Since the transcendent ideal expressed in these lines is, and should be the aspiration of every sincere student of .our School, We, the Senior Class of nineteen hundred twenty-nine, dedicate this Purple and White to those earnest and enthusiastic groups Who, perhaps more than any other, are fostering this ideal in our hearts and lives: the Girl Reserves and the Hi-Y. V. .fIxgQy j'l 1 if ,7px g' 1 I 1 ff l 6 ,, Z 4, , 7 f, 4 History of Girl Reserve The student club of the Young Women s Christian Association was organized in Pittsburg High School in the year of 1917 under the direction of Mrs. Lillian Ringle. The club was small but it started an activity which guided the attention of the girl students along right ways and which eventually was to grow into a great influence in the lives of many of the girls of Senior High School. In 1923 the work of the club was correlated with that of the State Girl Reserve Organization. A council of seven high school teachers were chosen as advisors. This council of advisors elected Miss Lula McPherson chairman. Two years later when Miss McPherson left our high school to take a position at the college the council chose Mrs. J. L. Hutchinson as chairman. and last year when the freshmen were a part of the Senior High School the Girl Reserve membership reached four hundred and the Pittsburg organization was the largest in the state. With only sophomores juniors and seniors in high school now the membership is about three hundred' but the work is being carried on so that it means more tqo the girls than ever before and the mem- bers are conscientious in attending meetings and promoting the or- ganization s Work. The average size of the Girl Reserve organizations of Kansas is a trifle more than fifty members since there are now two hundred and thirty senior high scho10l groups with a total membership of twelve thousand. The sponsors at the present time are Mrs. Hutchinson Miss O D McPherson Miss Bailey Miss Gable and Miss Jones. The :officers for the Junior-Senior C-lub are as follows: President .............

The Chapters are named for three former Hi-Y Boys and outstanding Chinese boy and a noted leader in Boys' Work. The Joe Dance Chapter was named for a young man who gradu- ated in 1923. Not only was he active in Hi-Y, but was especially in- terested in the Inner Circle Work or the Prayer Group. He lived in the country and had to arise a half houvr earlier than formerly in order to get to the meeting each morning. After graduation he went to Parco, Wyoming, where he worked in an Oil Refinery. After three years he was transferred to Louisville, Kentucky, in the same work. While working there he was badly burned in an explosion and died from the burns. In recognition -of Joe Dance's services in Hi-Y the members of this Chapter named their chapter in his honor. The officers of the Joe Dance Chapter are as follows: President, Buster Burchamg Vice-President, Arnold Irwin: Sec- retary, Hadley Nationg Treasurer, Ernest Ellis. The sponsor is Mr. W. M. Williams. The Bunnie Carlson Chapter was named after Arthur Carlson, who attended High School 1914-1918. Bunnie was always ready to boost Hi-Y. He attended Camp Wood. After his graduation he spent a couple of years in Illinois as an engineer for a Coal Company. He returned to Pittsburg and was employed by the Central Coal and Coke Company. While working on a steam shovel near Pittsburg, he was seriously injured and died a short time later. Bunnie was an ideal among those who knew him and because of his 'Christian manhood, the thing that Hi-Y stands for, this chapter chose to call their Chapter the Bunnie Carlson Chapter. The officers of the Bunnie Carlson Chapter are as follows: President, Albert Batteng Vice-President, Ronald Robson, Secre- tary, Glenn Briggs: Treasurer, Loren Walker. The sponsor is Sewall Bowling. The Jimmie Welch Chapter was named in honor of a former High School Boy. Jimmie was killed in a Copper Mine at Bingham, Utah, where he was making his home with his sister, Mrs. Paul Ram- son, and working in the mine. Jimmie was in school 1919-1923. He had a real spirit and was always loyal to the High School. He was active in Hi-Y as Well as athletics. He made his letter in basket ball. The Purple and White had a write up in the Athletic section which read: Welch was a hard man to stop when he hit his pace. His fast floor work and team work qualities made him one of the team's most valuable men. The Jimmie Welch Chapter is anxious to serve the UGREAT COACH in the same manner as Jimmie did in his Athletics as well as Hi-Y. The officers of the Jimmie Welch Chapter are as follows: 3-x o ' 41 --,7W?: . President,VClark Perry, Vice-President, George Pettit, Secretary Clharles Smith, Treasurer, Jimmie Wilson. The sponsor is Claude I Huffman. The David New Chapter was named in honor of a Chinese Boy David New, who left his country to come to America to study Christian Ideals and tio prepare for leadership. His plans are to go back to his country and teach Christianity to the boys of his country. David at tended Camp Bejoyful, the Y. M. C. A. Camp on Neosho River, where he helped with the programs and helped the boys to catch a vision of World Brotherhood. Because-I David New has set his standard f-or service the chapter decided to name their Chapter after him. The officers of the David New .Chapter areas follows: President, Bill Coillotg Vice-President, George Stuessig Secretary Mulford Gentry, Treasurer, Tommy J. Graham. The sponsor is Melvin Rice. The B. V. Edworthy Chapter was named in honor of B. V. Ed Edworthy was a missionary among the Indians in Montana for nine years. He had charge of all the religious work with the A. E. F. in France during the war. For six years he was the Boys' Secretary and Hi-Y Secretary for Kansas. Two years ago he was called to the work in Oklahoma, which position he now holds. Mr. Edworthy has been such a friend and that friendship such a challenge to the boys who have attended Camp Wood and the Conferences that this Chapter felt they Wanted to honor him with the name of their Chapter. The officers of his chapter are as follows: President, Charles Osborng Vice-President, Joe Bachmang Sec tary, Don Gultteridgeg Treasurer, Carl Blackwell. The sponsor is Loren Jarrel. ' The Advisory Council for the Hi-Y is made up of the following men who are boosters for the Hi-Y: J. W. Stafford, City Y. M. C. A Secretary, P. O. Briggs, Principal Lakeside Junior High School, F.

The Club sent a delegation of 31 boys and leaders to the Hi-Y Conference at Iola, and they brought home the banner presented by the Conference The Hi-Y Club also received the banner this year for ranking first in the Class A clufbs of the State of Kansas.

