SENIORS Four years ago a group of unusually green students entered the welcoming portals of Marion High School and were given the initial steps of their educa- tion. Since then they have wended their way back and forth across the f'Luta in their sorrows and their joys and the old river alone has noted the transforma- tion. When the summer breezes rippled its surface it sang and was happy with them. When winter sealed its lips with its icy clutch it was speechless but' still shared in the activities of the class of '25. Now it is past. Soon the now familiar footsteps will no longer resound upon the old stone bridge but will be substituted for by less experienced ones. Thus the class of '25 goes out leaving only memories and a record of many achievements while the Luta U Hows on. a n Page 10 mlm MARION- DOROTHY McCuLLoUc.H Her very frowns are fairer far than smiles of other maidens are.

We entered with the determina- tion to make the history of our class one of the deserving of favorable comment. To make this possible we entered into every school activity. One of the marked characteristics of the class of '26 is its ever present pep. Not one of the various activities of M. H. S. was neglected. The religious organizations, Hi-Y and Girls Reserve, received their share of attention with many members in the cabinets and general membership. Our class has presented unique entertainments for the student body. Members ofthe Junior class have taken a decided part in athletics. Next year five men will uphold red and blue on the gridiron. Likewise, in basketball three players will do much in making 1926 a successful basketball year. Three Juniors participated in track this year. In the Sophomore year of the class of '26 a member represented M. H. S. in the county lite- rary contest in declamation. She was awarded first place in declamation in class B in the Winfield Contest. This year in the county contest for both declamation and oration, two Junior girls were victorious. In the contest which is conducted by the Kansas Municipalities and participated in by mem- bers ofthe Civics classes, a Junior girl won first place with her essay ' 'My Home Town. 'l This same individual was a member of the debate team which debated Newton and Tabor Academy. The class of '26 ended a successful school year when they entertained at the annual Junior- Senior Banquet in the Christian Church basement on May 8.

As the class of 1927 started on its four-year tour through high school in September 1923, we were met by the class of '26 who gave us a royal reception. Having been thus welcomed, we tried to show our interest and loyalty to our school by entering into all school activities. Our men were out for football, basketball and track. The Junior-High Basketball Team- The Dreadnaughts-was composed largely of men in the class of '27. We were also represented in the County Music Contest and in the Declamation tryout. By the end of the year we were very enthusiastic about our tour and most of us decided to stay with the party on the next lap of the journey. The present school year, the Sophomore class was well represented in football having two men who earned their letters besides some second team men. In basketball we were especially fortunate to have one man on the regular squad and this year made a similar Showing in Track. We were well represented in both the Boys' and the Girls' Glee Clubs in the County Music Contestl Also the Sophomores took their part in the High School Operetta. As we near the end of the school part of our journey we are all glad that we secured a ticket on this particular tourg and although there may have been some hardships and disccuragement the joys and pleasures have far outnumbered them. We hope to be able to make use of our through ticket and shall be waiting next September, baggage ready, anxious to start on the third part of our tour. a s Page 27 QXIAGLMIAMQNQ-A .

H. S. We first had to choose our course and the majority of us chose the college. Our officers have steered their fifty four passengers clear of most of the rocks. Although none of our crew or passengers made the football squad nevertheless, we were well represented on the second string which took the hard knocks every evening. On looking over the list of members ofthe basketball team known as the Dreadnaughts one may see the names of some of our passengers. Some of the candidates for the track team may be found in our midst. Not only along athletic lines do we fmd our passengers represented but also on the debate team. We have had many good times and probably the most enjoyable occasion was the Fresh- Sophomore reception where we were royally entertained. Another special event was the Freshman hike. We have asked for a furlough of three months to remodel the Sophomore ship which is now in use. We shall all be experienced next year, hence, we shall progress more rapidly. So watch Sophomores next year. Our ship will dock in May 1928. During our voyage we shall endeavor to be loyal sons and daughters of old M. H. S.

