S. this year after a three years absence. Formerly principal of the high school, he will again assume these duties next year. This year, however, he was the vocational advisor. This job included the establishment of a college home room, giving I. Q. tests and helping students decide what their vocation was to be. Mr. Lessig, our able principal, has been at Wellington High School for three years. In 1943, he came here to fill the place of Harley Stamm. During these 3 years, Mr. Lessig has guided the students in many achieve- V ments and activities. And he is now leaving Wellington High School to go S to Concordia High School.

Carter It was only six years ago that the class of '46 entered Wellington High School as confident, knowing seventh graders. How- ever, in less than a year we became conscious of the fact that there was still quite a lot we had to learn. As Freshmen, we were proud to head the Junior high. We even stopped running through the halls and started slamming locker doors with confidence. This year six boys and six girls were named as winners of the Lions Junior Award. Students selected for this honor were Patsy Atchinson, Faye Cain, Patricia Cook, Joyce Davidson, Bar- bara Dunlap, Dorothy Guthrie, Andy Baker, Robert Dare, Guy Goodwin, Jerry Hyndman, John Frazier, and Jerry Wright. We were led in our Sophomore year by D. L. Carter. He was ably assisted by Joan Mercer as vice-president and John Frazier as secretary-treasurer. In the spring our thoughts turned to parties and a leap year party was planned The girls escorted the boys of their choice to the high school gym. A large number of the class was present and it was a memor- i able occasion for the boys as it was prob- ably the only time in their lives that the girls paid all. A lot of the credit for the suc- cess of the party went to our sponors: Miss Dorothy Dey, R. S. Buchanan, Mrs. Marjorie Newberry and Virginia Reiniecker. Our junior year seemed to fly past as one event after another quickly passed. Ofur of- ficers were Bob Groom, president, Joan Mercer, vice-president, Virgil Kemp, secre- tary, and Faye Cain, treasurer. We took great pride in presenting our Junior play Anne of Green Gables, with Doreen Cook in the title role of Anne. Others in the cast were: Sally Wingate, George El- mer Weber, Audrea Hill, Dorothy Guthrie, Lois Wolf, Lois Harris, Jerry Hyndman, Betty Rengel, Alice Staley, Winifred Wilson, Lorraine Oppy, Ed Sargent, and Bill McKin- ley. Carnival was the theme of the Junior party. Booths lined the sides of the gym and everyone tried their luck at the fish pond and Visited the marriage bureau or make-up CContinued on Page 91 ..4- Emma Lou Kern Mary Ellen Boys Arylis Scates Jacinta Mae Jenkins Helen Wade Wilda Wallace George Elmer Weber Joan Mercer Patricia Cook Roanna Argo Estalene F'oyd Faye Cain Davis Helen Dixon Q Robert Holdaway Ramona Murray Q Elclora Chitwood Demrie Frankum XX A Alvin Dawson S Joyce Zimmerman ,y Mary Jane Rich Joan Merrick William Crisler Lorraine Oppy Nita Marie Burton Robert Dare Sally Wingate Barbara Dunlap Bruce Green A ' Winifred Wilson Gei ald Hyndman ,vw Ramona Smith Rich rd Altman John Charles Champeny Ethele Templeton Ben Allen Tharp Mary Sue Saunders Joyce Davidson Walter Richardson Betty Rengel Bonnie Cannon Fredrick Gasswint Lois Harris Alice Staley Joycelin Brown Dorothy Guthrie Ralph Luevano Lois Wolf Dorothy Davis Robert Shields Deloras Johnson Bertha Sorrows Martha Weed Bethel Jo Adair Pat Quinn Lila Hyten Jerry Wright D.

