This wonderful structure of modern industrial civilization which we have built must rely for its strength and stability upon the keystone held by Modern Education. This mechanical age, filled with its many wonderful - yes. even almost miraculous - inventions and discoveries, has made possible a kind of life for all that would have been impossible even for the kings or the wealthi- est of the money lenders in generations gone by. Gone are many of the drudgeries of in- dustry, business and the home - gone, never to return. The increasing use of natural power has made it possible for the cogwheels' of industry to liberate man from his economic shackles - the necessity of working long and hard in order to secure even the necessities of life. Man needs some relief if he is to get the most out of life and to make his greatest contribution to the common welfare. Modern man is now being provided this needed leisure. The span of man's working life has been shortened and will continue to be. Youth has largely been taken away from gainful em- ployment and therefore enters the world of occupations later. The age of retirement from active occupational life has been lowered. The working day and the working week have been shortened. This increased leisure time necessitates a shift in educational emphasis from mere preparation for making a living to preparation for living - the use of leisure time for enriching and ennobling life. The school must take the pupil as he is and prepare him for society as it is. Not only mustgthe school educate for life as it is today, but also, for adaptability to constantly-recur ring new conditions, which will make pos- sible a better and more fruitful life tomorrow. The school must not falter in the all-impor- tant responsibility which society has placed upon it, or the future of American democracy will be jeopardized. Education must change to meet changing social and economic con- ditions. The type of education must be changed to meet the challenge of the times and the needs of modern youth. The modern school must be a distinctly different school than that of a generation ago, for Three-R education today would be horse-and-buggy education in a motor age. Life and society today are much more complex. The Spirit of Industry has moved so rapidly in bringing about the present order that many are unable to com- prehend the real significance of the changes wrought. The school of today, therefore, has a much bigger job in keeping abreast of the times and in interpreting the present order to both youth and adults in such manner as to make it possible for them to live the good life. The amount of education for each youth will be increased. If opportunities for gainful employment are not available, society must provide opportunities for youth to improve itself by better training for work which will come later. and for the important business of living, both now and later. Society is rapidly coming to recognize the close relation which exists between education, employment, and the public welfare. Adults are demanding educational opportunities in their new lei- sure, and adult education seems destined to become a very significant part of society's educational program in the near future. The Children's Charter guarantees to childhood and youth the protection and guidance of the home, the church. and the school in securing an education. No society can long endure at a high degree of efficiency if it neglects the care and proper development of youth - its most priceless possessions - for the eternal debt of maturity to youth must be paid.

Trans- portation of every sort, whether in the air or on land and seag habits of livingp forms of government - all have faced a radical change. But what of the schools? Have they kept up with the parade, or ahead of it? Have they kept- the faith with the pupil-the parents -the community? We believe they have, and so by picture and story we show herc, what we believe to be one of the most interest- ing presentations ever to grace the pages of the Purple and White. 91456101109 . . Guidance is the fountain head of the modern school which must assume the responsibility of providing for the whole life of youth. not merely the educational and vocational aspects of his life. Ethical, recreational. social, and health activities also play very important parts in the complete and wholesome life. The balance of relations implied by these facts, must be ingrained by the school through guidance. The American school, an institution which reaches practically every girl or boy, regardless of race, color, creed, or economic level, occupies the key position in providing this valuable service to society and its members. The school, through its curricular and extra-curricular programs, provides oppor- tunities for its pupils to become familiar with the desirable life practices in all these rela- tions and activities and for the pupils to try them out in life situations. The curriculum of the school has been greatly broadened in order to prepare the expanding school popu- lation to meet thc demands of modern life, which are increasing in complexity. The extra-curricular program of the school has been extended to provide athletics, music, clramatics, clubs, and other activities for all. rather than for just the chosen few. Guidance, a form of systematic assistance which aims to lead to self-direction on thc part of those receiving it, assists individuals in analyzing their interests and abilities: in securing full information regarding oppor- tunities which the school and community offerg and in making wise choices and deci- sions in keeping with these interests. abilities, and opportunities. A mechanized society, which adds greatly to the complexity of the economic and social order, demands guidance for both youth and adult in order that they may find a place wherein they may live a life of service to both self and society. Guidance is of great assist- ance to them in interpreting the opportunities and requirements of the increasingly numer- ous and specialized occupations in the world of work. X XX ,.,,,,A, f 5-gi. - DEDICATI HIS ISSUE of the Purple and White is dedicated to an Idea and to a Man. The Idea is that of Education Facing the Changing Social Order. Every st-udent is asked to sit down. with his family and carefully ex- amine the illustrations and read the text matter describing this inter- esting subject. When he has done so, the vast changes which have taken, place in one generation, will become not only apparent, but also somewhat startling. There is no one in our community who has had more to do with this change than our honored principal, Mr. John L. Hutchinson, and because of our love and respect for him, both as a man and as an educator, we dedicate to him this issue of the Purple and White. lie lrlren is Gyvarfer Great was the vision and significance of The Childrens Charter, submitted by the Presi- dent at the lVhite llouse Conference on Child llealth and Protection in 1930, for it recog- nized the inalienable rights of children as the first rights of American citizenship. The group of national leaders who formulated this great document, pledged themselves to stand for and to stimulate such thoughts and action throughout the nation as would make pos- sible the realization of the broad humani- tarian principles of which it consisted. This ever-alert Knight of Protection guards the entrance of children into the Arch- way of Life. And as they follow the meander- ing pathways of life in the community and nation, their way is charted by the love. guidance, and protection of the home, the church, and the school. These key social institutions are partners with the community and nation in guaranteeing to each youth under the American Flag the right of whole- some development and the opportunity to live and enjoy a good life. Each child has a right to bc well-horn and to have the love, health, and security which a home provides. lle has a right to that spir- itual and moral guidance of the church which will help him to stand firm under the pres- sure of life. He has a right to such education and guidance by the school as will make it possible for him 'to adjust himself to life: to explore and discover his interests and abili- ties: and to develop his individual abilities and capacities through analysis, information. and experience. Furthermore, the girl or boy is entitled tu live in a community which recognizes and plans for his needs, protects him against physical dangers, moral hazards, and disease 3 provides him with safe and wholesome places for play and recreation 5 and makes provision for his cultural and social needs. The firm foundation for the welfare of each succeeding' generation of society depends upon the care- ful and continued preservation of its youth, IX 'x . AUXX N ww W.