With a membership of ninety-five, the organization has been a vital factor in the school life this year. Twice each month the club has met to discuss various problems of the high school girl. High lights in the year 's work were,the get acquainted party in the fall,the State Conference at Winfield, the Community Christmas service, the County Conference at Florence to which Marion sent forty-four delegates, and the Mother and Daughter Banquet in the spring which was attended by practically every girl in high school. Whether it was selling ' 'hot dogsu at the football games, attendening a Conference, or holding a devotional meeting the Girl Reserve girl has been an admirable figure in Marion High. HI-Y CABINET BILL BLACKIM MR. EVANS MAURICE MCINTOSH DONALD MCINTOSH Boa FLORER I-I1-Y CABINET Clean living, clean speech, clean athletics, and clean scholarship is the slogan of the Hi-Y Club, the high school branch of the Young Men's Christian Association. The organization has a membership of about thirty per cent of the boys in Marion High and has been an important factor in the school life. This year marks the beginning of an affiliated club at Marion. With the rapid progress made and the interest shown thus far the club hopes to render a more broad and extensive service next year. Meetings have been held twice each month at which various problems in the life of a high school boy have been discussed. Outside speakers have also addressed the club at various times. Two of the high lights of the year 's work were the state conference at Winfield and the county conference at Marion at which the Marion club was host. The Cabinet, composed of four elected members and four committee chairmen, acts in the capacity of the executive committee, directing the work of the organization.

We, the 1925 ' 'Marion staff, have striven to produce a book worthy of the school which it represents. Whether we have succeeded or not is for you who read it to decide. We can only hope that it has given to you a ' 'Book of Memories which, whenever its pages are turned will bring back reminiscences dear to the heart of every M. H. S. student and that our efforts will meet with the approval of the entire student body, whose loyal support and coop- eration has made this book possible.

The Booster for this year has been edited by the English IV Class under the supervision of Miss Aller. Although no study in Journalism was made, several members of the staff have had pervious experience in Journalism and their paper has been a credit to the staff as well as to Marion High School as a whole. The Football and Basketball editions, which were published at the end of each of these seasons were especially valued by M. H. S. students. The special Senior edition which was issued a few days before the close of school was a worthy climax to a successful year of High School publications. Page 33 CWACMARIQNAT Q' if? fix? is DEBATE MR. BROWN DAv1D WHEELER JAMES RAY HELEN TAYLOR ' MARJORIE WINCHESTER MABEL RAY RUTH RICHARDSON M. H. S. Debate Teams, coached by Mr. Brown, made splendid showings in dual debates with Newton High School and Tabor College Academy Teams. Marion held Newton, Arkansas Valley Champions and only undefeated team in this section of the state, to the closest grading which they had received in any of their contests, a difference of but two points average. In the debate with Tabor, Marion 's negative team won the decision while the affirmative team lost by a small margin. The affirmative team included Mabel Ray, David Wheeler, and Helen Taylor. Those up- holding the negative were Ruth Richardson, Marjorie Winchester, and James Ray, ORATORY' AND DECLAMATION Marion High's entrees in the Literary contest this spring brought unusual success and honor to their school by placing lirst in both events. Esther Janke's reading, which won for her a beautiful gold medal and a magnificent cup for the school, was entitled ' 'The Song and the Man . Because ofits Italian dialect and tense feeling it was a very difficult selection and Esther's rendation of it was extraordinarily effective and artistic. Mable Ray, who was likewsie awarded with a gold medal and a large cup for the school, used as her oration subject, America at the Crossroads. This was a strong presentation of the problem of increasing lawlessness in America and given in Mabel's pleasing and direct style it was very successful, Mabel placed first in the declamation contest at Winfield last year. A great deal of credit for the success of these contestants is due Miss Aller, who coached Marion 's entrees in both literary events. a s Page 34 I X J Ji I AKLXXI W!

