FRANCES ALLEN Hampton, Iowa JOE KAUFMAN Chicago, Illinois Class History In September, 1930, the goodship '34 left the shores of Eighth Grade and with its crew of eighty-five set out for the Land of Commencement. Each sailor was, of course, equipped with the necessary articles for a safe voyage. As soon as all were on board and the gangplank pulled in, the sailors began their various tasks in Algebra, Latin, English, etc. The ship pro- ceeded full speed ahead under the direction of General Bragg. She was assisted by several mates-President, Garth Hunter: Vice-President, Harriett McDonnell: Secretary, Clinton Gatewood, and Treasurer, Marian Burrows. For the iirst three years the admiral, Mr. Vernon, oversaw the fleet and sometimes some lazy sailor was called into conference with him. After some time of hard labor, the sailors began to show some signs of improvement. X-Y:Z was no longer a mystery. They joined glee clubs, band, E. N. T. club, G. A. A. club, and G. R. in great numbers. Le Nora Dippel, Henry Arp, and Lyle Van Fossen represented the 34 in debate: and George Alcock, in declam. A number of the crew went out for athletics: Bob Smith won a letter in football. George,Hennessey represented the ship in the state academic meet in general science. Social events marked the first year of the journey. One of them was the first Homecoming Dance for the whole fleet. Because of their faithfulness the sailors were all given a leave of ab- sence for three months. In the fall most of the sailors returned, and the ship began on the second part of its journey with Captain Ruth Rummens. The officers elected were Garth Hunter, President: Marian Burrows, Vice-President: page twenty Dale Smith, Secretaryg and Mary Adelaide Albaugh, Treasurer. A number of parties were enjoyed by the crew this year. Also the shipmates settled down to harder work. More were included in band and glee club. A second year Latin club was formed by Miss Hunt. In debate our record was upheld by Le Nora Dippel, Lyle Van Fos- sen, and Martin Atkins. Three of the crew were taken in as members of the M club: Bob Shirley, Garth Hunter, and Dale Smith. In the state academic meet, our ship was represented by Robert Titus, James Vernon, Melvin Oldfather, and Mary Adelaide Albaugh. This year and the following vacation passed so quickly that before long we were in the third stage of our long trip. The seamen were under the guidance of Miss Vera Wood, assisted by four members of the 34 : Melvin Oldfather as President, Warren Hunter as Vice-President, Allan King as Secretary, and George Oxley as Treasurer, were mates. More of the crew added to the M club were Kenneth Winter, Jim, Reynolds, Allan King, Warren Hunter, and Clinton Gatewood. In debate were found the two old faithfuls-Le Nora Dippel and Lyle Van Fossen. Representatives at academic meets were Robert Titus, James Vernon, Rayworth Ozias, and Bessie Neff. Bessie placed second in biology. Four of the crew of the 34 were elected to Delta Sigma Delta, they were Byrdena Cunningham, Le Nora Dippel, Robert Titus, and Melvin Old- father. Instead of the customary three-act play, this year the crew under the direction of Miss Barnett presented three one-act plays. The mariners who worked hard to make these the success they were included Winfred Davis, Frank Flack, Don Fish, James Vernon, Robert Smith, Janet Lothian, Dorothy Smith, Margaret Bisek, Mable Coon, Arline Starry, Margaret Zak, and Mary Adelaide Albaugh. A post-exam jubilee was held by the crews of the 33 and 34 . But the huge success of the year was the Junior-Senior Banquet, held, after much controversy, in the I. O. O. F. Hall. It was as big an event as planned, and everyone of the crew enjoyed it. Next autumn after a vacation, the crew of the 34 was impressed with the fact that this was the last portion of their long sea journey. Admiral Vernon's post was filled by Mr. Finger for the last year. Mr. Shuttswas captain and the mates this year were President, Bob Shirley, Vice-Presi- dent, Garth Hunterg Secretary, Walter Heffron, and Treasurer, Laura Shirley. Our football team under Captain Garth Hunter had an undefeated seasong those winning M's were Devere Fehr, Donovan Price, and Richard Hatt. Six more of the crew were elected to Delta Sigma Delta, Dale Smith, George Oxley, Henry Arp, Frances De Long, Eleanor Hanna, and Mary Adelaide Albaugh. Plans were made for our year book under the editor, Melvin Old- father. To climax this lengthy journey will be baccalaureate, class day, and the banquet. But when the Land of Commencement is reached, it will be through the last and final port, Graduation. page twenty-one I I I I. I I I LL I ' I 34.

