P3-Y 112,42-i1QJCD Vikings of old plowed the Waves guided by the stars, and rn a d e their Way across the s t o r rn y seas a n d through the sunny channels to the lands of Wealth and adventure-Wealth not in gold and riches but in opportuni- ties. Such a voyage is ours as We jour- ney through high school. We encoun- ter rocky shoals and threatening dan- gers but are guided into the open, and at last We have arrived at that land be- yond the horizon. The splendid spirit of the Vikings, Whether on the field of competition or in the class room has been such, that all of us, Who have contributed our part in making the Viking spirit what it has been, can be justly proud. To this spirit, which really lives and will live forever in the hearts of all true Vik- ings, We dedicate this Parsonian. 'V-1-45 .NWN 4 'N I . 's 'N Our Loyalty V The ability of a group of students of adolescent age to undertake the work of workers of a more mature age and to make of the work a success deserves the consideration of even the loftiest. When the Senior Class needed some- thing done,-the seniors did it. When something was needed, when something was to be made a success-the Seniors of '35 did it. Such a motive must have some rea- son back of it other than the shown motive. Loyalty! The Vikings stand for loyalty. As the ancient Vikings of old, so are the modern Vikings. They are loyal to tra- dition, loyal to principle, loyal to super- iors, loyal to each other. Then there is loyalty to athletics, tl1e determining factor controlling the success of any athletic organization. For these principles of loyalty stands the Viking emblem, the insignia of the Class of ,35. -1-1-1Ef,xfnr4.a1x1C3cf' 542 Our Ne Sticker Y H H 3? Vikings Loyalty to the Q69 ARJQNnAN if .

LEADERSHIP RESOURCEFULNESS HARDINESS COURAGE VIKINGS-IN-DEED Tl-IE qi5g 5:?xflr4llxlC5JN HRW The first chapter of the year- book deals chiefly with the lead- ership which has been due in large part to success or failure of the students who this year pass from this school into other schools, new fields, or perhaps into other lines. The guiding hands of the leaders have not fal- tered when the going was rough. The good ship Viking came safe- ly through into the harbor, as do all ships steered by good cap- tains. S Leadershzp In the few paragraphs to fol- low the Senior Class wishes to recognize the endeavors of these leaders in their effort to give staggering youth a foothold on life. BOARD OF EDUCATION The Board of Education is composed of six business men of Parsons, who have been acting in that capacityi for quite a number of years. They act in all matters pertaining to the school, including planning of the buildings. After much consid- eration, the school board decided that the six-four-four plan was good for the school and this will go into effect next year. They have done noteworthy work in this line in planning the new McKinley School Building. They also did most of the planning for the High School and Junior College. The members of the School Board are: Mr. VVilliam Cunningham-President, Mr. W. L. Mosher-Vice-President, Mr. Edwin N. Hunter, Mr. Charles Gribben, Mr. Max D. Chase, and Mr. VVade Risser. The Clerk is Mr. VV. S. Phillips and the Treasurer is Mr. W. C. Crawford. Although three of the six members are up for election every two years, they have done such good work in office that they are seldom opposed. 'V+-45 figiaixflmumef inllvfx os, E. F. FARNER REES H. HUGHES Principal of Senior High School Superintendent of Schools ADMINISTRATION MR. FARNER MR. HUGHES Mr. E. F. Farner, principal of the high school and junior college., is one of the best leaders that could be found in all the country to guide young people through the difficult five years of high school and junior college. His patient guidance and kind consideration have made him loved by allr-stu- dent, teachers, and parents alike. He has helped to make the feel- ing of pulling together that is evident in high school, and thus has made himself invaluable to the Parsons school system. Serving in the capacity as Superintendent of S c h o 0 l s for eleven years, Mr. Rees H. Hughes h a s become a familiar figure among the students. His genial companionship and advice have brought about the high esteem which is held for him. Mr. Hugh- es will never be forgotten by the ones who are closely associated with him. He is always one of usf, Without sufficient leadership no worthy enterprise can succeed smoothly. The combined cooperation of Mr. Hughes, Mr. Farner, the Faculty, and the School Board has been the guiding hand that has cruised the Class of '35 through the most critical period of history, each doing his part to make the work less difficult for the, other. l3,4AI'QefCDlXll,QXlXI Q.