The high point of the evening was the box supper. The boys brought the boxes and the girls bid on them. Dorothy Guthrie and Paul Rader were king and queen of the car- nival. We were all grateful for the help of our sponsors who Were: Miss Kirkhuff, Mrs. Bingle, Mr. Oppy, and Miss Erma Foster, head sponsor. To complete our Junior year We enter- tained the Seniors at the best banquet given in Wellington High School. Our theme was End of the Rainbow and it was carried out in the decorations, place cards and the pro- gram. Since this was our last year in high school, every occasion had special signifi- cance for us. We presented our Senior play, Tish, with a grand cast headed by Betty Rengel as Tish. Others in the cast Were: Sally Wingate, Dick Altman, Alice Sta- ley, Eugene Robb, Bob Groom, Lois Wolf, Jerry Hyndman, Bonnie Cannon, Ed Sar- A gent, Lois Harris, Patty White and Tomasa Zavala. We could be very proud of our class. Bob Groom was president of the student federa- tion and presided over all assemblies. Patty White was vice-president, Barbara Dunlap, secretary: Lila Hyten, treasurer. We have had members in the basketball and football teams. Other members have been outstand- ing in debate and dramatics. A large per cent of the class was in Glee Club and A- Cappella Choir. Our sponsors who have given us so much help and encouragement this year are Miss Slark, Miss Jacques, Mr. Devore, and Mrs. Carter, head sponsor. We had our senior sneak day which ev- eryone enjoyed and We attended the prom which the juniors gave in our ho-nor. Now our last assignments are in and We are ready for our diplomas. Though we are looking toward the future, we have taken time to look back and remember the fun We have had in our days at Wellington High School and We leave with memories We Will never forget. Faculty Review Do you want to make a dress, cook a new dish, build a bookcase, or repair a brok- en table leg? Then see the teachers at the east end of the first floor and in the base- ment-Mrs. Bingle, Miss Kirkhuff, Mr. Sch- rag and Mr. Reinecker. If you wish to know about world pro- blems, consult Miss Clark's Modern history class. Miss Newton and Miss Mickey intro- duce their students to world affairs and world geography. Mrs. Carter instructs the juniors and seniors as to the meaning of the constitution and the history of their coun- try. On the second floor you can see boys and girls typing and taking dictation under the supervision of Miss Jacques, Miss Mark- ley and Mr. Oppy. In the English department you will find Miss Mulvaney, Miss Staufer, Miss Shockey, Miss Crouch, Miss Pickering, and Miss Dey. Miss Crouch adds the production of magni- ficent plays to her other duties, while Miss Pickering lends a hand of guidance to the Megaphone and Rambler staffs. Miss Dey doubles as Latin teacher, it is left to Miss Larner to add the cosmopolitan touch in the form of Spanish. Miss Snyder with her speech department and her debate teams ' n ' 1 ,g' A M L xg Tx lends much to the English and language de- partments. In the field of fine arts, Mr. Schmutz and Mr. Mountain are the guiding personali- ties to a better appreciation of and inter- pretation of vocal and instrumental music. Much of the effectiveness of a school de- pends upon the facilities of the library and the effectiveness of the librarian, credit for this goes to Miss Hall. Another supervisor who lends much to the efficiency of the school is Miss Glover, the school nurse. No school would be complete without a physical education departmentg ours has been capably guided by Coach Suran, Coach Hall and Miss Blazier. From 2 plus 2 equals 4 to a fb equals cfd our math teachers, Miss Lynn, Miss Cobb, Miss Bays, and Mr. Devore have tried to make us more accurate. Mr. Milliken keeps his room and every little bug in place while Mrs. Oyer creates those horrible odors that float around third floor. Back of these teachers and adding much to their efficiency have been Mrs. Mercer and Miss Cannon and their corps of office Workers. Many a knotty problem has been ironed out with their aid and many details are taken care of by them. And so we give you the faculty and as- sistants of W. H. S. Board of Education These are the men that have been so generous and so helpful in giving their time in dealing with the problems of the school in order to make W. H. S. a better school and Wellington a better place in which to live. G. A. Slothower is president of the boardg vice president is F. M. Rogersg Clerk, H. A. Richards, and treasurer, O. H. Sanner. Other members are R. A. Erbentraut, Wm. Snelleman, John T. Stewart and F. S. McNair. - W. ' 1 i Three members, Mr. Slothower, Mr. Snelleman and Mr. Erbentraut are serving their third term while Mr. Stewart, Mr. Rogers and Mr. McNair are beginning their first term this year. The board is divided into three groups, two members on each. The Building and Grounds Committee consisting of William Snelleman and F. S. McNair attends to the upkeep of the grounds and approves neces- sary repairs. The Purchasing Committee of John T. Stewart and G. A. Slothower is res- ponsible for adequate supplies any where from basketballs to chalk. The Teachers' Committee consisting of R. A. Erbentraut and F. M. Rogers makes recommendations for hiring teachers. r -l 2- fs ., X 'af 1 ,' I -V f , A ,,. ., 7 i. 1 - f , Y 3, f , . z f . I 4 1'V f , -I fx ' ' f a - , ' -.1 -I 1 1 1 ' R .

