Thinking thus, it comes to us what a great debt of gratitude we owe the faculty for its labors in our behalf. Those years might have been so much dull, hopeless toil had it not been for the cheering encouragement and the kindly advice given us. However, deep as our gratitude may be towards the faculty as a whole, there are those among their number that command an even deeper feeling of regard from us and they are our class advisers, Miss Jones, the genial friend of every one, and Miss Fowler, the especial guardian of the underclassman. Mrs. Nathan Gibson, formerly Miss Grace Elmore, was one of our advisers, until, to the regret of all, she was taken from us because of the very charms which endeared her to us. It is to these advisers that we owe all the success that our class has enjoyed. They have furnished the guiding spirit and influence that have so well directed us from the time of our first organization to the present moment when we face the end of our voyage. To them belongs a niche in the memory of all, that shall remain inviolable through the passage of time. Let us never forget them. The Voyage It was a clear, balmy day in the Port of New Discoveries, when the many new Adventurers gathered to start their voyage in the quest of Knowledge. There was much bustling and hurrying to and fro in the main port. The Adventurers were greet- ing each other, and the members of the crew. Each was busy with his own prepara- tions for the long voyage. On all sides there was talk of the trip, whether it would be monotonous, or whether it would be a harder voyage than the one just completed. All were eager to start. Finally they started. It was fair sailing just out from the Port of New Discoveries. The days were bright and many of the Adventurers grew more and more enthusiastic. There seemed to be nothing to mar a single hour of the day. The big ship carried them past many beautiful countries. Verdant hillsides sloped down almost to the place where they were sailing. Large buildings, rich in sculpturing, and brilliantly lighted castles from which came exquisite music, were oftentimes near at hand. There was something new at every turn. On board the great ship there were always fun, music, friends and laughter. Often they gathered on the decks to dance and play. Sometimes they sang some of their old songs and remembered the old days, but they were not nearly as happy as now, they thought. A great gateway swung open when they left the Port of New Discoveries. Well out on the way is the Port of Difficulties. It is situated up a narrow inlet from the beautiful bay on which the Adventurers were sailing. The crew warned ,pe 'T Page 48 As ,.,.... - A yx Ilflfzjf X, If, 4 ' .zf Y 2 2 M 11? ll ' ' : 'S them against this Port, told them of its dangers and advised them of the difficulties they might have to undergo in order to get back to the ship if they stopped here. Still a number of the Adventurers lingered. They had wandered about its narrow streets all day, and night time found them weary and depressed and with nothing accomplished. The crew and the main body of Adventurers were aboard the ship that stood out some distance in the harbor. From the shore the few who had stopped off at the Port of Difficulties could hear the merry-making on board the ship. They wanted to go back, to continue with the others on the voyage, they were afraid that the ship would sail out of the harbor during the night, leaving them stranded forever on this unfriendly shore. But they could not get back to the ship alone. It stood too far out. The next morning dawned clear. The crew were up early to look after the comfort of the passengers. They missed the unlucky Adventurers, who had stopped off at the Port of Difficulties the day before. They looked back toward the land and saw them gazing after the ship. The captain turned back and he and the crew spent much time in making the extra distance between them and the ship which now stood a great distance from land. They took the tired and dejected ones aboard and refreshed them for a new start on the journey. Again all went well. New friends are better when they become old friends. The Adventurers were now well acquainted with each other and the crew. Happy dis- course, dinners and luncheons together, new lands, new sights, new dreams, and new desires, crowned by ambition, kept the Adventurers busy. Then one night came a terrible storm. It was just outside the Port of Storms, where in the past so many, many Adventurers had turned back. For weeks they had been passing between high rugged hills, gray and forbidding for those who had not the foresight to glimpse the sunny lands that lay beyond. The discontented ones sometimes wished they might return to the land they had left before they sailed that day from the Port of New Discoveries. They did not want to give up all they had seen, for the fair days had been lovely, things to be remembered, but these gray hills-how much longer would they last? The crew talked of the gray hills as if they were to be expected on a voyage. The day of the storm the heavens seemed to yawn, letting down great torrents of water. The wind lashed in all its fury, round the curves of the gray hills. The waves leaped higher than the top mast of the ship, leaving in their paths great empty caverns large enough to swallow up the whole ship. Hour after hour the storm raged. Now backward, now forward, the poor Adventurers were tossed, always with the dis- consolate cry of the wind in their ears. Many of them held fast to the ship, comforting themselves with the thought that these dark days would soon be over. Others, and among them many of those who had stopped off at the Port of Difficulties, grew tired and gave away entirely. The storm swept them off the ship and they were at once sucked toward this most dangerous of all Ports. The crew, working hour after hour to keep up the enthusiasm of the Adven- turers for the voyage during this trying period, looked with sorrowful faces toward those who had given up. They tried to reach them by throwing ropes for them to catch, but always a wave would carry them just a little beyond their reach. Slowly they were borne away, until they were entirely lost to sight. With a sigh for the future of the lost ones, the crew gave them up and returned to their duties with the rest of the Adventurers. For months and months the Adventurers continued sailing. They left the rugged gray hills far behind them and turned again into the pleasant, quiet streams bordered by peaceful valleys and beautiful mountains. Often they. stopped along the way whenever anything particularly interesting appeared. They visited the great countries, learned about their people and their habits, their wars and their religions, and spent many wonderful hours in the quiet halls with the masters of art. Finally the voyage was completed. In a little bay close to the Second Port of New Discoveries the ship is standing for a little while. Friends are saying a few last words to the crew and comrades, who accompanied them. They hate to give up the old ship and its associations, but from the Second Port of New Discoveries another larger ship will sail. The Adventurers are eager for this next voyage, longer and harder than their first one, fraught with more forbidding dangers, but more complete and even more to be desired. ,Q 5 ' L A' Page 49 A Dick Strawn ...,.. sl A I 'n Q I Qflicers of the Class of January '25 SPRING '22 Richard Peyton . . .................... .. . .President Alexander Harvey .