Those patient sufferers-ourj teachers-deserve all kind of credit as each high school senior walks across the stage and receives his Sheepskin, Many hours and much thought have gone into making the five years in the higher units profit- able and enjoyable. A The teachers have teachers meetings about every two weeks, where problems of interest are discussed. Books have been reviewed, and reports have been made. Teaching isn't all these teachers can do. Several of them are good farmers, some are intensely interested in art, and others have very beautiful gardens.

The Clubs and the school ac- tivities are helping to build an abundance of right think- ing, experience in leader- ship, a resourcefulness of clean living so that in later life a richness of knowledge and a skill of meeting life's gs Resourcefulness difficulties and problems will be prevalent in the every day life of all stu- dents.

The president of the Student Council is also the chairman of the student body. The duties of the Student Council are similar to that of any executive commit- tee. The members represent the students in conferences with the principal, teach- ers, and deans. They are the connecting link between the student body and the faculty. ' - The Student Council for the school year 1934 and 1f935 is composed of the following members: Bill Westhoff-president, Charles Pringle-vice-president, Lucille Miller-secretary, Marian Meador, Jay Reynolds, Betty Lou McGinty, Dean lfVells, Miss Leeta Scott, sponsor. GIRL RESERVES The Girl Reserve Club for the year 1934 and 1935 has steadily built a spiritual and social organization, sturdy and everlasting, in keeping with the club theme of the year which is Stones. The club, under the sponsorship of Miss Nora Smith and with the help of Mrs. R. P. Roach, former Y.W.C.A. president, has held many interesting meetings, both social and educational. The study of stones this year has revealed many interesting facts concerning such stones as the Easter stone, corner- stone, keystone, milestone, stepping stone, and many others. Among the outstand- ing social events of the year were the Girl Reserve and the Hi-Y Valentine Party, the Girl Reserve Cabinet Tea, and the Cabinet Waffle Breakfast. The club this year is under the able leadership of Lucile Miller, president. Other officers of the club ,include Marian Hughes, vice president, Virginia King, secretary, and Helen Makemson, treasurer. The committee chairmen are as follows: Pauline Baity, program, Wilma Thompson, social, Mintie Ann Beasley, worship, Joy Linn, publicity, Virginia Davies, service, Marian Hughes, membership, Ber- niece Wilson, music, and, Elaine Davis, dramatics. The club this year is composed of thirty-nine members. HI-Y The Hi-Y Club is one of the major organizations of the school. The Club motto is: To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. During the past year the Parsonsi Hi-Y proved to be not only an outstanding club in Parsons but in Southeast Kansas. The S.E.K. Hi-Y Conference was held here December 1-11, 15, 16. Boys numbering approximately two hundred were here, and the local boys displayed their ability as hosts in offering hospitality to the dele- gates. This resulted in a very successful conference. The Hi-Y boys and their dates enjoyed a hayrack ride as one of the social events. ' ' The officers of' the club: Ralph Rust, president, Gayle Rodgers, vice presi- dent: Robert Hackney, secretary, Dale Gribben, treasurer. The committee chair- men are as follows: Program, John White, Bible Study, Donald Taylor, Music, Charles Nice, Social Service, Elwood Beeson, World Brotherhood, Charles Long, Publicity, Charles VVeesner. The sponsor of the club is Mr. Victor Hall. N936 1:2A2.lQfCIDNl'AsN l l EUREKA CLUB CABINET Sarah Louise Delay, Margaret Belle King, Nora E. Sniitli-sponsor, Enid Palmer, Betty Lou Shears.

