Washburn College English -1 ef-we H1 ,Abu BLUE JAY BITS AND BITES Here is the faculty of the Sabetha High, We hcpe that the memory of us will not die, We here struggled along the best that we could, And just a few praises will do us some good. F. C. Marks is superintendent of the school, He governs us by force and rule. He cannot type. swim or skate, But to school he is proud he has never been late. Next comes our principal, Victor C. Hiett, His only trouble is that of his diet, He has a dog Faust, of which he is proud, And into his car for a ride does he crowd. Anna Marie is so full of glee That one of our town boys has nabbed her, She can cook and can sew, and is rarin' to go, We can easily see why he grabbed her. Mr. Paul W. Barber is happy indeed, For with a car and Nellie what more does he need. He is a fine fellow and a jolly good teacher, We are wondering how soon it will end with a preacher Little but mighty is Nellie C. Nicholas, To say she is tall is surely ridiculous. We find her at work ready to do her will, And after school she's in the Oldsmobile. Our Social Science teacher as you all may know, Is none other than Mr. Ayrault. He works all day long and at night very late, For with a. wife and family, his duties are great. Miss Bernice Gorsuch in room No. 4 Teaches Latin and French down on the first floor. She has black curly hair and bewitching eyes To win her heart many a man tries. Out on the field we flnd little Chester, He is a good coach, teacher, and jester. He is happy go luckv and is full of fun, And many a game his teams have won. Lucille Hause teaches us how to say Our English language in the vera best way. The piano she plavs very good y ear. And speeds up and down in her car without fear. Since this is leap year, Miss Kathryn Scruggs thought, So a husband she got and off did she trot. They have changed the classes so that Miss Dubach Is taking Miss Slimm's place in the Study Hall. Slimm, Slimm, graceful, not thin, Charming, pleasant and neat as a pin. Yes, these are a. few of the requisite features Of one of the finest of study-hall teachers! To mention Miss Marshall we must not fail, For all day long she teaches the scale. Her duties are manv and with a smile they are done, And a great many friends thru' her work has she won. To the tune of the broom does Wayne Kimmel work, And never a day his job does he shirk, Sometimes he is happy, sometimes he is cross, We all must admit he'd make a good boss. This concludes the faculty of Sabetha High School, And they are responsible for many a rule. At times they seem cross and won't let you play, But you will be grateful to them someday.

The first of September in the year of Twenty-four Seventy-five children came to Sabetha's High Sch Prcfesso-r Marks with glances wide Said, You are welcome here, just step inside. The Profs were all a patient lot, Our frights and tremblings were soon forgot. With Jones, Bearg, Gravatte and Foster too, Our class moved on the whole year through. At the Hallowe'en party in the High School gym We joined the Sophomores with all our vim. The prettiest girl and the best looking boy From the Freshmen were chosen, much to our joy As Sc-phomo-res in the year of Twenty-five We chose Holland Lyons to preside, With Alderfer, Bearg and Lukert to assist, None could the class meetings e'er resist. At all football and basketball games in sight Watters and Lyons put up a good fight. To the Alpha Club many of our class did belong, Our boys and girls both were often heard in song. The Junior year was filled with problems thick, For our leaders, Fenner, Cave, Bearg and Myrick. Engaged by Wednesday, and the Land of Dolls, Gave fame and renown that to us was due. Yes, the Seniors we did entertain, For from having fun they could not refrain. The horns did toot and the .Serpentine flew, A jollier time no one ever knew. The years have flown 'till now 'tis twenty-eight, And here we are Seniors so sedate. Ayres, Weaver, Alderfer and Livengood, With Hiott and Cro-cker our trials understood. In debate, football, basketball and track You will find our class no numbers lack. The parts were well taken in the Senior play, And what can you say of our sneak day. AS we pass out through the High School door We bid farewell as others have before. May the Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors too, Bring honor and success to the White and Blue. ool door too, -Ruth Jackson. '--M -in I TWENTY-FIVE YEARS FROM NOW Twenty-five years ago, the senior class of 1928, started a circulating letter to which each member contributed his own prophecy.

