Four graduates of '39 attained this H. . . igh scholastic record, and from this group was chosen Bob Lamar as the most repre- sentative Senior. Because of the ability he displayed in both Junior and Senior class plays, as well as numerous programs, Bob proved himself a 'iborn actor. Win- ning music contest awards with his French horn, and serving as chairman of the Class Day committee, he showed his interest in Trojanville. As a member of the Pep Club council and many other active school clubs, he proved his leadership. These achievements go far towards making him an outstanding Senior - one that can rightfully be called most re othing but A's during a hi h h presentativef, BOB BALLARD GLENN COGSWELL MAUREEN DEEVER PAUL STEPHENS President Vice-Presideni Secretary-Treasurer Social Chairman ,. .

I THE CLASS From its helter-Skelter Sophomore year, through its staid and dignified linal year, the Senior class of '39 might well be called the transition class. The proctor system, the finals, the lunch hour rush, enrollment - all have been changed during the last three years. Well do the Seniors remember the lax and easy days when a proctor was a mere soul who sat in the halls for decora- tive or conversational reasons. Who could forget the surging, pushing noon-hour crowds! Yet, despite these happy memories, the upper-classmen have given their loyal support to all changes. A small group of Senior boys and a larger list of Senior girls constituted the honorary cheering section elected last fall by the Pep Club at large. . Christmas time brought forth the usual formals given by the Senior girls, plus an added attraction in the at- tendance of Life magazine at one of the dances. fSee page 93.j Seven Keys to Baldpatef' presented by the Senior class, March 10, hit a new high in high school drama. March 24, the Seniors relaxed and enjoyed the junior- Senior Prom, remembering the trials and troubles they suffered as juniors while presenting the Prom. Directing and aiding the Seniors in all their activities, these faculty members acted as class sponsors: P. W. Chan- mess, Miss Virginia Welty, Miss Georgina Bleakley, Miss Merle Fowler, Miss Mabel Fry, and H. F. Ellithorpe. Moore Bowl will again furnish the setting for the long line of graduating Seniors on june 2, the last ceremony and the climax of their three years as high school students. Page 1 fig at 1 ,.

It seems impossible that the Juniors have accomplished so much during their brief stay in Troy Town' Only yesterday they were the bewildered little Sophomores who so hesitantly asked the upper classmen for guidance. Yet, tomorrow, they themselves will be the Seniors, working feverishly to- ward Graduation Day! , It is no small wonder that the Junior class has scored its many successes this year. A three-way tie for the presidency of the class in the primaries distinguished the junior election. When the ballots were counted, Dick Grabham came up president and has since proved his ability and dependability in countless ways, as have the other oflicers - Dorothy Ham, vice-presidentg jerry Kel- ler, secretary-treasurerg Lois Jean Benson, social chairman, and Harry Beerbohxn, Betty Ann Rhodes, and Virginia Ruth Scott, Student Council representatives. As a teaser to the junior play, the as- sembly featuring mechanical robots of soap- boxes almost stole the spotlight from the play itself. Although no idea of their own, the fact that The Youngest was presented on a Tuesday night instead of a Friday, is typical of the originality of the Junior class. Clarence Engle and Mary Wanner por- trayed the leads in the play, ably supported by the rest of the cast, all making The Youngest one of the most successful of the class plays. The Junior-Senior Prom was the second triumph and the supreme effort of the class. Thanks for this go to the Juniors, their oflicers, and the class sponsors: F. A. Mc- Coy, Miss Ellen Campbell, Miss Mildred Huddleston, Miss Ethel Frizell, and D. L. Erwin. In picturesque pastel formals, the Junior girls will end their second school year as they form the traditional Daisy Chain in the Moore Bowl during Commencement, June 4. The junior boys will make their last bows as juniors when they usher the graduating Seniors in the Baccalaureate and Class Day exercises. An exciting year as Sophomores and a full schedule as Jun- iors give the class of 1940 a promising out- look for able leadership in its Senior year.

SUPHISTICATED SENIUHS Long-faced Seniors with scholarly gazes, Stalking into High School, the hot stu1T', now, With cargoes of zipper-notebooks, paper, pencils, Ink bottles, high-heels, and .second-hand books l l l age THE More than 900 -Sophomores slipped through the portals into Topeka High School last September without disturbing the calm of the Troy Town in the least! In- deed it seemed they had been here always, so easily did they fit into the scheme of high school life. 'There was none of the frantic room searching that has always before accom- panied the Hrst few days of school. Only a dozen students were lost the first week. Laurels for this improvement go to the faculty members. As usual, they invited the new Sophomores to Topeka High School last spring to meet their teachers and in- spect the building. But the teachers did something new this year, too, by distribut- ing to the Sophomores a Hoor plan of the building, describing various phases of high school life and giving the names of the faculty. The Little Sister party, sponsored by the Girl Reserves, was another factor that made the girls feel right at home. C2 CLASS Campaigning with zeal, the Sophomores came through the election in the fall with as capable a group of officers as Topeka High could produce. They were: Gordon Dibble, president, Barbara Long, vice-pres- identg Barbara Duff, secretary-treasurer, Shirley Rogers, social chairman, and Jack Cummings, Bob Fisher, and Martha Men- ninger, Student Council representatives. The Sophomores' party, featuring danc- ing, games, and a handwriting expert, was the main event on the class social calendar this year. The success of the party was due to the line planning displayed by the party committee, headed by Gordon Dibble and composed of the other Sophomore officers. Faculty supervisors were Mrs. Esther King- man, Miss Mary Davis, Miss Ruth Burk- holder, Miss Maude Bishop, and E. L. Fink. Sports, debate, scholastic and social abil- ity are the qualities that assure Topeka High a top-notch graduating class in '4l. L, .1 ar Page 44 Row One: I-leer, Bunton, Robinson, Williams, J.