'Tr-4Ef:,51,xflr41rx1Gef nldwl EUREKAS CLUB The largestu and perhaps most popular club of the Parsons High School is the Eurekas Club which is composed of every girl in the school. The club is under the- sponsorship of Miss Nora Smith. Meetings have consisted chiefly of speakers and programs given by-the girls. The most outstanding program of the year and one in which the girls took great interest was a program given for their mothers. The motto of the Eurekas Club ist Aim high and never lose sight of the' goal. The club helped the girls to solve some of their problems. The officers of the club are: Betty Lou Shears, presidentg Margaret Belle King, vice presidentg Sara Louise DeLay, secretaryg Enid Palmer, treasurer. DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club met this year every Wednesday morning under the direc- tion of Miss Margaret Smith. The president this year was Marian Hughes. The other officers consisted of vice-president, Marjorie Hoffmang secretary, Francis Campbellg treasurer, Bill Westhoff. Membership to the club was limited to those who passed the censor of the club, which consisted of all members. The candidates were to give short selections of readings or speeches, which were judged by the members. Of the ones who tried, about twenty were admitted. Some of the interesting programs this year consisted of talks by Miss Harriet Taylor, a Review of Green Pastures by Philip Lyrer, and very interesting readings by junior college students. The program of the club this year, as conducted, was very helpful to members of the club in connection with their dramatics. G. A. A. The Girls' Athletic Association of the Parsons High School has done much to promote athletics among the girls. The organization is sponsored by Miss Theilen, athletic instructor. The meetings during the year were spent in playing basketball, volleyball, hockey and in presenting miscellaneous programs. On October 13, a Play Day was held at Pittsburg and a number of delegates from Parsons attended. The officers and captains for the club are as follows: Elizabeth Howey, presi- dent, Dazey Horn, vice presidentg Inez Vandyne, secretaryg Elizabeth McGinnis, treasurer, Dorothy Locke, basketball captaing Helen Hall, baseball captaing Anna Lee Reasor, clogging captain, Lorraine Fonts, volleyball captaing Marguerite Startz, hiking, Sara Louise Delay, tennis captain.

