May the kind fates who have smiled upon us this year continue to favor old Westport. As we go out from Westport's halls, ready for further con- quest in college or in business, we must pause a moment to look back over a year of achievement, of strife, and of victories, to point out its records with modest pride, and to urge the underclassmen on to further glory for the high school. A yea.r like the one just completed comes but rarely and is the sweeter for it. Who has ever before seen the victory column so full or the defeat so lonesome? We Seniors are glad that we can go out with such grand finale, because we have helped in a large measure to accomplish these things. A clean sweep in football, a championship in basket ball, along with the first victory over Central in five years, an unusual season on the track, in short, a year of honor for Westport. And besides this, in fact, preceding it, came the spirit which has filled the school, while enough has slipped out to surprise our rivals in the sports. Those of us who have been here four years know that the enthusiasm shown for everything has not been equaled in our time. It has been a spirit of win for Westport, and it has carried us across ahead of the rest every time. Calls for men, or money, or support were never neglected, very gratifying to us who have seen other conditions. We have had what previously had been longed for as the old Westport spirit, and in greater measure than had ever been hoped for. Lastly, we turn to the record of the work of the year. We are proud of this Herald. We think it embodies the thought of the year. It has been our aim to make it more truly a year book and a concise tabulation of the activities of the school, so that you may turn back to it and refresh in your minds the re- membrance of a great year. We have dedicated this Herald to our Westport patriots who died in the service of their country and of the world. It is with a heart-felt prayer of thanksgiving that the world conflict is over that We pay homage to our defenders who went gladly to the great sacrifice. May all of us and all of those to come look up to them as the ultimate goal of service to- ward which we, as American citizens, may strive for all our lives. - Again, farewell! All honor and loyalty to old Westport. The Crier Progress has been our ambition always. We have realized it in very definite form in the Crier. Continuing with our policy , -,.

Our ads have pro- vided the money for a paper of doubled size at the usual cost. Publishing the Crier met with difficulties. Hardly had things been first lined up when the flu ban hit us. -In spite of this we got out two editions during the holidays and ran on forced draft all the rest of the year. Needless to say, we are very proud of the Crier. We have worked with it and tried to make it a newspaper equal to the standard of the year. The dope has been presented in what we thought was a ,pleasing manner. In return for our labors we have had an unprecedented support. All of which we are very grateful for. With a new year we hope to progress in even greater strides, that is the we's who are not Seniors. To those we's and to all supporters of the Crier we wish good luck. Influenza Ban A Commencement on one of the last days of June, a six weeks' Vacation in the most delightful and usually busy time of the year, the shortening of courses of study, and the increase in the number of failures naturally needs ex- plaining. Kansas City was one of the first cities to be engulfed by the wave of Spanish influenza which rolled over the country. During the consequent bans on all public gatherings, the schools were closed and the pupils turned loose, some to profitable work, others to profitable and otherwise play. For unfailingly de- lightfully, warm weather, everyone was thankful, and the holidays were appreci- ated more in proportion. Then after a long period of idleness, nearly everyone went back to increased work and the cur- tailment of many outside activities which usually had made school life more in- teresting, and started to make up for lost time in a whole-hearted manner. This to the credit of the Westport of 1918 and 1919. ' War Work Last year Westport carried on an ex- tensive Red Cross Campaign. We became members of the Junior Red Cross organi- zation. Our Liberty Bond was given to that society. We held classes where hy- giene was taught by the Red Cross organ- ization. Our aim then was to relieve the suffering of those men, so gallantly fight- ing in the trenches. We hope that by the work we did that we alleviated some of their suffering. This year, the service has been de- voted to a broader scope of activity. Be- sides relieving the suffering of our soldiers, we have given our time to re- lieving the suffering of the people who have given everything to help the Allied cause. Without clothing, their suffering has been terrible, especially among the little children. Westport has made cloth- ing and sent it to them through the Belgian-French Relief and the Red Cross organization. lt will be years before Europe can hope to emerge fro-m the abyss of de- struction where the war has plunged her. The United States will continue to do everything to help her, and Westport, too, will help, because she is one hundred per cent patriotic. Military Training When we think of the work of West- port's battalion of cadets, we cannot but marvel at the progress made under the adverse conditions of the last year.

THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 15 the cadet leaders have achieved a degree of success in their work which is very unusual. To form a battalion of four companies, each with its organization of commissioned and non-commissioned of- ficers, to whip this unit into a smoothly working military machine, to enforce a discipline of private school standards in a public high school, and all this with boys whose knowledge of cadet work was practically nothing, has been the work of the military department of Westport. The victories of our battalion have been thoroughly in step with the spirit of the year. Progress has been striven for, and by faithful work and earnest co-operation, great progress has been made. , Extra Study Halls Following up the lengthened lessons and increased number of failures, came the seventh and eighth hour study periods, compulsory to pupils who had received invitations to them in the form of F's. One failure plus a greater amount of work would make a better grade the next time, figured the faculty. A deserved popularity was enjoyed at first, but after four weeks of a good thing, it did not seem quite so enjoyable, and good results were seen. Certainly the extra study halls were an innovation, and they helped to make up for the many days missed in the fall. Clubs Last year the societies of Westport were very quiet, not to say dead. But with the new school spirit has come a greater loyalty to the clubs. The old established charter societies have felt the urge of the new day and awakened to un- usual activity. It is now a distinct honor to belong to a club where previously the novitiate had thought himself doing the favor. All were interfered with by the enforced vacation, but they have recog- nized their opportunities anyway, and made the most of them. Some weaker ones were united into strong clubs of unquestioned life. Others have pulled out of the mud by themselves. But either way, all go to make up a distinct element in Westport life. ...lt-.1--.T New Yells When Westport teams started on their brilliant careers, the need of new yells to help out the old ones was promptly filled. Old familiar tunes were given up-to-date words, and they produced a big effect when first sung in Convention Hall. Too much cannot be said for the cheer-leaders who kept us on our feet and howling for the scalps of the enemy. They had the pep and the winning spirit, just as the teams they cheered and the yells they led in had. They helped West- port get the will to win. Sophomore Organization Another new institution, a Sophomore Business Committee, has been founded. The Sophomores have been an ambitious lot, being the proteges of the Seniors, and they started something hitherto un- thought of. The class also put on a mixer which followed in the footsteps of those of the Seniors in its success. The Sophomores are comers. Debating The announcement of the ban on inter- high school debates this year came as a hard blow to Westport's hopes of a clean- up in this field. The influenza epidemic added another black mark on its record r .-.C-Q-,-,77 5,:.:c7.f,:,1-1 mgng-r v Lu ff .3--in 5 A -.-nnu,,,,,:-.,.-,q :uc I : v'z-r:.um.1Ia-an-.a,f , 1- ,- 16 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. when it caused the debates to be called off. The despairing scholars found one solace however- Senate Debating. This form of verbal combat, originated by Mr. Humphrey, was tried out by his Public Speaking classes in a debate on the League of Nations in assembly. Its success was most justified since it offers a chance of speaking before an audience to a large number, -when before, few had been benefited. With a few changes, it should be made a permanent thing, not only for Inter-Public Speaking, but also for inter-class and society contests. l1 ' Mixers Mixers that mix are hard to find. Westport has had a number of the gen- uine article. Their success in making everyone feel easy has been partly due to the stunts which preceded nearly all of them. In staging a really artistic play, the Seniors lead all the others in the elaborateness of the entertainments. The jazz orchestra of one of Westport's pupils furnished music as good as that of out- siders and made the affairs seem more truly Westport. The excellent precedent of inviting the parents of the class of- ficers has been established, the mixers next year should follow their leaders. Enjoyable as well as profitable, the Mixers of 1919 are worthy of note. Senior Play A play which gave opportunities for acting of allkinds and yet was of direct personal interest to a high school aud- ience has been found. Such was the of- fering of the Senior Class of 1919. It was a big and difficult production, pre- sented in a big way. The spirit of the play is the spirit of Westport. The artistry of the players showed the ability and thoroughness of her students. The End of the Rainbow epitomized the Westport of 1919. Campaign of Friendship and Clean Living One of the most pleasant recollections of the Seniors will be that they organized and put across the biggest and best cam- paign of Friendship and Clean Living ever held either in Westport or in Kansas City. Unforseen conditions which necessitated its abandonment after three helpful days were the only mar on the otherwise smoothly running schedule, and these were not faced in Westport. Hard work and a good organization assured the suc- cess of the campaign even before it started. The opening rally for the boys caused a rush of applicants for interviews, as did also the first few conferences. The spirit of doing what was best for Westport also helped to put the meetings across. The girls' assembly with its well-liked speaker, also helped along the work of the High School Clubs. .. .. ,. ... ,.. .....w....u ... .. .,.f':. :.i,.....,.4...,.......,. -U . .1--. 1-... 11'-t'-infer gf-. -f - - - -' - ' ' 'v'f t 1' ' fa'vasv-azz:-u:::11..z:.ZeSv:Zf:Z?.:,:L4...L ,,.,,. ,. , , ,. , ,.

Besides the regu- lar work of the drawing classes, there have been other phases of art work stressed. Special attention has been given to the choosing of the appropriate and suitable. Apartments, small cottages, large houses, in fact, all kinds of houses, have been taken and fitted up suitably. A number of the pupils visited Suydam's Decorat- ing Shop and studied some of the ques- tions of interior decorating. Great attention has been given also to period furniture. The good taste that must be used to give it a beautiful and not incongruous effect was emphasized. Plans to visit many furnishing houses and study the furniture were made. When the Best Co., the makers of children's clothing, exhibited at the Muehlbach, the costume designing classes visited the exhibition. The biggest thing in the art year is the competitive work for the Herald. The top headings are competitive for the en- tire school, but the folk studying drawing always compete more enthusiastically. The Herald covers this year were uni- versally contributed by all four classes. With the exception of one Freshman and three Sophomores, the remaining pupils were Juniors and Seniors. Virginia Beck- er, a Junior, won the first prize, Ruth Roberts, a Senior, was given second place, and Katherine von Minkwitz, a Senior, was awarded third. There were five judges: F. C. Slaugh- ter, an artist of the Holland Engraving Co., Miss Henry, a Central teacher, Miss Brian, an instructor at Manual, Mr. C. T. McCown, an art collector, and Mr. J. M. Mott, a representative from the busi- ness world. The Herald wishes tothank these peo- ple who have drawn the headings and have helped in this way to make the Herald a success. Musical Contest This year when Superintendent Cam- mack, like the benevolent father in the dime novel, proclaimed the bans, the ef- fects were immediately felt in the Musical Department at Westpoiot. Besides having much of the time for instruction cut short, many activities were omitted. .To crown everything, The Pirates of Penz- ance, a light opera, was reluctantly given up. Pinafore was presented last year, and a slightly more difficult opera . ,,. ..- ,741-f.1:v 'z' :raisins-.r.-:ff 1 If' ew...-.--cf.-4-11,9'v-azww- mf -'-2'523121:-7511 ' - 'f f'1 A--'-'-'- - 'E ' - ' v The Orchestra was planned for this year. The cast had been chosen, and work on it had progress- ed to a considerable degree, when it was decided to close school two weeks earlier, and the arrangments had to be abandoned. 'This left the Spring contest as the most important musical event. For the first time it was held in the evening, and took place at Polytechnic Institute, Fri- day, May 16, before one of the largest audiences an affair of this kind has ever attracted. The rooting was better than in former years, and the Westport sec- tion, though small, was concentrated pep. However, the hearty support of the school as a whole is lacking. The Alpha Lyra Club and those who assisted it sang their best, but Northeast won all four cups, and Central the four seconds. The numbers were : Boys' Chorus .... Softly She Slumbers Lightly Girls' Chorus ...... The Dew Is On the Clover Mixed Chorus ............................ . . . . . .f'Good Night, Good Night, I-Beloved! The Orchestra In spite of the various interruptions, the orchestra of '19 has spent a very profitable and successful year. In two given, one on assemblies, programs were the day that Mr. Brewster gave a speech which Joseph on Theodore Roosevelt, in Harding and Manuel Newman, each gave violin solos, and one in the second semes- ter in which a French horn solo was play- ed by Thomas MclVIillin. It helped intro- duce several new school songs just be- fore the basket ball season. On the even- ing of the community meeting to decide on a soldiers' memorial, a short program was given. The orchestra also rendered great assistance at the soldiers' reception and dance in playing in the Auditorium. It also played at the Senior Play and at the Commencement Exercises. For a year in which so many activities have been omitted, this has been a tolerably busy and on the whole, a satisfactory one for the orchestra. - . - . - ,. .,.. .. -......,v....1 . ga az.:4.......g.:.,..,...-,-.-. -W... . --. . wm:'nm-..z:.1:.:,:.p,:.:.-.:L.:....,L...