Everett, known to high school classmates as Bill Everett, president of the 1938-39 Student Council. Bill began laying the foun- dation of his law career in his junior year with membership on the debate team. He is a member of the National Forensic League and number one debate team, and has been called upon often to speak before civic groups. He has made the honor roll, earned a place in the journalism department as a stand-by, and led the Student Council quietly but effectively. When Bill achieves the place he is capable of filling, his hundreds of high school friends will - say proudly, I knew him when - - te Y U? vo qisvankgkesxnayies re . te 1 --hrs: ,me rs 1' ,wo anne r. 5 ea Pnvwlei 'EK-is wp my-,ia U ding mal' m owl H, dnil Wa T ww es! en8allaid x will flaiilcmldes nd fy PM Kgef' B 1 ou ZCii0lfL EQUE UE Tom Martin, election commissioner, and Betty Reed, clerk, set to work early last fall ensnaring Troystudes at registration tables. Aided by the faculty committee, consisting of Miss Robena Pringle, Miss Amy Swen- son, Miss Grace Wolcott, and H. Hoeh- ner, the election board accepted a record list of 126 candidates, cutting the Held to 37 in the primaries. Eighty-one per cent of the 2,003 registered pupils cast ballots in the elimination. Campaigning forces were active, how- ever, in the week before general elections. A tie for the junior presidency, coupled with liery oratory by oflicial aspirants in the election assembly, caused 1,510 stu- dents to troop to the polls on October 19 to vote their friends into ollice. Constitu- tion honor students worked at the three precincts, distributing, clipping, and count- ing ballots. Next morning found Bill Everett taking over the president's seat in Student Coun- cil, supported by nine representatives from the three classes. Bob Ballard was named Senior execu- tive. Dick Grabham won the trebly-coveted post ofvlunior class president by the ancient ruse of splitting the opposition. Gordon Dibble swept the polls in his Sophomore victory. Bob Menninger won the post of election commissioner, and Iva Ballard slipped in by ten votes to win the clerkship for 1939.

STUDENT COUNCIL After listening to and taking part in bombastic charges and counter-charges on various forms of student govern- ment during one of the hottest elections in recent years, the newly elected Student Council members were off to an inspired start. But enthusiasm died as quickly as it had been gener- ated, and with the exception of a committee attending a student council convention at Coffeyville, little was fcannmaed on Page llsl HUME PIUUM REPRESENTATIVES Considered last year as something of a problem child, always agitating for reforms, the Representative Council was reduced to a 'itemporary state of inactivity at the beginning of this school year by lack of reorganization.

FACULTY Twenty years as superintendent of Topeka schools is the record of Mr. A. Stout. Mr. Stout in 1918 went to his present position from the principalship of Topeka High. Besides appearing in Who's Who, he is a mem- ber of two honorary fraternities and has done graduate work at Columbia University. Mr. Willard N. Van Slyck, principal since 1929, heads a faculty of 81 teachers. His work has won him the high- est offices in state and national educational organizations. He has advanced student government and made Topeka High School one of the most progressive schools in the mid-west. During the two years Mr. S. H. Stark has served as vice-principal, the number of tardies has been decreased, W. N. VAN SLYCK, PRINCIPAL renin one.: Nellie M. Ansel, English: Edna E. Austin. Marhernaries: w, j.

Miss Helen Shirk assumed the ollice of dean of girls this year, following the retirement of Miss Laura L. Ewing. By her quiet friendliness she has already won the esteem of the girls of the high school. The faculty this year has been slightly changed. Miss Helen Dobson came into the music department to take the place of Miss Irene DeMun. Mrs. Lucille Ely was added to the commercial faculty. Mr. Kenneth Brinton is the new library assistant, and Mrs. Helen'Lewis has taught clothing part time in the spring term. Miss Nina McLatchey, for years a member of the faculty, died Sunday, September 25, after a long illness. . .W-. ...,...,.... ...wir ur wr... uyywrut tr Rau one: neu M.

For three years Ralph was a hard-hitting speed merchant on the gridiron, winning All-Conference honors as a half- back in his final season. His cage record consists of a year of training on the second squad and two highly suc- cessful years on the varsity basketball team. During the track seasons, he brought home many points with his swiftness on the cinder path. Cheerful, square-shooting, and courageous, he is a true sportsman in every sense. if my-'LQ - will Jwwzl EMM. . MMM Wm- Qwzf 5503- .Q if 1, M it I Page 59 Page 60 nb ,t N .

FUUTB LL Although their record was marred by one defeat and one tie, the 1938 Trojan gridiron warriors will go down in history as one of the greatest teams Topeka High has produced. With power in the line and speed in the back- field, the Men of Troy conquered six fighting teams and captured another Eastern Kansas Conference champion,- ship. In the season opener against Lawrence, the Weaverites had to be content with a 13 to 13 deadlock. Ralph Dan- ner, fleet-footed senior, accounted for both of Troy's touchdowns. Bud Morris, cagey quarterback, kicked the tying point, while big Clarence Eddy was a bearcat on the line. Against a favored St. Joe eleven, the Trojans hit their stride and blanked the Indians 20 to 0. Danner again was the big gun with two touchdowns, while Bill Palmer, sophomore fullback was credited with the third tally. Morris Zarker, blocking back, converted two out of three tries for extra points. Don Pollom, Topeka's brilliant fullback, broke loose for three touchdowns in the first quarter and added an- other in the final period to pace the Trojans to a 39 to l4 Win over Wichita North. Danner and Kenneth Johnson provided the other two six-pointers. Paul Hardman, run- ning guard, was a stand-out on defense, tackling Redskins so they stayed tackled. Manhattan was the next victim, falling before the Black and Gold, 0 to 32. Danner ran back the kick-off 85 yards a i as A . f I jf .4 VL.A ty - it Rag ,EI 5 wg Vqigi vig .