The National Honor Society I To become a member of the National Honor Society is one of the highest honors E that can come to any student. The purpose of the organization is to create an en- , thusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, promote leadership, and develop character in the students. Candidates eligible to membership must have a scholarship rank in the first third of their respective class. From the upper one-third is chosen those students ' who rank highest in scholarship, service, leadership, and character. One must also have spent at least one year in the secondary school electing such students. Service is interpreted as a willingness to render cheerfully any service to the school whenever called upon. Leadership is interpreted to mean demonstrating a degree of initiative not only in the class room but also in a group. A student may gain recognition in character by meeting his individual obligations tothe school promptly, by demonstrating his honest spirit in the class ro-om, by showing the spirit L of sincerity and cordiality toward his teachers and his student associates. Hg The following students were elected to the National Honor S-ociety for this year: i., Joe Bachman, Albert Batten, Margaret Blackett, Maxine Chute, Wendell Coffelt, M S Jean Embree, Mary Fortino, Mulford Gentry, Jack Gore, Frances J. Hall, Katherine 2 ' Jeffers, Maynard Jenkens, Louise Ku+bler, Margaret Mangum, Lucille Munn, Esther ' Myers, Paul O'C0nnel1, Olga Tavella, Erma Vandelli, Opal Watson, Van Wilson, and Alton York. THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY SONG As We meet here together We're all thinking ever of the dear old school From which we all have come, P. H. S. Every eye shining brightly and hearts beating lightly as we gaily sing, Our song is, Here we are! Comrades all! CHORUS: Oh, we are comrades all Because We've heard the call That comes to us in high school days To show that striving always pays, And we will strive to win In all that we begin Because we're members of the National Honor S0- ciety. -Waneta Sedoris. T f - q .--- 1 s ,J ,, 7! f , N- N, , filx X 51 Class History For men may come and men may go But I go on for ever. -Tennyson. S0 like unto a stream of water has been our progress through the four years of high school. Gushing forth in tiny rivulets in most un expected places, fl'6Sh and verdant, ever eager for new phases of knowl edge, so we came as freshmen. Slightly wiser from our experiences as freshmen, our tiny spring changed to a babbling brook, spreading about it many new ideas and assuming a little higher interest in the round-about affairs. Activities that to us as freshmen offered no at traction began to shine forth with a new appeal to us-thus were we sophomores. And after a second year of rather haphazard study the course of our little brook widened into a more smoothly flowing stream like a half-opened bud whose petals have been touched with purest dew and its beauty enhanced with the rising sun. Through our junior year we were safely guided. And then from the stream flowed a mighty river, significant of broader understanding and fewer impulses. The bud was now full blown. We have traveled down a long river with few opposing forces and now it is willed that we set our sail for the ocean which is life and to bring about that greater understanding and truer fellowship for our fellow-men. But let us as a last remembrance recall once more those trials and tribulations caused by the hidden whirlpools that have strengthened urs in our mighty power. How significant of our freshman year a tiny spring really is. And it did come forth from unexpected places, especially when the seniors were run such a close race in the annual contest. Several of our class mates were stellars in the music department, and the athletic teams became indebted to the twenty-niners for a strong backing the year around. Miss Beryl Lance and Miss Abby Rush sponsored our efforts during this year. For three consecutive years, Miss Rush held the same position with our class. In our sophomore year she was as sisted by Miss Anna Fintelg and in oufr junior year by Miss Alene Stamm. And finally the brook formation started. . Sophomfores, bubbling over with the very joy of living, typified in a babbling brook. We flowed on merrily in our second year. We were still following on with our motto, Striving to Win. We did win the stunt fest with a very clever number, too. And this same year four of this class were members of the basketball squad and the same Q-5 olf41 fe' 1 fW f 52 number helped to cop the football cups. Of course, we had musicians and entrants in the scholarship contest. We all had a big time on our weiner roast and at our Kansas party, too. And to top it all, we put a big one over on the Seniors and had a Sophomore Class Day! The brook is not quite so babbly and its course has widened considerably. The bed of a stream lies deeper and there begins the making of a mighty river. We had begun to dig deeper and with more certainty. All through the year we continued to show our supremacy in scholar- ship and athletics-we won the interclass track meet. Grumpy, our first dramatic endeavor, went over big with a real cast and big pro- ceeds. We didn't get in on the senior banquet, but we certainly gave them plenty to eat and remember. Another big party this year! And then came the real thrill. The spring had grown to a rush- ing, roaring river in four short years, and we, as seniors, took our places at the head of the other classes. At last the dream of years had conie true and its realization was a stadium! Our work has been lightened and we have enjoyed our social gatherings all the more. In the last year we have had as the guideposts to our success Harry Nar- ramore, Joe Bachman, Ruth Emery, and Helen Nailg but Miss Mc- Pherson and Mr. Williams have proven strong banks that nothing could overflow. A great many improvements have been made on the Booster by our journalism class and a literary supplement, The Gas Jet, made its debut. Our class play, t'The Fortune Hunter, was one of the most successful plays ever presented by any class and the truly record-break- ing crowd certainly got their money's worth. The class presented a living-room suite to the school and the remainder of the proceeds went on the stadium fund as did those of the Purple and White. Twenty- two of our members were elected to the National Honor Society. Every- one knows what a wonderful Annual we have published and that Mary Fortino and Frederick Haigler, senior royalty, ruled this yearbook. And the river rolls on for a short time, its course widens. For to the east the sun rises over the ocean which holds our fortune. As we start the new year we pray that the Supreme Judge be with us and guide us on through the waters of life.-Gretta Stuessi. 5-xi '-1 X-... XXQY,,f s Class Prophecy Scene-Auditorium of P. H. S. Time-1929. Occasion-Class reunion of the Class of 29. Two persons are on the stage engaged in earnest conversation. Why, they are Margaret Allen and Don Sommadossil Let s listen in and see what they are talking about Marg.- You can t imagine how glad I am to see you, Don. I'm teaching in the Kindergarten Department at K. S. T. C. What are you doing now? Don- Oh I m in the Fur-for-profit business, but it's more 'fur than profit! Qince Faye Harry and Constance Hill have become kind-hearted and quit wearing fur ooats all the flappers have followed their example. You know, Faye and Connie are toe dancers on the Orpheum-Keith Circuit. It is said they are making 35,000 a week, provided they don t endorse Walker s Corn Cure. Do you remember Helen Walker? It s her product. Marg.- Well really! Why she was so smart in English I was sure she would write Grammar Text Books. So she s making Corn Cure. But why mustn't Faye 81 Connie endorse it? I should think they would be just the persons to boost the sale and put Helen on Easy Street. Don- Well you see its this way. Charles Evans, the manager of the O. K. Circuit fell in love with Helen but she wouldn't have anything to do with him, said she lived for her corn cure and all the old bunk, y'know. Well, when Charles real- ized that Corn Cure had come between them he got so mad he could bite 10-penny nails He declared right then and there that he wouldn't allow anyone on his circuit to use or endorse this Corn Cure. He s trying to drive Helen out of business. He hasnt succeeded yet though. Marg.- How romantic! By the way did you know that Martha Gibson is an artists model? Yes Gene McGraw is the artist. V Mary Fortino is Empress of Asia. She had so much experience being queen in P H S that she was asked to take the job. Russel Osblorn is the Emperor, but he appears only on State occasions. Frances J. Hall is lady-in-waiting, and Millard Mack, Clols Martinache and Billy Matthews are officers of the Royal Guard. I was talking to Elsie Guinn and complimented her on her remarkable feat. She has only recently completed a non-stop swim to the Canary Islands. She tells me that while there she met Ruth Sauvain- Cecilia Misner, and H zel Nelson. They had ,gone there to round out their music education. They became so entranced with the songs of the canaries and had remained to study the movement of the canary's eso- phagus as it sings. They have evolved a new method of teaching which they are going to bring to the United States soon. The world premier of the singing by the new method will be presented in P. H. S. Don.- Did you hear about Katherine Jeffers? Marg.- No what about her? Don.- She is touring the U. S. lecturing on 'Eskimos and Why Are Tl1ey?' It is to raise funds to buy runabout planes for the lonely Eskimos. Of course, they have radios but when the blizzards blow up there all they can get is Station B.A.N.G. She says that every year 500 Eskimos go crazy listening to Esther Shackelton's Glee Club broadcast. It is partly made up of these girls: Geraldine Hendrickson, Karin Jaeger Darlene McCaffrey Alice Magie Margaret Mangrum, and Maxine Timmer- man Daphene Renick is the accompanist.