During the first year of their high school career, the Sub-Sophomores were wandering, straggling Freshmen, unorganized and mostly unrecognized. But they came forward this year and put their right feet in to make their class the best the school has ever witnessed. To guide them through their high school course they chose Miss Mina McLatchey and Miss Jean Robertson. The officers, though new at the task, went at it like veterans.

Q 1 THE CLASS OF JUNE '27 FRESHMEN The Freshmen have only been finding themselves and getting settled in their course of study this year. Therefore they have taken practically no part in school activities. We have found them, however, very willing and cheerful supporters of all campaigns and athletic affairs. In this class lies the future of the school, the athletes, the scholars, the leaders, and all the types of persons which an up-and-coming school may produce. We hope they have enjoyed their first year with us and We have found them very agreeable companions.

They have something in their minds that is beginning to loudg another year and it will bloom forth in all its richness. Wait and see what the outcome will be.

One week before school started last fall, the coach could be found out on the grid- iron training the few early candidates for the coming strenuous season. He worked hard, and the football team, when at its best form, had no difficulty in proving itself among the best in the state. It piled up 134 points against 79 points made by seven of the strongest teams in the state. Coach Wynne, after losing two star players during the basket ball season, produced a team which ran a close second in the Northeast Basket Ball League, and a second team which won the county league championship. He surprised the whole state by putting the two teams in the district tournament at Washburn and bringing home two loving cups, for both first and second place. Besides excelling in football and basket ball coaching, Coach Wynne also is a fine physical director and track coach. He always instills plenty of fight into his men. He came to us from Great Bend High School, where he was coach. He was a foot- ball and basket ball star at Ottawa University, being named as an all-state man in both games. In addition to being a good coach and athlete, he is always a good sport and a gentleman, and strives to teach his men to be the same. He always advocates clean sportsmanship and fair play, and taught us how to take defeat with a smile, as well as victory. Every man who fought for Topeka High School under Coach Wynne gives him his highest esteem and respect, and will always remember Tuffy Wynne and his coach- ing thru successful seasons. '-SA V ' Page 77 -,7 .1 Q- . - ,- V ' ,- X ? , -7-','i'7' 16 c f' if i4f' AA Y -O 5' L 1 Q Q X WALTER JOHNSON-'fCAP -QUARTERBACK-160 LBS. Besides being the captain and leader, Ole was the best and headiest football player on the squad. This season he played quarter, but he is one of the best ends in the state. He was a consistent ground gainer and accurate passer. He was a good kicker and was watched by all opposing teams. He played defensive end and stopped many plays that appeared to be for long gains. He finished school in January but he will be remembered by football followers as one of the best examples of a good sport, student and athlete. VERNON GRAEFE- CUPE -HALF-BACK-154 LBS. To be acknowledged one of the best interference runners and hardest hitting backs on the team, to play a stellar game on the defense and to be a whirlwind on offense, is the record that Cupe Graefe has made at T. H. S. No man on the team had more ability, more grit, more perseverance, or more fight than Cupe. He was a clean, hard player, and could always be depended on. This is Cupe's third year of football and next year, as captain, he is sure to be a successful leader. The letter men of 1923 know of no one more suited to lead the team, and also wish him all the luck in the world for 1924. ' WILLIAM TOWLER- BILL -HALF-BACK-160 LBS. Bill played his first game at half-back this year. He ranked next to Aplin in ground gaining, and figured very prominently on the receiving end of the aerial attacks. The passing machine-Johnson to Towler-was always a success, and netted many yards. With the loss of Johnson and Aplin he will probably assume the kick responsibility next year. ATHOS APLIN-UFAT'i-FULL-BACK-184 LBS. Whenever a yard or two was needed at a critical time, Fat seldom failed to deliver. He was as fast as any man on the squad and had a stiff arm that helped in eluding many tacklers. He was the triple-threat man of the squad that kept the opposing team puzzled as to what he was going to do. His passes were fast and accurate. He finished school in January. Page 78 K S - ,J 'tx ,,.- fgiiif A l . , , ,, , -' ' fffaf lf A , sl -- r , S-,- HAROLD McKEE-- STICK -CENTER-157 LBS. Stick is one who is worthy of his nickname for he was the sticker of the squad. Nothing could stop him but injuries. His passes were fast and accurate even in the games played in the mud. It was his good passes that made it possible for the backs to gain ground. Altho he graduates this spring, he will be remembered by the team when the season opens again next fall. JAMES GOING-''JIMMY -FULL-BACK-147 LBS. Jimmy, while not as heavy and fast as some of the regular backs, was full of fight and scrap, and always did his part of the ball lugging. He was especially good on plunging the line and on off tackle plays. When in the game he kept the opponents on the alert, for he had a habit of making a few yards at the time when it was least expected. As Jimmy is only a Sub-Junior, he will have another opportunity to play for T. H. S. HAROLD BROUGHTON-MOH! HAROLD -END-141 LBS. Harold is another of the regulars that played his first game last fall. Harold played offensive end and defensive half, and with great success. His ability to catch passes and intercept them made him a dangerous man to opponents. Due to injuries he was unable to participate in the Seaman game, but his playing in previous games repaid for his absence. He will be in the line-up next year. MITCHELL HANNA- CHILE -END-1 54 LBS. Chile played his initial first team game against Wamego this year and from the first whistle he showed the ability of a veteran.. His pep made -him capable of holding down the left wing as well as anyone. Chile was the musiciagi ofllthe squad ' ' ' ' t t a ers and his songs, especially Carolina Mammy, served as entertainmen or e p y . when returning home from a trip or practice. He, too, will wear a T. H. S. suit next year.