Pollom and Palmer contributed touchdowns and Johnson shot a pass to Ken- neth Nelson for the fifth one. Charles Short, junior tackle, filled in admirably for Eddy, who was out with injuries. The Trojan wrecking crew came from behind to smother a good Emporia outfit, 32 to 7, with Danner scoring his usual two touchdowns and tossing a pass to Eugene Lane for a third. Palmer smashed the Spartan line and Charles Zarker, junior quarterback, intercepted an Emporia pass for the fourth and fifth counters. Tom O'Neil and Wayne Sawyer were the backbone of a rugged Trojan defense. Then came the Wichita East nightmare. Topeka had an off day and lost 6 to 14. The lone score came when Johnson completed a pass to Charles 'Zarker. Harry Perry and Kenneth Rogers starred on defense. Rebounding from the Wichita episode, the proteges of Weaver and Erwin blanked a previously undefeated Wyandotte eleven, 14 to 0. Pollom dove through the line for both touchdowns while Matthew and Harley Parr turned in sparkling line performances. Ottawa went down to defeat at the hands of the Tro- jans in the final game by a 38 to 6 count. Pollom ac- counted for three touchdowns and Darold Davis, starting for the first time, proved his worth with an 18-yard pay- off play. Passes set up the other two scores, Danner to Fred Hill, and Palmer to Johnson combinations doing the job. Harold Van Slyck stepped into a first string guard job and it was also in this game that john Latti- more, Lucien Gray, Wendell McCall, and Jack Kil- martin were given opportunity to earn their letters. Aman. H ly d Dav D Page 61 A9966 Mk B 5.f ' 'Hr S The year 1938-39 was a season of ups and downs for the Trojan basketeers. Un- der the leadership of Coach E. B. Buck Weaver the Black and Gold amassed a total of nine victories and seven defeats during the regularseason. Included nithesewvere four wins and four losses in Eastern Kansas Conference competition, which entitled the Trojans to a tie for third place. Dick Shakeshaft was the high scorer in the league,and Bob Kirchner Hnkhed dnrd. The Men of Troy got off to a flying start by upsetting the favored ALUMNI, 21 to 19. In the first regular game, Kirchner tallied 12 points to lead his mates to a 25-13 de- cision over PARSONS, Vikings. Harry Ru- pin's clever ball-handling was an outstand- ing facun'in the 22-16 vkxory over the LAHRENCEIJOHS Prospects looked bright for a winning season, but a long losing streak was ahead. The ST. joys Indians scalped the Trojans, 29 to 235 EMPORIA whipped them 29 to 263 the CJTTAX-VA Cyclones swept them away with a 28-25 wing and ST. JOE gave a repeat perforniance by a 32-20 rnargin. At this stage, the Trojans came back to lick the lx'IANHATTAN Wildcats, with Ralph Danner topping the scorers. WYANDOTTE, the perennialjinx,wvas next on the pro- gram and triumphed, 32 to 25. The Weav- ermen then traveled to OTTAYVA and were trimmed, 32 to 23. Spirits reached their lowest ebb when the previously defeated LAXVRENCE lions gained revenge in the fornn of a 2l-l9 thriHer. CDH top of this Bill Palmer, promising sophomore guard, was injured and laid up for most of the seasong but the loyal supporters stood by the tean1,even in defeat Then came the turning point. An in- spired quintet of Trojans gave the dope bucket a terrific upset when they out- scrapped the Hashy WYANDOTTE Bulldogs. 26 to 23, in one of the fastest games on the Page 6 age 63 home court. Shakeshaft bagged 14 points in this encounter. Eugene Lane, veteran guard, played his last game in Black and Gold togs. EMPORIA was next, but Earl Lowe bottled up Harold Dody, Spartan ace, as Kenny Johnson came off the bench to lead the attack. The Troymen turned back the Spartans, 22 to 15. Another turn on the comeback trail was rounded when the WARD Cyclones, 1938 state champs, Hnished on the short end of a 31-25 score. The SOUTHEAST Knights from Kansas City fell, 31 to 125 MANHAT- TAN took the count again, 37 to 27, and the red-hot Trojans proved that their lirst vic- tory was no accident by crushing WARD, 32 to 17. Gilbert DeShon dropped in the last basket, as the regular season ended. HIAWATHA threw a scare into the Topeka camp in the first round of the Holton re- gional tourney, but the Trojans managed to eke out a 28-27 win. Allen Nipper chalked up 14 points as they bumped Hol- ton in the second round. Shakeshaft hit his seasonal high of 16 points when Topeka won its way into the state tournament by trouncing LAWRENCE, 28 to 21. With high expectations, the school turned out for the opening game of the 1939 tournament, hoping that this would be the year Topeka would bring home a state championship. A Fighting little team from HAYS had different ideas and stunned the fans by bowling over the Trojans, 31 to 28. Hays lost to Ark City in the second round. Ark City dropped a thriller to El Dorado in the semi-finals. And El Dor- ado in turn was thumped by WINFIELD as Gerry Tucker led his team to the cham- pionship. Out of the ten lettermen, eight are Sen- iors, with only two, Kenny Johnson and Bill Palmer, returning to the basketball wars next year.