It'll be here While we are. It's the Ylork-Cogle Amalgamated Circus and boasts a greater number of n-ovel attractions than any other circus. There are the frogs and fleas, each one of which is personally trained by Bailey Axton. Then too, there is Elizabeth McCormack, fthe Tatooed Lady! Glenn Steeley and Paul Wentz are tight-wire walkers. Loren Walker has the pink lemonade concession. Selvio Tavernaro, the chemist, mixes the drink. He says he learned how in Mr. Rice's class. Barney Dugoni is the high-powered press agent for the circus. Esther Myers and Lucille Munn are getting up in the world, they are trapeze performers. A lot of the class of '29 are with the circus. Rex Rogers is the strong man. ' Marg.- Oh, here come some of the old class. Here's Juanita Leonard, Mary Bettega, Glen Hisle, and James R. Morgan. How are you all? Oh, Juanita, I've seen the portrait you did -of Wilma Lillard. It was lovely and so like her. I really think she and Henry Fintel are the perfect movie lovers, don't you? And Maynard Jenkins makes such a thrilling villain. Have you read the list of baby Wampus stars for this year? Then you know about Marcella Hybke, Juanita Hulen, Thelma Covell, Erma Vandelli, and Mildred Divoll being chosen. Glen Hisle.- How are you, Don? H-ow's the fur business? Not so good? That's a shame! Well, I think it will pick up. Mary Bettega, the prima donna, buys several fur coats a year and probably her endorsement Will boost your business. She's with the Hisle-Morgan Opera Company, you know. Say, have you tuned in on LeRoy Dues' Jazz Band on the television yet? Boy, they're hot and then some. I was talking to Alvin Ball a while ago. He's directing the Frontenac Philhar- monci Orchestra. Bob Matson and Mahon Montee play the piccolo. Alvin's wife is a prominent club Woman in Frontenac. She was formerly Wenona Miller of our High School. James R. Morgan.- I saw in the paper the other day that the wealthy financier, John Price, married the girl who nursed him when he was recovering from his ac- cident. You know, he was knocked down by one of these taxi cab drivers, none other than Victor Simoncic. The girl was Jannette Beswick.

Guess I'll look at them just for fun. Let-me-see Oh! this is an old mortgage on this place, and this is an old family record of the family that lived here before us.

We'd rather stay in this pleasant place, With friends who started with us life's race. We'd like to stay just a little while With those who meet us with a smile. But list, there's America. calling our name, Calling to work, perhaps to fame. Let us go forward without a stop Till we have reached that glowing top! Of course we loathe to leave the class, But here comes the Juniorsg they're coming tasty We must move long We cannot remaing For next year our school will call their name. We will nfot fail, we'll answer the call, We'll move on determined never to fallg And in trouble We will not repine, As befits the class of twenty-nine. -RUBY MESSENGER. COMMENCEMENT Commencement comes: twilight descends O'er all the happy hours We spent among thy corridors, Oh dear .old school of ours. For flour short years we came each morn, Began our lessons with the sun, Took up our tasks and worked on them Until the day was done. Our teachers dear and classmates too Have raised our purpose higherg We'll strive to keep those grand ideals They've helped us to. acquire. We'll go through life and nlot complain, But evening's cooling breeze Will always bring to our drab days Our high school memories. -VAN WILSON Q5 x o Qg1 ff f 2puRpLiE129 VxLH1T155 THAT DEAR OLD SENIOR CLASS OF TWENTY-NINE CSenior Songl E Music and Words by Michael Cantazaro Deep,within our memory, There is bound to always be, .

The tasks we have accomplished have not all been easy ones, but it is with much pride that We glance back over our three years in Pittsburg high It has gone down in hi tory that we as Freshmen won the Purple and White contest, as Sophomores, we lost in the last five minutes by a mere eight votes, and that as Juniors, we came out second. These facts alone are sufficient proof that we have pep, personality, and push. Our class has always been well represented in athletics. This year Bill Coillot, Noel Frakes, Lester Lucas, Rudolph Morosin, and Paul Ketterman received letters in football, While Don Gutteridge and Ray Mueller won honors in basketball. In the track meet held in the spring, Clyde Kerley, John Bell Lester Lucas, Lawrence Gooch, Orin McMahon, George Stuessi, Kenneth McWilliams, Riley Chambers, and Henry Kerley placed. We entertained with a party on February 12, which was a decided success. On April 19 we presented our annual Junior play entitled, Adam and Eve, under the direction of Mrs. Steele. To Miss Leeka and Miss Waltz our sponsors we wish to express our sincere thanks and appreciation for the invaluable services they have ren dered us. We have never regretted our choice of class officers who have co-operated with the class throughout the year. And so we take pride in the records of our class. We hope to add to our list of honors and achieve ments in the coming year. We pledge, to the Seniors of 29, to do our best to protect, guard, and revere the name they are leaving us. To them we extend our heartfelt good wishes for their future success and happiness after leaving P. H. S. THE CLASS OF 30 The class of thirty doesn't brag' Our hearts are true as the stripes of the flag. We go about our work each day, In the most pleasant and smiling way. VVe have done our best for P. H. S. To lead her to a high success. We never wait to be forced into things, But take each duty as the duty-bell rings. Silent and steadfast, we make no noise, But take our duties along with life's joys. Next year we shall leave you, our work all done, And our laurels as Seniors gloriously won. -Maxine Fudge.