Inn on a four-year journey. At the end of this pilgrimage, it seemed that they were to get a slip of paper signed by an Honorable Principal and an Honorable Superintendent, which would release them from such manual labor as pounding typewriter keys or playing with geometrical A B C blocks. This was explained to them at the Inn by high and mighty guides, called Seniors, Juniors, and So-phomores. It was also explained that the journey would be much longer if all rules, made by these wonderful guides and certain other high men seen on misty heights, were not obeyed. So the little Pilgrims plodded wearily on and 'on through algebraic equations and Eng- lish themes. Finally they became more courageous and elected these guides from their own people: Marjorie Burke, presidentg Velma Brougher, vice-president: Lois Kennedy, sec- retaryg and David Hooverscn, treasurer. After this, their courage grew and grew, until they became so bold as to mingle with the guides directly in front of them ith0Se called Ssphomoresh and have a party. This their first year of traveling was passed with rough roads at the end of every six weeks, a blizzard at the end of the first semester, and floods fof tears? at the end of the second semester. Oh! What a relief to be a Suphomo-reg How important it made one feel to be able to stand on the second step and look pityingly on those just starting their perilous journey! The second year of their journey was a voyage. This was a happy year for nearly all the pilgrims, for although the sea was sometimes rough it was not so tiring as walking and they had time to watch some of their lads and lassies become heros and heroines of the football field and basketball court. They quite forgot their discouragement and became in- interested in gazing with awe at their guides in the distance who prepared a carnival Junior- Senior reception. Right then the Pilgrims decided that the voyage should hold no social affairs for them until they had saved some money for their coming reception. In May, nineteen-hundred-twenty-seven, their ship came into port and they passed the second year milestone of their journey. Their crew fo-r that voyage were Carrie West, presidentg Wilbur Masheter, vice-president: Velma Brougher, secretaryg and Milton Lichty, treasurer. Now they are Juniors. Even though they are riding along quite smoothly in New Fords, prosperity has not struck them and they are working hard to earn money enough to entertain their Royal Highnesses, the Seniors. The drivers cf the Fords are Wilbur Masheter, presidentg Martha Fisher, vice-president, Mary Lanning, secretaryg and Mar- jorie Burke, treasurer. One hardship has befallen the Pilgrims this year. They have been divided into 'two groups, one commanded by Miss Hause and the other by Mr. Barber. These two groups met December 14, at the Barber Inn and Miss Hause's Pilgrims were entertained by Mr. Barbers Pilgrims. December 16, everyone stopped and rested while Miss Hause's Pil- grims gave a Christmas program. There are many plans for a play, a carnival, and the Junior-Senior reception. All the Pilgrims are striving hard so that they will be rulers of the kingdom on the last year of their journey and all have quite forgotten their former fear of high and mighty guides. -M. M. F.

We feel we have been sponsored by the best, Miss Hause, Miss Nicholas, Mr. Hiett, and Mr. Ayrault. Our class officers in the Freshman year were Robert Gravatte, president: Glenn Freeby, vice-president: Dorothy Bungard, secretary and treasurerg this year Viola, Weaver, president: Glenn Norrie, vice-president, Lucille Lichty, secretary and treasurer. As to athletics, the Sophomores would like to mention a few names of which they are proud: Jewell Lehnherr, Agnes Hennis, Alberta Hayden, William Leffler, Culver Moser, Glenn Norrie, Glenn Freeby, Novia Hedrick and last, but not least, our athletic High School Business Manager, Russel Vickery, is of our dignified class of 1930. Parties have been few, altho much enjoyed, especially the one in the beautiful country home of our class queen, Bertha Heikes. May we engrave on the pages of History in the next two years, more accomplishments worth while. 'I fri q. .l BLUE JAY FRESHMEN CLASS M. Bowker, H. Lukert, A. Moore, M. Riley, V. Root, H. Robinson, I.

