Williams I Adil Nil lllN lllS'llFlQ1AMlilIi1IDN Eight years have elapsed since Mr. Lynn A. Parr became superintendent of the Marshfield public schools. After having received his B. S. degree from the University of Oregon, he taught science at Lincoln High School, Portland, was principal of the high school at Elma, Washington, and superintendent of the Coquille schools, accepting his position with the Marshfield public schools in l928. Besides being superintendent he is a member of the Board of Control of the Oregon State High School Athletic Association, which regulates high school athletic affairs of Oregon. , Mr. O. L. Williams, the principal of Marshfield High School, has been filling his office in a competent manner during the past four years. His sound interest and helpful advice have been of great value to us all. After receiving his BS. degree from University of Oregon, he came to Marshfield and taught at Central School where he organized the seventh and eighth grades. ln i923 upon the completion of Harding School he became principal of that school, holding the office until i932 when he took up his present position.

Although we do not hear much of the board, we can readily see and appre- ciate its accomplishments. lt is responsible for the making of the budget, the election of teachers, the upkeep, improvements, and additions to the school property, and other items, which the average student takes as a mat- ter ofcourse, little realizing the time spent in planning and legislating them. The present members of the board are Mr. L. A. Liljeqvist, chairman Mrs. Walter Chiene, Mr. George C. Huggins, Dr. H. D. Wilson, and Mr. Ear- nest Harrington, all of whom are prominently engaged in civic and educa- tional affairs. Mr. L. A. Parr, superintendent of Marshfield public schools serves as a loyal clerk for the board.

The class of '36 did the unusual at the beginning of their last year in high school by electing the same people to office as the sophomore year- namely, Evan Davies, president, Charles Feller, vice-president, Lucille Lee, secretary, Dorothy Knox, treasurer. The senior class voiced their appreciation of their junior adviser, Mrs. Peck, by asking her to be their senior adviser. The school activities of the past year found the senior class well repre- sented. When the call for football prospects is issued next fall, it will find many of this year's outstanding players have been lost by graduation. The school's successful basketball team attracted several worthy representatives from the senior class. Besides performing the usual activitiesof the seniors in regards to school life, this year's senior class has shown considerable originality in assemblies and scholastic performances. Cappy Ricks, well known to many people, was chosen as the annual senior play. lt was presented by the senior class to an enthusiastic audience. The play, although one that is difficult to give, was recognized as being pre- sented very satisfactorily. One of the most looked-forward-to events of the year, the Senior Ball, was marked this term as most outstanding. New and unique ideas which were given trial proved themselves successful, adding background to the frilly for- mals and dark suits. All in all we thought it the best of Senior Balls.

S. was beginning to settle down into the routine of school life and to the work of their intellectual pursuits, there came into the high school a sturdy group of freshman, bringing with them many versatile abilities, both intellectual and athletic. When only sophomores we showed our ability by the representation of not only a goodly number of athletes in our major sports, but also in assem- blies, plays, and clubs. And now as our junior year is over, we look back and see how the school has benefited by our presence. At the beginning of the year in a hotly contested election we chose Lloyd Bus Brown to head our class as president, Betty Quist as vice-president, and Carolyn Wolcott as secretary-treasurer. Mr. Bruce Martin, then new to the school, was elected adviser to help keep the affairs of the class on a steady course. Contrary to common belief, Black Friday the Thirteenth is not an un- lucky day, for on Friday, December l3, l935, the junior class presented their annual class play. Again on Friday, March 13, I936, the juniors presented their dramatic talents in a short assembly. On April 30 came the Junior-Senior Banquet, at which we juniors were proud to entertain the class of '36, Committee chairmen were: Sam Peck, general chairman, decoration, Helen McQuiston, programs, Beth Williams, invitations, Carolyn Wolcott, menu, Lucille Matson, service, Pat Johnson, construction, Howard Mackay, clean-up, Bill Ring, and entertainment, Betty Quist. Toastmaster for the evening was Bob Ferris. Now the school year is over, and we pass into the senior class, whose tra- ditions we hope to uphold as well as have other M. H. S. classes.