With such a good start our right jolly bunch Are hoping and planning, and I have a hunch, That when '31 sends us to various fields, We'll ever be true to P. H. S. ideals. -Vernon Reese. Three cheers for the Sophomores of '29, soon to be the Juniors of '3O! - Entering the Senior high as Sophomores, we are thegfirst class to have had our Freshman year in the Junior high. With an enrollment of 364, the Sophomores have not only quality but quantity. We have representatives in nearly every activ- ity in the school. In football., Ralph Russell, Howard Walker, and Bob McDonald received letters, the latter also receiving one in basketball. Raymond Karns, Ralph Russell, and Murry Cable Won honors in the track meet held at the college. Twelve of our members were on the honor roll and several competed in the contests in the spring. We entertained with a kid party on December 7, which Was a success. The playlet, Rats, was presented by our class in chapel along with a minuet dance, The Stroke of Midnight, on Washington's birthday. We are ever boosters of the Purple and White, of our class, and of our school, and We are proud of our sponsors, Mr. Jarrell, and Miss Fintel, Whom We brought with us from Roosevelt junior high. To them We owe the deepest loyalty and gratitude for their untiring services in making our class, the class of '31, stand out as one of the truly great classes in the history of our alma mater.

The 1928 season was a sensational triumph for the Purple squad in every respect. Never before has so much enthusiasm been worked up over a series of football games. A schedule of eight games constituted the season for the Morganites. In carrying out this schedule, they won six games, tied one and lost one. Thus they emerged from the season as the undisputed S. E. K. Champions after one of the most exciting grid seasons in the history of P. H. S. John Mack, Captain of this year's eleven, was an able leader for the team and a main cog in the Purple's offensive and defensive play. The team consisted of a line which was more like a stone wall than football players, and a collection of speedy backs who were as elusive as Grange himself. The line was made up of York, Burcham, McClure, Ket- terman, Schildknecht, Cunningham, Ellis, Narrimore, Walker, Russell, and Wilson g while J. Mack, McDonald, M. Mack, Lucas, Carlton, Coillot, Morosin. and Frakes composed the backfield. RESULTS P. H. S.-12 Old Grads - 0 P. H. S.-27 Coffeyville - 0 P. H. S.-27 Chanute - 0 P. H. S.-27 Cherokee - 0 P. H.

B-D This was Mick's fourth year and he end- ed his high school foot- ball career in a splendid way. He earned a name for himself by his ability to plunge for huge gains when said gains were most needed. He has a record which would make any player in Kansas burn with envy, and for his excellent service, Mick was given aberth on the mythical S. E. K. All-Star team. Mick leaves us this year. Millard Mack QQ. BJ- Millard earned his first letter this year. He played football like a veteran and was unex- celled by any in receiv- ing punts. Dick could also pass the oval with exceptional skill. He was rated as the best quar- terback in S. E. K. and was placed on the S. E. K. All-Star team in rec- ognition of this fact. P. H. S. will miss him next year. ,J I If ' J Aiiafew yyiiliire 41.. EJ Gunipf? was again an outstanding jpass-snatch- er in the S. E. K. league. He could boast of no ri- vals in the art of draw- ing the pigskin down out of space and racing for a touchdown. He is an- other valuable who will leave P. H. S. this year. Q Lester Lucas, Captain- Elect, QL. HJ Les was one of the mainstays of our offense. It was next to an im- possibility to stop him when he was carrying the ball, as he proved in the Fort Scott game this year. He rivals the gal- loping ghost in speed. Luke will captain the team next year. Alton York QCJ For the second time in his high school career this lanky lad was placed on the mythical S. E. K. All-Star team. York was one of the giant offen- sive as well as defensive cogs in the Purple ma- chine. This was Yorkis third and last year the team and his shoes will he hard to fill. Paul Ketterman fL.T.l Paul was one of the hardest and most con- sistent fighters on the team. He was especially good on the defense and was usually where h was needed most. This was Kets second year on the squad and more will be expected of this Bolshevik lad in the fu- ture. is ' w K! 5 e ef l ifif... Ji ff' , .V 82 Buster Burcham CR. TJ Bus, playing his first. year on the squad, was one of the many reasons why we had a. good, strong line. He was one of the biggest men on the team, and he seldom found his equal. Bus will leave a big gap in the line when he leaves. Rollin Schildknecht., QR. GJ Rollin was another one of the big linemen of the Purple eleven. He was a steady and efficient player and was especially good at stopping any gains through his terri- tory. P. H. S. regrets losing him. Rudolph Moirosin QQ. BJ Looks are deceiving, for here is one of those little but mighty Purple warriors. Rudy has ex- ceptional ability in pass- ing the pigskin just where he aims it, and when there's an opening, Rudy can be depended upon to get through. . ,, 'Z Y I o 'iff 92194 , Aiflligghg I -rf ifcgilffl I KW? fe -V 1241. i NHiullllm::rftQ3 ' oo 'X .Sql-3' 1 gf f ZW I Ernest Ellis 4R. EJ Ernie is another brilliant defensive man who held down a wing position. He played a strong offensive game as well as defensive, and his excellent work will not bu soon forgotten by Pittsburg fans. This was Ernie's second and last year on the squad. P. H. S. loses another val- uable. Ishmael Cunningham. QL. GJ Ish is another fiery red-head, possessed with plenty of the old fight. Ishmael could generally be seen where the melee was thickest.. After all, there might be something to the idea that red- headed fellows are stub- born fighters. Rl L4 Dave Wilson KC? Dave was another hard fighter for the cause. This was D'ave's first vear with the team, and he made good in .a big way. Dave showed indi- cations of becoming an excellent center. 9 U R Bill Coillot QR. HJ In playing with the team for his first year, Bill looked like a man of long experience on the gridiron. He could al- ways be depended on for a gain. He has another year in which to do his stuff, and a lot will be expected of him. Ralph Russell QL. TJ A sample of what Ralph could do was seen this year, but a sample only calls for more, and he will be relied upon to strut his stuff in a big way next year. Howard Walker QR. TJ Howard is a wee bit bashful, but he feels quite at home on the gridiron. Playing his first year on the team, Howard did remarkably well and will, no doubt, make a big showing next season. He has a secret ambition to make a 100- yard run for a touch- down. Here's Homer Carlton QR. HJ Homer, better known as Kid, was a most dependable part of the Purple machine. He played a consistent game throughout the season. He was a remarkably elusive ball-luggesr and was at the height of his glory in the Fort Scott game when he raced 50' yards to a touchdown. Kid was another mem- ber of the S. E. K. All- Star team. AF- Afzowf I M111 Robert McDonald QF. BJ Bob seems to be fol- lowing somewhat in the footsteps of his brother Bob has shown us what he can do and we say he has the makings of a real football player He will probably hold down an important position on the team next year Harry Narramore QR EJ Harry always went into a game full of fight and did a lot to supply the right spirit It was dangerous for the op posing team when he be came riled and he was exceptionally good the art of going down on punts Harry Joins the alumni ranks this year Noel Frakes QL H7 Another grid gallop er is Noel Noel has been consistent in coming out for high school football and this year he was re- warded. with a berth on utive physique hampered his performance on the gridiron until this year but now he is one of the largest men in the back field we.

