X fk X :nmveas 'Q hree LI THE SUNFLOWER OF l923E1f.fq THE TRAIL By Waldo Crippen There was once a place where many paths and by-ways intersected to form a trail, from the entrance of which many persons fancied that they were able to glimpse a dim vista of towering mountains, enshrouded in mist which rose above scenes of indescribable grandeur, the details of which, however, were so confused as to leave the observer with a doubt as to whether the vision was a reality or but a phantasy of the imagination. Toward this land the trail stretched forth until it was lost to view in the hazy distance. It chanced that at the entrance to this trail, there once met a company of travelers, who, pleased with the glowing reports of this delectable land, agreed to unite in an attempt to reach its far distant boundaries. Scarcely had they begun their journey, however, when the difficulties of the trail became evident, and they found themselves confronted at times by what appeared to be insurmountable obstacles in the distance, but when these barriers were reached, invariably there was found to be some means by which they could be overcome. In the course of time the journey became wearisome to some of the travel- ers, who complained of the dryness and dustiness of the trail, and who, un- able to bear its seeming privations, turned back, but the rest pressed on, and indeed, found at times pleasant places, and springs of water which were sources of pleasure and refreshment to them, although some of the party, more troubled by the anticipated difficulties of the way, found no pleasure in these delights. As the travelers progressed along the trail, they descried at various intervals the towers of great cities enthroned above prospects of wondrous beauty, at what seemed no great distance from the trail, and since the trail stretched on into the illimitable distance, some of the party, seduced by what appeared to be a more easily attained fulfillment of their desires, sought these inviting scenes, to find after much labor only sandy wastes, and that they had but followed a delusion. At length the company neared the end of the trail, and before them lay the mighty mountain wall which alone separated them from the land of which they had dreamed. The mountains were wrapped in mist above which their rugged peaks stood like sentinels, and as the travelers entered their midst, they heard the roar of great waters, and faced the many dangers of the treacherous cliffs and chasms. At last, however, the party looked down on the verdant valleys of that land of promise, which fully equaled their expectations. In the years which followed, they often desired to traverse again that trail, the pleasures of which seemed greater than those which they had since attained. This desire, however, they were unable to gratify, for the trail, as soon as they had passed over it, disappeared and of their experiences along that highway, there remained only the memory.

THE SQINFLOWER OF i923 THE CLASS OF JUNE '23 Four years ago, Topeka high school opened her doors to nearly two hundred new students. who were to develop into one of the largest and best classes ever harbored by this splendid institution. Among the constituents of that new group were students who later were to lead even the entire school in its enterprises and activities. Among them were three future presidents of the student council, as well as many others who were to become prominent in the affairs of the school. The activities of this class, which later was to introduce several new features to the school life of T. H. S., were, of course, somewhat limited during the freshman year, but when the members of the Class of June '23 attained the rather exalted dignities of sophomores, they zealously organized, selected their first officers, and chose Mrs. Lutie Embleton and Miss Minnie Stewart, two of Topeka high school's finest, to advise them during their school careers. After the class had been organized, this promising group of youngsters. for so they were then. immediately entered into the spirit of school life. They held several entertaining parties and many peppy class meetings during the sophomore year of this class. Certainly no group of students could honestly be prouder of their achieve- ments than could the June '23's. Although no unusual honors were attained by any individual of this class during that year, these students were preparing themselves for the services they would render their school during their junior and senior years. Although the Class of June '23 was handicapped to some extent, as are all large classes, by lack of interest among some of its members, the real leaders of the class, together with many enthusiastic students, guided the group on thru the junior year, and set a fine example for the other students of the school. Parties and social events were held throughout the year, and the Junior-Senior Reception in January, 1922, was one of the best ever given in Topeka high school, for the members of the graduating classes. The senior year of the Class of June '23 was the most interesting as well as the most eventful period of its history. Last fall the members of this class staged the first political campaign that Topeka high school ever witnessed. This new feature was first noticed when one of the candidates for the presidency of the class passed sticks of chewing gum among the members of the class for the purpose of securing votes in the coming election. James Griffith was elected to the office by a large majority after an exciting campaign by his friends, who rallied to counteract the influence of his opponent's forces. He was elected, soon after, to the presidency of the student council. Even more exciting, however, was the political campaign held during the early part of the spring term for the election of officers. The Loyalist Political Party, organized by Park Cain, James Griffith, and Dean Perry, held a political caucus early in February for the purpose of selecting a ticket to run in the regular class election. Soon afterwards, another group of seniors organized the T. H. S. Party and chose a ticket to run in opposition to the Loyalists' candidates for the various class offices. Following the selection of the two tickets, posters were placed on the bulletin boards of the school advertising the various candidates. So close was the opposition in the final election, Bill Snyder, the Loyalist candidate for president of the class, who later was elected president of the student council, won over Lawrence Patterson, the T. H. S. Party candidate, by only five votes. Of the six elective offices, three were filled by Loyalist candidates, and the other three by T. H. S. Party candidates. In addition to the interest of the seniors in politics, several parties were held by the class which met with great success, and the Class of June '23 leaves Topeka high school with the hope that its members have benefited the school as a whole, in a meager attempt to repay the students and teachers of Topeka high school for the many inspirations they have received during the course of their careers in good old T.