H. S.-from whose main mast flaunts the traditional purple and gold pennant, the sophomore class of l935 writes: We, the sophomore class of l936, have been guided throughout the year by Sherwood Jennings, president, Leon Mineau, vice-president, Bette Knox, secretary, Dan Puckett, sgt.-at-arms, and Miss Eulalia Titus, class adviser. By hard work and the guidance of those mentioned above we have won outstanding places in the school's organizations and activities, in scholarship, and in sports-including football, basketball, and track. The evening of Friday, April 3, was a gala night, for then, according to an old tradition, we held the annual sophomore party in the transformed au- ditorium of the High School. As has been the custom of the sophomore class in the past, on the spring morning of May l4 we presented an assembly to provide entertain- ment for the students and faculty. ln this assembly we proved ourselves not only entertainers and actors, but also successful producers and directors. As we leave and return next fall to assume the title of juniors, we hope the present freshman class shall take the oars in hand, and when another voyage is over, they will have learned to obey their upper classmen.

After several days, during which vari- ous initiations took place, these freshmen began to feel more at home in their new home. Soon after school began, the seniors held a little party for the fresh- men. Several games were played such as riding the barrel, walking electri- field wire, and boxing blindfolder. However, all the boys, frosh included, had a fine time and proved to be good sports. The freshmen boys also, as a part of their initiation, had to work at the athletic field to get it into shape for football season. The Class of '39 held its first meeting in the fall and elected officers for the year. At this meeting Boyd Thomas was chosen president, Audrey Quist, vice-president, Dorothy Meyers, secretary, and the position of sergeant-at- arms was fiilled by Charles Crittendon. The freshmen were well represented in various school sports. Football season saw them being knocked around by the school football heroes. The call for basketball was also answered, and between fifteen and twenty freshmen made the B-squad. Several boys in both these lines of sport show much promise. The girls were not to be outdone by the boys. Though there were no sports in which they could compete, they turned to other activities. A large number tried out for and made the talented girls' organization of Trianon. A much larger group joined the Girls' League. The glee club also received a number of vocal aspirants, green but undaunted. At the beginning of the second semester, two of our officers became sophomores, so it was necessary to hold another class election. At this time Bob Chiene was chosen president and Ivan Ireland vice-president. l22l AHISCA E231 AHISCAN 1936 D IIFIIQIIESIIHIINIIIZAXIN IUIILASS Abel, June Anderson, Bernice Avsco, Mathew Barclay, Henrietta Barton, Jack Beagle, John Bcauchemin, Robert Beaudry, Ernest Bessee, Jack Bloyd, Vivian Bone, Evan Cowen, Harlan Brazeau, Barbara Buckingham, Bernon Busterud, John Caderette, Jack Carlson, James Carlson, Lillian Cavanagh, William Chaney, Harold Chiene, Robert Columbo, Norma Connelly, Richard Cox, William Cunningham, June Day, Leonard Diehl, Alma Doane, John Dobbyn, William Draper, Boyd Dunham, Robert Elwood, Eula Mae Escott, Dorothy Evans, Dan Fordell, John Fourier, Arthur Garrone, Leon Gibney, Ray Giles, Phil Gosney, Melvin Hagen, Alden Hanen, Richard Hansen, Elvira Hansen, Henry Hansen, Jerome Haptonstal, Mary Harris, Norma Haverkamp, Agnes Hawes, Grendoll Heath, Muriel Henderson, Doris Herbison, Wesley Hinds, Herbert Hodgzs, Charlotte I-lo btrt, Kelly Holland, Doris Horton, Leland Ingraham, Frances Ireland, Ivan Johnson, Betty Keever, Dorothy Klemer, Charles Koines, Jack Krieschel, Rosalie Kronsteiner, Cora Larson, Arthur Larson, Dorothy Lee, Grace Liljeberg, Jack Lillie, Russell Lloyd, Laurie McClure, Georgia McCormick, Robert McGeorge, Rosemary McGraw, Thelma Maine, Maxine Maine, Phyllis Mainwaring, Shirley Mason, Marian May, Wendell Meyers, Dorothy Miller, Frank Murphy, Helen Murphy, Juanita Myers, Mary Ellen Nikolsky, Tatiana I241 Nixon, Ethelda Noble, Georgina Noble, John Nordahl, Leslie Normen, Inga Ogden, Lester Olsen, Joyce Olson, Dorothea Osborn, Bernard O'Shea, Patricia Peterson, Betty Lee Peterson, Imogene Peterson, Veva Powell, Marie Prefontaine, Roy Pruett, Mary Louise Quille, George Randall, Darlene Randrup, Russell Rhodes, Adele Robison, Helen Jean Samuelson, Rodney Samuelson, Eugene Sandine, Rudina Sayre, Verne Schafer, Lillian Selander, Hubert Sherman, Ruth Silversten, Robert Smith, Herbert Stack, Richard Stummer, Marguerite Tapio, Eino Taylor, Edward Vaughn, Ellis Waler, Elkin Westmoreland, Robert Whitaker, Irwin Williams, Janet Willson, Norman Wilson, Donava Winblad, Anita Wood, Florence Y x Wweyauzgwfzbwa Jichmhba 1 '3-MAHISCAN 1936 Ericksen McQuiston Flanagan Weber Harrington Hansen Seelig Brown Sllfllll llDllEN1ll lll34IDlIDY O For Hfteen years the student body has been the rnain organization of Marshfield High School and during this time it has run very successfully. The student body officers elected for l935-36 were: Bob Harrington, president, Lester Hansen, vice-president, Sylva Seelig, secretary, Mason Mc- Quiston, treasurer. Student body tickets were purchased for 51.25, enabling the students to attend all home athletic games free and all outside games and schools plays at a discount. Also, the possessor of a ticket has voting privileges, is eligible to hold office, can purchase the annual for a small amount, and can participate in student body activities. The student body sponsored three dances which were on November 27, February 7, and 'March 24. These were enjoyed immensely by all attending with a result of a slight profit for the treasury. The student council, which is the administration body for the student body, was composed of president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, and the four class presidents.