The Count was part of the nobility of the squad. He received this title not thru lineage, but by hard work on the gridiron, where he ranked among the best players. His defensive and offensive tactics were a puzzle to his opponents, and contributed much to the success of the team. He was a hard worker and could always be accounted for in every play. Due to lime burns, which he received in the Wichita game, he was forced out of the line-up until the Lawrence game. The Count, tho graduating in June, will always be remembered. EINAR OSLUND- SWEDE --GUARD-1 5 1 LBS. Swede was one of the shining lights of the line, and his tackling and interference running made him one of the most dangerous guards in the state. Because of his speed he helped the secondary defense very much in breaking up forward passes and end runs. While in the game he was always doing his best and was full of fight. Swede graduates in June. LA VERNE ERWIN- HEAVY -TACKLE-162 LBS. He was one of the most consistent and diligent workers on the squad. He was also one of the best tacklers on the team, and the backfield could always depend upon a hole in the opponent's line when the play went to the left side. Due to injuries, Heavy did not get to play in the last three games, but his influence upon his team- mates was felt during those games. His only weakness was his admiration for the fair sex. Heavy is another one of our graduates. LEONARD PITSENBERGER-HPITTS -TACKLE-158 LBS. Pitts was one of the main factors in the defense, and with Erwin, made a pair of tackles that were hard to beat. Pitts could be depended upon to tear a hole in the opponent's line when the play was called thru his position. The opponents found him equally hard to take out of position when he was on defense. He graduates in June. Page 80 'xp 2 A -, .X ..,.. E x' X 17 1 -7 , 17' ,E , , ,, , ,L fl rg 3 A Y fl Ni ' Q '5T I 1 l L. ,, Nr- A . .,r, . , , HARRY IVE S- EVES -END-141 LBS. Harry played his first game with the team against Wichita. In this game he showed his capability and from that time on he alternated on the wing positions when injuries forced the regulars to the bench. He was a good receiver of passes and could always be depended upon to break up the opponents' end runs or move their tackles. He graduates in June. ROBERT MILLER-HSISTERH-133 LBS. To Sister belongs the honor of being the fastest utility man on the squad. His speed was a great asset to his ability in playing either end or half-back. Often he would dash away from his interference for good gains, or get behind opposing backs for passes, thus making him one of Topeka's most valuable men. Besides being an excellent athlete, Bob received an honor T for participation in other school activities. He will be back next year. ROBERT CLARY- BOB -GUARD-155 LBS. Altho not the largest man on the squad, Bob was one of the scrappiest and hardest hitting line men. He played hard in every game in which he took part and was about as easily moved as a brick wall. He was a good tackler and interference runner, and the backs could usually depend upon him to open a hole if it was possible to do so. He will have two more years to play for Topeka and should be a regular, probably filling the place left vacant by Ralph Clary. WILLIAM BAYLES- BILL -TACKLE-174 LBS. When bestowing honor Bill must not be overlooked, for he was the tallest man on the squad. Lack of experience held him back at first, but after playing in the Emporia, Manhattan, and Lawrence games, he finished the season like a veteran. On the offense he used his weight and strength to advantage, making holes thru which the 'backs gained. Page 81 N il. :W i- r -lf , 'lV1 i f fff i A fl Qggaf . AA - Y Q Review of the Football Season The season started a week before school took up, when about twenty-five boys began to report regularly for practice. This continued until school opened, when the squad increased to fifty-five or sixty, and then it declined until there were just enough for three teams. The boys worked hard in their practice to perfect the plays, and when October 6, came round they gave Wamego its annual beating. The game was played on a wet field, and handicapped the hard hitting Yellowjackets. Ottawa was the next team on the schedule and they turned the tables on the Yellowjackets by defeating them. This game was also played in the rain. Next came Leavenworth and Atchison, who were easily defeated by Topeka. Wichita was next and on a wet, muddy field they emerged with a 6 to 0 victory, which was a result of a sixty-five yard run for a touchdown on a returned punt. Topeka met Emporia the following week and they defeated Topeka for the first time in several years. Manhattan seemed to take up the work where Emporia had left off, and they, too, defeated the crippled Topeka team for the first time in several years. On November 24, Topeka met her ancient rival on the Lawrence gridiron, but went down to defeat. The crippled team out-fought and out-played the Lawrence team for three quarters, only to lose the game in the last few minutes of play. The final game of the season was played on the Washburn gridiron on Thanksgiving morning with Seaman High. A blinding snow fell during the entire game and caused fumbles frequently. In this game Coach Wynne used many substitutes, but Topeka's goalline was never in danger. The final score was 13 to 0, Topeka. Altho the season cannot be considered a success judging from the won and lost column, the team did well considering the lack of experienced players and the injuries it suffered during the season. Not once did it start with its regular line-up, and often it was necessary to use backfield material in the line. Next year's season looks brighter, as there will be eight letter men from last season and probably two or three men who had made letters in previous seasons. Besides these there is a large number of players who failed to make a letter this season who will be trying for positions. The results of the season are as follows: Topeka ...,......... 23 Wamego . ........... 0 At Topeka Topeka. . . . . 0 Ottawa . ........ . . . 12 At Ottawa Topeka 40 Leavenworth .. .. . 0 At Topeka Topeka 48 Atchison .... . 0 At Topeka Topeka. -. . . 0 Wichita . . . . 6 At Topeka Topeka. . . . 0 Emporia .. . 17 At Emporia Topeka 0 Manhattan 27 At Manhattan Topeka. . . . . 10 Lawrence .. . . . . . 19 At Lawrence Topeka. . . .... 13 Seaman . . . . . . 0 At Topeka 34 81 Page 82 .-' 'X ,i iz! - 1' If-7', -'7 A , , , , , , - ui-'-' ' M C3 .