With a nucleus of seas- oned veterans who are just approaching their prime and a number of promising underclassmen, the Trojans are considered one of the strongest teams of the state. In the first two meets of the year, Coach Fred Powers, lads romped over Salina, 100 to 29, and crushed Emporials Spartans, 107 to 24. Don Pollom, sensational hurdle king who set a national interscholastic record in the 220-yard low hurdles in his junior year, captured three firsts in both of these meets. His events are the low hurdles, century dash, and the 220. Charles Zarker, Troy's outstanding miler, won his favorite event by Wide mar- gins in both meets. John Christman cap- tured a pair of firsts in the pole vault and discus. Both javelin titles went to Paul Hardman, while Phil Haas proved himself the class of the half milers. Leslie Breiden- thal is an entry in the high jump, discus, and shotpittl Bob Hodgell does the high hurdles and javelin. Dick Shakeshaft has been slowed down by injuries, but is ex- pected to win some high hurdle races be- fore the season is over. Allan Nipper leaped 22 feet 2 inches to take the broad jump in the Emporia clinic. while Gordon outran the other quarter milers. Among the other performers who have been garnering points are Eugene Burke, Bennett Eddy, Paul Hurd, Forrest Slaughter, John Lattimore, and Ralph Danner, In the relay events, Ticehurst, Eddy, Danner, Hogue, Anderson, Griffith, Bracy, Douglas, and Slaughter have borne 'the baton carrying responsibilities.

The Topeka racqueteers swept every set in the massacre. Bob Kirchner and Jack Blakely will bear the brunt of the singles duties while Kirchner and Duane Smith and Karl Losey and Roy Shoaf will take care of the doubles. All five are Senior lettermen. john Smith, Dick Kell, and Dick Grabham are other members of the squad with experience who have been seeing action. GULF Seven linksmen turned out on the fairway at the opening of the golf season to train under the tutelage of Coach H. D. Shotwell and make their bid for a berth on the competing lineup. After a few practice sessions the Trojans made their early debut by journeying to Kansas City and outstroking the strong Wyandotte Bulldogs. 321i to 326. A week later, a quadrangular meet was staged at the Shawnee course with Wyandotte, Manhattan, and Argentine swinging their clubs against Topeka, The local marksmen again Hn- ished on top with a total of 334, which was lil strokes under the runnerup Bulldogs. Daryl Schoonover and Charles Menninger both carded 80's on the par 7l course to lead the attack. This season will go on record as one of the best for the Trojan golfers with Basil Temple, Jack Bonebrake, Dick Brown, Harlan Hobbs, and Bud Morris, teaming with Schoonover and Menninger to drive home their share of victories. h BASEBALL A six team intramural baseball league opened the first half of the 1939 season on April 6 under the leadership of C.

For girls in poor health, special corrective gym classes were conducted, giving them rest or exercise according to their needs.

Personality and personal development were topics of talks and lectures in gym classes this year. and one day a week was devoted to discussions and reports by students. Although membership in the Girls' Ath- letic Association has been slightly smaller this year those who joined the club have been really interested in its work.

Fay nniaz- enioz P Pl 0 Nl As the deep purple descended over sleepy garden walls, Juniors and Seniors piled out of shiny limousines and dashing Hivvers to gather inside the auditorium walls for a delightful program of musical and dramatic talent. The Prom atmos- phere settled over students and teachers alike. and the festive spirit of the French Riviera was quickly established. L'Hotel Cortillion throbbed with melody and the madness of youth. 'il Won't Tell a Soul I Love You. sang Birdie Garlinghouse. Sharil Zarcker was lovely in her Alice Blue Gown, and Faye Wallace lamented, 'il Cried For You. The boys' quartet sang wistfully of the Sweetheart of Six Other Guys. The henpecked husband evoked sympathy as the audience chuckled over the ideas of his socially-minded wife and their daughter, Gordon Dibble and Dor- othy Ham carried the leads effectively. As the curtain fell upon Virginia Grif- fee's version of Deep Purple, students in formal dress adjourned to the cafeteria for the rejuvenating rhythm of Charlie Bray's orchestra. Splashes of color floated across the floor. skirts swirled and swayed with the swing tunes, and Topeka High's upper- classmen gave way to a dashing adventure. The clock hands ticked aroundg pre- cious and guarded minutes slipped by. Couples strolled into the dining room where purple cakes with white 'K T. H.

A Bill Lutz, with his Hay Geyser program, won the S5 first prize, and Forrest Slaugh- ter with his Count Bassie piano arrange! ments was presented with the second award of 553. Out of ten great acts these two were in at the finish by the results of 13 ballots handed out to members of the audience.

Richard, the consistently oppressed and downtrodden baby of the family, revolted and turned the house into an uproar under the subtle direction of Nancy Blake, the beautiful house-guestf, With this as the plot, Miss Gertrude Wheeler's production, The Youngest, by Philip Barry, carried on the tradition of dramatic excellence for Topeka High School. Mary Wanner and Clarence Engle, working together as Nancy Blake and Rich- ard 'Winslow, did a fine job of overpower- ing the overbearing Winslow family. YVhen the curtain rang down on the year's hrst dramatic production, it ended another complete success for a Junior class. Shrieks, shots, and an abundance of keys kept the audience in a state of shivers and thrills during the entire presentation of the Senior play, Seven Keys to Baldpate. This play of George M. Cohan's, under the direction of Miss Gertrude Wheeler. sailed through one climax after another right up to the final scene, which turned out to be the biggest surprise of all. Lucien Grayys smooth and finished char- acterization of William Hallowell Magee, a suave, light-hearted novelist, was excel- lent. Royce Palmer, alias Myra Thornhill. a blackmailing siren, kept everyone won- dering what the scheming Myra would do next. Lois Larkins, as Mary Norton, up- held the romantic interest well.

