing more than juniors who acted as though they were sophomores, tried, oh! so hard to be sedate, worldly wise. and dignified, For the first couple of weeks they put up a big front and had almost everyone con- vinced of their seniority. However, it didn't last long, and the seniors are yet overgrown juniors who act as though they are sophs. Upon recalling outstanding events, it would seem as though the year - stands that colossal structure of higher learning Our Ima ater 15061 - 'main 3 The . Q .xii yy, . U XM A Sky Line Junction City, 'Babbitt' representative of mid-west provincialism - has been full of the unusual with little of the usual. Football games and pep rallies followed closely upon the heels of the opening of school. The box social and Thanksgiving, to say nothing of the Hi-Y Conference held in cur city occurred almost as quick- ly. Enrollment figures were compiled at the start of school and 911 educa- tion aspirants were to be found with- in the walls of this structure. Also --more of those persons called seniors were discovered lurking in the halls than had ever been before. The activity ticket sales campaign was carried on for a week and closed with alarger percent of the students owning them than the year preced- ing. Us is possible that the depres- sion is over?7 The price remained the same, however. Purchasers were stuck 82.85 for the little piece of yellow cardboard with the cute pink stamps. The Pep Club announced through the pages of the Blue Jay that it would be a more masculine or- ganization than ever before. The members also claimed that they would sport entire new uniforms. And they did, too-about the begin- ning of the basketball season. Fast people-these pepsters! The football eleven, captained by James Rupe, who we think was in- spired by Swede Olsen singing You've Got To Be A Football Hero, jostled the little pigskln about dur- ing the season and managed in the ubrlngln' home the bacon scrapple' of the North Central .Kansas League to make away with second place honors. A number of those on the squad hfpe to be associated with a sheep- skin soon, so that they might come back next year and play on the Alumni team. Although Coach says they will be missed next year, he assures us that the team will manage to struggle along the way and not plunge into chaos without them. ,And speaking of football! Fix your pair of orbs upon the picture of the entrance to Fegan Field to which the students gaily sprinted from the halls of learning and watched the home battles, Look closely at the box office and don't try to climb the fence! For some reason unknown to us, the 33 from last years white- washing' job of the seniors still re- mains. Let's all give 15 boos tthere are no officials around now? for the departing senior class, because they didn't change it to a 34 . What's the matter-couldn't you swipe any whitewash? However, certain senior boys will long remember the whltewashing epi- sode that took place in our neigh- boring clty of Chapman at their own hands-the night before the annual Jay-Irish Turkey Day skirmish-and also the pleasant little chat they had with Johnnie Law himself, Ah! Life ls seldom dull. The J on Grand View hill, al- though not in the immediate vicinity of the school, has become during the years a distinct part of the spirit of J, C. H. S. There trudge the lowly freshmen every year armed with old brooms, buckets. and quantities of whitewash. Slowly creeping like ants up the hill east of town. these fresh- men, spurred on by the incessant orders of the seniors, make their way to renew this letter, constructed of rocks, with whitwash. This year the frosh dutifully climb- ed the hill and scrubbed the J until it gleamed in the afternoon sunlight. The event was looked upon by the seniors with outward amuse- ment but inward sorrow. They were just beginning to realize that their high school days were waning. The fact was just dawning upon them that four eventful years had passed since they were in the role of the freshies whltewash armed with brooms and journeying up to the J to do their duty. The J is a part of system which remains throughout the school years. The students come and go. The faculty arrives and departs. Buildings be- come obselete a-nd are torn down, New ones are erected. But every year members of the frehsman class go up to the J, laborously clean it, and make it gleam anew for the forthcoming year. The picture which you see of this renowned insignia letter was taken by Frank Durland, one of the photo- graphers for the book. Frank risked his life and spent time and money in obtaining this excellent airplane view of it. Good work, Frank! It's a mighty iine picture. Thanks a lot! The atmosphere of the school would have become quite monotonous had it not been shattered by the clfangor of wedding bells. Mr. Ray Heady, maestro isomenmes genial! of 203, took the fatal step, deserted the already diminishing ranks of the Last Man's club and brought home ai blonde to rule the roost. Congratu- lations, Mr, Heady. we all enjoyed the school the same 4 Zlgnfn - 'lllllniu the candy. Mr. C. K. Ward! It's your turn. Late last fall conference bells start- ed ringingg and so the two senior Girl Reserve sponsors. Miss Elsie Kaden and Miss Margaret Bloome, bundled their cabinet Knot the kitchen onel into the Humphrey and Morton limousines and zipped up to Minnea- polis, the town with a lovely city park and a bandstand. fAsk some of the girls. They know all about it.J When they arrived upon the scene of the convention, tney were told that Something Is, Hiddeng Go and Find It! Immediately the girls began searching frantically for it. 'Nhat did they find? Well-that's a deep dark secret they won't reveal. A week later, the editors of the Blue Jay., accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Ray Heady, attended the news- paper conference at the University of Kansas. Wonder what they learned ' Joan of the Nancy Lee, an oper- etta directed by Miss Ma.ry Wilson, was presented on Nov. 14 and 15. Mary Louise Heavey, youngest girl to have a lead in a high school oper- etta, played the title role. Hoover Rupert, senior, took the opposite part. Hoover' is very charming-in a pirate costume. And then the Hi-Y Clubsl with the aid of Bruce Tallman, state Y. M. C, A. secretary, the school board, Principal Vineyard. and the fairer sex of the school, staged the state I-li-Y Convention here. How the girls beamed and how their boy friends steamed when the lads from the 34 different towns kerplunked themselves in our fair city on that certain Fri- day afternoon. What a week-end that turned out to be! For two days 350 young swains swarmed the city. looked things over, Went to meetings, learned all about Adventurous Liv- ing In This Age, filled their address bttoks, returned home-and then again everything was quiet for a While. No sooner had football season come to an end, and members of that noble activity were leading Charlie's renowned horse back to the stable, than did Coach issue the call to the maple court and basketball season began. The first string quintet of hoop hitters, with the support of some mighty good reserves, came through it all with colors flying-a successful season to their credit. To be exact the Blue Jays won the league championship for the second straight year. A new form of stu-dent government in the school 'was introduced this year. The Student Councilr as it is called. was instituted to replace the form-er Stud-ent Enterprise Associa- tion, more commonly called the S. E, A., which had become only an unwieldy group of uninterested mem- bers. The Student Council is thought to have eliminated to a certain extent the inefficiency which was prevalent in th-e former group. The new govern- ing body is composed of the presi- dents of the four upper classes and the Hi-Y and Girl Reserve clubs as well as representatives from The Blue Jay and The Pow Wow. Principal Jerry J. Vineyard and Mr. N. W. Patterson are sponsors of the organi- zation. .An all school cast took the parts of th-e play The Clean Up, which was directed by Miss Ethel Hinds, dramatics coach. Mildred Saulmon and Lester Bowles headed the list as chief floor scrubbers. Then cam-e Christmas vacation with all its exhilarating fun, which lacked only snow to make the season complete. For a week an-d a half students and faculty alike forgot all the trials of the classroom and found how great it felt not to have to rise in time to scurry off to school. But all good things must come to an end and everyone soon went back to school Where semester and 6-weeks quizzes awaited their arrival. The memory of Christmas, and in truth of the whole school year, is touched with sadness at the thought of the untimely death which came to Mr. Robert K. Heald, instructor of Spanish and vocations, Dec. 29. following an appendicltis operation. Mr. Heald also was the person who laid the foundation for second place honors in the N. C. K. L. debate tournament. Since Mr. Heald had been here he had served as debate coach. His work was carried on by Mr, Carrol K. Ward and Mrs. Bertha Miller, who substituted for Mr. Heald following his death. After the second semester began the school settled down to a long and hard grind during the uneventful months which usually precede the coming of spring, when renewed acti- vity ls forthcoming. However, the months that -'iid fol- low held many interesting and excit- ing happenings desplte the prospect of nothing doing until graduation time. The groundhog saw his shadow on Feb. 2 and scampered back into hibernation, hurling at the vicinity a threat of six more weeks of winter weather. The groundhog's promise ran true to form., for Junction City scon received the heaviest and best snow during the whole winter. Snow! Snow! Beautiful Snow! It's snow use denying the opportunities that presented themselves with the snow! Bob-sledding parties soon be- came innumerable, To make things all the better, ai perfecny geongeous moon persented itself most every night, while the blanket of white was yet on th-e ground. Ice-skating was in order along with bob-sledding: and boys and girls soon appropriated every available river, lake, or stream for this sport. More Was widened, stretched, and scraped.

Then too, the snow broke all records of tardies and absences on that certain day late in February, when the office force was completely swamped with names of those who couldn't quite make it. An average of about eight from every class were either absent or tardy the first day of the .big snow storm. Snowballing was somewhat quelled when Principal Vineyard decreed that such would not be tolerated, an hour in detention being made the penalty for any number of cubic inches of snow thrown. Ah, Mr. Vineyard. It was so much fun to hear those girls yell. Oh! Well. Life is just. full of cruel disappointments. Through the functions of the CWA, new bleachers on the north ride of the gym wene constructed. Everyone liked the idea of additional bleachers except possibly the juniors. who had just that much more space to conceal in decorating for the junior-senior banquet. Also the athletic field was widen- ed stretched and scraped through the Civil Works project. Those young men who so gaily sprint around the field and are called track men now have much more room in which to rtretch their legs. Are they happv! All during this time the nernbers of the editorial staff of the Pow Wow rztruvgled valiantly with the dummy of the book, wrote copy .mtil the week small hours of the 'nonrinQ. peeked awav on typewriters. and all in all. at last, their efforts are ic- flected in this book. As the ice and snow melted and winter suddenly turned into spring with all its attractions. roller skates soon started whirring and seniors and freshmen alike participated in this enjoyable sport. Almost any of those warm spring evenings one could see groups of .boys and girls trying their luck at skating and seemingly enjoying it. At that time also v. as the moon on duty. Spring at last announced its en- trance and the thoughts of the seniors began to turn toward gradu- ation and some of them began to strdy a trifle-just in case. But bev- fcrc we get the seniors off our lands. let us try to recall a few of the events which brought with them the u ual hub-bub of affairs that goes before the last rit-es for the seniors. As commencement suddenly loomed up out of the haze that has sur- rounded it for four years for some tfor others longerl and stood almcst ietealrrd. the days became warm and languorous. Those certain few rtu- dents woh usually have adeslrc to put into their craniums every fact that is contained in their textbooks, fell by the wayside with the others and sub- mitted, for awhile at leastl to the spell of spring fever. The juniors, who for many weeks had shrouded themselves with an air of mvstery about their annual blow- out for their upperclassmen, finally cave way and ushered the seniors into the gym Where complete surprise was for some. while others 'the old meanieslb knew exactly what was awaitng them. However, the juniors and the seniors had lots of fun struttim' their new togs and pulling each ot.her's hair. And say. bv the wav. if any of the silverware is missing. page Barbara Humphrey.

Today this long-awaited publication makes it debut into polite and im- polite society. while the editor and the rest of the staff goes into hid- ing.

And thus the '33-'34 school era. ccmrs to a close. The passing of this school year to the low-er class- men means but another link added, to be replaced by the following more premising term. To the seniors it means the completion of the chain they started manv years ago. when they entered school for the first time cs a mere first grader. But whatever its significance. it has surely held at least a few un- forgettable happineases for all of us, And soon after the stream of humanity pours out of the doors for the last time 'till next fall. when a majority will return. the building will be closed. halls will be silent and echo to the slightest sound.

Upper Classmen make their debut as the year ends. On a certain September morning four eventful years ago, Junction City awoke to what lt thought was the usual opening of school. True enough, school was opening and everyone was bidding a sorrowful farewell to summer, yet looking to- ward the days to follow with anti- cipation-all, however, scurrying to school. But little dld anyone realize the significance of this one fact. Scattered thoughout that particular group making its way toward the red brick edifice ln the 300 block on 9th and 1.0th streets, were members of the present senior class, who were about to shake off the shackles of the 8th grade and enter fresh as a daisy into the ranks of the freshman class. The scene changes now and we flnd this same class by some hook or crook ready to receive its walking papers from the Board of Education, who says tlrc class has been re- tained long enough and the members should be released to strike out in the world for themselves. And that is what they are going to do-some to sharpen pencils ln papa's office and others to pull weeds from mama's flower garden. But before they leave all that has been so dear for otherwisel to them during the last four years, let us tak-e a. look backwards and view the highlights of their school career. The beginning of the freshman y-ear was greatly shadowed by the un- timely death of Jonn Hahn. jr., which occured the summer before. John was an outstanding member or the class and will be remembered by many here. After dutifully cleamng the J on Grand View hill as the seniors had decreed, the freshman class de- cided they had been treated with a. lack of appreciation long enough. Thereupon they agreed among them- selves that they would have to start things going and gain their due re- cognltion-especially from the senl-I lors. Beverly Bauer, at the Jubilee Car- nival sponsered by the Girl R-eserve and Hi-'Y clubs with everything but a ferrls wheel, calmly walked away as Carnival Queen. That an insigni- ficant freshman should receive such an honor was quite at blow to the upper classmen. In the sophomore year of this class's existence, the Blue Jay spon- sered a popularity contest to deter- mine the most popular girl and boy in school by popular vote. Again the class gained prestige by having two of its number receive first and second places as most popular girl-Man garet Coleman winning first and Bev-erly Bauer second. We're stlll wondering how Margaret came out on top in at contest of such a nature! Toward the spring or the soph- omore year' these young sophs ists came to the conclusion that their lot was aterribly unfair one to bear, as they too were not allowed a sneak day as were the seniors. What a life! they lamented. But it went even farther than that! On the morning of the annual senior spree, word spread like wild fire among the soph class, for every- one to m-eet in the city park. We're going to skip! All but a few cn1cken hearted ones. as they were dubbed, convened in the city park shortly after lunch, where controversy follow as to whether they should go, where they should go. and what they would do after they got there. However, every- thing was decided as the one o'clock whistle blared forth. No sooner had it blown than every one of those youthful insurgents, who had been the possessor of good intentions but a few minutes befor-e, was seen running toward school from the park and hoping fervently that he or she wouldn't be late for class. They':'e still wondering what the consequ- ences might have been had they skipped! Page Mr. Vineyard! Last year, the junior play. Who Wouldn't Be Crazy, which had its setting in an insane asylum, was nnesented quite naturally and ably bv fourteen members of the class. Mildred Hovt and James Rune stole the show with their clever character- izations of their comedy roles. Six of the class last year received the distinction of being elected in their junior year into the National Honor Society. They were Henry Barker. Helen Bell, Mlargaret Cole- man, Pauline Kramer, Susan Mor- ten. and Mary Pechin. Scott Cam and Paul Edwards are the only two boys of the class to be elected into the National Athletic Scholarship Society during their junior year. Did they count your Latin grades in on that, Scottie? '?J.2'll bet our last devaluated dollar tif we had a dollar! that they didn't. That's all right, Case, You're a great athlete. Oh, yes, yes! And you too, Paul. But when it comes to that well known art of arguing things outs, Henry Baker, Susan Morton, and Hoover Rupert seem to have the right technique. Susan and Henry are veterans of the forensic .team of the school, having debated on the team last year that tied for first place with Manhattan ln the North Central Kansas League. Again this year Susan and Henry with 'loover represented J. C. H. S. in the league meet and won second place. Henry tied with a Clay Center boy for the honor of being the best debater in th-e league. In the-' district tourna- ment-hurrah-the. team won first place. In athletics, a goodly number who have participated are seniors. A1- though many of them do not look like the Greek athletes of yore, their girl friends love 'em just the same and think they're great guys. Of the eighteen boys who lettered ln football, thirteen were seniors. Among the veterans on the team were Captain Jim Rupe, Riley, Lang- vardt, and Peterson. The hoop-hitting letterman of the maple court include eight seniors. S. Case and Shorty McKellar are the old timers of the team. Mc- Kellar in his junior year threatened to surpass the high point scoring record his brother Don and Kenneth Shane, '31, hold jointly, coming with- in a few points of lt. In their senior years Shorty and Case showed up well ln basketball, Shorty for scor- ing and Scott for all-around play- ing. , Believe lt or not. the senior class has always rated failrry high in the state scholarship contest. In the sophomore Year of the class's career, Mary Pechin won a hrst place ln World History and Helen B611 a third in that same subject. When the oon- test came along during their junior year, Mary won a fourth place, this time in American History. Helen and Marv in this same contest ti-ed for fourth place in Sociology. Smart gals, this Helen and Mary! A group of seven senior boys were called into the office every Monday and Wednesday mornings by Princi- pal Jerry J.

But Whoa! Hold everything! We now come upon the distinguish'- erl members themselves. all present save for Mary Hurd, Floyd Shelton. and Fulton Britt. Fulton told us in a moment of confidence that he didn't want his p'cture in this book, because if he did. all the fair young damscls of the school would absolutely pester him to distraction until they hhd wheedled an autographed copy from him. But never mind, Fulton. Just member Clark Gable has his troubles. too. Here are the rest of them, how- ever, Perhaps they aren't bothered as Fulton is. Have you heard?