RAYQMOND HAPPE Page Fifty-six THE SUNFLOWER OF i923 CLASS OF JANUARY '24 If you, dear readers, will pardon a little snatch of personal history, I will tell you some of my observations of your school life which may or may not be of interest to you, depending on what you already know. I am the C. Itall bug, daughter of No Itall and Hear Itall, son of B. Itall, son of Do Itall, of the noble family of Entomophogas. I have inherited the characteristics of my forefathers for genera- tions back and consequently nothing escapes my notice. I remember in January, one year, there entered T. H. S. a group of students, who called themselves the January '24's. tAt the time I could not understand why such a name should be chosen but later learned that was the date they all intended to graduatej VVell, such a noisy bunch of sub-freshmen as they were. I declare there was no peace in the halls the first term they were here. In spite of the fact that I lost much of my rest, I enjoyed seeing such pep and overflowing good nature. I noticed many, that term, who looked as though they could really do things. In two more terms the members of the whole class seemed to be developing into leaders. I often heard the teachers talking among themselves-for they do that you know- discussing this body of young folks. Did you ever see such splendid English students? , None of my January '24 Latin students received pink cards, How well they apply themselvesy'-and so on, world without end. Near Christmas time everything was in an upheaval as it was again time for the annual All School Party. Such a merry time as I had hopping around to keep out from under hurrying feet! These January '24's seemed to have the whole party on their shoulders and rushed hither and yon putting up decorations, practicing stunts, and seeing that everything was in order. I must confess, long before this, I was so interested in this remarkable group of young people, I was devoutly thankful for the inherited characteristics which made it possible for me to know all about them. ' After every club election it pleased me to see so many January '24's chosen for leaders. In all outside activities they were at the front: Athletic teams, Hi-Y, Girl Reserves, Annual and World staffs, and Dramatic clubs. Besides this, they were enthusiastic, worthwhile members of any club they joined. When this class won the inter-class basket ball championship, I lost my head Knot literally of coursel-but whatwith jumping up and down on those shaky bleachers and shouting and yelling I lost my equilibrium at least! I fear my physique is not very adaptable to jumping on bleachers. Rolling is more in my line. The January '24's took first place in stunts at an All School Party. Having seen them practice before, I was not at all surprised at this. It did my old bug heart good to see the girls of this class take presents and a Christmas tree to the Provident Association for a poor family. It was fine to find some thoughtful of others students. Never did I miss a January '24 party, picnic or hayrack ride. I was always too sure of the good time I would have. Everyone enjoyed themselves and somehow there was such a friendly atmosphere, even Ubug I felt at home at these events. If my health and vigor hold out, I intend to remain in this high school for at least one more term to see this class give their senior play. That alone will be worth 'these four years of watching them develop. And now I must scurry along to my happy home with its waiting comforts. .Oh yes indeed, even the best of bugs enjoy the luxury of a comfy chair and cool things 'to drink.

THE SUNFLOWER OF i923 ORGANIZATIONS Characters: Mother, Father, Alice, Dean, Philip, Jane. ACT I.-Scene 1-Evening. tThe scene opens in a living room of a modern home. Father and Mother are reading. The children are studying in the same room.J Alice: Oh, dear! I just remembered that I have to make a speech at the Y. W. banquet tomorrow. I have three lessons to get besides. Work in all these organiza- tions takes so much time. Dean: Yes, and I had to stay so long at Science Club that I can,t get all my chemistry for tomorrow. I Philip: Well, your old clubs don't take any more time than debating and Hi-Y, guess. Mother: Children, children, don't complain so much about your work. When your father and I went to school they didn't have any such organizations at all. You really get a great deal of good training and pleasure out of them which you don't seem to appreciate. Jane: Well, I'll tell you, Mother, it's this way. In most of our clubs we have a large membership but there are only a few of us who take a real lively interest. Just this term a lot of new clubs were formed as so many students seemed to want them. At first they were very enthusiastic and many people wanted to join but soon they lost interest and we few are left to do the real work. Dean: VVhat we really need in most of our organizations is more people with the co-operative spirit who are willing to share a little responsibility and do a little honest-to-goodness work. Alice: It isn't so bad if you only belong to one activity, but look at me. Y. W., Pia Societas, Advertising Club, Dramatic Club, etc. It's too much work to keep up with all of them. Father: Well, I'll tell you what I think about it. All these organizations are good and worthy. Any club that you join, you should be willing to give as much time to as is necessary. You are trying to take a part in too many of them. You should not try to do so much because you cannot do justice to any one. Then, too, your lessons must come first. You must not allow your grades to suffer because of outside work. I think that everyone in your school should take part in some club but allow plenty of time for other things. Both the clubs and the members would be better off. Philip: That is true, Dad, but when it comes down to the actual facts itls hard to discriminate. We have more fine opportunities in our school! One would like to belong to all of them. There is something everyone is interested in. Jane: Really folks, you should have been at the Dramatic Club meeting this after- noon. We had a dandy program and the most fun. Dean: Well, you should have heard the radio concert at the Science Club. It was a good one! Alice: The Camera Club took a hike this afternoon out to the creek. We got some good exercise and lots of pictures. Mother: So you see you aren't really very much overworked after all, are you? Dean: No, I guess we are really mighty lucky. I don't know how you got along without any such activities, Dad. fBell rings. Philip goes to the door.j . I I . Philip: Hello, Don, old boy. Come in. We're just discussing our outside activities. Won't you join us? 1 , , Don: That's just what I came to talk about. Phil, you're to lead the boys hike tomorrow. , , Philip: Boy, I'll be right there. But now I've got to study or I'll flunk a civics test tomorrow. 1 Don: Yes, I'll be going, as I have a Spanish test. So long, folks. See you tomorrow, Phil. Philip' So long tDon leavesl We must buckle down and study now and stop talking. i There are some important club meetings tomorrow that I can't afford to miss. l CCurtainJ Page Sixty-nine THE SUNFLOWER OF I923 STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS Fall 1922 Spring 1923 President ........... .... J aines Griffith Billie Snyder Vice President ............................ Alice Benning George Darrow Secretary and Treasurer ..,................. Sam Boyle Virginia Scholle Chairman Social Connnittee for All School Party-Bernard Peterson Page Seventy THE SUNFLOVER OF l923 STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the governing body of the high school, composed wholly of students, with Mr. Cook as its head. This council is made up of the presidents, retiring presidents, and vice presidents of each of the six organized classes of the school. Although this body does not have the power to make laws, it has in the past made valuable suggestions, which, after due consideration by the school board, have become permanent laws. The point system is entirely controlled by this organization. By this system points are given for the various offices in organizations and participation in school activities, and when ten points have been made by any student in two consecutive terms, he is awarded an Honor T and is privileged to buy and wear an Honor T pin. No student can carry more than seven points in one term. This system keeps a few students from monopolizing the leadership in the school, encourages participation in school activities, and by the awarding of the T's, recognizes service done by students for the school. Members of this organization are responsible each year at Christmas time for putting on the All School Party, which is the biggest social feature of the school year. Three-fourths of the students of Topeka high school and faculty attended the last All School Party. Each class was responsible for a stunt in the program in the assembly hall, nor was the faculty forgotten. Their colored minstrel show was the funniest thing ever witnessed by the high school students. The class of January '24 took the prize for the best stunt. Different clubs and organizations had stunts, side shows and special features in the class rooms on the first floor of the north building. Everything and everyone was asparkle with happiness and Christmas excitement. Although a great number of students took part in the party, the council was directly in charge of the whole affair. This one party alone, which brings everyone in the school closer together in a friendly way, warrants the organization of such a body as the Student Council. Through this body many ideas, criticisms, student opinions and conditions of social life, are brought to the attention of the faculty which otherwise would have been left unexpressedg for this reason the council is one of the most necessary organizations to the student body as a Whole. Topeka high school is becoming more self-governing each year which is largely due to the interest, co-operation and work of the Student Council.