COACH BILL MONYPENY The members of the football squad, the student body, and the Marion fans are united in the belief that no school in Kansas has a better leader than their own coach. lv Mr. Monypeny, while a student in Emporia Teachers College, played under the coaching of Bill Hargiss. He was twice chosen on the all Kansas team, and because of the unusual ability shown as Captain of his teamfduring 1916 season, his senior year, was named as captain of the mythical all-state team. He knows the game from beginning to end, is ever alert to gain new ideas, and has the faculty of putting his ideas across. He knows how to instill the right kind of ideals and spirit in his men and insists upon every man doing his level best. His five years in charge of this sport and his valuable help that has been given in all athletic sports have made him well known in athletic circles through out the state. The best wishes of the faculty and student body will go with him in his new work as assis- tant coach and dean of men at Southwestern College. COACH HERSCHEL CORNWELL The success of the basketball season just closed is in no small degree due to the effective work of Coach Cornwell. Cornwell came here from Southwestern College, where he was a prominent athlete, and has proved himself a capable coach by turning out probably the two best basketball teams in the his- tory of Marion High, in fact a team that was able to snatch a victory from the National High Champions of '25, He was an expert judge of basketball, and knew how to get the best results from his men. His personality was such that when the team went on the Court they felt that they were fighting for a double victory, one for the school and the other for their coach. We regret the fact that this is Mr. Cornwells last year in the Marion schools. He will con- tinue his school work at Southwestern College next year where he will no doubt be an outstanding figure in college athletics. a n Page 36 9166 MARJQNQ S XY, , 5 L, 1 -e .

Two undefeated teams, a team with a tie and defeat, and a team with two defeats in the past four years. Marion has counted 1,325 points to her opponents 68 in 36 games with the best teams of the state. No team can boast of having a lead of more than 10 points on Marion in the past four years. In no game during the season of '24 did the team fail to make the most yardage and First downs. Many times gained double and triple the yardage of the opponent, but counted medi- ocre seore. The team did not lose heart after her defeat by Council Grove, but still retained the same old determination characteristic of all Marion teams, and finished the season with the largest score.