However, the most eventful occasion of the year was the Girls' League Conference held at Coos River. Dorothy Knox, Verda Mollett, Eadith Heath, and Elvera Hansen were the delegates who represented Marshfield. Sylva Seelig was secretary of this year's Conference and Carolyn Wolcott was elected to succeed her for next year's Conference to be held in North Bend. The closing activity of the League was the annual Mother's Tea, held in May, A program was presented and mothers and daughters alike spent an enjoyable afternoon.

Members are chosen at tryouts held at the begin- ning of each semester when a girl must prove her ability in reading, music, or dramatics. Activities of the year consisted of one party and two assemblies. The tiny arms, legs, and bodies scattered about the Hysoerie work room proved to be nothing less than those famous friends-the puppets. By much hard work after school, Hysoerie was able to present the dolls in on assembly depicting the adventures of Green Nose. Miss Stephens, adviser, introduced the pup- petry to M. H. S.

It is thought, as this goes to press, that this year the con- testrnay be caHed off In former years, early in May, this examination was given to certain out- standing students of chemistry in the competing high schools. Under the able tutelage of Mr. Queen we have succeeded in ranking no lower than fourth in the state out of the five times we have participated. ln 1932 our school received first honors, and the last year we tied for second place with Grants Pass, only losing first place to Hood River by two points. Although not much is seen and heard about the chemistry team during the year, it is actually one of the most difficult activities in high school, and the members of the team deserve great credit for the perseverance and zeal with which they have devoted themselves to the vast amount of extra work which this activity entails. The group of students who composed this year's team, and from whom five were to be chosen later in the year to take the examination were: Evan Davies, Roger Flanagan, Wayne Ericksen, George Gothro, Mary Ann Stack, Tom Norman and Howard Leneve.