Hays ......................................... . . .Business Adviser The old biblical saying, By their works ye shall know them, might be very aptly applied to the 1922-1923 Wo1'ld staff and journalism classes, for throughout the past school year the efforts of the students and teachers connected with this phase of school life, as realized in the Topeka High School World, have been deeply appre- ciated by the whole student body of T. H. S. The World has advanced in many ways during the year 1922-1923. The World boasts of a circulation of 1,150 papers this year as compared with a circulation last year of approximately 800. Prior to the beginning of the fall term, the printing contract for the World has been let each year to some Topeka print shop, but since the purchase of a Lee cylinder press, the school paper for the first time in its history has been printed by the students, themselves, in the school print shop. In order that the World might be of as high a standard as possible, the staff and the advisers spent many hours outside of school in preparing each issue for publi- cation. Due to the resignation of Albert Davis as business manager in the latter part of the fall term, George Weaver served Albert's uncompleted term in addition to his own term of office. The position of make-up editor was added to the staff at the beginning of the spring term so that the editor would not be required to devote so much of his time in making up the paper each week. The journalism classes this year have been larger than usual, notwithstanding the fact that each term students have been refused admission to these classes because of overcrowded conditions. The journalism students, in addition to writing news for the World, contribute to the Topeka State Journal through the High School Happenings column, and also write for a column in the Topeka Daily Capital.

As well as Working together for the promotion of the art department, each member of the guild reaps an individual benefit by Working on some craft problem. During the fall term wooden novelties were painted and decorated in different Ways, of which many were used for Christmas presents. Tooled leather articles were made during the spring term. Each club member has learned the principles of good design, which can be applied in various Ways to the life of the member. The Art Guild is a junior member of the Topeka Art Guild, and assists this senior organization in different phases of its Work. Being thus classified the junior society is privileged to attend any meetings or exhibits of the Topeka Art Guild. An exhibit and tea was given by the art department during the year, which was under the auspices of the guild. This exhibit showed the progress of this department of the high school during the past three years. OFFICERS Gladys Alspach . . ..,........ .......

Secretary .............Treasurer The Scribblers' club of Topeka high school is composed of the two English VIII classes. The first hour class organized under the name of The Twenty-three Tireless Tale Tellersf' The third hour class is called Jones, Jugglers of English. The English VIII course consists of the study of the short story, and many original stories are written by members of the classes. Many short masterpieces were pro- duced by newly discovered Kiplings and O. Henrys. For several years it has been a custom of the club to publish The Scribblers' Magazine, which is evidence of their remarkable literary ability. It is said to compare favorably with the well known Snappy Stories. Besides writing four stories and a number of sketches, each student reviewed and criticized fifty other short stories. But the Scribblers believe that All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, and therefore they amuse themselves with folly programs in class and other diversions.

Lorraine Bates, Gretchen Metzke and Harry Dawdy were selected as the negative team, while Willard Garhart, Philip Lewis and Beatrice Swords upheld the affirmative side of the question. Howard McCord and Milton Smith were selected as alternates. The question for debate in the Kaw Valley League was Resolved: That the federal government should own and operate the coal mines of the United States. The first contest was a dual debate with Manhattan high school, February 16, the Topeka negative team meeting Manhattan at Manhattan and the Topeka affirmative debating the Manhattan negative team at Topeka. Topeka won on each side of the question in this debate, the total score by points being: Topeka, 5, Manhattan, 1. After this victory, Topeka entered the finals against the Kansas City, Kan., teams and lost the decision by only two points. The T, H. S. negative team won from the K. C. K. affirmative by a two to one decision in Topeka, but the Topeka affirmative team lost by a 3-0 decision, giving their opponents the championship of the league. Winning three out of four debates, however, the Topeka team had a very successful season. The members of the debate team were materially handicapped, however, as no member of the team had had more than one term of debating work. Miss Grace Bixler, who coached the team during the past season, deserves commendation for the splendid results of her efforts. Howard McCord and Milton Smith, alternates, deserve special mention for their aid to the regular debaters.

The fourth hour class named its club the Delta Phi Kappa and the fifth hour class was known as the Epsilon Phi Kappa. There were as many girls in each class as there were boys. Friday was the day set for the meeting of each club. On club days an interesting program was given or questions pertaining to the club were discussed in parliamentary form. The fifth hour class carried on impeachment proceedings against its august president at one time for failing to officiate properly. This was a most interesting and amusing performance and, of course, the president won. Everyone in both classes had to take part in four debates during the term. Some of these discourses were indeed soul stirring. Trembling voices became calmg shaky knees became inflexible. In the last series of debates no notes except for rebuttal were used. The days in which the Phi Kappas literally camped at the libraries will not soon be forgotten. The classes carried on parliamentary drill according to Robert's Rules of Order and many and great were the discussions. Many budding orators made their first debut into politics. Resolutions were introduced, discussed, and disposed of in proper form. Order was maintained at times only by the joint action of the president and the sergeant-at-arms. Persons especially disorderly were fined three cents. By far the biggest social event in the history of the Phi Kappas was a joint wienie roast out on the Sand Bar. Nearly every member was present and everyone enjoyed himself thoroughly. The Delta Phi Kappas had a party and a luncheon, also. The Epsilon Phi Kappas held a mock banquet at which after-dinner speeches and toasts were cleverly given by several members of the club. The Phi Kappas strove hard and achieved much. They improved delivery and thought, the foundations of good debating. In everything undertaken co-operation was manifest. Much of this success was due to interest and enthusiasm of Miss Bixler. The Phi Kappas will always remember the pleasant, enjoyable hours spent in room 212. There was only one debating class during the spring term. This was called the Quidnunc class, which being interpreted means what next? Besides their regular work, this class helped in advertising the inter-school debate.

