JAMES QUINN T MARGARET ATWOOD King I C Queen G A E R R N I V , A L On Friday evening, November 13, the Purdy gymnasium took on the carnival air. Booths, side-shows, games, and stunts provided fun and entertainment for all. The rea- son for this gala occasion was to insure the publication of the 1937 TIGER without out- side solicitation. Among the high-lights of the evening were the motion picture of Ourselves pre- sented by the Seniors, the Sophomores' delightful German Garden, the Juniors' riotous side-show, Readin', Writin,, and Rhythm, and the Freshmen's unique floor show. The grand finale of the evening was the confetti dance. The climax of the carnival was the crowning of the king, James Quinn, and the queen, Margaret Atwood. Three trumpeters announced the royal entrance. Tiny flower girls crowned the queen 'and presented her with the royal bouquet. A small gentleman placed the boutonniere in the king's lapel. This was the second carnival in the history of McKinley High School and was as successful as any future carnival can be. Only the combined efforts of the entire faculty with the aid of the students could have accomplished so much. Due appreciation is expressed to them for making the TIGER a possibility. 46

ar ii 1 ,-as ,Av-v TOP ROW--H. Gripentrog, S. Finueane, S. Lewis, D. Hoerl. FIRST ROW-R. Schuctte, I. Lindow. Miss Bachhuber, E. Olson, R. Luedtke N The debate season was a very successful one. Although the team was not able to go on to the state tournament, it, nevertheless, topped last year's record. Then, too, our .. ,, - V - - never-to-be-forgotten fire proved quite a handicap when it burned all the newly arrived l debate material, compelling the try-outs to be postponed till Christmas. l The team chosen to represent Marshfield beat last year's record because it was so 1 ably assisted by two veterans from last year, who, remarkably, had escaped the dangers 1 of vacation and were back again when school started. For, though ancient in experience, 1 they were still too young to graduate. These veterans, to satisfy your curiosity, were l Donald Hoerl and Herbert Gripentrog. When comparing them with the remainder of , the team, the rest were, ou mi ht sa , 'ust amachoors. Individuall , however, the W - Y u 8 Y l A A I Y team came throu h with fl in colors, and all did 'ustice to their uidin lodestar, Miss D B hh b g Y g 1 g S ac u er. E For . . . . . your benefit and knowledge, the speakers will be listed in the order in which B they spoke. On the affirmative team were Ramona Lucdtke, Ruby Schuette, and Herbert Gripentrogg on the negative were Inez Lindow, Donald Hoerl, and Steve Lewis. Alter- A nates were Ellen Olson and Shirley Finucane. T Port Edwards and Chippewa Falls came to Marshfield for non-decision debates. Later our teams made trips to Medford and Chippewa Falls for other practice debates. Because E Chippewa Falls had previously opposed the Marshheld team, our team met Bloomer there instead. The season was brought to a close February 13, at the tournament at Stevens Point. There the team placed over eleven other teams and by a few points narrowly missed going on to the state tournament. The afhrmative team came through with a loss and a victory winning over Park Falls and losing to Merrill. The negative team did likewise, losing to Wittenberg and winning over Wisconsin Rapids. Exactly half of the team will graduate this year leaving Ruby Schuette, Ramona Luedtke, and Donald Hoerl to try their hands at being veterans next year. 48