Their Hrst ofiicial act was to elect officers as follows: Robert Munsen, Presidentg Billy Campbell, Vice-Presidentg Ken- neth Potter, Secretaryg Lois Lockwood, Treasurer. Their first party was a Weiner roast at Shaeffer Park in October. They also joined the seniors in a dance the latter part of November.

This year the band and solos again took high honors at the sub-district contest held at Monticello. The band, which played as a selected number the class A required number, Finlandia, was ranked superior. The other entries with their rankings follow: Woodwind Sextette, superior, composed of Robert Titus, Ruth Murphey, clarinets, ,Anna Helen Martin, alto clarinet, Helen Pyle, oboe, Hilmar Christianson, bassoon, Lewis Har- lan, French horn, brass quartette, superior, composed of John Titus, Richard Little, cornets, Donald Bragg, Gaylord Ward, trombones, clarinet solo, superior, Robert Titus, trombone solo, superior, Donald Bragg, oboe solo, superior, Helen Pyle, tuba solo, superior, Melvin Oldfather, French horn solo, excellent, Lewis Harlan, baritone solo, superior, Carrie Hanson, violin solo, superior, Harold Horn, piano solo, excellent, Frank Flack.

CUMMINS A newcomer on the Marion High coaching staff, Jack , bringing with him from another school a record he may well be proud of and a new system of basketball play with which the limited basketball material was unfamiliar, began to build a. team by aiming not especially at a winning team but a team well versed in the funda- mentals of basketball. Although the season's record may not be particularly im- pressive to the casual observer, it is still significant that Jack was accomplishing things, for as the season progressed the scores indicated that the boys were learning and also playing a better brand of basketball. Near the end of the season: the team came into its own and demonstrated what we may expect from Cummins-coached teams in the coming years. H. E. PYE Undoubtedly part of the credit for the excellent record inscribed in the history of our school by a. team which can only be described in superlatives is rightfully deserved by Mr. Pye. In his first year as a member of the coaching staff of Marion High School, Mr. Pye not only became popular and well-liked by all with whom he came in contact, but also proved to be of no small value in helping develop a winning team. We feel quite sure that in the future Mr. Pye will help turn out more good football teams. D. P. WOLFE An all-around athlete himself, Coach Wolfe in his six years as athletic mentor of Marion High School has proven his ability to impart his knowledge and skill to his protegees by turning out many successful athletic teams in recent years. However, he has not limited his activities to turning out winning teams, but has also exerted a remarkable influence on the characters of his athletes and their schoolmates by the earnest endeavors in behalf of good sportsmanship and good fellowship which are characteristic of Coach Wolfe. He is respected, esteemed, admired, and looked up to by the students of Marion High not only because of his success in producing good athletic teams, but because he is such a vital factor in maintaining that elusive, in- definable something called school spirit. page forty-three George Oxley, Manager, Mr. Wolfe, Coach, Robert Widger, Ivan King, Allan McKean, Charles Oxley, Robert Shirley, Ross Edwards, DeVere Fehr, Allan King, Dale Smith, Mr. Pye, Assistant Coach, Marian Hendrickson, Assistant Manager, Dale Luwe, Dick Hatt, Waldo Johnson, Billy Reed, Clinton Gatewood, Robert Smith, Junior Reed, Garth Hunter, Captaing Donovan Price, Richard Derflinger, Wallace Oldfather, Henry Arp, J.

Football Squad Tri-Valley Champions The Marion High football squad of 1933 continued the fine play that has featured Cardinal clad teams for five years. Although playing one of the hardest schedules ever attempted by a Marion team, the squad ca.me through with eight wins and one tie out of nine games played. The Tri- Valley championship came to Marion as a result of the wins over Manchester and Independence and the tie with Vinton. Prospects were not good at the beginning of the season as only five lettermen were back from the great 1932 team. Every line post had to be filled with untried material, and one new man had to be broken into the backiield. The team improved with every start, however, and by mid- season a successful record was assured. Outstanding games were played with Tipton, Vinton, and Anamosa. The Turkey Day game, played at Anamosa, was won by the large score of 33 to 7, when Bob Smith and Captain Hunter ran wild behind the excellent blocking of their team-mates. Letters were awarded to Captain Hunter, Robert Smith, Clinton Gate- wood, Donovan Price, Junior Reed, Dale Smith, Allan King, Ross Edwards, DeVere Fehr, Ivan King, Richard Hatt, Robert Widger, Robert Shirley, and Manager George Oxley.