He is a three letter man and has unusual ability in capping baskets. He was a good leader and played his best for Topeka last season. He was always in the game, fighting all the way, whether on defense or offense, and was especially good at getting behind the opposing guards for short shots. George graduates in June. BERNARD PETERSON- PETE -FORWARD Bernard won his first letter in 1923 by virtue of his goal shooting and his splendid floor work. He could be relied upon to shoot baskets from any angle on the court. He graduated in January and therefore could not play the entire season, but his playing was a feature of the high standing of the team during the games in which he participated. His success was due, not only to his basket shooting, but because he was one of the headiest players the school has ever turned out. KENNETH MAC FERRAN- APE -FORWARD Ape played his first season on the team this Winter. Altho not a regular at the beginning of the season he became so by constant practice. This enabled him to hit the basket consistently and thus insured him a position on the team. Along with his accurate shooting he possessed the ability to dribble. He made both long and short shots and kept the opposing team on the alert at all times. He graduates in June. MITCHELL FOSTER- MITCH -FORWARD Mitch was one of the few letter men left from last year's squad. He was good at short shots, but more consistent on the long ones. He was handicapped by an injured knee which he sustained in playing football. He, too, graduates this June, but he will be remembered by all Topeka High School followers of basket ball.

Z Z i -Z ll , 4? , -'ff - i ELVIN JOHNSON- PUSH-FORWARD Pus was a member of the squad last year, but due to illness he was forced to quit in mid-season. He was the midget of the squad, but a giant in defense. His defensive ability was one of his outstanding characteristics along with accurate goal tossing that made him worthy of a letter. He is the only member of the squad who doisbnoti, gfaduate and will probably be the nucleus around which next year's team wi e uit. BALFOUR JEFFREY-f'BAL -GUARD Bal was the other guard that made up the splendid defense that seemed to puzzle all opposing teams. He played the floor and proved to be a barrier to all forwards that faced him. Besides being a defensive man he was consistent at the loop and contributed many points toward keeping Topeka in the lead. His ability as a player can be credited to his obedience and faithfulness in ,practice and training while on both the first and second teams. He played three seasons on the second team. He graduates in June, leaving a good standard for succeeding guards. GILBERT ROBE- MIKE -GUARD Robe was one of the mainstays of the defense. He was especially good under the basket, where he did much damage to the opposing offense. Besides being a good defensive man he could be counted on to slip down the floor and shoot a goal or two and help in the offense. He graduates this June, leaving an impression on the mind of every spectator of some of the best guarding done on the Topeka High School court. LA VERNE ERWIN- HEAVY -GUARD Heavy was worthy of his name as he was the heaviest member of the squad. He alternated from one position to another. However, he played mostly at guard, where his speed was a principal factor in taking the ball from the back board and completing the play into the basket. He was consistent on long shots. ,w ig V K Page 85 K 4' ,J 1, ef KJ -J 52137 Q .ff 1. ,ff , ff ,ff I7 ,ag ,, 2,9211 f A '?,Z v. Q ' 9 Q Qx Review of the Basket Ball Season Basket ball practice started during the latter part of October, when several men reported for practice. This group, headed by Richard Edmiston and