Topeka High may well be proud of its band, which this year has helped at school rallies, adding color and life to the pep parades. It has entertained the crowd with special maneuvers at the games between halves, beside taking part in such civic enterprises as the parades for the Governors Inauguration and for Memorial Day. Under the direction of David T. Lawson, the band has had a most successful year, winning high honors in state and national contests, in both solo and group entries. In March it presented a festival in which the Swnphony Band.the Concem Band,and du:Junkn'Tropnstook part. including 150 players in all. It played for conventions, clinics and assemblies and broadcasted over WDAF on the Music and American Youth program. This year a new Symphony Band was organized to play in place of the regular band, which was too large for certain occasions and was not prepared to play the more difficult music that the Symphony Band was required to play. This group played for the Governor's reception. Piot only a Hue concert band to hear,'Fopeka fligh Schools band is one of the finest bands in the country to see. As it parades down the street, 90 members in all, it makes a grand display with its black and gold uniforms and flashing instruments and batons.

The clinic was composed of the best high school players in the United States and it is considered a great honor to play in this festival. Mr. Lawson served as representative and guest conductor. D4 VID T WSON Page 2 Ae UHCHE THA One of the finest organizations of the school is the 85-piece Topeka High Orchestra, directed by David T. Lawson. Composed of thirteen instrumental sections, this group includes many excellent student musicians. Much of the entertainment for Topeka's clubs and civic organiza- tions, besides music for school affairs and activities, is furnished by the orchestra. At the annual meeting of the State Teachers' Associa- tion, the orchestra supplied music in several programs. It played for the school revue, Say It With Music, one of the most important musical events of the year, and also in the combined music festival of Manhattan and Topeka. The members of the orchestra took part in other festivals and concerts, having the opportunity to play under the direction of several excellent and well-known conductors. Since the organization of the central junior high school orchestra, composed of the best players in all the junior highs, and the sight-read- ing orchestra, the Topeka High School orchestra will have trained musicians next year to take the places of the graduating senior IIICIH- bers, many of whom are first chair players. Most of the ranking players in each section of the orchestra are in one or more organized quartettes, string trios, or other small group and ensembles, which are trained to play for innumerable social functions. Every year the students in the orchestra are given opportunity to enter several contests, both as a group and as soloists. The line ratings received by different members signify the type of music they are capable of offering. Selections, ranging from classical and operatic to modern composition, are included in their repertoire to please any audience. if if - ' Q' E.: XL rg, ge 79 MIXED GHUBUS Vibrantly the voices of the Mixed Chorus sang the songs in the Easter assembly, the annual presentation of the music depart- ment. Throughout the performance the choristers took a dominant part, singing the numbers with forceful harmony. The program included the buoyant Halle- lujah, Christ ls Risen, by Wihtolg UO Filii at Filiaef' by Palestrinag and Today There Is Ringing, by Christiansen. In the age-old story retold in the school's annual Christmas pageant, two hundred fifty students from the Mixed Chorus sang the season's carols from the balcony. One of the memorable numbers was the Can- tique de Noel, by Adam. ' Through the year, under the direction of Miss Helen Dobson, the Mixed Chorus has given excellent programs. With a mem- bership made up of the less experienced students, it marks the first advancement for pupils of the voice classes. In this group they learn to blend their voices with other voices and sing for the first time in public programs. , Marjorie Horner and Ella Lichtenstadter have assisted the Chorus by furnishing ac- companiments throughout the year. This was Miss Dobson's first year in To- peka High. She came here from McPher- son where she held the position of super- visor of music for the public schools. Im- mediately after joining the Topeka High I faculty she was rushed into strenuous pre- paration for the Revue and State Teachers' Association meetings. In all the demands made upon her, Miss Dobson came through with flying colors and excellent programs. A CAPPELLA CHOIR Lvorisky's Hospodi Pomiluif' sung by the A Cappella Choir in the Russian scene of the Revue, found much approval from the audience, as a low light showed Rus- sians kneeling before the little gray church. Another number sung by the choir in the scene was the Russian folk song, Fireflies. The Choir has taken part in over l5 con- certs during the year, including their per- formance with the famous organist, Porter Heaps. They sang such selections as Beau- tiful Savior, by Christiansen, and Steal Away, by Ficher. - It is in this select vocal group, directed by Don M. Gleckler, that competition for membership is the most keen. The choir is an extra-curricular activity, all time being given outside of school. It meets twice a week, with regulations for attendance made by the students themselves. This group does no accompanied work of any sort. Soloists of the choir this year were Mary Campbell and Betty Jane Bowling. In the District festival the A Cappella Choir re- ceived a rating of Highly Superior and a recommendation to the Regional contest. Page 8 n ,f xr-1' I f , .,f W IJ 1 fl' sf' . t, J I. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB Snowballs flew and bells jingled, as voices of the Girls' Glee Club rang out in Say It With Music, the big musical revue. All year the Girls' Glee Club has par- ticipated in similar programs both at school and at public gatherings. Its members sang for the State Teachers' Association meetings and broadcast several times on Monday evenings over WIBW. They ap- peared also at the annual session of the Republican Women's Club in january and at the Parent-Teachers' Association Open House in March. In the District contest the Girls' Glee Club received a Highly Superior rating with recommendation for the Regional contest. The club has had a successful year under the direction of Miss Dobson. BUYS' GLEE CLUB Lazy gypsies and rustic covered wagons formed the background for the low, mellow voices of the Boys' Glee Club in the revue, Say It With Music, last fall. This was the First of many public appearances Mr. Gleckler's boys made this year. The group has given concerts for nearly all the junior High Schools, provided en- tertainment at many churches, and sung for the Parentffeachers' Association Open House. In the District festival the boys were awarded a Highly Superior rating and a recommendation to the Regional contest in Colorado Springs late in April. Soloists chosen for the District festival: high voice, Alan Doughertyg medium voice, Leslie Breidenthalg low voice, Paul Hardman. age 81 N frxfdg' f 5 W . v 1 , 2 f ..f:1fQ.w w-'ff I 5 w1MW2' ' 1 ' . .1 ' A , 1 , S A c11cn9 PW KA. x,-A ,N?M T 4lift Mmm WQQNI 0 HWWZQV figg ff5fW01'. .