Did anyone ever see MYRNA HLBLLRLY hurry? Well. Murna has p1etty black hair and lives at Fort Riley. She and Marie Acker are great. friends. LUCY HEER is that little maid who works in the office last hour. She takes typing and you should see her fingers dance. We listened the other day and we heard her playing Who'sI Afraid of the Big Bad for- Wolf? And here Dona Eustacia Mercedes Maria Y Pilar De La Montana, better known to us as MILDRED HO'YT.

Marcella was outstanding in her part in that. JENNETTE KEIRR- has a whole long list of activities--dramatics. journalism. glee club. and typing. Do you ever read This and That About Here and There in the Blue Jay? Well, Jennette Writes it. You should :ee how Kerr pulls downs the in- ches in journalism with her renown- ed glee club stories. This dark curlywhaired lass is EUNICE KING. Eunice takes typing and she's good, too. Don't you never, never let anybody tell you she's not, neither. AIJELAIDE KI-RKLAND is that amusing little girl who always writes up girls intramurals ior the Blue Jay. She's made chatter columns several times this year. She takes American history, too. HORACE KOEPKE beionsg to that famous fraternity. The Knights of the Road.

A good little girl is PAULINE KRAMER .Paul1ne's treasurer in Girl Reserve. She takes typing and Ameri- can history. She is business manager of the Blue Jay staff, and according to Mr. Heady, is a mighty good one. She's not slow, either, when it comes to dictation in shorthand.

He's probably blushing right now as he reads this. He played a mighty good game of basketball. but he didn't say much about it, did hc? SUSAN MORTON-Journalism. de- b?te, and dramatics are her subjects. She was service chairman in Girl Reserve. She says she's Scotch. Irish. German. French. and Swiss. That explains everything - except that she's a mighty sweet girl-a little hard to get acquainted with. but nevertheless. mighty nice. Cheerleading. The Clean-Up. journalism, glee club and German measles recall ARTHUR O'DON- NELL. He was in the operetta. too- stuttered. You remember. He must be a eqood boy, 'cause we couldnt iind anv dark secret in his past. CARMEN OLSON-is a scream. Frervbodv tnearlvi caiis her Swede. She's one of those girls who take football seriously. D0n't you think she has a pretty good reason. though? Football captains don't come one's way every day. but they do Swedes Ask her and she'd say, I'll take vanilla. ADA MARGOT OLSSON-Glce club and dramatics go to her credit. We could say more about her lf we knew her better. but. folks. Ada Margot is hard to get acquainted with. A shy lassie. she WILLIAM ORTBFRG wants to know how he can grow taller. After much studv and research we sueeest that he use some curtain Stretcliers. Willie is pretty popular with the freshmen. Maybe they can't tell him from the rest on account of his size. William turned in some plenty wood journalism stories toward the end of the year. Nice work, Willie. Siy.

It's rumored that his carp and gown cost him 52.00 instead of 31.25, because of the extra material needed for them. We never have found out for sure, though. Tut won't tell us. Here's JOSEPHINE PETERSON. his sister. She's got red hair, too. Josephine is advertising manager on the Blue Jay staff and takes typing and shorthand. Oh, yes, Josephine's in G, R., too. HENRY PLATT! Everybody calls him Hank. The other day we heard Henry say he was glad he didn't know he was good looking because good looking students who know they ar-e good looking are always spoiled. SIDNEY PLATT, here, is Hank's brother. He played football and takes orchestra and dramatics. Sidney is going to enter a literary f?l career- write fo rmoney! To whom are you going to write, Sidney? To be al high school secretary is OPAL POOLE'S ambition. Opal is learning how, too, by her work in the office during study hall. Her acti- vities are Girl Reserve and intra- murals. She's a dark-haired, dark- eyed lass. Dark-eyed, brown-haired JOSE- PHINE PROSS is an inmate of Ward 324. Jo:-ephine takes typing- and shorthand, Somebody told ug that her accuracy was magnificus. LENA RAGO-Athletics are Lena's dish. For four years she's been out- stending. You know, we heard the other day that Lena had a terrific, but se'dom displayed temper. A French dancing instructor-JAY RETGHLEY. A handsome .blond he is. Glee club and intramuralsl are his activities. Bookkeeping' is no obstacle for Jay, either. 1P. S, Mr. Ward didn't say that, though.J WAYNE CREDJ RILEY is another of those big, red-headed football players. He plays bask-etball. too. What a man! Wonder if he's Demo- crat or Republican. Well, anyway he played the part of the politician in the senior play, To the Ladies, to perfection. Wayne doens't Look like at crooner, but he warited a mean t'toon in th-e operetta, boy'.s quar- tet and in various other places. ARLENE ROBERTS came here last year from down South. You know that Place where King Cotton reigns. She and her sister are almost inseparable. She was another of Miss Hind's worries, being Mrs. Kincaid in the senior Udramm-er. LEAH MAE ROBERTS was report- ed to have been engaged when she came here last year. but little is known of its authenticity. Take off the specs. Leah Mae. so the audience can see what color your eyes are! LUCILLE ROESLER is just ano- ther farrmer gal-but, oh-everyone lik-es Lucille, even if she does play some kind of ar horn, or something. She's had romances with sundry boys in her time. PAULINE ROMESBURGVS ambi- tion is to be a nurtz-oh, pardon me -a nurse. Pity the poor patients. However, Pauline is a sweet soul. JAMES RUPE - Butch - Jim - or whatever you want to call him- led or chased the football team to its several victories Cwe won't men- tion the lossesl this year. His non- chalance in the all-school play, The Clean-Up was truly surprising in one so young. He wasn'r, a had poli- tical boss. at that. HOOVER RUPELRT is at ladies man. He has about twenty girls on his correspondence list. I-Ie sharpen- ed pencils for the Pow Wow staff all winter. He helped to direct the noises issuing forth at various athletic activities Knot the booingb. Hoover's a crack debater, too. You've got to hand it to him where that is con- cerned. IDA RUPERT is a sister of the r-edoubtable Hoover. She's been lett- ing her hair grow the past year. Good luck, Ida. Ida's a nice quiet girl. but you never can tell, MILDRED SAIULMON is another who aspired to be able to let down her hair and weep. She can do it, too, if she ever feels time urge to be hysterical outside of the all-school play. Her efforts were truly astound- mg. DON SHANE looks like A1 Capone, ri eil twiki... 13 1 1 gf.. P Barbour Browne Hamilton Nearguard Oliver in this bird's-eye view, at least. There should be a sign, Don't tease the animals hung on him. He's harmless enough when he's in a good humor, but the management is not responsible to patrons, so don't stir him up. Look, out Don, the goblins'll get you. ROBERT SHOFFNER was the northeast by th-e southwest corner in another version of the age-old tri- angle. He got to town. though, in spite of muddy roads. Give the little b-fy a gr-eat big hand, folks. Come on. Bob, tak your bow. CARL SMYTHE-or Smith. as he sometimes writes when in al forgetful mood--threw his hip out of joint fwatch out th-erei cheerleading. was well cast when plaecd in the role of Chester, the pest , in the senior play. EDNA JANE SMITH has 'fed hair. iWith a name like Smith you ne-ed some distinctionj She's not a pigskin kicker, however. Jane says in the first place and more or less often- er than anyone else in the American history class. GLAUYS SMITH has a cute smile. Wonder if she and all the other Smiths in the world are any relation. You wonder awhile. I'm tired. GECNEVIEVE SMITH-another one -was a whiz on the basketball court until she moved away. Kinda' left the Lillies in a hole. RICHARD SNYDER is the beautv of the senior class. Richard played football and swiped ice-cream as extra-curricular activities. Several people would like to catch him at the latter sport some time. BEVERLY STEADIVDALN must have joined the Book-of-the-Month club. Or rather, the girl of the month association. He falls in love with a different person each month. Stand in line, girls, and don't push. Oh, thete fickle men! LEE STEVENS looks as if he had lost his last friend. Did your dog run away? Or maybe the cat ate your canary. Cheer up, Lee, some of us still love you. EVELYN STIERS is not-ed for her long wind-ed. American history floor talks. She used to talk far, far into the night-without saying a whole lot, either She wears oangs, too. whenever she has time to curl them. MARY SULLIVAN is a whiz on the basketball court-when she isn't too weak from laughing to stand up. Mary is one of the best-natured girls in school. She can sing, too. RICHARD SWENSSON'S one am- bition ls to be an Admiral in the United States Navy. Aye, aye, sir. His floor talks in American history are also noteworthy. He once said. The man traded a gold mine for a bottle of whisky that killed nine men in three hours and disabled another who smelled the cork. JAMES TAYLOR looks very effem- inat-e in this picture. He really isn't so bad. however. James seems fated to have been a big noise. He was a cheerleader during the athletic season and a toastmaster in the senior play. FLOYD WILEY is a tough guy. Yea Bo! He played the part of a truckman in the aforementioned senior production. He uraws plenty good pictures, too. BETTY WILSON says, How'm I doin'? Not bad, Betty. She can braid her hair around her head now. have you noticed? So long, Betty, see you at FYower's. MARGARET YORK never says much about herself, but she probably manages to get along without any help. Doesn't she have exotic eye- brows? Look at that arch! LILLIE' ZIEGLER used to worry for fear people would think she was related to Edward Ziegler, '33. She was the manicurst in the senior play. CLYDE BARBOUR. ls quite a man about town. He's never seen without at least one girl tearing along after him. MIIDRED BROWNE has some snazzy curls, hasn't she? Mildred is a mighty nice person, having a verv charming personality. IIZZTE BELLE NEARGUARD toes in for basketball in a big way. Some- times she could fairly put them in. JUANITA OLIVER has an awfully infectious smile. Hope she doesn't in- fect peop'e with the measles or anv- thinfz. Please don't hit me. Juanita. I'm not responsible. 14 Elfiofn - 'iilllnfn Oh, those happy days as freshmen! Oh, those happy, childhood days wh-:n we were freshmen. Here they are. folks. the departing seniors, who at the time these pic- tures were taken, were just embark- ing in all their ignorance and bliss upon the turbulent sea of high school days. Do you recognize any of them? There are quite a few whose coun- tenances justify recognition or un- controllable laughter. However, we won't discriminate betw-een the two sentiments which their blooming young' faces arouse. In the top picture there is Don Shane and Artie O'Donnell, stand- ing next to Josephine Peterson in the front row. Oh, to be a child once more. See Betty Wilson grinning coquett- tishly around the side of Don Shane's right ear? Notice the wind-blown bob and compare it with Betty's present tresses. Then take a squint at Shorty lX'!'cKellar and Red Riley of future bfsketball and gridiron fame. Aren't they sweet? And now to take a look at the lower picture. That little tow-headed fellow in knickers and a polo shirt is none other than Burton Andrus. Time changeth all! There's Johnnie Grentner, Bob- bie Freeman, and Henry Barker in the middle of the front row. Little did they realize when this picture was being' tak-en that they would be competing for a Summerfield scholaii-1 ship within the next four years. Five rows back on the left end of the row is a demure maid with hofn- rimmed glasses. Cute, isn't she? She answered even then to the name of Margaret Collins. Oh! There's Barbara Humphrey second from the right end in the fifth row. Don't try to control your- self. You won't be able to. t Embarking in ignorance and bliss -- Haute - mum 15 UNDERCL SS Classes!

A certain m 'er f the senior class with an e ee lngly dry sense of humor an- s ered, Moving There's nothing like coincidences! Th fth hour dramatics class was reading a pIa.y, Gettysburg, and was becoming quite enthralled with the booming cannons and the stirr- ing account of the Civil War' days, when there came to interrupt their thoughts a loud blast which might ave done credit to the battle of Gettysburg. But alas, 'twas only C. W. A. workers blasting the north wall of the gym. Mr. Edmond Dailey gave tests now and then. There was no special rea- son for them. except. perhaps, to prevent his young history students from dying from boredom. He learn- ed a. lot of things he hadn't been told by his college professors. Such as-a serf is water near the shore: a siege is a narrow body of land or waterg the ruler of the English Com- monwealth was Hitler. and the leader of the Protestant Revolt was Pope. The Easter style rules-oh, no! The journalism style rules were the bane of many a cub reporters existence. Do you use a comma be- foer the and in a series?

Many a budding journalist pondered over the correct Iix Representative group of scholars? -- way to write a 6-pound fish and the proper punctuation of quotations cauted a superfluous growth of grey- hair on the head of harrassed edi- tors. Professor H. R. Callahan may not have been very original when he said. I'll now illustrate what I have in mind. as he erased the black- board. According to reports and cer- tain evidence displayed, the implied state of mind was sad, but true. However, I-I. R. was run a close second by some of the young scient- ists in his care. For instance, one immature intellectual inferred that people having eyes capable of seeing infra-red rays had had a little too much to drink first. Another master mind answered, 'nYes, when the ice melted, in answer to the query whether it were possible to get off a prrfectly frictionless pond of ice. Through approximate computation, Mr. Carrol Ward may have had the strongest and funniest answers given to his queries. He was probably quoted in the chatter column of the Blue Jay the most times. This genial maestro nearly threatened to use force when explaining some phrase of bookkeeping to an earnest listener. 'Tm afraid we're going to have to blast to get it through, he wearily declared. 'Tm 'getting tired of being the goat all of the time. Miss Ethel Hinds complained after she had broken into print via the chatter ceulmn five times in one issue of the Blue Jay. Be that as it may, she did accuse a masculine member of the second hour dramatics class of preferring his lipstick second hand. In addition, when asked if hell were capitalized. sh-e answered ve- hemently, I-Iell? No! Between laughs, more or less- probably l-ess-studying was done and a. few things learned. It's a great life if you don't weaken. -T-T-If FT-T-T-T--TT-T17-T-T?-T '-T-T-Tire?-'T-TFT JUNIORS , i.

Alverta Marston, another budding young artist, went along on that all- eventful trip to the Girl Reserve conference at Minneapolis. She didn't have to go back to nature and stay on a farm as four of the eager dele- gates did and so obtained more of her beauty sleep. Perhaps that ac- counts for her blooming look.

She's all over the place with legs ouztftretcffed, arms Ilyfhig. and her famous hair streaming' forth from her head. Ceila Ellen Miller, standing there in the second row, was reported to have been seen accompanied by a certain scholarly young gentleman of the senior class. Dame 'Rumor never did tell us the outcome, however. G'ara Dalquet acted as office girl to Mrs. Gledys Sheoardson several hcurs each week. She Uassed a bas- ketball around considerably and is noted for her quick, ready smile. Any number of girls has envied llfaxine Romesburg her naturally curly. light brown hair. She doesn't heve to be bothered with perman- ents marcels, etc. She may be small, but she's miehty. Evelyn Ray looks as though she might be an eighth grader. but she fooled you and is a junior. She's another of these fortunate girls with naturally curly hair. She and Maxine are great chums. Marjorie Bowles and Margaret Moor-e are inseparable. They're even standing together in the last row of this picture. When Margaret gets her car, they fairly tear around town. Mary H-eid-el worked in the office, too. She's really very competent.

Faith was the big, bad wolf-oh pardon me-the bold. bad villainess. Vesta was the loyal follower, who shadow-ed every n'ove of that terrible scandal-monger. It was the members of this group who managed to out-chisel the Zip- ping Zebras fpage General Johnsoni in a banking contest. The stak-es were candy bars: the Zebras. paid their debt. too. Ev-elyn Peyton is known as that little girl-who-wishes-she-were-older. You'll age eventually, Evie, Then look where you'll be. You may never have heard of Paul Whitman and his band or of Rubin- oil' and his violin, but everyone has heard of-or maybe just heard- Vesta Wood. She and Rubinofl' are competitors in the violin business. If you ha.ven't heard of this blonde, heres a word of explanation. She's the gal who wins league contests and things. Hasn't, that boy in the third row been around here quite a bit? Oh, yes, he plays basketball. John David Kirkpatrick will probably be one of the mainstays of the 1934-'35 basket- ball team. He's quite a shiek, too, so watch him. girls. That handsome boy on the end of the second row is another most popu1ar man. Look how he's sur- rounded by girls, Maybe it isn't his fault. though. He may have been placed there so he could be seen. At any rate, when Jack Moore grows up, he won't be a bad guy. The first speaker on the affirma- tive-oh! oh! another slip! Let's st?rt over. Waneta Delver used to go out for debate. When that tall, light-haired girl arises and begins to talk, it's a cinch something happens. Lois Cassetty wore her fingers to the bone-not scrubbing. so don't mention child labor-playing Pop Goes the Weasel, to which the glrl's gym classes pranced. She was assist- ant pianist for the senior Girl Re- serve club. too. There's Lone Weasel Shaw stand- ing up as big as life in the back row. He's been the brunt of many a joke, concocted by intelligent persons with warped senses of humor, That's all right, Lloyd, we still love you. These Chiselers may incite caustic remarks about themselves, but, all in all, they're a pretty good gang of seniors-to-be. Here they are, my friends. Now no remarks!