X WN' x m W N x if Track '28 The '28 tracksters started out with light feet and high hopes, and al- though often they were nosed out by a rival team, they ended the season in high gear and none the Worse for their experiences. In the meet with Fort Scott, the Bourbons almost succeeded in doub- ling the points but were prevented from doing so because of the persistency of the home team. In this meet, Fort Scott came out with a total of 79 points to Pittsburg's 42. P. H. S. emerged from the Carthage Invitational meet with a total of 11 points, While in the S. E. K. meet they made 18.2 points which entitled them to fourth place. In the Sectional meet, which Was an open meet, Pitts- burg chalked up three firsts and one third, and came out with 17 points to their credit. The team was captained by Glen Ellis, who Was Pittsburg's star in the javelin and hurdle events. The following boys made up the team: Ellis, York, Bell, Manley, Conard, Dues, Killough, and Lucas.

K. record last year in the shot put and succeeded in breaking the school record in this event. Things look promising for Chubby this year, and records look to be mere trifles. ALTON ABY YORK An all-around athlete is Alton. Besides being a track man, he is also a football star. York was a member of that speedy relay team which established records in the S. E. K. meet and the Sectional meet at Fredonia. He also threw the discus, and ran the century and 220-yard dash. ABY will be a great help to Coach Morgan if he ever grows up, as he seems to grow bigger each year. GLEN ELLIS CCaptainJ Glen made an excellent leader for the track team as well as being one of the swiftest point men on the team. Besides holding the school and the S. E. K. record in the hurdles, he was also a good man in the javelin event. Glen graduated last year, and he left a vacancy that is hard to fill. LES LUCAS Les was an important link in that chain of medley relay runners who made a name for themselves last year. If Luke keeps Ion, he'll be a second Snodgrass in the 440-yard dash. Well, at least, we surely do wish him luck and lots of it. We'll expect him to break some records before he leaves the old school. TARZAN KILLOUGH Tarzan earned his letter by being on the medley relay team. He also ran the 100, the 220, and the 440-yard dash in every meet. Howard graduated last year, and this year's track team miss him greatly. JOHN BELL He is another one of Morgan's fast track men. Last year was John's first year out for track, and he made his letter by showing the boys his heels in the 880- yard run. Johnny has another year in which to sh-ow his colors, and everyone will expect a lot from him. JOHN MANLEY Johnny matches up with that 'old saying, 'tlittle but mighty. He came out for track last year for the first time and made the boys eat his dust in the mile event. Johnny established a S. E. K. record in the mile run last year and also broke the school record in this event. He has another year in which to show his stuff. GLEN STEELEY Ginny has been a consistent Worker for four years, and he was rewarded with 3- letter this Year. Ginny was represented in that tendon-tearing mile run. BEN CONRAD Ben came to P. H. S. from College High, and he succeeded in making quite a name for himself. Ben was probably one of the fastest half-milers in S-outheastern Kansas, as was demonstrated when he ran anchor man on the medley relay team. Ben leaves us to finish his work at his former school, College High. 'iw ...... T 19 d s 1 P Q M N1 W' 'EL E g ? ' v- v '-'W-'iv' -- W .

The Tournament at Parsons this year furnished a lot of extra excitement. I5 Pittsburg won their first two games and the future looked bright, but the Parsons boys staged a comeback and defeated the Purple Five 34-22. ,This defeat put Pitts- Eg. burg out of the race. , f Johnny Mack captained the team and held down one of the guard positions. The forward positions were taken care of by Robson, Gutteridge, Mueller, and Mc- . Donald, with the lanky McClure as center. The guards were Mack, Burcham, and q Wilson. - Pittsburg averaged 24.5 points a game to their opponents' 19.9. The schedule , for this season took the team through a series of 10 league games, three n-on-league, ' and three tournament games, making a total of 16 games. Out of these 16 games the 5 A boys chalked up 11 victories to their credit. SEASON RECORD I P. H. S. ..... ..... 3 2 P. K. A ...... ...... 2 2 P. H.