This recognition has come through the hard work of its editors and staffs. L. M. Bud Cornish edited the Fall World success- fully, inaugurating new plans, striving for more com- plete coverage of news. Through his Willow Branch, Bud advocated revision of the school charter, a modified proctor system, more school-sponsored varsities, and com- plete annihilation of the two per centfy The first issue of the Fall lfVorld made its debut in full dress with an editorial page designed to be more inter- esting for the student. It came out with a new column width, and new Keynote type for headings. It bore an ear, dirt columns, and all. ' Talk about memories . . . we'll always remember the way Marjorie Armantrout peri-scooped everyone's pri- vate affairs before their owners knew them themselves! Oh, yes, the gossip column . . . we'll say no moreg enough's been said. V Extra! Extra! Indeed everyone gave a little extra at- tention to that alert sport page edited by G. C. Parks with his interesting Trojan Topics column. For once the student knew the secret personalities of his school athletes through Fred Hill's column, Meet the Boys. Bill Everett, as news editor, took charge of all news stories, no easy task. Don Wray, business manager, figured largely, for it was Don, the go-getterf' who worked furiously to make the World safe financially.

LD Reflecting the leaders'hip of Editor Dick Manley, the Spring World kept the average Trojan informed of what was going on in his particular world. A dignified paper was the spring presentation, paying more attention to straight and featured news and discontinuing the un- named dirt column of the fall issue. Mary Laughlin jumped into the business managership of The World and Filled that time-taking position capably and energetically, a fact worth applauding, considering Mary spent only her Senior year in Topeka High School. A baseball team for the school and more frequent sing- ing of the school song were the outstanding campaigns of the semester. The former, led and cherished by Paul Williams, sport editor, has yet to see action, but the school-song campaign may well be called a success. In February the editor announced a new policy: All news stories must be in on time or else not come in at all. This shocking announcement was met with near- mutiny, particularly by those individuals who woke up to the fact on Tuesday afternoon that a news story should have been in hdonday rnorning. floweven the pohcy succeeded, resulting in more order and less work for everyone concerned. A similar ultimatum was issued by the business staff with satisfactory results. A six-page World issued at the beginning of the State High School Basketball Tournament with a free copy to every visitor was the prime achievement of the season. 'The rknous.AprH l nsue,wvhHe R cannot exacdy be termed an achievement, evoked startled comments. age 87 Left to right: Meyer, one--. Nichole, cltllllmneycl-.

Printing and en- graving contracts were let, preliminary pic- ture schedules arranged, and subscription campaign plans formulated. Came the Hrst days of school, and those 2,000 sleepy Trojans became suddenly aware of the existence of what was to be a monumental publication. Alice Finney hustled hither and yon, making picture ap- pointmentsg June Holm spattered adver- tising posters in every directiong and the photography staff blinded the student body with Hash bulbs, fulfilling the desire of the editors to have everyone's picture in the book. Outside work bore so heavily on Bill Rigby, business manager, that he handed holl- het Ham' -Au mrllnfdr C . , . .fr-1 l ,,,- over his duties to Don Wray. Don took on the new job at mid-term with vigor, and succeeded in closing the fall campaign with his advertising quota exceeded. Rest for the weary was obtained in the annual Sunflower skit, first shot in the big parade. Then the Spring subscription campaign, opening with Sunflower Week featured a dance, an assembly, and a win' dow display, and focused the school eye on the sales drive. E Final act of the editorial staff is to sub- mit copies of the Sunflower to Topeka High School and then - home to sleep! l2nlToRlAl.fsenieri: Milrlred cnleninn, Shirley sehaefer, M.