Perhaps one of our greatest assets is the domineering athletes of our class, ninty- nine and ninty-nine one-hundredths per cent of the male members participated in some sport. Several made first team football, while sixty per cent of the first ten in basketball hail from the mighty junior class. Knob Rogers, acting football and basketball cap- tain, has led the Ark Valley individual scor- ing record for the past two years. Another event which brought us into the lime-light was the unexpected case of scarlet fever, contracted by our basketball manager, Johnny Gasper. This not only meant a vaca- tion for John, but a week's delay for both coaches and basketball players. This was a brutal shock not only to the fans, but also to the girls who Were left waiting. Many juniors were staunch and hearty sports followers, and showed surplus pep and energy throughout the year. High Y, Girl Reserve, A Cappella, Boys Officers President ,...,...,c...... Warren Arnspiger Vice-president .c.............. Gerald Clark , Secretary .......................... Roger Davis Treasurer ........,......i.. Esther Lee Titus and Girls Glee Club are only a few of the activities we took part in. An unmeasurable amount of talent was displayed on the evening of November 28, when Growing Pains, directed by Helen Louise Crouch, was presented before a crowded house. The audience was temporar- ily puzzled, for it appeared that we had bor- rowed two Hollywood Stars to lead our crew of 18, none other than Margaret Linn and Gerald Rogers. The play proved to be a hilar- ious comedy and a raging success. After long discussions, thinking, planning, work, and decorating, we all turned out in our lovely formals and best suits to royally entertain the seniors with a banquet and prom. The American Legion Hall was gaily decorated, carrying out an appropriate theme. It proved to be a momentous occa- sion. Next year we are looking forward to an even fuller calendar, and, with our class, we can't miss. ...14.... ed Sophomores It might as well be spring, is, or should be the theme song of every one of the so- phisticated sophomores of good ole' W. H. S. As you wandered down the halls of our high school you could hear the industrious biology students of Mr. Milliken thinking out loud to themselves as to whether bacteria was a thousand legged worm or a type of tu- berculosis. Or maybe that was a scientist. Oh well! As you passed 108 you could hear the pa- tient voice of Miss Bays explaining to her brilliant geometry students why two and two equals four. However we are not completely ignorant! We have finally learned that we have plenty of time between classes, so, unlike previous years of rushing to our classes and ,lgnogzlging jf H' limit .ii H 1 Officers President .....,.................. Edwin Howell Vice-president ..i..... Alvin Herrington Secretary-Treasurer ..........................Clifford McEachern everyone down, we are seen lingering in the halls, whispering sweet nothings to our one and onlys. Queer as it may seem to you, we have ac- tually done some downright work. Almost all of our girls belong to G. R. and the great majority of boys attend Sr. Hi-Y. Besides these, we also take part in many music groups. Of course we wouldn't boast or anything but as far back as we can see, it seems as though we are the best bunch of sophs yet. So to the freshmen of Junior high- You have much to look forward to next year in being what they call - A SOPHOMORE I! , rs - l , f Q-,- vr.4 ,ziwrk I' f.. 9 A - , ' -' 2,1 mf' A. , 3 ., ' 1 '..,4, 3' ' if :'-, - ' ,.g,l9' ' ' i . 3 Jr. High Kings Once upon a time, three years ago, the present freshman class entered the halls of Wellington High School for the first time. Through the years, we have gathered other members and now we are the largest class in school-165 members. Now as experienced students we can tell what X equals, thanks to Mr. Devore, and are acquainted with Ivanhoe and the Lady of the Lake. This was the first year we were given the privilege of attending ia senior high party. Because we have so much excess energy, We were employed to clean up after the party. J. A. Seaton was elected to head Junior Hi Federation, while Clarence Cain was pre- sident of Junior Hi-Y and Glenda Jean Pilant was president of Blue Triangle. The junior high scientists in Mrs. Oyer's class proved that they could create as baffl- ing odors as the chemistry class. In the spring, the Lions Club presented awards to the twelve most outstanding ninth graders. Our freshman party was a howling suc- cess with even a few freshman wolves on the loose. The Junior Hi basketball team, which was composed mainly of freshmen, though not the Ark Valley champions, won a large percentage of their games and gained exper- ience that will help them when they are the Valley Champions two years from now! We were the first class to be required to take health under the new state law, and, now after two semesters, we can tell the dif- ference between the cranium and the fibula. In case these words sound distant we have also mastered Latin and Spanish. Now as we finish our third year with red flags flying Con our report cardl, we are looking forward to our first year in senior high as sophomores but we will never forget our joyous freshman year. ...151 Up A Step Well, here we are again, running rampant through the halls. Everyone else knows that we aren't any older or wiser than we were last year, but they can't convince us! We had a gay time at the first of the year, feeling and acting so superior towards the seventh'g1'adersg but when it came time for semesteifglexams, some of us were begin- ning to woisider if we would always be a grade ahead-of the folksgwe now consider our inferiors. - , We were busy this year with activities. The boys went to Hi-Y and basketball home- room and the girls liked the Sports Club and Blue Triangle. Dramatics Club showed that we had some talent for acting. s U Some of us were taking a foreign langu- age course and youi should have heard us R it-'. g . -, It -1 murdering the languages of the French, Spanish, and German people. Then, of course we learned that the first president was George Washington instead of Franklin D. Roosevelt, but our teacher had a dreadful time to convince us that a noun isn't a word of action. In physical education we learned how to stay healthy by practically killing ourselves doing exercises. Having the more scholastic side of our education well in hand, we concentrated our efforts on the domestic side of things, as at the beginning of our eighth year of educa- tion, we knew very little of the so-called do- mestic activitiesf' The boys were taught such' things as repair work and drafting in shop while the girls were struggling in foods, elbow deep in dough or stuck up in candy making. Whether or not we have learned much this year is yet to be seen, but in spite of the trials, we have had a lot of fun. We are all looking forward to next year when we hope to be the freshmen. .11 7.1 I fi 1 , ,l9g!' w 1 .11 ,vi ' .--' .5 'Q . 1-life Q f w,t. ,fi ' lv r 'P 'irkyarf .rg-: '.ff- ' . fi' A ' if . - - '!:gf'1fu-. N, 5-fre 'iq 1, We're CYUSHCICYS, Too Small but mighty we invaded the halls of Wellington High School for the first time last fall. We had looked forward to being here, and we found it was as wonderful as we had expected. We were assigned lockers and learned to work combinations-after much earnest practice. There were a lot of upperclassrnen who seemed to know all about the building, but to us it was just a maze of halls and rooms. The numbers on the different classrooms seemed to be always getting mixed up and causing us an awful lot of trouble. In no time at all we became full fledged Crusaders and began to take pride in the record of our football and basketball teams. We even became an important part of the cheering section. b We joined various clubs and began to take an active part in every phase of school life. It seemed as though time flew and we were always rushing from one class to an- other, though the upperclassmen apparently could not understand our need for running. Now, we have completed one year in high school, and we are quite capable of taking on the responsibilities and duties of the eighth grade. And if you want to know about a really super class 'just ask us! ..1g.. 1 4 'J f .1 f.. Ji 4 5 My Y ,I p'J li'4 ., X i,- YR. A 9 fe 9 . J x 1 , f , , A 7 A N 4 I 4 rf' wily!