Under the leadership of Bill Snyder for the fall term, and of Lynn Bradford for the spring, the club held many successful and instructive meetings. This organization met every week for the purpose of hearing lectures given by the various directors of the departments and to see the interesting experiments that were performed in connection with the talks. By no means was the club a large one, for, quite the contrary, the membership was limited to thirty, thus giving it a sort of exclusive air. At all events, whether the attendance was large or small, few members left a meeting without having acquired a slight bit of hitherto unknown information. The club is proud of its record and feels that the members have been greatly bene- fited by the year's work of the officers and directors and James Dickson, who has given much time and aid.

The membership of the club is limited to fifty boys of the junior and senior classes. Meetings are held each alternate Tuesday evening at the Senior Chamber of Commerce rooms. At these meetings, discussions on civic and school questions are features of the programs. This organization, though perhaps not as Well known as some others, has proved a success, and has been -very beneficial, both to the school, and to its members, to whom it has given a better conception of civic duty and good citizenship. The Junior Chamber of Commerce has lived up to its principles, and during the past year handled the sales of the football and basket ball tickets for the athletic department. The club has also aided the city planning board by determining the amount of traffic on certain streets in the city. G. E. Lindell has been the adviser of the club, succeeding J. F.

A really live-wire organization. Ask anyone in the school and the opinion will be the same. Ask some student, any one will do, about the Lawrence Pep assembly of which this athletic boosting group of girls was in charge. Was there ever such a spicy program? Did any mortal ever hear such yelling and unbottled enthusiasm before? Noi No! comes the answer. Oh, yes-ask a football fan how the old gridiron and bleachers looked on the day of that memorable game with Lawrence. The fences surrounding the fields were decorated and the two goals were gaily twined with the colors of the two schools. Candy, megaphones and hot dogs were sold at different games. It was a great joy to devour a hot dogi' when it was freezing cold and you were cold clear through to your soul, from standing on the bleachers. Clean sportsmanship and real, fair boosting were the two ideals the Booster club endeavored to instill into every member of the school.

The object of this organization is to ,permit its members to stud h b' t ' ' ' y suc su Jec s as the literature, art, and history of France more extensively than they can do in the first years of their study of the French language. By accom- plishing these ends, it makes the class work much more interesting as Well as instructive. In order to further the aims described above, programs are given by members of the club at each meeting. The meetings are held bi-Weekly during the class eriods. P The programs are variedg talks on French customs sometimes illustrated b t , y s ere- opticon views, French games, and other interesting entertainment featuring the programs. ' Each year the club secures contributions for the support of French war orphans. In order to carry on this work, the club presents an assembly program to the Whole school, and afterwards collects the contributions of the students. Members of the club correspond With students in France, thereby learning more about the country than would otherwise be possible.

The Latin word Pietas from which the name of the society is derived implies love of country, family, and religion. This ideal has been well epitomized by this organization in the clause in its constitution which declares its object to be the rendering of the Hbest possible service to our fellowmenf' Although organized during the War for the purpose of carrying on wartime activities its efforts have not been confined to those services rendered by it during that time but it has since in many ways carried out its high ideals. This term the meetings of the society, which are held monthly, were devoted largely to programs on classical subjects which contained illustrated talks on varied topics, dramatizations, and other features which tended to make the classical period of interest to the members of the organization. The present high standing enjoyed by this society among the organizations of the school is due in a great measure to the conscientious and untiring efforts of Miss Ewing, Who has acted as sponsor of the society since its organization and under Whose guidance it has become one of the best known organizations of the school and a force for the development of good citizenship on the part of its members.

Meeting every Monday night at the Y. M. C. A., it has carried out plans and ideas for the benefit of the whole school. The three hundred and sixty students who attended the big football festival on November 28, 1922, will remember it as one of the big events of their high school days. This banquet, another football banquet, a basket ball banquet and a father-and-son banquet were put on by the Hi-Y in the past year. The Hi-Y, co-operating with the Girl Reserve club, has put on, once each month, a devotional assembly. At these assemblies, which were presided over by members of the Hi-Y and Girl Reserve clubs, some of the most prominent Kansans, as Well as speakers from other states, have talked to the school. These assemblies have been very interesting as Well as helpful to the student body of Topeka high school. These two organizations have also co-operated in keeping a lost and found depart- ment, Which, with the help of Dr. W. H. Greider, has succeeded in returning a large number of lost articles to the owners. The discussions at the weekly meetings have been especially interesting in the past year and of great benefit to the boys. The Hi-Y is open to any boy in Topeka high school who is anxious to promote clean speech, clean sports and clean living in the school. The advisers of the club are Victor Hurt and J. Glen McSparran.

Finance: All of the funds to support this club for the year of 1922-23 were raised through one big Hi-Y-Y. W. budget campaign. Fields of Service: This Girls' Reserve club helps support a secretary in China, sends delegates to a conference in Estes Park, Colorado, conducts, in co-operation with the Hi-Y, the lost and found department of the school, and a monthly devotional assembly, sees that every new girl coming into high school has a Big Sister, and brings students into a closer relationship to Jesus Christ.

A club of this type for colored girls was a new and much needed organization. The membership committee has carried on a very successful campaign to the effect that nearly all of the colored girls in Topeka high school are members. Meetings have been held at 3:00 on Thursday afternoons at the high school. The program has been planned so that they have a committee meeting, a devotional meet- ing and two discussional meetings each month. When there is a fifth Thursday, a social is planned. In this manner the girls are striving toward a greater mental, physical and spiritual development. At the colored Y. W. C. A. conference held at Kansas City, Kansas, Venola Ridley was elected secretary of the conference and Verlee Dandridge was appointed as one of the members on the finding committee. This is the first conference that the colored girls of Topeka high school have attended. They found the meetings very interesting and helpful.