A good play with an excellent cast, what more could be wished! James Darnell, as Don Indalecio, a wealthy farmer and a gourmand, was a scream, His solicitious wife, Rita Goss, was charming. Ruth Adler, as Maruja, the loved one of Carlos, did an unusually good piece of work, receiving many compliments from the Spanish de- partment of the University. Carlos Ray- mond Childs, nephew of Don lndalecio, and lover of Maruja, gave a perfect pre- sentation of a difficult role. His heart- rending cries of agony were so piercing and real that even the cast began to fear that he had impaired his stomach with the milk and vinegar which always quarrel. Adolph Larson was perfect as Pio, a timid student tyrannized over by his mother, who was certainly endowed with a woman's tongue. James Hynd- man, as Zaragueta, was well worthy to create fear and laughter in the heart of any man. Don Indalecio and his family were cer- tainly fortunate in securing such servants as Lila Wood, Adelia Coles, as Perico, and Howard Snow, as the hack-driver. A good servant is a rare jewel. A pretty Spanish dance between acts furnished local coloring. CAST - Lelia Wood G .......... ........ .... eorgla Rita Goss Dona Dolores .... - .. ..

A visit to the Dyche Museum, a picnic lunch on a Kansas meadow, a trip to the track meet, and the play as a climax in the evening were some of the events which will make it stand out clearly as a bright spot in the high school days of those who par- ticipated. A special car and all that it signifies, with a congenial bunch, added to the day's enjoyment. We feel satisfied that the Kansans were duly impressed, . . , , .. .. ... ... .. -..,.... ....,..- .....-...,..--..,, .,.,,.

When the college comedy, At the End of the Rainbow, was selected, the object was to get as far as possible from any previous pre- sentation, and with the substitution of our own Westport for the college town, to carry out the tremendous enthusiasm for the school Uabove all others on the stage. How well the idea was developed and how splendidly the cast entered into the free, natural swing of the college life may best be described by those fortunate enough to have seen the production. It was a comedy primarily, but there were moments tense with suspense and interest and it was then that the players rose to the true heights of dramatic perfection. Jack Mcffitt, as Robert Preston, a promising young lawyer, played a diffi- cult part with the ease and assurance of a star, while Ruth Weinberger, as his beau- tiful ward, won the hearts of her audi- ence by her appealing grace and ability. Ann Elizabeth Hill, as Phyllis Lane, made a typical college girl, led by the captain of the Varsity team in the person of Conrad Eckert, to induce a hesitating player into joining the squad and then finding herself head over heels in love with him. Johnny O'Keefe, of Caliban fame, played the part of the handsome player, Douglas Brown, to perfection. Marjorie Harbaugh and George Bates, two pledges and psuedo-servants, carried on a most charming love affair, the lat- ter's encounter with Jane, or Isabell Sears, the eccentric maid of the Theta Phis, furnishing a most refreshing bit of dialogue. Henrietta Shane and Ter- ence Clark, as Nellie and Dick Preston, tiffed and squabbled as any young mar- ried couple might be expected to do. Caro Mitchell, as the Imp or college ': G'1 - :.'?:e:-11:r1111:1xumz-.- ..--an m,R,,,.,.q,14'e:.5.1....,,:,....,:,,,-,,gv:mr.sYS:'vp-..c.,.,f :auf 22 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. freshman, Was the life of the party, so to speak, While Velma Rucker, as the Vampire, and George Berry, as her dupe, acted their different parts splendidly. Theentire play was charmingly done, never a hitch marring the smooth run- ning sequence of plot, and the interpreta- tions as directed by Mr. Humphrey gave the affair a finished tone so seldom seen in attempts of its kind.

Dj .Y 1 JW V X c..n.u LN ASSEMBLIES Our assemblies have been few and far between, but they have made up in qual- ity what they lacked in quantity. This year they have been of vital interest to the entire school because the larger num- ber of the assemblies have been directly connected with the war or with school life at Westport. We have been fortunate in having for speakers, men who have been in the thick of the war, and consequently we have heard a great deal of first hand in- formation. Then in athletics it has been a glorious year for Westport. Our victories have brought about some enthusiastic assem- blies, which everybody enjoyed. In all, the assemblies have been pitched upon a higher plane of enthusiasm and interest for the entire student body. No doubt, these assembly notices will recall some of the good times to you. iii- Our first assembly, on September 17, was presented as a musical. Mr. Claude Rader and Miss Womacks, violinists, and Mrs. Rader, accompanist, gave a very much appreciated musical program. 1 Rex Miller, a graduate of '13, addressed us in assembly September 30th. His talk was on Mesopotamia where he was con- nected with the Y. M. C. A. of the British forces. On January 9, the orchestra made their debut in an entertaining way. Then, Mr. Brewster, after throwing bouquets at our athletic teams, talked to us of unselfish- ness. The assembly on January 20th was de- voted entirely to athletics and war. Cap- tain Haas and Captain Reeves said their says, and then Mr. Edwards gave out fifteen letters to the first squad football men. Following this, the McLaughlin twins, Henry and Tom, gave some in- teresting reminiscenses of their life in the balloon school of the air service. .il- The assembly on February 4th was both unique and entertaining. Messrs. Homer and Jesse Kellens sang several of their college songs. Then Mr. Jesse Kellens talked on the subject, Let each man heed how he buildethf' As a conclusion, the cheer leaders were summoned, and some enthusiastic cheering ensued. ,..i..l The awarding of the basket ball W's was the purpose of another athletic as- sembly.

Mr. Shouse was pre- sented with a battle scarred basket ball by Mr. Harman, who also made a plea for track men to come out. The orchestra started off the assembly of March 13.in a thoroughly enjoyable way. The story of Westport's heroes was told by Mr. Foster. The assembly ended with a short prayer for those who gave their life for their country. On March 16, the boys met in the audi- torium to hear Mr. Hale Holden, who gave onevof the most interesting and stirring speches ever delivered from our platform. Mr. Holden spoke upon the advantages of clean living, the main purpose of the Friendship Campaign staged by the Boys' High School Club. The special assembly, March 18, for girls, appealed to them in that Miss Wigal, the speaker, understood high school life. The necessity of cultivating one's individu- ality was emphasized, because it is the one thing that is really ours. A new kind of debating was initiated in- to.Westport during- the assembly, March 25. The three public speaking classes of Westport clashed over the League of Na- tions question. This Senate debating was asuccess and no doubt will betried again. We have had many different war as- semblies, but perhaps the most interesting was the one on April 7, Dr. Abernethy relatedhis experiences while at the front and gave us a close up view of the war. The assembly on April 25, was opened with a rush by an enthusiastic War Camp and Community Service speaker, Mr. Twitchell. The main speaker, Professor A. S. Root, of the library department of Ober- lin College spoke of the 'fby-products of education. The assembly ended by sing- ing that never to be forgotten John Brown's Baby. I The assembly May 14 was marked with a number of unusually interesting events. Mr. Haywood made an announcement re- garding the Sons of the Revolution con- test, which is a yearly competition. Mrs. MacLaughlin then talked of Westport's soldier record and the reception to be given May 17. After two announcements by the Senior president and some entertainment from the cheer leaders, the girls' gym classes and the boys' tumbling team gave a very clever and appreciated program. ' Our Faculty Line Up Cupid and Mars have played havoc with our faculty line up this year. A great many new teachers have filled the places made vacant by our sadly missed last year instructors. , When Mars beckoned, Mrs. Liggett en- tered the service as hostess in a Y. W. C. A. Canteen in Long Island. Mr. Brooks left our French Department to serve as an interpreter with our army in France. Mr. Miller was absent from our Science De- partment six months, studying high ex- plosives for the Ordnance Department. Miss Hodshire and Miss Wilson suc- cumbed to Cupid, Miss Hodshire becoming Mrs. Crossman and Miss Wilson, Mrs. Sel- lars. There are some who left for other pur- Doses. Miss Rosenberger obtained leave of absence and is studying at the Univer- Sllly of Chicago. Mr. Roberts is now an . .. .. - .. . . 4 . . .. .

Mr. Campbell took up work at Polytechnic and now is out of teaching al- together. Dr. Ockerblad has left us after the one year he promised. Miss Waltner, our substitute last year, has also left us. There are many new faces, two of whom are familiar. Miss Hanna has returned to the History Department after one year's study at Wisconsin. Mr. Irion has also re- turned to our History Department after three and one half year's employment as High School Inspector in the office of the State Superintendent. Miss Platz is divid- ing her instruction in elocution between Manual and Westport. Miss Totten, in- structor in commercial subjects, is a prod- uct of the Sunflower State. Miss Miller, formerly of Manual, is now teaching math- ematics and English here. Miss Northrop from Polytechnic fills the gap in our French Department. Mr. Edwards, our new athletic director, comes well recom- mended from Missouri University. One other change has been made. Miss Klee- man has succeeded Miss Hodshire as girls' adviser. I 1 To those who have left us and to those new instructors who have come to us and especially to our old stand-bys, the Herald wishes the best and happiest of futures. Boy Scouts We can justly be proud of the work Westport Scouts have done this last year. September 30th all the scouts in the city who had sold 10 or more Liberty Bonds of the third issue were given a War Medal by the government. About twenty of our boys received one of these medals. Again in the Fourth Liberty Loan andin the Victory Loan the scouts- rendered valuable service as messengers and West- port was as usual well represented. We have also had a good showing in the scout section of all the numerous parades of the year. In the annual City Scouting Contest, three Westport scouts, Marvin Creager, troop 1, Dryden Hodge, troop 60, and George Lewis, troop 40, won first, second, and third place in the first class contest. We wish our scouts the best of luck next year and know that they will make a record of which Westport will be proud. Thanksgiving Offering Westport's annual Thanksgiving offer- ing amounted to one hundred and fifty- one dollars this year. A committee of eight, composed of two members from each class met and decided where the money was to go. The committee was Seniors, Euthalia Lavery, Stanton Miller, Juniors, Marjorie Thraikill, James Darnell, Sopho- mores, Evelyn Wyatt, Jules Rosenbergerg Freshmen, Lela Jesse, Dessa Skinner. They divided our offering among the most deserving charities, as follows: Mattie Rhodes Day Nursery. ............