They cure everything. Just feel their muscle. Laughing's good for the digestion, too, it is said. Look closely at them. Anne Calkins, there in the front row, is a Honey-CAlmolnd, I-Iind's brandy She goes in-or out-or on -for dramatlcs, readings, plays, and the like, She had a part in the all- schceol play, The Clean-up. Anne was one of the gossipy, society women in this production, Delphine Gfeller also reads-poems, American history, and. most anything else with words not longer than two syllables, She also takes charge of the revenue pouring into the senior G. A. A. club. She doesn't have to work hard at that, though. There's seldom any revenue. Miriam Miller, on the end of the first row, sang in the operetta, Joan of the Nancy Lee, -at least there was Q1 rumor to that edect and her name was on the program. She was the love-inspiring person who effected Arthur O'Donnell with her magnetic personality. The dancing master, also, made several advances toward her. Too bad she couldn't do any better than a cabin boy or teacher, isn't it? And she's such a wholesome-look- ing girl, too, She manages to get around a little now and then, when Ribs is spending the week-end in this flourishing' metropolis. Hot-shot Reuben Hammond is hid- ing there in the back row. Peekwa- boo, Ham! It's a good thing this isn't a moving picture, or Hammond wouldn't be there. Just a streak across the picture showing the dust he left behind when he started mov- ing. Talk about being fast-he makes greased lightning look like a slow motion picture of a snail walking across a china plate. When he moved down the basketball floor, his op- ponents wondered what caused the draft. Edwin Peterson is another of these boys the girls all ask about. Just a man about town! See that nonchal- ant, tired-off-the-whole-affair look on his face? That's the cost of being besieged with too many feminine ad- mirers. What are your office hours, Ed, or do you give advice to the lovelorn? Georgia Norris is a sweet, quiet, little thing. Pardon me-a nice jun- ior. Her hair's naturally wavy, too. Lucky. Did you eat bread crusts or spinach, Georgia? Horses, horses, crazy over horses! Who is? Cora Mae Smitley, of coruse. Ride 'em. cowboy! You ought to s-ee her tear around. And, as if that isn't detrimental enough to life and limb, she allows herslf to be knocked around like an old dish- tow-el. You ought to see her fall around from people's shoulders onto the tumbling mats in gym, She hits the floor most gracefully. Rex Gish is bashful. He was absent when this picture was taken, but he's too good to miss. He played the part of a high!-powered reporter in the junior play. Did he get the news? Scoop, that's what he was! Here's a list of the Honey Al- monds if you look at them from left to right: lst row: Miriam Miller, Georgia Norrris, Cora Mae Smitley, Miriam Stafford, Evelyn Langvardt, Ann Cal- kin, Ella Shaw, Bertha Bryant. 2nd row: Espernolia Douglas, Wil- ma Johnson, Kathryn Rimer, Julia Davis, Alene Younkin. 3rd row: Beda Kurtze, Genevieve Languein, Cleo Veille, Delphine Gfel- ler, Margaret Stratton, Marguerite 0'Neill, Ralph McLain. 4th row: Roy Smith, Allen Harris, Raymond Hill, Lloyd Segrist, Travis Brooks.

ZIPPING ZEBRAS 3 l w . l 'f1H L l' em ' ' ' And here, ladies and gentlemen, we have the Zipping' Zebrasf' zippingly led by Miss Marguerite Bignall. Some of this group are pretty good at zipping and zipped, skipped, or gyped their ways into the junior pllay. These experts are Genevieve Cooper. Patricia Johnson, Karl Lun- dee, Maxine Foveaux, and Floyd Fansler. Hooray! Genevieve Cooper was the leadlng lady. She played the part of one of th Three Graces. It was she, who fell heiress to a- mansion and, with the other Graces, made it into a tea- room. Genevieve and the leading man became quite affectionate in the closing scene of the drama. Tle kissed her as though he had had some practice. And may you think she couldn't take it! My name is Thuthy Thimpthon, and I lithpf' said Patricia Johnson in the same production. She may not have used these words, but oh, that little lithp. As the llsping third of the Graces. she brought down the house when she infected the en- tire cast with the fever and had even the dlgnifled attorney-at-law lithp- ing. She proved her nonchalance by not lighting' a Murad. lSh-e ate waffles and and cream puffs insteadb And oh, my, when she nearly choked on her breakfast! Wouldn't lt have been funny if sh-e had died out there-in front of Mr. Vineyard and everybody -of overeatlng? They'd have had to change the plot of the play to make a. death scene ilt in. What an ln- convenience that would have been! Puzzle! Find Karl Lundeen. Really, though. he's not there. They wouldnt let him in for fear he'd break the camera-or something. He was that romantic gentleman who had the lead in that much-mentioned junior p'ay, Karl was the tall. handsome football player, and you should have heard the feminine hearts beat when he appeared on the stage. tEdltor's note: One curious male member of the audience was wonder- ing whose watch was ticking so loudlyl. In real life, also, Karl played the heart-stirring game of football. He planned to play next year, but the newest eligibility rule bars this. Coach Floyd Fansler was oh, so grim and unbending when he order- ed Karl o'fT the team. Oh, you Na-asty man! He looked so much like a grown-up college coach that it was quite disillusionlng' to see him after the play without his mak-e- up. Maxine Foveaux saved the day. when. with the authority of a home-ec teacher, she stated that waffles were not indlgestible. lI'll bet she really can't cook and doesn't know anything about it.l Look at that entrancing look in her eyes. She makes posters, too. Wilma. Ilrion is another one of those women who know what to say, how to say it, and when to say lt. A debator. Willy, is the white mice problem in Alaska essential to the British plan of control of llzzards and pink elephants on Mars? That sounds kinda' mixed somehow, but facts never would stick.

SOPHOMORES 5 I ' ' Eililbiai-L'-5-L-Lili'-L Ml- -i L' If the sophomores wished the ac- count of themselves written like the accounts of previous classes, it would lead something like this: When the class of 1936 entered the Junction City Junior-Senior High School in the seventh grade, we were very young and timid. In the eighth grade we were more self-confident As freshmen we began to wear ai lordly air. And as sophomores we are unparalleled. 0R.emem.ber that this is written from their viewpointb But the class of 1936 does not wish these so often misused worth to be repeated. chiefly because they say, their class is so far superior to all other classe, that to apply their hack- ncyed p to it would be like ' 'ying - t to the genuis of Sl espear , 'cute to Niagara Fal I tri ith writej that we j ii high in the ninth ade. e c eny that wing' n ' hth aders and e e Qs Ei ent truth glee hct we are now sophomores. In all three capacities we have acquitted ourselves with distinguished ability. We wish to state that as seventh grad-ers we were not green. We flourished in the balmy atmosphere of J. C. H. S., and our cheeks be- came a beautiful pink. In the eighth grade wev were further strengthened by t A' enuous exercises of 'Nash- ingtons and Lee's and Grants cam- paigns. In our freshman year we learned to perform wonderful ffats with x's and y's in room 310. iThis is some more ego.J Now for the facts. In their freshman year, feeling the need of organization, the class of 1936 elected as the head of their so- called illustrious band president John Miller, and to assist him in the arduous la.bors of administration. vice president Jo Collins. The distinguish- ed annals of the class were faithfully kept by Patricia Eisenhower. In athletics Malcolm Tibbetts achieved outstanding recognition in that he won a football letter when a fresh- man during his first year on the sqiiad. Eugene Sloyer, second team halfback, pronounced as having- but a fighting chance following a serious injury received in a grid fracas at Chapman, clung grlmly to life. And hastening to the sophomore year. Sloyer ascended the presidential chair and Jo Collins retained her position as assistant. And John Mil- ler, as secretary-treasurer, recorded all proceedings and handled the opu- lenlt wealth of the class. In the field of dramatics and music, Mary Louise Heavey was the charming, talented star of Joan of the Nancy Lee, and Jeanne Anne Lambert and Doris Abferwald were the captivating and attractive Flor- inda and Dorlnda. Frances Roffe was that quaint little Spanish girl. The Clean-Up, all school production, saw Patricia Eisenhower as the fascinat- ing Miss Woodruff, accomplished in the difficult art of speech making. On the roster of the Pep Club of 1933-34 appeared the names of soph- omores Bettie Fogelstrom, Patricia Eisenhower, Jack Swensson, and John Miller. In addition to his other numerous offices, John is drum-major of the band of old Junction high, With the other various names in nlvg?

This unhappy lot has fallen to a long-earedi species known as the freshmen. who are forever being greeted with cries. of freshies, greenhorns, and committed to tasks wholly undesirable. Besides these dastardly offenses, the blame is in- evitably laid on their overburdened shoulersg however they go staggering along an manage to maintain their equilibrium, despite such adversity, much to the dismay of the upper classmen. Have you ever noticed how they attempted to saunter around on their spindling legs with much effort and probably practice, a.nd how they have engraved on their fac-es a re- production of that haughty, dignified stare of the seniors. Alas! What a failure! But what could one expect with such incompetent models. Every year a precedent is adh-ered to by the freshmen. This is the ulti- matum from the upper classm-en to yf elf ef..,Z, - 26,42- qjzxug, the freshies. demanding their sub- servience and humility by putting themselves to the task of spotlessly whitewashing th-e J on Grand View hill. And so every year these sweet young things humbly trudge up the W-ell worn path and do their duty, while a. murderous and re- vengeful fire is burning in their flashing. flame shooting' eyes, and a sinister frown flits off and on their cherub countenances. However, they redeem the day by making a picnic of it and all in all having a fairly pr-esentable time. Despite all of the fond appellations and endearing thrusts, the freshmen have produced ai class that is in- dispensible to this year's school his- tory. They have a bunch of smart kids leven though they do approach the verge of being smart alecsl and have kept their own on the honor roll. In sports they have given a. num- ber of their fellow classmates, who constituted a large part of the junior high football and basketball nucleus, and in Princess Chrysanthemum made ostensible their musical and dramatic abilities. . 1 Zfxf 44,91-LZVL In ending these dry and biased opinions of a senior, consolation is given to freshmen by assuring th m that despite such a hectic year, they will-eventually--'Je seniors and rrill be able to pick on me freshmen, too.

U L, U , -J Eighth grade! The very name sug- gests and brings to mind diminutive people. scattering around the hulls, voicing slang and wise cracks and ramming into those dignitierl upper classmen. But they have their con- sslatlons. They are not as annoying as the seventh grade, nor as green as the freshmen: they are merely acutely conscious ot coming into their 'teens. But what a grand bunch of en- thusiasts they are. They always turn- ed out for any football and basket- ball game in full force: always made the gym ring with their treble voices, even though their booing was quite obvious at times because of their older instigators. This class also produced the junior high cheerleaders who were ready with reproaches for booing, though they were smartinzg with indignation at some seemingly unfair play or decision. Now to change the topic. Have you noticed what cute girls they have. So cute that upper classmen turned their heads for a second glance and were so satisfied they went a wooing, and were either suc- cessful or repulsed. And last, but not least, their boys are regular chips off the old block. Sturdy, peppy, little kids, sometimes refresh- ing, ,but generally vexing. Now to expound on their class loyalty. This is the class that was the best represented in intramurals, with the largest turnouts, and had pleny of vim, vigor, vitality and all of the other appropriate synonyms. The eighth grade has these un- usually good signs for a successful senior year. To add to th-em are their scholastic abilities. They have man- aged to keep their average to a superior degree, and have been well represented in Junior High sports, for they furnished a goodly number for the triumphant Baby Blue Jays. Raymond McKellar, a well-known member' of this class, seems to be following in his broth-er's. footsteps along athletic llines. Ray was on the junior high basketball squad this year and you're bound to hear more about him as time goes on. Flonence Gormley is another one that is apt to make herself known during the next few years. She made a name for herself by her characteri- zation in the junior high operetta this year. Do you remember her sing- ing Lullaby La.nd ? Bill Wenger, president of this group, is another mighty cute eighth grader with a genial personality. That's no foolin', either. Carl Myers and Beecher I.-icklider were the two who led the junior high in yells and cheers at the basketball games last winter. Watch them. folks. You'11 see and hear more of these two. Therefore expectations are highly motiivated for the senior class in 1938, with honors in sports and scholarship, with pep and buoyancy supreme, and cute girls and winning boys, undaunted and trlumhant with the swe-epstakes in their hands. Here they are. folks. Look 'em over. Robert Aeker, Ernest Ain, Arnold Anderson, Marcella Anderson, Justes Ashley.

In September, 1933, the largest class in the history of the Junction City Junior-Senior' High School was enrolled. Like all oth-er seventh grade classes it was scorned by the students above and kindly admonished by its teach- ers to study hard. But in a short time, by its willing coclceration in intramurals and other school activities., it won the respect of the upper classes and, by its high grades, it won the praises of the teachers. Now that the 1933-1934 school tum is almost over, these seventh glade students are beginning to lift their heads a little higher and to take notice of their surrounnsngs. Now and then they receive a kind look and smile from the juniors and seniors, but their greatest satisfac- tion comes from knowing that they vrill be regarded wxtn awe by 'he seventh grade class of next year. At l2 o'clock noon on the first Cay of school 153 of the 160 seventh graders. running loose in the halls of old junior-senior high, were lost. The other seven were safely accounted for by older brothers and sisters, who, much to their embarrassment when confronted by fellow classmen, were putting' into execution parental instructions received before leaving home on that fatal day' of Sept. 11. Following the procedure of the up- per classes, because they knew no better, the seventh grade convened Cif so conservative a term may be ap- plied to the unorganized body that it wash and elected officers-Tom Martin, presidentg Mayselle Shilling, vice-presidentg Sally Sumner, secre- tary-treasurer, and Robert Weary, pailiamentarian. Even though these seventh grade youngsters are thrown into daily contact with the statliness and reserve of the upper classmen, their un- restrained vitality forces them to re- sort to such annoying' pranks as darting' through the halls busily -en- gaged in a game of tag or dodging follow students while on roller skates or throwing pap-er wads and snow- balls or plugging locks or copping the choice seats at the basketball games. Try as they have to assume the sophistication of their superiors, they slid back the distance they had g3ined when at Christmas time they wrote confidential letters to dear old Santa Clause and spent innumberable evenings browsing' around in the toy departments. Seriously though, the seventh grade is to be congratulated upon achievements made in extra-cur1'icu- lsr activities. In intramurals, the Cc-ops, under the captalncy of Doris Crawford, were named volleyball champions in their tournament, de- feating eighth grade teams composed cf larger and stronger girls. Here's an orchid to you. In dramatics and music there are three. Geraldine Vineyard, as Fairy Moonbeam, appearing at the summons of the magic ring, and Mayselle Shilling anl Marjorie Miller, as Sprites of the Night, offering the Dance Grotesque, carried off honors in the junior high operetta, Prin- cess Chrysanthemum. Again and again the seventh grades will be remembered for the co-operation. loyalty and support they considered a requirement punishable by the severest of means if neglected. They set an example in completely filling their part of the cheering sec- tions at all athletic contests. Joe 'Roe-snfield led them in their lusty 151161 - lllllnfn 27 KK - and notice their surroundings l x interpretations of Fifteen Rahs and Blue-White and Hip Horray Junction. All in all, considering all the brain- racklng problems it has presented the faculty and, at the same time, all the honor and praise it has bestowed upon Old Junction High, it can be said that this seventh grade class is no worse, and, if received from an optimistic standpoint, it might be said to be a little better than some before it.

