Standing are The members of the ParKan staff welcome you to examine this, the l95l yearbook of Parsons Junior College. We have attempted to plan and create an annual that faithfully depicts the activities of the school year. Without the support of the busi- ness men of Parsons who contributed so generously, it would be impossible to publish a book of this sort and so to them we give our thanks. We also appreciate the co-operation given to the staff by the students and teachers of our school. KENNY DISKIN, Assistant Business Manager. MARGARET BLACK, Business Manager.

' .gn Memoriam JIM TERHUNE, whose untimely death in a hunting accident October 7 was a tremendous shock to the students and teachers of Parsons Junior College, would have graduated with the class of l95l. A member of the Cardinal football team and a topflight tennis player, Jim was noted for his sportsmanship and amiability. Jim will always be remembered as a wonderful friend by the classmates who grieved his departure. lt was a pleasure to have known him. .xgcfminififrafion SUPERINTENDENT WALLACE GUTHRIDGE DEAN CHARLES THIEBAUD THE BOARD OF EDUCATION W.

This was far from the only achieve- ment of the Cards, however. They copped second place in the Eastern I Division of the Kansas Junior College Conference, dropping only one - 2 ,gg encounter in the process.

Crown bearers were Lana Ringstaff and George Willard. ,M ingri Tie Happy was the name fre- quently applied to the 15050 edition of the football Vikings. Under the circumstanees the title was appro- priately given, as the Norsemen wound up their season with three Lies on their record. Besides ties, though, the 1950 season provided valuable experience for eleven let- termen for 1951, a big step towards a successful season. The Vikes reached their peak about midseason and seared the pants off' a very highly touted Emporia eleven hefore bowing. The Norse then traveled to Pittsburg where they surprised the home crowd by playing the S.I'l.K. League runners-up to a deadlock. For the second consecutive year the Golden Tornadoes of Coffeyville raptured the league title. though they were hard pressed by Pittsburg, a team earlier tied by the Vikings. The Norse placed three men on the second All League team' -VVally Smith, Jim Dutch Roche, both backs, and Chuck Duroni. a guard. All three are seniors. Joe Chalker. a junior, received honorable men- tion as an end.

Though the Vikes were without the services of the modern day basketball MUST, an extremely tall center tthis they proved actually wasn't a MUSTF, they established themselves as a state power with an overall 20 win--6 loss record, Coach Harold Johnson was the mentor for the third straight season. For the second consecutive year the Vikings were on top in the SEK League charn pionship race. This year, however, they had to share their laurels with Coffeyville, whom they defeated twice in league play. Parsons moved to the regional class AA tournament at Pittsburg, where they also copped first place-fand an invitation to the state tournament in Emporia. The Vikings were defeated only once in the state tourney, that defeat coming at the hands of Wichita East, the ultimate state champions, in the semi-finals. The Norse ended up in a well earned third place. Don Franklin, Glen Cooper, both seniors, and Jim Strathe, a iunior, were named on the All-SEK League first team, and Orval Taylor, a senior, received honorable mention Franklin, who has made the All-SEK League team three years in a row, was honored with an All-State berth, while Cooper placed on the second All-State team and Strathe re ceived All-State honorable mention.

They defeated their first I I opponents before losing to a strong Pittsburg aggregation. Coach Cliff Smith employed the same fast- break methods as did the Viking varsity and often ran the scores past 7O, while using all of his play- ers in the fracases.

A truly all-school production, The New Moon was made possible by a great many students and teachers working to- gether. Scenery had to be painted, sets had to bc constructed, costumes had to be fitted and repaired, tickets had to be sold, make-up had to be applied. usherettes had to help seat the crowds, and the show had to be advertised. A large number of students and teachers too numerous to mention here pitched in to take care of all this and help insure the success of the production. Betty Joseph had two important jobs: she arranged the splendid programs and acted as prompter. Don Murphy, who joined the Navy during the first semester, designed a cover for the programs before he left Parsons. Chief credit for the magnificient production, of course, went to Mr. Roger Johnson, the director. Once again he over- came such obstacles as measles and laringitis to come through with a polished show. For instance, a week before thc produc- tion Wanda Robbins replaced Mary Ellen Houk, who had con- tracted a severe case of measles, in the part of Julie. Then just hefore the initial performance, Miss Robbins picked up larin- gitis: but. like all good troupers, she turned in a good perform- ance anyhow. Even such developments as these failed to shake the director's faith that his cast would come through brilli- antly. That they did. Yes, The New Moon must be classified in the hit class along with The Desert Song of 15150, The Student Prince of 1949, and The Mikado of 1948. .. .... .05 s.if, .4 This is the first year for the Polychromes, a group of advanced choir students. These twenty-two musicians, directed by Mr. Roger Johnson and accompanied by Rosanna Rans- bottom, made radio and personal appearances many times. Most of the group went to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to see the Tulsa Opera's version of The New Moon. Shown above are: Rosanna Ransbottom, ac- companist, front row-Eva Dean Ringstaff, Patsy Ruddick, Garry Lu Garr, Lois Belle Reedy, Betty Emerick, Patty Loughmiller, Kay Rich- mire, Mary Helen Lortz, Nancy Blanchard, Marcia Martin, back row-Richard Scott, Jan Higgins, Mitchell Martin, Kenny Moore, Mr. Roger Johnson lDirectorl, Fred Thompson, Bob Jobe, Jack Jarrett. Members not in this picture are: Joan Guthridge, Tom Woods, Ed Rude, Jerry James, and Gussie Domeny. The Polychromes formed the nucleus of the PJC vocal group that invaded Denver, Colo- rado, to give a program at a Shriner's Conclave on March l8. With the help of former stu- dents Cliff Howard and Nedra Fleming, the PJC vocalists presented selections from three operettas produced at PJC in former years- The Mikado, The Student Prince, and The Desert Song. The program was dubbed a smash hit by the Shriners. Officers of the Polychromes were: Marcia Martin, President, Betty Emerick, Librarian, and Patsy Ruddick, Manager. may oon 0rcAe:ifra At the left a number of members of The New Moon orchestra are shown as they appeared after playing for the final performance of the highly successful operetta, ln the background is the scenery for the final act of the show.

PJC's first semester all-school play, An- other Language, was presented December l l, under the direction of Miss Inez Cunningham.

The production staff, which consisted of members of the Footlights Club and the Dra- matics class, included: Sue Cowden, Mary Newell, Verle Shoemaker, Nancy Frame, Car- ter Carlton, Helen Humphreys, Merle Shoe- maker, Ray Ann Fair, Ed Rude, Sue Peck, Ros- anne Ruble, Harley Hansen, Mitchell Martin, and Rolleen Elliott. John Hunter, Charles Brown, and Norman Leistikow were electri- cians ancl Barbara Scott served as prompter. Cad Mrs. Hallam .. ........, Joyce Newfield Mr. Hallam .. ..

A Pulitzer prize winner, the play gives a perfect picture of life in an American town, Grovers Corners, New Hampshire. This play departs from orthodox dramatic form in that it is presented almost entirely with- out scenery, though a backdrop was used in PJC's version. The Stage Manager sets the scenes for the spectators. Timing and sound effects are especially important. The audience at PJC, as has been the case with countless audiences all over the country, shared the joys and sorrows of the people of Grover's Corners in general and of the Webb and Gibbs families in particular. Miss Inez Cunningham directed the produc- tion, and Meredithe Clary served as prompter. A special choir for the play was selected and trained by Mr. Roger Johnson. Footlights club members helped in behind the scenes work.