These were known to the upper classmen and faculty as the Freshmen Class. Shortly after the cpening of school, the class met with Miss Gorsuch and Miss Scruggs, and elected the following officers: Everett Freeby, president, Nelda Kreitzer, vice-president, Oren Stoner, secretary-treasurer. On October 27, the Freshmen class went on a. hike at Albany Hill, they had for their guests, Miss Nicholas and Mr. Barber. They had for refreshments, weenies, buns and ice cream cones, and everyone had an enjoyable time. The class was represented on the football Held by Oren Stoner, Ross McDonald, Roy Rogers, and Everett Freeby, and on the basketball squad by Oren Stoner, Ross McDonald, and Everett Freeby. Nelda Kreitzer, Lila Stoner, Ines Carpenter, Ruth Heikes and Maxine Darby repre- sented the girls on the basketball squad. The class was also represented in the Glee Clubs, and Orchestra. The class hopes that all of its members will be back at the school building next Sep- tember to start together in the Sophomore Class. :ll I' N I 4 1 4 , Q 'wax 1 5 Ev . - il 'W 1 ' Q.

The High School Orchestra is an organization of lcng standing, the nrst efforts along that line having been made nearly ten years ago. The membership changes, but, because there are always some old members to help those who are new, a fine spirit of earnest en- deavor and hearty co-operation marks their work. The outside activities of the orches- tra include playing at churches, local dinners, and school theatricals. Last year they presented a public program which received favorable comments. Another such program is now in preparation. An additicn to the orchestra this year is a fine baritone horn, which instrument was purchased from the music fund and which therefore becomes the property of the school. The instrumentation of the orchestra is as follows: 5 nrst violinsg 4 second violinsg l clarinet, 2 flutes, 2 nrst trumpetsg 2 second trumpetsg 2 saxophonesg 1 baritoneg piano. -l 7 7'fff5lff'ffff w lil 'TA I-'L DL U E' J AY vi k :,. , ,I . fm 3 viii W Y e i Z4 GIRL RESERVE CABINET N.

At the first of the year a get-ac- quainted party was given, which was cleverly carried out in Captain Kidd style. On December 15, a Christmas Kid party was held in the gym.

Ayrault Purpose: Is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the School and Community, high standards of Christian Character. Slogan: Contagious Christian Character. The Hi-Y was organized in Sabetha High School in 1922, by Mr. C. A. McKinney, who sponsored the Club until the fall of 1924, when the present Sponsor assumed this responsi- bility. The privilege extended to all boys in school to attend the regular bi-weekly meetings of the Club, together with the attendance of some in the Annual State Hi-Y Conference, have helped to create a more wholesome influence, not only in S. H. S. but in the com- munity at large. The increased attendance from years to years indicates a growing interest among boys in the work of the Hi-Y. I would want no better recommendation. Many boys who have gone out from S. H. S. have paid their tribute to the religious influence of the Hi-Y in their lives. As time goes on, we want the Sabetha Hi-Y Club to become a more dynamic force in the School and Community. Let us add our word of appreciation for the support of : Mr. Hiett, Mr. Marks, Mr. Havley, and Mr. Barber. 'I - If: L. l , b e JAY, GIRLS' GLEE CLUB E. Bowman, I, Carpenter, O. Lichty, L. Lichty, M.

The only requirements for membership in the Girls' Glee Club is the ability to read music in the treble cleff. This fact made it possible for between forty and fifty girls of S. H. S. to become members of the organization. Their music consists mostly of two and three part work, both accompanied and a capellaf' and such technical details necessarily involved in the singing of such material. The girls of the Glee Clubs made up the per- sonnel of the choruses and were largely responsible for the success of the annual high school music comedy, All Aboard, which was presented in November. At present they are busily engaged in the preparation of My Maid on the Bamboo Screen, a. Chinese operetta, to be given in the near future. :nl -. fri Dive J,A:Y BOYS' GLEE CLUB J. Christine, H.

