I had done it many times before but somehow I couldnlt compel myself to do it now. At. last the explanation broke through to my conscious mind as the item I had read in the ttDeaths of the morning paper was again pictured to me. Jones: June 9. Alfred R. Jones, beloved husband of Myra Jones, son of the late Martin H. Jones, Chairman of the Board of Southern Railways, etc. I had know Jones personally and knew quite a little of his private life, which was lilled with many events much more interesting and worthy to be remembered by than the fact that he had been Chairman of the Board of Southern Railways. It was at this point in my line of thought that I fully realized that if I were to attempt to cross the street and were killed some kind friend would write some such statement concerning me. What a scnd-oif! I did not want to be remembered for my business relations alone nor the fact that I was my wife's husband or my fathers son. I wanted people to know what had happened in my life that had iniiuenced and inter- ested me. The only possible way to accomplish this was to write my own obituary. It was not probably that anything would happen in the remainder of my life, as I had retired from business and was leading a quiet home life. I shall tell you now that I did not cross that street then but retraccd my steps back to my study at home, where I was sure of peace and quiet and could begin work immediately. I, John Scribe tborn 1909-diedel began life in a spot in the heart of our country called Marion, Iowa. Of course I attended grade school and Junior High, but it was in the fall of ,24 that things of importance began to happen. This is the date of my grand entrance into the Marion High School of which Mr. H. W. Chehock was Superin- tendent and Mr. H. L. Dole, principal. Each member of our class though that we had something on the Seniors because the building was new to everyone and they couldnt call us iIgrcen , even though we were Freshmen. In spite of this fact the similarity of the second and third Hoors con- fused us for the first week or so. Work began at once. A few of us were designated to be instructed by Mr. Finger concerning Algebra. He emphasized the fact that we absolutely could not add apples and peaches without obtaining disastrous results. After the first six weeks Miss Hos- kins took over our class and made us realize the necessity of finding the value of that unknown quantity x. Miss Smiley soon had us all dreaming conjugations and declen- tions. This all lead to the ability to interpret that famous quotation by Caesar, Veni, Vidi, Viciil, tonly some of us didnt feel that wayJ Before long we felt important enough to hold our class meeting, at which we elected Miss Hunt and Miss Hoskins as advisors and Harold Hardin, President; Teresa Naso, Vico-President; and Gerald Cooper, Secretary and Treasurer. One fine autumn day we gathered up courage enough to venture as far as Merkel's pasture for a weiner roast. Later on in the year we wont to Earl Biggsl for a class party. Some of the members entered into various activities. Marshall Kent made the Basketball team, Edith Hutton won first in the Home Declamatory Contest, and some of us offered our melodious voices to aid in the production of the Operetta, The Belle of Barcelonaii. After three months vacation we returned as Sophomores, feeling much less ver- dant because we could no longer be classed as Freshies. At our first class meeting we elected Miss Hoskins and Mr. Aton as our Advisors and Vernon Stevens, President; Roy Guzzle, Vice-President; and Marcella Turner, Sec- retary and Treasurer. Mr. Miller lost no time in beginning to instruct us relative to remembering dates tHistoryl and Miss Hoskins and Mr. Chehock impressed upon our minds the fact that a straight line was the shortest distance between two points. Before many weeks had passed all in Mr. Chehockts class knew exactly how Nero fiddled while Rome burned. V N Page Thirty In the fall, as was the custom, we packed some buns and weiners into cars and went to Scottls Mills for a weiner roast; If anyone doesntt think we had fun that year just ask any member of the class about the Halloween party we had at Frances Se- bernls, the party at Shirley Newlints, and the M. H. S. skating party at Cedar Rapids. That year we began to show off our talent more and more. Marshall Cory was on the debate team, five were members of the football squad, four went out for basketball, agd 1,115.1.ehie Reinheimer displayed skill in track. Some took part in the Operetta, t ie t es l. After the years work was completed and exams over we were given a leave of three months. There was a spirit of excitement among the pupils when school again opened. We had a new Superintendent, Mr. Vernon, and we had to go to school until four o'clock instead of being