In at least twenty regular meetings and numerous special meetings each year, these men meet around the table in their office as you see them here. Every phase of our school life is carefully considered by them. They receive reports from the Captain and know the course and the latitude of our ship at all times. The volume of school business transacted by them each year is much greater than the casual observer thinks that it is. They have been praised onrl complimented by the county superintendent, the state high school inspector, and the auditors for the neat and accurate records which they keep. They appear happy in this pictureg perhaps they realize that their efforts have not been spent in vain as they review our successful voyage. ln grateful remembrance and high esteem do we, the Senior Class of l939, dedicate this page to our efficient school board. Page Twelve IRA E. WELKER, Ph. B., B.S,, M.S. SUPERINTENDENT As our ship approaches the harbor, we can truthfully say that this has been a great school year. I have never seen teachers and students work harder. I am truly grateful for the fine school spirit that has prevailed. The presence of such a spirit has helped us to meet every storm and has saved us from shipwreck. This has been the most outstanding and successful school year that l have ever witnessed. By your cooperation the Captain will guide our ship into Com- mencement Harbor on May l9, l939. The seniors will tell us goodbye and will sail with us no more. A little lump comes in our throat and o tear in our eye. for it is sometimes difficult to say farewell. l want to take this opportunity to thank the senior class for their friendship, loyality, and also to congratulate them on producing this remarkable annual which so beauti- fully portrays our school life in R.

Mable Christy won third place in a scholarship contest at Pittsburg in geometry. We placed five of our boys on the football team, two on the first team of basketball, and six on the second team., Another high light in our second year at Riverton High School was the Electron Queen contest in which we elected Fern Augustus as our representative. Fifty-,three members of the class returned in the fall of l937 to begin their junior year at Riverton High School. Our class officers were-'Rosa Mae Winfrey, president, Rebecca Taber, vice-president, and Fritz Lyscio, secretory. We chose Miss Board and Mr. Chaney as our class sponsors.

We placed three members on our champion basketball team, four members on the B championship team, five members on our volley ball team which won the Mo-Kan League tournament. We placed four members on the championship baseball team and seven of our members went out for track. Our class play, His Ozark Cousin, was presented April l. Betty Lou Stempke was our class queen. ln May our year's work was climaxed by a- banquet given in honor of the seniors. The banquet carried out the theme of' sailing. We began our senior year with forty-seven members. Our officers were chosen as follows: Waldon McCoy, president, Josephine Messer, vice-president, Marjorie Lee Dardenne, secre- tary, LaVaughn Fulwiler, treasurer. We again chose those very capable sponsors, Miss Board and Mr. Chaney. Leah Jean' Williams and Marvin Brown were elected cheer leaders of the high school.