Ayers, N. Hedrick. Membership in the Boys' Glee Club is gained through a, series of voice try-outs. Any boy desiring membership may have a voice test involving quality, volume, range and read- ing ability. Such details give the director an idea of the boys' possibilities and enable her to put him at work on the part to which his voice is best adapted. This year's club has a. membership of twenty boys, who sing regular four-part harmony. At present they are working toward the 1928 District Contest with the sincere hope of surpassing their admirable record of last year, when they won second place. M55 es! SABETHAN STAFF H. Foster, M.

Because of a deiicit carried over from previous years The High School Sabethan has been forced to retrench this year. Instead of the usual bi-weekly newspaper, a small, but lively mimeographed paper of four pages was issued weekly during the,llrst semester. The copy was prepared as usual, by the journalism class, under the direction of Miss Nicholas, and the mechanical end of the Wo-rk was done by the advanced typewriting class, taught by Mr. Hiett. The second semester, through the courtesy of Mr. Chauncey Durst, a page of The Sa- betha Star was allowed the class each week, and the mimeographed paper was disczn- tinued. While the appearance of the paper can not, under the circumstances, be equal to that cf other years, yet this plan is not without its advantages. In this way the news is really news, because it is printed weekly. Then, tco, different members of the class have had a chance to try their hand at different positions on the editorial staff, an opportunity which could not well be given where more is at stake, as in the publication of a large paper.

Sabetha belongs to Class A, in District No. 1, Our debate teams also represent Sabetha in the Big Seven Conference. During the year 1927-1928 our debate teams contested with Troy, Atchison, Holton, Horton and Hiawatha. Out of a total of fifteen decisions in this series of debates Se- betha won nine. This is a splendid record when one c:nsiders that the teams were with- out previous experience. This placed our debate teams third in the Conference and third in the First District.

The three games that were lost were by small margins, the first being to Holton 6 to 0, the next to Atchison 13 to 0, the last to Horton 13 to 6. They played a scoreless tie with Troy, winners of the Big Seven Conference. At the first of the season there were only five letter men out, but Coach Havley soon had a team of them and the new material. At the close of the season there were 15 let- ters issued, three of these were to Seniors. The Seniors leaving are Smith, Watters, and Bearg. The team will feel the loss of these Seniors, but with 12 letter men left under the leadership of Capt.