released at 3:30. We soon forgot our objections to the new rule be- cause we were Juniors and that name brought with it many new responsibilities. Mr. Karch and Miss Kinney were elected advisors and Lewis Hunter, President; Teresa Naso, Vice-President; and Lyle Kindig, Secretary and Treasurer. We certainly were a speedy class and were so proud of the fact that we displayed our speed on the way home from our weiner roast at Shaeifer Park. The cop couldntt seem to understand it, so he halted us, and escortcd us back to Cedar Rapids, where we had to explain. Even then the drivers of the cars had to pay fines for something for which the class spirit was responsible. In spite of all this we gathered again for a party at Mildred Mellishls. In order to help meet the expenses of the year we decided to give a Junior Play. WI'he Charm Schooltt was chosen and presented successfully. After the showing made the year before we naturally exhibited even more enthus- iasm for the various activities. Teresa Naso was elected President of the G. A. A.; Marshall Cory, Roy Guzzle, and Leroy Davin debated intelligently about the MeNary- Haugen Farm Relief Bill; nine Juniors were on the Football squad; four showed up in Basketball; four displayed real skill in Baseball, and five chose Track as a means of expressing their ability. Teresa Naso and Robert Flanigan had main parts in the Operetta, Sailor Maids? In December our hearts were saddened by the loss of Miss Marshall who had been teaching at Marion for forty-two years. Last of all was the crowningr event of the year, the Junior-Senior Banquet. It was given in the form of a circus, with Lewis Hunter as a very capable ring master. The latter part of the evening was spent in dancing in the new gym. When school opened in September we bore that time-honored name Senior. The first business of the year was the election of advisors and officers. Miss Yates and Mr. Hines consented to be our advisors. Lyle Kindig was elected President; Lou- ella Rogers, Vice-President; Raymond Stanton. Secretary; and Leon Eckhart, Treasurer. Again we suffered a loss in the faculty. Miss Kinney. the girls Physical Training teacher, passed away. Her place was taken by Miss Knight. The Quill Staff was chosen by members of the faculty and began work immediately with the aim of a bigger and better Quill. Several class meetings were held. We decided to have Mr. Ellson take all pictures for the Quill and selected our class rings. ttWith the ropes of the past we will ring the bells of the future was chosen as the class motto; Columbia Rose as the flower; and coral and gold as the colors. We were well represented in the athletics. Arthur Petruseh was given the honor of All-State Football man. Other activities in which we took part were Declam. Debate, and Operetta. The usual Senior Class Play was given in the Spring. There were several banquets held during the year but the greatest was the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. As was the custom the Juniors entertained the Seniors. The last week was the busiest and most important of all. The class attended the Baccalaureate Serman, the Class Day Exercises, the Commencement Address, and the Alumni Banquet. Thus with mingled feelings of happiness and regret we left the dear school, Marion Hi. The next year- tNOTEt This manuscript was found among the posthumous papers of the late John Scribe who was instantly killed yesterday at the intersection of Broadway and Forty-second Street. eEdith Hutton. Page Thirty-one CLASS POEM We have reached the end of the j ourney Of school days in old Marion High. Our footsteps no longer will echo, But soft in the distance they,ll die. But the memories the friendships and laughter, Oh, close to our hearts we hold fast; And well ring the bells 0f the future With ropes that we made in the past. So now at the cross-roads we lingere- How swiftly the four years have flown! How endless they loomed once before us! How brief after four years theytve grown! Our departure leaves no vacant places; Gay J uniors slip into each chair, And the school pays them homage as Seniors So quickly our honors they wear. May the good we have done be remembered, And mistakes be passed off with a smile For though we often have faltered, There also were deeds deemed worth while. We tried, but. alas! we were human, And to err was so easy we found. May you profit by our careless stumbling; And steer clear of all treacherous ground. The bells of the future are ringing; On our hearts fall the tones loud and clear. They are calling to lifets best endeavor-e To our plans and our purposes here. SO farewell to our High School forever! And long live the coral and gold! We Will always be true to our colors Whatever the future may hold. ermces Ovmgton. Page Thirty-two CLASS SONG iTUNF.