During our voyage, we encountered rough seas at Freshman lnitiation and Semester Exam- ination reefs, but after these dangers were passed, our officers and passengers enjoyed many happy hours on the deck by participating in the ship's musical programs os: orchestra, band, glee clubs, and drum corps. Our soprano soloist, Geneva Lengquist, was given' first place in vocal contests held aboard ship. Several of the passengers showed dramatic talent in the mafor 1 1 Page Twenty-seven 11 5 si as t it We Q Q A W. W Class History iii production, A Scream in the Dark. Afteriq-r'i'ine months of sailing, we landed safely in l Sophomore Bay for a brief period to take on ,fuel and overhaul our vessel in preparation ,for further voyages. V' QQZQ August 30, l937, our ship sailed proudly out of the bay into the high seas in quest of more knowledge. For thisi voyage, we had selected Miss Stairrett and Mr. Barnes to serve as pilots, Bob Lowther captain, Jim Wooten, co-captain, Lola Mae McClure, ship's recorder, Virginia 'X Byrd, ship's purser. On this trip the passengers again enjoyed the ship's orchestra, band, drum corps, glee clubs, and as recreational enioyment, our passengers joined in the sports provided as: football, bas- ketball, and volley ball. The dramatic production, Cyclone Sally, was the outstanding event of this voyage. We landed safely in Junior Harbor where we were dry docked for repairs. On September 6, l938, after all necessary repairs had been made and our ship had been refueled, we set off on the third and more hazardous lap of our voyage. For this trip out we selected Miss Stairrett and Mr. Rankin as pilots, Barbara Dardenne, captain, James Wooten, co-captain, Irene Oliver, ship's recorder and purser. Before we were many days out, one of our most dependable men, Bob Podgorny, was lost at sea. We did not give up the voyage, but resolved to follow the high ideals and ambitions that he had placed before us to Keep on Keeping On. As our seniority increased, so did our interest on board ship. For on this trip we furnished many members for the orchestra, boys' glee club, girls' glee club, band, drum corps, football, basketball, volley ball, baseball, track, scholarship contests, and music contests. Three of our member's names--Mona Clare Gibson, Harold Lyons, and Dean Shirley-were placed on the ship's honor roll. . The chief dramatic entertainment of this voyage was our play, Mama's Baby Boy. Six bells and the Junior-Senior banquet was served to the retiring members, the seniors, and now our ship is again dry docked and ready for its major voyage to Senior Island.

Neither the widower nor the widow has a cent, both having lost their money in the stock market. This situation leads to no end of amusing com- plications, when each party tries to keep the knowledge of his losses from the other, also the real ages of their respective offspring. The boy's grandmother also odds to the fun by ap- pearing in a ridiculously youthful costume and when his friends see him dressed in his youth- ful attire they too, dress up in youthful fashion to tease him. The craze for appearing youth- ful even spreads to the colored maid in the household, who appears ready to serve the dinner, dressed as a child of six. Everyone gets himself in hot water in these situations, especially when the deception on both sides is discovered. All of the difficulties are eventually worked out and a portion of the losses of both widow and widower is restored and not only thei widow and widower decide to marry, but also another romance is hatched up between Shephard and Juliet.

Sophomore Class History We entered the Riverton Polytechnic Institution, early in September, l937, as cadets, and began the preliminary training of midshipmen with Clyde Bond as captainp Walton Jarrett as first mate, Carmillittia Still as second mate, and Mr, Sanborn as admiral. September 6 the upperclassmen informed Captain Bond that it would be necessary for us to show a certain proficiency in the art of sailing before we would be allowed to join their fleet. ' They introduced each of us individually to their group and gave us a much dreaded examination, that we passed to their satisfaction. They awarded us by entertaining us and serving the en- tire school to delicious ice-cold watermelon. We then had forty-eight, new, full-pledged cadets, enlisted in our training corps, from these forty-eight cadets we were abundantly supplied with talent for the many extra-curricular, Thirty-two If HD fb' fm I f S Xxx i QT Il DIC! .J 'x t lc Sophomore Class History organized activities Eleven girls and twelve boys were in the glee clubs twelve members in the orchestra eight in the drum corps three in the band one on the debate team, one in the string quartet and two soloists Reba Winfrey our clarinet soloist won third place and Bill McQunnn violin soloist won second in the Mo Kan League Contest at Arcadia Our class play entitled A Case of Suspension enabled us to display some of our talents othen than sailing the rough seas Reba Winfrey was our class queen After spending many pleasant hours In our class rooms we passed our final examinations and were given our leave of absence until the following September Starting our second year of training with Mrs Rankin as compass Coach Laughlin as sexton, Roy Derfelt as captain, Ruth Blanchard as first mate, and Mildred Gibson as second mate, we began another very interesting voyage. The year was opened by an all-class party held at Dordenne's swimming pool to celebrate the entering of our new cadets. After attending this formality we set sail with a grand and glorious class party. Traveling at a speed of about twenty knots per hour things began to happen and happen fast. Football season opened and as eight of our boys were football players, they began practicing and two of themtmade the fleet's team. The crew decided that it would be only fitting and proper to use the ship's lovely improved auditorium for a dramatic production, accordingly we selected ,FA i l i zffgfi l . list? -f ,Q lr I 5? f an f ' Y- ' Q' ' V N.