PRESS CLUB One of the most recent organizations formed in the High School is the Press Club composed of the staff and cub classes of journalism. This club for the ,year 1934 and 1935 is composed of approximately thirty members and is under the able leadership of Charles Wveesner, president. Two outstanding speakers for the club were William Allen White of Emporia, who was here in the spring, and Mr. Donald Foster of Shawnee, Oklahoma. Mr. Foster, now secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Shawnee, Oklahoma, was formerly an editor of a newspaper there. He was a war correspondent and spoke to the club of his experiences. His address was very interesting. The club has held few meetings during the past year but is rapidly developing into one of the foremost clubs in the school. The social activities for the past year included a party and a luncheon in the school cafeteria. Mr. William. Moore, teacher of journalism, sponsors the club. 'Vu-45 . .ndubl THE SENIOR REVUE The annual Senior Review, which was presented by the Senior Class on Febru- ary the 10th in tl1e high school auditorium, went over with a 'ibangfi Theorigi- nality of the class was certainly not disputed by anyone when this unique affair was given. Carrying out the nursery-rhyme scheme throughout the Revue, Ellen Morton, wrote the entire script for the performance which was initiated by Lucille Daniels. YVhen the curtains parted, a large pie was seen in one corner of the stage. Little Jack Horner, played by Bob Hackney, came out in, his little short pants and white shirt and proceeded to sniff around. Suddenly the pie burst open and instead of the traditional blackbirds coming forth, out popped an orchestra that provided music throughout the performance. In this startling way the Senior Revue began, and it continued to hold the interest of the audience. Earl Porter as Old King Cole and Virginia O'Connor as Queenie, his wife, gave the crowd many a laugh with their worries and troubles that arose from having so many unloyal subjects in their kingdom. The crooked man QLouis Palmerj was trying to force Little Bo Peep into a marriage with him, and this was much against her will. A very amus- ing trio was sung by these two and the Court Jester QFred Mundisj--that is, they dramatized the much-sung song, No, No, a Thousand Times No. Tom Tom, the piper's son, actually appeared on the stage with a live stolen pig and was promptly captured by soldiers of the guard. Ralph Rust as Tom pre- sented a very queer looking spectacle in his red and yellow outfit and certainly sur- prised everyone by not forgetting his lines which consisted of Hi, Filbertf' Red Riding Hood fBerniece Wilsonj appeared on the stage, shivering beneath her little cape, for she, was extremely afraid of the Big Bad Wolf fBill Boydj. She was so nervous that she displayed it to the audience by. singing with the King and Queen, Got the Jitters, Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary was very kind instead of contrary for once by consenting to play her accordion in order to refresh the Queen's wilted flowers. Marj orie Hoffman as Mary found that the only piece that would revive them was the old song? Stand Up, Stand UP. The Girls' Follies, which is included in the program every year was a group of the king's soldiers dressed in ritzy uniforms. Their act added a professional spirit to the program as it was a difficult soldier dance. The Boys' Follies, also an annual feature, was a chorus of Little Miss Muffets, dressed in short pink dresses and blue sunbonnets. Tommy Russell was the Miss Muffet, who did a solo dance with the Spider CMarion Ellisj. Anita Warden as the Old Woman in the Shoe was certainly kept busy with her many children, and the Three Blind Mice fMary Markham, Margaret King, and Dorothy Knauerj had a pitiful and blood-curdling tale to tell of a mean old farmer woman. Phillip Lyrer, representing Simple Simon, , 1 an 93-f +:1,AtzQfC3rx11,A.N made the audience gasp with his terrific tongue twisters which he repeatedly said with remarkable swiftness. Of course Old King Cole had his fiddlers to play a duet to calm his ruffled nerves, and the fiddlers who attempted to do this were Frances Campbell and Maurice Thomas. Tl1e three pigs who sang' the famous song, Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf, were Bill Westhoff, Gayle Rodgers, and Evert Beaty. The tumblers who executed such marvelous feats were Marvin Rogan, Louis Frizzell, and Vernon Moore. Georgie Porgie was portrayed by George Rouch, and he did a very fine per- formance of kissing the girls. In fact, he displayed an experience in his acting wl1icl1 very few other boys of his age have. The crowning event of the evening was the overthrowing of the old king and queen, and the crowning of the king and queen of hearts who were none other than Bill Westhoff and Betty Risser. They had been elected by the student body as the most popular boy and girl. Much of the credit for the success of the Revue goes to the class sponsors, Miss Mary Scott and Mr. Allen Piattg to Frances Campbell, Virginia Decker, and Lucille Daniels, who directed the boys' and the girls' choruses, and to Mary Markham, general director of the entire Revue. BAND The Band of the Parsons High School for the year of 19344 and 1935 has again been a huge success towards making the. Parsons schools more widely known. The band this year, with the Drum Corp, attended the American Royal Livestock Show at Kansas City. They also furnished music at the football and basketball games which was greatly appreciated. Officers who helped to make this organization a success were Everet Beaty, president, Elaine Davis, vice president, Bob Hackney, secretary, Woodrow Burnett, business manager, Gayle Rodgers, assistant conductor, Anita Warden, drum majorg and Professor Charles S. McCray, the conductor. Members of the Band include: Gayle Rodgers, J. E. Comer, Elaine Davis, Paul Lonnecker, Byron Blackburn, Roy Vance, LaVerne Scheidts, Charles Long, Robert Kimball, Earl Thompson, Karl Jacobs, LaVeta Hinthorn, Jess Berry, John Armstrong, Donald Taylor, Mary Jean Edwards, Dale Hale, Woodrow Burnett, Charles Nice, Lowell Long, Hazel Orr, Everet Beaty, Merill Roller, Eunice Schmoll, Lorraine Orr, William Laande, Jack Medaris, Paul Rust, Bob Wells, Paul O'Con- nor, Alberta Roberts, Virginia Lane, Gene Williams, Sara Louise DeLay, Richard McConnell, Roger North, Imogene Overton, Elmer Columbia, Joe Field, Jacl-L Mur- phy, Bob Hackney, Ralph Rust. DRUM CORP The Parsons High School Drum Corp along with the Band makes one of the most striking organizations in this part of the country. The Drum Corp this year attended Kansas Day at the American Royal Live- stock Show in Kansas City and proved., to be quite an advertisement for the city of Parsons. Anita Warden is drum major for the organization. She has proved to be one of the finest the school has ever had. This is Anita's last year. The members of the organization are: Marie Caldwell, Suelee Galvin, Betty Risser, Mary Martha Russell, Mary Markham, Getella DeJarnette, Virginia King, Jean Gilbert, LaVon, Massie, Enid Palmer, Dorothy Jean Knauer, Virginia O'Con- nor. Thelma McKinley, Phyllis Drenner, Mary Catherine Coons, Anna Marie Hau- bold, Alene Sharshall, Mary Beth Weir, Shirley Jane Ruble, Marie LeVan, Mary Beth Mann, Mercedes Murry, Florence Marie Columbia, Margaret Belle King, Wil- ma Thompson, Betty Lou McGinty, Marjorie Beaty, Frances Campbell, Marian Meador, Dorothy Henry, Marguerite Startz, Eva Lorene Perkins. Professor Charles S. M'cCray is the director for the organization. X of-.elif 'V 1-I E xx: K1 I N G f Y -..f Middx DEBATE CLUB Resolved: That the Federal Government should adopt the policy of equal- izing educational opportunity throughout the nation by means of annual grants to the several states for elementary and secondary education. That was the question used throughout the United States by the various debate clubs. The Parsons High School Debate Team under the supervision of Mr. Donald B. Youel placed high in all debates. The first debate team was composed of Virginia O'Connor and Donald Taylor, and cultivation of the lespedeza crop. The boys also took part in a judging con- posed of Mary Margaret Durand and Charles Wiles, affirmativeg Helen Makem- son and Ed Raschen, negative. These two teams competed with debate teams in nearby cities, namely, Pitts- burg and Coffeyville. The first team also went to Emporia and Arkansas City. On February 8 and 9 the Southeast Kansas High School Debaters met in Par- sons for their annual Southeast Kansas Tournament. Parsons again made an excel- lent showing and upheld the honor of ther school. F. F. A. An organization which the Parsons High School should be proud of is the Future Farmers of America. It has done much to broaden the knowledge of the boys interested in agriculture. The club this year carried out as one of its leading projects the harvesting and cultivation of the lespedeza crop. The boys also took part,in a judging con- test for this district of Southeast Kansas. Another unusual and interesting thing that the F. F. A. Club of the high school did was to sponsor a district Officers Training School for the F. F. A. Clubs of Southeast Kansas. This was new and much w' s accomplished. Officers in this important educational clu are: Andy Hataway, presidentg Charles Baty, vice presidentg Charles Little, ecretaryg Jim Hataway, treasurerg LaVerne Price, reporter. The club is under th sponsorship of Mr. Jewett, teacher of agriculture.