Now were at the gate of lifets great highway, So Marion Hi, we sayz-ttSO longn. -eMabel Pem'i'nm CLASS PROPHECY During the Iowa picnic which was held at Los Angeles in the year 1948, we chanced to meet and converse with various members 01' the class which graduated from Marion High in 1928. Being ourselves former residents of Iowa we were invited to this cele- bration and thus were given an opportunity to interview our old class mates. Believ- ing that these observations may be of interest to those who have graduated in the intervening years, we therefore put into writing this gala event. On the morning set for the picnic, the sun rose in all its glory and the sky was Iilled with radiance. The whole earth seemed gorgeously beautiful. As we gazed about us we were inspired by the celestial light and decided that no one need fear that the weather would be detrimental to the pleasures of the coming day. About eight oiclock we ate breakfast at a restaurant. We saw at once that the proprietor looked familiar and upon inquiring who he was learned that he was Frank Lines. He very cordially greeted us and introduced us to his wife Zelda Gillmore. A very animated conversation followed in which we learned that Roy Guzzle had recently married Marcella Turner and was practicing medicine in Omaha, Nebraska. Frank also said that his former companion Donald Millburn was making a great success of his career as a movie director, being himself no mean actor. We talked for some time on other matters of current interest and then, realizing it was nearly twelve olcloek, we rushed outside and boarded a street car which was bound for the picnic ground. Upon entering the car whom did we meet but Archie Reinheimer and his loving wife Frances Thomas, who greeted us with a hearty tthi there . We were delighted to see them once more and entered immediately into a conversation. They said that they had come all the way from Coggon to be at this picnic and hoped to see many of their old classmates of y28. We, deSIring to know what they knew about a few of their old friends, were informed that Louella Rogers having married Leon Eckhart was now the first woman mayor of Sioux City. We asked Archie what had become of his old friend Allan Dripps and he said that he was decorating windows in Topeka, Kansas. We learned further that Albert Fliekinger and Harold Silker, two more of the erstwhile graduates had started a factory in Salt Lake City for the manufacture of life pre- servers. At this point the car came to a stop and we entered the park, not far from a water hydrant. Near the curb was a man in a white uniform. His face seemed familiar, so we asked his name, and learned that it was Grover Cleveland. He told us that he had recently been appointed Street and Alley Commissioner of the city and was pursuing his work in a business like way, by personal supervision. We walked on and soon came to the spot picked for the event. We were greeted by Claudine Rockey who had just arrived from Reno, Nevada, where she presides as judge in the court of Domestic Relations. Of course we asked if she knew about her old classmates and what they were doing at present. She, with a great deal of pridey told us that her fiance, tGeorge MerkeD was professor of Zoology at the University of Southern California and that they were to be married in June of the coming year by Gail Postel, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church at Carson City, Nevada. We asked her if she knew what had become of Marguerite Dye. She said that the last word she had received from her was that she had started a beauty parlor at Point Bar- row, Alaska, assisted by Arlys Peterson who picked up a little spare change now and then, dancing for the Eskimos. We were about to converse further when we were interrupted by the loud voice of Pauline Oakley yelling ttWhen do we eatiw Pauline had just arrived from Kansas City, Missouri where she is employed by the Reinheimer sisters, proprietors of the Waldorf Cafe. The party responding to the call, assembled around the table and a word of prayer was oifered by Rev. Stevens of Louisa which is now a thiving populace of five hundred. Mr. Stevens seemed very interested in the ministry and spoke earnestly upon the paramount purpose of his life as follows: I have entered the ministry with the purpose of abolishing athletic games in schools because I maintain that coaches sometimes use very profane language in criticizing the actions of their players, to the extent that they acquire the habits of carelessness in speechfi No response was heard from the enthusiastic, professional, football star, Arthur Petrousch. Page Thirty-four At this point the whole company engaged in the pleasant task of devouring the food set before them. This was enjoyed by everyone, and to make the meal a success, a toast was given by Leloy Da11n, a senator f10m 1011a. He spoke in his usual sincere, earnest and highly intellectual mannel, touching valious pioblems of national inter.est William Dippel, an oiiicer at West Point, agieed with his remaiks on many issues, as did also Fred Rasmussen who holds:1 '1'p10minent position, that of National Commission- e1 of Baseball of Ame1ica. After 1istening t0 the various speeches, we glanced around the table and seeing Ralph Chcsrown we ambled ove1 to him and entered into a discour.se He said that he had just become a retiied falmer and 11 as living the life of a bachelor in Shenan- doah. He told us that Le111s Hunte1 is a successful commercial chemist devoting his time to an attempt to discover new formulas for the Steekmen Supply Company of Mar.ion He is aided by a fail lass 1' ho for'meily lived in Mt.Ve1non. He also told us that Harvey Gipp is a wealthy live stock breeder and owner of a large farm ten miles from Alburnett. No farmer is successful without a wife, but Harvey's High School days provided him with this help. We strolled on around the table and to our surprise came upon Frances Ovington and Lillian Zak 11110 were recently retnrned missionaries from Siberia. We asked Frances if she had seen Josephine Ingram lately. She said that in her travels she had met Josephine in Petrograd, Russia, where she is the cityis most successful woman Photographer, specializing in double rxposurts. We asked Lillian if she knew about any of the other graduates of 28 and she said that her old friends Mabel Perrin and Lyle Kindig' were playing in Paul Whitemants orchestra. She also told us that she had heard that DeVee Cherry was teaching school in New Orleans and Iva Comport was following the same profession in St. Paul, Minn. Hearing the cries of ttExtraK uExtra , we called a boy to us and bought a paper. The headlines were as follows; HRobert Flanigan is elected 39th president of the U. S. We were dumbfounded and knew not what to say, so great was our admiration, but the whole company joined with us in a demonstration of our happiness at the good fortune of our former classmate. Then, turning to the sport section, we were again astonished with the words ttNew record seteDora Callahan is first woman to pole vault fifteen feetn. Then turning to the women's section we found that Alice Skedine had invented runnerless hosiery and Louise Hutchison has been appointed World News Reporter for the Sentinel. Again we were interrupted. This time it was the mailman, who after close exam- ination proved to be Melvin Gibson. He handed us a special delivery letter from an Old friend Richard Schultz. In his letter l'e told us that after a 10112; and careful study he had discovered the reason why women in the stone age did not bob their hair. He also said he was living happily with his wife, Edith Hutten, and his faithful valet, Gayle McCannon. Realizing that it was getting late the party broke up and the grown up children went their various ways rejoicing with the inspiration they had received from the meeting. The following morning we boarded an eastbound train for home. We were de- lighted with the pleasure we had received from meeting our old classmates and felt that our time and money had been well spent. As we passed thru Helena, Montana, we noticed a corral beside the track in which there was a great commotion. As the train stopped we got off to see what the excitement was all about. We saw Carl Mc- Gowan roping a steer. We learned that he owned a ranch near the city and that Raymond Stanton was his foreman. At Omaha we stopped off for a few days for the purpose of seeing a fine show which was to be presented there. Upon attending this said performance, we recognized Charles Izer playing the pipe organ and Harold Hardin leading the orchestra. After the performance, we talked to them and received further information about the class. Harold said that Marshall Cory having settled in the Central part of Africa, had struck oil and was now practically a millionaire. Charles informed us that Irol Miller was president of the Merchants National Bank at Des Moines. In due time we again reached home in the smoky cityePittsburg. It was some time before we could get back into the routine of life so great had been the joy we had received from this reunion with our old classmates. eRalph Kilburn Richard Sears Page Thirty-fwe CLASS WILL Know All Men by these Presents, That we the Seniors of tt28 , being of sophisti- cated age, sound mind, tpresumeablyl and disposing memory, do hereby publish, utter, and declare this to be our last will and testament, and do hereby revoke all wills and condocils heretofore by us made.