Again Westport was honored when Al- fred Benjamin won a scholarship at Har- vard. Quoting from a letter sent Mr. Shouse: You will be glad to know that in the list of men who on the basis of their work last, year have won for this year scholarships in either the first or second group, is the following graduate of Westport: First group, Alfred Ben- jamin. Alfred was a graduate of '16 and at Westport he also was a success in everything he undertook. v .-11.1.1-.-1 Hudson Declamation Contest A new form of inter-school contest was established this year, but on account of the influenza epidemic it was impossible to carry out the plan. The contest is known asthe Hudson Prizes in Declama- tion. The plan was presented by Dr. H. H. AHudson, a well known physician of Kansas City. Prizes totaling 515100 will be divided yearly among the contestants representing the four high schools of this city. Dr. Hudson is much interested in the oral expression classes, and it was this interest that prompted his kind offer. The selections this year were to have been Old Glory by James Whitcomb Riley and its sequel by Dr. Hudson, but it is uncertain as to whether they will have the same selections next year or not. However, we warn the other schools that the flu ban only meant a postponement of the day when victory will arrive at Westport and give us a clean record in all major events. So here's hoping for the success of next year's oral expression classes. Thrift Stamps Over five thousand dollars worth of Thrift Stamps have been sold this year! That is some record for such a banful year. The campaign has been continued from last year, and Mr. Beckmann regu- larly visited rooms on the first floor, Mr. Hart the second, and Mr. Ward the third. Room 36, Miss De Witt's linglish Litera- ture class, has the record of being 100W every Thrift Stamp day. No comparison can be made with the sales in other high schools, as they have not been reported to the headquarters. A banner was to have been awarded to the school selling the greatest amount. Westport and S. A. T. C. Along with the news of the plans for the selective draft came the announce- ment that the United States proposed to form a Student Army Training Corps. This branch of the army was to consist of young men who had the necessary re- quirements for college entrance. They would take up their college work under government supervision-all expenses paid and thirty dollars a month. A great number of Westport graduates and some Seniors jumped at this chance. They have been scattered all over the country, the great majority, however, at M. U., K. U., and Polytechnic. i Sewing Classes and War Work The energy and enthusiasm of the sew- ing classes have been undiminished even though the war work at Westport has been less emphasized than last year. A VGTY creditable and appreciated amount of work was done by the classes last year.

Wu- - THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 27 hospital pads were the articles that were made chiefly. The work was done principally to re- lieve the suffering of the fighting men. This year, however, has been devoted almost entirely to the making of clothing to relieve the suffering of the people in the war devastated regions of Europe. The year started off with the work for the Belgian-French Relief. A great deal of time and effort was spent for this so- ciety, and twenty-five cunning little dresses and twenty shirts were the re- sults of their work. When the head- quarters of the Belgian Relief Committee at the Coates House closed the classes discontinued this work. Westport is also proud of the service the classes have given the Red Cross. A large number of childrens' dresses and underwear com- prised this work. The classes also darned socks and made 'luncheonsets to be sold for the organization. Westport is proud that she has had a part, however small, in bringing this war to a successful close. She stands ready always to do whatever she can to alleviate the suffering of those who have sacri- ficed, fought, and died for Democracy. .lil-l Pershing Week Campaign Pershing Week, September 6 to 13, was attended by unusual activity in the sale of Thrift Stamps. Westport went over the top, subscribing a total of nine- hundred and twenty dollars for Thrift and War Savings Stamps in five days. .ll...l-- Miss Kleeman, New Adviser Miss Kleeman has succeeded Miss Hod- shire as the girls' adviser. She has had a very happy and successful year in this capacity and has w'on the'confidence, re- spect and love of the entire school body. Miss Kleeman has had much to do in fur- thering class spirit, for she has helped a great deal in planning the mixers and the other student activities. Consequently a great amount of the success of the social year can be credited to her. So here's to the continued success of our new adviser, Miss Kleeman. u Senate Debating In the assembly on March 25th, Mr. Humphrey's innovation, Senate debat- ing, was tried out by his Public Speak- ing classes. The speeches were almost entirely extemporanous because neither of the teams knew which side it was to take until a few moments before the con- test started. The hour passed very rapidly, since members of both teams were clamoring for the floor all the time. The captains of the two teams led off with rather definitely outlined arguments. After them came all the rest, refuting points and making new ones during the whole time. The subject of the League of Nations was a popular one, and the affirmative side, in favor of its adoption, won a unanimous vote from the judges. Rex Miller, a former Westport debater of much ability, was a very impartial and well-liked chairman. ' 1- Five Westporters Die During the past year five of our best and finest Westport people have died. George Strother, a graduate of '12, one of Westport's finest athletes, died of in- fluenza. From Westport he went to Kan- sas University, where he continued to make a splendid record. Again we were very much grieved to learn of the death of Leah Nelson, due to complications of Spanish influenza. oWestport has missed this quiet, unassuming girl-the girl who n: - 4:24.44 .4 4.2.-..:..-1.,w-Q, ,-fn:q:u:Q111'11:sx12:.-..-..g4-...-.:. ,un .e4.5j:k:g:,1!72'-F.n .f 'VH' 28 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. was a friend to everybody. Eleanor Mc- Carthy of last year's Senior class died of influenza. Although she was not very well known, being quiet and rather unob- trusive, she was a splendid girl, kind hearted and sympathetic. Westport was surprised and grieved to learn of the death of Lidabel Tracy, who would have graduated this year. She was living in New Mexico for her health at the time of her death. Miss Tracey won the War Saving Stamp Essay Contest and her car- toons and sketches were a source of pride to Westport. Stella Guettel, a graduate of '18, died of heart disease at her home April 18. She was a double star gradu- ate at Westport and while at Smith the past year, she was a conpczentious and painstaking student. It seems hard that five of our young people should have died during the past year. Westport misses them sadly and wishes to extend through the Herald, her sympathy to the sorrowing friends and relatives. .. . BasketBal1 Yell Fests U V if At last we have found a way to show that we are back of our team, that we mean business, in fact, that we are out to win. It was this spirit that gave our boys the courage to beat Central twice. The spirit that was shown in those snappy meetings where we practiced our yells put that confident feeling into the hearts of our players. When they found out that the school believer: they could do it, that was all that was needed. Re- member the scores? ' V I A V Cadet Hop V Saturday, March 22, the First Battalion Cadet Corps staged their dance at .Mor- ton's -Hall. -The dance proposition has been worked on by former Westport cadet companies, but this year the plans ma- terialized. Westport's jazz orchestra, pretty girls, and cadets in full uniform, made the affair one of the most success- ful happenings of the year. The unani- mous opinion of everyone present em- bodies the hope that the Cadet Hop will be made an annual affair. Mixers Although the Mixers have been rather late in coming this year, due to our en- forced vacations, they have been the best mixers that Westport has ever had, in that they have appealed to everyone. They have furthered a feeling of good fellowship and acquaintance which would have taken weeks to form in the class room. The Seniors celebrated their first mixer in one happy jollification, a first class dance. The greater part of the Senior class was on hand, and everyone danced. The plaintive strains of Home, Sweet, Home ended a glorious success. The Juniors carried off their mixer April 10th with their characteristic pep and vim. The entertainment consisted of a series of stunts and the customary dancing. With refreshments and Jimmy Mitchell's jazz orchestra, the celebration was a real mixer. , .. The second Senior mixer was the most elaborate one Westport experienced. A clever quartet of stunts, some good dance music, 1'9fFGSh111Qnts,.a11d, an Oriental at- m0SDhere comprised aggood time. . .The S0D110m0re, classhas the unique distinction of being the first Sophomore class to have a mixer.

E Soldiers' Reception Westport's reception to her service men was held on the night of May 17, after only a few days of preparation. The entire building was covered with flags which hung on the Walls and festooned from ceilings. Masses of spring flowers completed the decorations which met the approving eyes of the many soldiers and sailors who came back to meet their friends in high school. It was one grand jubilee from the third floor corridor down through the auditorium where the 'orchestra played, to the gymnasium which was crowded full with dancers and on- lookers. It was really a big mixer of Westport students and graduates, and as such, was an unqualified success. lilil- HER SMILE A little sunshine brightened My weary life to-day, The birds began to sing and Remind me it was May. The flowers raised the heads to Disclose their colors gay 3 The whole world hummed with joy for The sun had shone to-day. A little sunshine helped to Dispel the shades of night, And make one Worldly weary To see the dawn of light. It showed me in its brightness The road so scorned-the right, and That tiny ray of sunshine Chased gloom far from my sight. A little sunshine in 'The form of one bright smile, By one who has the power To make things seem worth while, changed A world that knew no joy Into one that knows no guile. To her, it means so little, To me, just all-her smile. -Ruth Weinberger, '19, . . . .... , ... ..,...,-,.., .. lag. , Q-. :.a1....,..:.:..

That it had a part in the de- velopment of their characters, helped to form their standards and ideals, will be a source of pride and a spur to greater things in the hearts of Westport students in all the years to come. No finer lot of men could have been found in the country. Well trained in mind and body, they represented the flower of the nation's manhood. Most of them enlisted as soon as our country de- clared war. Practically all were college men who had had from one to four years of university military training. All that we know who applied for commissions re- ceived them, and the list of lieutenants and captains and higher officers is long. They took part in almost every phase of the war, in every department of the serv- ice. Nor has their heroism gone unre- warded by the governments. Many are the citations, Croix de Guerres, and other honors bestowed upon Westporters. On the service flag, only graduates and those who enlisted direct from school have been considered. It would be im- possible from so large a number of alumni to obtain an accurate list so soon after the close of the war. Nevertheless the names of 429 have been obtained, more than any other Kansas City high school. Many more attended Westport for a few years but did not graduate, and so they cannot be included with them. . Of these, eleven have made the su- preme sacrifice, and five more from the list which cannot be classified. A volume would not suffice to give justice to their patriotism and the spirit in which they gave their lives. They were all young, just entering on life, but they willingly gave theirs that the lives of others might be made safe and happy. Little enough can be said here, but Westport appreci- ates, as far as human appreciation can go, the nobility of that sacrifice. To these men, this edition of the Herald is dedicated: Charles Holmes McCoun, '09, VVilfrid C. Bourke, '12, Emmet Carry, '14, Renick Carson, '14, Guy E. Morse, '14, Ellison Luther, '15.