other letter men, began to work on the preliminary training, so that they would be ready to go when the season opened. When the curtain fell for the football season, following Turkey Day, Coach Wynne issued a call for basket ball men. Many responded, and plans were made immediately for playing the inter-class games. In these games the Seniors won the championship, duplicating the feat they had performed the preceding year. From these games Coach Wynne chose his squad and set out to train and develop them for the games which followed. Their first game was a victory over the alumni, preceding the Christmas holidays. On January 4, the first Northeast Kansas League game was played with Lawrence, which ended in a decisive victory for Topeka. Next came Leavenworth, Kansas City, and Atchison, who fell before Topeka, but on the return game with Atchison at Atchison, Topeka suffered her first defeat. Here the schedule was broken, due to the death of Captain Richard Edmiston, and the Horton game at Horton was postponed. The following week Horton was defeated at Topeka and Olathe fell next, only after an extra period play-off. Horton and Leavenworth were easily defeated the following week, but on Saturday, Rosedale defeated Topeka at Rosedale. The third defeat was administered by Rosedale on the local court the next Friday, after one of the hardest games of the season was played. Then came Olathe, who lost, after forcing Topeka to play an extra period, and on the next evening Topeka lost the final Northeast League g'ame to Lawrence on their court, taking second place in the league. The following week Topeka took the district tournament at Washburn College by defeating Osage City, McLouth, Washburn High, and Topeka Seconds in the finals, At the state tournament at Kansas University they defeated Chanute and McPherson, but were defeated by Due to graduation keeping up with her better this year than Coach Wynne has tunes, and has done Hutchinson in the semi-finals. of all but one letter man, Topeka will have a harder time in high standing in the league. However, the second team was for some time and can be counted upon to keep in the race. worked hard, tho confronted with many hardships and misfor- much to keep Topeka among the leading teams of the state.

Each day they reported to practice and served as opposition to the first team. They, too, played regular games with smaller high schools from neighboring towns, and also won the Shawnee County Basket Ball Championship. They were entered in the district tournament at Washburn College this year for the first time, and were runners-up. They played the first team in the finals but lost by a 25 to 13 score. However, the following week they defeated the first team during two practice games. The nine players who won letters this year include Captain Vernon Graefe, Harold Broughton, Williani Towler, James Going, Bernis Warner, Lee Johnson, Ed Parker, William Dumars, and Mac Forbes. All will be back next season and will fill the places left vacant by the graduation of this year's first team. C. A.

These. though not difficult, are interesting and in the course of time bring out much hidden talent. There were also many amusing and clever programs. The most important event during each semester was the publishing of The Scribblerf' This magazine was a compilation of the best short stories and sketches written during the semester.

Original stories, fairy stories, animal stories-in fact, almost all kinds of stories, are told and discussed by the girls. Although the past term has been a good one for the club, we are hoping that with its great possibilities, it will soon be one of the most active organizations of the school. Page 1 00 h S JA :? Fr..