Page Forty-nine ii; THE SPANISH CLUB itLa Tertiilia,, was the name chosen by the second year Spanish students several years ago when they organized their club, and the organi- zation has continued its successful work this year. The purposes of this club are to supplement the students class-room knowledge of the language and to promote enthusiasm for Spanish. The class hour every fourth Friday during the school year is devoted to the club meeting. The programs usually begin with roll call which is answered by Spanish proverbs; then various students give current events, reviews of lives of Spanish authors, or other reports of interest. The hour is frequently concluded by games and songs of Spain. tiEe Eco is the I newspaper to which the students subscribe. The officers of the club for 1927-28 are: I President Lyle Kindig ii Vice-Pwesident ................

Not having money enough to buy a dress suit, Willie is forced to borrow his fathers. Through the machinations of Willie,s irre- pressible little sister Jane, Willie,s mother learns the reason for his advantage over the lovesick youths 0f the neighborhood. When Mrs. Baxter sends the dress suit to the tailor to be altered for her husband, Willie finds it necessary to resort to manual labor and to pawn his ttday-clothes and jewelry in order to secure a second-hand dress suit from ttOne-Eyed Beljus. Learning the extenuating circumstances from Jane, Mrs. Baxter plans to aid her son; but when Jane tries to tell him that she told her to tell him, Willie tells her to ttshut-up and exclaims, ttYouWe ruined my lifeV George Crooper, a boy with a car, makes hay while Willie is trying to earn the necessary money with which to purchase a dress suit and at Lola Prattts farewell party Willie finds himself without a single dance.