Dropping, only one league fracas, and that to Clay Center, four time league champions, the Blue Jays completed the '33 football season and chalked up second place for them- :elves in the North Central Kansas League and finished the best season since '24, Although Junction lost only one league game, two losses were obtained in non-league frays. In those non-league games 'he Jays were overpowered by the Manhattan Wildcats, who outplayed them to the tune of a 12-6 victory. Wichita North was Junction's next Waterloo, when these Redskins, who, although out- nlayed in the first half by the Jays, by the rise of strong reserves caused Junction to surrender a 19-0 game. , The Other Side! Besides having an exciting time while playing' in the game itself, the boys had other experiences which were not accounted for in numerous sport articles, which followed each ,game in the Daily Union and the Blue Jay. This writer snooped around and about and found much concerning the inside story of a football h-ero's life. More fun! It seems as though it has always been a disputed fact as to what happens when ai team goes into a huddle. What do they talk about? It was finally determined after much inquiry that in a Blue Jay huddle Malcolm Tibbets and Emil Dalquest had lusty arguments as to which oi' the two had the larger feet. Well, there are four big points of argu- ment there! Boys Censor Risque Haprrenings. According to certain members of the team, Willard Jameson and George McKellar were considered the greatest lovers among them-oh! of course. outside the inevitabe Ed- wards! And did they have fun on these football trips that took them away from home to where people didn't know them! Oh. bov. oh, boy, oh, boy! Innumerabl-e things happened which cannot be printed, so members of the team state, but a few were finally censored and recounted, acoomanied by much mirth on the part of the participants. Alt Beloit, Bowles, Langvardt, and cute. J However, to go on with the story after being so rudely interrupt- ed, following the game, these three football heroes were sadly disappoint- ed for they had forgotten to bring along their tennis shoes and therefore could not display their skill to the young ladies. How heart rending! Score One for Tib. At Clay Cent-er, in a restaurant where the team went to eat their flll before the game, Malcolm Tibbets had a terrible tim-e of it as there was a blonde waitress who took a liking to 'tTib and got him all flustered. It is the Wichita trip, however, that will longest be remembered by the boys who went. Going down on the bus accompanied by Mr, Fletcher, Coach Shenk and Principal Vineyard, the boys became quite disturbed about the fact that the faculty occupied all the ,best seats and .gave the boys what remained. Their feelings on this subject became so aroused that they started their vocai apparatuses to working in order to torture th-e oth-er cruel occupants in the bus. These members of the faculty were not to be bother-ed. They had just heard the boys glee club the day bzforel Tut Peterson from all ob- servation was the best singer among' them. Paper Wads Plus Harmony? Finding their singing was of no avail, a. paper wad battle was next in line. Things were going pretty well until Coach Sh-efnk got swatted on the back of the neck and then and there the paper wad shooting' was quelled. If Snyder's big feet hadn't been so situated in the line of his cours-e, Crabtree says he would have made his first touchdown. During the game Let Bowles came pretty near being taken out when he told Tut to step in one of the opponent's face the next time he fell down. It seems as though Let's ir-e was aroused at something or other and he told this same player upon whose countenance he had wished Tut's size thirteen foot, to meet him after the game and perhaps they might be able to come to some agreement. Let declares he show-ed up at the appointed place following the game but that the other fellow didn't. At Chapman during the annual Irish-Jay Turkey day round-up, the Tibbets, McKellar, and Jameson each had four pictures taken in their football garb when Harry Trimble came are-und for pictures for the Pow Wow. It can readily be unedrstood why McKellar and Jameson would request four-.but is Malcolm hiding something? Must be that blonde wait- ress in Clay Center! Coach Saves the Day. At the football banquet a grand and glorious time was had. The only incident that seemed to detract from it was the fact that Tut Peterson, who is, according to himself, the best after dinner speaker on the team, was not allowed to make the address of the evening. Coach defer- red because he feared Tut would talk too long! 'Twas rumored that Rex Gish pulled this one after the banquet. The car was nearing town. Rex pond-ers quietly and then asks- I shay where are we? We are between seventh and eighth streets, says the driver. Never mind the details, says Rex, What town is this? Fairy tales record th-e daring deeds of errant knights and history recalls the valor of our fallen brave -so shall we recall the adventurous exploits of our brave and errant, reckless, gallant warriors, whose time of peace has come and who, now in retrospect, the past recall. The record of games won and lost, although of first rank, is not the true gauge of Shenk's Wonder Boys fEds. Note: They wondered what it was all about when they started and how they could have dropped the Clay Center contest when they nnishedb. Jays Trounne Miltonvale The first game, with Miltonvale, was irregular in interest, lacking the smoothing influence of experience, the Jamesons drives on spinners, the Peterson plunges of brilliance. The Jays won 6-0. a little bruised. a little wiser. Said the Daily Union: Although scoring only one touch- down during the game, the Junction team showed much unexpected power, both offensively and defensively.

The heat bothered the players of the teams and substitutions were frequent in the lineups. Nolan Day was the only player to stay in the game the full time Beloit Falls Victim. Beloit, a perrenial Blue Jay early season victim, was next on the sche- dule and in a ragged game held the Blu-e Jays to six points. Coach Shenk. who seems as dexterous in his juggl- ing of material into winning combi- nations as with tne Indian clubs made frequent changes-each an im- provement made. The power that was yet to assert itself was good enough to win a slow eqame. Peterson's legs were not lim- bered up yet, Jameson's neckties were not clicking. Ftupe look-ed like a bale of hay that had been dropped on the field by mistake, and all of the bays were running back five yards to find a soft place to land. But better davs were at hand. The Union commented thus- The Junction Cty high school football team defeated the Beloit team in a hard fought game yester- day afternoon, 6-0. The only Jay score came early in the first quarter ..... Beloit momentarily fumbled the ball and being' too late to kick attemped to pass. The pass was knocked down by a Junction player and the Jays took possession of the ball on the 32 yard stripe. Peterson gained 13 yards on two off tackle plays for a first down. Jameson added four more through the cent-er of the line. Peterson made two more, and on the next play Langvardt took the ball on a reverse play around left end to the one-half yard line. Peterson smashed tne center of the Beloit line for the remaining dis- tance and the only score of the gime. Earl Crabtree, sub wingoack, made several nice gains in the game. On one occasion he carried the ball for a 20-yard gain around the Beloit end. What! No Drug Store Heroes? A football is a queer shaped object being streamlined on both ends to such a point that to prognosticate its bounce upon contact with the terra firma is quite a perplexing problem. To play safe on this point a code Knot N. Rf. A.l has been de- vised whereby the safety man merely holds his hand high in the air in- dicating to his onrushing opponent that he has his fingers crossed Icom- monly called Kings Xl and that he thqreby promises not to run with said sphere, if only the aforemen- tioned onrushing' players allow it to come into his fthe safety'sJ posses- sion. This procedure. although quite sim- ple, never seemed to find its way into the Five-Second Plan of any of our backstops. It robbed them of a chance to become drug store heroes so they deemed it cowardly to signal for a fair catch. As a result Junction was robbed of the ball on several occasions deep in her own territory. These mistakes cost many potential touchdowns. Mad scrambles for the ball with enemy players all around seemed foolhardy, so, late in the season, the ball was left to bounce on its uneven ways and Blue Jays fans once more got their jangled nerves tapologies to Cam-elsj and tempers under control. The Concordia game was hard fought and the brilliant i?l work of Mr. Cables and the quarterback service of one Mr. Edwards from the sidclines went for naught. This Mr. Edwards has the very annoying habit of running out to the edge of the field to help his boys out of ruts. But even his presence didn't bother the Jays who moved on to win a thrilling 6-0 victory, their third in as many stsrts. We quote the press: The J. C. high scnool Blue Jays, football representatives of the local schcol, showed unexpected power in defeating a supposedly strong Con- cordia eleven in yesterdays game here 6-0. In the final period the team was well cn its way for n score after three spectacular runs by Jameson, McKellar, and Langvardt, but the backs got the wrong signal and lost 27 yards.

Amnesia that queer disease that causes one momentarily to lose all memory, sense of direction, friends, etc., seemed to attack the Junction City backfleld in its next joust. The Memory Lingers On! We may have been given memories so that We could have roses in December, but memory also brings back that Clay Center game of 1933. Which is one big argument against it. Oh! what a night. These Clay Center boys, we believe, could meet the proverbial wolf at the door and come out he next morning with a new fur coat. Coach Nelson, although a fine coach, must have been born with a four leaf clover over each ear. Clearly outplayed, the Clay Center boys took advantage of every break and with a timely forward pass downed Junction 6-0. Two or three times during the game Junction backs intercepted pasfes on fourth downs losing nearly twenty yards on each of these. Re- member A Clay the tackle Jameson made?

The game was ,a night affair, ro if all are in favor we'll excuse the whole thing by saying the lights The local press gave this account: The game was evenly played throughout, with Jameson, Langvardt, and Peterson pounding the Tiger line with consistent gains and Clay Cen- ter's big four, Hanson, Carpenter, Rankin, and Young making good gains through the Jay lines. Howard Langvardt, Jay wingback, was hurt in the first quarter, but re- turned the last half to make some nice gains around the Tiger end. tEditor's Note: Do you all remem- ber how Jennette Kerr wept so tragi- cally when Howard was carried off the fleld?J Jays Go Up in the Air, To say that the Jays at this stag-e in the season went up in the air would not be amiss. Manhattan, the big, bad wolf from the east, had been creating quite a bit of trouble in our neighboring- high-powered conference, It looked as though the Blue Jays were in for a shower of Baby Wildcat touch- downs, but Rupe, Ferris, Langvardt, Peterson, Riley and Co. had another thought that fine October afternoon. Although outweighed probably ten to fifteen pounds to the man, th Blue Jays played a bang-up game, never once backing, aithough the weight of the Wildcats and a number of good reserves pulled them through with a 12-6 victory. Manhattan had hardly settled down in their tracks before Peterson uncorked a wobbly pass near the sidelines over the heads of the Man- hattan secondary. Dashing lazily down the sidelines was Howard Langvardt, who thought it locked so easy that there was no particular hurry, He gathered the the remaining few yards Just inside the south boundary ior the score. Manhattan was amazed-Junction wild! Please, Mr. Heminway. The rest of the game was even stepping until the bouncing punted ball was gathered in by one Mr. Meissinger, of the Wildcats, who, behind good interference ran 50 yards or so to score, Manhattan won, but what a bat- tle! Ralph Ferris and Red Riley were tackling demons that day. The daily news bulletin had this to say: The Junction team was outplayed during the whole game, but for the most part held well in the plnches and led in the scoring untll the latter part of the third quarter when the Wildcats scored their second touchdown of the game . . . , Ralph Ferris, senior guard, played one of his best games oi the season, making tackle the game and line to throw several lossest Captain Jim back, and Wayne Riley, quarterback, also were malnstays in the Junction defense, On two occasions Riley broke through the Manhattan defense to throw the Wildcat backs for nine and twelve yards loss. Abilene Takes A Tumble. The Abilene Cowboys, who had, the previous week, upset the Clay Center Tigers, came over on Friday, October 27, determined to avenge the 14-12 defeat suffered a year before on the Cowboy field. Joe Antonio had been playing that cold night and it had been largely due to his efforts that Junction had after tackle during breaking' through the Manhattan backs for Rupe, defensive full- n fu - 'Umm fu 31 x ' fx' . 4 Q '- I I A it e , 'V i ' i 1 1 f ' , - 'V I '--, ts .Y -Z I .- Case Lundeen Crabtree Day Langvardt Dalquest Qendj Ctacklel Chalf-backj Ccenterl Chalf-backl Cguardl w-on, although both Cowboy touch- ter. The Jays let the Cowboys score duck SOUP- downs were gifts from interc-epted forward passes. But Antonio had graduated and Abilene had added power and speed. What a fine reception they receiv- ed that crisp, October afternoon. The Jays, who by this time had found that a pass was the short-est distance between six points, were not in the least, scared by all of the bear stories about Abil-ene's rough riders. After the usual preliminarles the Biue and Whites began to open up. Abilene had found the Junction line inpenetrable, a thing' many other teams found out all during' the rest of the season. Tibbits was a power house: Ferris spilled the big and fast alike: Nolan Day was as steady as could be-the whole line clicked. Early in the game history repeated itself. The Blue Jays were heading for the Atlantic Ocean and the land of the rising sun, and had propelled themfelves laterally to the southern boundary of the field, geographically speaking. when from the hands of N-fly Day shot the ball. Straight and true went the pass into the out- stretched palms of one Tut Peter- son fnationallty unknownb. Down the field near the sidelines sped Howard Langvardt. Peterson in a. glance locked the situation over and surmlsed that since it had work- ed against Manhattan, there was a chance it might again. Up went the blue clad arm, out it swung, and the ball sperl forward to meet en route the scampering Langvardt as over the last line he stepped. ball in arms. The crowd went wild and Coach Van Osdol of .Albil-ene was seen chewing with relish two 8-penny nails. The rest of the game didn't mat- a touchdown so they wouldn't go away mad, and a joyous Junction jamboree jammed adjacent streets. We quote: The biggest upset of the football season took place at Fegan Field yes- terday afternoon as the Junction City Blue Jays defeated the Abilene Cow- boys 13-7. Junction scored two touchdowns, one ,by Langvardt and one by Jame- son, while White scored the only Abilene tally. The first Jay score was a 25-yard pass from 1-'eterson to Langvardt only a few feet from the south sideline. The Jay team was superior to the Cowboys in almost every division of the game. The Jays scored 180 yards from scrimmage to 117 for Abilene. Indulge in Indian Skirmish. While speakers all ov-er the country were telling us that fifteen years ago today the war to -end war was brought to a close-, the Junction Javs were starting a little revolution all of their own-or we might call it an Indian skirmish. The Blue Jays on that day. Novem- leer 11, journeyed to far oh' Wichita to meet the North high Redskins in what they thought would resemble Custer's massacre or the fall of the Alamo. Every big team during the season likes to meet a really weak team in order to run up a bulky score and strengthen the morale of the player: -sive them confidence. It is a part of some coaches strategy. Whether or not the Wichita coach had that in mind, we don't know, but we do know that it was a false assumption in this case if they thought that you use Blue Jays in Ir, was at fine day and the Junction boys had everything to win and nothing to lose. During the first two periods the Jays played the Redskins second team line and first string backfield. but Wichita, failing to make a' touch- down every play was getting down right provoked. In fact, the Blue Jays were piling up more yardage and were tackling with more force. A long Wichita pass was good for a touchdown in the second period and late in the game, Junction, weakened by injuries and lacking capable reserves, dropped back to let the Wichita grldders push over two more counters. It was a real battle, though. and those Jay fans who journeyed to the game were not in the least ashamed of the team. In fact. they were proud of it and anyone would have said- By gum, them boys are whur I crm frum an' they ain't bad, air they? We quote here a news excerpt from a Wichita daily: Battered all ov-er the field during the first two periods. North I-Iigh's undefeated gridders kept their slate clean by a flashy, last half finish, which humbled a hard-fighting Junc- tion eleven by a score of 19-0 at Roosevelt Field Saturday afternoon. It was a real battle from the start. but the slashing attack of Coach Johnson's Redskins proved too much for the invading pigskin artists and their line gave time after time in the final periods. , Marysville Embarrassdl.

Whrm Dink Stover and his Marysville boys came here on Novem- ber 17, the wolf that came down on his fold smashed over two touch- downs before the opening whistle's ccho had returned. The Blue Jays, showing' more power than they knew what to do with, took the opening kickoff, slashed, whirled, dived and plunged, The Bulldogs were nonplussed and no little em- barrassed by their own feeble efforts to stop a Junction typhoon. After a varied attack had moved the bill to Marysville's 8-yard line, big Tut Peterson, with plenty of knee-action and free wheeling, carri- ed half of the Bulldogs over the final ribbcfn with him. The extra Point was missed. Never once had Junction given up possession of that ball between kickoff and touchdown. Marysville took the next kickoff and tried the Blue Jay line a. few times and then punted. The Jays took the ball near the c-enter of the field. A reverse was called and to the spectators it look- ed like one of those plays that had been rehearsed only once and every back was going the wrong way. Peterson finally obtained posses- sion of the ball, knocking one of his own men over like a tin pin in doing ro. The crowd sighed. It looked like an 8-yard loss-but no-that Blue Jav line hadn't weakened. Out from the tangled mass of arms and legs shot the big Swede with p'entv of interference. Down the sidelines he sped, shaking tacklers. bowling' others over until the ti:-al line was behind him. Calmly did he touch the ball to earth, an added gesture that must have irked the Bulldogs, for trouble was brewing. The early winter hibernation of the Blue Jays in the next few minutes resulted in two Bulldog for- ward passes for touchdovims and by btute force, Willard Jameson ham- mered over another Bird score, thanks to an interference on a pass by a Bulldog, which put Junction in a scoring position. The score was 18-13 by this time and many Junc- ticn breaths were held until the final gun sounded the shot, making that 5-point lead a victory. It was a dandy grme and brought out hidden power in the Junction team that was to sm-other Chapman in the annual Tur- key dav classic. The Union now we quote: By unleashing a first quarter avt- tack which netted two touchdowns, 150 yards from scrimmage, and a bit of ov-Drconfitlence, the Blue Jays downed the Marysville Bulldogs in a thrilling' garre on Flegan Field yester- day afternoon. The Junction team show-ed a bet- te' offensive than in any other game they have played this year. Peterson alone accounted for 175 yards. Jame- son. fullback, also did a fine job of smashing the line. ' Grand Finale!

The Irish rooters must have had indigestion the night before, as some of the Chapman citizenry were quite disagreeable-especially those of the police force. The sc-ore of th-e game was not in- dlcative of the superior prowess of the Blue Jays. Twice did Peterson run half the length of the field for scores o-nly to have the play nullified by mis- tikas of his teammates. Chapman fumbled on nearly every play and Junction players were swarming o-ver nearly every Irish play. The most sensational plays were staged by Willard Jameson who was putting on a one man show.

On the first play Chapman fumbled and the Blue Jays battled on down the field again. Not once in the regular course of p'ay did the Blue Jays pass. Passes weren't necessary. Many senior stars shone brightly for the last time-'Rupe, Ferris, Dav, Snyder, Riley, Peterson. Langvardt end all the rest contributing their best efforts for a glorious final ef- fort.

Pirates with their tattered clothing and evil deeds seem a far cry from fl bride and her wedding party with its dainty dresses and gentle ways. But in this operetta these two ele- ments are brought together in a must logical manner when the dainty maidens become the victims of the bold bad man. Lady Joan, played by Mary Louise Heavey, is the heroine of this rom- plicated affair. She is on her way home to England with her bridal party and newly purchased Paris trcfusseau. That unimportant person- age, her husband-to-be, which part Frank Durland took, was along, as w-ell as her father. who was Scott Case. However, she was on her way home when the pirate brig overhauled the vessel and took her and her friends captive. Then it is found that the leader of the pirates, Captain Dick 1Hoover 'Rupertl had been the leading char- acter in Lady Joan's past. What is more. this nautical person is the cousin of the leading lady's finance, who had stolen the valient Dick's fortune as well as his girl. In a twang all his own.