S. has provided as much entertainment for the school as has the Senior Dramatic club during the past school year. The endeavors of this club have been accepted very enthusiastically by the students of the school. The major production of the club this year was 'iThe Gold Bug, starring Evelyn Carlson and Harold Carr. This play, presented during the fall term, was very success- fully presented to a large audience. Another play, Putting It Up to Patty, was given in assembly by the members of the dramatic club. This play was a comedy in which Margaret Morrison and Lawrence Patterson carried the leads. Miss Ethelyn Lindley is the coach and adviser of the club and her untiring efforts in co-operation with it have made possible the success of these productions. JUNIOR DRAMATIC CLUB The Junior Dramatic club was first organized during the spring term of 1923, for the purpose of giving the under classmen of the school an opportunity toparticipate in dramatics. Those students who are unable to join the Senior Dramatic club because of their classification, received training in the junior club which gives them an advantage when they become eligible for membership in the senior club. Miss Ethel Frizell has been the adviser' of the club this year, succeeding Miss Grace Bixler, Who was the adviser last year. THE TI-IESPIAN CLUB In spite of the fact that our club is a very young organization, We feel that there is much hidden talent in it yet to be discovered. Our eighteen charter members are very enthusiastic and expect to accomplish much in the future. The purpose of our club is to promote an interest in dramatics in the Topeka high school, and to train the pupils to speak and act before audiences. We have had very good programs at our meetings, which are held on every Monday after school, and have planslfor many more interesting ones. We feel that we are very fortunate in having Miss Boyles and Miss Crawford as our advisers.

These organizations first took the trophy in 1921, and succeeded in winning the cup again in 1922 and 1923. As a result of these consecutive victories, the trophy cup becomes the permanent property of the Topeka high school musical organizations. The Girls' Glee club took first place in the contest again this year. Although there are many new voices in the club this year, the high standards of efficiency of last year's club are highly evident again this year. The Girls' Glee club has increased considerably in numbers since last year. The entire group did not go to Emporia this year, however, as accommodations were rather limited. The girls making the trip this year were chosen by special tryout, as were also those students representing the other musical organizations of the school. The Boys' Glee club won second place at Emporia this year, but won first prize in 1921 and in 1922. CIt is probable that the reason this organization did not take first place again this year is because the judges of the contest were ashamed to give Topeka high school five firsts at one contest.J The Mixed Chorus, composed of members of the boys' and girls' glee clubs, also won first prize at the contest. The glee clubs gave several interesting assembly programs in addition to presenting, together with the orchestra, a very successful operetta, Bulbul. The orchestra has greatly increased the quality of its playing since last year, as demonstrated by the fact that this organization took first place at Emporia this year. Last year the orchestra took second place. The orchestra was put to a practical use this year, as it furnished music at all the assembly programs. This new feature proved to aid materially in making the assembly programs more interesting to the student body as a whole, for everybody enjoys good music. The high school band did not enter the contest this year, as it is a rather new organization. Nevertheless, a very promising band of about twenty pieces was organized in the fall, and played at all the football games, as well as at the pep assemblies. A good band is an asset to any school, and the Topeka high school band will certainly merit the support of the student body in 1923-24. Page Ninety-eight THE SUNFLOWER OF l923 , Story Telling Club THE STORY TELLING CLUB The Story Telling club was reorganized this term after having been abandoned for some time. This term the club was organized to create an interest in stories of the better type and aslo to train one to tell a story in an interesting and entertaining manner. Miss Ruth Schnacke and Miss Maud Hulse assisted in organizing the club and did much to keep up the interest during the term. Club meetings were held every Wednesday in Room 28. After the business meeting a program under the direction of Mary Spurlock, vice president and chairman of the program committee, was given. Usually the program consisted of stories told by the different club members, or those Wishing to become members. Everyone must appear on the program before becoming a member, though any girl in the school may join the club if she fulfills this requirement. During the term the club held several social affairs including hikes and spreads. The members of the club were assessed ten cents for the purpose of buying books of Well known authors. The story telling club has been very successful this term and promises, in the future, to become one of the most popular clubs in the school.

It strives to familiarize each member with the country about Topeka. This club was formed to satisfy the popular demand for such an organization for the boys and corresponds to the Girls' Hiking club. The club has a good-sized mem- bership considering that it is a very new activity in the school, and the number is growing rapidly. The boys are very enthusiastic and display a lot of pep. The scope of activity of the club is by no means narrow. It is composed of a group of sociable, talkative fellows who do not sit and libel the Board of Education with defamatory remarks because of the ten months school, but who consign their books to their lockers on Friday afternoons and go out for a hike and a swim. They offer no patent medicine testimonies but they do guarantee their cure for the spring fever. OFFICERS President ..... .....,...... . . .Don Herrington Vice resident . . . .....

We don't use cosmetics Because we do think That hiking does give us A beautiful pink l If a club is to be measured by the amount of genuine fun had by each member, the Girls' Hiking club will rank among the highest in Topeka high school. Every Friday afternoon, rain or shine, this band of lively, happy girls set out on a hike. These afternoon hikes usually average about four miles. The girls visit the Shunganunga, the river, Vinewood and other places of interest in Shawnee County. A different captain leads each hike, assisted by two lieutenants of her own choice who help her keep the girls in line, blow shrill blasts on the shiny whistle, carry the pedometer, hold down barbwire fences, and protect the girls from cows, fierce dogs, and unruly street cars. To become a permanent member of this interesting organization a girl has .to go on at least two of the four hikes each month and pay promptly the membership fee of five cents. Any girl who wishes to have a really good time, to develop physically, to widen the circle of her friendships, to learn more about nature and to become familiar with the country surrounding Topeka, can realize her desires by becoming an active member of this organization.

A large crowd of home folks turned out to watch Kenneth Macferran, Howard McCord, and Milton Smith, the iocal Ping Pong team, play the visiting team from our neighbor, Silver Smoke. The locals entered the room at about seven o'clock and had some snappy practice for about an hour. About that time a phone call came from one of the Silver Smoke boys saying that they would forfeit. This is the second game that the locals have won and we should be proud of them. EDITORIAL Positive figures show that many people are killed annually while crossing railway crossings. A stop should be put to this immediately as it will not be long before all the Americans in America will be dead if the rate remains so high.