The American school, through the Doorway of Individualized Instruction, unfolds to youth the opportunities of life which lie ahead. The school must inform the student of the curricular and extra-curricular oppor- tunities which exist in the educational worldg and of the occupational opportunities to be found in the world of work which he will enter later. The school must point out the pathways leading to these opportunities. showing the qualifications and preparation necessary for successful participation in them. The modern school assumes the responsi- bility for making a careful study of each youth who enters its doors, in order that it may be better able to adapt its curricular and extra-curricular offerings and guidance serv- ices to the interests, abilities, and capacities of the student. Modern education endeavors to provide in the fullest possible way for the varied needs of its students, rather than in- sisting that every student, regardless of type, conform to the same rigid academic standards. In studying the student, the school must first ascertain the nature and extent of his adjustment to the work and life of the school: it must analyze his record of scholarship and participation in extra-curricular activitiesg it must discover as well as possible, through psychological tests, the amount and type of mental ability and capacity possessed by him 5 and it must learn something of his out-of- school life and home environment. After the school has pointed out the edu- cational and occupational opportunities avail- able, and has discovered the strengths and weaknesses of each of its students, it must provide such counseling as will help each student to avail himself of those opportuni- ties which are most in keeping with his inter- ests, abilities, and capacities. The student has a right to this service and he should co- operate with the school to the fullest extent in its provision, if he is to attain his broadest development and that greatest of life's satis- factions - a consciousness of work well done. EDUCATION IS FACING, AND IS MEETING SUCCESSFULLY, THE CHANGING SOCIAL ORDER. S! My rj x X 1 X XNKXWI Wm? wg I IM :pf I X M WIN I U I I tw I M. I I 'I , x-1..,, .

Special meetings are held at the call of the President of the Board. The grounds upon which the high school is located comprise four city blocks and contain 10.8 acres of land. There were between sixty and seventy buildings formerly on these grounds. For a number of years before the Senior High School was constructed there was a very evident need for this building. The enrollment in the old high school was very much below that which could have been normally expected from the total enrollment of the city schools. At the close of the school year in 1919 the total enrollment of the Senior High School was 447, and the number of teachers was 18. At the close of the school year in 1928, which was the second year that- the new school was operated, there was an enrollment for the year of 961, and a teaching corps of 30 teachers. The increasefrom 1919 with the old building to 1923 after the construction of the- new building was 514, which was an increase of 115 per cent.