Donald Milbum STORY OF THE PLAY Sir Charles Worthington had promised his dying friend, Donovan McCoy, that his son, Pomeroy, should marry McCoyis daughter, Rose, when the son should come of age. Shortly before the action of the opera begins, Rose McCoy, as the elder of two nieces, had been left quite a fortune by a rich uncle in America. Rose has a cousin, Betty. The two live together in Betty's birthplace, Limerick Town, under the guardianship of Judge Hooley. Both girls were born on the same dayethe 24th of May, 1910. But Rose is a few hours the elder, and thus inherits the rich American uncleis money, while Betty is left with nothing but her looks. The Captain comes of age, and is sent by his father to Limerick to Win the hand and heart of Rose. Rose strongly suspects his motives to be more mercenary than amorous, and she arranges therefore to change places with Betty. But the Captain, who prides himself on his shrewdness, suspects exactly what the cousins will do. He there- fore addresses his attentions to Rose tmasquerading as Bettyi, although the Captain falls in love quite hopelessly with the real Betty. Rose gets hold of a letter from Sir Charles to his son, and the contents so enrage her that she scorns the Captains ad- vances, and says that if he is merely seeking money he had better lose no time in try- ing his fortune with tther cousin Rose , meaning, of course, Betty. The Captain, de- lighted. takes her advice and eventually wins Betty. When he discovers that Betty is really a pauper, he is in despair and wonders how he can marry her in face of his fathers opposition. Presently, Sir Charles and his wife arrive with a retinue 0f ser- vants, and both are amazed and angry at the turn of affairs. They denounce the Cap- tain and immediately prepare to return home in high dudgeon. A sort of deadlock ensues. It is unexpectedly broken by the sudden arrival of Ezra Q. Hicks. an eccentric New England retired farmer, who proves conclusively that it is Betty, and not Rose, who is the elder of the cousins, and therefore heiress to the Amer- ican uncle,s fortune. Thus all ends satisfactorily, and even Rose finds consolation in the arms of her hitherto unsuccessful suitor, Justin OiFlynn.

There is some natural family excitement incident to the holiday preparation. Bradley and Lois, the twins, are come ing home from college. Hugh, the oldest, out of college for six years, writes that he thinks possibly he Will be able to come. During the joyous Christmas fcstivities business matters become very hard for Bernard at the City Hall where he has been assessor for eighteen years. Kimberley, a new councilman, has been instrumental in discharging Bernardts stenographer, and putting in her place a friend of his own. Bernard angered by this action and Kimber- ley,s domineering attitude, resigns his position. As soon as he mails his resignation he realizes he has made a mistake and tries to recall the letter, but it is too late. Eunice his staunch companion appeals to her mother for financial aid. But Granny is not of the mind to lend them a cent. She is perfectly willing to help Bernard and Eunice but not the vain empty iteaded grandchildren. The rest of the story deals with the ttgameness in which the children take the matters showing the true love and loyalty in their hearts despite the seemingly frivolous surface.

A. is to facilitate the work of the Girls Phys- ical Education Instructor in promoting interest in athletic activities, and g to build up physical efficiency, athletic accomplishment, and good sports- I manship among the girls of the High School. 3 About the first of November the girls held a contest for new members and a rally was held in the gymnasium. Most Of the girls of the school t t attended and much enthusiasm for the work was shown. Later an inform- al initiation of new members was held, followed by a social evening. The girls demonstrated their ability in generating pep when they gave a Pep Assembly, just before the Grant High Game. In the line of athletic games, the G. A. A. sponsored Volleyball and Basketball tournaments, dur- ing the winter. The spring athletics include soccer, tennis, baseball, and track. The plan of organization of the G. A. A. is based on a point system. Certain numbers of points earned by participation in the various games and sports merit the following rewards: three hundred points, a numeral; six hundred points, a varsity letter; one thousand points, a sweater. At least sixty percent of the points, must be earned in team games. The ofhcers 0f the G. A. A. are as follows: s :C 1?: m President .............. ........

GIRL RESERVES The Girl Reserves were organized in 1920 by Miss Locke and Miss Muirhead under the name IIGirlst Hi-Y ClubK but when the organization became afhliated with the national Y. W. C. A., the club adopted the name I'Girl Reserves?

The work of the Girl Reserves Club is social, civic, and moral or relig- ious. It aims to create a spirit of friendliness among the students, to serve the community in every way possible, and to promote the upholding of a high moral standard in the High School student body. Meetings are held on alternate Mondays after school. Usually there is a program of songs, readings, stunts, etc. At various times, the group has been addressed by speakers who have brought inspiring messages. Most of the girls in the schools have joined in having a good time together at the several parties given by the Girl Reserves. Among the other activities Which have been sponsored by the Girl ieserves are: the distributing of food on Thanksgiving Day, giving a Christmas Party for the needy children of the community, and taking charge of devotions at assembly. The Officers are: President, Dorothy Michel; Vice President, T eresa Naso; Secretary, Mildred Mellish; Treasurer, Ruth Crew.