We can, look back on our worki and say to you From the depths of our hearts without doubt Our record is a good oneg we leave it to you! We shall, perhaps, miss our school days But we must go forward and leave no regrets behind. There is much for us to do in many different ways. The cogs of progress must. stay in line And we must gog weire all in that, line. VVe have had the faculty's leadership and cooperation In all things we have attempted to do, And we wish to express to them our appreciation Which is more than rightly due. We know that they will do the same for you. The school and its work have been our pride. Hard we've tried to raise its standards high. Never let it be said, The spirit of the graduating class of' '35 has died. VVe hope that you will to greater heights onward' fly Up above all previous graduates of Parsons High.

'1-s-4Ee.ggaxfnr4n1x1C5f This graduating class, the largest in the history of our school is famed for a hardi- ness which its members have displayed throughout their high school careers. They have proved that our class is one that can take hard knocks and defeat and come up smiling, ready for the next encounter Whatever it might be. Here's to the class of '35 and may they prove themselves as cap- able in facing difficulties in the future as they have in their school life. Q! Hardiness P. B. WITT HEALEN FERGUSSON RALPH M.

The play, a three act mystery comedy, As the Clock Strikesf, by' Elizabeth Armstrong, was presented on December 10 to a large, appreciative audience. The plot of the play held the undivided attention of the audience. It dealt with the story of Nick Bolten, who, having had financial reverses, tried to retain his country home by keeping paying guests. Rainy weather pre- vented outdoor sports so the bored guests in order to create some excitement resorted to playing a game to see who could steal Nancy's necklace without her knowing it. Various complications arose including the appearance of a suspicious character, Lucius Dreer. In the meantime the pearls were returned to their proper place, and the mystery was solved. The butler proved to be the mosli successful burglar. The cast: Nick Bolten, Jack Murphy, William, Jay Reynolds, Alex Manchester, Perry Bolander, Nancy Arnold, Enid Palmer, Madge Keating, LaVon Massieg Mrs. Randolph, Elaine Davis, Jim Keating, Charles Gray, Sam Randolph, Elwood Beason, Lucius Dreer, Charles Daugherty. Pro- ducing staff: stage manager, Louis Roterg property manager, Chester Wright, electrician manager, Jim Dooley, wardrobe mistress, Sara Goodsillg carpen- ter, Roy Calkins, prompter, Anna Lee Reasor. House staff: business man- ager, Gerald Gerard, ticket manager, Margaret Howell, advertising manager, Fred Little, program manager, Keitha Trammelg head usher, Zella Dunford. Music was under the direction of Gayle Rodgers. 53-Y i2,AlQf3'IxI1,A,N SOPHOMORE CLASS President ...... ...... D AVID CADMUS Vice President ....... .... E . L.