Glass ill Whereas the end of the school year is drawing near, and the Seniors will soon leave Pittsburg High School, never again to return to the aforesaid institu- tion in the capacity of students of it. We, the Seniors of Pittsburg Senior High School, being of sound and sup- posedly educated minds, do hereby made, publish and execute this, our last will and testament, thereby making null and void all previous promises and docu- ments on the subject. We leave to our beloved principal, Johln Lewis Hutchinson, to the Board of Education, to the Faculty, and to our Superintendent, Mr. M. M, Rose, our sin- cere gratitude for all that they have done to make our life here more profitable, enjoyable and worth-while. To the Juniors we leave the front chapel seats, a heritage which entails grave responsibilities, for they must henceforth always act with poise. gravity, and dignity during assembly, always show proper respect and courtesy to the speaker, always remain quiet, never whisper among themselves, and never, never giggle or laugh at any mishap on the part of the speaker or entertainer. In other words, never do anything that we have fpardon, I mean haven'tJ done. We bequeath to the Class of '37 our hopes, advice, and admonitions lest they stray from the path and fail to achieve that great and coveted honor of graduating from this high school Ca thing in which we hope to participate this yearl. We leave to both the Class of '36 and the Class of '37 the privilege of hav- ing the straight and narrow path pointed out to them time and again and being told over and over that their class is the smartest and best class that Pittsburg High School has ever had, even as we were told and as other classes will be told ad finitum. Accordingly we do hereby make the Faculty, Principal Hutchinson, and his assistants as the executors of this document and charge them to be Vigildnt and conscientious in the execution thereof. Anno Domini 1935. CLASS OF 1935, ROBERT FLEISCHAKER. ISEALI A Glance Backward ALTHOUGH WE MUST PART, WE REMAIN TOGETHER IN SPIRIT, TO LIVE OUR LIVES WITH MANY FOND MEMORIES. As this senior class of 1935 bids farewell to the Pittsburg Senior High School, and to the many friends and acquaintances formed there, it is with a profound feeling of pride and sincere feeling of sorrow that we turn once again to view the accomplishments before resuming our journey outward into life for which we have been' preparing ourselves. Assuming the title of Sophomores we drew for the Good Ship P. H. S. and set sail for parts unknown September 12, 1932, with Eula Sipes, president, in command. We elected as our vice-president, Jimmy Schmuckg secretary, Stewart Davis, and Dorothy White, treasurer, under the capable sponsorship of Miss Jessie Bailey and Mr. Clyde Hartford. You're Telling Me was selected as the class play, featuring a cast composed of Stephenson, Howard, Hurst, Janes, Eye- man, Miller, Saunders, Kidder, White, and Morgan, under the direction of Miss Maude Laney. As we grew in stature and in knowledge we eventually became juniors and adopted as our motto, A quit-ter never wins and a winner never quits. W'itfh Jack Friggeri at the helm as President, Ernestine Morin as vice-president, Elsie Clark, secretary and Guido Gallinietti as treasurer we started on our second lap. Skidding was selected as the Junior play with a cast composed of Truster, Murphy, Wilson, Kidder, Marchbanks, Kelly, Forbes, Douglas, Chapman and Flack, under the direction of Mr. William Row and assisted by Miss Anna Fin- tel, class sponsors. We made our presence felt by succeeding in taking our share of honors in music, athletics, debate and various other activities. Assuming the traditional air of dignity, we then took our places as seniors under the capable sponsorship of Miss Dorothy McPherson, Mr. Winfred Will- iams and Mr. Ray Heady. Clifford Kelly was elected president with the aid of Guido Gallinetti as vice-president, Dorothy Jane Wilson as secretary and Mona Helm as treasurer. The senior class reigned triumphant in the Purple and White cont-est and selected Jimmy Schmuck and Eileen Stephenson as King and Queen. Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm was selected as ihe class play and was di- rected by Miss Dorothy McPherson. The cast was composed of Douglas, How- ard, Stephenson, Kelly, Loy, Murphy, Wilson, Parker, Smith, Saunders, Brous, Marchbanks and Hay. Again we took our share of the honors in all extra-cur- ricular work. We attended t-he junior-senior frolic an,d then the banquet sponsored by the junior class and were entertained royally. The Baccalaureate and Commence- ment services, proclaimed us one of the largest groups ever graduated from our school. As we move on we stop once again to express our appreciation to Principal Hutchinson and the rest of the faculty for the splendid co-operation they have shown. LEO HOWARD '35. Class Prophecy, 1985 The members of the Pittsburg High School graduating class of 1935, desir- ing to keep in touch with each other, entered into the following unique agree- ment before disbanding: Each member was to keep Miss Dorot-hy Jane Wilson, the secretary, informed of every change made in residence or occupation. Whenever any member sends a communication, he sends a fee: hence, since our class is very energentic and progressive, Miss Wilson needs no gainful occupa- tion other than her class secretarial duties, and she is rapidly growing rich. As it is necessary to keep printed records ready to send out upon request, the secretary must maintain a staff of trained, undersecretaries, typists and printers. Lewis Kidder is chief of staff, and among his assistants are our old classmates, Jane Chapman, Aunita Hinkley, and Landrum Wilkerson. Recently I had occasion to write the secretary's office for information con- cerning Grola Gaston. The report assures me that she is mistress of the largest farm in Cherokee County, and very successful and happy in her work. In the same report I found the members of our class: There was established in Pittsburg in 1937 a school known as THE SUN- FLOWER COLLEGE OF COMMERCE. Its president is Clifford Kelly, its vice-president, Dean Kirk, its board of directors-Dan Ponto, Mayfield Rose, Joe Parks, and James Miller, and among the instructors are our friends-Helene Hughes, Mildred Horton, Erma Citron, and Elnora Cox. The buildings of this school were planned by Jack Lambert and Richard Landers, Architects. In their offices is a staff of draughtsmen which includes their classmates. John Mackie and LeRoy Albert-ini. Other members of the office force are Daisy Million and Ruth Price. Betty Frolich, Doris Price, Mayme Matney, Thelma Timms, and Betty Smith met at a librarians' convention held in Topeka in June of 1938. How they did enjoy gossiping about P. H. S. and exchanging experiences! Of course they do not intend to remain librarians, but be careful, girls, a career can get a strong grip if given too good an opportunity. Sometimes I learn something about old friends without writing the secre- tary. The largest circus of the day is now showing in Pittsburg. It is called COLLINS AND DRUMMOND'S FAMOUS SIX-RING CIRCUS, WITH THE WORLD'S MOST MAMMOTH AGGREGATION OF MASTODONIC MONSTRO- SITIES. It would be well to attend, for there you will see some of your old friends. Of course you have guessed the owners are Mack Collins and Donald Drummond. The leader of the band is Leland Schlapper, and among his musi- cians are Vincent Jackson, Searle Lanyon, Valgean Browning, Billy Park, and Alden Carder. Dorothy June Eyeman is the most famous horseback rider and Mary Elizabeth Barbero is the Star Blues singer. Giovina Bosco and Diana Fer- guson are ticket- sellers for the side shows. A few days ago I was enjoying some music over the radio. I recognized the voice of the announcer as that of Robert Fleischaker. He announced a pop- ular girls' quartet of which the members are Helen Marchbanks, Lena Pender, Virginia Hay, and Ella Mary Bunyan. They were accompanied by Ella Hurst. Back in 1935 there was much said about the effect of music upon animals, and one heard a suggestion that if music were used in dairies, work would be easier for dairymen, cows would be more contented, and production would be higher. Upon a business call at the M00-COW DAIRY, owned by Willard Blasor and Dean Dalton, I asked concerning the truth of a rumor that they had tried the plan with soothing-songs by Margaret Marty, Dorothy Clugston, Mary Dean Skidmore, Mary Porter, and Elizabeth Watson. Dean laughed and gave me a somewhat evasive answer. But the more serious Willard assured me that the ladies mentioned above are now mistresses of their own homes. Who their husbands are he did not say. I am still in the dark about the rumored experi- ment and about the effect of dairy music. Gfass Cpropliecy, 1935--Gan ,f. Being in need of some new dresses, I recently visited a prominent designing establishment. I was pleased to learn that its proprietor is Viola Heatwole. She fold me that she has a recent report from the secretary saying that Lois Butler, Lanita Brown, and Kathyrn Bell have undertaken the management of similar establishments. The report also states that Dorothy Broadhurst, Robert Lee, and Margaret Osredker are instructors in an academy of art in New Yorkg and that June Armstrong, Elsie Clark, and Mildred Collins are supervisors of music in the schools of Denver, Salt Lake City, and Seattle respectively. Filmore Dewey, famous for new Ford designs, is visiting in Pittsburg after a three-year residence in Detroit. He reports that Kent Grubbs and Jack Frig- geri are employed in the Ford factories. You have all heard of the Kelly-Miller Ready to Wear chain stores of the West. The secretary has just learned that the owners of this great business are James Kelly and John Miller, two of our old classmates. They advertise by style shows given by traveling representatives of their firm. I saw one of these style shows in Memphis last year. It was given by Winnie Pence. She told me that Katherine Parker, Lorene Gaines, and Mona Helm are serving the Kelly- Miller Company in the same capacity. As the firm is operated on a profithshar- ing basis, these ladies are doing well financially, as are the proprietors. Wallace Watson's last letter to the secretary reports that he is a member of Uncle Sam's Air Mail Service. Melvin Joseph, Wayne Jones, and John Holmes have become United States Forest Rangers, stationed in Montana. Jack Henderson is a cowboy on a Texas ranch. In a letter to Pittsburg friends he stat-es that Tan Power is proprietor of a palace of entertainment in Houston and stars Ann Saunders as dancer. In the spring of 1940 a series of storms occurred along the coast of Florida, and many lives were endangered, The newspapers reported a number of spec- tacular rescues by Miami Beach life guards. Did you notice that two of these guards were our friends Hubert Cronister and Calvin Stephenson? On a vacation spent at Long Beach, California, I met Geraldine Beard, who is director of sports for girls. She has just learned from the office of the sec- retary the whereabouts of seven other classmates. Frank Oedekoven is proprietor of a winter resort on the slopes of Mount McKinley. Reno's best known divorce lawyer is Gordon Hammick. Bob Tharrington is a wealt-hy lumberman of Boise City. John Neputi has transferred citizenship to Canada and is a member of the famous Northwest Mounted Police. Virginia Tindell is making good as a writer of verse for valentines and ad- vertising. Helen Caruso is a teacher of foreign languages in Cuba. Vivian Alumbaugh is national president of the Blue Stocking Club with headquarters in Boston. While visiting in Kansas City I went for a permanent to Madame Marguer- ite's Beauty Shoppe. Imagine my pleasure at finding that Madame is our school- mate Marguerite Anderson, and that patrons of her shop are ladies we have known who have made their homes in the city-Dorothy and Olga Brous, Anna Bell, Hazel Blackett, and Freda Daggett. Macy Jean Cutburth, who lives in Pittsburg, heard one day not long ago a gentle tap at her kitchen door. When she opened the door, there stood John Nogel with his book of poems. He is a tramp poet, reciting his poems for his meals and trading copies of his book for lodging. Reading recently of a celebrated case of surgery in a Chicago hospital, I found that the surgeon is Leonard Sammons, and that Mildred Smith, Mildred Duncan, and Ruby Devine are on his nursing staff. Gfass Cprophecy, 1935--6011 'L Miss Eugenia Ann Crane, member of the well-known traveling concert company, reported to the secretary that she had met Jim Pappadakes, Earl Pat- ton, Steve Rati, and Paul Rhoads, hitch-hiking to the World's Fair in St. Louis, where they hope to profit by some simple entertainment racket. Dorothy Deill, who travels a great deal with her husband, recently toured England. She told me she had met in London Margaret Douglas, Ella Marie Fikes, and Helen Ruth McGinnis. They told he that during their travels they had met Lydia Tindell, Judy Truster, and Dorothy White. These ladies were spending a summer in the alps. The former Helen Staley and Dorothy Spicer, are still in Pittsburg. With their husbands and families they occupy suites in the John Klein Aparments. I have heard that Nellie Sullivan, Mary Thomas, and Elizabet-h Tatham are members of the commissary staff in the Bachelors' Home at Arkansas City. If any one hears those two bachelors, Radford Walker and Judson Waggoner in- quiring for a home, just ment-ion the Bachelors' Home to them. Warren Loy and Philip Lane will never grow up. They are still rollicking 'round Pittsburg. Warren is entering a harmonica contest sponsored by Philip. When next anyone writes to the secretary will you please inquire whether Bill Murphy ever succeeded in his stupendous project? According to my latest information he was so busy he was rarely seen outside his study, and so ab- sorbed he could scarcely remember his classmates' names. He was working on a plan to supply natural heat to Kansas by piping steam from Alaska's Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes. I visited K. S. T. C. on her annual Old Grads' Day in 1943. I found that the chief coach is Stewart Davis, and on the faculty team are Homer Williams, Henry Bitner, Bill McWilliams, Leland Marshall, Dennis Noor, and Bill Morgan. Of all our classmates James McClellan and Del Morosin are farthest away from old P. H. S. They live in Byrdville, the capital of Little America, vifhere they are developing platinum mines. I accompanied a friend to purchase a pair of dress shoes a few days ago. While displaying a particularly pretty pair, the clerk said, Now these shoes are the finest we have, and the pattern is the very newest. They are designed by Marshallingerf' Since his name is among my high school memories, I asked, To what Marshallinger do you refer? He replied, Why, he is Jerome Marsh- allinger, a young man educated in Pittsburg, Kansas. Aft-er graduating he and Willard Patterson, a classmate, went to Lowell, Massachusetts, where they en- gaged in shoe designing. Their shoes are internationally known. One day I passed a great crowd on a street corner. They were listening intently to a speaker standing on an inverted half-barrel. He was reciting the virtues of what he called Onnicure Liniment-cures everything. Thinking the1'e was something familiar about the voice, I joined the crowd. Soon I was sure I recognized Max Bates. Then I looked at the man who stood beside him passing up the bottles of cure-all. I knew him immediately for Clifford Barr. They were very cheerful and seemed quite prosperous. They said they were the in- ventors of Bates and Barr's Onnicure. Well, people like to be-persuaded that their ills can be cured. Clarence Murk, editor of the society section of THE DAILY BLATT AND BLARE published an item yesterday in which you will be interested. It states that the Gossips' Circle met last Wednesday at the home of Lois Woods, and that there were present five former members who are here visiting friends whom they knew before they married and moved away-Winona Wilson, Marye Will- iams, Dolores Story, Fannie Trisler and Mazura Vanriette. One of the guests is said to have reported that she had met Dorothy Smith Mossbeach enroute to Reno. Another guest said she had been entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bush, and had met there the ladies whom we used to know as Frances Smith, Irene Russell, Jenna Bell Reece, and Dorothea Seybold. Gfass prophecy, 1935--Gonizf. From our classmate, Dr. Ernest Crowder, now a dentist in Pittsburg, I learned that among his patrons he numbers the families of Jesse Collins, Mrs. Lydia Frank Winkerton, and Mrs. Clara Mae Elrod Kinnersley. Did you hear Jack Knost sing last week from station P. I. G.? And how do you enjoy Leslie Jones and Joe Duggan over F. I. S. H.? Buy your fruit from the fine fruit market kept by Luella Fanska and Eliza- beth Farris, it is next door to the coffee shop owned by Leonard Roberts and Ralph Stuck. A few days ago I was examining a fine radio cabinet a friend had just bought. Hidden away in, a corner of it I found this legend: Designed by Joe Carpenter. My friend told me that Eugene Elnloe and Edmund Ensman are making their mark in the field of television. Have you heard any of Leo Howard's political speeches? He is the demo- cratic candidate for governor. You may hear him Tuesday evening in the 'city hall at Crowburg. He has recently heard from our old school-fellows, Dean Brand and Dick Brisbin, who are exploring the islands around the North Pole and conducting ethnological research among the Eskimos. Great progress is being reported in the scheme to concentrate the heat of the sun so that it may be stored in snmmer and released and distributed for heating houses in winter. Much credit- for this great piece of work is due to Raymond Cart-er and Bob Church. A recent report from the secretary's office states that Guy Edwards is the owner of Cornstalk Factory-an establishment in which cloth is made from corn- stalks. Elbert Ellicott and Wilfred Ensman are employees of the factory and Henry Flack and Andrew Fulton are in charge of the great fleet of trucks used to bring in the raw material. A recent letter from the office of Secretary Wilson says that Rosalie Proper has just been employed as Chief Stewardess on the FRANKLIN D., one of Amer- ica's recently completed palatial passenger ships from San Francisco to the Orient, and that Robert Waugh is chief cook on the same ship. Have you been. reading the poetry of Effie Faye Harris? She is now in- cluded in the list of Kansas poets and you will find her work in THE DAILY BLATT AND BLARE. The society items of this paper often contain news of the doings of the ladies we used to know as Marjorie Fry Swansdown, Mary Frances Fleming, Eula Sipes, and Shirley Jean Smith. Recently a great joint coming out party was given to introduce to society the eldest daughters of these ladies. A few weeks ago a famous New York symphony concert company came to the city. I was agreeably surprised to find that our old school-fellow, Julius Wilbert is a member of it. He told me that he had met in New York George Washburn, Clifford Wheeler, and Charles Wilcox, all in Uncle Sam's naval uni- form and all enthusiastic about their work. These sailor-men say that they met in Tokio last year, Douglas Wright, who is American Consul to that city. When, he went out to his new post he was ac- companied by a big shipping agency that directs commerce between Japan and the United States. While reading a copy of EVERY DAY NEWS, published by Charles Hall, I noticed that the pictures in the comic section are signed by Jack Gilliland and Leon Zinn. I saw an item of news about two people whose names you know. It states that Warden Thomas and John Vilmer are building in the Ozarks a great factory in which they will can paw-paws. Since you graduated a new monthly magazine has been established in Pitts- burg. 'It is called the RUMETSCH MAGAZINE, and its owner is our friend Helen. One of her short-story writers is Ella Dean Mullikin, and one of the illustrators is Ruth Logan. Glass 73ropliecy, 1935--6on't. A Methodist in Galena told me his church has appointed Roll Davis choir leader. This is an important job, as Galena has grown rapidly the last 10 years. Howard Siple has established a successful newspaper in Asbury, Mo. On his staff are Georgia Eva Gilbert, Lavella Johnson, Alver Laughlin, and Juanita Miller. From the society items of this paper we learn that Juanita Palmer, Eileen Stephenson, Wanda Storey and Margaret 0'Connor are shopping for trousseaus in Paris, that- Margaret Lock is traveling w'th her husband in China, and that Hazel Moffatt, an English instructor is visiting in Waco, Missouri. Lawrence Spangler, who operates an advertising agency, advertises the Schmuck-Shorter Freckle Remover , Hazelwood's Dandruff Eradicatorf' and I-Iallacy's Antique Shop. The lady whom we knew as Gertrude Sellmansberger, while shopping for her children's Christmas in, Pittsburg, purchased from Margaret Johnson at Kress', from Phyllis Lafayette at Grant's, from Mary Louise Lock at Eatmore candy store, and from Wilma Willis and Kathleen Schultz in Ramsay's toy Dept. Friends of Wilfred Frankenfield, Merle Irwin, and Richard Tindell say that the three are riding t-heir bicycles around the world. When touring Southeastern Kansas and passing through Opolis, buy your hot dogs and other refreshment from Ber'ha Toussaint, Pearl Smith, and Eliza- beth Gould. Edith Goodhall, Greta Gilliland, Glenda Rinehart, and Christine Watson are still in Pittsburg. They are occupied with their homes, children, and Sunday- school classes. Wilma Kennett and Laura Alice Kerley operate a potato farm near Kala- mazoo. Just next to it is a turnip farm owned by Rosemary Kime and Ethel Krimminger. Jay King is proprietor of a Walk-a-Thon establishment. Helpers are Nel- lie Honse and Hazel Sherman. A lady whom we knew as Edna June Wheeler reports that fn the course of her travels she vfsited an art museum in Boston and had as guides Ernestine Morin and Marjorie Mortimer. The papers had much to say in 1950 about Bob Nevin, who broke into the ranks of the World's famous scientists by smashing the atom and securing power to run all the automobiles in the country for less than one thousandth of the cost of gasoline in 1935. The medical laboratories owned by Lloyd Sloan have produced some aa- tounding cures for tuberculosis, cancer, fevers, colds, corns, and hangnails. Among the scientists who contribute their knowledge to the discovery of these cures are Herbert Stafford and Alva Sanders. Guido Gallinetti has worked out a food tablet to take the place of the! present heavy eating. You would scarcely know him, he is so unbelieveably thin that he looks much taller than his youthful six feet. He is living on his own highly advertised food tablet. One tablet makes a meal and the cost is merely nominal-10c a thousand. I am told that Thurston Graham is minister in the Church in the Wildwood, and that faithful followers and helpers are Glencora Alexander, Reba Cald- well, and Cleo Gilmore. A few days ago a band of entertainers came to town. They called them- selves Jackson's Jolly Minstrels. The leader is Cornelfus Jackson, and other members of the band are Marguerite Gilmore, Hazel Walker, Geneva Mitchell, Verna Price, Mary Hazel Phillips, Myron Newton, and Iciebelle Miller. I hope you have enjoyed hearing what has become of our If anything' in this paper is wrong, remember that perfection theoretical, and even with an efficient staff such as the one in office mistakes will sometimes be made.