Basketball The 1933-34 basketball squad of about forty candidates reported to Coach Cummins at the beginning of cage practice. After a few weeks of scrimmage, the squad was cut to seventeen, of which four were lettermen: Captain Robert Smith, Robert Shirley, Dale Smith, and Kenneth Winter. Prospects were bright at the beginning of the season because of the lettermen, the reserves from last year's squad, and some promising soph- omores. However, the boys cou1dn't seem to settle down and click. After a slow start, in which the squad had to accustom themselves to the Cum- mins style of play, they developed rapidly. Only two of the regular scheduled games were won, but by the time of the sectional tournament, the team found its stride and staged the high- light of the show, as well as the 1933-34 season, by defeating Grant, 23-20. Marion's old traditional rival, Anamosa, was also defeated by a score of 35-7 in the semi-finals, but the iinals were dropped' to Washington High of Cedar Rapids. Robert Smith and Robert Shirley ended three years of brilliant competition by being selected as guard and center, respectively, on the all- sectional tournament team. Letter winners for the season were Captain Robert Smith, Robert Shir- ley, Dale Smith, Donovan Price, Kenneth Winter, Ross Edwards, Dale Luwe, and Junior Reed. Edwards, Luwe, and Reed will be back to form the nucleus of next year's team. . Summary of I933-34 Season ' so 20 ' Marion .............. 25 Grant KC. RJ ............ Marion ..............

King was valuable at one endg He always had a. hand to lend. Fehr, though not very large, Could hit his men like a huge freight barge. Reed, too, was fast and small- When Hunter was out, he carried the ball. Gatewood was slow, but he was tough- A valuable man when the going was rough. Next year Ike will lead us on, And we'll ring up victories one by one. Gus has been at it for only a year, But he gave the crowd many causes to cheer. Hunter was spotted in every game, But he seldom failed to make a gain. Cob caught passes from every angleg His brains got us out of many a tangle. Widger and Hatt could both play guardg So they battled it out on the old school yard. Basketball Letlzermen Kenney was one of the four letter- men- He did his work in the tournament. Gus, a soph, played well and hard: He'll take Smith's place next year at guard. Donny was small but full of fightg He did his best every single night. Shirley jumped center because he was tall: Grant was lost when he handled the ball Bob was a steady guard all season: Four years of playing was the reason. Cob, a forward, fit the bill His job next year will be hard to fill. Luwe was only a soph this yearg We're glad he's coming back next year. The sophs have another brilliant play- er in Reedg He has everything Marion High will need. Coach had a job in teaching his style of play, But the team gradually learned it day by day. Every team has a. manager, and George was ours: He shot baskets as well as got cars. page forty-seven f I l L 746 -es' Q 1 L L 34 l 1 , ,,,, Back Row-James Reynolds, Rayworth Ozias, Clyde Lutz, Dale Luwe, Clinton Gatewood, George Oxley, Robert Smith. .Middle Row-Henry Arp, Dale Hazlett, Fay Harris, Billy Reed, Ivan King, Donald Nelson, Harold Horn.