BLUE JAY BE AN 0PTIMIST The Seniors wished to choose a play different from any other type of play that was given, so they chose Be An Optimist, which was presented April 25. Isaac Golditch has an antique shop in which Becky, his daughter, makes antique pic- tures. Pietro, an Italian, is one of his helpers while Mike is an all-around restorer. Mrs. Clinton, who is a fiend for antiques, has purchased an Egyptian mummy, which is broken in handling. Jimmie Maynard volunteers to act as mummy, in Mrs. Clinton's home dur- ing the Oriental Ball, as he is interested in Mrs. Clinton's daughter, Mildred. Mrs. Clin- ton thinks the mummy is so attractive. Jimmy has to eat cat meat, drink fish water, while Ray Hudson is making love to Mildred. At the Oriental Ball, Madam Goopher, a dispenser of spirits, gives Jimmie a chance to win Mrs. Clinton on his side, for he takes the floor from Madam Goopher and reveals the truth of Mrs. Clintons jealousy and while under the strain, she relents, making it possible for Jimmy to have Mildred. Harry Brougher was very unusual as a Jewish salesman, and George Ayers could not have been better. Roscoe Smith willingly suffered agony for the sake of the Seniors. The cast was: Isaac Golditch, Harry Brougherg Becky, Jeanne Gravatteg Pietro D'Angelo Caccialino, George Ayersg Jimmie Maynard, Roscoe Smith, Mildred Clinton, Edith Bockenstetteg Mrs. Clinton, Elaine Weaverg Mike, Virgil Henry, Ray Hudson, Harold Hennighg Miss Hull, Lorene Livengood, Maggie, Marian Arickg Ethel Peabody, Virginia Fenner, Madam Goopher, Helen Foster. Guests at the ball, Donna Durstine, Dolores Teague, Marie Lukert. There were specialties between acts, the first of which was given by five grade school children: Donna Hughes, Maxine Sheldon, Kathleen Burner, Catherine Masters, Marjorie Benson. Is She My Girl Friend? Fay Stoner, Helen Wright, Mildred Keim, Marie Lu- kert, Helena Ayers, Golda Diffenderfer, Kathryn Maynard, Helen Lanning. The last, Together, by Donna Durstine, Dolores Teague, Forrest Bearg and Lyle Myrick. USNEAK DAY The Seniors chose May l for the annual Sneak Day, and a nicer day could not have been had. It was a happy, jolly group of Seniors that met at the School House at 8 o'clock, to go for a whole day's lark. The majority of the class went to Topeka, some to St. Joseph, and a few to Kansas City. Those who went to Topeka met at Gage Park, and took in the scenery, then went to the capitol building where many climbed to the dome. After dinner, in cafeterias, restaurants, hotels, and various other places, some spent the afternoon in town seeing and attending theatres. Many visited the State Hospital and were taken through, while others went to the museum. A number of Seniors enjoyed the free elevator rides and took advantage of them, especially in the Santa Fe building. There were a few who did not get to go because of lack of cars, but all who did go had a good time and wished for another day off to rest up iespecially some who went to the dome.J -1 -A H1 WWA A JUNIOR-SENIOR RECEPTION A portion of New York City, called Greenwich Village, was moved to the high school gymnasium Friday night, April 27, when the Juniors entertained the Seniors with a ban- quet. Greenwich Village is an artists' colony, so the artists idea was carried out in decorations and program. The colors used throughout were orange and green with black trimming. For the banquet, quartet tables were used with table cloths of white bor- dered in orange and green. The favors were small artists dressed in green tams, orange smocks, and black trousers and bow-ties. They were standing at each place by a gold easel on which the menu was placed. Near the easel, with a small paint brush attached to it with orange ribbon, was a paint pot which served as the nut cup with the place card attached. The programs were orange colored paillettes, with splotches of paint on them. The centerpieces were miniature artists painting a landscape scene on an easel. Real artists dressed in orange smocks, green tams, black trousers and ties ably served the banquet. The food carried out the green and orange color scheme. D. Atherton's orchestra played during the banquet. The first number on the program, which came between courses, was a stunt dance called HoWdy! by six Junior High girls. Strokes of Welcome, was given by Wilbur Masheter, Junior president. The response, Finishing Touches, followed by George Ayers, Senior president. Dashes of Color, was a dance by the Junior high girls. Retrospection -the Senior Class History, was given by Bernice Alderfer. Martha Fisher gave the Senior Prophecy, called Introspection. Underclassmen who assisted on the program were Lahoma Williamson, Reine Rucker, and Elizabeth Bowman. , JUNIOR