Charles Holmes McCoun Charles Holmes McCoun, '09, a gradu- ate of M. U., died in France Oct. 6, 1918, of pneumonia. He had planned to stay abroad and travel and his father had just sent him the money when he received word of his death. F Lieut. Wilfrid C. Bourke Lieutenant Wilfrid Bourke, '12, was attending Yale Scientific School when the war broke out. He went to the First Of- ficers' Training Camp at Fort Riley, and was made Second Lieutenant in the Field Artillery. He was transferred to the air service, however, and was sent 'to' the Officers' School for Observers at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. He was killed in an airplane accident when his plane struck a guide wire to an observation balloon, dashing him to the ground and killing him in- stantly. ' A ' A F Emmet Carry .- - s Emmet Carry of the class of '14, was one of the first to go. His many friends among the faculty' remember him as a quiet, ' reserved y fellow, old beyond his years, always faithful, and a 'man who could be depended on for the right thing at the proper time. He was a private in the 884th Infantry, 89th Division. En- listing in April of 1918, he saw service by August. He was killed August 26th, by accidental gunshot wounds, received while on sentry duty in the Saint Mihiel sector. Renick Carson t Renick Carson, was another favorite of the class of '14. He joined the Marine Corps in May, and was stationed at Paris Island, where he received his training. From there he was transferred to the Field Artillery School at Quantico, Vir- ginia. Here he contracted pneumonia and died. Lieut. Guy E. Morse Lieutenant Guy E. Morse, '14, son of our own Mr. Morse, entered the aviation division of the Signal Corps. After five weeks at the Officers' Training Corps at Fort Sheridan, he was made Second Lieu- tenant and sent to Key West to the Coast Artillery. He was then transferred to the air service, and sent to Austin, Texas, where he was trained for an observer. In that capacity he went to France, in September, and soon saw active service. On September 12, a pilot and he as ob- server flew back of the Hindenberg line and successfully located an advancing enemy unit. They were sent back on an- other reconnaisance, but they were shot down in an attack by seven German planes. Later Mr. Morse received his Dis- tinguished Service Medal. T Ellison Luther Ellison Luther, of the class of '15, died at Pascagola, Mississippi, October 13, 1918, of pneumonia. . He was in the first June draft, and, as he had been engaged in the lumber business, he was sent to the shipyards, where he contracted pneu- monia. He left a widow, also a West- porter, Berenice Myers Luther. I, Sergt. Elmer Wickline Sergeant Elmer Wickline, '15, was one of the greatest basket ball stars Westport will ever have.

He was trained at Camp Doni- phan, where he contracted pneumonia, from which he never completely recov- ered. He went to France as sergeant in Battery D, 129th Field Artillery. While in France he succumbed to the weakened condition in which the pneumonia had left him, and died. Charles IW. Jackson, Jr. Charles W. Jackson, Jr., was killed in an airplane accident at the training sta- tion at Urbana, Illinois. He graduated from Westport in 1915 after an active ca- reer. In athletics he was a member of the track and Senior basket ball teams. He was also animportant member of the High School Club and of the Irvings at Westport. On account of his versatility, his friends, both among students and fac- ulty, were numerous. James Y. Simpson, Jr. James Y. Simpson, Jr., was another popular member of the class of '15. He was a private in Company I, Sixth Ma- rines and the first Westporter to fall in actual battle. With seven others, he charged a machine gun nest June 8, in Belleau Wood, capturing one and destroy- ing another. He and one other were killed and the rest wounded. He is now buried in Belleau Wood. He was pos- thumously cited and awarded the Croix de Guerre. Sergt. Eudell Lusher Sergeant Eudell Lusher, '16, had a high school record to be proud of. Unassum- ing, almost to shyness, he went through school attracting little attention except the respect of his teachers and the ad- miration of his friends. He was a mem- ber of the Irving, High School, and Cir- culo Calderon Clubs, and was on one of the victorious debating teams. When we entered the war, he attempted in every way to get into active service, but was kept out for some time on account of his age. When he did get in, he worked to' be transferred to a branch where he could see immediate action. At last he went overseas with his own unit, a sergeant. He was killed in action soon after his ar- rival at the front. Frank Ehrenhofer The case of Frank Ehrenhofer, '16, was perhaps the saddest of all. At school he was a scholar of the highest type, and a poet of no mean order. He was a private of the Sixth Marines and took part in the battles ,of Chateau Thierry and Soissons. In the latter bat- tle he was blinded by shell shock, and was invalided back to'Eort McHenry, near Baltimore, where hisf-sister went to nurse him.. Two operationsnwere found neces- sary, the second of which proved fatal. His body was sent to Kansas City for burial, and a full military funeral was given. A Our Non-Graduate Heroes Of the five others-who lost their lives, Donald Baker died of pneumonia at Camp Doniphan. George Huff, who attended Westport for a year, was a member of the old Third Regiment. He was wounded in the Argonne, contracted diphtheria from exposure and died October 9. Law- rence Maclienzie was a corporal in a unit of the regular army trained at Eagle Pass, Texas, but also attended the Of- ficers' Training Camp at Camp Grant. ,-s',.31.y'ai?5L1':!4L1.1,: -.1 -' .n.14..f4:.eL:1-1-mgz, gg-g mfzuzvwnxumu-as-A-4:.5+T.,::1-:egg-ygpgqwnwnn-.sqlnufeg-gg-is-3-:,:s:1'.nn -1 .

The cadets entered into the work with the .greatest possible enthusiasm, and the in- terest did not lag but kept up until the end of the year. When one thinks of the mistakes and blunders that occurred at the first of the year N' as contrasted with the perfect work done at the close of the year, it is hard to believe that so much could be accomplished in one year. A It would be useless to relate the trials and tribulations that were undergoneby both the officers and men, but suffice it to say that they were speedily overcome. A new plan of training the new men was established this year. Each new man was put under the command of an old man whose duty it was to drill him in the marchings, facings, and the like. At the close of the instructions the old man that had the best drilled pupil was ac- cordingly made a squad leader. C The real drilling began with the arrival of the rifles. Under the careful super- vision of their squad leaders the men were instructed in the manual of arms and also squad maneuvers. It was due to this early training that the cadets made such a fine showing in the two parades that they took part in, the first being the pa- rade that launched the Red Cross drive and the second one being the Victory Loan parade. Preceded by the regi- mental band that furnishes some real music they indeed did themselves proud. Probably the greatest change made in the Cadet Corps this year was that of changing the uniforms. The blue gray uniform of the previous years was re- placed by the khaki colored uniform, con- sisting of cap, blouse, trousers, and put- tees. The West Point uniform would have done fine for dress occasions had the cadets possessed two uniforms, but it was not suited to outside drill. Another change in the Corps this year was the one caused by the arrival of the new rifles. Owing to the fact that the Seventh Regiment was short on arms, the Craig rifles used last year were therefore donated to the National Guards. This caused the cadets at the beginning of the year to be minus any rifles whatsoever, with the exception of a few carbines. However, after about a month's delay, which gave the new men ample time to become familiar with the drill, the rifles arrived. The present rifles are a Spring- field model, and while they are of an W cnc-fx WW.:v f.wa-vp+-ws: .wwf wow- - 'aww wx 'i50?fl2Off:?2.HCD5CDCDCDCIIH ?rsD.1Q-Y'?CPff1w-nb ?l'T141cD531-fb' dw WWW' 'vb nw in W 'vw -'iw WFQMH A W -'--4'-if-'Y wwvv-ww-W A,-Vv,A,,-- --n-,,,,4,-,A,vv,-- . -,,,.,--,, . - , E f if M .www The Cadets . . , - E. .. ..- gg- V r --1-3'vqv-q-,jg,-r5gL1,-gr -- -41..z4r1.z,4,4-4v:.:.

The cadets have indulged in several hikes this year, fromp which great bene- fit was derived. The hikes were con- ducted in true military style and were in- structive as well as interesting to all. Along with the drill the cadets were 'taught the two arm semaphore, and though difficult at first, every man suc- ceeded in learning it, as was shown by the examination that was given at the end of the first term. Taken as a whole, the work this year was up to the highest possible standard that could be asked, and we only hope that in the succeeding years the cadets will accomplish as much as has the 1919 Cadet Corps. Competitive Review Judging from the results of the com- petition, held May 24, the Westport Bat- talion was not as successful as in the previous year, as we lost both the bat- talion and company drill to Northeast. However, the signaling contest was a clean sweep for the local boys, their two teams, George Bates and Milton Mc- Greevy and Dryden Hodge and Jack Chesney, placing first and second. The day started with an inter-company contest in the First Battalion to decide which company was to represent West- port in the final competition between the four schools. Company D, commanded by Captain Bulkley, was adjudged the victor, taking third place later in the day. Regimental review followed as soon as the other battalions had assembled. The battalion competition, which followed, went to Northeast. After a long period of rest for lunch, the boys were assembled and marched down to the field to view the drill of the crack companies. company F, of North- east, Company M of Manual, and Com- pany D were very closely matched, finish- ing in the order named. The cup was accordingly awarded to Company F, that Company and Companies A and C of Westport, each having held it once. Then the result of the signaling contest was announced, our winners being well ahead. The final event of the program was the regimenatl parade, when the fourteen companies marched in review before regu- lar army officers. In this event the Westporters demonstrated splendid form, all four companies preserving a faultless line and a time-perfect step. No crack squad drill or Wall scaling contest was held this year, thus depriving our boys of two additional opportunities for dem- onstrating their supremacy, but it is the opinion of the local officers that the hon- ors were well divided with Northeast, our men taking a first and a second as against the Purple's two firsts. As for the year's results being unfavorable, nothing could have been farther from the fact, the work of the cadets being praised very highly by Colonel Palmer, the reviewing officer.

Knowing that all students should keep in touch with current events, many programs were on that subject, given in the form of debates and talks, though music and readings helped to keep alive the general interest and insured a good attendance. Our eighty members were chosen with due regard to their worth. It is with pride that we can say that all the Senior class officers and one Junior class officer are Clionians.

The annual social affair, a dance given on Washington's birthday at Morton's Hall, will live long in Clionian history. But the climax to the entire year of achievement and success came in our victory over the Round Tablers in our joint musical and debate contest.

The year 1919 has seen another step forward in the advancement of the Irving Club. Our programs have surpassed any of the preceeding years. A new feature has been added to our programs, the study of the scientific side of the great war. This phase of the work has been greatly enjoyed by all the members. We have reviewed the English novel and have also studied the modern novel. As va- riety is the spice of life, we have en- deavored to have one of the aformen- tioned subjects on each program, thus avoiding a monotonous meeting. Honor- able mention should be given to some of the original papers this year. Our members have, as usual, held places in all school activities. The Crier and . . .MR. SHAW Herald were composed almost entirely of Irvings as eight of our number had this honor. We were also represented in ath- letics, military achievements, Junior and Senior class officers, and the Senior play. The Irving Club was well represented in the Westport division and in the main division of the Boys' High School Club. On looking over the past year we Irvings can feel justly proud of ourselves, in that we have increased our member- ship, that we have been immensely bene- fited by our programs, that we have established ties of friendship that time cannot break, and that we have kept up the high standard.

X WARREN CALLEY A olviser. . . . This year, as all the preceding years, has been a great. year for the Clay Club. The club has increased in membership, its meetings have grown more interesting and instructive, and the general club spirit has advanced until it has grown to be not only a privilege but also an honor to be a member. The high grade standard of the club is such that not only amiable, but also cap- able members are allowed. We were very creditably represented in basket ball, football, and track, and had there been the usual inter-scholastic debate, a good . . . .MR. GOODALE percentage of the debate team would have been Clay Club members, just as in former years. As it is, we look forward with hopeful anticipation to next year when we will have a chance to show what we can do in debate, especially as the Clay Club is essentially a debating club. In addition we will have many of our present mem- bers back and with these and whatever new members that may join, we hope to make next year as prosperous for the Clays as the past year has been.

The main purpose of our .club is debating, and We have carried this out in our meetings throughout the year. As the inter-scholastic debates Were discontinued, We had no chance to spread our fame abroad and show the Wonderful debating talent which We have in our club. However, We have been represented in practically every other activity in the school. We were represented on the Crier staff and Senior play and also many members of the Girls' High School Club Cabinet are Pundits. During the year we have had several thrilling social events. For instance, we gave a tea at the Muehlebach Hotel with SECOND TERM President. . . ............... MAJORIE VVOODHEAD Vice-President. . .. ......