On these days, after the heated arguments of ten debates had been deliv- ered, the first place was awarded to Coquille by the critic judge, W. A. Dahl- berg, professor of speech from the University of Oregon. This decision en- titled the Coquille debate team to represent that community in the contest for state championship. This year, except for the county tournament, the system for judging the debates was changed to an entirely different plan from any used before, the reason being that in previous years judges were sometimes hard to procure and also that the judging was sometimes considered unfair. The question which was being debated in all Oregon high schools this year concerned the socialization of medicine, for the purpose of providing medical attention and care for all citizens at state expense from tax funds. In full the question read: Resolved, that the several states should enact' legislation providing for a system of complete medical service available to all citizens at state expense. When the first meeting for debate tryouts was called last December, ten speakers turned out. From these the following were chosen to represent our school: affirmative, Howard Perttula and Betty Spindler, negative, Helen Juza and Betty Enokson, alternates, Tom McKelvie and Russell Jones.

Approximately 55 hopeful candidates, of various sizes and degrees of experience, turned out for conditioning exercises. Of these about three teams tinished the season. From last year's squad Kolen, two year veteran, Smith, Brendle, White, Ring, Schnick, and Ferris, one-stripers, as well as some promising non-lettermen, greeted Coach Osborn as he set out to build a winning combination. As a start toward a successful season, the squad elected Warren Kolen captain, and he proved a fine leader and a real inspiration to his less experienced team-mates. For their achievements on the gridiron, the following men were awarded letters: Captain Warren Kolen, third, Bill Ring, White, Ferris, and Brendle, second, and Willson, Hillstrom, Sherrill, Mathews, G. Ring, Knutson, Juntunen, Cline, Davies, Johannesen, and Peterson, first. Ensley May received the manager's award. Also Warren Kolen, Wally White, and Oric Johan- nesen were placed on all-county teams, while Wally White received the 20-30 Club cup for the outstanding Marshfield player of 1935. Of the above lettermen, Ring, Ferris, Brendle, Willson, Sherrill, Juntunen, Cline, and Peterson will return, as well as Wann, Chamberlain, Briggs, lngman, Chiene, and Hansen, who will probably see much action.

Most years the Marshfield squad has been tops in the B squad competi- tion. But even more important and enviable than their won game ledger is the number of fine basketball players the B squad has developed for A squad competition. Both this year's and last year's champion teams were largely composed of ex-B squaders, and it is safe to say that the Pirate Varsities would not have been so successful without this B squad developed material. ln this tradition the 1936 Baby Pirates were up to standard. In the first place, they had a successful season as for as games went, winning four and losing four against tough competition. More important, a number of lower- classmen and juniors were developed who should be mainstays in the A squad next season and in years to come. Of these men, Smith, Perin, Mineau, Cline, Chiene, and McFadden will probably scintillate for the A squad next year. Also a number of promising men will remain on the B squad for further sea- soning and experience. The record of games played is as follows: Won from Bandon, IO-29, Reedsport, 25-34, Bandon, 22-44, Coquille, l2-33. Lost to Myrtle Point, 3l-13, North Bend, 22-19, Myrtle Point, 27-24, North Bend, l7-l6.