CARNIVAL This year in place of the usual junior play. the class voted to use a different method of increasing the size of their bank balance. On the evening of February 17, the halls and gymnasium of S. H. S. were turned into a carnival grounds for a few hours of festivlty and fun. Various class rooms were con- verted into show tents, the halls formed a. pike along which were arranged booths. It was from these that candy, pink lemonade, and novelties were dispensed. An Antique Shop, the inevitable fortune teller and his magic light that caused fortunes to appear on blank paper. The zoo had real animals in it, too. Carnivals are noted for their games of chance. Here the Fish Pond brought out the desires of many for luring the finny tribe from their haunts. In this case, however, the fish would not have met the orthodox anglers definition of the term. The flaming cheeks cf the girls and the desperate Desmond moustaches which ap- peared as lf by magic cn the boys attested the fact that the Beauty Parlor was well and frequently patronized. All carnivals have their free attractions. These usually precede the opening of the carnival attractions. But the Juniors decided to reverse the accepted order of things and as the evenings fun was drawing to a. close, the auditorium stage was the setting for a play, Tickets Please. In this appeared Martha Fisher, Velma Brougher, Carrie West and Delta Fletchall. Following the play came the auctioning of the boxes prepared for the box supper that ended the evening fun. The Juniors felt that this venture into something different was fun, interesting, and hope that their patrons enjoyed the evening as much as they did. 'I --.....: 1 - F E BLUE' JAY MY MAID ON THE BAMBOO SCREEN My Maid On the Bamboo Screen, was the name of the Chinese operetta chosen for presentation by the Gir1's Glee Club of Sabetha High School, on Friday, March 30, 1928. A three-act fantasy with an unique and bewildering plot, My Maid On the Bamboo Screen, was spectacular to see as well as interesting to hear. Much time and money was spent in order to make the production as Chinese as possible, and the results were most affective. Leading roles were taken by Lucille Cave and Jewell Lenherr as the Maids on the bamboo screen: Fay Stoner and Velma Brougher as the princessg Maude Alyce Trimble and Helen Beauchamp as the makers of dreams, Helen Foster as the Empressg and Laurel Ewing as the Emperor. Comedy roles were played by Beth Puff as Prime Minister and Lord High Executioner of the Court of China, and Martha and Mary Lanning, who played as chief nuisances. G. R. DAD AND DAUGHTER BANQUET The banquet held March 6, was a success from every standpoint. About eighty en- joyed the delicious dinner served by Miss Crocker's cooking class. The menu consisted of scalloped chicken, potatoes in half shell, creamed peas and carrots on timbales, white salad, brick ice cream and cake. The program was planned so that the initial letters spelled Our Dads. O-pportunity, Edith Bockenstetteg U-nity, Virginia Fenner, R-everence, Velma Broughterg D-ainty Steps, Dolores Teague and Lahoma Williamsong A-ttempt, Bernice Alderferg D-uet, Thelma Carpenter and Mr. Carpenter, S-astifaction, Mr. Rucker. These talks gave us a new light on why we should respect our dads. YEEM1:-Q p 5. ALL ABOARD Each year S. H. S. sponsors an all-school music comedy, proceeds from which go into the music found. On November 8, 1927, All Aboard, a screaming farce, was presented at Memorial Hall. Principal roles were interpreted by local talent entirely, while the chorus groups were filled by members of the glee clubs and others of the student body who were willing to contribute time and effort. The scenes of the play were laid on board the steamship Florida, and the plots dealt with the trials and tribulations of a collegiate who had lost two front teeth in a football game and was forced, to his chagrin, to wear false teeth in their stead. Billy Brady, the unfortunate youth, was played in capital style by Professor Barber. Johnny Thomas, his pal and erstwhile rival, was done by Carl Wyman. Virginia Fenner, as Beatrice Sloan, played extremely well as Billy's sweetheart. Helen Christine was chosen to play the role c-f Dorothy Brady, the sister and little helper of Billy. Mrs. Sloan, the mother of Beatrice, was a fairly difficult role, well done by Edith Carlson, Frank Porter, as Alex- ander C. Phome, a negro porter, and Inez Archer as a Swedish stewardess. Patrons commend the performance most highly, declaring it one of the very best ever given. Financial returns were highly satisfactorily. The play was given under the direc- tion of Miss Helene Mahoney, personal representative of the John B. Rogers Producing Co. IT HAPPENED