HEPWORTH COACH VICTOR HURT ATHLETICS It has long been realized that athletics is the corner stone of high school spirit. There is perhaps nothing that has been as great a factor in building up the splendid spirit in Topeka high school as our athletics. Athletics wrongly managed and con- ducted is harmful to any school, but Topeka high has not suffered from this source. Athletics in T. H. S. means fighting with the right spiritg fighting for old T. H. S. but at all times and always sportsmanship at its best. Much of the credit for the unusual success of athletics in our high school is due to our athletic officials. To C. H. Hepworth, Who has acted as financial manager of this department since coming to Topeka high school, We owe our deepest gratitude. By successfully handling the finances he has made athletics possible. To Coach Victor Hurt, the school gives its esteem, its loyalty, its devotion. In one brief year he has Won a real place in the hearts of Topeka high school. He has coached our teams through successful seasons, he has taught us only the finest and best of sportsmanship and has held before us this goal: To be an athlete, a scholar and a gentleman. Under the guidance of such officials our teams have Won and lost, but when they lost, they always fought hard and clean for good old T. H. S. Page One Hundred Three THE SUNFLOWER OF l923 REVIEW OF THE FOOTBALL SEASON Topeka High School had a very successful season during the fall of 1922, winning five games out of eight played. The Topeka team scored 124 points against their opponents' 47 points. The team swamped Lawrence, traditional football enemy of Topeka high school, with a score of 23-0. This was the second consecutive victory over Lawrence during the last two years. The first game of the season was played with Wamego, Kansas. In this game, Topeka won by the largest score of the season, 30-0. The place in T. H. S. athletics left vacant by J. E. R. Barnes, who had coached the Topeka teams since 1918, has been ably filled by Victor E. Hurt, who coached the Coldwater High School team last year. Mr. Hurt graduated from the College of Emporia and was a star in practically every phase of college athletics while he was in college. He won a place in the heart of every player to produce a winning team. Eight letter men, including Captain Tom Boyd, Vernon Jolley, Robert Carr, Walter Johnson, Leo Carmain, and school last fall to fight for T. H. S. Throughout the hampered the team, in addition to the difficulties with has to cope. by his conscientious efforts Graefe, John French, Harry Sherwood Hall, returned to season, injuries and illness which a new coach always After trouncing Wamego, Topeka played Manhattan, winning this game 14-0. The next two games, played with Ottawa and Hutchinson, were lost by scores of 3-7 and 6-14, respectively. Topeka then defeated Emporia, 24-0, only to lose to Wichita, 0-19. In retaliation for the defeats of the season, the Topeka team defeated Atchison, 24-7, and crowned the season with a decisive victory over Lawrence high school. The total aggregate score of the season was: Topeka, 124, opponents, 47. Men who made first team letters this year are as follows: Tom Boyd, captain, Walter Johnson, captain-elect, Sherwood Hall, Leo Carmain, Harry Jolley, Robert Carr, Athos Aplin, John French, Vernon Graefe, George Brewster, Wendell Taylor, George Darrow, Henry Goss, and Richard Grotewohl. In addition to these men, Sam Boyle, Leon Johnson, Andy Owens, and Bill Towler, even though they did not participate in enough games to win a letter, deserve credit for their efforts on the gridiron. Page One Hundred Four THE SUNFLOWER OF l923 Captain Tom Boyd-- Cap - Full-back C160 lbs.J Cap was Topeka's triple threat man. Tom, through his playing and ability to arouse fight in the team, proved that the letter men last year made a wise choice when they elected him captain. His puntiug last season averaged approximately forty yards and his passes were long and accurate. The passing combination, Boyd to Johnson, was hard to equal. Starting the season at full-back, Tom played every position in the backfield except right half and performed creditably in each. Cap played his best game against Lawrence. Tom's departure will leave a gap in the backfield which will be hard to fill. Sherwood Hall- Tex',-Tackle C1 55 lbsj Tex was one of the hardest hitting line- men on the squad. As a hard, consistent fighter, Hall was unexcelled. His excellent playing at tackle won him honorable mention on the all-state team. Tex played every minute of the season except for a few min- utes in the Atchison game, when he was taken out on account of injuries. As a reward for his hard playing in the Lawrence game, Hall received a Week's furlough from his physical training class. Tex is another of the letter men who will be lost to T. H. S. through graduation. Wendell Taylor- Red -Full-back C155 lbs.D This was Taylor's first year of football and he performed like a veteran. Red be- came regular fullback near the middle of the season and kept this position for the re- mainder of the football year. Taylor was about the fastest man on the team and was as good a scrapper as one could wish. His droll humor made him very popular with the squad and with the school. Red has fin- ished his high school football career, having graduated in January. Richard Grotewohl- Dick - Quarter f148 lbs.j Dick came to T. H. S. from Washburn high school this fall and quickly won a place on the team. Although all his former ex- perience had been at half-back, he played quarter last fall, doing unusually well. Injuries and sickness handicapped Dick con- siderably last season but whenever he was in condition, he Was a real backfield man. He was the best broken field runner, with the exception of French, on the team. Dick graduated in January. Robert Carr- Bob -Guard C154 lbs., Bob at right guard was a prominent part of Topeka's defense. As Topeka played open center this year, a great deal of responsi- bility was thrown on the guards. Bob was always there with energy and fight and he battled every inch of the way. Bob played his best game against Lawrence. Carr is another letter man who will be back next fall to play on the 1923 football team. i Page One Hundred Five THE SUNFLOWER OF l923 1 l Athos Aplin- Duckie',-Tackle C165 lbs.j Besides being a bear cat at football, Athos was rated as the best duck hunter that ever played on a Topeka high school football team. Aplinis playing at right tackle was a potent factor in Topeka's defense and offense. Time after time Duckie broke through the opposing line, throwing them for a loss. From a coach's standpoint the only thing that keeps Athos from being con- sidered a perfect athlete is his fondness for candy. Duckie will be fighting for T. H. S. again next fall. Vernon Graefe+ Cupie -Half-back C1 50 lbs.J To Topeka high school football fans, Graefe is known as a fast, low plunging half. His hard playing and irresistible good humor made him one of the most popular athletes in school. Two or three players may hit him but Cupie always comes up smiling. Graefe lives in Wichita but to our good fortune, he chose to attend Topeka high school. Cupie will probably be the back- field nucleus for next year's team. George Darrow- Andy Gumpn- End C140 lbs.J George advanced from his position as sub- stitute in 1921 to the regular left end on the team last fall. Seldom did Darrow ever allow an opponent's play to go over him. Andy always managed either to break it up himself or turn it on to the tackles. He was second only to Johnson in his ability to receive passes. Darrow's hobby is note writing, at which he is very proficient. He is another letter man who will be back next fall. George Brewster- Jack',-End and Quarterback f155 ll::s.J Jack was the best all around football man on the team. During his four years of foot- ball he has played practically every position on the team. This season he played in nearly every game, either at end, half, or quarterback. Probably his best playing was done against Manhattan when he piloted T. H. S. to a 14 to 0 victory. Jack grad- uates this spring. Henry Goss- Reverse --Center C1 50 lbs.D If a prize were to be given for hard work, Goss would be a prominent contestant. He did not play regularly this season but when- ever he was put into the game, he put plenty of fight into ms work. As evidence of his work on the gridiron last season, it might be noticed that his weight dropped from 165 pounds to 150 pounds. Reverse will be back next year and will in all prob- ability be a regular. Page One Hundred Six THE SUNFLOWER OF I923 Harry Jolley- Big Drink -Guard C198 lbs.J Jolley was one of the best guards Topeka high school has ever had. Although handi- capped by a bad knee, Jolley played a hard fighting game all through the season. Be- sides being an all-state guard, Big Drink was one of the most likable fellows on the team. The big Jolley smile made friends for him everywhere he went. Jolley will be greatly missed next year. John French- Frenchie',-Half-back C1 38 lbs.J French was Topeka's safety. On the de- fensive John had, perhaps, the most respon- sible position on the team to fill, and he seldom failed to bring down his man or to return a punt for a good gain. On the offensive Frenchie was a consistent ground gainer and the best broken field runner on the team. The 1922 season was John's second and last on the Topeka football team, as he graduates from school this June. Walter Johnson- Ole -Encl- Captain-elect f155 lbs., Johnson was rated as the best high school end in the state. While a Wonderful de- fensive player, Johnson's specialty was re- ceiving passes. Time after time last season, he jumped high in the air to catch passes, while surrounded by his opponents. In appreciation of his excellent playing Johnson has been elected captain for the 1923 season. With Ole as captain Topeka is assured a fighting team next fall. Leo Carmain-- The Kid -Center O45 lbsj When we think of fight and noise we think of Leo. We have yet to see or hear a player who fights harder or who yells louder. Playing at center, Leo's passing was accurate and his tackles were so numerous we lost count of them. Several times during the season Leo intercepted passes and ran for good gains. He is not only scrappy but is very chivalrous, his square playing having Won favorable comment from one of the referees. Leo will probably be back next fall. Page One Hundred Seven THE SUN!-'LOVER OF I923iE' Tennis Team TENNIS TEAM Tennis is increasing in interest in Topeka high school. Twenty boys entered the all school tournament and from this group the following boys were chosen to represent the high school: Kenneth Macferran fcaptainb, Mitchell Foster, Richard Fisher, Edwin Schall, and William Marshall. Lloyd H. Mosser and Willialii J. Barnett are coaching the team this year. Page One Hundred Eight THE SUNFLOVER OF l923 REVIEW OF THE BASKET BALL SEASON The Topeka high basket ball squad was very successful during the past season, winning fifteen and losing only four out of nineteen games played, totaling 4 points to their opponents' 3. Besides this, they took second place in the N. E. K. league, won the district tournament and went to the second round in the state tournament. Four letter men reported to Coach Hurt at the beginning of the season. With 'these men he built a team that was feared by all of its opponents. Three members of this year's team will be graduating in the spring: Boyd, Brewster, and Sproul. Five letter men will be back next season. Topeka started the season with a victory over Olathe. The following Friday and Saturday the team made its first road trip and incidentally received its first defeat. Rosedale was defeated with ease, but Olathe defeated Topeka in Saturday's game, 22-21. Three more victories were registered in the next three games but the fourth game resulted in a defeat, Kansas City, Kansas, being the victor, running up a 38 to 18 score. After the Kansas City game Topeka registered four more victories. Then came Kansas City in Topeka. It was expected that this game would be close. How- ever, Kansas City with their smooth running machine swamped the fighting Topeka five 44 to 17. This was the largest score run up against the guarding combination of Sproul and Brewster. The next feat of the Topeka five was to win the district tournament over 32 con- testants. Topeka defeated Mayetta in the finals, winning by a score of 36 to 6, and receiving the championship and the cup. The elimination of Topeka in the second round at the state tournament came as a surprise as Topeka had defeated Shawnee Mission in the semi-finals at the district tournament. The summary of the season is as follows: N. E. K. LEAGUE GAMES 1. Topeka . .... 29 Olathe ............. 17 At Topeka 2. Topeka . . . 29 Rosedale . . ..... 22 At Rosedale 3.