When his lady love is stolen by his rival. the brave prince im- mediately starts out to look for her. He finds the magic ring which the Princess has dropped and summons to h's aid the Fairy Moonbeam. The Princess is rescued and the bold bad villain is captured This wicked Prince so-Sli is por- trayed by Charles Filby. His dark features make him appear villainous enough to scare anyone. Although So-Sli is favored by the Emperor, he knows that the Princess dislikes him. He use magic to entice her to a secluded spot where, aided by Saucer Eyes, he spirits her away. When the Emperor finds his daughter missing, he is in a rage at Top-Not. the court chamberlain, or Emily Bowles, frightened but not daunted by this outburst of rage. The emperor is somewhat calmed when Tu-Lip, Florence Gormerly, sings a 1ulla.by. The Princess is finally brought home to her father by So-Tru. The dL:p'icity of So-Sli and Saucer Eyes is revealed, and the emperor vows to punish the guilty persons. but Princess Chrysanthemum. however. saves them in time, marnes So-Tru, and the operetta, enas happily. This operettai was given on March 8-9. again - 'main 35 Let's give them the benefit of the doubt. .

This could be applauded with bravol if it didn't have among its illustrious membership the in- evitable Betty Wilson and Jennette Kerr, quite as boring as they sound. However, let's give them the bene- fit of the doubt, because lennette is always going to market with some Johnny and Betty is lways trying to get some laughing stream- let to come down to see her some time. But to disgress from such monot- onous material, let us mention the numerous talent of the said club. In the estimation of Prof. Paul Hansen, of Washburn, this club is good. and as his estimation is supposed to be authorative, we will accept it, for our musical ear is slightly Jntuned. However, to comp straight to the point, the senior girls glee club is a talented group and their singing is pleasing and delightful. It has to be to receive a rating or superior. Now my dear reade1's, cast, tlny thoughts and patience upon the ext pounding of the soloists in this group. Never before in the history of the world since Jenny Lind, fplease relax or you will grow bored.J has Such a golden voice descended upon this materialistic world, as that of Betty Wilson. Her warbling of Laughing Streamlet Come Down and See Mc Sometime, is quite stupenduous. But now come the surprise. Folks. we have in our presence the illus- tiicus and canine name of Kerr. fleas: refrain from spelling it Cur. Medium voice is her speicalty. Now to ascend the celestial steps again ifrom the canine worldj we come upon the courageous iigure of Joan of the Nancy Lee, ilooking like Kid Boots himselfl alias Mary Louise Heavey. Please note how the name is spelled. This very young lady had the lead in the senior high operetta and represented the school in girls high voice by piping away at Fairy Pipers. No. my little chick--a-dees. don't be frightened, for that noice you hear is only Delphine C1feller's voice way down ther, imploring the day to be gone, thou varlet, you! The next young lady is not the Wie Willie Winkl-e who runs through the town, but Wilma Irion, who runs through arias and arias and rome more arias, as though they were streets or something, in a medium-I didn't say mediocre- voice. Now that all sarcastic, but per- fectly unmeaning remarks have been passed and repassed, seriousness will pervade in the extending of sincene congratulations to the glee club as a whole and the solos for their splendid work this year and the thanking them for their part in the sweepstakes race. We compliment Miss Mary Wilson, who, rain or shine, tears or smiles, directed this group over rocky woods to the pinacle of success. ltlay the memory of them live long in your hearts and minds, and forever give you pleasure, when in reminiscing you encounter the mem-- ory of a senior high girls glee club of yore.

For instance-Carl Smythe or Malcolm Tibbets. Oh, yes, the penalty for not quiet- ing down after Miss Wilson had issued her daily plea' was the privil-eg-e of looking at Miss Margar-et Bloome in room 220 for a whole hour after school. What a break! The next thing on the program for this gang of boys during fourth period was the ritual of passing out the music. executed very no-bly by Arthur O'Donne1l. He got so very good that by the end of the year he could throw a piece of music clear to the back of the row from the front of the room. Then, of necessity, Miss Wilson would say, I'll take the first tenors the first thing and will the second tenors and the bases please find something to do. There followed a period of torture for the tenors and bxses, while the first tenors tried to think and sing at the sam-e time. This first tenor aggregation bears a little investigation. When you think a tenor you always think of Arthur Zcrnickow. Nevertheless, there were a few others. Howard Aiverill, Robert Acker, and Jay Reighly managed to hold down the back row of the room very nicely. Then there was William Hurd on the second row and Eugene Sloyer and Hoover Rupert on the front row. After the iirst tenors had agonized the others enough, Miss Wilson moved to the second tenors, and whom do we find here but Reuben Hammond and Fenlon Durand warh- ling away with Carl Biegert, Glen Amthauer. Everett Lallis, Henry Platt, John Campbell, Chester Vance, Edward Townes, and Jack Moore at- tempting to keep up with Reuben and Fen. When the second tenors had done their bit to the satisfaction of Miss Wilson. she moved down to the first basses, the largest group fin num- bersl in the glee club. There sat Red 'Riley and Shorty McKellar making ready to croong then in the background were to be seen such people as Scott Case, Frank Durland, Burton Andrus, Lester Bowles, John David Kirkpatrick, James Gillmer, and Emil Dalquest. Last and least fanother slipi-but not least there repossed the second bass-es led by Arthur U'Donne1l and The Great Smythef' Situated back cf these two and Bob Miller and Tom Fegan were Malcolm Tibbets, Raymond Hill, Richard Snyder, Wil- lard Jameson, Lester Bowles, and Chester Smith. Also, we find that most glee clubs have accompanists, and this group was no different, for they had Marg- aret Stratton presiding at the piano cvery session. Much was accomplished this year by the boys glee club, or so they tell us. They participated in the cperetta, Joan of the Nancy and despite the numerous paperwads and other forms of amusement, or annoyance, flying through the air, the production was very successful. The boys sang for assembly, the Ladies Reading Club, and the spring concert in preparation for the con- test at Clay Center. The .boys quartet consisted of Arthur Zernickow, first tenor: Fen- lon Durand, second tenorg Wayne Riley, baritone, and Ca1'l Smythe, bass.

Thus, dear martys, here unravels ylz olde historee of the glee'club of the low-er proportion of this school.

Whether you like it or not! These words will be recalled by all who saw the junior high oper- ctta. Princess Chrysanthemum. They were sung by none other than Empzror-What-A-Man, --pardon the mistake - Emperor What-For-Whi. Harold Harsch was that personage. Warren Acker, playing the part of Prince-S3-Tru, got down on his knees end won the hand of the Princess fr:-m the vlllian Princeiiso-Sli, play- ed by Charles Filby. 4Does he ever make a good, villianous looking Japanese manll These three were a few represen- tatives of the junior high boys glee club, which presented the afore- mentioned operetta. Harsch played the part of the wicked emperor who would just as soon cut oil' a per:son's head as any- thing .els-e. CThat's what they told us, anyway.J It was he who gave Warren Acker the hand of the Prin- cess finstead of her h-ead, we betl in preference to giving it to Charles Filby, who, it was found out, kid- napped the Princess. What a plot- pfpoy with lots of romance! Then of course, the leading characters had to be supported by choruses. which consisted of the re- mainder of the boys and girls in the two junior high glee clubs. Whether you like it or not. Every:-ne will remember the slant- eyed Japanese boys who composed the mazculin-e chorus of th-e produc- tlcn. Especially will the short and plump Bobby Callison and Marty McGuire be remembered, who prca- vidsd many a laugh for the audience through th-eir clever antics and facial expressions. .An -examination of th-e roster of this glee club discloses that it was divided into three parts. Now don't take me the wrong way. I didn't mean good, bad, and indifferent, but low, medium, and high, according to the voices of the respective boys. One of the illustrious members of this organization was none other than the junior high basketball star, Robert Haggerton. Those who saw the operetta will remember him with the juinor high girls glee club, but sang before the district Hi-Y conference, which was held here in November. Among the rest of the glee club are to be found names that are well the high school activities. known in It is suspected that these people will continue to be seen and heard about the school during' the next few years.

Now you ask what all that has to do with the musical lf-oking bunch pictured on this page. Just this-these words have been set to music and this piece is the favon- ite, or theme song, of these people. Anyway, they play it as least three times each orchestra period. May we introduce to you the ad- vanced orchestra of the high school, directed by Mr. Phillip Olsson? You know what those words have to do with Joyce Kilmer, what he has to do with the music, and what that music has to do with the orchestra. Now we will find out what the or- che:tra has to do with life in the high school. If you can't understand this by now, we suggest you go back and read it again. Isn't that Sidney Platt we sec in the sixth row? Sidney is oftentimes known as Kingfish, He flddles with the clarinet but most of the time he doesn't do so badly. He is famous, also, for his lyceum announcements, in case some of you have hazy m-emorles. In fact, that is where he received the title of Kin9zflsh. Ask him to tell you more about it. Ncxt to this illustrious being we iind another similar creature, com- monly known as John Miller. In the orchestra John pounds the leathr- in other words, the drums. Another legther beater is Don Marston, who mars the picture there by Johnny. Ecn tried to break the head on the bass drums at the basketball games and other events. Coming' down the fifth row we find John Kamper Iirst tif you start counting from his side? as usual, es- p'cially if th-ere's anything to eat. Alto, there is Dorothy Morton, a violinist, if you pleass. Then here stands Ralph Dietrich with Jack Dur- ton, two of a kind. iBoth corn-ct players.J Now we come to the star of the organization, who is none other than Mr. Kriesler-ah, I mean Richard Swensson. They're both good violin- ists, anyway. Perhaps that is the reason I mixed them with each other. In the fourth row the shining lights are Patricia Eisenhower and Nellie Harvey, who both were soph- omores this year. The latter beats the drum and the former saws the bow. The little boy on the end of this row is Peter Rago, who also plays the violin. 'The orchestra does not have good manners. say some. Do you know why? Well, because they make Helen Chatham, whom you may locate in the third row, stand up every time they play. Never mind, I she only plays the bass viol and that accounts for the fact. Seriouzly, this organization has been of great help to old J. C. H. S. They played for the opcretta, dra- matic productions, and other pro'- grams. Th-Cy also went to the music ccntest and pulled down a superior rating. Much credit is due Mr. Ols- son, for the fine showing of the orchestra this year.

This is mentioned for the bene- fit of those who wondered what the noises. were that emerged from that Sanctum at said periods. These four young gentlemen whom you :ee in the front row are the four smallest boys in school. we think. That's unofficial, but they'l1 run anybody a close race. Beecher Iicklider, the second one from the left end is a drummer. It is said he was used as the mod-el for the pic- ture of The Drummer Boy. If you hai'en't seen it. get a copy today. Mall your name and address alone with-oh, pardon, please. We're getl ting off the subject which happened to be Beechie. H-e played in the band, too. That proves that he is good. Ask any band member. Jie Rosenfleld and Dan Loeb, the last two of the four, are famous for their tap dancing. yet they are in the orchestra, too. Each is quite an asset - or liability - whichever ycu prefer. While w-e are talking about tap dancing, we might mention Denzel Shilling seen in the second low. Where you have tap dancing you are brund to have the name Shilling. Denzel gave good service as a mem- ber of the orchestra, also. In this array of future musicians we also find William Merritt, who merits some consideration due to the fact that he sawed the bow across a violin all year long-and when have you seen him outside of school with- out his violin case? That's all right, William. Work hard and some day yzu'll be as great as Richard Swen- son or that Mr. Kriesler. Then there is Bill Bi-egiert, who was asked to leave the orchestra. Don't become alarmed, for it's n-ot as bad as you think. He was asked bv Mr. Phillip Olsson, director of this group, to play in the band during the second semester. Ilfence, the request for leaving.

The object of this elementary or- chestra is to train the students of junior high school, so that by the time they enter senior high they will be competent enough to cem- pete in the league music contests and other events of a 'similar' nature. This orchestra has not performed in public very much, but many things happin behind scenes, and some of you readers would be surprised at the talent Mr. Olsson finds among these mufic aspirants.

Now reader, don't become disgusted because it was only the daily query of the trombone players in the high school band, The snare drummers, Beecher Licklider and Pat Riney, with the bass drummer, LeRoy Gfeller, every now and then came to a difficult place in a piece of music, and Mr. Olsson found it necessary to go back to the drum section and proceed to show the drummers how to do it. Hence the query, Catch on Drums? by the trombones, Bill Halter, Arthur Hinkle, Bill Biegert, and Hoover Rupert. It soon became the password. byword, watchword, or sumpin' of the band. Led by the drum major, or minor, twhlchever you prefer? John Mill-er. the band entertained f?J the crowds at football and basketball games. The band led the parade be- fore the Concordia football game and surprised everybody, Cmost of all Mr. Olssonh by putting on an excellent performance. One thing about that parade--the whole town got the privilege of seeing how Harry Gamble and Henry Barker look when they blow their little tin trumpets. Whatta' Face. The only thing the crowd missed was Bill Smi- ley and his baritone tHe was out for footballlb Another treat for tl'e crowd was Johnny Miller prancing out in front of the band twirling a little stick with a ball on the end of it, He didn't do so badly at that. A person in the band. of whom the school has every reason to be proud, is Severo Cervera, who plays a clarinet, saocaphone, oboe, and most anything else that looks like a musi- cal instrument. Severo was the main- stay of the band this year leading the band in the absence of Mr. Ols- son, passing out and gathering up music, playing clarinet lsoloa. and other items too numerous to men- tion. Whoa! This is getting to sound like a public sale ad. Another versatile member of the band was John Kamp-er. Mr. Olsson could always count on Johnny for fourteen or fifteen saxalphone solos at the basketball games, whether he wanted them or not. That's all right, Johnny. In all seriousness, John really and truly could toot a mean tune on a saxaphone, and, when Bill Smiley found some of his parts a little tough, John went ov-er and helped him out. Then. the drum section must not be omitted from these ramblings. Le- rov Gfeller presided at the bass drum, with Beecher Licklider and Pat Riney at the snares. Regardless of all their n1ist?kes. twe all make mistakes? they turned out a prety good years work. even if Mr. Olsson had to show them how to play once in a while. Then, of course there were the reliable trombones,-oh yeah!-Bill Halter, Hoover Rupert, Arthur Hinkle, and Bill Bieeert, who were always tormenting the drums and everyone in general. This included Ralph Filby, who wound the sousa- phone around his neck every Mon- day, Thursday and Friday mornings. Say, Ralph, did you ever get all the paperwads, apples cores and other debris out of your nom? Now how do you suppose it all got th-ere? We suggest you ask the trombone play- ers. As far as the work of the band is concerned, the year was successful. The band helped create pep at the gem-es and played ln Une music con- test at Clay Center. Much time was spent in practicing for this contest. At the time this article was being written it was not known how the band placed in the league contest, but we wager that they didn't dis- grace themselves.

Birds were singing and here and there in the sky clouds could be seen sailing lazily by. This is not a. fairy tale, folks, but only a de- scription of Apirl 14, the day on which the Jay musicians sauntered forth to Clay Center and came back with m tie with the same town for flrst place in the North Central Kansas League music contest. Some left at the early hour of 6'30. Carl Smythe is still yawning! Others left at 10 ofclockg and then there were groups leaving all the rest of the day. All, however, were setting out for Clay Center. Strange as it may seem, all of them got there within a short time, except Ruby McCaffrey, who got lost and found herself up in Nebraska, but as for returning' home after the contest-well, that's a different story. At any rate, the said musicians ar- rived on the scene and prepared to battle with the high schools of the league by Hguzzling cokes and other concoctions in order to be fit as a fiddle and ready for singing. The first ones on the scene were the soloists who were to perform at 9:30. Practice sessions followed and then the big solo events, with Junc- tion City carrying off her share of the high rankings came next. To begin with we have the Great words, Carl Smythe, in other Smythe, who, with his pal from Clay place in the Center, tied for first boys low voice section singing Rose both neccived By the way, In the Bud.

