HeIon Coon FHRO:?ZBCY In the dim and distant futuro, ten years after the senior class of 1936 graduated from The Plains High School, it stems evident that Reno Haines has achieved hi3 ambition, that of a rancher. He •..•as sitting on the veranda of his ranch house in Te:;as with his rife the late Eleanor Rutter, and the house maid Donna Shafer, when one of his cowboys comes tearing in off the range and reported that the herd which was left in the North pasture had been stolen by the Notorious rustlers, Paul Gould and Charles Nelson, Reno hurried to the corral and saddled his horse while his foreman Arthur McDonald roused the cowboys, Paul Horn, Victor Deckle, Clyde Perry, and Bryson Russell informing them of the rustling. Thoy wore ready to “-leave when in off the ran e, Helen Kostival, a -performer in Cole Brothers Circus, came rid- ing to seek hospitality from the ranch owner until she could got back to her company from which she had been los while on location in a nearby town. She informed them that Margaret Powell had become a groat singer with the Metropolitan Opera Company and was to give a recital that evening in the town from which she had just come. Some of Reno's friends, also members of the class of 1936 of The Plains High School, wrote to him asking if they could soend their summer vacation on his ranch. Among them war Shir-- ley Buffington, president of Harvard University, ’hen Shirley arrived ho 3aid that William Channcll was a bell boy in a hotel in St. Louis where ho had spor.t the night. Another guest was Katherine Varner, a well known poot. Phrophocy con't f Tho30 friends ge.thorod on the voranda aftoi’ the ovenin ? noal. and bo an talking about their high school days, each one tolling the carcor 3ono classmate had chosen of which he know, Shirlcv said that the proprietor of the hotel whore ho had spent the night v as Alfrod Gabriel and his wife was Paul no Potts. Kath- erine informed them that Lois Douglas and Evolyn McDonald were joint oy nors of a boa''ty 3alon which she frequently patronized. Dale Gold3bcrry was tho capta.in of a s toamship which Shirley and thorino decided to take back up the coast to their homes. V hilo on the ship they met Joe Manda who had been to Texas to try to sell some lumber from his lumber camp in Maine Back on tho ranen in Texas, Reno picked up a newspaper and started iO read. The first page he lookod at was the sport page and an item which caught his eye was a roport of a nrofcssio'al football game in which Doan and Dow Nida had starred Reno finally decided to end the day v ith a radio program and the first name lie heard wa3 that of Mary Armbrustcr who provided the jokes for the program. CLASS POEM We are parting at last Our school days are o'er. There will be no more lessons A3 in days of yore. There will be no more parties, No ball games, no fun. There will be no more track For our races are run. We're sorry we're parting, And our friends we must leave. For we'll never find others No more friends like these. We'll go toiling along Over life's weary road. And there will be no one To lighten our load. We are saying goodbye. To the best friends we've had. For they've cheered us along Made us happy and glad. 'Ti3 the last of our schooldays Happiest time of our life. We are on our way out To toil and to strife. . H. S. So goodbye, F 0 leave you forever. As we journey through life We'll forget you. No, never I --Margaret Bricker SCHOOLDAY FRIENDSHIPS What is it that I miss so much When I close my books for 'aye? What is it--though it's value's groat That makes me want to cry? Why do I have such misty eyes And why do I tremble so? Why does the Damp come in my throat? If only I could know I Can It be that old brick school house Or the knife-carved desks therein? Can it be some of my schoolmates, Or my best pal and my friends? One-and all—the joys of school days The kids I can’t forget. The trackmoots, games, and programs They linger with mo yet, Down the path of life I've wandored Made new friends-and good friends too. But the old friends made at P. H. S. Mean far more than the new. May these friendships last forever. May I follow this one rule-- To treasure always in my memory My friends of The Plains High School' ---Katherine Varner J is for U is for N is for ii j n is for 0 is f or I.R i s for C is for L is for A” is for S is for S is for FOR WHAT WE STAND Justice, which v c highly esteem Unity, v c work like a team.