Also, our annual dance, which was given at Hillcrest Country Club, was a great suc- cess. We have had unusually interesting meetings this year, such as our debate on the League of Nations, a study of the Irish Question, and a real minstrel show. Altogether this has been a very in- teresting year in Pundit history. We certainly owe much of our success to the instruction and untiring efforts of our popular adviser, Miss Dorrel.

The influenza espanola can little hamper a club of its high order, and the scarcity of the meetings was easily redeemed by the quality of each. Each meeting Was divided equally be- tween interesting instruction and delight- ful pleasure. Mexico, Spain, and the Philippines were studied with the aid of slides and interesting discourses given at various times by Senores Ray, Morales, and Phillips and often by members of the PHILLIPS society. On one occasion Miss Campbell, art instructor of Polytechnic Institute, gave accounts of the lives of Spanish artists at the Nelson Art Gallery. ' Members of the Spanish Club also pre- sented the lively little comedy, Zara- gueta once in the school auditorium and another time at the Kansas University. We earnestly hope for the continued success which must and will come to a club of such indomitable spirit and such a capable adviser.

Perhaps the roster of no other club in Westport could present a more complete census of the leaders in school activities than does that of the History Club. This club seems to be the one place Where fellows of Widely different hobbies and talents meet on a plane of common in- terest and enjoyment. We are proud to believe the History Club is one of the causes for Westport's being the splendid school it is. These facts have been emphasized during the year just completed. Never before has a league of leaders been more complete in the records of the school. Every fellow has Worked for our central purpose. Nineteen-nineteen shall be a HARMAN red-letter year for this school for time to come as a result of it. Because We have a high standard, do not jump to the conclusion that We do not have fun. Our meetings are full of pep, and our hikes are visions of heaven loads of fun, gallons of Wit, and no girls. The club is at all times in close contact with the coach and his athletes. Other school activities receive our heartiest sup- port. Perhaps you think this is a bit chesty. We reply, it is enthusiasm that has made these statements true. We shall not shout Eureka, for that is not our styleg We are satisfied that nineteen- nineteen is a record year, and We shall continue from here to build a greater Westport of the future. 7 Walter J.

Thereby hangs a tale. Way back in the dark ages-1914-the Science Club Was organized. Its members discoursed fluently upon subjects that baffled the great minds of the age, and so exhausting was it that the club only lasted three years. The interest in science, however, did not die. The Biology Club was organized among the Botany and Zoology students, and the Chemistry and Physics students, after attempting departmental clubs with varying degrees of success, clamored to be admitted. The result is the B. C. P. Club, which includes Biology fBotany, Zoology, and Hygienej, Chemistry, and Physics. The plan of organizing by divisions gave rise to a spirit of enthusiastic rivalry, each division attempting to secure SECOND TERM President. . . ............... .....

These programs were Worked out in a very interesting manner, laboratory experiments being given to illustrate the various subjects. Each member took a special interest in the club, and at one meeting fgiven by the Physics divisionj the audience became electrified-Sh! the seats were Wired. Did We say rivalry? Imagine the con- sternation When it was discovered that all of the second term officers belonged to the Zoology division. ' I J. D. Reeves, Sec. .

We are very much elated, however, over the sup- port the students gave. Though very much outnumbered by the other schools, it goes to show that the students are be- ginning to recognize the musical contest as a school activity, just as important as basket ball and debate. It was the intention of the club to give the opera The Pirates of Penzance, but this had to be omitted because of the shortness of the term and other inter- SEOOND TERM President. . . ...............

However, there is every chance of having an opera next year. The Alpha Lyra Club has shown, as it has in former years, the value of such an institution in the school. It is at Once a means of allowing a certain group of the students to advance the interests and re- nown of Westport, and at the same time, to continue the study of their favorite accomplishment. Any one who is in- terested in music and in the promotion of music at Westport would be an aid to this club as the club would be an aid to him. The popularity and prosperity of our club will therefore be lasting in the history of this school. i Thomas McMillin, Sec. . i , - .. .. .'..' -. .A . -V-:.vf.,f.': -fi-an .fi .4 .uT.:,':'.L.f..-.....L ....--Mm . if -eg: 5 ag. :.4.-a-..4:..--.-..,-f. -A . ux,.am1n':--:-m:214..i:.lL.LL:LL.,.1:..z....r,-.. iw .

Miss HUMFELD This year has proven a most success- ful and enjoyable one for the Girls' High School Club. We not only aided in all patriotic campaigns, but We also gave a liberal sum for the support of Miss Mc- Farland, a missionary in South America. Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners were taken to poor families and We entertained the old people at the Armour Home with a lively program. Along with all this Work, the social activities of the club were not forgotten. In September We started out with a peppy party for all Fresh- man girls, vvhich was decidedly a success. Besides this We had a birthday party, a hike, a mothers' meeting, a farewell party for the Seniors, and last but not least, a banquet. The clubs of all the High Schools participated in the banquet and it Was a howling success. The discussionals this year have been very interesting and lively, and have added much to the enjoyment of the meet- ings. We feel that it is greatly due to our faithful adviser, Miss Humfeld, that our club has prospered this year, as never before.

DOWNING PRocToR Enthusiasm in the fellows and steady and persistent work by the officers put the Westport Division of the Boys' High School Club through a big year, not only in the attendance at the meetings, but also in the matter of getting a good school spirit. Last year the success of the club was not great, but the spirit of the year held sway in 1918 and 1919, and things boomed. Supper tickets were sold at school before the days of the meetings, and bigger crowds than ever before filled the Y. M. C. A. auditorium each night. The work that the High School Club has done in Westport is great. As proof of this consider the Friendship Campaign and its success. The fellows carried the winning spirit of Westport down to the club and helped keep her directly before the other schools. The programs were unusually interest- ing on account of the opportunities for ob- taining men just back from the war work who could emphasize the need of Christian work in every man. The colleges near Kansas City put on some of the programs which were noticed carefully by the Seniors. To put it in a few words, the High School Club has grown as never before in enthusiasm, co-operation, arousing greater school loyalty and most of all, in making Westport a better high school. . , .. .-A . - - ,,,, ,, , Q, b J.--.44 ..,44..L.-- ...-,.-H..,.,f.Q .n.-vav-.n:-.Tf:-f.1L:.L:LgQ::.4.:.4.g4.-..-- --.-.q,f,-.ra-1:r-l.f::.1..:.L .::. .. . ,.,. .-, .: - : K - -- -. -- , - .................-....,.'::..,,,,,,.'i.B, 1 Z 1 f' ' f4f ' I N J H , Y li 1, 1 J Nr ,, fl il 1! 5 w , ..f A N. f N- F 1 Q!

The question had been mo-re or less con- stantly debated for the past several years but no definite conclusion was reached Finally, urged by Mr. Shouse and others, the School Board decided to reinstate football as one of the annual quadrangu- lar competitions. 7 . Since 1905, when a Manual player, Gip- son, was fatally injured in the Thanks- giving Day game with Central, the ban has been on. An attempt in 1908, under the modified code of rules, to bring the sport back, proved a flat financial failure. It is interesting to note, however, that our own Coach Edwards served as full- back on the team Central put out that year. So for ten long years the school officials were obliged not to encourage football, yet they wondered why the spirit of the various student bodies did not demand it. The climax, long overdue, came in 1918, when the School Board felt that it was not fair to the students to deprive them of the greatest game of all, and so con- sented to its reestablishment. As far as material was concerned, Westport was not unprepared, as the Country Club team, city champions of the year before, formed a nucleus around which Coach Edwards built a magnificent machine. Such men as Captain Haas, McAlester, Mel Horton, and Arch Rich- ards, wore already recognized as sterling players, and many others equally good were developed. The fact that the schedule was cut in two was deeply re- gretted by our boys, but the superiority they demonstrated over Central and Northeast in the two games that were played, gave them undisputed possession of a well earned championship. Our first game against Central, was by far the classiest exhibition of football the season produced, and had it not been for the splendid work of Hoxie - Haas, the game might have ended in a score- less tie. The uncanny elusiveness dis- played by our captain in that beautiful 55-yard run for a touch down was marv- elcus, when one considers how closely the two teams were matched. Central played a passing game, short throws to Burke, gaining for them con- sistently, and for the first half our boys were baffled. On the kick off, the Gold and Blue offense was extremely weak, and Central was able to rush the ball far into our teriitory. Here the defense tightened, and the ball was kicked out of danger. The rest of the half was turned . .

The third quarter brought out the prettiest work of all. Central started another drive for the Tiger goal, which again broke down before the stone wall defense of our line. Again the ball was kicked out of dang- -er, and Central fell back to the pass. This last play was fatal. Jack Haas seized the ball in mid-air and clutching it under his left arm, started on his sprint to vic- tory. Away he went, dodging and stiff- arming half the Central team, till he planted the old pigskin in triumph under the goal posts. Then his team mates fell upon him and alternately beat and ca- ressed him for his splendid work. The bleachers went wild. The last quarter, Jack wisely turned into a punting duel, and despite the des- perate efforts of the Blue and White, the score remained. After four long years, Central was beaten. The second and last game was with Northeast and was easy picking com- pared with the fast game against Central. The teams were about evenly matched as to weight, and it was evident that they had no chance against Coach Edwards' speed-demons. ' Our boys started off on the jump and maintained the pace all the way, scoring in every session except the last, when Coach sent in a number of the second team men. Doc Joyce gets the credit for the first touch-down, scored soon after the game began. Hoxie Haas did most of the heavy work in the second quarter, counting twelve points in rapid order. After each score, Mel Horton added a point by his beautiful kicking. Rudolph's score came in the third quar- ter, when he blocked a Central kick to safety, and took the ball over on the next play. The rest of the game was a struggle all the way, our substitutes showing up well against the Purple. Al- though the final score registered a 7 to 0, Northeast is to be congratulated on the clean sportsmanship which she dis- played, and with a little more weight or a little more speed, should be able to furn- ish some good competition next year. Second Team Few people realize the great part the second team plays in the development of a crack team. Without the loyal sup- port of the scrubs, as they are called, the machine which turned back Central and romped on Northeast, might possi- bly have failed, for it is in the scrim- mages on the home practice field that the first string men gain perfection in the interference, tackles, blockings, and the like. The second team deserves as much credit, share for share, as their more skillful brethern, and we take off our hats to them. Not alone for such unselfish service should we remember them, but for the fact that they upheld the high standard set by the Tigers by keeping their goal- line uncrossed. Owing to the fact that Central did not have enough men out for a second team, no official league could be organized, so two games with the Purple and one with Manual made up their season's record. The first game with Northeast was an easy victory, 19 to O, Captain Stith do- ing most of the work. The second, how- ever, was fast and closely competed, a field goal by Gray scoring the winning three points. In both games, Northeast played clean, hard football, a few of the first team men playing in the line-up, and our scrubs deserve much credit for those two victories.