The t.rack in the old gym was used until the weather per- mitted the squad to go out-of-doors, and then the team rounded into shape by the use of the Coe track. The squad did not participate in as many meets as usual due to the lack of funds. Wolfe proved his coaching ability by comprising a team of in- experienced and experienced men to win two trophies at State Teachers Relays, second place in the Tri-Valley meet held at Vinton, and fourth in the district meet at Coe. The Meets Iowa State Teachers Relays-Led by Captain Harte, the quarter and half mile relay teams, composed of Hunter, Atz, Harte, and McDougall, opened the schedule by breaking two records at I. S. T. The medley relay team placed second, the two mile third, and the mile fifth. Grmnell-At Grinnell there was still competition by the larger schools, but James Reynolds placed second in the half mile run, and Hunter fourth in the low hurdles. Tri-Valley-In this conference meet Hunter won the low hurdles, 100 and 220 yard dashes, Dale Smith placed in the quarter, James Reynolds in the half, Ray Smith in the shot put, Harte and McDougall in the dashes, Hempy in the half mile, and Brady in the discus. The following made enough points to win awards for the season: Captain Marvin Harte, Galen McDougall, Richard Atz, Garth Hunter, Donald Hempy, Waldo Johnson, James Reynolds, Dale Smith, Raymond Smith, and Francis Brady. page forty-eight Bach Row-Miss Ruth Crew, Sponsorg Margaret Zak, Alice Shekelton, Eleanor Hanna Mary Bisek, Mary Adelaide Albaugh, Dorothy Smith.

Athletic Reporter The girls' athletic association of Marion High School was organized nine years ago. It is one of the outstanding organizations in the school this year. Its chief interest is to promote fair play, sportsmanship, and to encourage the various sports and athletics among high school girls. page forty-nine 34 I 14 2' 0766-Fi L '34 Girls' Athletics Physical education has become one of the most essential features of the high school curriculum, combining in itself the aim of all education. which is to show the way to better living and character development. The immediate results of physical education in the way of physical Well-being, so essential to success and happiness, are not to be overlooked. Co-ordination of muscles, body control, and poise are great assets to every girl in all phases of her life. Much of the work accomplished this year, such as Danish gym, tumbling, basketball, volleyball, and various relays, is an important aid in obtaining these results.

W 7 W 1- Who's Who -U Garth Hunter His ability to make friends, his ever-ready wit and humor, his habit of looking at the humorous side of things, and his pleasant, genial manners are only a few of the reasons why this honor has been be- stowed upon Garth. Besides this, he is an all around ath- lete, an active member of the various organizations, and a leader among his classmates. Those who know him will not question his right to be select- ed as the outstanding senior boy for 1934. Harriett McDonnell Undoubtedly the fact that this is the second time she has been chosen for this hon- or proves that Harriett is de- serving of the honor bestowed upon her. Her ever present smile, her sparkling wit and humor, and her friendliness to everyone with whom she comes in contact are unde- niable evidences of her right to this honor. .ff page yifty-three L Class Poem The Files! Files ! Oflice Files ! Oblige me by referring to the files. Every question man can raise Every phrase of every phase Of that question is on record in the files. All our deeds at Marion High In black and white that does not lie May be found in the all-recording, all-effacing files. Files ! Files of Life they're called ! Soon into this selfish world Sixty-three of us will go Every action, sorrow, woe Triumph, victory will show As blazes in the mazes of the files. Files ! Files of Death ! When on the last day we kneel before His throne And God turns the pages of the Book Turns them back to take a look To trace each all-forgot career Review each man who made his boast Hear the ghosts? May they wake applauding in the files. The Files of Death E The Files of Life I Duplicates of Marion High's. They'll stand forever-Time cannot mar They'll tell the ages what we are.