Basketball JOHN MACK-Guard, Captain Johnny was a steady player and a most dependable guard. Morgan will miss him a great deal when it comes time to pick out next yearis team. Not only Morgan but everyone will miss Johnny. KENNETH MCCLURE-Center Andy was an efficient and valuable center. Besides being a high scorer, Andy was honored by being picked for center on the all-star team. The sandy haired center leaves P. H. S. this year. , V RONALD ROBSON-Forward ' Although Runt was one of the smallest men on the team, he proved to be a 1 big handful for any opponent to take care of. Ronald was Pittsburg's star forward, and was rewarded for his ability with a place on the second all-star team. I' 'E BUSTER BURCHAM-Guard fi Bus was one of the big reasons why Pittsburg held their opponents' average A down. He was a valuable player in the guard position and one whom P. H. S. will It miss when he graduates this year. .i DAVE WILSON-Guard 2 Q Dave was a safe player and one who could be depended upon to do his bit. He ' played a steady game as guard and furnished some of the ol' spirit for the team. DON GUTTERIDGE-Forward 'H ' Another small but mighty elusive man. Don is a mighty good forward and plenty fast. He has another year in which to show what he can accomplish on the court. RAY MUELLER-Forward Ray showed us how he oould play basketball this year, and everyone will expect 'W big things from him next year. He is one of those boys who plays basketball with Q, a style all his own. 1 ROBERT McDONALD-Forward Q f' Bob is one of those basketball players who makes 'em sit up and take notice when he attempts to loop a long one. With such a good eye he should be a main cog in the Quintet again next year. - Q' 'r r X - ., 5, '-is - 1 a x ,A - Z A - V, Q .A smx X Inter-Class Basketball Again the inter-class basketball tournament came to the same inevitable ending. This is the third successive year in which the results have repeated themselves. The playing ended in a big three-way tie, after a series of exciting games, which aroused more than the usual amount of enthusiasm. Especially toward the end of the tournament did the games become very interesting and exciting. The seniors were coached by Homer Carlton, the juniors by the red-topped Andy McClure, and the sophomores by J. Mack and Ronald Robson. ' The following players made up the squads. SENIORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES York Ryan Reinbolt Graham Mueller McCarty Martinache Ludlow Russell Wilson Gutteridge McDonald Burcham Morosin Spriggs Nation WRESTLING The wrestling team deserves a full share of credit for their work this year, as the boys have worked hard all season and have spent a lot of valuable time training. As a result of their training, the grapplers experienced a fairly successful season. Although the Purple matmen engaged in only three meets during the season, they made the most of their opportunities in each instance. The first meet of the season was held with Quapaw, Oklahoma, and the boys from P. H. S. brought home an 18-8 victory. The second meet which was also with Quapaw, ended in a 10-10 tie. Pittsburg also entered the M. O. A. K. wrestling tournament at K. S. T. C. this year and placed fourth in this meet. The team was coached by John Cfurran of the K. S. T. C. wrestling team. Johnny is an experienced grappler, and his work with the Purple matmen was very commendable. , The team was composed of the following boys: Delbert Johnson, Charles Wil- liams, John Carpenter, Fred Kees, Cleo Kees, Thomas J. Graham, Oscar Schieldknecht, Ralph Fogarty, Lester Lucas, and Joe Scalet. Kg:-NA -1 9 --,7W L' N I I ' ' Y nd t U R D 5. . Phys1calEducat1on Department previous year. The biggest project was the demonstration, the second of its kind to be given by the girls' physical education department of this school. Several tournaments, drills, plays, and gymnastics were introduced this year by Miss Mary Carroll Hillis, instructor. The demonstration was a large affair and somewhat over 250 girls participated this year. The demonstration was sponsored en tirely by the department, and was larger this year than before. Fifteen events were scheduled for the program consisting of stunts folk and character dancing, interpretive dances, relays and drills. Julia Martin was the accompanist for the presentation. At the first of school the girls in the physical education are given physical examinations. The body is examined and a report taken. Later in the year another examination is taken and both re ports are compared and the improvements noticed. Tournaments played are an important part in the class work Inter-class tournaments were held during the entire year. Among the tournaments held were soccer, volley ball, swimming, and armory ball. The soccer tournament was the first and great enthusiasm and interest was shown by the participants. Volley ball, an indoor tour nament was an exciting one in which many games were played again because of ties. The swimming and armory ball tournaments were held too late to be given any recognition in the annual. Another new activity was the track meet held early this spring The events scheduled for the meet are given under the Writeup for that affair. Danish gymn stics were introduced this year by Miss Hillis. Here tofore the Swedish type has been used. The aims of the Danish type are, flexibility strength, co-ordination and mobility. All develop the muscle tone and increase the weak parts of the body. This type is also an informal method of presenting exercises and is less artificial than the Swedish type, therefore greater interest is shown. Each ex ercise is done in a rhythmic way and this has made the type more interesting to the girls. In regard to the drills and plays, the girls have taken part in a few of these. The most interesting was the fencing drill by the girls in the G. A. A. Six girls took part. A play, Gym and Jerry, was given by the girls on health day. This day is set aside in connection with National Educational Week. In the various sports the girls have been more active than in any YQ: x 1 f 4 T II eo Y Zi , Y flwfr. ff f :E ' to t T i fag Ui Soccer Tournament Crisp fall Weather added much to the enjoyment of an inter-class soccer tournament. It was the first tournament to be played this year. Eighteen teams competed for the championship, and the winners were the Lucky Lindys, captained by Erma Vandelli. All games were ' played either on class time or after school. The runners up in the tournament were the 'tRough and Readysj' V captained by Virginia Reddg Powerful Katrinkasj' .captained by H51 Madeline Kelleyg and the Lucky Eleven, captained by Elsie Guinn. 1 , The Lucky Lindys had a hard game when they clashed with these three teams. 3 The sophomores were not especially victorious in any of the games because of lack -of practice. The juniors and seniors had played last year, and this gave them an advantage over the underclassmen. gi K s f A. -.

Volley Ball Tournament The volley ball tournament was an outstanding feature in the girls' 'physical education department this year. The tournament was held in January and all the games were played on class time and after school. The winners of the tournament were the Prop Overs, captained by Ruth Evans. Volley ball is a very active game and calls for all the alertness and team work of every member on the team. Not only the winning team displayed all of these factors, but many of the other teams as well. The Pop Overs found it rather difficult when they met with the Powerful Pats, captained by Evelyn Pattong the Jolly Jump Ups, captained by Cleo Fowlerg and the f'Lucky Strikes, captained by Wanda Marie Willisg all of which were run- ners up in the tournament. An interesting fact is that the Pop Overs and the Powerful Pats met twice in order to find out which were the winners. The first game was a tie and the Pop Overs won the second game by a margin of only two points. e at e f 1 H . ,NV 94 The Inter Class Track Meet An inter-class track meet was held April 18 of this year by the girls in the physical education department. This was the first that has ever been held by the girls The sophomores were the winners by a large majority over the other classes. Various colored ribbons were given to those that placed. There were seven events scheduled for the meet. These were the 50-yard dash, basketball double arm walking race three-legged race, potato race, basketball single arm and basketball goals. The sophomores showed good work in all the events. 'lhe results were: sophomores 62 points' juniors, S points: seniors, 6 points. The first place winners of the event are as follows: 50-yard dash, Nessie Ervan, basketball double arm Pearl Swisher' walking race, Nessie Ervang three-legged race Hazel Bennett Angelina Massavero' potato race, Evelyn Wilcox: basketball LIFE SAVING The life saving test was given this spring in our senior high pool. Miss Helen Messenger of K. S. T. C. gave the test. It is an annual event and any girl who is eligible may take the test. There are two tests given: the junior life saving and senior life saving. These tests are both very difficult and one who passes one or both of them should feel that they have accomplished something worth while. There is very little difference between the two tests except that the senior life saving test is longer and more dif- ficult Before taking the test one must practice the approaches, carries, and release methods to be able to pass. The girls that passed the senior life saving test this year were Edna Pummile, Elsie Guinn Margurite Iore and Mildred Frazier. 'Those who pas-sed the junior life savmg test were Vae Frakes Lorraine Curteman, Irene Kirk, Nola Owensby, Irene Pertha Schlanger and Shirley Bell Saunders. . gf o 'r1 P 6' single arm, Nessie Ervang basketball goals, May Allen. -A' ,7lj : l 1 ' 9 the organization are Martha Close, Lorraine Curteman, Elsie Guinn, Ellen Louise Gilchrist, Ruth Higdon, Irene Kirk, Hilda Kirk, Mildred Kennedy, Helen Nail, Nola 0 Z S , A 96 The Glrls Athletic Association The Girls Athletic Association was formed in October of 1927 by Miss Hillis director of the girls physical education department. This year the G. A. A. was very active during the entire year. The purpose of the organization is to pnomote a high physical efficiency among the girls of the school' to foster school spirit by developing interclass athletics' to provide recognition for athletic ability' and to foster good citizenship. It was found by the officers that it was necessary to revise the point system in order to make some points easier and some harder. When a girl receives a certain number of points she is entitled to various emblems given by the organization The G. A. A. has sponsored many activities this year, among them being 1 Splash Party treasure hunt and various interclass tournaments.