He filled the hardest posi- tions in football, that of defensive full- back, and filled it in a manner that Would have done credit to a collegiate man. Hoxie was a deadly tackler, a reliable kicker, and never failed to gain his yards when given the ball. Just as Coach Ed- wards built the team around Jack this year, so will he be the mainstay next fall, and if he were the only old man coming back, Westport's prospects would be more than bright. --H--f----D -fra-u 1'-4:-1.-1..xau.4.4.1 4.yL.:..,....-..,.,,-cvqza':-uee-r.- y.. nv- pq na -lB'i'5 ' 70 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. fContinued from Page 685 The Manual second team was a strong one, their first and second teams being practically one and the same. The score- less tie that was the only result when our light midgets clashed with their beefy first squad is a fine example of the su- perior brand of football the Gold and Blue is capable of. ,These three games brought out some splendid players, Stith, Kassebaum, Gray, Neuer, and Kleinstuber. Unfortunately, however, most of this group graduates this year, and they will not have the op- portunity to display their wares in a first division game. ' Gilbert Hardacre, Center, '19 Ask any man on the Central and North- east teams who broke up more of their plays before fairly started, and the ans- wer will be the same, Gibbie. With a head and' body that could not be hurt, this midget filtered through the opposing line on every play and worked havoc with the best of trick plays. Gibbie will be a real loss to the team next year, and the man must be a star who can suc- cessfully fiil his boots. Andrew McAlester, Guard, '19 Chick was one of those fighting fools who would rather be torn limb from limb than be forced out of the game. Quiet and unimpressive to look at, he was one of the hardest, most unrelenting players on the team. Chick's specialty was the forward pass, and he could heave the pig-skin as far as most fellows could throw a baseball. No one will ever for- get Mac and his little baseball hat, which he never seemed to lose in the hottest scrimmage. Lee Johnson, Guard, '19 Nig played his first and last season of inter-scholastic football this year, and a more fearless player never wore the Gold and Blue. The second team linesmen can best testify as to the power of his attack, the fierce scowl he gives his op- ponents being enough to terrify the stuotest heart. With a little more prac- tice and experience, Nig would make a star, but perhaps that will come in his college career. Creed Joyce, Half-back, '19 Doc could make more noise than any man on the team, and all the while fol- low his noise up with a clean-cut, con- sistent brand of the grand old game. Once give Creed the ball in a broken field, and the man who could catch him must be able to do the fifty in :O6 flat. Doc would be a star next season with his experience added to natural abil- ity, but he leaves Westport this year. Melvin Horton, Full-back, '19 Mel was not given much chance against Central, but showed up splendidly in the second game. Despite his small stature, Mel was a tower of strength in the back-field, pulling down many a runner who had fought his way through the line. His long suit, however, was in kicking and in running fake plays. He kicked every goal in the Northeast game, adding three points to an already big score. George Reeves, Half-back, '19 A man who can be a top-notcher in basket ball and football, too, is a won- der, and that is exactly what Cotton Reeves is. Westport athletic stock fell to zero when George joined the S. A.

Uncle Sam thus lost a good soldier, and Westport receovered her star athlete. It was remarkable the way in which George got through the Purple line, and his handling of the ball was superb. Verne Wilkin, End, '20 Handsome was one of those quiet fel- lows that does not inspire one on first sight, but anyone fortunate enough to have seen him perform on the gridiron will vow they have never seen a more certain tack- ler. His nick-name might well be N ever- Miss, and many were the interferences that went to pieces rounding his end of the line. If Verne keeps up the high standard he has set for himself, he is our bet for a berth on the All-Stars. Archibald Richards, End, '19 Arch like Chick McAlester, was al- ways getting crippled in practice, and consequently went into the big games with a lame ankle. Considering .this handicap, his work was remarkable,' be- ing especially good at receiving passes. We all wish Arch was coming back next year, as his cheerful smile and winning personality will be sadly missed in the fall work-outs. James Stewart, Tackle, '20 Old Hercules was the iron man of the team, playing the full season and playing it in a way that was a constant incentive for harder effort from his team mates. The man who drew Jimmy to buck against, either on the practice field or at Association Park, always sighed and determined to die as bravely as pos- . . . . - -nmiprtwh--1-' 4. , - ,, 1f--...- ... . .pall-n - - -- rm ' ,A ' T:u:'x:f:-u:-n1.z-nn44.4.-.a.a:.f7ff7.wF'R1':'!

With a little more experience, Jimmy will make an unusual kicker, the strength he puts behind his swing, carry- ing the ball far down the field. .iii Esmond Kearney, Half-back, '20 'Kearney was one of the few men out for first practice who had ever played the game before. Esmond was a member of .the Country Day team sometime ago and was noted for his kicking ability. Since then he has developed into the fastest, hardest tackler on the squad. Hard luck in the form of a dislocated chin kept him out of the second game, but he should be at his best next fall. -.l ' Martin Lyle, Half-back, '21 M. V. was a Sophomore this year, and if he keeps on developing at his pres- ent rate, the school will soon be too small for him. Lyle played faultless football as safety' man, never dropping the kick and was sure to fight back most of the distance lost by his splendid open-field running. As a live-plunger he shone par- ticularly for his knack of picking holes in a seemingly impregnable line. Martin is a star in basket ball as well. Chester Cooksey, End, '20 Titter improved a thousand per cent after the first week or so of practice, and, like Lyle, should be a star next year. Chet was one of those solid, husky chaps, who could get over the ground at break- neck speed. No one on the team was more conscientious in his training, and he was out for every work-out, giving his best to the team at all times. Walter Rudolph, Tackle, '20 Rudy was the handy man of the team, and could be played in any position, line or back-field. As strong as an ox, his sprint and fight made him a danger- ous man to buck against. If any man could fill Nig Johnson's place it would be Rudolph, as all he lacks is a little self- assurance. .. Herbert Darnell, Guard, '21 . Herb is one of the two Sophomore letter-men, and his large build and im- mense strength make him a most valu- able asset. Herb started out at center this year, and may be shifted to fill Crib Hardacre's place. His battle cry, Come on fellows, a little pep, was al- ways a signal for added effort, generally ending in a score. MY FRIEND I have a friend who seems to me A lifeboat on a stormy sea. ' N o radiant figurehead has she, Nor stays she close in near the lee. Her solid planks brave ocean gales, Wild winds ne'er hinder once her sails. The white wave foam is dashed aside, And near me through tempests does abide. I love her for her watchful post, For she is here when wanted most, I love for love she's given me, My lifeboat on a troubled sea. Loving, faithful, wearied never, She is my friend for aye and ever. -Rebekah Deal, '19.

INTER-SCHOLASTIC BASKET BALL It is a very h-ard thing to sit down and give a quiet, concise review of an athletic season when a single phrase, brief in formula, but of momentous im- portance, constantly repeats itself, insis- tently breaks into any channel of thought, and leaves one's mind contentedly review- ing a certain night in midwinter when cheering thousands thronged Convention Hall and saw Westport's goal shooters send the Central team reeling to a 28 to 22 defeat. Cn that night an undefeated record of four and one-half years was wiped out and forgotten, and Westport gained a new war-cry, one that will never fail in the future to spur a lagging team on to glorious victory. That cry is Twenty-eight to twenty-two. The first game of the season saw a repetition of the same old story that Westport supporters have been forced to listen to for as long as they can remem- ber. We opened the season with Central, and the Blue and White took home the bacon. The boys were in the thick of it all the way, fighting to overcome a poor start, but the self-assurance that habitual victory always brings gave Young's pro- teges just enough to pocket the contest. A look at the score, 35 to 32, will show that the game belonged to no one until the final whistle blew, and the feeling that they were not outclassed in any phase of the game gave Captain Reeves' men a good start for their se-cond meet- ing with the Centralites. From the local standpoint, the second game was the most unsatisfactory of the season. To fall before Central had be- come customary and could be endured, but to be forced to bow to Northeast was intolerable. The team was not a team, but rather a group of hostile units, work- ing at cross-purposes when they worked at all, and to the tortured spectators the season was a disaster-a nightmare to be quickly forgotten. Cotton Reeves worked like a Hercules to turn the tide, but he was working alone. The other men were apathetic, dull, and to all ap- pearances, extremely bored with the whole proceeding. ' B Then came the change. It would have been impossible to identify the snappy, fighting team that buried Man- ual under an avalanche of points with the listless aggregation of the night be- fore. For the first time every man on the team had found his place in the ma- chine and never a clock ran more smoothly. The passing was dazzling, the shooting brilliant, and the old fighting spirit that has made Westport Westport was fairly boiling over. From that vic- tory, expected and conceded though it was, the fellows took new heart, and a 1. , .,-we-,un .,-:v,u-ru-:4.+.x.g-1..f .u...........- -,,..J ..,,.,,,,,,,,.,, ,mbbunsg N -5 , h- , W J M, M- my with -v-.4..,.n ..., '7:'rn:a:v71:fsnu- , ' -:AL-1. ..f1m...u.:r,,4.-4.-.g..:...+.: :1 .1 The First Team ' 4 . u 1. 5 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 75 firm resolve, steadily growing into a passionate determination to beat Cen- tral, found root in each of Coach Ed- ward's basketeers. K Every Westporter knows by heart what happened on that historic night when George Reeves took his last shot at a Central tea.m. George has played basket ball pretty regularly since he entered Westport, and he has seen a number of Tiger teams walked on by the Blue and White. Now, generally, George is a quiet chap, but he solemnly swore that before he said good-bye to Westport, Central was going to get a man-sized dose of her own medicine. Did she? Ask George, he can can tell you. Ask any member of the squad. Ask Mr. Shouse or Coach Edwards. Ask any student or teacher-yes, even ask a Freshman. They can all tell you and will go to consider- able length to explain the matter in full detail. It was a wonderful fight, as all Central-Westport games have been, and at last, it ended as it should end. The next two games. could not have been different. The Tigers swept every- thing before them, trimming Northeast by a safe margin and letting Manual down to her second season of straight de- feats. It was natural that the Purple should have given us competition. A win would have given her the pennant, and she had beaten us earlier in the season. From their standpoint, all circumstances pointed to a league championship. Poor old Northeast! T How she could be ex- pected to calculate on that irresistable attack of a team that had broken a four years' precedent and one of the best teams Central had ever turned out? The last night of the season saw the Crimson performers yield to a champion- ship team with little argument. It also saw the Blue and White traditional su- premacy shattered forever when Captain Cross and his Northeasterners took a thrilling, knock 'em down and drag 'em out battle from the ex-champs in the last minute of play. Three cheers, everybody, for Captain Reeves and his Championship Tigers. Second Team Although our first team boys won- the big league championship, the second team made no such record, in fact, they fin- ished in the very opposite place, at the bottom of the league with a percentage of 000. The second team had bad luck from the word go. For instance, take the case of Captain Lyle. After the first game Coach decided that M. V. was good enough to be on the first team, so to the first he went. This left the second with-i out a captain. However, this was soon remedied, as Rudolph was elected to take M. V's place for the rest of the season. The opening game of the season which was played with Central on the Westport court, resulted in a defeat for the Blue and Gold. The game was a hard fought one, and our boys made the Centralites work for every point they got. Northeast' was the next one to administer the un- pleasant dose of defeat to us. We led un- til the last few minutes of play when a late but effective rally by the Purple and White sent them home victorious. The game with Manual was rather rough, verging on football. Our boys could not find the basket, and as a consequence met their third defeat. . At the beginning of the second round Central again came off victor. This time, however, the game was much closer than the first one, the Blue and White winning by only 2 points. This was one of the best second team games of the season and ranked with some of the first ieam games for spirit and play. North- east and Manual each won their second I ' l - - i .. - . . , , . qy,: 1 .n-4.1.1 .gg.:....a-- r v:':3'z: 1- - -.J '4-a..1.m- 4.4.-4: -:-ff-Q-rznyz-:::13r1S3 31'f ': ' T'T'f'- ' ' .