His consistent and earnest playing caused him to be one of the two players who earned a place on the Northwest Kansas Basket Ball League. His team mates fully realized his value as a guard and will miss him next year, as this is his last year in T. H. S. Richard Edmiston- Dick -Center Dick is far from being a short boy and he used his height to the best advantage. He was able to get the tip off from practically every center he played against. His Work under the basket was excellent although he didn't get to doing his best until near the end of the season. One of his best games was in the finals of the district tournament. He placed on the first all district team. Dick will be in Topeka high school for an- other year. Bernard Peterson- Bernie - Forward Peterson was a regular forward on the team this year, and attracted considerable attention because of his spectacular goal shooting and consistency on the floor. Bernie played forward on the second team last year. He will return to Topeka high school next year and will be a material aid in forming a winning team in 1924. Harold Sproul- Flash -Guard This was Harold's first year in Topeka. He came from Manhattan, where he was a letter man in 1922. He was an outstanding player in every game. He was a star at running guard, being a flashy floor man, a great defensive player and a dangerous goal tosser. Flash played more minutes during the season than any other player. He was chosen on the first all district team. Flash graduates this June. Page One Hundred Ten THE SUNFLOWER OF l923 George Darrow- Andy Gu mp - Center Darrow was the second high point man on the team, ranking just a little behind Tom Boyd. One of the best games George played was against Horton, in Horton, where he was high point man. George played the majority of his time at center, alternating with Dick Edmiston, but he played consider- ably at forward and George will again be seen next year caging goals for Topeka high school. Tom Boyd- Cap -Forward The 1923 season was Tom's second on the Topeka high school first team. Tom was an excellent goal eager, ranking as high point man of the Topeka squad. Tom's fine play- ing throughout the season netted him a place on the second Northeast Kansas league team and the second team of the district tournament. Cap played in practically every minute of every game, Sproul being the only player to surpass his record. This is Tom's last year in T. H. S. Gilbert Robe-Mike-Guard This June will see the passing of both of the regular guards of this year's team. How- ever, the outlook is not as black as it might appear and Robe is likely to be one of the best men in the league next year. Although Robe did not play very often, he played a strong game when he did play and showed plenty of fight. Robe is only a junior and will have another year in Topeka high school. Mitchell Foster- Mitch -Forward Mitch was substitute forward on the team this year. When the second team played a curtain raiser, he usually played right for- ward on the subs. Several times during the season he played in two games in one night. When Mitch got into the game the opposi- tion always covered him because he was an accurate shot. He will be back again next season. Page One Hundred Eleven THE SUNFLOWER OF l923 Second Basket Ball Team-Irwin, Stiverson, Macferran, Jeffrey, Andrews, Going, Graefe. SECOND TEAM BASKET BALL REVIEW The second basket ball team was a great help to Coach Victor Hurt in building up his first team this year. The personnel of the second team almost equaled that of the first, as the only thing lacking was seasoning. Six letters were awarded in the second team. The men receiving these were: Jeffrey, Stiverson, Macferran, Graefe, Andrews, and Irwin. Much praise is due these men for their efforts and their regularity to practice. The second team usually played a curtain raiser for the first team game, and it did not meet defeat on the home court. They won from Auburn, Lecompton, The Boys' Industrial School, Carbondale, and several other small towns around Topeka. The second team also has one victory chalked up against the first squad whom 'they defeated in a practice game by a two-point margin. The second basket ball five is coached by C. A. Hayes, instructor in the printing department of Topeka high school. The success of the team was due largely to his untiring work. Page One Hundred Twelve ,aims-as suns-woven or l923C1H .,,.-4 ax ' Track Team Baseball Team Page One Hundred Thirtee THE SUNFLOWER OF 8923 THE TRACK TEAM With six letter men returning to school from last year's track squad, Coach Hurt built up a team this season which was successful in nearly all the meets it entered. The men who represented Topeka high school on the track this spring were: Zook, Whipple, and Johnson, in the hurdles, Dawdy, Gossett, Lewis, and Boyle, in the dashes and relays, Walker, Harrison, Jeffrey, and Jackson, in the distance runs, and Aplin, Whipple, and Zook, in the field events. In addition to these, there were many other men who showed up well, and who will probably be regulars on next year's team. Harold Zook, who participated in the hurdles and field events, was the captain of the team this year. The track team entered the Washburn Invitation Meet, the K. U. Relays, the Emporia Meet, the Burlingame Invitation Meet, and the Aggie Relays. The Washburn meet was won by Topeka, and the relay team won second honors in the high school championship mile relay held at Kansas University. Captain Zook and Roy Whipple represented Topeka at the K. U. Invitation Meet, scoring a total of nine points. THE BASEBALL TEAM Although rather new in the athletic department of Topeka high school, the baseball team each year turns in a record which is even better than the average record of other sports in the school. Coach Hays developed an entirely new infield this year, starting the season with only five letter men back. The pitching of George Darrow was a winning factor in the line-up. The regular team was as follows: Jolley and Going, first base, Guhman, second base, Thorne, third base, Fowler, short-stop, Hanna, Captain Johnson, and Hall, outfielders. Although the team was not entered in the county league this year, games were played with most of the neighboring teams. SECOND TEAM FOOTBALL SEASON The second team football man, more than anyone else on a football team, has an absolutely thankless job, as far as personal glory is concerned. The second team man must not only ,play his own game, but must also act as a dummy against which the energy of the first team is directed. Yet, if the first team has a successful season, the second team has every right to assume that but for it, the season might have been a total failure. Therefore it is only right that the second team be given a share of the season's laurels. In addition to bucking the first team for an hour every day, the second team played several games itself. These games were, for the most part, out-of-town games, and were enjoyed greatly by the boys. The longest trip of the season was made to Tonganoxie. Owing to the fact that the lineup was being continually changed, good teamwork was difficult, because in each game, the first team substitutes were used in preference to the regular second team men. Because of this condition, many of the games were lost. Nevertheless, the second team, in addition to helping the first team, received many benefits from the season's playing. C. A. Hays, of the printing department, coached the second team and helped Coach Hurt with the first team.