In the tournament the Pirates lost to Roseburg in the finals, and so did not go to the state meet in Salem. ln recognition of their basketball achievements seven men-Bill Ring, Rackleff, Juntunen, Johannesen, White, Sommers, and Hansen-received basketball letters. Of these seven men Ring, Sommers, and Hansen will re- turn next year. The following is a game-by-game review of this year's basketball season: CONFERENCE GAMES Myrtle Point 38, M. H. S. 39. The Pirates opened their conference basket- ball season against Myrtle Point on the Bobcats' home floor. ln the first two periods the Pirates set the pace, leading 22-I3 at the half. The Bobcats ral- lied in the second half and tied the score at the end of the game. Juntunen's basket in the overtime period gave the Pirates a 39-38 victory. Bandon 25, M. H.S. 38. ln their opening game on their home floor, the Pirate men played good ball, and downed Bandon after a stiff battle. The Pirate men led l7- ll at half-time and increased their lead in the last quarters. North Bend 20, M. H. S. 28. The Pirate men had a stiff battle before they downed North Bend in their first encounter. The game was nip and tuck all the way with Marshfield leading lO-8 at the half. ln the last few min- i431 MAHISCAN I936 utes the Pirates shot enough longs over the Bulldog zone defense to eke out a 28-20 victory. Roseburg 28, M. H. S. 33. After their hardest battle of the year, Marsh- field downed the flashy Roseburg Indians on their home court. After starting Est, the Pirates trailed, and the half-time scored favored Roseburg 19-15. Still behind with three minutes to go the Pirate men sank a field goal to take the game 33-28. Myrtle Point 14, M. H. S. 23. The second encounter between Pirate and Bobcat was exciting enough, but marred by wild passing and shooting. Neither team played its best brand of ball, but Marshfield was not quite so wild as Myrtle Point and led at the half 7-5, and 23-14 at the game's end. Bandon 30, M. H. S. 31. On their home floor the scrappy Tigers proved a much stronger opponent, and pushed the Pirates all the way. In fact they led 16-15 at the half. However, in the second half the Marshfield team's superior speed and height gave them the edge and a 31-30 victory. North Bend 22, M. H. S. 23. After a nip-and-tuck battle the whole way, Marshfield defeated North Bend for the second time. The Pirates led I0-8 at the half but were trailing in the second half with three minutes to go. A strong rally netted the Marshfield men 8 points and gave them the vic- tory 23-22. Roseburg 22, M. H. S. 20. After a relentless battle all the way, the Pirates dropped their first game of the year to a conference opponent. The speedy Indian team, much improved, played good ball all the way and took the lead over the Marshfield men. Both teams played good ball, but the Indians earned their 22-20 victory. Coquille 9, M. H. S. 20. Hampered by the small floor space, the Pirate quintet defeated Coquille 20-9 on the Red Devil court. The game was a slow, low-scoring affair with both teams missing shots and passes. Coquille 13, M. H. S. 38. In their return game at home, the Pirate re- serves trampled Coquille under by a 38-13 score. The Pirates led all the way and by their more accurate shooting controlled the play throughout. DISTRICT TOURNAMENT GAMES Marshfield met unexpectedly stiff opposition from Myrtle Point, their first tournament opponent, and squeezed out with a two point win, only after a tough struggle. The Pirates obviously did not play their best ball, but a beautiful howitzer by B. Ring at the last moment gave them a 15-13 win, and entered them in the finals against Roseburg. In the finals against Roseburg the Pirate men played as good ball as they played all season but went down to defeat before the Indians by a heart- breaking two points. At the half the Pirates were outplaying Roseburg and held a 15-8 lead, but in the second period the Braves started a rally which Marshfield couldn't meet and won the game and tournament' 22-20. T441 -'li-MAHISCAN 1936 rlll'llQ125MUllK O With the coming of spring, and good weather, Marshfield athletes' thoughts always turn to track, the great spring sport. Efforts were somewhat hampered by the poor condition of the Golden Field track early in the season, but Coach Osborn had his men in good shape for the county track meet, May 9. Practically the same squad that last year lost the county meet by V2 point returned this year. The squad was well-rounded, with winners and place winners in every event. The Pirate squad was strong in all events, Particularly in the weights, with Bob Hillstrom, two-year letterman in the discus, and Wallace White, shotput winner last year, entering their last season of competition. The dashes were also strong events for the Pirates. Bus Brown, Edwin Burton, and in a pinch Bob Ferris and Oric Johannesen can match speed with the best in the lOO and 220-yard dashes. Ed Burton also ran the 440-yard dash. The mile and half-mile was ably taken care of by Russell Jones and Keith Custer, lettermen. The polt vault should have been a sure point-winner with Oric Johanriesen and Bus Brown, lettermen, competing. ln the high and broad jumps these two men and Bob Chiene, a star jumper in iunior high, were the strong competitors. Although the Pirates have the best hurdles, they don't hold any of the records, but Bob Ferris, who won his letter over the sticks last year, and Dean Cline, represented Marshfield this year in both 220-yard low hurdles and llO-yard high hurdles. l45l ,A1Rryular Lion Tamer ,I Coujrlc of Exrcutilvex Good Morning, Tmfher For lfll' Honor of lhe nllfia Motor cliff ' ,fl Thr Villngr Hl!lfk.f77lif,l.1' fllayf Poor Yorirk.