As above mentioned, the second team had hard luck. They played rings around their opponents in nearly every game, but the lack of ability to hit the basket caused them to lose games they should have 'won. Rudolph, Brewster, and Brown were three of the most prominent members of the second team. Brewster is only a Freshman and has three more years to play. He bids fair to be quite la player. The teams finished as follows: Team W L P Pct Central. . .. . .. .. Northeast. . .. . . . 5 1 6 838 4 2 6 666 Manual. . .. . . 3 3 6 333 0 6 6 000 Westport. . . ........ . InterQClass Games The inter-class games are held primar- ily to allow the coach to get a line up on the men for the squad. Every one has a fair chance, and the men are picked. There are two classes: A, all men weigh- ing over 125 pounds, and B, all men un- der the weight of 125 pounds. Each class has a team in both the A and B leagues. When the dust of the season had cleared away, it was found that the Juniors had won the class A champion- ship. To accomplish this feat it was necessary for them to play an extra game with the Seniors, who disputed their rights to the title. With Salty Wetzel and Cooksey as forwards for the Juniors, the other teams found it impossible to keep up with them on the scoring end of the game. The third year men also won the class B championship, winning three straight games without one defeat. Again their nearest competitors were the Seniors who finished with two games won and one lost. Neither the Freshmen nor the Sophomores seemed able to put up a very good game.

The tournament was held in the gym February 19, 24 and 26, each team playing three games. A developed the best team work and de- feated C, her only rival by a score of 32 to 13. A had no star, but her team played together like a machine. Hynd- man, Cooksey, and Hammett deserve special mention for their fine work. Peck and O'Keefe starred for C, the former being practically the only one of the C team who was able to find the basket. Heite and Reicher starred for B and D respectively. The first round gave a line on the win- ners. B bowed to A under a 34 to 9 score, while C defeated D. This game was mainly between captains, Reicher scoring 11 of his team's 14 points and Peck 10 of his team's 18. The second round confirmed the first, A winning from C, due to C's over-confi- dence and lack of training, and B beating D by 2 points, which was undoubtedly due to the absence of Reicher. In the last round everything ran ac- cording to the dope. C smothered B nicely, playing a much improved game. A fairly lost D in a 60 to 10 score, it being impossible for Reicher to cover the entire D team, and as they all were in a shooting mood, the score mounted higher and higher. These games brought out some good players, Reicher, Peck, Cooksey and Hynd- man being the best scoring factors, While Heite, Hammett and Stewart showed up best on defense. A has won the championship twice, and another victory will give her a claim for the title. The final standings were as follows: W L Pct Company A. . .. 3 0 1000 Company C. . .. 2 1 666 Company B. . .. 1 2 333 Company D. . . . ...... . . . . 0 3 000 - Creed Doc Joyce One of the fastest, brainiest players in the league, can be truthfully said about Doc. Joyce made a record last year as a specialist on floor work and an accurate shot from any angle, no matter how diffi- cult, and he certainly lived up to this record. ' When viewed by an outsider, Joyce seems rather small to be holding down a first team position, but looks are de- ceiving things, as anyone who saw him play will testify. We are graduating Creed this year and in him the school loses a fine all around athlete. i Verne Wilkin Verne held down the position of center on the big team this year and made a great success of it. He played all six games and had a faculty of being every- where at once and proving a great factor in our passing machine. There is no doubt about it, Verne was an immense help in the game when we defeated Central. That night he played a nearly perfect game and was on every point of the floor at once, besides keeping Storms down to two goals and making two goals for our team. ,.-.r -urznr..-r 2 'Z'2'4- ' 'J ' --.J .

George is leaving us this year, but his reputation is made, and Wherever he goes, if he plays basket ball, he will be recognized as a star. George is a good all-round player, and while he has never tried his hand at guarding, yet we all know he would suc- ceed should he try. As a center he is fine, but as a forward he is a shining light. It took George to show Central where to get off. Did you see him that night? He was everywhere at once, guarding, passing and continuously keep- ing the scorekeeper busy counting up Westport's health improvers. In all the games George kept at the boys, filling them with pep, and playing the game of an all around star. We are sorry to lose liim, and wish him the best of luck, wherever he goes, --1-a.--'yr.x.fa.-nz:-.Qu-f.1 - .4 -w -1- - - - - - - W- 1 'A --------K---ws -- - 1-.wra:umr:TL:.i15 .4,:.:.:-.4-.-..,.,, ,,. W., ,. -,. ,, THE WESTPORT HIGH M. V. Lyle M. V. showed up in basket ball as well as he did in football. His ability to hit the basket and pass the ball made him a valuable asset to the team. Lyle played in all of the games and while he only made eleven goals, -he was right there when he was needed and kept the ball moving in the right direction. Lyle is only a Sophomore and so has two more years to play. He is a mighty fine for- ward and will show up for Westport next year. He has a fine chance of being captain of the team his Senior year. Joe Reicher Joe was elected to lead our boys to victory next year. He was unable to play the first game on account of his game leg, but played in all the others. He can be likened unto Dana Munsell for his prowess as a guard. Joe was one of the fairest and squarest guards in the city and was greatly feared by all his opponent guards, for he often took jaunts into their territory and added points to our score. Did you know that Joe is going to lead our boys to victory over Central again SCHOCL HERALD. 79 next year? Sure! Go to it, Joe, we're for you. Gibbie Hardacre Gibbie was as usual the jester of the squad and did a great deal towards keep- ing the boys in good humor. He played four of the six games and showed up very well. As a guard, Gibbie was quite a success and lived up to the predictions made about him last year. We will be sorry to lose him. Good luck, Gibbie! J ack Haas Jack was a find this year, as he had never played basket ball before, and while no one doubted his ability as a football player, nevertheless, he showed them, to use a slang expression. Jack's attachment for the enemy forwards, especially Browning, in our memorable game with Central, made him a much feared personage. He played a clean, fast game and fit perfectly into our splen- did machine. Jack has another year ahead and without doubt will be one of the pennant winners next year. i,,, FOR FRENCH STUDENTS ONLY Je vous aime je vous adore, How could I ever love you 1jY101'9- Je vous aime beaucoup, petlte, From pretty head to dainty feet.

W --- 'Don Aeex - vi ' TRACK SEASON The track season this year seemed dis- astrous to us and more so in comparison with our victories in the other athletic events of the year. The fellows worked and worked hard for Westport, but the trouble was that there were not enough of them. Has the splendid interest shown in football and basket ball detracted from our interest in track? Or was it just because things seemed so upset on account of the many interruptions? V These are questions which will be answered next year, and next year will be the test. Coach Edwards worked hard with every- one. It was not his fault. His interest had not lessened with the end of the foot- ball season. The old-time pep that marked our victories and our training for those victories seemed to have perished when we finished up the other two major events. Perhaps we were over-confident at the be- ginning of the track season. Perhaps the school just took it as a matter of course and thought that Westport could not help but win the track championship also. However that maybe, Westport did not win, and did not win by a big margin. We did not show the interest in track that there should have been and as a conse- quence lost hope of rounding out a com- plete year of athletic championships. Next year with our old-time spirit manifesting itself, let us hope that we will walk away with the track season. -- .,,l M. U.-K. U. Indoor Meet The track team, true to precedent, was a little off form in the first night of the season and Northeast won the cup by one point. The meet, however, gave our boys a line on the other schools' talent, which they used to good advantage later on. Kleinstuber and Kearney grabbed four points in the first event, taking second and fourth respectively, which our Captain augmented when he took another point in the quarter-mile. Our midget quartet, Lockwood, Gray, Eiser, and Esslinger ran Northeast a close race in the relay, and they, with Richardson, who took second in the half-mile, tacked another six points on to our growing total. As a fitting finish to the evening, Kearney, Kimball, Joyce, and Kleinstuber took first honors in the A and B relay, putting us within one point of Northeast. fContinued on page 835 - , , V , dx-, , , ,,-..,. - -M-ggug ,,.,,.,,,,,1- . -14 ,' 451, :.4,..-....:. -fy.-f.-..x-reavrgnnaq-wt-.7,:1a.aJLlL'g.1.i.:..1.1l4:..,...-.W- ----my via- 2?l,.L.r.i.:-.I.:..-Q.---. -,-.---:nr 1- -H- 4 Nr. 0' -,-- Y ---- f 5: 3 . -1 3 4. ?iNg 4 M 4 X we X A sm mf Q X Before the ,Quad ,3 .sn ew iii gi ' LE .1 i..

Lott and Po- lite know that they can not loaf when Cap Monroe is on the job. He does not hand out anything except pure un- adulterated swiftness when he hears that gun go off, and anyone who is up against him might as Well prepare to lose a Whole lot more than his breath before he is through. But our captain is not limited to the cinder path for his avenues to fame. He is equally Well known to the denizens of the broad-jumping pit and to the hurlers of the iron pill. Wherever his manly face is seen, there victory must go. Westport is grateful to have such a fellow within her Walls. . .. . .,.... ., ., H, .4 ,-rin.: .1.:-......--..,.-.,.. . gg ,- gg.1:......4.:.........-y.,.-,.1.,q-M-.v-az-.:.,f,g4 f5g:Lg,L,g,: . . - '....,,... ..- ., A , - , . v , , , ,Y g V THE wEsTPoRT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. as CContinued from page 805 Such a close finish, instead of discourag- ing the b0Ys, simply spurred them on to greater efforts for the K. C. A. C. meet, and how they profited may be seen from the results on that occasion. K. C. A. C. Indoor Meet Coming back determined to retrieve their close defeat at the hands of North- east, Coach Edwards' boys went into the K. C. A. C. trackfest with everything they had, and the result was a smashing victory. Captain Kleinstuber and his knights of the abbreviated trousers were at their very best, and the final tabulation showed the Gold and Blue well out in front. In the 50-yard dash, Kleinstuber and Kearney ran a beautiful sprint, taking sec- ond and fourth, Lott of Central and Polite of Northeast capturing the other two places. Kleinstuber also placed third in the quarter mile, giving Westport a total of six points. Then Richardson, running his last race before being ordered by the doctor to cut out all athletics, shook the dust out from under his feet and placed at the head of the procession. This first, with a first and second from the two re- lay teams, Esslinger, Lockwood, Herndon, and Gray in C and D, and Kearney, Kim- ball, Joyce, and Kleinstuber in A and B, hoisted the local accumulation to 19, enough to win the meet. The final stands : Westport .... . . . . 19 Northeast. . . . . 16 Central .... ............. . . 14 Manual .... ................. 6 ,i.l.,i.. -- Missouri Invitation Meet The annual track meet at Columbia went to Webster Groves,' now three times winner of the event, the Tigers finishing two points behind Central for second honors.. This was the first ex- hibition of the team since Richardson, Lewis, and Pratt were forced to drop out and with those consistent point-winners on the field, that loving cup would doubt- less have been added to our collection. As it was, the boys lost point after point to outsiders which should have gone down in the Gold and Blue column against Kansas City competition. Only consider- ing the local high schools, Central's vic- tory evened up the minor meets of the season, Northeast, Central, and Westport each winning a first. Dutch Kassebaum started the scoring when he took third place in the high hurdles, which, with McAlesters' fourth in the half-mile and Captain Kleinstuber's third in the 440 gave West.port five count- ers. Kearney and Kimball both placed in the 220 yard dash, Kearney and Joyce also taking six points in the low hurdles. Had the little tin God of Luck been on our side, Central would no doubt have trailed, as Esmond and Doc each won their heats. A poor start lost. the finals, however, and we took six points instead of eight. A third in the high jump and second in the broad jump by the versatile Esmond Kearney and Kleinie were the only Tiger points in the field events, most of the honors in this division going to the Webster Grove contingent. . The relay was one of those affairs that one does not like to remember. Our boys, Kimball, Joyce, Kassebaum, and Kleinstuber, ran splendidly, setting the pace a good part of the way. When Iqassebaum, who was running third, passed the stick to Kleinie, a Northeast man stopped directly in front of the lat- ter, causing him to lose many precious seconds. As it was, the Cap ran a great race, closing the gap to inches, and taking third. A protest was overruled v- .pf .. .-.un.-4..,.. ..,..... -,..,.,..., --A Am- -' .