If you is you will probably recognize the above group as the Senior A'Capella, under the present direction of Alvin Schmutz. By under present direc- tion, we mean that the group has been handicapped this year by working under two directors, plus substitutes. Miss Yates started the club, but after the intervention of Mr. Cupid and a few weeks of pinch hitting the group was fin- ally handed over to Mr. Schmutz. Besides being just a vocal ensemble that meets every Tuesday morning and Wed- nesday evening the group has proved a means of entertainment to many town's peo- ple. It had charge of the Thanksgiving mu- sic at the Baptist church and also sang for the Treble Clef Club. At the District Contest the group sang two numbers, that had been enjoyed by var- ious city organizations. The selection con- sisted of Madam J eanette by Allan Murry, and The Lord's Prayer arranged by the director's father. If you tried to classify this choral club by its songs, you would no doubt find you had chosen an endless task. A few of its ar- rangements include anything from, I Won't Kiss Katie a Kolo Folk Dance arranged by Walter Ashenbrenner, to The Lord's Pray- er arranged by Schmutz. The A'Capella Choir is an old and estab- lished feature of Wellington High School. Eachyear a new group of would-be McDon- alds and Thomases is -borrn. This year's class has proved the winner of much ap- plause from many local clubs and is aimed at the star of a more successful future. 1 ...Z 0.. 1' Cl BUllllCl front Roar' flefi lo right Se I f K za L Dorothy Shiclals Bonnie Cannon Lois Harris Cicraldinc Jonvs Vivian Arnislrong Dorccn Cook Joanna Pack Joycclin Brown Kathcrinc Ann Smith Mary Jan: Richards Martha Nklecd Baltbaia Lal-laryiw iiuih Xktiodii Neola XVamplcr Sally Garland Joanna Schrag Donna llumblc Virginia Armstrong Dcloras Johnson Marcelyn McCoy cond Rowflcfr to rig Jacinta Jenkins Margaret Linn Rae Stanver Barbara Dunlap Phyllis Fundcrburk Dorothy Davis Jimmie Cade XVanda Wamplrr Joyce Davidson Lila Hyten Joan Schwinn Patty XVhite Claire Mathews Minnie Xvoods I Q Ml- f '- fr K' 4 1,1 1,1 fC.ff.,1, ,f Q-1 , if lo-' ' 4.f-or , L fit 1 Ruth Berg Dorothy Glamann Ramona Murray Collulta Curtis Arlcnr Brown Buck Itou'--lvfl I ligll Grralil Landon Jatk Kcrstini Picirt' DcYov: Pat Quinn X Prob XValkcr Dick Altman Dean Patlcrsc n Paul Radrr Jack Mcrryman Bob Groom A Jrrrv Hvnclman Gcofgc XVcbvr Jimmiv Sannrr Virg Moore Yale Vlcathcrby Ben Tharp Richard Millrr Bob Uarz John Larson Alvin Rusk Earnest Bcdwcll Esmn Berry Bob lloldaway No!