CHUMOS One of those Who has won recognition for George Chumos, with his unusual ability in oratory, has won honors of which Topeka High School is justly proud. He won the School, County, District and Group D oratorical con- tests for Topeka High. He went to Kansas City on Saturday, May 10, and won the terri- torial contest, and on the following Friday, May 16, he won the mid-western zone contest. Tho he has won honor, money prizes of 2510, 2550, and 3750, and unstinted praise, he is still the same courteous, kindly, modest George. When in the sixth grade, he was publisher and business manager of the Quincy school paper. At the same time he was cashier for the thrift stamp sales in the school and became the only general in the United States in the Thrift Stamp Sales Campaign. While in this same grade, he won the all-state essay on The Money Cost of Tobacco and Alcohol. As scribe of the DeMo1ay he has earned the title of being the only scribe in the United States to hold that position for two years. These accomplishments give hope that George's habit of winning will carry him thru to victory and the 53,500 prize in the final contest on June 6 at Washington, D. C., where President Coolidge will preside. He will do his best and Topeka will be proud of him. Topeka High School is Ernest Stanley. His ability to formulate his own ideas artistically, develop them logically and then write them well enough to convey his thoughts to others, has won for him ,prizes in two state essay contests. I . , 1 The first was an essay written 1n c1v1cs class on 'lMy Home Town, with which, among about 200 contestants, he took third place. The subject of the second was Fire Preven- tion. In this he won first place with a prize of 325. Both contests were conducted by the League of Kansas Municipalities. I h Always busy with studies, activities 'or opt- side enterprises, Ernest has made his high school,course count in many ways. His prac- tical experience as editor of the World and manager of the 1923 Annual, his standards of scholarship which kept him on the honor roll, and his high ideals won for him the honors which were a credit to himself and his school.

The club is made up of the French III and IV classes. Mrs. Nelle C. Terrill, instructor of these classes, has always been the adviser of the club. Some of the programs, most interesting to the pupils, consisted of games, songs, spelling matches, short stories, and amusing anecdotes, all of which were given en- tirely in French. In addition to these, there were also interesting studies of eminent French scientists, writers, artists, and musicians. A few good Victrola records, which the club owns, helped to vary the programs.

This year the club was not organized until mid-term. After its organization, a cam- paign was carried on to boost the library and secure more books for it. Nearly one hundred fifty books were obtained, all of which were needed by the library. Miss Laura E. Ewing, dean of girls of Topeka High School, is sponsor of the club, and has been largely responsible for the many things it has accomplished. Page 105 S 'lm igpgrf' 453 , T .J ' .Y 4?

Z ? 7 - f il 2 AA ll gil b Q 5 Qx The Musical Qrganizations The most active organizations in Topeka High School are the musical organizations under the direction of Miss Grace V. Wilson. These organizations include the Girls' Glee, Boys' Glee, Second Girls' Glee, Orchestra, and Band. For the past three years the musical organizations have entered the state contest at Emporia, but, having won the largest number of cups each year, Miss Wilson decided it would be only fair to stay out this year. However, that has not kept the organizations from doing things. At Christmas time the music department gave an interesting program in assembly. The purpose ofthis was to raise money for the band uniforms. The first of the year the Girls' Glee and the Boys' Glee gave a program at the Kansas Day luncheon. Later the Girls' Glee sang a group of songs for the music supervisors' round table at their state convention. Because the Girls' Glee was becoming too large for one supervisor, a second Girls' Glee was organized. These girls, under the direction of Miss Berenice Fuller, have done fine work and have helped the other Glee Clubs in devotional and musical assemblies. Altho the orchestra has given no especial program this year, they have always been on hand at school entertainments. The Band, Miss Wilson declares, has advanced more rapidly than any of the organ- izations. When Miss Wilson came to Topeka High School there was no Band. Gradu- ally she succeeded in getting people interested, and now Topeka High School has one of the finest high school bands in the state. They played at every football and basket ball game, and with their new uniforms of black and gold, have added much pep and enthusiasm to the games. The biggest thing the Glee Clubs did this year, and the thing of which they are most proud, was the presenting of the operetta, Bells of Beaujolaisf' This was a success not only in the school but thruout the city. It meant practicing every night, and the making of costumes, but Miss Wilson and her organizations are always ready to do their part, even tho it means real work. . 1 GX Page 106 ' an J' f ,I- 'Q 1?

World Reporter The Art Club was first organized three years ago, and has since been a more or less permanent organization for the purpose of giving greater opportunity to those inter- ested in doing more Work in applied art than was possible during the daily class periods, and for others who might not be members of the regular art classes. The club met Thursday afternoons, but the attendance was not regular enough to make any single line of Work possible. The members were allowed, at their convenience, to carry on problems such as tooled leather, gesso, and batik. , 'ff If Page 112 2 - up t J Qi V .--c x ,--a ,S , 3 Zlff 131' I, 114 f -f 'Zz 1 Z A . -Y 'Y fl? tcm cf-P15 - 'S-, The Camera Club Inez Hill . ....... ......

Each member is required to know how to develop and print pictures. The club has a dark room where the members develop pictures taken the previous week. An enlarging machine is the newest feature of their equipment. They took their own group picture for the Annual this year, Many excursions and hikes were held on the regular meeting days. ,, ' p A A Page 113 l 1:1 Ri J3- 1f,?l x 1' 'I 71 1 ,' A A A Y W4 ' -fa i g l g Q N- The Polytechnic Science Club OFFICERS Fall Term Spring Term Nelda Cain ..... .....