DEB TE Winning first or second in five tourna- ments out of nine entered, the Trojan de- bate squad finished the season with a better. than average record. A Although the orators got off to a bad start at Pittsburg, where two Topeka teams were eliminated by a Fort Scott team, they soon began winning tournaments. At Wyandotte, the third tournament of the year, a four-man team composed of Harry Grassick and Bill Everett, Glenn Cogswell and Barton Bayly, captured second place. The team lost only one debate, that one to Newton on the negative side in the finals. The aflirmative side defeated the Newton negative. Next came the Harry and Bill as a two-man team came Russell and win first Salina contest, where through to defeat place. Harry came down with a cold just a few days later, and Glenn became Bill's colleague for the Emporia tournament. Although the boys had never debated to- gether before, they won second place, los- ing only in the finals to Fort Scott. Not content to rest on their laurels, the orators went through the Eastern Kansas Conference tournament undefeated. Harry proved his ability further by winning the unanimous decision of three judges for first place in the extemporaneous speech contest. Misfortune now fell on the team. First, it was found that the state debate rules 'YY G Number Ondlgtiziiker Scans Ngges would not allow two of the boys to make the trip to Denver for an exhibition match which they had been planning on for sev- eral weeks. When that difficulty was solved and arrangements were made for the team to go, it was learned that Bill Everett was ineligible for further debate in high school. Bill's ineligibility made it necessary for the team to return the Eastern Kansas Con- ference cup, as Bill had debated in that tournament. This also forced Edmund Mayer, de- bate coach, to use another man for his four- man team in the state district contest. Paul Moser, a sophomore, was the fourth mem- ber of the team, which won the district contest undefeated. With the exception of first and second places won by Harry and Glenn in the district extempore contest, there were no more wins by the Trojans. The last tour- nament of the year was the Wentworth Military Academy tournament, where Harry and Bill lost in the quarter finals to Springfield, Mo. -The 1938-39 season saw the Trojan de- baters get off to a bad start, then win five consecutive tournaments, and at last, be- cause of sickness and ineligibility, finish rather poorly. ln spite of their difficulties, however, it can truly be said that the de- bate team more than upheld the honor of Topeka High School in forensic contests. Page 9 H0 URARY :ga-fief QUILL AND SCROLL The aim of every high school journalist is to become a member of Quill and Scroll, the Inter- national Honorary Society of High School jour- nalists. Ability in journalism, a B average in grades, and outstanding work on the publications staffs are the determining factors in choosing can- didates for this honorary organization. Candidates must submit examples of their newspaper work to the national secretary for approval. New members were taken in at the end of each nine weeks - 30 in all. Initiation services were held at a banquet in the teachers' cafeteria. which was attended by more- than 50 young journalists. Bud Edmisten, president of Quill and Scroll, pre- sided, with Royce Palmer, social chairman, and Miss Hunt, advisor, in charge of initiation cere- monies. The Topeka High School organization is known as the Arthur Carruth, chapter. THESPIANS Membership in National Thespian Dramatic Honor Society is the highest dramatic honor a high school student can attain. This year was the tenth anniversary of the founding of this society, which was originated in the Fairmont Teachers College, Fairmont, YV. Va., in the spring of 1929. The Thespian Society was established to bring the production of high school plays up to a higher standard. Great progress has been made toward this goal in the last ten years. Eleven new members this year were added to the eleven old members. Harold Van Slyck served as president for l938-39. Miss Wheeler is sponsor. NATIONAL FUBENSICS Organized in 1927 the Topeka High ,School chapter of the National Forensic League grows stronger every year. This league requires candi- dates for membership to earn points through participating in some form of speech activity be- fore they can become members. Continued service and ability are recognized by the awarding of jewels to be placed in the mem- bership pin. Three debaters earned enough points this year and last to earn the highest degree. Harry Grassick, Glenn Cogswell, and Bill Ever- ett through participation in the state meet and a number of invitation tournaments re- ceived the degree of distinction, All are Seniors. age 91 NATIONAL wfwt SOCIETY Sophomores concentrate on daily assign- ments, Juniors take an interest in clubs and social affairs, and Seniors work toward honor and recognition in such societies as Quill and Scroll and Thespians. All three classes compete for Honor T credits. But the height of every honorary organization for high school students in general is the National Honor Society. Approximately 80 out of a class of about flve hundred fifty attain it, but everyone looks upon mem- bership with longing. Every Senior is judged according to the standing he has maintained in his three high school years in scholarship, service, leadership, and character. Therefore. the society is not a recognition of merit in one departmentg it means we must apple-polish every teacher in this building from the day we Hrst enter a home room until we're ready to leave with our diplomas. Scholarship is the first point taken into consideration for membership. To be eli- gible, Seniors must be in the upper third of their class, and only I5 per cent of the class may be chosen in the end. In some schools, juniors are initiated, but Topeka High reserves the honor for its Seniors Service and leadership would seem to be somewhat similar: but, in reality, both are important factors to be considered. Service indicates a willingness to take part in a variety of organizations. It includes the ability to pitch in anywhere and to con- tribute to school improvements and pleas- ures. It is what we like to call school spirit. Leadership involves an eagerness to take responsibility. We usually End it in the person who is enthusiastic about every- thing - from a dull chapter in the class room to a spectacular game of football. Character is the most diihcult quality to judge, for teachers may remember that we always gave' them a smile when we entered their rooms and brought them flowers in the spring, but they can't even make a good guess as to what kind of a night-life we lead or whether we're nice to our brothers and sisters! Final decisions are made by a special committee of faculty members. Every teacher is asked to compile a list of those whom he feels deserving from the names of eligible Seniors. From these recommenda- tions the committee bases its selection.

The pink-gowned chorus that - shall we say - ran after Herbie Rhineheart. 9 Speaking of cleaning up, Kilmartin cer- tainly took a mop to the old proctor sys- tem. Gone are the days when Romeos lingered at Sarah Colmery's proctor post. lfVe remember several other Juliets who were removed because they couldn't resist a good chance to talk. 9 The pep organizations came to the front this year with new sweaters and new cheer-leader jackets to match the teamls sweat suits. Which reminds us of basket- ball and football and their heroes. Besides smashing through lines Danner and Pollom became known as heart smashers, at least it became a permanent situation with Hatty and Griffee.