Young was the only man on the team playing his fourth year with the Red and Blue, It has been his pleasure to play on two all victorious teams. He was cool and heady proving himself a good leader. WILLIS ' 'Wis TRUSLER, Senior, Left Halt' ' 'Wis came to us from Roosevelt High School of Emporia after playing two years on that team. Wis's natural athletic ability gave him the chance to show his great value in open field running. Circling an end run for a ten or fifteen yard gain was not uncommon for hixn. HAROLD ' 'DUTCI-I HAUSER, Senior, Full Back When season opened last fall the coaches found themselves up against the proposition of developing a fullback. Dutch had to be pulled from his position at end and developed into a hard-hitting good interfering, running back. WALKER Joi-INN1E GREER, Senior, Right Hall' What ' 'Johnnie lacked in weight he more than made up in speed and Fight and because of this proved to be one of Marion 's most dependable backs. He was a shoe-string tackler and a good ground gainer. His specialty was converting intercepted passes into touchdowns, the last being vs. the Ark 's in his last game for M. H. S. WILLARD Wm TRUSLER, Senior, Left End Wid was the big boy who was seen performing around right end for the past two years. He came to us from Emporia where he played two years with Roosevelt High. PAUL BROQKER, Sophomore, Right End Paul won his First letter playing end for the Terrible Tribe the past season. The way he played during the game with Council Grove showed his true worth as an end. Paul was usually the first man down on punts, and received passes well. Paul has two more years to iight for old M. H. S. and he will make a valuable man on next years squad. EARL WINKLEY, Senior, Right Tackle No man was better built for tackle than Wink . His favorite past-time was getting through the enemy 's line, breaking up forward passes and blocking punts. ' 'Wink was a power at opening holes for with speed and weight he just couldn't be stopped. MAURICE MU'r'r WILLIAMS, junior, Left Tackle He played defensive football in his true man-eating style. No man ever cared to be tackled by Mutt more than once. He could break through the line and nip play after play in the bud. Williams will complete his fourth year of football for old M. H. S. next fall. a s Page 38 girlie Maaiowjmg DAVID ' KDAVEH WHEELER, Senior, Left Guard Dave was no doubt the ' 'iightenest' man on the team. He was a hard hitting and consis- tent player. He had the knack of breaking through the line and catching the opponents before they got started. He was able to make a hole for a line plunge at any state of the game. HOWARD SHIELDS, Junior, Right Guard Shields came to us from Antelope last fall hardly knowing what a football looked like. But possessing the requisites for a good player the love of the game and a determination to learn the game Shields big stocky build made him seem like a stone wall. If you are in doubt of his ability to handle opponents, ask the boy who played against him in the Emporia game. ESTEL MCGHAY, Senior, Center ' :Hemp was Marionls big rangy center, whose judgment was good and whose passes were always true. A 'Hemp claims the distinction of playing every minute of the past season 's games. He is a power in the center of the line stopping everything that comes his way. ALEX MEHLINGER, Senior, Halt' ' 'Dutch had more than his share of hard luck, for injured knees which he received in the middle of the season kept him handicapped, throughout the remaining part of the season, but his 'love for the game kept him hard at it. Wnco BASS, Senior, Utility Bass hailed from Lincolnville last fall. He had no former experience in the pig-skin game, but Was ,ea ECI' to learn and possessing the qualities of size and speed became a potent factor to the Terrible Tribe. He became a hard hitting back and also a good consistent guard . Wu.LAltD -' 'W1D REMMERS, Junior, Half Th1S IS ' 'Wid 's first year in the grid game as he received an injury the first week of practice a year ago that forced him out for the remaining season. Wid is a Comer and will be a mainstay next year for the aggregation as he can punt, pass, and lug the ball with ability. OR'-'E WIFCOX, Sophomore, Quarter l Orlie is the smallest man on the team but not the least when it comes to headwork. When Oflle Played quarter every man on the team felt that everything was right. His head work won the confidence of the team, GILBERT Mo-rr, Junior, Utility , 6 KGIHY, , played full and guard through out the season, and showed his ability to lug the pig- Slfm and run interference in the Turkey day game. Mott is a hard hitter and next year will find hlm Playing around full. a s Page 39 QLQMAHIQNW as .. BASKET BALL GROUP Coach CORNWELL, WILLIAMS, EHRLICI-I, HAUSER, Assistant Coach MQNYPENY WIS TRUSLER Captain, WID TRUSLER REMMERS Bkoolclan DAVIS BASKETBALL The Basketball season just closed is the most successful one the school has yet had. Marion's victories over Wichita, runner up in the Arkansas Valley League and National B. B. Champions, Arkansas City, also runner up in the Arkansas Valley League and close scores with Newton, Champions of this league the past season, an organization which is recognized as playing the best ball in this section of the country, is conclusive evidence that Marion has played a splendid brand of ball throughout the seascn. After the regular season closed the team went to the District Tournament at Emporia where they were defeated in the finals by the Emporia Highs. The next week they went to the Sec- tional meet at Ottawa where they defeated the strong Argentine team in the Semi-finals which threw the ancient rivals, Marion and Emporia together again. Emporia won after a hard fought game, but Marion was presented with a handsome second place trophy. This entitled Marion to go to the State Tournament which is in itself a compliment. Marion was eliminated in the State meet by Kansas City. The total season's scores were Marion 612, opponents, 522. a s Page 40 5511.6 Dil oy-35,5 .2 WILLARD ' 'WID TRUSLER, Captain, Guard, Senior Too much cannot be said of' 'Wid 's ability as a basketball player. His unerring team work, together with his spectacular science in handling the ball was a feature of the Marion play. CHESTER ' 'CHET' El-IRLICH, Center, junior ' 'Chet made his first letter in basketball this year. He is tall and was seldom out jumped. He developed into a good defensive as well as offensive man. M. H. S. is lucky in having this athlete back next year. WILLARD ' 'WIDU REMMERS, Forward, junior ' 'Wid played most of the season at forward where he played a brilliant game. But late in the season due to the sickness of Ehrlich was placed at center where he started in the three tourna- ments. With an abundance of athletic ability we are counting on ' 'Wid to be better than ever next year. MAURICE UMUTT,, WILLIAMS, Guard, junior ' 'Mutt played hard, consistent ball throughout the entire season. He always stood out in Marion 's defense as a star of the game. This athlete has one more year to perform for Marion High. HAROLD UDUTCHU HAUSER, Forward, Senior Dutch ranks second to Wis in the total number of points scored during the last season. He played consistent basketball both on defense and offense and because of his size and aggressive- ness was hard to stop. WILLIS WIS TRUSLER, Forward, Senior ' 'Wis copped individual honors in having scored the most points for Marion this year. His ability to dribble, dodge and evade opponents were special features of his playing. DoN DEAK DAVIS, Forward, Senior This is ' 'Deak 's' ' First and last year at basketball. He fights all the time when in the game and is a bear on team work. Deak has always given his best for the team. PAUL BROOKER, Guard, Sophomore Paul is a little but a mighty guard. He has developed into a good dribbler, plays the floor well and has a keen eye for the basket. This is his first year of High School Basketball but beware. a n Page 41 mba MARION a L j'UST IMAGINE Louisa BELL seven feet tall. EVELYN HAUSER weighing 300 pounds EDWARD GooD with a girl.