Increasing emphasis is being placed upon those activities which may be practiced throughout life. DENNIS fDuckl NOOR, Co-Capt. 187 lbs. Fullbacli Duck was the charging, triple threat, fullback, and captain of the Dragon eleven. Twice he earned a berth on the S. E. K. All-Star team, this season as full: back and captain. His toe and passing arm gained many a yard for his team. This was his fourth and last year of leather lugging for P. H. S. He was one of few to win a berth on the first string for four straight years. ALBERT fsij SIMONCIC 170 lbs. Halfback Albert was that big sophomere halfback we found returning punts and charging through the line helping open up a hole for the ball carrier. He brought disaster to many of the foe's passes. His playing was a valuable asset to the Dragon crew-. Con-'irierable can be expected from him the next two years. RICHARD fDickl SMITH Co-Captain Elect 165 lbs. Right Tackle Richard was a rough and ready go-gettei- tackle. He was a heavy, hard hitting lineman and many were the downfall: of op- ponents trying to pass him. He was chosen one of the co-captains for next season, which will be his last year to repeat his past suc- CQSS. I COACH PRENTICE GUDGEN This was Coach Gudgen's sec- ond successful season at P. H. S. His skill and guidance proved to be one of the best possible. BILL MORGAN, Co-Captain 165 lbs. Quarterback Bil1's passing and line smash- ing ability kept many a game out of the fire. If he wasn't dashing for the goal with the ball. he would be in there trying to bring down the opposition. His quick wit guided his team to victory over five of the six S. E. K. op- ponents. This year he earned a berth on the second string S. E. K. All-Stars. He also has completed his fourth year of service on the Dragon lineup. STEWART lstewl DAVIS 165 lbs. Quarterback Stewart, tall and fast, made a valuable backfield man. He car- ried the leather for big gains, and usually returned punts deep into the opponent's territory. He car- ried the ball considerably on fast end plays and usually picked up ground. He was another senioi' gridman who will be missed next year. JACK Uriah! HENDERSON 140 lbs. Right Guard Jack played a great game when in the line. He was light but possessed the fighting determina- tion and driving power that it takes to hold that line. His scrap- py Irish when aroused was a big pin in the punch of that purple line. This was Jack's first and last year on the gridiron. MELVIN JOSEPH 155 lbs. Left End Melvin playing left end for the Dragons was dubbed by sport writers sticky fingers because of his ability to pull those long passes from the air and carry them for big gains. He was for- ever in the fray stopping oppon- ents and was a great lineman. His driving power and assistance will be greatly missed next year. Melvin earned honorable mention for the S. E. K. BILL Urisl-0 McWlLLIAMS 150 lbs. Guard Bill, a fighting Irishman, played a good game in the line. He, al- though small, had the fire to stay and hold that line. His snap- py charge and driving determina- tion is one of the reasons plays had time to click and a big rea- son many of the opponents found disaster and defeat. Bill's foot- ball career is over for P. H. S. as he is also a senior. KENNETH FARNSWORTH 125 lbs. Halfhack Kenneth displayed a dashing type of ball on the gridiron thru- out the season. His fleet man- uevering when in possesion of the ball will be a valuable asset to the Purple and White eleven next year. CLARENCE CULBERTSON 150 lbs Center Clarence was that hard driving center who filled in as center so well. His punch added plenty of force to the middle of the line and helped many a game to vic- tory. He can be expected to do much for the Dragon eleven next Year. RAYMOND BROOKS 150 lbs. Halfback Raymond was another very use- ful man of the Gudgen crew. He played good ball at both halfback and end. He will get a better chance to demonstrate his true worth next year. RICHARD fDickl TINDEL 168 lbs. Left Tackle Richard's game at tackle earned for him a berth on the S. E. K. all-star team. He was a big item in the Purple line, hard to stop and almost a brick wall to get around. His force and endur- ance on the field pushed many H game to victory. He also has completed his high school football career. JAMES lButchl RITTER Co-Captain Elect 175 lbs. Center James, fighting center of the Gudgen eleven, was one of the co-captains elected for next year. His fighting force and bulldog determination was a very essent- ial cog in the Purple Crew's machine of success. He will be a very valuable man to P. H. S. next year. He received honorable mention for the S. E. K. All-Stars. LELAND quo MARSHALL 155 lbs. Rishi End Leland was that quiet curly headed lad who turned us so Sud- denly just behind the opponents lines to take those short snappy passes that he and Duck executed so neatly. He was fast and a nice pass receiver. His game was the inspiration of many. He re- ceived honorable mention for the S. E. K. All-Stars. As this was his senior year he will he greatly missed next season. EUGENE ENLOE 1 60 lbs. End Eugene was always on hand to enter the fray when called upon. Displaying a fighting type of p.ay that was hard to stop. Eugene was a valuable defensive end. Graduation will call Eugene this year leaving an end position hnrd to be filled. JOE KENNETT 140 lbs. Left End Joe was that fleet end who Dos- sessed both defensive and offen- sive ahility. He stopped many opponents seeking an opening around his end. Much can he ex- pected of Joe again next year. WILFRED fBudl ENSMAN 155 lbs. Halfhack Wilfred. during his high school career became known as the han- dyman , Proving himself versa- tile, he has filled regular positions as. both line and backfield man. Wilfred this year earned his third lang last letter in P. H. S. foot- a . JOHN Uohnnyl MILLER 215 lbs. Tackle I John was another hard charg- ing tackle. Using his weight to a good advantage, this big line- man Droved himself a plenty hard man to be taken out of a play. He has climaxed his P. H. S. career and will be missed next year. BOB BUSH 158 lbs. Right Guard . Bob was the other guard of the fighting eleven. He was small hut scrappy and added much punch to the line. His ability to hold that line gave his team those valuable few seconds in which to egcecute plays. This was Bob's first year out but it only took him a few weeks to prove himself capable of holding down a regular guard position. Here again grad- uation will end a fine player's high school football career. DEAN BRAND 160 lbs. Hllfback Dean was going in fine shape in the backfield when he received a broken ankle at Cherryvale. His ability as a sprinter was feared on the gridiron by his op- ponents. This was his last year of football for the Dragons. He received honorable mention for the S. E. K. All-Stars. JACK MORGAN 144 lbs. Quarterback Jack saw considerable action this season and played like a veteran. He has that punch and power to carry his team lo victory. Like his brother Bill, he is an ideal backfield man and has two more years in which to repeat his success of the past season. VANCE ROGERS 166 lbs. Halfback Vance, a promising sopho- more from Roosevelt Junior High, has two more years to display his prowess. However this husky lad gave an excel- lent account of himself this vear playing at halfback. If he continues this year's pace he will cause S. E. K. oppon- ents plenty of trouble his next TRUMAN TOELLER 165 lbs. Right Tackle Truman was that tall tackle who filled his position so well for a first year man. He played an excellent brnnd of ball this season and much may be expected of him for the next three seasons. He has the distinction of being the only freshman making n letter this Year. two years. Ui' 'ill Football The past grid season of 1934 was another true Dragon season. Second only to Chanute the Gudgen crew 'displayed a brand of football seldom seen on the gridiron of any high school. Led by Dennis Noor and Bill Morgan., co-captains, the boys in Purple and White won nine jousts and lost two, leaving them second in line for the S. E. K. gonfalon. Their hardships were many and opponents strong, but with spirits like gallant warriors and the guidance of our loyal Coach Prentice Gudgen, they proved them- selves to be very worthy of second place in the S. E. K. league. Proof of their abilities on the field is clearly shown in the fact that Pittsburg drove over the goal for 31 touchdowns, sixteen extra points, and one safety compared to six touchdowns and three extra points for their opponents 'during the season. This gave the Dragons an average of eighteen and six elevenths points per game compared to their opponents average of three and six elevenths points per game. It is with the highest esteem and elation that the achievements of this grid season are recorded.