THE JUNIOR PLAY The Juniors late in their sophomore year had been planning a Junior play. During vacation Miss Diver, who was to direct it, searched for a suitable play. When school began in September she had chosen the four act comedy, Whimsy . The story centered around the W. Y. W. (Work Your Way) club of a small college, under tho leadership of Jack Marshall. Jack was accused of stealing examination papers. Oily Denning shamed by Whimsy's taking the blame, confessed that he himself, y ith his friend, had taken tho papers. Each student enacted a role. The cast was as follows: Whim3y—Bill Hawk Rosalind Saunders, his swccthcart--Eudora Stauffer Jack Marshall, loader of W. Y.

BOYS BASKETBALL 1935-1036 The basketball team this year started with only two r ;gu ■ Charlie Nelson, forward, and Alfred Gabriel, guard. Prom angle it looked as though The Plains High School would put a weak team on the floor this year. Desnite this fact the boys developed into a strong team and had a very successful season, since they won the Athens County Basketball Championship , and ranked fourth in the District Tournament held at Chillicothe The captain oi the team was Charlie Nelson, a senior who played the position of forward. Charlie was a good defensive player and also a great offensive player who was able to score from all angles of the floor. Since he was high score man throughout the season his place on the team will be a hard one to fill. Alfred Gabriel, a guard, was a very good defensive man who minded his own affairs and let the rest of the boys do his share of the shooting. As a running mate to A1 we have John Coley, a sophomore, who played his first year as a regular. John was a good man on the defense and was also an effective shot. John Krfve i, another sophomore, played center the first semester, but was shifted to forward when Paul Horn was declared eligible at the beginning of the second semester. John was a very good shot with his left,hand, but was very bashful and didn't shoot often. However he played in the tournament and scored several points. Now we come to the big boy of the team, Paul Horn, the center. Paul generally controlled the tipoff, bringing many advantages to the team. He was of special value in getting • '■-■r. the ball from the basket and was also a good shot close to the basket. The substitutes who saw plenty 0f action v ere John Manda, Leslie Coon Jr., Joe Manda, Ted Stillwell, and Bob Nelson- Joe is a senior this year but much can be expected from the other next year. The team during the season's play was defeated by Albany, Buchtel, and Chauncey-Dover. In the County Tournament The Plains drew nmes-Bern, one of the favored teams to win the tournament, for the beginning game. Both teams played very carefully and very skillfully, but The Plains walked ahead in the last quarter to win 20-14. The second gaihe thoylwalkod over the Lodi team 40-12. The semi-finals found Tho Plains matched against Albany, a very keen rival who had earned the right to play by defeating Greens-Run. The Plains defeated them by a score of 29-21. Charlie Nelson made a total of 21 points which was as many points as tho Albany team as a whole made. The final gamo found Tho Plains and Buchtel playing for the championship. Tho game was very closely contested until The Plains late in the last quarter forged ahead to win 33-19. Thus The Plains brought hone the championship and the trophy for the first time since 1926� The next week end, along with Buchtel, Chaunccy, Glouatcr, and Jacksonvillc-Trimble, from Athens County, The Plains played in the district tournament at Chilliootho. The Plains mot Crooksville in the first game, and led by Charlie Nelson, defeated them by a score of 42-26. The second game was played by The Plains and Laurelville, the Hocking County champion team, and again our boys brought homo a victory. Thi3 time the score was 45-23. Tho next afternoon in the semi- finals The Plains met and wore defeated by Glenford, the Perry County Champs. The score was 35-26. although they lost in this game ihe Plains had ono more game to play. This wa3 the consolation game with Buckskin, a Ross County team which had been defeated by Leesburg in the semi-finals. This, too, was a close game, but Buckskin finally won 30-34 in the closing minutes of the game. This game ended the 1936 season and left The Plains standing fourth in this district which is a very fine rating for so small'.a scho .l. The boys who received 11 Champion ship letters for their sorivees in a special assembly held April 20 were as follows: Charles Nelson, Paul Horn, Alfred Gabriel, Joe Manda, John Coley, John Krivosti, Tod Stillwell, Bob Nelson, and Dow Nida, manager. Although three regulars are lost by graduation, tho prospects arc very bright for a good team next season, and we all hope that The Plainsb rings homo the cup again next year. thh pluas gihljg gagubt ball t:u: The Girl's Baohot I3o.ll toast too or30.nl -,c£ early in the fall ter: .