Twelve: of our very capable members under the direction of Mrs, Rankin presented it to a large and' appreciative audience on the night of January 26, 1939. While this production was under way three of our members were chosen to represent our ship inatht fleet's one-act play contest which ranked third in the league. With the opening of the two sports, basketball and volley ball, several of our talented mem- hers, after much hard work, were honored by being placed on the teams. Clyde Bond, our fast moving guard, not only made the first team but also the all-star team. William Cairns, Charles Sandford, Fred Carnahan, and Roy Derfelt made the second team, the first two made the all- stor team. Kathleen Lee and Ruth Blanchard made the volley ball team. We are proud of the fact that we have several boys and girls in the glee clubs, twelve in orchestra, and eight in band. Helen June Watkins represented our class on the debate team. Reba Winfrey represent- ed the class in girls' quartet, William Cairns' and Walter Barnett represented the group in the boys' quartet. Our scholastic ability was very high as Mildred Gibson, Reba Winfrey, and Glenn Hardy made the semester honor roll. Eleanor Richards and Walter Barnett, our cheer leaders did much to instill pep into our crew. Several of our members participated in track and baseball in which we had a very success- ful season. Some of our crew entered the scholarship contest at Pittsburg. After weathering the rough sailing of final examinations, we sailed into port and were given our leave of ab- sence for another three months. 1 Page Thirty-three iw- . iw., 1 ',f'f-.e .' .- -3.

As she was to get under way early, seventy-nine freshmen made their appearance on the dock, in full sea-rig, to sign up for a one-year cruise to the Isles of Education. After our duties had been assigned, we employed ourselves in preparation for the sea by locating our lockers, and familiarizing ourselves with all parts of the vessel. September 6. A breeze having sprung up from the southward, we took our pilot, Miss Oliver, aboard, hoisted the sail, hove up our anchor, and shoved off for the open sea. September 14. Bob Dean was chosen captain, and lwe predictl he will make a most efficient commander. Earl Crane was selected for the office of' chief mate and will assist our captain. Mary Louise Wllgams wasuchosen as second mate and keeper of the ship's log. Stewards, Wil- liams, Dunkin, Colgrove,g, odson, Oliver, and Kirk were put in charge of the shipfs pantry. Ensigns McCorkle, Paxsonf Hutchings, and Hudson were assigned to entertainment duty. September 25. We have been enjoying a long spell of fine weather, the ship has been running smoothly, and very few of the crew have suffered from sea-sickness. October l2. We were awakened by the cry, Land ho l this morning, so we made for the shore and spent a pleasant day on the island. No treasure was found, but a supper cooked over a roaring camp fire was a welcome change from our usual fare- aboard ship. October 25. Today the vessel almost capsized while rounding Square Root Point at Algebra Bay. Only the stout hearts of the crew were responsible for saving the vessel. Our pilot has J--ll, warned us to beware of the danger of the reefs and shoals known as Punctuation Marks, Con- jugations, and lntransitive Verbs which lurk beneath the waters as we sail through the English Sea.

Then it was Yo, heave, ho! and with sails set, and pennants flying, we again put out to sea. January 12. Our pilot warned to prepare for bad weather, so we were not surprised to meet dark clouds, strong winds, and a raging gale as we rounded the rocky coasts of Semester Ex- amination lsland. A new experience was before us, and we worked feverishly to keep our craft above water. A few members were lost, but the storm was weathered, and we again took up our course. January Bl.