In the solo events highly superior received ten points, superior eight points, excellent six points, good four points, and fair two points. In the group events the points were doubled. At any rate Cthat's supposed to be a pun, folks? Smythe told something to the writer which is not known generally but soon will be. Carl and his Clay Center friend had agreed that if one of them beat the other there would be a+ free-for-all. .As it happened they tied: and so we don't know who would have come out on top if such a situation had develop- ed. Urged on by Jennette Kerr and one other member of the weaker sex iguess whol Arthur Zernickow show- ed the audience his tonsils for does he have anyl and came out triumph- ant in the boys high voice variety with a rating of good. Arthur's solo was The Silver Ring. Then in the instrumental solos we find that Lester Bowles with his little tin trombone took first place in that section with at superior rating. Bowles was another of the 6:30 leavers and is still yawning. For the benefit of those who do not know how Lester swallows that slide every time he brings it up, the only suggestion we have to make is that they take up ln the techinque of trombone playing? Also there was Severo Cervera, star clarlnetist. Heretofore, in the league contests Cervera has never received less than a highly superior rating: and in the opinion of all the Junc- tion City folks who heard him at this contest and ln previous contests. he had never been better than he was on this occasion, but he re- ceiwed only a superior ranking, tying with two other entries. Anyway, Cervera, we're mighty proud of you and that superior ranking. Io and behold! We next find the one and on-ly John Kampzr, saxa- phonlst, pianist, baritcfnist, and lots of other Mists. However, in this case he was the saxaphonist. John placed first ln this division with a rating of excellent. The car which was driven by John arrived safely and returned home just as safely. How- ever, Monday all that was wrong with the car was a couple of bent fenders, a flat tire, and other things too numerous to mention. No one was injured: and so all is well. Up to this time only the masculine entries have been mentioned. Now to give the girls the limelight. Eloise Baker sawed a bow across the viola strings to gain a rating of excellent, which was sufficient to give her first place in the event. Then, wherever you find music mentioned you find Vesta Wood and this is no exception. Vesta was pre- sent and received a superior ranking on the violin, entitling her to ai tie for first place in this section. This concludes the winners in the solo sections. Other soloists who entered and their ratings are: Boys medium voice, Lester Bowles, excellentg girls low voice, Delphlne Gifeller, good: girls medium voice, Hair-pardon-Wilma Irion, excel- lcntg girls high vozce, Mary Louise Hcavey, excellent. In the instrumental solos, Edith Roeslar received superior in piano, John Case excellent in French horn, and Charles Zoschke excellent in French baritone. All of the groups directed by Miss Mary Wilson received ratings of superior, except the mixed chorus, which received highly superior. The groups receiving superior were the boys quartet, which won first for their division, girls quartet, boys glee club, and the gms glee club. The latter two both tied for first place as did the mixed chorus. In the lnstrumenal groups, the string quartet won first place and received the ranking of highly superior and also received the com- pliment that it was the best high school string quartet the judge had ever heard in Kansas. The brass quartet received an excellent rating and placed first also. The orchestra and band, under the direction of Mr. Phillip Olsson, both received the ratings of superior. Much credit is due Miss Wilson and Mr. Olsson for bringing to the high school a tie for first with Clay Center in this music contest. Many long hours were spent in preparation for the event and the school is justly proud of the music department for chalking up the victory in the league contest. of , W? 1311111 - llllnfu 43 l ., .. .. , a .

The most successful squad in many years. gi DEBATE L lst row: Mrs. Miller, Mary Jean Gr-entner, Wilma Iri-on, Susan Mor- ton. 2nd row: Mr. Wa.rd, Henry Barker, Harry Gamble, Hoover Rupert. By winning the District Debate Championship and placing second in the North Central Kansas League tournament, the debate squad chalked up the most successful season in many years. It was th-e first time since 1925 that a debate team from Junction had won the district contest entitling' the the team to enter the state tournament. The debate squad was greatly handicapped by the sudden death of its coach, Robert K. Heald. Follow- ing' his death, which occurred in the middle of the preparation season, Mr. Carrol K. Ward and Mrs. Bertha. Mil- ler were appointed as coaches to carry on Mr. Heald's work, and it seems as tlioiiqli they have done a mieghty good job of it. Congratula- tions, coaches. The first debate of the year was held with Herington, and Henry Bar- l-:er and Harry Gamble fervently plead the cause of the affirmative, while Wilma Irion and Hoover Ru- pert bally-hooed for the negative side of the question-Resolved: That the United States should adopt a systzm of radio control based on the essential features of the British sy- stem. Following this another debate was held with Chapman. Next th-e squad journeyed to Albi- lene fwith grunts and groans all the way! Seven in Barker's Ford. What a tripi. The next day Abilene came to Junction with the same lineup for both tcwns, except that Susan Mor- ton debate negative in place of Ru- pert. The next debate was held with Manhattan. there, with Barker and 'Gamble on the aifirmative and Mor- ton and Irion on the negative. No remarks. please, about th-e oar' used on the trip. CHint: It was a Paige? On the afternoon of Feb. 14 the squad presented to the school a valentine in the form of second plac-e in the league, giving' them twelve points on the sweepstakes lcafgue. The trip. up to Clay Center was made without difficulty, much to the surprise of those in the Morton car. Upon arriving it was learned that each team was to debate twice. The affirmative, with the usual Barker- Gamble combination defeated Clay Center and Beloit. The negative com- bination of Irion-Rupert debated Brlleville and Morton-Rupert debated Marysville. When all the points were compiled, it was found that Belleville placed first and Junction second. It was also found that Henry Barker, that quiet, serious. unassuming chap. had tied for nrst place in individual honors, much to his own surprise, but not to Mr. Ward's and Mr. Mil- ler's. CS-tnange, isn't lt?J Congr- tulations, Henry. x Having placed second in the league, the team set forth to see what they could stir up at the district tourna- ment at Salina. Well, they stirred pretty hard and got out of it first place, winning five debates and losing three. The affirmative combination, Bar- ker and Gamble, won two and lost two. Morton and Rupert won two and Irion and Rupert won one and lost cne. While there, Rupert dropped half of his rebuttal cards on the floor in one debate and was not aware of it until the debate was over. All in all the season was termed highly successful by the coaches, de- b?ters and students. The one thing that shadows their highly successful year is the fact that Mr. Heald is not here to share with them their honors. One is certain that he would be mighty proud of them. again - iiiiinfu 45 Around the editing table - BLUE JAY The Blue Jay, weekly publication of the department of journalism, had its ups and downs this year but managed to make its debut every week, by the incessant prodding. ad- vice, and encouragement of Mr. Ray Heady, journalism instructor, to the journalist aspirants. This year Mr. Heady became ex- ceedingly generous, or sympathetic, and divided the year into four quar- ters and chose an editor for each one. To Susan Morton fell the lot of ,being the one to pave the way for the next three editors. Helen Bell came nextg and then Henry Barker took his turn. ,After these, the inevitable assistant editor, Eugene Kuhn, who heretofore had spent most of his time telling the editors how a newspaper should be published, was allowed to strut his stuff and put out the paper for one issue. Kuhn is the guy who is very, very tempermental. After Kuhn had washed his hands of the editorship, Margaret Coleman took over the helm of the already three-fourths wrecked ship and fin- ished the job. Business and advertising managers remained the same throughout the year, Pauline Kramer and Josephine Peterson filling these positions re- spectfully-oh, pardon-respectively. Jennette Kerr was society editor. Harry Gamble was the high power- ed sports editor on the staff and managed some fairly good sport pages -that is, when Coleman left them alone. On Monday. Thursday, and Friday afternoons after school, the editor, assistant editors, and sports editor gathered around the editing table in room 203 and edited the news which they and the remaining cub re- porters had brought forth from their pencil writing. Each turn of pulling his or her hair. froth- ing at the mouth and patiently l?l reprimanding some brilliant cub who had forgotten to write a head for his story or who didln't remember that there was ever such a thing as a style rule. Oh, what a life! However. various and sundry other things took place around the editing other than merely editing. On the afternoon that Mr. Heady left the staff to sink or swim without his puiding personality and went to Pittsburg to be married, a regular sham battle was participated in by the staff with the contents of the paste jar for ammunition. Kuhn was usually good for at least two arguments a week, and he al- ways found Helen Bell or Margaret Coleman ready to come back at him. But through it all, the staff points as specimens of their of the four editors had their managed to edit the paper and get it into the hands of the students by 3 : i 5 -every Wednesday. The class in general wasn't such a had lot. except when they forgot the heads and buried their 'earls and did other such terrible things, which wzs u ually most of the time. Once in awhile they did ao into a trance and turn out some fairly decent cfpy. As a little extra. exparlence :for them, Mr. Heady blasted the funda- mentals of the feature story through the skulls of the hopeful journalists and then turned them loose on a bunch of assignments, telling them to write them as feature stories. These masterpieces were written for the Daily Union's 75th Anniversary of Junction City section and con- cerned Junction and her growth and happenings during the last 75 years. The reporters delved into the past and the results weren't so terribly bad. Mr. Harry Montgomery, editor of the Union, complimented the class and Mr. Heady on the way in which the stories were handled and said that as a whole they were very good. By-lines were received on all the feature stories and maybe you don't think those journalists weren't proud of their names at the top of their stories. Made them feed as good as an A. B. McDonald or an Arthur Brisbane, perhaps. 45 lgofn - 'iiiiinfn X A lovely addition to your garage.

Whlffletree, the an- ncuncem-ent that the Pow Wow had been chosen as the finest. most ela- borate, and by far the most unique yearbook printed in the Junction City high sch-ool this year. Mutlitudes of people thronged the streets, anxious to hear the decision of the judges. The crowd was un- aware that standing in their midst were the staff members, their faces ashen gray drawn, and anxious. It was a touching scene. When the word spread that the verdict was 116311 the mobs of humanity filled every inch of spice in the gigantic amphitlieatre of-- cupied daily by the Dunedin stock exchange. The cattle had been re- moved for the day. The crowd push- ed frrrward. Tense silence prevailed as the committee room door opened and a uniform-ed figure emerged. Mr. Schnozzle stepped forth and in a f-ew seconds had made thc pro- nouncement that the Pow Wow had been edjudged the winner. Margaret Coleman, hard working editor, who had slav-ed night and day for weeks, collapsed and was rushed to the nearest hospital. At the hospital, after restoratives had keen administered, she was asked to speak to her many radio admirers and a mic1'ophone was placed at her bedside. Hello, Mom, she gasped, we won!

However, that's neither here nor there, and has nothing to do with the attempts of various students in good, old-fashioned drammer. As the all-school play opened the dramatic season, So snail lt open this conglomerated mess-oh, pardon.- mass of type. The Clean-Up, the story of women and politics, was presented by a cast, almost wholly unexperi-enced. Dec. 14-15. They started the routine of learning lines and the practice of walking across the stage without falling down, and they were entirely green. A few weeks before the audi- ence assembled to view this specta- cular presentation, they had been toned down to an apple-green yellow. and by the time of thier starting of their actual 2-day run, they were- vmll, sky-blue pink. You see, not green at all. All four upper classes were repres- ented someplace in the cast-even the freshman. iEditor's note: Perhaps this accounts for some of the afore- mnintioned greennessl The part of the leading lady, whose name was Nina Buckmaster, was played -by Mildred Saulmon. She is one of those persons with political ambitions. Nina twe :mow her too well to call her Mrs. Buckmasterh was a candidate for mayor! She is the headstrong, self-sufficient type of woman who would hate to have people think she is controlled by her huzbnnd, although she loves him. As a result she accepts the nomination without his consent and tries to hide her sorrow when the unforgiving man takes up his residence at the city hotel. The gentleman with the funny ideas as to a woman's place, John Buckmaster ihester Bowles, to you! is as much in love with his wife as she is with him, He proves thk by uphfilding her honor in a ight with a local banker and by appearing on the scene election night. In addition to being angry with is wife, he is very much disgusted by her brother, toward whom he tosses several elo- quent remarks. The name Willie brings to mind the picture of a small boy wearing short trousers and a Lord Fauntleroy co'lar. But-you're fooled! Willie is Nina Buckmaster's brother - that man f?l who promotes so much dis- gust in his brother-in-law's mind. Under Arthur O'Donnell's interpret- ation, Willie is a versatile Archibald or Percival, or in John Buckmaster's words, a tea-hound. Willie even has a mustache. tEditor's note: How did he ever get the strength to grow one?5 All in all. he is a most ef- frminfate type of gentleman. Arthur is one of the more experienced mem- bers of thc cast.,h Another seasoned actor, James Riqps, was Butch McKenna, the peanut eating, derby wearing, boss of the first ward. Hiding behind a checkered suit and a. barberry bush on his upper lip. James was so hand- some! And what a. poisonality! Butch becomes the feminine candi- date's campaign manager, much to the disapproval of her women com- patriots. He proceeds to lead her a merry chase. Sometimes he seems as good as gold and then again he's as crooked as a corkscrew. The m-embers of the upper KI Oh, my deah, you dont say! Hundred, or something, who first sug- gested that Nina run for mayor, are Mrs. Clifl Collender, Mrs. Amos Woodruff, and Mrs. Lucretia Assivell. These parts were played by Ann Calkin, Patricia Eiseunower, and Louise Blaker, respectively. These wcm-in are of the type commonly known as cats. They later with- draw their support and do all they could to defeat their former friend. Beverly Steadman, another actor of previous experience, was standing in th shoes of Brooks Caldwell when he was on the receiving end of Mr. Buckmaster's strong right arm. Iln other words, he got a shiner, a bfack eye. Mr. Caldwell is a banker, yes sir! And does he know his busi- ness? Well, not as well as he thinks he does. No candidate for public office can get along without some publlcltyg and so Elizabeth Madison, a young newspiper reporter, supplied that. It was she too, who stood by her friend in the election. By the way, the part of this efficient young lady was play- ed by Cynthia Martin. ..x . -. ----, -T -T-H-TT-T .-4 .-T s-. .1-.-. .Q-.-, :T-Tr-7-71-5217 3 JUNIOR PLAY 'l l L The Three Gracias. The Thnee Graces, given as the junior class play, revealed college life and retold the tale of the age- triangle. You knowlthe rah! r:h! stuff and, in this case, two women and a man. This production, according to the Blue Jay, taught the inside heart throbs of a college, its students, its football, and its faculty. Yes, sir! All that for a measly two-bits. a quarter. one- fcurth of a dollar. Step right up, folks. Tickets, please. The Three Graces is the name of a tea-room owned by students and Datronized by students of Hargate c'll-ege, Batesville. It was formerly and old mansion to which Nancy Marshall, an orphan, fell heiress. Nancy is the type of girl who al- ways is in lov-e with someone. This time however, it is the real thing. She is in love with Bob Nordyke, a football hero and lady killer. Nancy, or Genevieve Cooper, has little money and fewer clothes, and she feels that without beautiful apparel she will never be able to attract Bob. When her grandfather wills her his old mansion in Batesville, she 'tlooks a gift horse in the mouth and declares it is a white elephant. While Nancy is wondering' what to do with the house, one of her two cliums, Sarah Chadsey, suggests that the three of them tum the place into a tea-room. After rather dubiously pondering the ideal, they decide that it is a practical one, and they soon have their tea-room functioning. 45 llgnfu - main All the girls expect great things of their venture, and all are very ambitious for it. Harriet, Holmes, Elizabeth Hannah, loves books, art, and travel. She desires to travel in Europe on her share of the proceeds. Sarah Chadsey, Patricia Johnson, has a luxurious nature. She wants to be a social butterfly, recline on a divan, and eat French pastry. And, of course, Nancy wants smart clothes with which to lure Bob into her trap. Bob Nordyke, the hero of this drama, was portrayed by Karl Lun- dven, a. big, blonde Swede. He is Hargate's star football player, and they depend on him to beat Kenton in the annual Hargate-Kenton game. He seems attracted by Nancy's charm, despite the lack of beautiful clothes, but the vlllainess has her claws upon him. Every time Bob finds himself alone with Nancy and tries to tell her of his feelings, he is interrupted by this bold woman. This designing' woman, Eloise Smythe, iEditor's note: Bet it was Smith originallyl seems bent on ruining Nancy. This part is played by Faith Foster, incidentally, She is a rich, snobblsh senior who winds Bob around her little finger, so to speak, by means of her lavish ward- rcbe expensive roadster, and brilliant red hair. She is forever attended by her cat's p'w, Edna Carr, Vesta Wood, who tries to be just like Eloise, but suc- ceeds in being only her shadow. Eloise and Edna find Bob eating one of Sarah's waffles and tell the Coach. who is Floyd Fansler, that he has broken training. By this means, Eloise hopes to force Nancy to close her tea room and go away, thus leaving Bob in her clutches. Scoop Davis, a. cub reporter on the college newspaper, who is much enhanced by Sarah's charms, gets the story before anyone else. He turns it in to the paper, and the story gets a big play-up. The part of this aspiring writer is played by Rex G-ish, who really wrrtes-sometimes. iAfk Mr. Heady.J The whole affair arou-tes a great deal of criticism among the student body, and the Three G-races. as the girls are often called, feel that they will have to close up shop for lack of busi- ness. But came the dawn-or rather Horace Babson, the English professor, steps into the affair. He has been silently admiring Harriet from afar, and now jumps at the chance to do her a good turn. Harvey McVey is this young' intellectual. He gets Miss Price, the domestic science teacher. Maxine Foveaux in person, to aid him. She examines one of Sarah's waf- fles and declares them entirely dig- rstible. When Floyd Fansler, in the shoes of Coach Tanner, learns this, he immediately reverses his decision that Bob must get off the team. When this is announced, hopes rise for a victory over Kenton, and Nancy gets her man--or rather, her man's fraternity pin. Perhaps the most noted perform- ance was glven by Patricia Johnson, as Sarah Chadsey. As the lisping third of the Three Graces she played her part to perfection and delighted the audiences with her ci-ev-er handling of the part, and the ease she possessed would do credit ot one old-er and more experienced. .1i1X - , SENIOR PLAY 5 l r. '21-nh LEEEEL L-A-Lu-:EE L-22211-L ' ' ' To the Ladies. The climax of the dramatic season came with the senior play-fat least, it's supposed to come then. The soon- to-become-alumnus class persented To the Ladies on April 19-20. This was the tale of a woman's influence in her husba.nd's business affairs. Elsie Beebe has been married to Leonard Beebe only six months. lEdi- tor's note: Wonder if this is a. prog- nottication or anything? The parts are plaved by Mildred Hoyt and Lfster Christohpem She is fired with ambition to help her husband become a success in lif-e and business, which affiliates him with the John Kincaid Pi no Company. When his big chance to make good comes, he is to make a speech at the annual dinner given by Mr. Kincaid, the head of the flrm. Leo- nard when he receives the Invitation to attend is told that he will ha.ve to make a speech. He purchases a book entitled Speeches for All Oc- casions and proceeds to find him a suitable speech. However, Tom Blaker, Sidney Platt, rival of Leonard's for the position of secretary to Mr. Kincaid and head clerkship has the same ideal, prepares the same canned speech that Leo- nard chooses, and has the luck of be- in called on first. Mrs, Beebe recognized her oppor- tunities, arises quickly, and makes the excuse that her husband has developed laryngltls. She, however, makes a speech, which obtains the job for Leonard. In the office a few months later, Tcm Baker discloses to John Kin- caid, the boss, that Leonard had not written the speech his wife made. Mr. Kincaid, who is a middle-aged, dignified man, Wayne Riley, in a very pompous manner demotes Leonard. He says that any man who is in airy way moulded or contralled by his wife has no place of import- ance in his firm. Elsie discovers that Mrs. Beebe, Arlene Roberts, has great influence over her husband-helps him in im- portant decisions, and tells him l.-ow to run his business. With this know- ledge lt is a comparatively easy mat- ter to persuade him to restore Leo- nard to his former position. And then there was Chest-er Mul- len, with all his vaudeville ideas which he finally gets to present to his boss, also Mr. Kincaid, but which do him no good. Carl Smythe, who Ways this part, practically steals the whole show with is usual clever antics and his always expressive evcbrows. Anything written about the year's dramatic season would be most :ln- some mention of who coached this crmplete without that guiding light year's three plays-Miss Ethel Hinds. Miss Hind's is thre battles with one another, tells the members they are from the worst cast that ever walked cnto the high school stage, and heaves a- huge sigh of relief when the curtain closes on the last act. This year's dramatic season has been highly successful, Although it is hard to admit it Cfor the writer is a senior and ai member of To the Ladies 7 the junior class play, The Three Gracesf' took the laurels as far as the three productions are concerned. In this play the clever acting of Patricia' Johnson drew generous re- sponses from two enthusiastic audi- ences. To the Ladies and The Clean- up, however, drew their share of the honors, although it must be- ad- mitted that The Three Grades undoubtedly drew the most applause by its clever lines, good acting, and pleasing plot.