S. Davis Erie Doyle Evardell Foster FT:9,QI?ef'C3lXII,4belXl SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the early, dawn of a September day in the year of 1931, a band of adven- turers could be. seen wending its way todwards the shores of Higher Educationf, It was the future class of 1935. One group could be seen coming' from the East led by Jack Smart to join a second group coming from the West led by Phil Lyrer. The groups halted, and while resting, the East Junior High presented the play, Has Anyone Seen Jean and the West Junior High presented the play, Ace High. The journey was resumed, but a side trip was taken by West Junior Freshmen to Sweet Springs for a picnic while the Freshmen of East Junior went to Vogels Farm. It was now time to sail away upon the sturdy Viking ship, P, H. Sf' After having viewed each other from afar, the groups united and new friendships were made as the ship sailed into the distance, carrying the stalwart adventurers with her. There were a few squalls as our ship sailed along. Bill Westhoff was chosen to steer our Viking ship on the 'first league of our journey, our Sophomore Year. A comparatively smooth sailing was enjoyed the rest of the year. VVe adventurers, after' a' three months' vacation, were ready to continue our voyage. A new captain was elected, and Phil Lyrer was the one chosen to guide our ship with Fred Mundis, Buster Daharb, and Wesley Frew assisting him. New adventures awaited the passengers. We were now advanced to the rank of Juniors and steered our ship UP. H. Sf, toward the waters of Lake McKinley. Here was held our Junior picnic with swimming, exploring, baseball, pickles, ice cream, all jumbled together in a pleasing mixture. VVe seamen decided to charter our own course and held the first Junior Party. The party was held in: the gallery of the ship, and was enjoyed by all oarsmen. After having such a good time among ourselves, we decided to invite the upper seamen to share one with us. We enter- tained the Senior Class in the main ,part of the ship with a performance by a magi- cian, after which we journeyed down to the galley where Carnival booths and side- shows greeted our eyes. Pink lemonade, ice cream cones, and good ole hot dogs sent all into high spirits. A real entertainment for all passengers and crew was realized in the presenta- tion of the Junior Play, The Whole Town's Talkingf' The fight in the darki' which ended with our modest captain hanging onto the chandelier will be remembered a long time by every seaman. All along the journey the purpose of the trip was not forgotten, and. the seamen of this class proved their ability to study by leading the other classes in scholastic standing. Having had a fine journey we were given time to rest. We were soon back together, eager to travel the last and most import- ant lap of our cruise, our Senior Year. Phil Lyrer, having? proved to be a faithful captain, was re-elected. to steer the ship for our senior year. Assistant steersmen were Bob Hackney, Marian Hughes, and Margaret. Belle King, with Miss Mary Scott and Mr. Allen Piatt to help us! to steer clear of dark and troubled waters. During our journey some able seamen dropped overboard to catch the next ship, others drifted into the business world, and a few entered the Sea of Matrimony. We seafarers turned back a few leagues to our childhood days, and the Old Mother Goose Rhyme favorites appeared in the Senior Revue, which was written by three seamen, Ellen Morton, Lucille Daniels, and Marian Hughes. The crooked man, court-jester, little Bo-Beep, little Miss Muf- fet, and many other characters came to life to sing and dance in the court of Ole King Cole. The climax of the revue. was the crowning' of the King and Queen of the school, Bill Westhoff and Betty Risser. A qw j l-I-1E gifl,X!lliIlX1CEf All upper and lowerclassmen elected seamen to represent them on the Student Council which was the governing body while on the cruise. Bill Westhoff was elected president of the Council, Realizing that the end of our cruise was near, we gave a farewell demonstration of our class talent in the senior play Peter Flies High. A treasure was captured for our class and also the whole Viking ship by our School Re- porter Staff which consisted of, all seniors. They won national recognition for the excellent merits of the paper. Adventures now came very fast, and the good times of Skip Day which was celebrated with an all-day picnic were still being enjoyed when Apron and Overall day appeared on the horizon. The last assembly in High School was given by capable seamen of our class. Land Ahead! The cry was taken up and during our last week on the Viking' ship P, H. S. we began to realize what leaving the ship would mean to us. Upon reaching the shore, we were presented diplomas which signified that we had safely and satisfactorily completed our journey. Our farewells were said amidst firm handshakes, smiles, and a tightness in our throats as we separated, each to go his way knowing that we had just experienced four of the happiest years we should ever have. We shall always cherish tender thoughts of our beloved high school days. -Lucille Miller. P3-f ,4:.r2tfCID.NlA.N SENIOR CLASS PLAY The play given by the Senior Class this year was Peter Flies Highf, The characters were selected by Miss Margaret Smith, who also directed the play, and by Misses Nora Smith, Mary Scott, and Mr. Allen Piatt. The plot is as follows: Peter Turner fell over a stray dog in Miami, killing' the animal. The local paper built the story up so that Peter becomes a nation-wide hero who saved the lives of many people by strangling a mad canine. By the time the story reaches Rosedale, New Jersey, Peter has become the boon companion of Morgan, Kahn and Guggenheim-at least in tlIe public mind-and Peter does his best to foster the deception. He acquires an option on a piece of land to build a golf club to be backed by his wealthyf palsg but it turns out that they never heard of Peter and the balloon is burst. Thanks to Judy, his sweetheart, luck turns Peter's way and he sells the land to an airplane company for a large sum. The cast Cin order of their appearancej: Kate VValker, Jim'.s' 'wife .........