All events occurring after April 1, 1928 will be recorded in the 1929 Quill. .. 41 Page Sixty-seven ,nvn1e K; a W Kw Me m , L . 0.4;, ...... M MT? The Lincoln Building, the original Marion High School Building, was completed in 1869, and three years later the first class was graduated. Mr. J. W. McClellan, the first superintendent, aided by his wife, who was prin- cipal of the school at that time, directed the graduates of the class of 1878 in organizing The Alumni Association of Marion High School. Because there was need for more room, an addition to be used for gymnasium and class room was made in 1912. This greatly improved the school facilities, but they were still inadequate, so in 1924 our new Marion High School building was erected. The dedication program, consisting of talks by represesntatives from the various civic organizations of Marion, t showed the deep community interest in the welfare of the school. 1 7 This year marks the fifty-sixth anniversary of the association. The present enrollment numbers 1614 members, including the class of 1928. The main activity of the organization is giving a banquet to each years graduating class.

Much praise is due her for interest and conscientious instruction in the Operetta, Musical Contest, and other public perform- ances. MR. DIETRICK Mr. Dietrick came to this city in Septem- ber to take up the position of Principal 0f the Junior High and to conduct the band. He has given much of his time to the betterment of that organization. Under his leadership the band has made noticeable progress and has aided in many school activ- ities. Page Seventy-two The orchestra has been very successful this year, due to the fact that there are many musicians in High School, and also that they have had the careful supervision of Miss J aycox. They have appeared on several public occasions, and each time their selections have been much enjoyed. Mabel Perrin .......................................

By his personal influence in the student body he has created a spirit of good sportsmanship, and only a coach Who pos- sesses this quality can teach it to others. COACH HINES ALLEN MULLINEX Allen Mullinex, assistant coach, deserves much credit for his helpful services in assist- ing Coach Hines in developing Athletic teams. His willingness to sacrifice his time, and his effort in furthering the progress of the team, have proven his interest in our Athletics. '0 age Eighty THE CAPTAINS CAPTAIN PETRUSCH Captain Petrusch, playing the fullback position, was the mainstay of this years football aggregation. He is a three letter man and Marion High is proud to say he received honorable mention on the All State High School Teami, for his out-standing playing and ability to lead the team. CAPTAIN RASMUSSEN Last year Freddie was one of the star performers for the Marion Baseball team and so rightfully deserved the honor of Captaincy in this sport, this year. He is a very capable catcher, and a good all-l'ound player, direct- ing his team with much skill. CAPTAIN OLEARY Although only a Junior, Bob was chosen to lead the track team because of his keen interest and his fighting spirit. He is a sprint man of no mean ability and much is expected of him both this year and next. Page Eighty-one Back row standing-wGibson, Burrows, Callahan, Mohr, Mitchell, Breed, G.