His true eye figured him with scoring honors in many a game. This dashing forward will be greatly missed in the Hoffman crew's ranks next season. JACK LAMBERT 5 ft. 8 in.--Forward Jacn was a very 'dependable player. He could be counted upon to score in a crisis and hold his man to few points. His.game was one of earnestness and represented a fine brand of ball. He also has complet-ed his career at P. H. S. STEWART CStewJ DAVIS 6 ft. 1 in.-Guard Stew was that tall curly headed guard of the Dragon crew. He consistently dis- played a fine type of ball throughout the season. His ability of scoring from the field as well as his 'defensive tactics was a commendable asset to the Hoffman crew. He also is beckoned by graduation. JACK Uackiej MORGAN 5 ft. 10 in.-Guard Jack played a fine type of ball throughout the season. He possessed an accurate basket eye and was a good defensive guard. He will probably be a big pin in the Dragon crew the next two seasons. DENNIS fDuckl NOOR 6 ft. 4 in.-Center Duck was twice chosen for the S. E. K. All-Star basketeers. His favorite short shots and tin ins consistentlv pushed the Dragon Cagers score skyward. His defensive ability will be missed greatly next year as graduation calls. HENRY CHankj BITNER 5 ft. 8 in.-Guard Hank was one of the big reasons that the opposition failed to find scoring' op- portunities. His defensive ability was greatly commendable as well as his true basket shooting eye. Again the Dragon ranks will be -depleted by graduation. BILL MORGAN 6 ft. 3 in.-Forward Bill's defensive ability plus his accuracy on pivot shots, short shots, and tio ins earned for him the position of forward on the S. E. K. All-War squad this year. Here again a fine player has climaxe-d his high school career. Bill earned honorable men- tion at the State Tournament. ORVILLE BECK 5 ft. 8 in.-Guard Orville was that shiftv guard who despite a late start with the Purple Quintet gathered many honors and became an important cog in the Hoffman machine. His speed. offensive, an-d defensive abilities were great assets to his team. He is another of the Purple Cagers who will not return to the Dragon camp next year. ALBERT CSD SIMONCIC 6 lft. 2 in.-Guard Albert was another strong defensive guard, whose ability with the ball was a big help to the Cagers' score. He saw considerable action at the State Tournament. His style at Topeka promised a reliable cog for the Dragon machine for the seasons of 1936 and 1937. KENNETH GIRE 6 ft. 1 in.-Center Kenneth, although a sophomore, exhibited an unusually fine type of basketball throughout the Cage season. His height- and style on the court promised another good basketeer for next year. COACH FRANK CArkieJ HOFFMAN Coach Hoffman's tutelage proved to be of the best throughout the past season. His ability at producing winning teams was demonstrated by the fast breaking Dra- gon agers.