The campaign was exciting both in our school paper and in the city paper. Cam- paign managers were employed and com- petition was hot. Bill's been a capable and sincere leader and we're proud of him! 9 At the beginning of the year everyone was in a daze as to the new enrollment system, the change of homeroom period, and elimination of clubs and activity per- iod. Homeroom period which was held after second hour, at least kept some from skipping it. The enrollment plan was satisfactory to everyone except those who couldn't refrain from cutting up and were sent out. 9 The students really went in for swing this year. How could we forget the Rhythm Gobs and the Ambassadors. Remember the Emporia-Topeka Varsity? Then there was the Lawrence-Topeka good-will Var- sity. Whether it made us any more friendly is hard to say, but at least it was fun! The Christmas formals given by the Senior girls, when Life really came to the party fsee page 93D were something to remem- ber. The pictures never were seen in Life, but the trusty Sunflower pulled through. fContinued on Page 1102 Page 101 PEP CLUB Shakeshaft takes a pass, leaps into the air, twists, and drops the ball through the hoop. The whistle shrills-time out. Four black and gold clad cheerleaders scramble from their seats to the floor, shouting through their megaphones. Three hun- dred lifty sweatered Troy-fans give vent to 'iTopeka - Hey, Hey! Topeka - Ho, Ho! Come on, you Trojans - Let's go! Such scenes were envisioned at the be- ginning of the year by the executive coun- cil of the reorganized Topeka High Pep Clubs, and fulfilled somewhat tardily last February with the arrival of four gold satin jackets for the cheerleaders-Bobby Fisher, Harry Beerbohm, Basil Temple, and Clar- ence Potts.

Martha Euwer, Bob Lamar, and Marjorie Alexander made up the executive council, aided by Don M. Gleckler, faculty sponsor. Members labored valiantly to make the Trojan cheering section a rhapsody in black and gold. Sweaters and emblems for all were orderedg and, though the emblems failed to arrive, most members of the clubs were uniformed with slip-overs early in the basketball season. Four super-varsities were sponsored by the club in co-operation with the student councils and pep clubs of other schools. Formal action completed, the executive council looks forward next year to 21 pep section that will be fully organized by the first game, ready to fight from the Hrst trill of the whistle to the last minute of play.

NVilliams, Mcchcm, Marsh, onwcwc PEP CLUB Early last fall, every member of the Pep Club voted upon a list of Seniors for the Honorary Pep Club, with the result that 40 boys and 40 girls wore the coveted black and gold jackets and yelled with a purpose. These Trojan-Knights and Tro- janettes set an example for future gener- ations with their enthusiastic support of both football and basketball teams, win- ning or losing. Decorated goal posts at the football games were the first visible work of the Senior club, followed by the extra-efficient basketball season ushering of ten picked Ettes when the new seats were installed on the main Hoor. State tournament time brought new du- ties for the upper class rooters, the boys taking the duties of student managers for each team entered, and the girls working in shifts to help reserved seat holders find their places. e 103 HEY HEY WE TH BY TQM QE AN x D Orderly cheering was the keynote of the honorary rooting section, though some un- attached Trojans spoiled the effect by dis- courteous over-enthusiasm. Bringing sincere support to the teams in tight spots, this year's Trojan-Knights and Trojanettes will be best remembered for that inspiring moment in the Southeast game, when they spontaneously led a burst of We the Trojans go marching along! lfl, .wemazmm MISS NINA McLATCHEY DUANE AOKEBMAN '39 VIVA TOBBENCE '39 DOROTHY STHIMPLE '40 DONALD THOMPSON '4O Page 104 U U ? l N2 if-QQ Q-xlswass imma .

Yes, we really had a time in Ye London Limehouse, especially when such royalty as King Don and Queen Pat in- vaded it! 9 The football season reminds us of the pep-rallies. Those were the times, Trojans, when you really showed your school spirit -the parades-bonfires-impromptu bands -free shows-student speeches-and Potts yelling his head off. The favorite attire seemed to be overalls. At the games we were plenty proud of Champ Saralena and the T. H. S. band, which on a few occasions turned to the swingy side of things. Then came the basketball season and its tall, lank heroes-Shakeshaft, Kirch- ner, and Lowe. When the boys finally got going nothing could stop them except Hays when the tournament came along - and then it was a close struggle. Remem- ber the ushers-how could we forget Tracy, Neiswinter, Reed, etc., who paraded back and forth before the reserve seat section! Betty Reed just never could get the seats straight, result . . . all spectators had to keep changing seats. A tournament dance with Charlie Bray ended the season. All the gang turned out plus some i'Washburn1 ites who felt a little out of place among the high spirited highfschoolers - namely titian-haired Flossy and those perfect danc- ers Jean Norton and Cecil Bickford. fCUIlIfIIIlI'If on Page Il9j Page IIO 3 E 5 ' - W- ia-'asf -A .i'lfEZiF?Z ' . ., 4...

Late in the fall the Council found itself facing the perplexing problem of present- ing a new and different theme for the an- nual .-XllfSchool Party. With a London Limehouse district as the setting. the entire council plunged in with the determination to make the party the best ever.

Can you recall the looks on the boys' faces when Faye Wallace issued forth her first low note of I Cried for You . . . all silence, then a big sigh . . . if only the dates could sing like that! 9 Topeka fairly came to the front this spring in track - 100 to 29 - remember? Lucky we have such people as Pollom, Hardman, Danner, and Zarker. Undaunted by the rainy day, with scarfs to protect their curls a number of loyal Trojanettes watched the meet. 9 We also came to the front in social events this spring. Ah yes, we, the younger gen- eration are fast becoming sophisticated . . . to the extent of live spring formals. We may be sophisticated but our main problems are still enough new dresses to wear - and where to find money for the expected corsage. 9 In true Wheeler style the three plays presented this year were three more suc- cesses. Remember the Senior play, HSeven Keys to Baldpaten - Cornish's gun that wouldn't go off! . . . the cast which con- tractedanew illness every day . . . all part of the show. 9 And now comes another event to re- member, at least for us Seniors. The pro- cessional in the Bowl, the gaily colored daisy chain, our diplomas . . . our last farewell to high school before we choose our paths in life. No kidding . . . it's been fun, we've liked every minute of high school. well-at least almost. Yes, we're glad to get out for we can't stay with you forever. but there's something that makes us hate to leave. Sort of hate to say good- bye. but can't keep this up forever.