Four years on the sea of ad- venture could not conquer the spirit of the Vikings to stand courageously in face of defeat and to renew cour- age When a beaten foe in- creased our morale. Four il Courageousness years only rebuilt the Vik- ing character. The Vikings stand for courageousness at all times. The Vikings are courageous.

PARSONS HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL Parsons again showed exceptional talent in the line of basketball. Although having a physically small team they made up for it by their determination and spirit. Four pre-season games were played this year, the Vikings winning from Wicll- ita North and Yates Center, but losing' to Topeka and Iola. In the S. E. K. League they tied for third place with Fort. Scott and Coffeyville, by winning three of the six Q6j games. Parsons easily won, the Regional 'Tournament by defeating Coffeyville in the finals 251-19, thus winning the right to go to the State Tournament. There they scored a big 'upset by beating' Wyandotte in the first round, only to be defeated by VVinfield in the quarter finals. Lowell Long, for the second time placed on the All S. E. K. Team and also won recognition on the honor roll at the State Tournament.

It was composed of boys from the Sophomore and Junior classes. Under the guidance and untiring efforts of Victor Hall this ven- ture proved to be a great success. The B squad played many games and were victorious in more than half of them. The most important game of the season was with the AU squad. Although the B squad lost 21 to 17, the' members put up a hard fight and it was not until thel last minute that the opponents were sure of the victory. In all probability this addition in the sports department will continue, and will be looked forward to by most of the smaller boys. THE FOOTBALL B SQUAD The members of the B squad progressed one step farther toward their goal of representingtheir school in the coming football encounters. Under the coaching of Victor Hall they played several games with near-by schools and completed what they termed a successful, season. The squad is composed of boys from the high school and the two junior highs. They practiced every week day night' on the McKinley school ground and played their games on the high school field. The first game was played at Dennis, and we lost by the close score of 9 to 6. In the second game, played with Altamont on the home field, the boys displayed fine form and easily won 20 to 0. The return game with Dennis was very evenly con- tested, with the Dennis gridsters again coming out victorious, this time 12 to 6. The last game was played at Altamont under the lights. This was the best game of the season, ending with the score tied 13 to 13. Special credit should be given to Victor Hall for the fine managing' and coach- ing of the boys. 930 QAQJCDNIAXN Coach Bailey Ricketts The School Pep Club Vernon Hall The A Squad upper left-hand picture: First Rove'-Don James, Paul Lonnecker, Raymond Patchin, Victor Dennis, Jimmie Hataway, Lewis Frizzel. .

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL Our Football Squad of this year was composed of 25 hard working boys who had the welfare of their school at heart. Although the boys were handicapped by weight and inexperience, their good sportsmanship made them a general favorite throughout the season. Under the able direction of' Coach Bailey Ricketts the team showed great im- provement as the season progressed. One great honor bestowed upon the team was the selection of one of its members, MarvinfRogan, as guard on the S. E. K.