His pacing time promised a fast boy for next year in addition to his team laurels this season. JUDSON WAGGONER 440 Yards, Relay Judson, short but determined and fast, came through with needed points in the 440 yard 'dash and was also a dependable relay man. DONALD MORGAN Pole Vault, High Jumps Don was always on the big end of the points handed out for both t-he pole vault- tcrs and high jumps. He has another year of competition for Pittsburg High. PAUL SUMMEY 880 Yard, Mile Relay Paul is a 'dependable anchor man for the medley relay. He was always one of the first to tape in the 880 yard run. JOE KENNETT 440, 220 Yard Relay Joe was Pittsburg's premier 440 yard dash man, which he ran around 53 seconds. He also ran a leg on P'ittsburg's winning 880 yard relay team. STEWART DAVIS Weights, Relay Stewart was a reliable point gatherer in the weights and showed up in fine style on the relay team. He will be missed next year. MILTON GLENN Low Hurdles, 440 Relay Milton skimmed the low hurdles in record time and turned in an excellent time in the quarter mile. He has two more years of competition for P. H. S. BILL MORGAN 440, 220 Yard Relay Bill always paced his leg of the relay in excellent time. His sprint in the 440 and 220 yard 'dashes brough many a point for the Dragon's score. Here again a good trackster has terminated his high school career. WILFRED ENSMAN 220 Yard Relay Wilfred, although short, was a valuable relay man. He stepped off his leg of the relay in record time. Wilfred was one of the reasons of the team's success. GEORGE CANNON 440, 880 Yard Relay George was that dashing quarter and half mile cinder man of the Snodgrass Crew. His time ranged around 2:10 on the half mile. He will be a two year let-terman next year and a big stride in another successful season. MELVIN REMINGTON 440 Yard Dash, Relay Melvin is another fleet junior letterman of the suuad. Dashing over 440 yards of cinders in a little more than 54 seconds is his specialty. As a point collector Mcl- vin does his share. LELAND MARSHALL Pole Vault Leland defies gravitation as he goes through the air with the greatest of grace. Crossing the bar in the neighborhood of 1055. feet. he added his share to the Dragon's score. 'l DEAN BRAND, Co-Captain 100, 220 Dash Broad Jump Dean, senior letterman, came back this season with more dash than in the prel ceding two years. Strcaking over the 100 and 220 yard dashes plus sailing nearly 21 feet on the broad jump, he was one of the highest scoring men of the Pittsburg tracksters. ORVILLE BECK, Co-Captain Half-mile, 880 Yard Relay Orville. swift striding half miler and relav man, was another senior star point earner for the Purple and White track team. Pacing the half around 2:3 minutes he earned a place with the best in the S. E. K. League. DENNIS NOOR Sfhot, Javelin, Discus Duck was good for a triple count in every meet. Tossing the shot better than 44 feet, heaving the javelin around 153 feet, and sailing the discus in the neighbor- hood of 114 feet he scored heavily for the Dragon Crew. This completes Duck's three year t-rack service. MARSHALL CHAMBERS Pole Vault Marshall specialized in the pole vault. This was a specialty which helped greatly in the Dragon's success. He is expected to shine again next year. COACH F. M. SNODGRASS Coach Snodgrass has piloted the Dragon tracksteers through their fourth conse- cutive successful year. Snodgrass held the state half m'le record under college com- petition for several years, and true to form the Pittsburg crew reflects his guidance.