THE FOOTBALL SEASON After three weeks of intensive practice, Marion opened its gridiron schedule With a game on the home field, having Tipton for the opposition. This game showed lack of experience and resulted in a scoreless tie. The following few days were spent in correcting errors shown in the opening game and at the same time preparing for a stiff struggle With Iowa City. After a few more games the Red and Gold seemed to hit their stride and began playing a better brand of football. With sufficient confidence, Coach Hines, aggregation met the scrappy Vintotn eleven. The Marion eleven scored in the second quarter leaving the tally at half time, 6 t0 0. The Vinton team came back in the second half and staged a driving offense; but failed to penetrate the stone wall defense of the locals, until late in the fourth quarter a Vinton back got away on a fake play and ran 42 yards to tie the score. Although the game ended 6 t0 6 Marion showed the superior football by making 23 flrst downs to 3 for the opponents. Page Eighty-two GIPP V RASMUSSEN NEFF STEVENS PETERSON Tackle Half Back Guard Center Half Back Two weeks later Belle Plaine invaded the home gridiron. The feature of this game was the scoring of a touch-down by Marion after Coach Hines had substituted most of the second team. The season closed with the usual Turkey day battle when Marion journeyed to Anamosa. The first half ended 6 to 0 in Marion,s favor, the only counter being made by Captain Petrusch. As play was resumed the second half Anamosa staged a driving offense which ended in their scoring Page Eighty-three TURNER HUNTER O 'LEARY FRENCH DIPPLE Guard Half Back End End Quarter Back a touch-down, after Which they smashed the line for the extra point, leav- ing the score at the final whistle, 7 t0 6. Thus ended the 1927 football season for the Red and Gold, NEXT YEARS TEAM Marion should be well represented on the gridiron next fall, as there are a number of experienced men around Which to build a team. Page Eighty-fou 1' REED HARDIN FLICKINGER TAYLOR Half Back End Center Guard Captain Dale Peterson Will carry a good share of the burden from a backfield position, which he fins in a neat manner. The letter men to return are: Turner, tackle; Taylor, guard; Neff, guard; Oleary, end. With such men as Pinch, Michel, Coakley, Beach, Mohr, Breed, Newcomb, and others, Marion should boast of a real football team in 1929. Page Eighty-five 1M1 CLUB Fred Rasmussen. Archie Reinheimer, Arthur Petrusch, Gail Pastel, Robert Flanigan, Earl Riggs. Lewis Hunter. The 11M club of Marion High School was organized in the year of 1917, to promote interest in participation in athletic sports, and to stimu- late a more careful observation of training rules, for the sake of improving athletics in our school. Another aim of the club is to keep high the stand- ard of the school letter. All boys who have won a letter in any branch of athletics are eligible for membership. The new members of the club who have earned letters this years are: Austin Case, Francis Taylor, William Dipple, Joseph Turner, Albert Flick- inger, Robert O,Leary, Wilfred French, Harvey Gipp, Dale Peterson, Edward Reed, Vernon Stevens, Claire Neff, and Richard Sears. The 1927-1928 officers of the 9M club are: Robert Flanigan ..................................................................................................... President Earl Biggs ..................................................................................................... V'ice-President Gail Postel .................................................................................................................... Sec'retrwy Lewis Hunter ............................................................................................................ TTeasutrer At the close of the football season the boys who played football gave a banquet in the Methodist Church. Talks were given by Coach Hines, Mr. Mullinex, and several of the boys. Coach Barker of Cornell College was the speaker of the evening. Page Eighty-six Every member of an athletic team, no matter how much skill and ability he possesses must be led by the ideal that he is playing for the sake of the school. The student body is largely responsible for the gen- erating of that spirit of pep and true school loyalty, and Marion High has not been found lacking in enthusiastic boasting for her athletic teams. However the student body as a whole needs leaders to demonstrate this spirit of enthusiasm in an effective way. Through the work of our cap- able yell-leaders, Arlys Peterson, Herbert Conger, and Catherine Wiley to create, organize, and direct ttpeptt, there has been a spirit of loyalty in our school of which we are justly proud.

THE SEASON Coach Hines call for Basket Ball candidates was answered by 40 volunteers, who immediately began intensive training for the fifteen game schedule with the best teams in the state. The nucleus around which the 1928 team was to be built was composed of Captain Hunter, forward; Biggs. forward; and Petrusch, guard. Three weeks of hard practice prepared the Red and Gold for the opening game of the season with the alumni. The High School led by ? Captain Hunter, offered stiff competition to the past grads, only to be t beaten in the last few minutes of the game by a small margin of three points. Eddie spent the remaining week drilling the team into shape for the contest with Iowa City which was one of the best High School teams that ever appeared on the Marion Court.

On January 12, Marion journeyed to Manchester, where they proved their ability as sharpshooters by severely trouncing the Orange and Black 34 to 22. With sufficient self confidence, Marion challenged Monticello to a battle royal on the local court. The small but fast Captain Appleby of the oppon- ents, appeared to be blessed with a rabbitis foot, scoring 18 of Monticellois 25 points, with Marion trailing by 2 points at the final whisle. With the sting of defeat in the hearts of every player, Marion en- countered Mt. Vernon here, and took the Maroon and White unaware, winning by a 23 to 25 score. Although another victory had been chalked up, the locals were not satisfied and so traveled to Anamosa to prove their superiority by bring- ing home the long end of a 29 to 18 count. The highly touted Vinton quintet sent the Red and Gold a challenge apparently expecting an easy Victory; but received a great surprise when the home team held them to a 17 to 9 count. Page Eighty-nine Last but not least, was the all-important game of the season, with Grant High of Cedar Rapids as opposition. The West side school exhib- ited a fast breaking offense the first half, the count at end of that time being 26 to 10. As play was resumed, the home team, led by Captain Hunter, put forth their greatest efforts to overcome the handicap of the first half. However, their attempts were futile, although the Red and Gold accounted for 14 points the second half, to Grants 10. This was the last High School game for the majority of the boys who made up this year's team. Austin Case is the only letter man to return next year. CAPTAIN LEWIS HUNTER Captain Hunter, playing a forward position, led his team-mates through a successful season. His excellent floor work and good eye for the basket have won him much applause 0n the Basket Ball fioor. Not only does he deserve recognition as an all around athlete, but he is equally worthy of praise for his out-standing service to the school, and for his splendid record in scholarship. Earl became ill soon after the season got under way and was unable to finish it. This loss was heavily felt by all of the fellows, for he was a consistent scorer and an aggressive player, playing a regular forward position. Page Ninety THE 1927 BASEBALL SEASON Out of a large group of prospective Speakers, Cobbs, and Johnsons that reported to Superintendent Vernon, a hard fighting baseball team was molded. The nine wonders, starting the maiden season of baseball for Marion Hi, soon proved their prowess and skill, and at the end of the sea- son tucked away a perfect record of nine victories. The opposition was the best in this section of Iowa.