The meetings are held every other Wednesday. The programs consist of interesting and instructive lectures, demonstrations, and experiments by the directors of the sciences. The average attendance of the club is thirty-five, which is high, considering the numerous outside interests that attract the students, and is largely due to the time and effort given by James Dickson, adviser of the club. A science club was organized in T. H. S. about thirty years ago but was abandoned. The club is proud of its recordg two former members have received patents for inventions. .

Chairman Social Committee The purpose of the Girls' Booster Club is to instill pep and enthusiasm among the students, and to back all athletics. Who does not have a vivid memory of the Lawrence pep assembly, given by the Girls' Booster Club in co-operation with the Junior Chamber of Commerce? Who has forgotten that cry of Candy, who Wants candy? at the football games? How willing the girls were to sell candy, that the hunger of the crowd might be satisfied! They might have been sitting on the bleachers enjoying the game. As a result of the enthusiastic Work of these girls, a considerable sum of money was accumulated in the treasury. This, the girls put to good purpose by giving it to the band to help pay for their uniforms. The club, sponsored by Miss Austin since it was first organized, has loyally done its part in helping to create and encourage all true sportsmanship.

The organization is sponsored by the Senior Chamber of Commerce and often aids that organization in Various civic activities. In school it plays an important part in many campaigns and assists Wherever its services are needed. Aside from this it is interested in the social Welfare and the high scholastic standing of the student body of the school. Its Worthy purpose and many endeavors have brought success to the organization. From a mere handful at the time of its inception it has now grown to sturdy proportions, having a membership of approximately seventy-five. G. E. Lindell, who is the adviser of the organization, is responsible in a great measure for the success that has attended it. ,QW ' b Page 117 A -L qi .1 T' ,i, 3' ,I L, i- I' -',r I fd xi ,f,' ,Q fl ,f 'I 'iffy I A lf l JN Ai K gl n Q The Girl Reserves OFFICERS 1924 1923 Doris Flanagan . . . ....

Their purpose is to create and maintain a high moral sentiment throughout the school, and to bring students into a personal relationship with Christ as Savior and Friend. One of the ways in which they fulfilled this purpose was by joining with the Hi-Y in devotional assemblies. Many interesting and helpful meet- ings, programs, talks, and parties were given. The Topeka High School Girl Reserves sent delegates to the conference at Estes Park, heralded as the most beautiful spot on earth, and they came back happy and inspired to serve the school and to tell about their good time. In February more than four hundred girls from all parts of the state were enter- tained here, at their annual conference. This conference brought to the girls inspira- tion and an opportunity to look inward to their own hearts, outward over the whole world, forward into the future, and upward toward God.

V ice President Fred Reitze ...... .. ...... Secretary Warren Olander ....... Secretary Quinton Graves ............ Treasurer Harvey Thomas . . . ...... Treasurer Always striving for the fulfillment of a definite purpose, to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character the Hi-Y Club is an organization which develops the four sides of a boy's life. Its primary interest is the proper spiritual development of its members and those with whom they come in contact. One of the outstanding features of the weekly meetings is the discussion of many subjects particularly interesting to high school boys. Through these discussions many doubts have been removed and many questions answered. At times prominent men of Topeka, as well as men from other places, are asked to talk at the meetings. As an individual club and in co-operation with the Girl Reserves, the Hi-Y has taken part in activities for the betterment of the school. The monthly devotional assembly conducted by these two organizations is one of the most important factors in this work. The management of the lost and found department is another service in which the Hi-Y has a part. At the time of the District Older Boys' Conference, in February, 1924, the Hi-Y clubs of the city provided three days of Christian fellowship, clean thinking, and inspiration for those who attended the meetings. These and other services typify the spirit of altruism which it is the aim of the Hi-Y to develop in its members.