BASKETBALL J . 'iii L 2.E3l-fElii'iLiEJ.i L- Swish! And once again the leather sphere drops through the net as the Blue Jay quintet chalks up another North Central Kansas League basket- ball championship. The Jays record of games won and lost is the best ever recorded by a Junction team. Henry A. Shenk, Jay mentor, de- serves a great deal of praise, for he has been coach of basketball but three years and two of these have been championship seasons for the Jays. With Everett Lallis, Negro center, as the main cog in the Jay scoring machine the Junction tive downed the Irish 31-28 in the opening game of the season. Lallis turned in 16 points during the tilt. This is only live points below the record held jointly by Kenneth Shane and Don McKellar. In the game in which the Blues overwhelmed the post-grads by a 35-13 score Lallis achieved the scor- ing record on the Jay squad for this season. He scored 1'l of the 35 tallies but after these two games he dropped from the list of hlgn scorers. In the first league conflict of the year the Marysville Bulldogs crumpled before the Jay attack and lost 1'1- 30. Reuben Hammond, Junction guard, took the laureis in this fray. Then and not until then did the team meet any real competition. The Beloit boys staged a. rally that nearly proved serious to the Juntcion team, The score by quarters was 1-0, 3-1, 4-3 and 14-8, always favoring the Blues. Scott Caes and Reuben Ham- mond were players of outstanding ability in this combat. By administering a thorough troun- cing to the Concordia Panthers the Blue Jays were able to keep their path to the league title clear. The Jays took this fray easily, winning by a 35-17 score. One of the peculiar- ities of this game was the fact that Jays score Was double that of the the Panthers at the end of each period. The Blues met their first defeat at the hands of the Bulldogs on the Marysville court when Talbot. Bull- dog forward, whipped the ball through the net with less than a minute to go to win 15-13. However, they wiped out this by walloping the Buffaloes 21-14 ln a thrilling game on me northern court. The Belleville players nad an aver- age of two inches in height on the Jays but this proved of no avail. In the Clay Center struggle Shorty McKellar began to hit his regular stride and the Jays sailed through to a 21-18 victory. Shorty hand-ed the Jays 12 points just to prove that his old-ime form was back. By decisive victories over Beloit and Concordia the Blue Jay quintet upheld one of its sacred traditions. This tradition, set several years pre- vicus, is that the Jays wln both of their games on the northern trip. Belclt fell, 30-19, and Concordia fall:-ered to lose 23-15. The Manhattan Baby Wildcats then routed the Jays in a mid-season game on the Junction court and won 36-14. This is the worst drubb- ing any Jay team ever received. The Clay Tigers stole up on the unwary Jays to win the second Clay- Junction tilt by a 28-24 score in an overt'me period. Klauman, Tiger cent-er, accounted for sixteen points ol' the Clay tallles. l lst row: Hammond, E. Lallis, Bowles, S. Case, Day, Durand, McKellar. 2nd row: Rago, Blessing, Kerby, Ervin, Barker, Noches, Smiley, Coach Shenk. 3rd row: Gerlecz, Kirkpatrick, Hood, Murphy, 1. Case, Tibbetts, Gamble, Goodlett. EU lgnfu - mum Durand Case jameson Day Then, as the society editor of the Blue Jay puts lt, The Jays played host, to Abilene cagers, incidentally winning. iA-s a matter of fact this was no incidental victory but one well earned. Incidentally the hosts won 34-29. In quick succession followed a triumph sought, by Jay cagers for the past six years, For six years the Wildcats have reigned supreme on their home court, but the Jays knocked them off by a decisive 33- 25 wln. Won't be beat, can't be beat! With a determination to do or die the Blue Jays trouped onto the Junction court to do the Buffaloes in a. 35-15 combat. Fenlon Durand played an excellent game at forward and scored fifteen points during his stay in the game. Although the Jays might, still have been champions had they lost, they took no chances and sewed up the title for the second consecutive sea- son. To top all of this off the team en- tered the regional basketball tourna- ment held at Salina. The Blues again walloped the Irish, 35-25. but lost to Salina 20-25, in the semi-final round of the meet. This is perhaps the best record hung up by any Junction cage team and it was one of the toughest schedules, The first team won thir- teen games and lost but four.

This year, however, the future Blue Jays proved themselves ,better broncs than the Cowboys and were riders by a 21-18 victory. And now the juniors did a little shellacing of their own.

The members are older but oftentimes the junior members tak-e the laurels when it comes to the abservance of the health rules. However, this club has as is had as good a. group of girls to be found in the school, and many of their members have been out- standing in the participation and direction of intramul-as sports.

Not with the well known football hero csntinually camping on the doorstep. BV the way, maybe that is why Swede dropped the club for the second semester.

Believe one who knows, she has set plenty of pre- cedents all right, Then. to keep the viTicial records of the club, Elizabeth Hannah was elected secretary.

Ag k rx v A '22-e..H 'QL-4-L-1.-1-L-' '-i -- f- 'ww f-L-Y-J The Gi1'l's Athletic Association is representative of healthy, outdoor girls, who have as their ideals, a cleen mind and body and a strong ccnstitution. The junior club is composed of seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. It is not so easy to be a G-. A. A. as one might, think, because to be a true on-e, one sometimes has to play the martyr' in the ways of giving up delicacies. These girls have to be so altruistic that they cannot eat candy between meals, nor cokes, nor dips. How very, very true are those who can resist something cool and refreshing or sweet. But, there is one alternative, how-ever. They can have fruit between meals. You know, a good old apple cr a jolly old orange to appease the hunger. And how very, very clean they must be. Three baths every week is a G. A. A. girls quota. Of course there are no limitations on the num- ber. but three is all that is necessary to gain points for awards. QA. challenge is given every G. A. A. girl concerning the number of hours she sleeps. Perhaps the seventh gra- edrs abide by the rules, but alas, it is not thought that the eighth and ninth graders are as faithful to the 1'ule, for they are supposed to re- pose on their feather beds in deep slumber for fully ten hours, begin- ning not later than ten o'clock at right. This means the giving up of dates after ten o'clock, staying away from parties after ten o'clock, and worst of all, not being able to study after ten o'clock. Ah! the cruelty of life. But why worry? They at least have a beauty rest at the rate of ten hours sleep per night. When they arise from that sweet slumber. they must wash their teeth. It is hoped that they all do. for white teeth is the mainstay of beauty, so the well-known radio announcers say, And then the girls have to wash their teeth once again osme time during the day. Also, their drinking capacity is tested by the requirement that they drink eight glasses of water a day. Not bad, a little oiw, out not bad. Besides complying with certain in- dulgences and the prohibition of others, the girls merit points for basketball, volleyball, and If they walk, skate, or run playing baseball. so many miles, down goes some lnore merits. All of the compliances are kept and recorded on a weekly health slip. At the end of eight weeks, if they have a requisite number of points, they are in line for awards. The junior club has been especially active, for the members go out for it in a' big way. It has inspiring officers, who have performed their duties efficiently and have enterd into the spirit of the association. These officers are: Presi- d:-nt, Lorrayne Shepardsong secretary, Madeline Brockmang treasurer, Al- dine Spessard. The junior club has deserved re- cognition by the school for their pincipals and ideals and their com- pliance with them. One thing nice about junior high people-they are very conscientious about doing what they are supposed to do. Therefore you have everything in a nut shell, the reason for the success of this club. It has been a success not only through the efforts of the group lt- self bvt by the perseverance and the wil'ingness of cooperation of Miss Hellen Elling, martyr to the cause of health. These young G. A, A. members should well be complimented on their successful year. Here they are: lst row: Marguerite Blazier, Fran- ces Hall, Jean Humphrey, Nadine Patterson.

The first project which the Girl Reserves took upon themselves was the Bock Exchange. The club acted as a medium through which students could buy and sell their school books. In the Humphrey and Morton auto- mobiles, the eight ,cabinet members and their sponsors bumped merrily along to the District Girl Reserve conference held at Minneapolis. Nov. 10. ll. and 12. They all returned en- thusiastic over Mrs. Port-er Brown of Salina, old glass and china, plans for the coming year, Minneapolis, and a little black kittten. They sug- gest that future delegates to con- ferences learn how to change tires. How about a date to the G. R. nartv? one girl asked another. As there are nearly four times as many Girl Reserve members as Hi-Y boys. plans for a- party with the Hi-Y club had to be abandoned. Accordingly, some of the girls dressed as boys and the G. R.'s had aparty anyway. Attire. ranging all the way from a full dress suit to a pair of overalls, was on exhbition. .As a Thanksgiving project, the ser- vice committee directed the collection of food to fill baskts for the needy. Gaily dressed dolls thrilled femin- ine hearts and masculine looking tool sets made excited little boys want to go out and make something at the G. R. Christmas party given for some of the more unfortunate young- sters of the community on Dec. 18. The cabinet was composed of Helen Bell, presidentg Margaret Col-e- man, vice-president: Elizabeth Han- nah, s-ecretary. and Pauline Kramer. treasurer. Barbara I-iunii-rey served as program chairman, Mary Eliza- beth Barnett as social chairman. Susan Morton as service chairman. and Alverta Marston as publicity chairman.

When the members were not hoping and planning for the Northeastern District Hi-Y conference, they were selling tickets for the father-son banquet or wondering when the many times postponed party would finally occur. Little did the boys of this enter- prising group realize what they were getting into when they planned to entertain the Hi-Y clubs of the north- eastern district, Nov. 22-24. With the entrance of nearly 350 boys on the scene, the girls of the city re- joiced. In spite of it all, however, with the aid of th-e junior Hi-Y club, the conference was pronounced a success by the local organizations, and to quote one boy from a small town, I never had so good a time before. Incidentally, the theme of the con- ference was Adventurous Living in This Ag-e. Money. that necessary evil, was consplcio-us by its absence from the club coffers. In order to reme this, a candy stand was establis dd at rived from this source will be used to send members of the club to Camp Wood this summer. Have a good time and a' nice sunburn, boys! The need for more salads and pies indicated the success of the annual father-son banquet, at which the two Hi-'Y clubs and Boy Scouts of Junction City and Fort Riley were hosts. The principal speaker of the even- ing was Judge Will Miller of Salina. Various members of the Hi-Y and Boy Scout groups assisted with short talks. This repast was held in the boys gym. Feb. 8. That freak, Mother Nature, was responsible for many things which blighted the hopes of the young swains and their lady-friends. One sunshiny day, the boys con- fidently announced that when the ice fr-sezes over, we're going to have an ice-skating party. Finally a snowy. blustery, cold day happened alone and the event was scheduled for the morrow. Lo and behold!

Members of the club served with representatives from the senior or- ganization on the committees ap- pzlnted to take care of the local side of the conference. The junior Hi-'Y, with the senior club and the Boy Scout organization, in accordance with their annual cus- tom, entertained their fathers at a father-son banqu-et. The banquet was termed successful in spite of the fact that places were arranged for only 150 and more than 200 attended. That's all right, you extra 50 or so, you 9015 ice cream and the rest only got pie. The cabinet and the sponsors, Mr. Vict-or Clough and Mr. Edmond Dailey, worked out a system of pro- gram planning which was thought to be VEIY effective. The programs were planned by months and during each month a general topic was discuss'- ed. A different phase of that parti- cular subject was talked about dur- ing each meeting. On several oc- casions outside speakers were secur- ed. Each member of the club was as- signed to a committee, one of which had charge of the meetings for one month. This plan was very success- ful in that each member was given a chance to help with the program, thug lifting the load from the shoul- ders of a few. Anotsr project carried on by the club was the sale of candy in the halls each afternoon aft-er school for the benefit of the students. Each b:y served one week during the year, selling the candy. The money fwh-en it could be collected--paging Floyd Wiley and 'Richard Swessonl was added to that received from the pro- fits from the lyceums and will be used this summer to send members of the club to Camp Wood, the state Hi Y camp at Elmdale, Kas. The sponsors of this club were assisted by an efficient cabinet. Presson Shane served as president, and we might say that Presson was a real stem winder and deserves praise for his excellent conductance of this office. Bill Wenger worked very -efficiently as vice-president. Robert Haggerton took care of the money as treasurer and Dan LaShel1e locked after the records as secre- tary. Raymond McKellar held the posi- tion of program chairman, Keith Schmedeman as Bible study chair- man, and Charles Schultz as service chairman.

However, most of these have just one realm to consider. But thiere ls one that tak-es both brain and brawn and that is none other than the National Scholastic Athletic Honor Society, and the honor is as big as the name. Entrance into this membership of this society is gained through making one letter in a major sport or two letters in ai minor sport. Besides this, the entrant must be in the upper one-third of the class scholastlcally for three consecutive semesters. The membership in this society disproves the saying that you can't participate in athletics and at the same time maintain a high scholastic record, for this is just what the fol- lowing members have done. The members and the sport ln which they lettered follows: Scott Case, basketball: Paul Ed- wards. football, Howard I.-angvardt, football and track. These three were elected into the society last year- The members elected this year are: James Rupe, football: Mac Jones, track: Charles Zoschke, track, Ralph Ferris, football, Nolan Day, football: Donald Marston, trackg Fenlon Dun-1 and, basketball and track, Bill In- sley, track: and Rater Rago, football.