La Porte City here GE: To start the 1928 baseball season, Superintendent Vernon will have four veterans returning. They are: Captain Rasmussen, Catcher; Biggs, third baseman; Petrusch, outfielder; and Postel, pitcher. With these and a few promising recruits, a successful season is anticipated. For the sum- mary, please consult the 1929 Quill. Page Ninety-twn THE 1927 TRACK SEASON At the beginning of the season, the prospects for a successful track team were good, for we had seven letter men: Captain Ellson, Rinard, Ryan, Reinheimer, Moothart, Munday and Domer, around whom to build a team. At the first call about twenty-five recuits reported, ready for work. However, the season did not prove to be as successful as we had hoped on account of the fact that there was a lack of funds to send the team to any track meets. A practice relay meet was held with both Grant and Washington High of Cedar Rapids, the result of which was that Marion received second place. The team also had a meet with the Freshmen of Cornell College. By the latter part of April, Coach Hines gathered a half-mile and two- mile relay team, composed of Ryan, Reinheirner, Strickle, and Rinard which on third place in Class B, while the tWO-mile relay team in which Ellson, Drew, Monday and Stevens ran, won seventh place in Class B. This ended Marions track season with the exception of the class meet held at Thomas Park the first part of May. Girls also participated in this meet.

This difficulty was overcome by Coach Hines who succeeded in getting permis- sion to build a track. The members of the squad started work on this in April. The remainder of the track season will be recorded in the 1929 Quill. Page Ninetysthree C Ml GIRLS ATHLETICS VOLLEY BALL Much enthusiasm was shown for Volley Ball this year, in spite of the fact that it was started late. The G. A. A. sponsored a tournament in this sport. In this round-robin tournament, the Juniors, by defeating the Senior, in a hard-fought game, won the championship. The Senior players are as followse Cap taineFrances Ovington Pauline Oakley Evelyn Larkin Dora Callahan Ruth Beach Teresa Naso Marguerite Dye The J unior players are as follows- CaptaineLouise Carpenter Bertha Tudeen Della Koppenhaver Bernice Kindig Lucille Huss Lene Niell Mildred Mellish Maymie Reinheimer Catherine Reinheimer Ruby Gaines J osephine Ingram Louella Rogers Hazel Schultz Mildred Little Bernice Smith Ruth Crew Winifred Lowe Catherine Wiley BASKET BALL Basketball in girFS athletics seemed to be the favored sport this year. Many of the players were experienced in this game, so the season was started with much enthusiasm. A number of new girls also showed their interest by participating in the sport. The Class championship of the High School was determined by a game which was played as a curtain-raiser at the Vinton-Marion game. All through the contest there was much hard playing, and at the end the score was tied. In the over-time period Pauline Oakley made a basket, thus awarding the Victory and the championship t0 the Seniors.

A swift return to his uncle,s home gained the protection that carried him safely past his telephone-pole panther. 0 AN UNFAILING SUPPLY Rolland Goudy, aged three, at the end of each round of ploughing carried a drink of water to his father.

Patronage results from confidence, and confidence rests upon an established reputation for high standards and fair dealing. When a business institution, anywhere, in any place, builds up a large list of patrons, among the best people in its trade territory, and holds their confidence and good will through a long period of years, that fact is in itself a guaran- tee that it is well administered, and that its goods and its service stand the test. It is safer to pat- ronize an old house, known to be strong, than to do business with a concern whose strength and the quality of whose service have not been tested by time.