Although they, 'ike all other groups, were organized at the beginning of the year un- der the direction of Miss Yates, were directed by substitutes, and finally settled down again with a permanent director, Mr. Alvin W. Schmutz, the double quar- tette managed to remain intact. Every VVednesday morning-early-at 8:00 A.M. found them gathered in the mu- sic hall to rehearse. They also met on Thursday evenings after school to run through their do-re-mi's. Like other music ensembles they sang at assemblies and for various groups. They also appeared at the district contest at Wichita University on April 5 and 6. Among their numbers were Nightin- gale, presented at the first of the year and Siesta by Schmutz, which they took to contest.

For a Treble Clef meeting in the spring they sang several numbers written by Mrs. Milliken. Other num- bers they presented are Ave Maria, Pierrot by Mark Andrews, and I Love You by Cole Porter. The thirty-four members of the Boys Glee Club met every Monday and Wednes- day during home room period for practice session. They did not make any outstanding appearances, but they are commended on their Willingness, their cooperation, and their contribution to W. H. S. culture. The Girls Sextet sang semi-classics dur- ing the season, singing at many civic organ- izations and doing so Whenever asked. In the District Music Festival the girls received a H rating. The girls deserve for their hard Work and contributions to W. H. S., to be such a success. .Slundmgff Doioihv lkivis, ilairl- Mniilirws, Jerry Jones.

Midst wild confusion Aggie was made to look skinny, and Lizzie very short and fat, whi'e Tish was just looking dazed. After arriving at the Eagle Hotel, run by Ellen Leighton, the three had a very confus- ing time trying to catch a bandit. Character- istically, Tish almost succeeded in killing her two companions, Aggie and Lizzie by taking them horse-back riding and later getting them doped while guarding the safe. As if this wasn't enough, she accidentally took Aggie airplane riding. Everyone lived over it, though. As crime does not payf' Tish did cap- ture the bandit, Denby Grimes, in addition to bringing two young couples together- Ellen Leighton and Charlie Sands, Bettina Trent and Wesley Andrews. As the final curtain fell, she was all ready for another adventure, to the distress of all concerned.

The excitinent started with the lights go- ing off and on in the library where the jour- nalism students were trying to pubish their paper, The Buglef' and the Kappas were holding an initiation in the basement. Each group accused the other of doing this but they found the answer with the appearance of the crazy chemist. Needless to say, the audience was kept in dreadful suspense throughout the spine- tingling performance. -se . Lllsworrh .,, Dick .

The Federation got off to a good start this year when the first Wellington Home- coming celebration Was held at the Well- ington-Hutchinson football game.

The queen's attendants were Sally Wingate, Mary Sue Saunders, Dorothy Davis, and Martha Weed. On October 19th, the Federation spon- sored the Halloween Hop, an all-school party, held in the gym.