At first the membership consisted of representatives from each of the four classes, and the officers were elected from the school at large. In 1925 this system was abolished, and since that time the mem- bership has consisted of representatives from the home rooms. The Constitution requires that the president shall be a senior. The vice- president and the secretary are usually elected from the junior class, although this is not a constitutional requirement. With the reorganization of the Council the Constitution was re- vised to fit the need of the new system. This important piece of work was the chief activity of 1925-1926, the time of the presidency of Roy McKibben. During 1926-1927, the time of the presidency of Albert Opie, the Council emblem was chosen. This emblem is a small, octagonal, silver pin engraved with the letters S. C. During this year Annual Home- coming Day was established, and the office of School Historian was created. The first historian was Opal Wilson. In 1927-1928, the time of the presidency of Frank Schallo, the Council carried out all previously established enterprises, observed Arbor Day by the planting of the Council Elm, and published the S. C. Hand Book. This book contains information concerning the courses of study, major and minor organizations, school projects and activities, administration, the grading and point systems, the High School Creed, and an extensive self-examination. The historian of the year was Waneta Sedloris. The Councillof 1928-1929, has been unfortunate in that circum- stances over which no one had control have made it impossible to carry 'out all the regular activities, but we have better fulfilled our chief purpose than has any previous Council. This purpose is to unify the scho-ol by means of the home room representative system. When We have succeeded in securing the complete co-operation of faculty and student body we shall be able to do for the school the service for which.we are organized. The president of 1928-1929 is Van Wilsong the historian Opal Watson. F gr i X o 1 - 1 xv Y!- lg V V PEP PROPS The Pep Props, the boys' pep organization, founded January 28th last year, now has eighty-six inenibers. Those who are the charter members are Bailey Axton, Maynard Jenkins, Carl Blackwell, Joe Bachnian, Rollin Schildknecht, Russell Os- born, Albert Batten, and Charles Smith. Through the efforts of this club, it has kept the school pep going. Pep nieet- ings Were usually held preceding each game. The Peppy Janes, the girls' pep organization in the high school, was organized in October, 1928. This is a new organization in the school and in previous years no pep club had been organized for the girls. Some very capable officers were elected for the year. Mary Fortino was elected Presidentg Cllaribel Carson, Secretary- Treasurerg Margaret Messenger and Billy Pigg, yell leaders. Th nieinbership of the club for this year is about one hundred. Miss Fintel has been the sponsor for this year, and she deserves much praise for her efforts to make the club a success. 102 V ff-N 6 C my if 11277 wff5X'XWQ7 URDL WW .4 U, FJ Q4 7 'A ? 4 HO I E fi 955, X Take xem ov Leame kim 5 1 X J q , 1 '- QQDCxj'0r'n Q, gp' A 6 I il' ' : r ,L v Is ,, I ii . 1 9 W, f xl K Q 1 if ' ri E5 : MfTFQ? .

Two of the party, Ned and Dick, are much more in- terested in Christina and her friend, Katinka. News reaches the village that a thief has been stealing choice bulbs of prize tulips, and a handbill describes the thief and offers a reward for his capture. Ned and Dick induce McSpindle to wear certain clothing, answering the description of the tulip thief. When the Burgomaster beholds McSpindle so attired he causes his arrest. With McSpindle out of the way, Ned and Dick promote their friendship with the girls, and learn that Christina's stock is, unknown to her, of immense value. They reveal the truth to her and thwart the Burgomaster's attempt to grow rich at her expense. With the assistance of Chris- tina.'s Aunt Anne, the innocence of McSpindle is established, and the latter declares his affection for herg and with the prospect of a triple wedding the final curtain falls. THE CAROLINA MINSTREL BY HI-Y CLUBS On account of the increased enrollment in both the Hi-Y and G. R. this year, the clubs have decided to separate the annual G. R. and Hi-Y event. The boys decided on an annual Minstrel. The result was The Carolina Minstrel, given on January 8. This is the first time anything of this type has ever been functioned in the High School. The Minstrel was given in .two parts. The cast that took part in the Minstrel are as follows: Interlocutor .......... Bill Coillot Wendell Coffelt Bob Matson Endmen: Wilber Waite Ralph Price Mulford Gentry Dean Dyer A quartette which added much to the minstrel was composed of Loren Walker, Carl Blackwell, Bailey Axton, and Alton York.

Costello The Purple and White, or 'tAnnual, is the year book of the Pittsburg Senior High School and is considered an essential feature of high school life. The first Purple and White was issued during the year of 1899-1900. The first volume was made up of a Thanksgiving, a Christmas, and a Commencement number. The practice of having several numbers for each year was continued until 1910, when it was decided to make it a yearly affair. The Purple and White of today aims to include all the happenings of the current year. It is divided into departments suiting the administration, classes, and various activities of the school. The book is published by the Senior Class through the staff selected from their number. The selection of this staff is made by the principal and faculty. Each year the volume is dedicated to some individual of out-standing promi- nence, -or to some school activity. There is a tendency at the present on the part of the annual staff to feature an out-standing activity in the dedication and to use that as a theme for drawings, etc., throughout the book.

The paper is distributed along with the Booster to Booster subscribers. The Booster has adopted a new policy and by so doing it has increased its cir- culation 100'7 The new policy gives the paper to the students for 10c a semester in- stead of thirty five cents This decrease in subscription price cuts down on the rev- enue but the loss IS made up in the increased advertising rate.