If one devotes considerable thought, time and energy to the task, he may be able to find it, but we offer no guarantee, expressed, implied or otherwise, that said search will be in any way successful. Nevertheless we repeat that the book does have a purpose. CLASS CAPTAINS In every group there is some one student distinguished by his or her misbehavior. It has become customary for the group to choose some such person as this to lead them and be especially aggravating to the teacher. Whenever the teacher is called from the class room these captains are expected to properly direct and harmonize the uproar that always arises in such instances as this. REGISTRATION This is a small matter that the student is not expected to do until the second or third week of school. When he does start to come he is expected to report every morning to any one of the faculty that he cares to visit. It is the duty of this adviser to take the morning's inventory. The purpose of this is to find out how many pupils are still asleep so that the office may phone them and get them to school later in the day. Perhaps you may feel rather unfriendly towards these advisers as you come to know them better, but it is always well to remember that they probably feel the same way about you. AUTOMOBILES AND BICYCLES K Be sure and bring your bicycles to class with you as we can not be in any way responsible for them. Of course we realize that your teacher may object, but this is their only joy in life so you shouldn't feel badly about it. Automobiles and motor- cycles should never be brought unless they create an unusual amount of uproar, as we always like to know when you are coming or leaving us. A MEDICAL ATTENTION Do not hesitate to go to the school physician, Dr. Grieder, even if you are only slightly indisposed, as it might not be serious. He is only too glad to give you an excuse. However, if you are unable to find him, leave the school even if you do not have an excuse, for we are happy to see you go. ' LIBRARY One may draw books out from our own library at any time of the day or night, as it is provided for your benefit and not ours. One need never be very particular about making out the slips or returning the books, since the librarian must have some- thing to keep her occupied. STAIRWAYS These are freely provided for the convenience of the pupil, and all that is asked in return is that he observe a few simple rules as to their use. Always go up stairs and avoid going down stairs. Failure to regard this rule will not only cause a great deal of confusion but will be dealt with severely as well. FIRE DRILL This is provided for the purpose of giving the sleepier students an opportunity to arouse themselves by the fresh air. We cannot impress it on you too strongly that GX , ..,.e ' Page 122 ' D, A, 3 3 f ,ess 352527 ' ,f t l,-' lfglf f,. !,E F i. ,gy - 'fifilff you are not to hurry. You must go slow, as the faculty does not care to have such a great deal ot confusion and noise from the passing to and fro. ASSEMBLIES These are provided solely forthe student's entertainment and so he may talk, chew gum, and shoot paper wads to his heart's content. He is cautioned, however, against giving his undivided attention in view of the fact that he might not be able to get it divided again. In the past there have been a number of serious accidents of this nature. and so we can not take the responsibility for them. If a great deal of applause is given the student's third hour may be cut out, so you may clap all you please. Many of the teachers are a trifle old-fashioned and may object to your conduct, but do not allow them to spoil your fun under any circumstances. Did You Know- That Ernest Stanley has red hair?

He told her he was 'tGo1n' South, ' and she said, Keep Going , If You'll Come Back 'cause There's Nobody But You. He sent word to Tell All the Folks in Kentucky that I'm Comin' Home and after Just One More Kissf' went Tripping Along. . , The next morning, after having a nice Sleep, the conductor told him, f'You're in Kentucky Sure as You're Born, and so he arrived with Dirty Hands and Dirty Face. He kept thinking of The Only Girl, and that Maybe She'd Write, Maybe Sh-e'd Phone, or Maybe She'd Radio. When he wrote he asked, I Wonder Who's Dancing With You Tonite, and told her Don't Forget to Remember. He was Counting the Days until he could say, 'Tm Sittin' Pretty in a Pretty Little City, while she was Waitin' for the Evening Mail since her Sweetie Went Away. But In the Evening When Lights Are Low he met Nine O'clock Sal In a Cozy Tea Room. He thought, You Darling You, If I Canyt Get the Sweetie I Want, Tain't Nobody's Business if I Do. As he whispered, My Wonderful One, he thought Somebody Stole My Gal and that he better be Mindin' His Business, but not until he had developed a case of Forgetful Blues. Now she was known as The Gold Digger and after Last Nite on the Back Porch he wondered Why Did I Kiss That Girl? He decided it was best not to f'Linger Awhile, and as the weather man said, It Ain't Goin' to Rain No More, he returned to his Josephine as There Are Some Things You Never Forget. He confessed, I've Been a Fool, In Love with Love, but Do You, Donlt You, Will You, Won't You Love Me Too? She said, I'm Yours First, Last, and Always, even though Bit By Bit You're Breaking My Heart. Then he said, California, Here I Come, and we'll have a cozy little Home in Pasadena near 'tHollywood. But we won't go there as in Covered Wagon Days. From now on it will be The West, a Nest, and You. So now Mama Goes Where Papa Goes and no one is Lonesome and Blue. A Tragedy of the Barnyard Have you heard, the old black rooster said, What happened to Mrs. Rhode Island Red? Well, it seems, poor dear, that a week ago, That day that it turned so warm, you know, She thought it was spring, so she gave a squawk And started out on a long, long walk. The sun was warm for an hour or so, And then, you remember, it started to snow. She lost her way and wandered around And slipped and fell on the icy ground. And got home finally, dazed and weak, And so numb she could hardly speak. Climbed to her nest with never a word And-this is the worst I've ever heard-A Crouching down on her poor, cramped legs, She laid one dozen cold-storage eggs. . - fi Page 128 A 1 A .ff qi Yi, 155, If-TJ ,A X ,fL ' ' ,'Lf ,' f g l,,4f, 3 f r I' fmt- g l is-1 ---3 t Q xx E.