Through rain and slosh, the Iron Dukcs gave the fans a Very sxtisfactory season. Under the direction of Artie', Hall and Cade Suran the Crimson and White was met by defeat only once. To start the season against Blackwell we won 12 to 6, which would have been worse for the Maroons if rain hadn't aided them. Then the highly touted East High Aces came to town and were taken into camp by the Crusaders, M to 6. The out-of-toivn papers had a hard tme recognizing this victory for us. Chilloco came easy and then Hutch came hard and gave the smaller Crusader club a sound 37 to 0 trouncing. This didn't blemish our de- termination as we turned around and won our 5 remaining games from Newton, Win- field, ElDorado and Ark City. Cn paper, we won 8 and lost 1 and piled up 189 points to our opponents 94. Coach Hall made advantage of our lightness and ran the T formation which baffled nearly every opponent. We lose 8 lettermen this year, Bob Dare Bob Groom, Bob Walker, Walt Richardson, D. L. Carter, Bob Shields, Al Shofner, and Jerry Hyndman, who gave a gallant ac- count of themselves. But with many familar names on the roster next year, such as Knob Rogers, Buddy Tomlins, Jack Merry- man, Dumbo Rains, Darvy Guinn, Benny Ybarra, and Jack Templeton, the little mites of the Valley may bring the title back to the halls of dear old W.

The youthful Cru- saders got only third in the Valley but got the same in the Class AA playoffs. The Cru- saders dropped one game to Newton in the semifinals, but gave Topeka fans a view of fast ball by downing Topeka, 49-365 Law- rence, 43-415 and Columbus, 52-51. The stel- lar player of the year was Harold Knob Rogers who was All-Valley and All-State on every selection and boasted better than a 15 point average 'throughout the season. Close behind came Ernie Barrett who hit a barrage of one handed push-shots all year. Through the year we won 18 and lost 7, piled up 1077 points to our opponents 924. The Crusaders should cop all honors next year with 7 lettermen returning plus some promising reserves. The reserves gave the onlookers an optomistic future. with Arn- spiger, Jerry Smith, Joe Smith, Seal, Patter- son, Burris, and Cartmill. Letterman this year Were: Shields, Howell, Hyndman, G. Rogers, H. Rogers, Raine, Barrett, Temple- ton, Dare, Tomlins, and Quinn. Those award- ed numerals were: Arnspiger, Davidson, Bill McEachern, Patterson, Sanner, Seal, Jerry Smith, and Joe Smith. -4 711 The Seasons Scores Were WHS 1 ll cm ,V ,1 WHS111 1 Ol-l c I3 1 V.'llS 3 ll f h WHS 3 I f WHS 1 x ll WHS111 40 x -.

Though they Won but four games, they played better ball than the records show. Of these, the most promising group is made up of Carl Black, VVally Altman, Steve Garrity, Neil Frank and Del McEachern, the latter being only an eighth grader. Also the eighth grad- ers gave a good performance this year. They won four of five games and took their own tournament by avenging a defeat by Win- field earlier in the season. The eighth were built around Del McEachern, Wayne Snead, Virgil Bedwell, Hal Mitchell, and Phil Mit- chell, also used as subs were Guthrie, Smith, Wingate, Jiminez, Caudillo and Leas. The freshmen played ten games this year, Win- ning four and losing six, and the eighth gra- ders played five games winning all but one of them. This season's experiences should give our smaller lads a good chance to cop the valley crown within the next two or three years. fl ROLL' lnwwncr lraiv.

They also sponsored and entered the Second Annual Wellington Relays. Studded with underclass- men stars the Crusaders gave a snappy ac- count of themselves. The team showed the desire to win under the direction of Cade Suran, and will be tough to beat in the fu- ture. Those who performed this year were Cain, Henson, McEach-ern, Holdaway, Good- rum, Smith, Seal, Groom, H. Rogers, G. Ro- Sargent, Dugan, Tomlins, Howell, gers, Frost, Templeton, Watkins, King, Showers, Gardner, Rains, and Heckes. All but three of these return next year. The Tee Off Coach Artie Hall put his first year into high school golf. Though some matches were lost on grass greens, or sand greens, the home town boys made a good account of themselves. They had 6 matches and parti- cipated in 2 tournaments, as due to early publication we are yet to know the results. The lads qualified with at least 36 holes a week. They had three returning lettermen, Bob Dare, Jerry Wright, and Pat Quinn. and were supported by Ben Tharp, Dick Miller, Bob Cartmill, John Williams, Bud Burris and Elf Landon. The latter 5 are all sopho- mores and will return to the home links next year. -4 9..