IN JUNE It Happened In June, a three-act comedy was presented by the High School April 17. The cast was chosen from the entire school and coached by Mr. Garber. The play was indeed a comedy with a laugh in every line. The scene was laid in the home of Betty Branson, a young lady who owned the Shady Grove Store. Her mother had made arrangements with a wealthy eastern man to be a guardian to his wild young son, Charles Athens, but was suddenly taken sick and sent to Colorado. Before she left she laughingly turned the taming job over to Betty. Young Athens was the owner of the Norris Company, whose store in Shady Grove was managed by Jarvis Sneed, and offered quite a bit of competition for the Branson Store. In order to get Athens to come to Shady Grove, his uncle hires hm as the representative of the Norris Company to put the Shady Grove Store out of business. Charles, deciding he must have some diversion in this little country town, writes to Mrs. Branscn for the name of a snappy young girl. As Mr. Branson is in Colorado, Betty opens the letter and she and her girl friend, Susie Crundel, send him the name and address of Evalina Scoggs, the homeliest girl in town. Finally the gentleman arrives, bringing with him his friend, Bandy Stewart, who sells insurance. They are not much pleased with the prospects but are somewhat czinsoled by the cdors of the fine dinner Mollie Jesop, cook for the Bransons, has prepared. Their in- troduction is made somewhat embarassing by Nell Crundel, a. sixteen-year-old sister of Susie, who boldly asks the gentlemen which of them is the wild man. The first act ends with the tragical meeting of Evalina and Charlie, who are introduced by awkward Jim Prichett. Before the play ends Susie is engaged to Randy, and Betty and Charlie form a life partnership. The cast included: Betty Branson, Laurel Ewingg Susie Crundel, Martha Fisher, Nell Crundel, Melba Ewingg Mollie Jesup, Beth Puffy Evalina Scroggs, Helen Beauchampg Charles Atkins, Lyle Myrickg Randy Stewart, Russel Vickeryg Jim Prichett, Russel Miller: Jarvis Sneed, Milton Lichty. -il I -A lr- 4 1 THATS THAT That's That, a breezy musical comedy, was presented at the Memorial Hall, May 15, under the auspices of the Sabetha High School. Helene Mahoney, professional. director from the John B. Rogers Producing Co., of Fostoria, Ohio, had charge of the rehearsals. It was one of the most successful productions ever presented here because of its combina- tion of peppy fun, quick tempo dancing, pleasing melodies, and engaging plot. Scenes were laid in a hotel at Palm Beach, Florida. The plot was based onthe love affair of Kenneth Neilson, son of a wealthy bottle king, who while posing as a life guard under the name of Kenneth Jones, rescues and falls in love with Eloise Reswick, Florida society belle. Wishing to continue his romance under his assumed name, Kenneth did not reveal his true identity, and when his father and sister arrive at the beach, he manages to elude his father but is discovered by his sister. While embracing her he is discovered by Eloise, and being unable to explain matters, many complications set in which make a very fascinating story. A humorous side to the production was afforded by the romance of Eddie Dewey, a young farmer, who engages in Florida real estate business, with his former sweetheart, Letitia, from his home town and now a social climber, and-Martin Mooris, Kenneth's room-mate at college with Nannette, Kenneth's flirtatious sister. Martin is an avowed woman-hater, but when he meets Nanette, the tables change and he pre- sents his resignation to the Woman Hater's Union. Added to this and building up the comedy further, one Micky Sullivan and Mamie Remin, Bowery sweethearts, with all the characteristics of the proverbial East Siders arrived in Palm Beach to take in the sights. Principals were: Eloise Reswick, Nelle Williamson, Letitia Brownell, Helen Christine: Nanette Nielson, Virginia Fenner, Mrs. Suthweld, Melba Durstg Mamie Rimer, Margaret C01-wing Martin Morris, David Hoversong Mickey Sullivan, Robert Williams, John Nielson, Richard Saylorg Willie Hop, Dale Mishler. THE HI-Y CLUB The Sabetha Hi-Y this year has enjoyed the support of more boys than ever before. The number of boys actually signing membership cards is about the same as usual, but the average attendance has been better than in any previous year. The primary purpose of the Hi-Y is to deepen the spiritual life of the boys of S. H. S. and not to duplicate in any phase of its program, the work of the local churches. We trust that this ideal has been more fully realizeu this year than ever before. R. E. Ay- rault, sponsor. Officers this year are: President. . . .... .... V irgil Henry Vice-President .... ....