Thirteen members composed the debate squad-seven seniors and six juniors. Each member made enough points .to be eligible to the National Forensic League- national society which recognizes both individual and co-operative efforts and abil- ities. The Pittsburg Chapter this year, by virtue of each of its members actually appearing in a contest at some time, tied for first place in the United States in the number of points earned. In November, three four-member teams entered the tournament which is held at the college each year and sponsored by Delta Epsilon Alpha. The first team composed of Ruby Brous, Mulford Gentry, Marylois Moberg, and Frances J. Hall tied on points for first place but fell to second place 'in the debate to decide the tie. At this tournament Pittsburg also received both second and third places in Extempore speaking won by Mulford Gentry and Marylois Moberg respectively. In the Southeast Kansas League schedules Pittsburg finished in second place winning six debates out of eight. These honors were secured by Frances J. Hall and Clyde Kerley upholding the affirmative and Ruby Brous and Florence Lawson the negative of the state question: Resolved that the British parliamentary form of government is preferable to the presidential form of the United States. National Forensic points totaled 573. For the first time two members of this school obtained the highest degree granted by the League. Ruby Brous and Frances J. Hall each have, by earning one hundred individual points, received the Degrees of Distinction. Albert Batten, Clyde Kerley, Florence Lawson, and Marylois Moberg received the next highest degree-that of Excellence. Mulford Gentry earned the first one-the Degree of Honor. Irene Bertha Schlanger, Mary Fortino, Wendell Coffelt, Ralph Price, and Maynard Jenkins earned memberships. In -oratory, Albert Batten achieved high honors for which the school is justly proud. There were three Contests held in the senior high school auditorium under the auspices of the Kansas City Star National Oratorical Contest and Albert won all of them. The first was the County Contest, then the district, and then the inter- district including about one-half of Kansas. The winning of these three made him eligible to enter the semi-finals at Kansas City April 26 with his oration on The Citizen, his duty and privileges under the Constitution. Kansas City Won first place thus finally eliminating Pittsburg from the competition. Albert Won two prizes- one of ten dollars and one of fifty dollars. The success of our debate teams and oration has been mainly due to the untiring efforts and expert coaching of Mrs. Steele.

Eight years ago a small amount of printing equipment was installed in a little room on the ground floor, now used as a supplement to the cafeteria, and thus, the printing department of Pittsburg high school was founded. This department grew, until, for the want of room, it had to be moved into a larger room just across the hall from the original. Mr. Chester F. Connet was then the instructor In 1926 Mr Brewmgton became the printing instructor and with the second year of his supervision came another extension of the department. Two Linotype machines were installed in an adJo1n1ng room. From that time on the printing department has been growing very rapidly. Much new equipment has been added to make it more efficient until now it is con- sidered one of the best and most complete high school printing departments in Kansas. This department does practically all of the school printing. Programs, posters, and tickets are made for basketball and football games, and every entertainment given by the high school the Junior high schools, and the grade schools. Calling cards for the seniors graduation announcements, tabular work for all schools and the Board of Education are printed. The department has recently in- stalled a book bindery and has repaired books for the library and many books for individuals of the school The main work of the printing department is the printing of the Booster, the high school paper which IS published every week. This paper is set up and printed Beacon a Junior high paper that is published twice a month. The printing classes in the morning are composed mostly of first and second year students These students are learning the principles of printing along with their practical exercises in setting type In the afternoon, a vocational class meets from one until five o clock and operates under the Smith-Hughes Vocational Education act. Many students have gone from this department and, so far, have made good. This year the department will attempt to find locations for all the graduating seniors who desire situations 5 ,-,:,.- - --7 .VII ,ipifw entirely by the students.

A beautiful nurse, Virginia Xelva, applies to the doctor as an office girl. He hires her as a nurse. Miss Xelva becomes influential in getting the doct-or interested in his work. A young man, Budd Woodbridge, and his mother come to the doctor for advice after trying every experienced doctor in the city. Dr. Sumner becomes acquainted with Budd and finds that the cause of his nervous condition is jealousy. DeWitt has been paying too much attention to Budd's girl friend, Grace Tyler. Dr. Sumner uses as his cure, a plan to get Budd interested in Miss Xelva, who made him believe he had germs of every 'sort in his body. Grace begins to wonder about Budd and tries to communicate with him, but finds it impossible. Through a birthday party given for Budd by Dr. Summer, Grace and Budd are thrown together again. During all this Miss Xelva has learned to think more and more of the doctor, and he the same of her. The story ends with two happy engagements. XQ5f Qlii1 -4- f7W : ' 124 5 4 ..i. Q..

INDUSTRIAL ARTS Cabinet work in this great course of our Public Schools is the one phase of school work that acts as a magnet to draw the boy that is restless and wants to drop his school Work, back into school. There he can give vent to his physical feeling and can build something concrete, where he can see his thoughts and ideas take form and shape into something that will be handed down to his posterity for generations to come. The student upon completing the course of three years, or after having com- pleted only one year in tl1e Cabinet Making Course, will have a greater appreciation of well constructed furniture when he starts to buy furnishings for his own home. Last, but not least, he will have an understanding of the use of tools, be able to keep the house and furnishings in repair, and have ideas in selecting the wood and design in his furniture that will make his house a home. .

THE GREGGITE COMMERCIAL CLUB The Greggite Commercial Club was organized in the fall of 1928. The club is made up of the advanced stenography class for the purpose of furthering commercial training. The club meets the third hour every Tuesday, and at that time there are pro- grams given al-ong the line of commercial training. The club also arranges to have some business man come at least once a week and speak on the subject What the Business Man Expects of his Office Force. This is done in order that the class will know what the business world will expect of them. l 4. , 6 l t A f Z A L L Q - - Q . , , .L Of - ..

Thrift-Success 5 Economy is a savings bank, into which men drop pennies and get dollars in return. 1 The work of the school banking is done systematically and under proper super- vision. It is carried on through the Home Rooms. Each depositor has his own bank- ing card. Each day the pupil deposits what he has. It is the habit of thrift that is to be established, and this habit is of greater value than the fact of any particular amount of money thus deposited. From the total of these daily deposits, the pupils are allowed to withdraw on ' Friday of each week. The balance is turned over to .the sponsor, Miss Leeka, and the ' 'I entire amount from all Home Rooms is deposited in the bank on the following 'f Saturday. 2 Total deposits in bank from October 12, 1928 to April 20, 1929 amounts to 'E' 362956. 41 ,4 Miss McPherson's home room with a deposit of S116.27, and Mr. York's home room with a deposit of 399.538, were the largest depositors.