The printing department of the high school, which prints the Boost-er, is under the super- vision of Mr. John E. White. The journalism students were chosen in their junior year. This year there were 26 chosen to be in the journalism class. A new plan was tried this year. Instead of students choosing the staff of the Booster, Mr. Heady selected the staff after he had observed their work for two or three weeks. Leo Howard was chosen as editor of the Booster for the first semester. Helen Marchbanks was chosen as editor of the Booster for the second semester. The journalism students covered a complete journalistic course this year. This included make-up, head line writing, the human interest story, the news story, the edi- torial, the interview, proof reading, copy reading, and ad-chasing. Quill and Scroll The Quill and Scroll is an international honorary society for high school journal- ists. It was founded at the University of Iowa, April 10, 1926, and was organized in the Pittsburg Senior High School in 1927 by Miss Laura J. Finley, Journalism instruc- tor at that time. The purpose of the Quill and Scroll is to instill in the students the ideal of schol- arship, to advance the standards of the profession of journalism by developing better journalists and by inculcating a higher code of ethics to promote clear and forceful writing. The Pittsburg High Chapter has now nearly a hundred members. Mr. Ray Heady, the journalism instructor, chose the members of the Quill and Scroll. There were nine members of the journalism class to receive a place on the Quill and Scroll.

Resolved: That the federal government should adopt the policy of equal- izing educational opportunities throughout the nation by means of annual grants to the several states for public elementary and secondary education, was a de- bating subject that held the interest of the largest group of debaters in the his- tory of the high school and also many other students and outsiders. The question is one that is discussed by most everyone and one which offers splendid possibilities for heated arguments. The credit for the record made by these debaters is given to Mr. William H Row who has shown remarkable ability as their coach. These debaters met 18 different towns from 3 different- states during the season.

The Pep Club's purpose is to foster school spirit and pep while rendering the greatest amount of service. The teams did so much better this year with the support of the student body, under the leadership of the Pep Club. The Pep Club this year had sweaters with Purple Dragons on the front.

The Leaders' Club The Leader's Club was an organization sponsored by Mr. F. M. Snod- grass. Its work was about the same as the manager systems of the colleges and universities. The boys were first selected for their knowledge of sports, their ability to officiate in all types of games, and their willingness t-o serve after school hours. Their main duties throughout this school year were to help organize, offi- ciate the contests, make correct reports to both school and city papers of all intramural activities. Their first duty was to make a complete schedule for the seven grade school's armory ball and 'basketball league. Then in May they had charge of a track meet for these schools. Their next and probably their biggest duty was to organize, advertise and conduct a 24-team, single round intramural basketball league for the Senior high school. Other duties which they efficiently handled were an all school horse-shoe, tennis, ping pong, and armory ball tournament. They very efficiently managed the Pittsburg Invitation Track and Field Meet held April 5 on the Brandenburg Field. The name of this organization will probably be changed next year to the i'Athletic Manager System . The past intramural season has proven itself to be the best on record in. Pittsburg high. 1 l I l l l l o i I First Row across: Mr. Heady, sponsor, Giovina Bosco, Eula Sipes, Bob Nevin. Second Row: Helen Marchbanks. Lorene Gaines.

Frederic, when a boy, was to have been apprenticed to a pilot until his twenty!-first year. His nursemaid, Ruth, through a misunderstanding, bound him out to one of the pirates of Penzance, who were noted for their gentleness and who never harmed orphans, because they themselves were orphans. The pirates are making merry because Frederic is going to leave. Just as he is going Ruth asks him to marry her and since she is the only woman he has seen he consents. Shortly after he meets the daughters of General Stanley and falls in love with Mabel, the youngest daughter. The pirates encounter the girls and propose to them. But the General appears upon the scene and says that he is an orphan and they abandon their matrimonial plots and permit t-he girls to go. ACT II. In the second act the General is surrounded by his daughters and lamenting that he deceived the pirates. Frederic bids Mabel farewell since he is heading an expedition to disperse the pirate band. Mabel leaves him and while he is alone the Pirate King and Ruth visit him and show him his papers of indenture in which it is stated that he is bound to the pirates until his twenty-first birth- day. His birthday being the twenty-ninth of February he returns to the Pirates. When he tells the pirates how the General has deceived them the Pirates become so enraged that they swear revenge. They come to carry off the General in a night attack but are overpowered by the police. The Pirates then confess that they are all English noblemen. They are released and allowed to marry tho General's daughters and Frederic is released and allowed to marry Mabel. C 1... UI 1 1 fl :A W c: .1 U -G ui 1: 2, 41 ilbert, la W S : is C J f.