The earliest Quills were made up of several sections, arranged in the following order: Editorial, Literary, Local, Athletics, and Exchange. The Exchange was a column of comments, both critical and complimen- tary, on other school publications. Comments about the Quill taken from other school Exchanges were also printed. The following articles are excerpts from various editions of the Quill through the thirty years of its existence. EDITORIALS October, 1907 After much discussion among the members of the staff, it was decided to enlarge the Quill from the first issue, if not in number of pages, at least in size of them. In this way we hope to better the appearance of our publication, and later on we expect to be able to add more pages. One of the most worthy institutions of our school last year was the Debating Club. Most of the boys took great interest in all the subjects and the work was marked by much originality of thought in the arguments propounded by the members. Much merriment was afforded by the trial. May, 1907 The June number of the Quill will be given up almost entirely to Commencement and Class Day exercises. With this issue the 1907 editors bid farewell to the students of the school, exchanges, and all other sub- scribers. The year's work has been profitably spent by us and we hope that our subscribers have not been disappointed with our humble efforts. Next year the class of 1908 will have a chance to try their hand at high school journalism. We heartily hope that they may be strong where we have been weak and may make the Quill a true exponent of the high class work done in our Marion High School. We believe they will work with a determination to win the fullest success. This notice would be incomplete without recognizing the part which Miss Jenkins has had in issuing the Quill this year. Her encourage- ment and untiring efforts in school and out have done much to add to the inexperience of the editors. We take this opportunity of showing our appreciation and we hereby thank her for her efforts. LITERARY November, 1907 TO A MOUSE Ah, yes! thou vainly strov'st thy best, Thou couldst before thy doom have guessedg For many an eye was on thy crest, With thoughts of murder, Thou might'st have fled back to thy nest Hadst thou but heard her. Wast thou by some foul mischief led? Or was some Siren greeting said, To lure thee on, to crush thee dead? That swift foot-fall That came so sudden on thy head ATHLETICS May, 1907 The Girls' High School Basket Ball team was defeated by the Waterloo team on the return game, held on the Marion High School ground, Sat- urday, April 13. The score stood 7 to 6 at the end of the game, which iWith apologies to Burnsj Wee, sleekit, cow'rin', timorous beastie, Cam's thou to seek a High School feastie ? What caused such pain in thy breastie, When thou'dst appeared? That cloud of gloom that fell sae hasty, Thou shouldst have feared. Ah, little mousie, thou didst stray, Far from thy cozy home that day, What did our High School Mistress say Thy brains to rattle? Sad lookers-on, not far away, Saw all the battle. Has ended all. -Marie Cline, '08 page seventy-six shows that it was very close and exciting. As there was a strong wind blowing during the time of the play, few field baskets were made and team work was impossible, on account of the inaccurate throws, caused by the opposing winds. The visiting team was very fast and played a snappy game, although their tactics were very rough. Goldie Nichol, one of the forwards, had a very difiicult opponent, who towered above her and caused considerable trouble. Mabelle Woodward handled the ball well at foul baskets, securing six throws for her team. May Harris of Waterloo played an excellent game as forward, although she made few field throws. December, 1907 The Marion High School team played Anamosa a slippery game of basketball on a dancing floor at their town, Friday evening, Nov. lst. It was the return game with Anamosa and was looked forward to with a great deal of interest. Although the game ended in disaster for Marion, it was a snappy game from start to finish. The odds Marion had to con- tend against went a long way toward defeating her. During the first half Marion did not get into the game as well as she did in the second half. Anamosa piled up a score of 17 to Marion's 5. This can be accounted for by the fact that the Marion boys found it hard work to stay on their feet and to make basket stops of a type new to them. During the second half Marion jumped into the game right from the start and showed she could play ball even though defeat was a foregone conclusion. The latter part of the last half showed Marion at her best. If they had played all through the game as they played then, the score would undoubtedly have been in her favor. Those who saw the game at Anamosa and the one at Marion say that the one at Anamosa was by far the better. As a whole it was a fast, clean game on both sides. The teams were a credit to their schools. Anamosa's ability at throwing baskets was a great point-winner for her, as she missed only two out of eleven free throws. Here Marion was decidedly weak. As to teamwork, Anamosa again excelled Marion. But as to indi- viduals, Webb did some close guarding, Schultz played a strong game, while Rogers, Fulkerson, and Cornelius showed up well. On the Anamosa team, Fife starred in free throws at the basket, while Ellison and Fisher made good in throwing field baskets. The line-up was as follows: Marion-Rogers, r. f., Cornelius, l. f.g Shultz, c.g Webb, r. g., Fulker- son, 1. g. Anamosa-Fife, r. f., Fairbanks, 1. f., Barker, c., Fisher, r. g., Ellison, 1. g. A number of boys, accompanied by their coach, Mr. Boyer, went over to Anamosa to attend the return game of basketball. The game was played in the evening, thus necessitating the boys to stay over night. They re- turned the next morning, declaring the Anamosa people to be royal hosts. On Friday, Nov. 15, the boys of the school had their first cross country run. The Freshmen showed their athletic ability by winning first and third places, Harold Reid and Donald Lawrence making 5 and 3 points respectively. Second place was won by Stewart Rodger of the Eleventh Grade. Should any one of these boys win the final race, his name will bc engraved on the cup presented last year by Merle Alderman for this event. The boys did exceedingly well, covering the ground in 9:40.