This production, directed by MISS SORENSEN was considered one of the most decided suc- cesses of the school year, both musically and dramatically.

I LH, , MIXED QUARTET WILLARD TRusI.ER, LAURAINE MA'rLocIc, ESTHER Bowuav, HAROLD HAusER The Mixed Quartet showed unusual ability in their work this year, by the fact that they placed second in the County Music Contest and third in the Inter-State Contest at Southwestern College, at Winfield. . As was the case with both the Boy 's and Girl 's Quartets, their work showed unusual excellence m voice blending. All members of the Mixed Quartet also belong to the Senior Class and their going will leave a vacancy In the Music Department which will be hard to Fill. BOYS ' QUARTET DAVID WHEELER, WILLIS TRUSLER, WILLARD TRUSLER, HAROLD HAUSER The Boys' Quartet, which is composed of four of Marion High's most outstanding Senior boys, is an organization which has brought to M. H. S. as much or more honor than any other single group in school. . In the County Music Contest, the one decision in which the judges were entirely consistent in their agreement was first place, given to the Marion Boys' Quartet. ' In the Inter-state Contest at Winfield, where this group contested against schools many times their size, they were again given first place. To complete the season they carried off the First place cup at State Contest at Emporia. GIRLS ' QUARTET LAURAINE MATLOCK, MABEL RAY, LOUISE WILLIAMSON, EsTI-IER BOWLBY The Girls' Quartet was organized early in the school year and has proved one of the most POP1-llar groups in the school. - One of the outstanding features of their work was the complete harmony with which their voices blended. This was especially outstanding in their interpretation of the County Music Contest number with which they placed second. a Page 46 gylajwgrnloy STATE MUSIC CONTEST On April 27, the Boys' Quartet and Mixed Quartet left for Emporia where they entered the State Music Contest in their respective events. The Boys, Quartet which placed first, competed with some of the best high school quartets in the state. The cup awarded was the third trophy received for first place in contests, the quartet having placed First in the County Music Contest, the Inter-State Contest at Southwestern College and in the State Con- test. Marion High was also represented by the Mixed Quartet, which placed second, and three of the group entered the solo events. As this was the annual All-State Contest, the splendid record made by this representative group is worthy of the highest recognition, and not only the student body but the citizens of Marion are indeed proud of these people. 'CTHE BO'SN'S BRIDE What was undoubtedly one of the most outstanding musical and dramatic events of the year was produced when the Glee Club, presented the Operetta, ' 'The Bo'sn's Bride .