Friday afternoon to Pittsburg where his bride awaited him. They were married that Sunday and now reside at the Montgomery apartments. Before Mr. Heady left to be married it was found that, although he was about to take the fatal step, the jour- nalistic spirit still burned within his soul, as he wrote the account of the wedding for the Blue jay, prognosti- cating as how the ceremony was to be. Here is the article that he wrote with a thumping heart and unsteady fingers: Professor and Mrs. I. G. Wilson of Pittsburg, announce the wedding at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon of their youngest daughter, Miss Eleanor Wil- son, to Mr. Ray Heady, journalism instructor, at the home of the bride's parents. The single ring ceremony was used, strictly for economic reasons, and the bridal pair left for a brief honeymoon to Kansas City after the ceremony. The honeymoon was brief, also for economic reasons. The bride wore a new going-away dress of attractive ma- terial, but the bridegroom was attired in the same suit he had worn for the past year. It was, however, neatly pressed. Dr. R. Smith, an instructor at Kansas State Teachers college, where Professor Wilson is head of the English depart- ment, officiated and the usual nominal fee was thus kept within the immedi- ate proximity of the state of Kansas. Mr. and Mrs. Heady will be at home to their friends at the Montgomery apartments sometime in February. The apartment is a small one, and guests are urged to bring their own chairs and leave all cats and dogs at home. The return trip to lunction City was made Monday in the car of the bride. Mr, Heady's car needed a new pair of piston rings. Tl-e whole event proceeded with un- usual smoothness until,during a hurried departure from Pittsburg two jumps ahead of a collector, one of the guests only immediate relatives. 1.-X - T OFFICE HOURS Why were you late? Where is your pending excuse? Mr. Vineyard is busy now. PrincipaI's office! These expressions are heard a thou- sand and one tor maybe two! times a day in the sanctuary of Mrs. Gladys Shepardson, secretary to Principal Jerry J. Vineyard. She doles out some excuses, and take in Cbut doesn't always swallowj others. And-she is extraordinarily generous when it comes to hours of detention . Detention for you- She insists that each student who takes a day off bring a written excuse for his absence. And - - if none is pro- Hmm-W m 53 duced, detention for you, buddy. But this firey-haired guard of the inner office is not even half as stern as this sounds, and her bark is worse than her bite. She merely has to enforce th.: rules. All her time isn't taken in punishing luckless lawbreakers, either. She has a few other things to do, once in a while. When not taking dictation or pecking away, like a redheaded woodpecker, at her typewriter, which, by the way, doesn't make any noise. she directs her small army of assistants. She shows them how to run the mimeograph ma- chine and then cleans up messes they make on it. She tells them where the attendance pads are kept, how to record those aforementioned excuses, and how to cut a stencil. ln between times she takes dictation from the big boss, types the bulletin, and takes care of routine work. In her idle moments, this versatile person helps puzzled girls with their shorthand, al- gebra, and English. Another of hcr useful activies is answering questions for bothering gentlemen of the press . All this is punctuated freely with the singing of the telephone, buzzing of the buzzer, and queries as to the where- abouts of various students in demand. Then, when work has slackened up a bit, she supervises the rearrangment of the various records kept in the office and sends notes requesting students to come to the ofFiice . Perhaps Mrs. Shepardson's best work is done after everyone else has quit--after 3:15. Then, with a minium of inter- ruptions, she can prepare the statistics called for by thestate and organize her duties for the next day. One wonders if the school could func- tion at all without Mrs. Glady s Shepard- son. .-. ix..i1,. -Qil?L'7'5T!F-TQRETC-? 7sEF-FT T557 1 , Q PHOTOGRAPHERS L ,l .Jn fzi 5-new Q1 if it Q- ,aU.cQt.-.UQLQ iicgtqcfzuzi mm. .- You may not be able to find them but they are there whenever, they should bel Thus spoke someone about the cam- eraman ofthe press.

Anyway, they're gocd photographers. These two have weathered the storm of hardships of the life of a photo- grapher and in the picture that you see of them on this page,Cthese are special pictures used for press purposes only and used only by special permission of the Associated Press! Harry squints at the sun, which gets in his eyes, while Frank contentedly smiles at Mr. Robert H McPherson, who took the picture.

Once in a while Frank and Harry would become a trifle forgetful and take 'wo pictures on one film, thus producing really a most varied and unusual effect. Harry scaltd the north wall of the building so as to be in position to get a good picture of the new gym bleachers. He is going to purchase hrmselfa suit of armor and go to England this summer and see what he can do to the wallsof any ancient castle there. Don't forget your camera, Harry, for you most assur- edly should take a picture of the fair young maiden locked in the tower of that castle. Frank learned all about football chas- ing the team around while inaction on Fegan field, trying to obtain some pic- tures of them while in the midst of a thrilling play. lt is rumored that as a result from this excellent training Frank is quite an authority on just exactly how many times the lacing on ye olde pigskin crosses.

Hahn, jr., former class- mate of the members of the departing senior class, this screen was lifted at noon, july 1, 19240, and he was drawn suddenly and without warning to the other side. On that afternoon that proved to be so fateful for john, he was playing with a toy cannon that he had made for the celebration of the flth of july. The accidental discharge by his own hands of the cannon, which contained explo- sives, resulted in almost instant death for him. i-R, Q , it ,john C. Hahn, ,jr. 'l'hat was nearly four years ago when john. who was then fourteen years old, and the rest of the class of 1934 were planning to enter high school the next autumn as freshmen. Although others have joined the ranks of the class since then and would not remember him, the majority re- members john, his cheery manner, pleasing disposition, and all the other characteristics that made him the well' liked person he was. At that time john's parents, Warrant Officer and Mrs. l. C. Hahn, were sta- tioned at Fort Riley but since then have moved to San Antonio, Texas. In all probability. had he not been the victim of this tragedy, john would not have graduated from junction City but from San Antonio high school. However, the members of the class express the deepest sympathy to the Hahn family and wish them to know that they are glad that john was able to be a part of their lives as long as he was. john was an outstanding member of the class of 1934. As president of the group while in its eighth grade capacity, he gained the affection and admiration of many. At the termination of the eighth grade his fellow workers in the junior Hi-Y organization displayed their con- fidence in his leadership and ability by electing him president of the club, a position he never filled. Interested in sports, john went out for intramurals extensively as well as mak- ing ef cellent gradesin his studies. Had john been permitted to venture along the years with the class of 1934 he un- doubtedly would have been one of the bright spots in the c'ass's career as he had been before he was no longer allowed to be one of them. john will remain to those who knew him the personification of well rounded boyhood, high ideals, and a pleasing personality. --i..Xl....-, Mr. Robert K. Heald - - Pop Heald everybody called him -- - was born in Chatsworth. lllinois, january 7, 1903. When he was two years of age, his parents moved to a farm near Shebina, Missouri. Upon the completion of high school in Shebina, the ever growing desire to further his education influenced him tn enter Will'am-lewellcollege, at Liberty, Missouri from where graduated in 1927 with a Bachelor of Arts degree, and to attend the summer sessions at Kansas University for two years. At once he entered into educational work, securing a teiching positon in the high school at Marysville, where he taught for three years. He came to junction City high school in the autumn of 1930 as instructor in Spanish and coach for debate and public speaking. A short three and one half years' re- cord of service and faithfulness here in in the school and commuity was cli' maxed by his sudden and unexpected death last December 29, the result of complications from scarlet fever and an operation for appendicitis. With the death of Mr. Heald came a two-fold loss - - first, that of a teacher and worker in the school and, second, that ot a helpful and cheerful friend. Although well prepared to teach higher mathematics. he taught Spanish, public speaking' and debate, and citi- zenship and vocations. Besides his work as instructor in Spanish, citizen- ship and vocations, and as debate coach, he sponsored the National For- ensic League in the high school, acted as all-school treasurer and bookkeeper, and played on the faculty basketball team. But primarily it is not as a teacher that Mr. Heald is remembered by the students of the high school. Instead, it is because of his never-ceasing good humor and pleasant fellowship that they remember him. Who can recall the time when he was truly in a bad humor? The next day was not spoiled for him when some debaters disturbed his sleep in an Emporia hotel where he was staying Robert K. Heald during a tournament by their capers and noise about three o'clock in the morning. Mr. Heald was what one termsa regular fellow. lf one of his students came to class without an assignment, whether it be a snecial projt ct or a daily lesson, he was greeted with a jolly How was the show last night? or A pretty heavy date last night. Who was she? So it was that these anil many other similar incidents helped to cement friendships between student and teacher that were broken only by that invisible, unforeseen nower - - death. He was taken from his friends while vet very young, but one does not have to live to old age to make a definite contribution to the world, Truly an excellent teacher and a good friend was he, and the school sincerely regrets his death.

Perhaps Barbara Humphrey was the one most attracted by it. It would have made a lovely add- ition to ber already increasing sign co llection. The size of it remained the only obstacle in her way. Eugene Kuhn was anothvr whose soul was stirred by this brilliant sign. However it affected Kuhn a little drf- ferently than it did Barbara. Eugene went and looked and saw and brought forth the following literary composition which is too good to pass by. This was printed in the Blue lay: Local Project No. 47-20. Aha, you beller. Try to fool a teller. If the word project were taken out of the name, one might think that Lo- cal No, 47-20 meant the Katy tea-kettle that chases cows between here and Wre- ford. Alas, alack, Local Project No. 47-20 is nothing worse than the official name given the enlargement of the school gym by CWA authorities. Ahem, ahoo, ahaw --'---- 1 went and looked and saw. With last year's lay basketball team winning the North Central Kansas League championship, and with pros- pects of another trophy-taking team, interest in basketball this year reached its highest peak. Standing room only was the general rule in the school gymnaslum. Seats were at a premium. Well the Jays were certainly packing 'em in A - at the spectators discomfort. Standing erect for good health is tne hue and cry of all athletic directors doctors, and physical culturists. Standing erect, one must admit, is all right. Maybe. But who wants to stand - especially at abasketball game? At athle ic contests the cash customer wants to sit. Standing, as one punster - one who puns - punned. becomes physical torture. To stand and then not see is worse. Something had to be done. lt was even rumored that Coach Henry A. Shenk was going to form a glee club for zither players from the basketball team. Anyway. to clinch all arguments, President Roosevelt came alcng with his new deal. Hallelujah! To control the surp us survivors of the soup and bread lines-- not control of soup and bread--he advocated the CWA. Now that all immaterial material has been written concerning the event that led up to this project, here is the story of Grandma and Her ltigger and Bet- ter Gym . The Board of Education about this time decided that it, too, was getting tired of standing, but what could be done about it? Through rumors, the Boartl had heard of Alladin, who rubbed his lamp and received very satisfactory results. Yes, but - that was a long time ago - probably before Lincoln crossed the Potomac via the Mayflower ferry in 1776. - no, we can't do that. but - - All right, the Board said, we'll touch the C W A for enough shekels to pay for laborers and, by King Tut's whi-kers, we'll have a new bleacher section on the north side of the gym. After the touching of the CWA, however, it was quite some time before the Genie made an appearance. He was bound in tape. Not white tape that came in assorted sizes from tickers,and went out in 1929, but barncolored tape - red tare. Then on February 20, the joyous news was proclaimed to the school that the Genie had made his debut, bringing with him the rr quired shekels Action - oh, how good thy name sounds - also canre with him. It was not long until workmen began excavating for the foundation of the new addition. The original north wall of the gym was razed. A corner was cut from the west wing of the building so that standing spectators could see as,well as sit. Roy Hubbard, local contractor, who supervised workmen on the project, Hallelujahl had his men erect wooden forms prior to the pouring of concrete for the new bleacher seats. Trucks brought loads of sand. Cement was obtained. Presto. Concrete was poured. again - main B7 Then, on March 31, the new adminis- tration ordered that C W A laborers were to be demobilized. They were re- enlisted under the work relief organi- zation. Again the Genie had triumphed. Work was resumed. Wooden seat forms were dismantled. There stood the new bleacher seats. Bricklayers began the construction of the walls. April 5. The work relief organization was ordered discontinued. The Genie, it appeared, was merely a mirage: but his spirit was still there. The Board of Education decided to at least enclose the new addition, pending further aid from federal relief organi' zations - to continue the construction of the brick walls and to erect the roof. And so - Work at the present time is going slowly along. The Board has promised that the enclosement work will be complete by next September. At the time of this writing nothing is known about further relief aid. And so - until September - so long! 1Xi,T... 3- ' 1 33377531 - T-T-???T-E 1.1.1- JANITORS The gentlemen who go sweeping down the corridors, swashing across the blackboard, and swishing along the desks bear the distinguished titles of Custodians of the junction City Junior- Senior High School. According to Webster, the old stand- by, a custodian is defined as one who has care of anything, but, as that is so exceedingly indefinite, we shall stick to the good old name of janitor - - it's so much more familiar to us. Ot these indispensible parts ot our wonderful school, Mr. Murphy is the head man e the one that directs and takes it easy. The keeper of the Allen Smith Murphy Stanley Cavaliers of the broomsticksf' furnace room Cshall we call him stoker?J is another one of that nationalized family, theSmiths. He also takes the temperature of each room to see if the furnace is doing its duty or laying down on the job. The little fellow, very rotund and jolly,who is such a help to the teachers in patrolling the halls after 3:30, is THE Mr. Allen. But the pet of us all is the hero of the Spanish American War, Mr. W. A. Stanley, who. with his fastly disappear- ing grey hair and his mustache of many years, is a unique character of the school. Mr. Stanley can probably tell you more about that war of '98, oi something like that, than any historian, biased or un- biastd. And so, to these cavaliers who came riding upon their broomsticks to the aid of pedagogues in need of it, we offer a bit of Thank-you-so-much-we-will see you-again and lots of luck and a mul- titude of dust in the future.

The ' Pep Club, from all observa- tion, has been given enough cause to weaken this year by the numerous thrusts and jabs Q11 6CD6d toward them by people with senses of humor decidedly warped. But folks, hene's the moral to this bender little story. They didn't weaken and finished up a. busy year of peppy activities. They do admit they spent consider- able time in the selection of their sweaters, arguing about the techni- callties of such a garment. However, Mr. Carrol K. Ward, one of the genial sponsors, finally saved the day by going to Kansas City and ordering them and then announcing his pur- chases to the club afterwards. Nice work, Mr. Ward. If you l1adn't sensed it as your duty to mankind, the club probably still would be dis- cusslng the type of sweater that would best suit its Personality- Because of the criticism leveled at the Pep Club by certain individuals of the high school, it is interesting' to note how much the club really has accomplished. At the flrsf, of the year to give the football team asend-off into the 5eason's activities, the Hep Club spons- sored the pep rally before the Milton- vale game here. Was that fun! Snake dance, big bonfire at Fegan field, and every- thing! Enthusiasm was so intense that the eager participants crashed the Dickinson Theater after the rally and saw Claudette Colbert in Torch Singer. And th-en that unforgettable parade before the Concordia game here-the parade that wore Old Man Gloom to a mere shred! The snapshots on page 43 tell the story of that all- eventful day. The Pep Club and only the Pep Club was the instigator of this parade. During' the football season the club arranged for several assemblies, where the majority of students usually read, sl-sep, or do most anything else. However, not many were sleeping while the assembly before the Abi- lene game was presented by the Pep Club. Remember it? With .Arthur Zernickow and Fenlon Durand sing- ing The Last Round-Up and stag- ing a battle between the Blue Jays and the Cowboys? Then, too, it was a.lso noticeable that the already mentioned students with senses of humor decidedly warped usually went on the bus chartered through the efforts of the Pep Club to out:-of-town football and basketball games. Arthur O'Donnell, Hoover Rupert, and James Taylor led the cheers and turned handsprings at tne football and basketball games- ws too bad James and Hoover are graduating this year, because with another' year's practice they might have mastered the art of ahandspring. and wouldn't disgrace Arthur. Much of the credit 1S due to the hardworking sponsors, Miss Hellen Elling and Mr. Carrol K- Ward, who seem to have survived after a, year's contact with the group and that's something! Officers for the year were: President, Arthur O'Donnellg vice- president, Hoover Rupert, and sec- retary-treasurer, Helen Bell. Thus it is seen than tne Pep Club was not as inactive as certain people have claimed. Now lea us duck while Eugene Kuhn arises to voice his sentiments. O. K., Kuhn, it's all yours.

They took things right in hand and even lay on the floor to shoot themselves- iThis doesn't mean they committeed suicide, hOWSVI3T.J After the girls had become ac- customed to the strain of heavy rifle straps and had rid themselves of numerous black and blue spots, they proceeded to aim and flne at will. 4Editor's note: Wonder if they ever managed to hit Will? He probably wasn't much worrled.l And soon results began to appear in the shape of numerous bronze, silver, and gold medals. Were the young ladies proud? Thene's no doubt about it! Now you had better look out!

H-e received his grade school educa- tion in a country school-a room of 45 or 50 pupils in eight grades un- der the instruction of but one teacher. In his own words his high school days wer far too scattered to recount here. He received his teacher's training at the Kansas State Teachers Col- lege at Emporia, with graduate courses at the University of Chicago and the University of Colorado. His teaching career has been spent entirely in Kansas townsbgrade schools, country schools, high schools, principalships at Galena and Greens- burg, superintendent twelve years at Pratt, and the last, three years here in Junction City Mr, Wood is an ambid-exter. fEdi- tor's note: For the benent of the junior high students. freshmen in- cluded, this is not a new word to be left-handed until he was fourteen.

Besides his work as superintendent, Mr. Wood has several hobbies-rcad- ing. particularly along economic lines: Hshing of which he has done a great deal while in Colorado, and land- scaping.

Born at Lee's Summit, Mo.. March 3, 1899, the hero of the above epi- sode attended high school three years at Breckenridge, Mo., and the last year at Moberly, Mo., from where he was graduated with th-e highest scholastic standing of his class, but ineligible to be called valeclictorian because he had been there but one year. During his high school career, Jerry Vineyard earned letters and won medals in the major athletic sports, basketball, baseball, football, and track. Then there was debate. How well Jerry Vineyard remembers that first appearance. Too soon it was his turn to speak. As a representative of the negative-- stuck in his throat. After an interminable age he gasped in a. high-pitched, tremulous voice, I come before you to cele- brate--- Graduating ln three years from William-Jewel College at Liberty, Mo., with an A.