The teachers of Topeka High School are all clamoring to have Fred Baker in their classes. It has been said that Mr. Baker makes more voluntary speeches and recitations than Mr. Hepworth cracks jokes. Doctor Greider says that when he closes his eyes to rest them during assembly, people accuse him of going to sleep. However, it is a known fact that the eyes rest easier when their owner is asleep. Ex-Quarter-back Phil N. Peyton has received several tempting offers from various colleges in the East. It is not known whether Yale or Harvard will benefit from the athletic ability of the quarter-back next year. Captain Harold Zook, of the T. H. S. track team, in a recent statement to the Associated Press said, I attribute most of my success on the cinder path to the fact that I always try to run faster than Philip Lewis can talk. Hence, I break recordsf' Mr. Lewis, on being questioned later, said, I am glad that I am responsible for the making of a man of the calibre of Captain Zook. However, I wish to state at this time that I made no especial effort to talk fast. Page One Hundred Fifteen THE SUN!-'LOWER or l923' PRIMER FOR THE LITTLE FOLKS This is the high school.

The sophomore kind are the ones with hard heads. The freshmen kind are the little green ones that play with toys. Those who do not flunk are said to have good luck. They can generally bluff their teachers. To bluff a teacher is to make her think that you are smart when you are not. Most teachers know that they cannot be bluffed, but we know different.