May I9. On this bright and sunny morning we sighted the home port which we had left ninglong months before. With fair wind and tide, we rounded-to the end of the wharf and let go our anchor, happy to greet our friends once more. Each sailor received as his share of the cargo four high school credits. So well satisfied is everyone with the results of the voyage that the crew members have signed up for another voyage, and will again be on hand ih September to answer the call Yo, heave, ho!

Rankin The Music Department of the Riverton High School is composed of the following organiza- tions: Orchestra, Band, Girls' Drum Corps, Girls' Glee Club, Boys' Glee Club, Mixed Chorus, and instrumental and vocal quartets. The department is maintained for the purpose of developing skill in the execution of the various technical difficulties that the student may confront on the instrument of his choice, and to enable the student to make proper use of his voice in the various vocal organizations. lt has been the objective of the Riverton High School to raise the standard of music and to develop a deeper appreciation for the finer things in music. Any activity, to be of value in itself and to justify its existence, must be of the highest possible standard. By singing, playing and studying worth while music, we learn to appreciate the efforts of others. Our aim is to have each musical group a functioning organiaztion, furnishing entertainment for the class plays, Parent Teachers' Meetings, Baccalaureate, and Commencement.

Q: Athletic Department H ' '- The important part of health is the happiness that it brings. There is nothing equal to robust health that gives loy and happiness to living. A person who is healthy, stands erect with his shoulders back and chin up, is ablento take adverse criticism and yet feel that life is really living. When IIDTC I l'l lil g Cir one is really healthy, he has the feeling that everybody is his friend, and that he would truly enjoy living on and on forever. W P LAUGH'-IN To be able to say, l feel fine, is one of the most satisfy- Cooch ing assets one can have. There is real icy, comfort, and happiness, in perfect health. The sure road to success and happiness is through hard work in games such aszwfootball, basketball, track, volleyball, ,., baseball, and other sports. A RAMBLER'S VERSION OF SUCCESS The father of Success is Work. The mother of Success is Ambition. The eldest son is Common Sense.

The Riverton Ramblers completed a very successful season in football this year. Several of the members of the team received praise through the Pittsburg Headlight, Sun, the Joplin Globe, and News Herald, and apparently are varsity timber if they go on to college. Waldon McCoy, fullback, Glenn Brooner, tackle, and Lloyd Lynch, guard were placed on the Mo-Kan all-star team of l938. Eight boys will be lost by graduation, They are McCoy, Captain, Lynch, Hulvey, Niles, Hodson, Brooner, Colgrove, and Lyscio. The only two games lost were to Cherokee County Community High School of the South East Kansas League, and West Mineral of the Mo-Kan League. The varsity included: Waldon McCoy and James Wooten, halfbacks, Don Hulvey, quarter- back, Charles Niles, fullback, Glenn Brooner, center, Warren Hodson and Bill Colgrove, ends, Fritz Lyscio and Dick Winfrey, tackles, Dean Shirley and Lloyd Lynch, guards. Lloyd French, Roy Derfelt, Walter Barnett were strong contenders for regular positions, and promise to be fine football timber for next year. Marvin Brown, a senior, made a letter. Other boys who reported to practice daily until the last of the season were Laurence Burr, Fred Carnahan, Earl Crane, Robert Kinion, Bob Lowther, Marion Mishler, Charles Sandford, Bill Williamson and Raymond Williamson. lt is difficult to make the regulars the first year. These boys know the game, and no doubt will give a good account of themselves next year.

Shall we surrender, and give up the fight Since they ascended the Heavenly height? Let their spirits answer the query of our soul. Keep on striving for the highest goal. Live for the good that you can da, And for the friends who are true to you, Let us find the answer in their lives- Kind, studious, dynamic, full of sacrifice. Honest, sincere, brave loyal and true, They now beckon to me and to you. Yes, keep on, don't quit-buckle down. The struggles may be hard but at last the crown. Boys, your example lives to enrich and inspire. You made us think of the beautiful, and you lifted us higher. We won't quit-We must fight-We will keep on.