Tommy Mills and Marie Thurber, very much in love, cannot get married because Marie refuses to be ordered around by her parents who are determined that she will marry Tommy who has ingratiated himself to Mr. and Mfrs. Thurber by helping Mr. Thurber with cross-word puzzles and keeping Mrs. Thurber supplied with candy. By their very insistence upon the suitability of Tommy as a husband for Marie, she is almost driven into a runaway marriage with Bernard, a young man with a great amount of self-esteem. However, Marie's Uncle David comes to the aid of the young lovers by convincing Tommy that if he could get Marie's parents against him he would have a better chance of winning Marie for a wife. He tells Bernard to get on the good side of Mr. and Mrs. Thurber. When he tells Mr. Thurber that Tommy has sold a piece of land to the city, in- stead of allowing Thurber to make a profit, Marie at first comes to his defense, but turns against him once more when she learns it is true. David finally convinces Marie that Tommy would make a better husband than Bernard, and when Tommy announces his intentions of leaving, she decides t-o elope with him. David then discloses that Tommy had allowed his land to be sold to the city for a small profit in order that Mr. Thurber's land can be sold to an airplane company at a greater profit. This reinstates Tommy in Mr. and Mrs Thurber's estimation and a happy ending is reached. COME SEVEN JUNIOR PLAY WHITE CAST Urias Negbit ,,,,,,4,,,,,,,,,,.,,........ ....

Florian Slappey has a plan by which Urias and he can make three hundred dol- lars. The plan is to borrow money on Elzevir's ring from Semore Mashby, a tight money lender, and substitute a fake one in its place. Ellzevir discovers the fake and thinking her ring stolen, calls Probable Huff, a detective. Florianfs plan works and he calls to redeem the ring, only to find Semore has given it to Vistar Goins for an engagement ring. Elzevir who recognizes her ring, changes it for the fake. Vistar discovers it is a fake and breaks the engagement. Semore cannot give back the real diamond, so he agrees to buy one and marry Lithia Blevins or pay Florian five thousand dollars. Florian buys another real diamond to take the place of E.lzevir's. Elzevir fin- ally gets both rings and two hundred dollars profit. Florian is engaged to Vistar, Semore to Lithia and when at the end Urias and Florian are shooting for the one hun- dred dollars that Elzevir forgot. 0 Ujif, M22 iirfii Wav - - THANK YOU, DOCTOR DRAMATICS Cast of Characters Mrs. Lester ..............

John explains to her that it had formerly been the Plumfield school for boys. As he recalls some of the happenings of the school, they un- fold before them. Among some of the adventures of Plumfield school Nat comes to live with them. He has a habit of telling lies and when some money is stolen he is ac- cused. Daisy is the only one who believes he is innocent, and some heart ren- dering scenes ensue. All ends happily when Jack confesses. The children put on a Christmas play amid much fun and merry making. This is followed by much pathos when Dick, the hunchback, dies. Nan, a tomboy, visits the school and many charming scenes are enacted when she and Dan become enamored with each other. Shirley, enraptured with the house, to the joy of everyone concerned ac- cepts John. Much of the success of the play was due to the expert coaching of Miss Dorothy McPherson and Miss Sara Stephens. It was give n November 16, 1934. REBECCA OF SUN NYBROOK FARM' ' SENIOR PLAY Characters Miranda Sawyer--Shirley Jean Smith Jane Sawyer --Dorothy Jane Wilson Mrs. Perkins ....

The mother of Rebecca Rowena Randall of Sunnybrook Farm is burdened with a large family and a mortgage. She is much relieved when her rich rela- tives, Aunts Miranda and Jane, offer to take Rebecca off her hands to train and educate her. Rebecca arrives on Cobb's stage coach in all of her meager finiery only to find that she has arrived a day too soon and her Aunts are at a missionary meet- ing. When the Aunt-s do come home, they find Rebecca and some children, Emma Jane, Clara Belle, Minnie Smellie, and Alice Robinson, making a bedlam of her premises. Rebecca is sent to her room. 'When everything is quiet, she climbs out of the window and runs away to Cobb's house, but returns at his sly suggestion. The children try selling soap for a premium for the Simpsons. Mr. Ladd buys all the soap and becomes Rebecca's friend. When she graduates from High School, Ladd promises to wait for Rebecca. Another love scene is woven in the plot between Abijah and Emma Jane. Comedy is furnished by the timid, droll, Mrs. Simpson and the cringing Mr. Simpson. Cobb's fatherly attentions win the heart of everyone while the children's escapades touch the funny-bone of young and old.

This page is dedicated in memory of two young men, who were students of our school, and if they had lived, would be members of the Graduating Class of 1935. Carl Bousfield was born February 9th, 1917, at Arma, Kansas. He was stricken with typhoid fever on November 9th, 1933, and died on November 26th, 1933. Carl made his home with his Grandmother, Mrs. Alice Birdsell at her home at 7th and Elm, Pittsburg, Kansas, who since has joined Carl in that ever- last-ing home. Carl was employed by the Pure Delite Ice Cream Company and was faithful in his work and well respected by all who knew or was associated with him in his work. He had a genial and cheerful disposition, always ready to serve others in any way he could. I-Ie was very popular in school an-d held in the highest esteem by both teachers and students and was manifest by the fact that- the First Presbyterian Church was crowded with young people on the day of the funeral. Carl's greatest ambition was that he might get his education and fill a place of leadership and thus brlng honor and happiness to his Grandmother, Aunt and Uncle with whom he made his home. The lives of many are richer because Carl's life touched theirs and left that great influence that comes from a true personality. PFPIUIUK Albert Sears was born in Pittsburg, May 18, 1918. He attended St. Mary's School and later entered the Pittsburg High School. Albert was not able to attend school regularly on account of illness for he did not have a rugged consti- tution. He was taken ill and sent to St. Mary's Hospital, Kansas City, where he died December 6, 1933. Albert won a great place in the friendship of those with whom he was asso- ciatecl. He was of a quiet disposition, which always showed his genuine quali- ties. He was very patient, cheerful, and showed a great interest in his home and family. He wanted to live and get an education that he might fill a place of service in the world, He always found a way to express his genuine appreciation for any favor or kindness shown to him. This was shown by the letters that he wrote to the students in his home room and his classes when they remembered him in the hospital with a post card shower and with a basket of apples. We can best express our feeling when we say with the poet- Cl-lo Kziow Hinl Was To Love Him. J, Life's race well run Life's work well done, Life's crown well won, Now comes rest.