Invitation Meet. The Kansas City high schools reckoned without their host on the McCook Field, May 17, and were given a drubbing which theywill not soon forget, by a quintet of athletes from Winfield, Kansas. Dobson of Winfield was the individual star, scor- ing seventeen out of the thirty-two Win- field points. He set a new record in the pole vault while doing it, too. Central came home with second honors with twenty points, Northeast gathered in six- teen counters for third, while Atchison and Abilene tied for fourth with fifteen points apiece. Westport trailed along in sixth place with eight points, which were the result of Kearney's first in the high jump and fourth in the hurdles, Klein- stuber's fourth in the 220-yard dash, and a fourth in the 4-man relay. Westport drew another blank in both the 50-yard and 100-yard dashes, and her hopes for victory got shakier after the 120-yard hurdles, 220-yard hurdles, the 440-yard, and 220-yard dashes went by with only two domestic points on the scoreboard. The shot-put also slid away with nary a tally. In the half-mile we sorely missed Richardson who could have gath- ered in a first in this event. Westport's athletes only nodded to points in the pole- vault and broad-jump, although they re- solved to become better friends with them before the Quad. By this time everyone saw what a raw deal the Winfield aggre- gation was handing us, so Kearney got busy and stretched himself to a first in the high jump. The final counter came when our relay picked up a fourth in the last event of the meet. Westport felt bad about that K. U. meet, but-well, alibis are lying around all over the place. In the first place the whole team walked up and down lVIt. Oread twice, enough to kill any team. Bill Stotts took one look at the stiffs in the medical laboratory and Bill is not going to be a doctor. And, etc. The Westport team is grateful to the Sigma Chis at whose house they stayed and had a fine dinner. The Quadrangular Perhaps if the meet had been earlier in the year Westport would have won. As it was the Quadrangular came in late and so did we. The day was scorching, and the Rootlets blossomed out in the full magnificence of a real track team, win- ning the meet with 14 2-5 points. Central landed in second place with 120 1-3 points, Westport gathered in 1121-2, and Man- ual trailed with 58 2-3. It was especially hard to lose the meet, because it was the only thing we needed to fill out a year of athletic triumphs. Surely after winning the football and basketball championships it would have been the logical thing for Westport to have come off with first honors in track also. But such was not the case, worse luck! and Northeast picked up the Quad with some to spare. One consolation, however, remained. Creed Joyce was high man with firsts in 100-yard hurdles, 220-yard hurdles, and the shot put. Kearney was runner-up to Joyce with two firsts and a second to his credit. But, although Westport did have the individ- ual stars, we fell down in Classes C and D. Northeast had a good lead in Class D and also won Class A, and although Westport nearly ran away with Class B, it was not enough to overcome the lead of either Northeast or Central in the other three classes.

They have ac- complished a great piece of work and certainly 1919 will go down as a banner year in our athletic history. There' is, however, one more who has contributed as much toward making our jubilees pos- sible as any single member whose praises have been so often sung. Instead of be- ing in the limelight, this individual has al- ways seemed to be trying to avoid any- thing that smacked of notoriety. He has been back of every contest, smoothing the way, lending a helping hand every- where, dropping the kindly word at just the time when some member of the team most needed it. Without his earnest and untiring effort many things that have happened this year would have been im- possible.

Tim Q RLS' THLETIE S Girls' Athletics Very few people are aware of the fact, that in girls' athletics, Westport ranks far ahead of most schools. Besides the regular course in physical training, there are' the inter-class contests, which are open to every girl in school, and which are growing more popular every year. This year an unusually large number of girls were to be found taking part in these inter-class games on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The contests were livlier and showed more pep and enthusiasm than ever before. Perhaps this is due to the fact that girls' athletics are given a more important place at Westport than in any of the other high schools. Westport is the only one of the four Kansas City high schools which has three recognized major sports for girls. These are hockey, basketball, and baseball. In this the girls are ahead of the boys, for they have had only two major sports until football was introduced. This is the first year in a long time that the boys have enjoyed a real fall sport. This year marks the fourth successful hockey tournament for Westport girls. From the very first practice day the con- test was assured of success by the hard work of the players and their fine spirit in all of the games. This sport gathers a larger number of followers each year and stands in great favor among the girls. For many years basket ball has been the favorite sport. This year was no ex- ception. The games wese exceedingly in- teresting. The teams developed surpris- ing skill in the short time they had for practice. The final games were the most exciting and the best attended of the three inter-class contests of the year. Baseball received an enthusiastic wel- come in this, its second season as a major sport. The triangle on Gillham Road was the scene of the match games which end- ed the year's program of girls' athletics. Considering the many interruptions in the work, this has been a very successful year. Hockey The class teams entered the hockey contests, the first of the girls' athletic activities, with splendid enthusiasm and class spirit. - After six weeks of practice, the first inter-class game, the Junior-Senior game, was played on the triangle November 21. The teams were so well matched that the game was a very close contest, ending with a 2 to 1 score for the Seniors. The Freshman-Sohpomore game was a hard fought struggle. Three quarters were played without a score by either . .J . ..- . I .. z.. . . .. .-:--.J-4..-. .4 .-if.-4.-:'.L..1, -.g..:. ......--f.: H 44.

During the last quarter, Marty Williamson made a goal and won the game for the Sophomores. The Senior team suffered defeat in the Sophomore-Senior game, scoring only 1 point to the 6 made by their opponents. Great was the joy of the Freshmen when they defeated the Junior team by their splendid playing. The score was, Freshmen 3, Juniors 2. The day set for the final games was the Tuesday after school closed because of the influenza. The Junior and Senior teams failed to make their appearance, so they lost the games by default. The final standing of the teams was: Sohpomores champions: Freshmen second: Seniors third: and Juniors last. Here is the winning Sophomore squad: Martha Williamson, captain, Elizabeth Meriwether, Harriet Chittenden, Virginia Jackson, Aileen Allbritain, Alice Hafer, Eleanor Renfro, Nadine Longshore, Eve- lyn Miner, Louise Allen, Felicie Thresher, Lula Canada, Cuddy McKewn, Helen Proc- tor, Marjorie Powell, Martha Fowler, and Elizabeth Shepard. , The members of the other hockey squads are: Freshmen: Lela Jesse, captain, Grace Ringle, Lucy Hall, Frances Chambers, Gertrude Matinlee, Ruth Thompson, Gladys Owens, Elizabeth Turner, Virginia Duval, Helen Hale, Gwendolyn Manson, Gertrude Edwards, Grace Edwards, Eliz- abeth Dietrich, Olga Anderson, Marie Sillex, and Elizabeth Wilson.

Basket Ball Although basket ball practice did not start till very late, the games were marked by more than usual enthusiasm this year. Not only the large number of players who came out for practice but the many spectators at the games testi- fied to the popularity of this sport. This year before the regular inter-class games, a series of practice games be- tween the different gymn classes was played. In these games the team of third year girls, in the seventh-hours class, was the winner. The first inter-class game came off February 25, when the Sophomores de- feated the Freshmen team by a score of 19 to 13. The Junior-Senior game was a hot con- test but finally ended with victory for the Juniors. The Juniors made a number of fouls which gave their opponents ser- eral points. The score was, Juniors 24, Seniors 21. The Sophomores won the Sophomore- Senior game. The final score was 12 to 11 in favor of the Sophomore team. At the end of the first half, the Fresh- man-Senior game appeared to be a Acer- tain victory for the Seniors, the score be- ing 8 to 1 in their favor. But the Fresh- men took heart and piling up their score, they defeated the Seniors by one point. The score was 18 for the Freshies to 17 for the Seniors. The Freshman team was unable to withstand the steady teamwork of their opponents in the Junior-Senior game. When the game ended, the Freshmen had 18 points, the Juniors 24.

Probably never before has the spirit of the whole school been so fine. In spite of all set-backs and handicaps the Senior Class has gone over the top. Our Seniors stood out conspicuously on every athletic team. Captain George Reeves, Creed Joyce, Gilbert Hardacre, Verne Wilkin, and Arch Richards were the back-bone of our basket ball team which, after four years of endeavor, humbled Central. Football was revived in September and the excellent team, on which there were seven Seniors, won the pennant. The two Senior cheer leaders and our representatives on the track team sustained the reputation of the class. The mixers of the class of '19 were a revelation as to, what mixers should really be. Our daring acrobats, Waggener, Joyce, Hardacre, Kassebaum, and Hern- don, and our talented actors gave enter- tainments well worth remembering. The Seniors really mixed which proved our unusual good fellowship and democratic spirit. The Senior play demonstrates that his- trionic art at Westport High School is being faithfully maintained at its al- ready high level. The standard musical appreciation has also been loyally fostered by this class. Had it not been for the Seniors, the Jazz Crchestra would not have been so jazzy, nor the glee club so gleeful. It is not too much to say that this class has a record for scholarship un- equaled by any class in the history of the school.

I I 1 ll ' Illllul lll llll l l THE CLASS OF 1920 . In the year A. D., 1916, a most noble undertaking was recorded in the books of Time. A great body of young people, the men and women of tomorrow-indeed valiant heroes and heroines-renounced the idle pleasures of this cold, cruel world to plunge onward, to strive, and to con- quer, bearing the flaming torch of knowl- edge at their head and with light of true desire in their eyes. And when the world saw them, it cried out in joy, All is not lost l Up they came, four hundred strong, like a guiding light shining out above the oblivion and obscurity which had sur- rounded them until they took up the stand- ard of good education. Time passed. The clock has stricken three. Three long years have they toiled and toiled, and now they have conquered the third obstacle on the road to fame, and this obstacle which, up to that time, had seemed too remote an obj ect for their am- bition to grasp, has now become merely a resting place in the progress of their ever victorious march. ' Conceit it may seem, but only a partial' list of their achievements will prove that --....-....... .--.,:nc:s.s,:g.,:..4.....-.--f-'-.-- -'Qian-. '-':.xLLL-L.-LA...-W,-,-,...,.. ,-E they have ample cause to believe in them- selves. Football--a new sport, claimed its share of the Junior Class, and was not the captain of this team a Junior? Basket Ball was also not a mere name to the Jun- iors, and two at least of the coming Senior class had very close connection with it. The captain and almost all the star per- formers of the track team were members of that ilustrious class of '2O. Such has been the past record of that gallant band who started out so nobly and so bravely in condition of helpless ver- dancy, commonly called Fresh-manhood, and we shall not worry concerning their future. Continuing in their path of right- eous knowledgeg meeting the torrents and tempestuous floods squarely and surely, they will pursue their purpose to the end. They cannot die, they cannot perish by the wayside, and now the goal of their am- bition is at hand. Friends of Westport dread the coming years when the guiding hand of the class of 1920 will no longer steady the wheel of learning at the school on the hill.
